Zhao Siqing didn't say anything when she thought of old Madam Huo.
She and Old Madam Huo hadn't seen each other since the engagement party ended on bad terms.
However, whether she accepted it or not, she didn't know what old Madam Huo's attitude would be like now that there was an additional layer of the Gu family's identity.
"What did you say? ''Afterr a while,ZhaooSiqingg asked softly.
"The marriage, " Huo Jingchen said in a deep voice.
Hearing this, Zhao Siqing did not ask further. She thought that there must be some good news at least.
After more than half an hour, the car slowly drove into the huo family's old mansion.
The night was gradually getting darker. The courtyard was brightly lit, as brilliant as a castle.
All kinds of rare flowers were blooming in the garden. The Fountain was spraying a continuous stream of water. Occasionally, a few squirrels could be seen running around the courtyard. It was as beautiful as a fairy tale.
"Young Master, Young Madam, please, the old madam has been waiting inside for a long time, " the housekeeper, whom she had met once, said gently and then led the way.
Listening to the way he addressed her, Zhao Siqing basically had an answer in her heart.
It seemed that the old Madam Huo had indeed changed her mind because of her status as the Gu family. Zhao Siqing did not know whether it was a blessing or a curse.
With the housekeeper leading the way, a few minutes later, Zhao Siqing and Huo Jingchen appeared in the dining hall of the old house.
The dining hall was decorated in a European style. Because the fireplace was not lit due to the hot weather, there were many world-famous paintings hanging on the walls. The shelves and wine cabinets at the side were dazzling.
In the middle of the dining hall was a long table that was seven to eight meters long. This time, both sides of the long table were filled with people from the Huo family. It was more complete than what Zhao Siqing saw when she attended old Madam Huo's birthday banquet last time.
"You're back. " Old Madam's gaze swept past the two of them, and then she said in a deep voice, "sit down. "
The Butler immediately turned to the servants and said, "let's start the dishes. "
Soon, seven or eight servants in aprons came in one after another, carrying plates covered with copper hats, and began to lay out the dishes.
Zhao Siqing had never seen such a situation, but she did feel that the huo family's life was indeed like that of an ancient emperor.
"since you're the daughter of the Gu family, then I won't object to your marriage to Jing Chen. Speaking of which, this is also fate between the two of you. In the future, you should love each other, respect each other, and support each other,"the old Madam Huo looked at the two of them and said Her voice was much gentler than before, and there was a touch of kindness from the elders.
Zhao Siqing looked at old Madam Huo and said gently, "thank you, old Madam, for your help. "
Although she knew that old Madam Huo might not be sincere, if she could live with her face, Zhao Siqing did not want to make things difficult for herself.
"The last engagement banquet that the huo family attended was really rare, and it was even more muddled by that blind thing. I think we should choose another good day and hire the elders of both parties to come and re-marry you. I will find a master to count it as an auspicious day for the two of you. Let's settle the marriage as soon as possible. What do you think? " Old Madam Huo looked at Zhao Siqing She asked patiently.
Zhao Siqing smiled lightly. She felt that old Madam Huo was turning against her even faster than flipping through a book. It was as if she wasn't the one who caused a Ruckus at the engagement party that day.
However, old Madam Huo couldn't be more calm. Her gaze towards Zhao Siqing was filled with love for the younger generation.
Zhao Siqing's gaze was indifferent as she said gently, "then I'll have to trouble you, old Madam. "
Old Madam Huo was obviously very satisfied with Zhao Siqing's tactfulness. She nodded and thought to herself, 'as expected, Zhao Siqing is the one who came out of the family. She knows her manners and knows when to advance and retreat appropriately. She is indeed much better than Gu Anhui. '.
