After Grand Scholar Sun sent the doctor away, he told Mrs. Sun, “Darling, since Miaoke’s condition has stabilized, let’s go to the front.
“My sister-in-law and Zhiwu are here. No matter the result, we have to solve this matter as soon as possible.”
“What? They dare come over?” Mrs. Sun immediately stood up and rushed out.
Grand Scholar Sun immediately grabbed her and said as he walked out, “Calm down. We can’t blow this matter up.”
Although Mrs. Sun was still angry after hearing this, she did not act rashly. Instead, she asked, “What do you think we should do next?”
Grand Scholar Sun hesitated momentarily and replied, “In a while, let’s see their reaction first. You can act according to my tone.”
He could tell that his daughter really liked Yan Zhiwu.
For the sake of his daughter’s future happiness, if Yan Zhiwu performed well, he did not mind giving him a push.
Otherwise, he’ll just break their relationship clean.
Mrs. Sun immediately followed after him.
As soon as they entered the central room of the main courtyard, Yan Zhiwu and his mother immediately stood up and asked in unison, “How is Miaoke?”
“Her condition has stabilized for the time being.” After the Grand Scholar Sun finished speaking, he called them to sit down at the head of the table.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Sun sent all the maidservants out and asked her personal servant to guard the door.
Yan Zhiwu did not sit down. Instead, he asked, “Uncle, can I visit Miaoke?”
“It’s not a good time. Let her rest for a while.” Grand Scholar Sun shot a cold glance at him and replied
Yan Zhiwu looked at Mrs. Sun with a look of unwillingness.
However, Mrs. Sun did not have a good impression of him now, so she turned her head away.
Furthermore, before confirming their intentions, she couldn’t risk tarnishing her daughter’s reputation. Otherwise, the entire Sun household would be in jeopardy.
When Yan Zhiwu saw this, no matter how anxious he was, he could only sit down obediently.
When Mrs. Yan saw this, although she was slightly aggrieved, she couldn’t say anything to refute the Sun’s decision.
She looked at Grand Scholar Sun and asked, “Brother-in-law, what do you think of this matter?”
“The imperial edict has already been issued.” The Grand Scholar Sun replied helplessly.
Then, he asked, “What are you guys thinking?”
“What I mean is, it’s good for both our families to pretend that nothing happened.” Mrs. Yan hesitated for a moment and answered.
To be honest, if it weren’t for the imperial edict, she would have been quite satisfied with Sun Miaoke as her daughter-in-law. However, it was too late, so it was better to separate their relationships as soon as possible.
Otherwise, if this issue continued, both sides would suffer, and it might even affect the future of the two families.
“That’s right. I think so too.” Grand Scholar Sun was a little embarra.s.sed when he heard this, but he still nodded his head in agreement.
“I don’t agree.” Yan Zhiwu stated.
“What can you do? Throw away your future and go to the Emperor to plead for mercy?” Grand Scholar Sun raised his head and looked straight at him with sharp eyes.
If he dared do that, Grand Scholar Sun would dare to risk it for his daughter’s happiness. He was afraid that Yan Zhiwu did not have the courage and did not actually care that much about his daughter.
“I…” Yan Zhiwu was about to speak when Mrs. Yan immediately stopped him.
“No, if you make a scene in front of the Emperor, you will lose your life.”
The Grand Scholar Sun didn’t reply but looked at Yan Zhiwu silently.
Even Mrs. Sun looked at Yan Zhiwu expectantly because this was the only way for the young couple to be together openly.
For a moment, Yan Zhiwu became the center of attention in the room..
