Chapter 80 - 74: Satisfaction
Zhao Song wiped his tears after crying and turned his head to see Fu Tinghan, his gaze fixed, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.
The young man was as elegant as a jade tree standing tall, evidently a well-bred scion of a noble family.
Zhao Hanzhang raised her tear-stained eyes, suppressing her emotions, and introduced him, "Fifth Uncle, this is Mr. Fu from the Fu Family."
"So it’s the son-in-law," Zhao Song was even more satisfied, his eyes filled with unmistakable admiration, "The filial piety and kindness of the son-in-law, our Zhao Family will remember at heart and dare not forget."
Fu Tinghan quickly said that it was his duty to do this.
Zhao Song, reluctant to part, moved to the main hall with Zhao Hanzhang to talk, "I’ve heard from Uncle Cheng. Your marriage with Mr. Fu should have taken place after seven days, but it coincided with the chaos in Luoyang. Now, although in the mourning period of March, the marriage can still be arranged."
The reason she was so enthusiastic about this marriage at the beginning was to have a legitimate reason to bind Professor Fu beside her. Since he was now at her side, the wedding was not as urgent.
Zhao Hanzhang politely declined, "Fifth Uncle, the urgent thing is to let Grandfather be laid to rest peacefully."
She said, "Although there is ice to lower the temperature now, after a long time, a smell will inevitably arise. I do not want Grandfather to be so disheveled, so Grandfather should be prioritized at present."
She further said, "Moreover, our luggage was robbed, and our family property was all lost. Grandfather Fu’s life is uncertain, so indeed, there is no heart for the wedding. Let’s just guard the mourning for Grandfather before considering the marriage."
