Chapter 552 - 550 Welcoming the Bride
"I heard that Brother Wu is planning to go to the capital next year to take the imperial exams. He won’t settle his heart to study if we don’t allow him to fulfill this wish. If Benefactor Wu trusts us and can make up his mind, he might as well consider my advice."
"Brother Wu has indeed agreed to let Wu Zhongbao go. He likes to go hunting in the mountains, doesn’t he? After spring starts next year, I can take Wu Zhongbao into the mountains. By that time, staying in the mountains with the hunters from Chongzi Gou for ten days or half a month, after enduring hardship, he will naturally realize the comfort of being at home."
Wang Yongzhu could see that Wu Zhongbao might not truly enjoy hunting. Perhaps it was nothing more than delayed rebellion.
If he really went to the mountains and followed the hunters around, being pampered as the prized son of the Wu Family from birth, could he endure such hardship?
"To take ten thousand steps back, if Wu Zhongbao is genuinely passionate about martial arts and still remembers his original intention after a trip to the mountains, with his heart set on taking the military examination. Then Benefactor Wu would also have to consider it, wouldn’t he?"
After Wang Yongzhu finished proposing her idea, Benefactor Wu really took it to heart, "I will consider your suggestion further."
Meanwhile, someone called for Wu Zhongbao to come over, and after listening to Wu Zhongbao’s complaints for a while, they couldn’t help but cover their ears to bid farewell.
When Steward Lu heard that the two were delivering New Year’s gifts, he hurriedly came out to greet them personally.
After exchanging pleasantries, Wang Yongzhu inquired about Wang Yongan’s situation before taking her leave.
Once they left the Lu household, the two checked the list of items to purchase. With the New Year approaching, many people were shopping, especially a long queue in front of the store selling pastries.
The two were not in a hurry and waited patiently in line.
