Chapter 1309: Betrothal Gifts
Situ Zhi’s reaction was too intense, which frightened Situ Yu: "What are you doing? I’m just saying, why are you so nervous?"
Situ Zhi also realized that his reaction was too intense and quickly sat down. However, he still pouted his lips in displeasure and said, "It’s true, everything about you, wasn’t it me who begged Grandmother to help make it happen? And now you dare to say I’m bragging?"
The bridal gifts sent by the War Prince’s Mansion indeed made people envious. When they arrived, the procession carrying the gifts stretched along half of Changan Street. Now the Capital is buzzing with this news. Situtu Qinger was also itching with anticipation. After thinking it over, she realized that in the entire General’s Mansion, only Situ Zhi had the ability to persuade the Old Madam to take Xuexue’s bridal gifts. So, her eyes rolled, and she immediately said to Zhizhi, "Zhizhi, Second Sister believes in your abilities, you can surely persuade Grandmother to take away that little cheap Xuexue’s bridal gifts."
"Second Sister believes in me."
"I do."
"Great, I’ll go to Grandmother now and persuade her to take away Big Sister’s bridal gift. Just you wait."
After speaking, he turned around and skipped out.
Situtu Qinger watched his back, her expression half-smiling.
Situ Dieer was a bit worried: "Second Sister, Zhizhi just went through that situation, shouldn’t he restrain himself a bit? If he goes to slander to Grandmother like this and Father finds out, who knows what might happen again."
"What are you panicking for? With Grandmother around, Zhizhi will be fine." Situtu Qinger was certain that the Old Madam would help Situ Zhi cover it up.
When Situ Zhi eagerly ran to the Refreshing Courtyard and explained the situation to the Old Madam.
