Ms. Lu stepped forward, took her daughter's hand, led her into the house, and let her sit down. She asked her again the question from before: "Linglong, do you truly wish to marry Gu Dexing? His family's situation is not as good as the Gu Jin'an's, and he isn't as promising as Gu Jin'an. Even if he becomes a Scholar, whether he can become a scholar in the future is still uncertain."
She also carefully talked about the situation of Gu Dexing's family and Mrs. Chen.
"You saw what kind of person that Aunt Gu is. She might not be very bad, but she's too shrewd. If you marry there, you'll have to deal with her for decades, and she's an elder. If she bullies you, you'll have to endure it."
In Great Chu, there is no shortage of nieces-in-law being mistreated by cruel aunts for a lifetime, living bitterly.
Xu Zhong listened, laughed softly, and nodded, replying to Ms. Lu's previous question: "Mother, I really am willing to marry Gu Dexing; he is a good choice."
