Chapter 376: Yanlu Rous Plan (2) (1/2)

Keisa and Shila were in front of them while they were having an argument and couldn't help but wryly smile. It looked like there were oppositions on the other side of the panel. It was natural, after all, marriage was a very serious matter for their offsprings and parents itself.

In actuality, Yanlu Rou really didn't have the authority to be in control who Jin Rou would marry. It was the child's life, right? It should be taken care of by the child himself and they would just either give their approval and disapproval in the matter.

But Yanlu Rou chose to go deeper than required and even chose the partner herself, all for the sake of benefits. For Xu Rou and Fan Rou, it was crossing the line. Not to mention, their mother didn't say anything about this in the past.

”Mother, you are being a calculating person even for your grandchild?” Fan Rou's words were turning sharp and asked, ”I really don't care about any other matters but you are now overstepping your boundaries.”

”Overstepping my boundaries?” Yanlu Rou coldly retorted, ”If I'm doing this for myself, then yes. However, I'm just thinking of the future prospects of the family. What, you think that you can hold off those old bastards for long?”

”...” Fan Rou didn't know what to say. Indeed, this marriage pact would give them an additional boost of power and authority, and Jin Rou's position would be firmly stabilized. Those old bastards Yanlu Rou was talking about were people from the Court Council.

For sure, those people would try to pull Jin Rou down when they had the chance. They always acted that way, and that would never change unless they stood on a firm land.

”I get where are you coming from, Mother.” Xu Rou's calm voice sounded and said, ”However, it is still up to Jin'er whether he will accept the marriage or not. He is still too young for this, and so Syni. Isn't even too early for them to get married?”

What Xu Rou wanted to say, was that they should take their time. The two children were still too young to get married and whatsoever. The two needed to get to know each other first before entering that stage. After all, Xu Rou didn't want his son to enter a world where he couldn't find happiness.

Xu Rou thought that the Su would agree with her words. However, to her surprise, it wasn't that way.

”Miss Xu, you don't have to worry about anything. Our Syni has decided to marry your son years ago. So on our side, there is no longer any problem.” Keisa Su chuckled and said.

”Yes, Miss Xu. Our daughter has set her lovely eyes on Jin'er for a long time now.” Shila Su supported his wife's claim.

”...” Xu Rou didn't expect that things had already escalated to this point. Thus, she was utterly speechless.

Seeing this unfold, Yanlu Rou nodded in satisfaction and said, ”You don't have to worry about anything, Xu. This is for the best for Jin'er, and as well as our family. Isn't a win-win situation?”

”Win-win situation, hah.” Fan Rou sighed loudly and asked, ”Mother, does Jin'er know this?”

”...” Yanlu Rou didn't expect this question. Her expression already told Fan Rou the answer.
