After a moment of silence.
The head of the Zhao Family said with a haggard face, "I know the fate of a woman in the family, and I feel guilty. But this is the Zhao Family, and this is what every big family is going through and will go through in the future, so … I can't do anything!"
At this point, Zhao Yu 'er and Zhao Ru' er's eyes reddened, and their hearts were in turmoil. Hearing their father's words, they knew that the family was going to do something against their will again.
But, this was the tragedy of a clan.
Under the bright and beautiful exterior, what was hidden was helplessness, filthiness, shamelessness, benefits, and exploitation!
This was a clan.
They didn't know that they would always fantasize about meeting the person they were destined to meet, and that he would take them away from everything, and then find a mountain to live in seclusion for the rest of their lives.
But …
"Father!"
"What do you need us to do?"
Zhao Yu 'er held back the tears that were about to fall from her eyes and asked calmly.
She also wanted to escape from this reality, but what else could she do? The only thing waiting for her was to accept her fate. At this moment, Yu 'er had already handed her fate to the heavens!
The head of the Zhao Family paused for a moment and said with a melancholy face, "Yu 'er, the family is now in a life and death situation. I originally wanted to marry you to another family, but I can't bear to do so. So, after much consideration, I've decided to let the two of you find Zhang Feng again."
At this moment, the head of the Zhao Family had no other choice. He could only let Yu 'er and Ru' er find Zhang Feng and make a final gamble. Otherwise, what awaited the family was the wrath of the Gao Family. If they offended the Gao Family, the Zhao Family would never have a day of peace. Rather than that, it was better to find Zhang Feng again.
One had to know that Zhang Feng was backed by the imperial court, and with Zhang Feng's protection, the Zhao Family could at least protect themselves. Now that the situation had deteriorated, they could only let the two of them see Zhang Feng's attitude before making a decision.
What was their father thinking? Could it be that it was because of the auction? At that time, Zhao Yu 'er was also present. She witnessed with her own eyes how several great clans were competing with each other for Liu Li. Moreover, the Wang Clan and Wu Clan had gambled their family assets. Could it be that this matter had implicated the Zhao Clan, causing the Gao Clan to be dissatisfied? Zhao Yu' er was also present at the auction.
Therefore, her father's decision this time might be because the Zhao family didn't care about the Gao family's reputation and offended them. Therefore, he wanted them to seek protection from Zhang Feng so that the Zhao family could have a breather.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu 'er and Zhao Ru' er nodded in agreement and returned to their rooms.
The Patriarch of the Zhao Family looked at the two girls leaving, his heart filled with helplessness. If it wasn't for the fact that he had no other choice, why would he send his daughter away? He sighed deeply.
At the same time, in the Wu's living room.
The Patriarch of the Wu's sat at the head of the table with a frown, as if he was thinking about something.
They didn't go to the auction this time, but they heard some news. It was said that a few great clans were competing with each other for the same thing. The Wang Clan even gambled their family assets. Not only that, the Wu Clan did the same as the Wang Clan. Both clans gambled their family assets to compete for the Liu Li, but in the end, it was still won by the Wu Clan.
It should be known that although the Liu Li was precious, it wasn't to the extent that a few great clans were competing for it. Even the Gao Clan was competing for it.
Why did Zhang Feng do this? What was the purpose of causing a few great clans to compete for it? Could it be that he had some purpose?
The Patriarch of the Wu's thought more and more inconceivable. He couldn't help but sigh, "What do you think of this matter?"
Everyone fell into deep thought. At this moment, a person below stood up and said, "Patriarch, to be able to cause a few great clans to compete for it, the value of the Liu Li is definitely extremely precious. Our Wu's didn't go to the auction this time. Will that cause Zhang Feng to be dissatisfied?"
The Patriarch of the Wu's frowned slightly. He couldn't help but think that they had to be daring. One should know that in this auction, those people with the Five Surnames and Seven Desires were secretly watching. If they went and were known by those people, wouldn't that be courting death?
Those people with the Five Surnames and Seven Desires could destroy the Wu's in minutes, so they couldn't be careless.
However, when this Zhang Feng first came to Jiangnan, there were a thousand guards behind him. It seemed that they were all retired soldiers. Furthermore, that Zhang Feng had Yuchi Gong by his side. What should they do? They couldn't offend the Five Surnames and Seven Desires and Zhang Feng. Was there no foolproof plan?
Thinking of this, the Patriarch of the Wu's felt a headache. With a worried expression, he couldn't help but ask, "Then do you have any solutions?"
Everyone fell into silence.
At this moment, another person stood up and said, "Patriarch, isn't Man 'er in contact with that Zhang Feng? Why don't we let Man' er go and find Zhang Feng? Perhaps our Wu's can also get involved in this glaze business. "
The Patriarch of the Wu's changed his mind. That's right. Wasn't Man 'er on good terms with Zhang Feng? If she went to find Zhang Feng, there might be a way to ease the situation. Otherwise, how could the Wu's survive? They couldn't offend either side. It seemed that this was a good idea.
The Patriarch of the Wu's nodded and said, "Then you go and tell Man 'er about this. At present, this is the only way."
At present, the Wu's didn't dare to offend anyone. If they offended one side, what awaited them was destruction. Therefore, they could only seek survival between the cracks of Zhang Feng and the Five Surnames and Seven Desires. Therefore, sending Man 'er over now was a show of sincerity from the Wu's. If something happened to Man' er and Zhang Feng, then it couldn't be better.
Thinking of this, the Patriarch of the Wu's finally felt a trace of comfort in his heart.
