Chapter 1768: Knowing Everything Chapter 1768: Knowing Everything Editor: Henyee Translations If he persists in discussing such matters, it could adversely affect Fifth Cousin… Upon hearing these words, Eldest Uncle was overwhelmed with guilt.

He grasped Shao Liulang’s hands, apologizing profusely.

The members of the senior branch of the family were visibly disgusted.

However, Ms.

Fang remained unfazed and interjected sharply.

“Sixth nephew, your scholarly arguments are sound, but alas, Yunduan isn’t present to engage in this discourse.

He would have appreciated your intellect.” “As for myself, while I may lack extensive knowledge, I understand the importance of perseverance.

It seems your parents were overly ambitious, wouldn’t you agree?” “Did they truly believe they could aspire to a match like Young Master Zhao’s family?

We are but humble villagers with scant land and no servants.

One wonders at the audacity of your parents!

Did they not foresee the ridicule?” “It’s laughable how they failed to consider the consequences!

Did they not consult you beforehand?

Surely, you would have dissuaded them.

How could they be so naive, yet you remain astute?” “Hence, there is no cause for resentment on your part.

Our acceptance of this proposal was not an attempt to curry favor but a recognition of Young Master Zhao’s sincerity.

He is a commendable individual, and we believe he will treat Taotao with kindness.

Surely you see the distinction?” “To reject Young Master Zhao outright, regardless of Taotao’s welfare, would be unjust to both him and our family.

Would you not agree?” “Therefore, our conscience is clear; we have not failed your family in any regard.

Sixth nephew, I cannot concede to your criticisms of our family.

Let the gossips chatter if they must!

Who should we fear in speaking our minds?” “Yes, yes!” “Very true!” Upon hearing Ms.

Fang’s remarks, the members of the senior branch of the family straightened their postures, exuding confidence.

Eldest Uncle remained silent, lips pursed, his gaze averted.

Shao Liulang seethed with anger.

It was no surprise that his mother, lacking knowledge, couldn’t hold her own against Elder Aunt.

Her sharp tongue had laid bare everything.

Were it not for his ability to contain his fury, he might have erupted.

“…Yet, our families are connected…” “Indeed.

Shouldn’t your family exercise more prudence and rationality?” Their disparate backgrounds were glaringly evident, yet they plunged headlong into proposing to Young Master Zhao with unabashed enthusiasm.

Fortunately, Young Master Zhao was magnanimous and disregarded their audacity.

Had it been someone else, they would have faced utter humiliation!

It was a display of self-inflicted disgrace.

Ms.

Fang harbored no sympathy for them.

She wasn’t foolish enough to spurn such a favorable match for her daughter.

Shao Liulang flushed with embarrassment and a hint of shame crept into his voice.

“Xiaozhi is also Fifth Cousin’s sister.

She’s not much different from Taotao.

Had Elder Aunt and Uncle advocated for her, Young Master Zhao might not have refused her…”
