Chapter 22 Self-knowledge
Shui Yu actually didn't like being an official. He still remembered that when he was about ten years old, Shui Zhenan took Shui Yu's knowledge to the school and then asked him what he wanted to do in the future. He replied that he liked gold and silver and wanted to do business, but Shui Zhenan scolded him. It is said that he is willing to degenerate, and he is a scholar, farmer, and merchant. Businessmen have been the lowest status since ancient times. Let him give up this idea quickly, study hard, and become an official in the future.

Since then, Shui Yu has learned that his father's love is control, and the value of his children is to bring him glory, otherwise he will abandon them without mercy, just like his sister.

Two days ago, when he learned that Wang was back from the palace, he couldn't wait to come over to know about his sister. Unexpectedly, he heard his sister's words relayed by his mother, which also refreshed their understanding of Shui Miao and her attitude towards her family.

After hearing those words, he left quietly and returned to his residence to digest the news. He really didn't expect that his sister would hate this family so much, and that his parents would hate his sister so much.

At that time, he immediately thought about how his sister could be so ungrateful. Instead, he was glad that his sister could be freed.

Looking at the scene in front of him now, he also wanted to leave this disappointing home like his sister, but he couldn't. His parents used him, but they also loved him. He couldn't completely ignore the care and love.

This was the first palace banquet that Shui Zhen'an attended after his promotion. Because of Shui Zhen'an's rise in rank, many officials' family members came over to talk to Wang.

"This is Madam's little daughter. She is really smart and cute, and her appearance is also very outstanding."

"Yeah, I'm afraid not many people can match this look."

These words were a bit hateful. Shui Baozhu's appearance was good, but she was only above average. However, Wang and Shui Baozhu were a little carried away and accepted these words in a daze.

"Thank you for your compliment. My daughter is indeed the treasure of my heart."

Madam, who could see clearly, felt a little disdain for Mr. Wang, her expression remained unchanged, and she smiled lightly.

People who didn't have such a broad vision saw that the Shui family was doing well and wanted to marry the Shui family. Now that they saw Shui Baozhu, especially the wife who had a boy of the right age, she immediately had an idea.

"Mrs. Shui, is your little daughter old enough?"

Mrs. Wang was still immersed in the aura brought by Shui Zhenan's promotion. She didn't think about what they meant for a while, and said casually: "It's almost half a year away. I'll give you a haircut in about half a year. I'll post a message for you then. Madams, please Appreciation."

"Of course, your daughter is smart and lovely, so I must be there. Has she ever made a promise to someone else?"

Hearing this, Wang's head suddenly cleared up, and she patted Shui Baozhu's hand gently, "It's not urgent, I can't bear her getting married so soon, and I want her to stay with me again."

The ladies who heard her words all understood the implicit meaning of her words, which was that they looked down on their sons. Suddenly, their faces looked a little bad, and their words were a little perfunctory.

Shui Baozhu was young after all. Although Shui Zhenan and his wife wanted to send her to the palace, they had not done so yet. They were a little nervous when they heard these ladies asking about her marriage. Fortunately, Mrs. Wang was able to smooth over the topic.

Seeing her flustered and nervous look, the ladies felt that this mother-daughter pair was powerful, and even took an excuse to leave.

Shui Baozhu has been looking forward to seeing the emperor again since she entered the hall. She hopes that the emperor can see her best side, and even secretly hopes that the emperor can take the initiative to marry her as his queen.

It has to be said that Shui Baozhu's idea had no self-awareness. Wang gave her the confidence to defeat the whole world.
