After traveling through time, the adults were completely in my hands

In Daqing, the news that General Pei had already made his engagement was soon reported back to the capital.

In Duke Dingguo's mansion, Xu's mood has become increasingly anxious in the past few days.

Ever since hearing the news that Pei Shaofeng had already made an engagement, Xu Shi has been unable to eat or sleep well these past few days, and she is extremely anxious.

"Madam, don't be too anxious. Isn't it a matter of time before the Second Young Master and Miss Jindou get married?" Nanny Chen saw how anxious and irritated Xu had been these past few days, and she couldn't help but comfort her.

"How can I not be anxious?" Xu's eyebrows were twisted together with worry. "When his eldest brother was his age, he already had two children. Look around the whole capital, there are no one as old as him who is still unmarried. How can we find another one?"

"Now, even General Pei who is far away in southern Xinjiang has a marriage contract, but look at these two children, there is still no sign of them getting married." After saying this, Xu couldn't help sighing in anxiety.

"Yes, at the age of the Second Young Master, he should indeed get married earlier. However, with his personality, I'm afraid he won't take the initiative to tell Miss Jindou." Nanny Chen also became a little worried.

"My youngest son has a cold personality. If you ask him to take the initiative to tell a girl that he likes her, forget it," said Mrs. Xu, shaking her head.

"Then... Madam, how about you think of a solution with the golden beans?" Nanny Chen lowered her head and thought for a while, then suddenly made a suggestion to Xu.

"Think of a way to deal with the golden beans?" Xu looked up at Nanny Chen, not understanding what she meant.

"Madam, why don't you do this..." Nanny Chen put her mouth close to Xu's ear and whispered softly.

In the old lady's room, Jindou was massaging her shoulders while asking, "Grandma, how are you? Are you feeling comfortable?"

"Comfortable, comfortable," the old lady laughed heartily, and said with satisfaction, "Grandma, my shoulder has been hurting for several years. Since you massaged me a few times, it has never hurt again. Grandma, I really have to thank you."

"You're welcome, you're welcome, grandma. This is what I should do." Jindou stood behind the old lady and said repeatedly.

"Grandma, if you feel uncomfortable anywhere in the future, you must tell me. I promise to cure you with medicine." After thinking for a while, Jindou spoke again.

"Okay, okay," the old lady smiled and agreed.

"Madam, your granddaughter is so filial," Madam Liu, who served the old lady personally, couldn't help but praise her.

"Yes," the old lady nodded, turned sideways, took one of Jindou's hands, and pulled Jindou in front of her.

"Jindou," the old lady said, looking at Jindou, "you are a girl and you will eventually get married. Grandma feels very sad when she thinks that you will leave her in the future."

"Grandma, don't worry." Upon hearing the old lady's words, Jindou quickly patted his chest and promised, "I have no plans to get married in my lifetime. I will always be with you."

"Silly child, what are you talking about?" the old lady looked at Jindou and scolded him.

"Old Madam, if you don't want your granddaughter to leave, that's easy to do." Aunt Liu, who was standing by, smiled and said, "If you turn your granddaughter into your granddaughter-in-law, she can stay with you forever, right?"

"That's right, that's right, that's what I have in mind." The old lady looked at Jindou with a smile, took Jindou's hand and said, "Jindou, you should be my granddaughter-in-law. That way, you won't have to leave me."

To be the grandson's wife? With whom? With my second brother? How could my second brother like me?

Jindou was startled and hurriedly shook his head, "No, no, Grandma, this won't do. How could my second brother be interested in me?"

"Jindou, let grandma see that your second brother likes you. You can rest assured," the old lady said with a smile looking at Jindou.

Second brother likes me? No way, Jindou shook his head. Second brother thinks highly of me, but that is definitely not love. With me like this, how could Second Brother like me?

"Jindou," the old lady was still saying, "your second brother has been like this for so many years, and I haven't seen him fall in love with any girl. Tell me, he's already this old. If he doesn't get married, won't he be single for the rest of his life?"

At this point, the old lady began to feel sad again: "Grandma's greatest wish now is to see your second brother get married. I don't know when this wish of yours will come true."

Jindou looked at the old lady's sad expression, and thought of the scene when he persuaded Wei Qing yesterday, and he couldn't help but feel angry with Wei Qing again.

This second brother is not in a hurry at all about his own life-long event. Look, he is not in a hurry, but these old people are so anxious.

After returning from the old lady, Jindou walked into his own yard. Just as he was about to sit on the stone bench to rest, he saw Xu walking in, supported by Nanny Chen.

When "Mother" Jindou saw this, she quickly called out and went forward to greet her.

After the greetings, Xu pulled Jindou to sit down.

"Jindou!" Xu called out, holding Jindou's hand and asking, "What do you think of your second brother?"

Huh? Jindou was stunned. Why did all these people mention his second brother to him today?

Without waiting for Jindou's reply, Xu continued, "Jindou, look, even General Pei is already engaged, but your second brother is still single at his age."

After a pause, Xu patted Jindou's hand and said, "Jindou, if you don't mind your second brother, then you can be my daughter-in-law."

Well, what's wrong with these two people today? We can be his daughter-in-law, but the key is that my second brother has to be willing.

Thinking of this, Jindou quickly said, "Mother, it's not that I don't want to, the key is my second brother, he definitely doesn't want to."

How could my second brother like me with my looks, Jindou muttered to himself.

"So you agree?" Upon hearing Jindou's answer, Xu immediately became happy. "Child, don't worry about your second brother. He already has you in his heart."

How could it be possible that Second Brother has feelings for me! Are these people, seeing me and Second Brother together every day, creating an illusion that Second Brother likes me?

Oh my, how is this possible? If I hadn't reacted quickly enough, I would have lost my life countless times at the hands of my second brother's sword. How could my second brother like me? Jindou complained wildly in his heart.

"Jindou," Xu said, holding Jindou's hand, suddenly feeling a little sad. "If you stay with me, I won't let you get married in the future. Your second brother is so old, and he still doesn't have a girl he likes."

"Why don't you just be my daughter-in-law? That way, I won't have to worry about you getting married, and I won't have to worry about your second brother either."
