In the following days, Sang Zhijin did not see Wu Xuchen again. She also waited for Sang Yu.

Sang Yu had just come from the Changping Marquis Mansion. After all, he was the brother of the same mother. Sang Yu's appearance was nothing to say, but his eyebrows were not sharp, but more feminine.

"Little sister." He stood two feet away. The servant behind him was carrying luggage, most of which were books.

Sang Zhijin stepped forward, raised his palms and sleeves, bowed and knelt as usual, and blessed his body.

"Xiyuan has been cleaned up for my brother. It is the quietest place and is convenient for studying. Brother, please go and have a look. Is there anything else you need to add?"

Sang Yu smiled.

"You have always done things safely, so I can trust you."

The nanny's smile was the most obvious. She greeted her diligently and led the servants towards Xiyuan.

As the servants around him left, the smile in Sang Yu's eyes faded a little.

He glanced at Sang Zhijin before speaking.

"I went to express my condolences, and Prince Changping invited me to sit in the study."

The affairs between the two houses are naturally irrelevant, but that prince is very rude.

I just lost my father, and I still have those colorful intestines.

The other party intended to bring Sang Zhijin into his house. He had a wife, so the position he promised was naturally his concubine.

The Marquis of Changping was no good, and his son was even less so.

When he mentioned the matter for a moment, he saw Sang Zhijin biting his lip angrily.

His little sister is beautiful even when she is extremely angry. How many men in this world can resist her? It is no wonder that the prince has no regard for human relations.

Sang Yu hurriedly comforted her: "Girls from the Sang family are not condescended to be concubines, so my brother naturally refused."

As he said that, he sighed sadly, as if he was rejoicing: "It can be seen from this that the foundation of the Hou Mansion is broken. In my opinion, it is a good thing that you are not married. Otherwise, I will be stuck with you for the rest of my life, brother."

install."

It would be a lie to say that I am not touched.

A warm current flowed into Sang Zhijin's heart.

But with Sang Yu's next words, she fell into the ice cellar.

"Before coming, I discussed it with my father and grandfather, and we chose a good candidate. Have you ever heard of the second son of the Ke family?"

Although he is a little worse than the Marquis of Changping, he would rather lack than overdo it.

The father of the second son of the Ke family is the Minister of Rites, and his official position is not low. The Ministry of Rites is in charge of the order of scientific examinations. The examiners in Chunwei are appointed by the emperor, and the senior ministers of the Hanlin Academy set the questions, and are selected by the chief assistant Gu Huai.

Even if he can't steal the question, Chunwei can still take care of him.

Sang Zhijin suddenly smiled, and she raised her eyes to look at Sang Yu.

"But brother, the second young master of the Ke family is as tall as an eight-year-old child."

Sang Yu, however, evaded the important and took the easy way out: "My body, hair and skin are all in the hands of my parents. My little sister must never say such things again."

In the past, Sang Zhijin should have reflected on her lack of education.

But at this time, she just felt that the Sang family was hopeless.

She just walked from one fire pit to another.

Her reluctance was evident. Sang Yu didn't know that the situation was no longer under his control. Instead, he spoke in the same gentle voice as before.

"Of course, I respect my little sister's decision. Naturally, I can't bear to force you."

Listen, what nice words to say. But how hypocritical they are.

Sang Yu was convinced in his heart that his sister would be sensible enough not to force herself.

However, Sang Zhijin disappointed him.

The woman in front of him smiled charmingly.

"If more brothers help you, then I won't agree."

Sang Yu:???

He was stunned for a while and then stiffly changed the subject: "I want to visit Taishi Wu tomorrow. After all, I was lucky enough to get some advice from him when I was young."

Even though he knew that Sang Zhijin's many visits to the Grand Master's Mansion had a beginning and an end. However, he would not go wrong if he had a good relationship.

He will not let go of anything that will help his career.

Sang Zhijin was not surprised.

She was wondering if she could meet Wu Xuchen. So she started to be considerate as usual.

"Brother, I will go with you."

————

The next day, Wu Xuchen was standing on the outskirts, waiting for a carriage in the distance to get closer and closer.

The carriage stopped in front of him, and the attendant lifted the curtain. The woman eagerly got out of the carriage with the help of the girl, and pulled him affectionately to look him up and down: "I have lost weight again."

Wu Xuchen said hello: "Sister-in-law."

Wu Xiao: "I should have come to see you earlier, but my family was busy with affairs, so I kept putting it off."

Speaking of this, she glared at Wu Xuchen again.

"You are busy with official duties, why do you need to come to pick me up? You are not allowed to come next time."

Even though she said this, the smile on her face never diminished.

Wu Xuchen came here because she respected her as her aunt.

Too……

Her eyes flashed, and she turned to look at the girl beside her: "Sister Ting, come here to meet your cousin."

Lu Tiao was too busy to give her blessings: "Cousin."

Wu Xuchen returned the gift.

Wu Xiao looked at the beautiful couple in front of him.

She undoubtedly loved her nephew, but how could she not be selfish?

Wu Xuchen is one of her own, so if her daughter-in-law joins the family, she will naturally not suffer any loss, let alone Wu Xuchen who is so capable.

After receiving her brother's letter, she stayed up all night happily, packed her luggage in a hurry, and came with her daughter.

Wu Xuchen's eyes did not fall on Lu Ting for one more second.

"Sister-in-law, how is your journey going?"

"It's natural. I'm just tired from traveling and traveling."

Wu Xuchen took advantage of the situation and said: "Then go back, my father has been looking forward to you for a long time."

With that said, he stopped talking and invited the two of them to get on the carriage. After doing this, he climbed over the carriage and led the way slowly.

In the carriage, Wu Xiao glanced at her daughter and couldn't help joking: "My cousin, you are becoming more and more stable. My daughter is so beautiful, but she can't help but look at her less."

"mother!"

Lu Tiao's face turned red.

Wu Xiao was satisfied with Wu Xuchen's observance of etiquette, but worried that he was too observant of etiquette.

So, does he like Sister Ting?

Where is the appearance of a marriage proposal here?

Before coming, she was certain that the marriage would work out. After seeing Wu Xuchen's unenthusiastic attitude toward Lu Ting, she felt uneasy. The child was now in a high position and could no longer be manipulated by her elders.

Wu Xiao knew that her daughter was thin-skinned, but she couldn't help but warned her carefully.

"Your aunt died early and left such a son behind. Your uncle is reserved, but he values ​​this son more seriously than anyone else. The same goes for Brother Chen."

Lu Ting wrote it down.

"Your cousin has invaded the officialdom and is the most promising among the younger generation. If he succeeds, we will be considered to be on a high tree."

"Don't be ashamed. Mother can only do this for you. You have to fight for the rest."

The carriage slowly stopped in front of the mansion. Wu Xuchen overturned and dismounted, then went to the carriage without finding anything wrong, and respectfully helped Wu Xiao get out of the carriage.

After thinking about it, he went to help Lu Ting again.

Lu Ting blushed: "Thank you very much, cousin."

When Wu Xuchen saw that she was standing firm, he retracted his hand. After doing this, he turned around and bumped into a line of sight not far away.

Sang Zhijin stood there with an expressionless face. He didn't know how long he stood there.

Wu Xuchen's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Chapter completed!
