Phoenix Hairpin Chapter 43: Attentive

"Fourth sister, when will father and second brother come back?"

It was already noon, and Lu Lin, Lu Fei and his son had not returned to the house. The lively Lu Mingyue couldn't sit still, looked around from time to time, and urged the maid to go to the concierge.

Lu Minghua pursed his lips and smiled: "Five sisters, don't worry. It's already this hour, how could the Shen family not leave lunch?"

If you come to the door to propose marriage, if you come back early, it can be seen that the woman is not willing to marry. Being left for lunch is a good thing.

Lu Mingyu was in a happy mood and laughed: "No need to wait. Let the kitchen prepare the meal!"

It wasn't until afternoon that Lu Lin and his son returned to the mansion.

Lu Mingyu stepped forward, her eyes swept across Lu Lin's face, and then fell on Lu Fei's face. Compared with Lu Lin's confidence, Lu Fei's worries are almost written on his face.

Lu Mingyu smiled and asked about the trip: "Second brother, how about going to Shen's house today?"

Lu Fei smiled calmly and said, "My adoptive father led me to Shen's house, and Shi Lang was very polite to our father and son. Mrs. Shen treated us warmly. However, Mrs. Shen didn't stay long, and Shi Lang asked her to go back inside. the hospital."

This is strange.

When the Lu family came to propose marriage, why wasn't Shi Lang Shen not happy with Mrs. Shen's appearance?

Lu Mingyu couldn't understand for a while, so she asked Lu Fei: "Dad, do you think this marriage can be done?"

Lu Fei raised his eyebrows and answered confidently: "Although Shi Lang didn't answer on the spot, but this is a matter of absolute certainty."

Lu Fei couldn't help laughing and crying: "Where did the adoptive father see that he was sure of everything? I feel that Shi Lang and Mrs. Shen are not very satisfied with me."

"How could this happen." Lu Lin patted his adopted son on the shoulder, almost knocking Lu Fei down on the spot: "You are such an outstanding young man, unless you are blind, you will definitely fall in love. "

Lu Fei: "..."

If only he could have the confidence of his adoptive father.

Lu Mingyu thought to himself, Dad didn't know that there was another young and talented Mr. Fang.

In the previous life, after the Chunwei Palace test, the Shen family and the Fang family decided to marry. Counting the days, there are not many days left. It's really not easy to impress Shen Shilang and his wife in just a few days and get them to change their minds.

Lu Mingyu didn't say these words, but followed his father's voice and said, "Dad is right. Second brother, you have to have confidence in yourself, and more importantly in Sister Shen."

Speaking of his sweetheart, Lu Fei's dark and handsome face flashed a dark red.

Lu Mingyu whispered: "Second brother, come over here, I'll give you an idea. Make sure you get what you want."

Lu Fei immediately put his head close, and after listening to a few words, he nodded again and again, his eyes almost glowing.

…

For the next few days, Lu Fei went to the Shen residence to "check in" every day.

Every time you come to the door, bring some gifts. It's not anything expensive, or a few boxes of delicate snacks, or a few pots of fancy bonsai.

Shen Shilang is going to the yamen as an errand. Several sons of the Shen family are studying and have no time to accompany him every day. Only Mrs. Shen and Shen Lan's mother and daughter greeted Lu Fei.

Mrs. Shen couldn't handle her daughter, so she had to show her face from time to time.

Seeing a pair of little sons and daughters shyly greet each other and talk quietly, eyebrows ~ come ~ eye ~ go, Mrs. Shen is funny and helpless. Soon sent her daughter back to the yard.

Lu Fei wasn't in a hurry, just sat in the inner hall for half a day.

He is not a talkative person, let alone sweet words to make Mrs. Shen happy. However, his eyes are clear, his words are sincere, and he has something to move people's hearts.

When Shilang Shen returned to the mansion, Mrs. Shen sighed, "Master, Second Young Master Lu is here again today."

Shen Shilang: "..."

Shen Shi Lang also had a headache, and touched the top of his head, which was getting sparser day by day: "This bastard!"

Mrs. Shen was a little unhappy when she heard it, and rolled her eyes at her husband: "People are handsome, and they are sincere in their desire to marry, so they are courteous every day. Why are you a bastard?"

Wife Morov.

As soon as Shen Shilang heard it, he knew that the balance in Mrs. Shen's heart had begun to tilt in Lu Fei's side, and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth: "You think Lu Fei is handsome!"

Mrs. Shen glanced at her husband with a smile: "Lu Fei did have a good life, but not as good as King Xingyang."

Shen Shilang: "..."

Mrs. Shen was amused, she stretched out her hand and twisted Shen Shilang's face: "I'm so old, and I still eat this kind of dry vinegar. On that day, didn't I just look at King Xingyang a few more times? You just Babadi drove me back to the inner courtyard. I'm not afraid of being laughed at."

Where can Shen Shilang admit it, the dead duck is stubborn: "There is no such thing. Don't talk nonsense."

Mrs. Shen spat at him with a smile: "It's human nature to want to look at a handsome man once or twice. If I really only looked at the face, why would I have married you back then."

In those days, there were many handsome young people who came to propose marriage. She hasn't chosen him yet.

Shen Shilang proudly straightened his waist: "When I was young, I was also a handsome boy!"

Mrs. Shen thumped and bent over with a smile.

It's a pleasure to play a few words of coloratura when you're old and married.

After joking and laughing for a moment, Mrs. Shen said, "Master, the Lu family is eager to get married. Lu Fei is also a good man. What's more important is that ~IndoMTL.com~ we Lan'er like him in our hearts."

This last point is the most important.

As a pair of parents who love their daughters, their first consideration is their daughter's wishes. What's the point of forcing her to marry into the Fang family if she doesn't want to?

Shen Shi Lang also sighed.

Mrs. Shen whispered again: "Today I was gossiping with Lu Fei, and he told me that he would never take a concubine after getting married."

Shen Shilang suddenly moved.

Taking a concubine and storing beauty is commonplace. Not to mention honorable officials and eunuchs, even those wealthy businessmen or those with some assets would buy some succulent girls to serve them.

It is rare for officials in the capital to live only by guarding their beloved wife, like Shi Lang Shen. Shen Shilang's requirements for his future son-in-law are naturally very high.

"This kid has some merits." Shen Shilang's tone softened a lot.

Mrs. Shen said softly: "Only the sincerity of asking for marriage is already better than Second Young Master Fang."

Second Master Fang came to the capital a few years ago. Before studying behind closed doors, he never went to the Shen residence. This can be understood that the second son of Fang is devoted to preparing for the exam, and it can also be seen that the Fang family intends to marry, but the second son of Fang himself is not enthusiastic about marriage.

In this comparison, the hearts of the husband and wife are biased together.

Shen Shilang was still hesitant: "Lu Fei is a military general, so he must lead troops to fight..."

Mrs. Shen opened her mouth to interrupt Shi Lang Shen: "Lan'er is right. It is quite dangerous for generals to fight. Is there no risk in being an official in the court? How do you know that the second son of Fang will have a smooth career in the future. Safe?"

Shen Shilang scratched his sparse hair and paced back and forth. After a long time, he finally made up his mind: "It's okay! Then let's meet the Lu family's marriage!"

"I will go to the study to write a letter and tell the Fang family this matter euphemistically."
