A house full of cannon fodder reads my mind. Who knows? I’m going crazy.
Chapter 64 Exploring the Wind
The next day, Chief Shen received an important task from Mrs. Shen, asking him to find out what Mr. Xu had said, and if he was willing, he could arrange for a matchmaker to visit.
If they come rashly, the Xu family is unwilling, but due to the Shen family's family background, they have to nod. Isn't this bullying others?
Getting married?
Of course, I have to agree with you.
After Shen Shoufu went down to court, he saw that nothing happened, so he went to see Mr. Xu.
Mr. Xu, a man who could only go to court on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, was so flattered that he could be favored by Shen Shoufu. His thoughts were spinning, thinking that he had done nothing wrong?
And the smile on Shen Shoufu's face didn't seem to be a bad thing.
Mr. Xu raised his hand and said, "I have met you, sir."
Shen Shoufu waved his hand and said, "I heard that Mr. Xu's daughter Hui Zhilanxin is dignified and virtuous. Do you want to marry her?"
Mr. Xu's eyes lit up, and he was indeed here for his daughter. Apart from having a few daughters in his family, he didn't seem to have anything worthy of others' attention.
Especially the eldest daughter. Ever since she came back from the banquet that day, many people came here admiring her and wanted to marry her.
Unexpectedly, the dark, fat and ugly daughter with a birthmark on her face would be so outstanding.
Thinking about it, her mother was beautiful. If she hadn't fallen in love with her mother's beauty, how could she have married a merchant girl?
"Not yet." Mr. Xu clenched his fists excitedly. If he could marry Shen Shoufu, his old Xu family would be prosperous.
"My eldest son hasn't even gotten married yet!" Shen Shoufu pointed out with a smile: "If Mr. Xu is fine, would you like to have tea with us tomorrow?"
"Okay!" Mr. Xu nodded repeatedly.
When Shen Shoufu left, he added: "Oh, by the way, at the last banquet, my Yanbao would like to thank the eldest daughter of the Xu family for taking care of him. That child likes your eldest daughter very much."
Mr. Xu knew what Shen Shoufu meant.
Mr. Xu must have made a mistake. He reminded him that the Shen family was interested in their eldest daughter, Xu Zhimo, not other daughters. He asked him to go back and not to cause unnecessary trouble if he asked the wrong questions.
Mr. Xu nodded, thinking that the daughter he thought he was going to hit turned out to be a fragrant steamed bun.
Unlike other people who came to ask for marriage, Shen Shoufu's family was high up in the Xu family.
How could Mr. Xu not seize such a good marriage?
That day, when Mr. Xu returned home, he told Mrs. Xu: "Shoufu Shen actually fell in love with a girl from the Xu family. Today I will test my words and wait for my answer tomorrow. She is the Shen family, the emperor's favorite."
Especially in the past few months, the emperor has paid more and more attention to Shen Shoufu. How many people are jealous!
That Mr. Shen, the husband and son-in-law in many people's hearts, actually condescended to come to talk to me.
Mr. Xu almost drifted off.
Mrs. Xu excitedly grabbed his hand: "Great, why didn't you agree to such a good thing on the spot? When Zhirong marries to Shen Shoufu's family, she can help her younger brothers and sisters in the future. This is a gift from heaven."
Xu Zhirong, who happened to be walking over, heard her mother's words and her heart exploded.
Her eyes widened in disbelief, what did she hear?
The Shen family?
Master Xiao Shen wants to marry her?
God, how could she be worthy enough to be favored by Mr. Xiao Shen?
Thinking of the gentle breeze and the bright moon, the gentle and graceful Little Shen, Xu Zhirong's heart skipped a beat, and her whole body was shaking with excitement. Countless pictures flashed through her mind. She even gave birth to several children for Little Shen.
The whole picture of a winner in a happy life made her blush with embarrassment.
Just as she was getting excited, she heard her father say, "It's not Zhirong."
Mrs. Xu: "?"
Xu Zhirong: "???"
Mrs. Xu had a bad premonition and looked at Mr. Xu who hesitated and said, "Who else could it be if it wasn't Zhi Rong?"
Could it be that ugly guy Zhimo?
As long as people are not blind, they will not fall in love with her, right?
How could that bitch be so lucky?
Is she worthy?
Xu Zhirong didn't wait for Mr. Xu to speak. She rushed in excitedly: "Mom and dad, I'm going to marry you. I want to marry Mr. Xiao Shen. I will never marry him unless I marry him in this life!"
At the banquet a few days ago, the man with the mole said that he was interested in me and wanted to come to propose marriage. Who was he? He was worthy. He looked like a pig. How dare he say anything?
Even if she were to get married, she would still be an outstanding man like Master Xiao Shen.
Otherwise, she would rather not marry.
Mrs. Xu refused to give up: "Did the master hear wrongly? Their family said the person they were marrying was Zhirong?"
Xu Zhirong nodded affirmatively: "Yes, yes, it's me. It can't be anyone else. Master Xiao Shen has seen his daughter. He must want to marry her. Father, please promise him."
Mr. Xu could not tell what the mother and daughter were thinking. He also hoped that it was the younger daughter. This was not because he was afraid that he would make a mistake. He also specifically reminded her that it was the eldest daughter, Xu, not the second daughter.
Mr. Xu couldn't bear to look at Xu Zhirong, and one look made her collapse: "Why, I won't agree, dad, please, let me marry into the Shen family, I can replace the eldest sister, woo woo woo!"
Mrs. Xu patted her shoulder comfortingly and begged: "Master..."
Master Xu was in a dilemma: "It's not me who wants to marry you. I can control it. It's the eldest sister that I want to marry, not you. Stop for a moment and I'll ask your eldest sister what she wants later."
"As for you, ask your mother to find a good match for you, and the Shen family won't even think about it. They don't like you." Mr. Xu had a headache from crying, so he took the opportunity to leave for some quiet time.
Xu Zhirong broke down and cried: "Mom, help me, she can marry into the Shen family, how can she be a good match? I should be the one."
Mrs. Xu was also unbalanced. How could she be worthy of that ugly guy?
She should marry a romantic, gambling, and unpromising man and be punished for the rest of her life, otherwise it would be difficult to eliminate the resentment in her heart.
If that bitch hadn't fought for love back then, how could she have become the step-mother? She should have been the upright wife of the Xu family, not the stepmother.
She would never be able to swallow this breath for the rest of her life.
Now, that ugly guy actually wants to get past his own daughter.
She couldn't even think about it.
Xu Zhimo was looking at medical skills in the yard. She caught a cold in the water that night and felt a little uncomfortable. She took medicine and is much better now, but she still has a little cough and runny nose.
After she was detoxified, she became a little weak and caught cold easily.
That day, Riming knew that the water was cold and she would get sick if she was not careful, so she jumped in without hesitation.
Even though he was drinking bowls of soup and medicine now, Xu Zhimo never regretted saving anyone.
Ayu came in a hurry: "Miss, the master is here."
Xu Zhimo collected the medical books, straightened her hair and clothes, and went out to greet him: "Why are you here, dad?"
"I heard that you are feeling a little unwell. Dad, come here and take a look." Mr. Xu looked at his daughter, who was pale and looked haggard without makeup. Her features were very much like her mother's, and she had a pair of moving eyes.
Her nose is tall and stylish like mine, her mouth is like her mother's, with her small cherry mouth, and her ears are like hers. She has perfectly inherited the advantages of her parents. After raising her for more than ten years, I realized that this daughter is not ugly at all.
No wonder the Shen family took a fancy to him, he himself thought he looked good.
"Shen Shoufu said a few words to dad today." Mr. Xu didn't mince words. He had never been close to his daughter, mainly because the birthmark she gave birth to was so ugly.
I didn’t expect that birthmark could be removed.
It is said to be fetal poison and it will be cured once it is cured.
She didn't know where she got the medicine, but within a few days of drinking it, she seemed to be completely transformed. The birthmarks on her face dissipated little by little, and she turned into the beautiful woman she is now, as beautiful as a flower, with picturesque features.
Xu Zhimo's heart tightened. Shen Junfeng wouldn't come, right?
