Chapter 681
"Miss Zhu is polite. I didn't do anything. Even if Miss Zhu didn't tell me the truth, the court would find out the truth and won't let you be wronged. Instead, I would like to thank Miss Zhu for the evidence, otherwise this matter would not have happened. Find out so quickly!"

"Anyway, our Zhu family will never forget the great kindness and virtue of County Lord Rui'an." Zhu Yan naturally couldn't take it seriously after hearing this.If he went directly to report to the official, maybe their family died faster.

Just like no one would have thought that Mr. Gao would be General Li.

The general judge is in charge of food transportation, farmland, water conservancy and litigation, etc., and has the responsibility of supervising the governors of the state capital. If their family directly appeals to the magistrate, this matter must not be hidden from Mr. Gao.

So she couldn't trust any official in this state capital.

If it hadn't been for Shengping Hou's family returning home to celebrate her birthday, she would have been prepared to go to the imperial capital to sue the imperial court.

"Miss Zhu is serious. I'm just talking about this matter, and it's not even a small effort." Xiao'er said frankly.

Zhu Yan smiled, she was able to save her family with just a word of mouth, which shows that County Lord Rui'an is even more capable!When the superior person handles affairs, there are a lot of people to help him with the work without a word of mouth. Does it still need to do everything by himself!
It's just that she didn't say much, she put gratitude in her heart and put it into action is the right way, not by words.

Saying a flower is not as good as doing a real act of gratitude.

At this time, the dishes were served, and the two of them didn't talk anymore.

After the dishes were served, Xiao'er greeted Zhu Yan for dinner, and then explained the reason for her visit: "Yesterday, my mother invited my aunt to your residence to talk about my elder brother's marriage, Miss Zhu must have heard about it."

Zhu Yan was burying her head in eating a piece of chicken, and was startled when she heard that the piece of chicken was stuck in her throat.

Although she guessed the intention of County Lord Rui'an asking her to meet, she never expected that County Lord Rui'an would be so direct!
Isn't this kind of thing very cryptic?Especially in the face of the person involved.

Zhu Yan took a sip of water, and after swallowing the chicken, she blushed and nodded: "I heard mother mention it."

She blushed not because of County Lord Rui'an, but because of her own gaffe, she was really surprised!

Jing Rui, who was drinking tea silently in the cubicle, heard Xiaoer's question so straightforwardly, almost spit out tea in fright, but luckily he held back.

"I don't know what Miss Zhu thinks of my elder brother?" Xiao'er threw another bombshell.

Jing Rui's hands trembled, and the tea in the cup spilled out, wetting his clothes.

Jing Rui looked at the wet clothes and smiled wryly: Fortunately, the cup was not knocked over, otherwise it would stink!
He should sit still!
My sister's question was too scary, even a man like him would be too embarrassed to answer this question!

It's just that he couldn't help pricking up his ears to listen to the movement outside.

With the first question as a foreshadowing, Zhu Yan is ready to swear that Xiaoer's words will not be surprising.

So when she heard Xiaoer's straightforward question again, she became much calmer.

It's just how can she answer this question?
Mr. Shen, Zhilan Yushu, is gentle and refined, is he amazingly talented?

Is Mr. Shen a good man who is one in a million?
This answer is too official.

Zhu Yan thought for a while and whispered, "Young Master Shen is quite good."

The corners of Jing Rui's mouth rose slightly.

After hearing this, Xiao'er asked, "Oh? Where should I go?"

Jing Rui couldn't help covering his face, he said he couldn't eavesdrop any longer!
My sister is so straightforward, Miss Zhu must be blushing!
Where is it?Zhu Yan was startled when she heard this.

Regardless of her family background, appearance, and talent, she was all very good. To be honest, the Shengping Hou Mansion could take a fancy to her as the daughter of a merchant. For her, everything was really good.

Zhu Yan is not a girl raised in a boudoir, she is also a person who often goes out to visit shops and talk business.

Although Xiao'er's question was too explicit, she was not too shy to answer it.

"Everywhere is good." Zhu Yan said sincerely.

After hearing this, Jing Rui felt an indescribable joy in his heart.

"Miss Zhu and my elder brother have only met twice, so why do you think he is good everywhere? In fact, my elder brother is quite rigid sometimes!" Xiao'er silently added while looking at the cubicle intentionally or unintentionally.

The staid Jingrui had the urge to go crazy, is this his own sister?This is not my sister!How can there be a sister who dismantles her elder brother like this?

"Because I only met him twice, I don't know what's wrong with him, so I think everything is good."

Xiaoer: "..."

Well, Xiao'er found herself speechless!
"Then Miss Zhu is happy with this marriage?"

She thought about this matter last night. To her, Shen Jingrui was first-class regardless of his family background, talent, learning, and appearance. She couldn't think of anything that she didn't like.

For her, this is a good marriage that can't be found even with a lantern.

Zhu Yan is also a thick-skinned person, but she is not thick enough to say the word happy, so she nodded and gave a soft "hmm".

"That's great. Tomorrow happens to be a good day. I'll ask my mother to invite a matchmaker to our door. Let's exchange Geng Tie!"

Zhu Yan was a little taken aback, so impatient?
Seeing her surprised expression, Xiao'er explained: "My father has official duties, and he has already been on leave for a month after the year and year. He must rush back to the imperial capital as soon as possible. I hope Miss Zhu doesn't mind. The marriage will be settled soon. But the wedding date is not in a hurry."

Zhu Yan realized that she had lost her composure again. There were too many shocking things, and she was a little overwhelmed.

"To be honest, my father's health is getting worse and worse. I'm afraid it won't last long. If my father... I have to observe mourning for three years. But my family's situation is a bit special, and I can't leave me for a day. I want to wait until my elder brother marries a wife. Get married." Zhu Yan said with some embarrassment.

I just don't know if the Shengpinghou Mansion is willing to wait for three years.

"Let's discuss the wedding date with the elders in the family. It's not urgent. Miss Zhu is a lucky girl, and your father will definitely recover. Let's eat quickly! The food is cold." Xiao'er comforted.

Zhu Yan nodded.

Then the two talked about some other topics, and the meal was quickly finished.

After dinner, Zhu Yan took the lead to leave. If she didn't leave, the people in the cubicle would probably be hungry.

After Zhu Yan left, Xiao'er asked Jing Rui to come out.

"How about it, big brother, do you understand what you want to know? Well, I actually want to ask if you like my big brother? But I was worried that I would scare Miss Zhu away, so I didn't dare to ask. Actually, what big brother wants to know most is This question!"

Jing Rui couldn't help but glared at Xiao'er: "What difference does it make if you ask this question or if you don't!"
