The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 374 374. Confession

So he asked out of curiosity, "You admire me? What do you admire me for? I'm not a good-tempered person!"

In Xu Mingyue's view, most young men from aristocratic families like gentle and kind wives who can tolerate everything they have and can swallow their anger for the sake of the family's face.

 But after she broke off the engagement, she understood one thing. Living for oneself was a very comfortable thing, but it was not accepted by the world, so she was really curious about what Feng Jinlin admired about her.

Looking at her expression, Feng Jinlin also became serious.

 Explain your feelings word for word.

"I admire your decisiveness. You will never force anything if it is not suitable. You will break off the engagement when you say so. I admire your free and easy attitude. You never get trapped in sad emotions, but constantly seek your own sky. I admire your talent and learning. You can express obscure things into simple words so that more people can understand the truth; I admire you because you are yourself."

 After hearing these words, Xu Mingyue had to admit that she was shocked.

 What was shocking in the eyes of others turned into advantages and stood out in front of Feng Jinlin's eyes.

 Especially the last sentence, Xu Mingyue was greatly moved.

 Looking at Feng Jinlin's sincerity, she spoke bluntly without being shy.

“I have written down everything the Second Young Master said today. Allow me some time to think about it again, and I will definitely give you an answer.”

 She is not the kind of person who gets entangled, but now she needs to sort out her feelings for Feng Jinlin.

 Have never thought about this before, so I asked her to accept Feng Jinlin rashly, but she couldn't do it.

Feng Jinlin breathed a long sigh of relief and did not refuse directly, but there was still hope.

He then smiled, looked at Xu Mingyue and nodded, "I'll wait for you."

When these words were spoken, the sunlight outside seemed to become a bit dazzling. Although Xu Mingyue pretended to be calm on the face, she was a little panicked in her heart.

I have to say that Feng Jinlin is perfect as a husband.

She has a good family background, outstanding personal abilities, and a bright future. Even her personality and appearance are top-notch. Moreover, it is not easy for such a person to support everything she does. of.

 So, even if Xu Mingyue was not thinking about it anymore, she was a little shaken at this moment.

 But she needs time to think carefully.

Feng Jinlin didn't force it, and he did better than Xiao Tingyi in this regard.

On the way back to the government office, the corners of Feng Jinlin's mouth never drooped. Even passers-by could see that he was in a good mood. They bluntly said that the horse-riding Fengxian Prime Minister was truly a man of heaven.

 In fact, since he came to Jinling City, many people have started to make moves. No one seems to like his family background and ability.

But no one dared to act rashly, because Feng Jinlin had already been engaged, and his daughter would be nothing more than a concubine.

 So you need to do some research before making plans.

Now, the news that Feng Jinlin was not yet engaged leaked out from somewhere, and everyone looked at him with longing in their eyes.

 The first one to bear the brunt is the Cao family.

 The daughter of the Chi family was married and divorced.

There are no girls in the Min family, so they are certainly no rivals.

So the Cao family believed that they were the most suitable candidate, so Cao Sanlang came to the house in person to arrange the marriage for his sister-in-law.

 The girl from the Cao family in the portrait looks like a typical lady from a wealthy family, with delicate features and a soft charm of Jiangnan women. He is slender in stature and is quite accomplished in poetry, calligraphy, music, and chess.

This girl from the Cao family was originally educated to be a concubine in the palace, so the several nurturing mothers accompanying her were all retired from the palace and hired into the palace with huge sums of money.

 So no matter from any aspect, she is the best choice for a wife. The reason why I want to give up the path of becoming a concubine is because Feng Jinlin is too outstanding.

They couldn't get on the high road to reach King Ding, but they felt that there was nothing wrong with Feng Jinlin.

It's a pity that Cao Sanlang enthusiastically promoted his sister there, but Feng Jinlin didn't show any sign.

 I felt strange immediately and asked.

 “How do you feel, Mr. Fengxian Cheng?”

"What?"

Feng Jinlin was thinking about Xu Mingyue, and he basically didn't listen to what Cao Sanlang said for most of the time.

 Such a negligent attitude made Cao Sanlang a little surprised. For a small seventh-rank official, the Cao family was willing to marry off the daughter they had spent so much time training to show him off, but he still had such an expression.

If it weren't for the huge in-law relationship behind him, Cao Sanlang would not swallow his anger here.

 So, he said with suppressed anger.

“What does the Prime Minister of Feng County think of my sister-in-law?”

"fine."

 Cao Sanlang then softened his expression, thinking that he understood the situation.

 But the next sentence made Cao Sanlang furious!

 “But I already have my heart set on something, and I have to live up to the Cao family’s good intentions.”

Cao Sanlang felt that these words were simply excuses, and felt that Feng Jinlin was deliberately making a gesture, so he continued.

"My Cao family has such a precious sister, so if she gets married, we will naturally pay special attention to her. My father once said that a dowry of 10 million taels will be used as private property. As for other fields and shops, it is not a problem. What does Feng County Cheng think? "

Hearing this, anyone else would have expressed joy and wanted to achieve such a good relationship.

Pianfeng Jinlin is a hard-headed man and said with a faint smile.

"The Feng family has strict family rules, which stipulate that the men in the family are not allowed to covet the wife's dowry, so even if Mr. Cao's sister is given a dowry of 10 million taels, it will not be used on me in the end. It is better for Feng not to be jealous."

As soon as these words came out, if Cao Sanlang could not hear the meaning of rejection, then he would be a fool.

“Does the Prime Minister of Feng County look down on us merchants?”

"Young Master Cao is joking. Just these four words of the Jinling Cao family can shock people in the capital. But I really have my heart set on my own, and I will live up to Young Master Cao's good intentions."

"Who does the Prime Minister of Feng County like? He doesn't even like my Cao family?"

Cao Sanlang's mood at the moment is to listen carefully. Apart from the princess and princess, who else in the world can compare with the daughter of his Cao family!

“Master Cao doesn’t need to worry about this. The post will be sent to my house one day, and you can just wait and have a drink.”

After being rejected many times in a row, Cao Sanlang was not a good-tempered person. "Humph, in that case, I will wait for Feng County Cheng's wedding drink. I want to see what kind of daughter can make Feng County Cheng." The county magistrate is obsessed with this."

Ten million taels as a dowry, let alone ordinary people, even the noble families cannot be so wealthy.

Feng Jinlin, who refused to drink wine as a penalty, originally thought of gradually increasing the power of the Cao family in the capital by getting married to him, but unexpectedly, it was all in vain.

So he fluttered his sleeves and left, leaving Feng Jinlin with a cold expression that was half a smile but not a smile.
