Seeing that her father and brother were going to the Lu family to find Lu Shaoyuan desperately, Shen Ningning stamped her feet anxiously.

“Dad, brother, second stinky brother, third brother, second uncle, what are you doing!”

She pursed her red lips and said, "I really want to marry Lu Shaoyuan. He didn't force me. Instead, I said it first."

 Xie Mingan simply couldn't bear such a blow.

"Sister! You, you, you, you are totally unreasonable. Even if you like him, shouldn't you also like the prince?"

Shen Ningning was touched by the sadness in her heart, her face darkened, and she turned away.

“Second Brother, if you say this, you think Lu Shaoyuan is not as good as your elder brother.”

Xie Mingan thought she was angry, so he quickly stepped forward to comfort her: "Second brother, that's not what I meant. It's just that it was too sudden."

Xie Suzhi looked at his daughter: "Ning Ning, do you really understand what getting married means?"

Shen Ningning sighed: "Of course I know that marriage is like when mother marries father. Two people who like each other will live in harmony after marriage and raise children together."

 After she said this, all the men in the Xie family froze.

Their baby Ning Ning actually fantasizes about giving birth to a child for Lu Shaoyuan.

 Do you really like it?

Xie Mingan couldn't accept it: "Ning Ning, you... that's it! I don't care about this matter. You can discuss it with your father and the others."

 After saying that, he picked up his feet and left.

 He had to go to Dali Temple to torture a few prisoners in order to calm down the turmoil in his heart.

 Shen Ningning sat on the chair.

She said seriously: "Lu Shaoyuan and I have already discussed it. If I don't adapt to living with him after marriage, I can still move back and live with you, dad."

Xie Mingxu frowned: "Then what is the meaning of your marriage?"

“Who said couples must live together? He respects me, so I can do whatever I want.”

Xie Suzhi's face softened a little, but he still tightened his mouth.

 “What did the Lu family say?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the servant at the door came quickly: "Master! Second Master! The Lu family arranged for a matchmaker to come to the door with a betrothal gift!"

 All the men in the Xie family frowned at the same time, their expressions even colder.

"So anxious? We haven't agreed yet." After Xu Jingxi finished speaking, he asked the servants to drive the matchmaker back first.

Unexpectedly, Shen Ningning stood up quickly: "Let the matchmaker come in!"

Xie Suzhi and others looked at her, and saw on the girl's bright white face that she seemed to be happy to marry Lu Shaoyuan immediately.

Seeing her looking forward to it, Xie Suzhi's heart tingled slightly.

His wife left early, and he already owed his daughter a lot. If he ignored her feelings now, he would probably break her heart.

Thinking of this, Xie Suzhi sighed: "Okay, let the matchmaker come in."

Xie Mingxu was anxious: "Father!"

 Xie Suzhi raised his hand to stop his next words.

 When the matchmaker came in beaming with joy, she was almost frightened by the momentum in the hall and did not dare to cross the threshold.

I saw Prime Minister Xie and Second Master Xie, sitting on the left and right in the high hall. The picture behind them was of a tiger descending from the mountain, which was very intimidating.

 Xie Mingxu and Xu Jingxi stood behind their fathers respectively.

 The four men of the Xie family, except for Xie Ming'an who was not there, all had cold and cold eyes.

  The matchmaker has been a matchmaker for half her life, and she is always happy when she goes to other people's homes.

This is the first time I have visited the house and saw that the woman’s mother-in-law’s family is so unwelcome to her.

Shen Ningning stepped forward: "Matchmaker, please sit down."

The matchmaker then calmed down and said hello with a dry smile. She didn't dare to sit down, but she quickly told her the purpose of coming.

"Thank you, Sir. Madam Meng arranged for me to come here. For the sake of the happy marriage between the second young master of the Lu family and the princess, you see, all the gifts I brought this time were placed in the yard. If your family is also interested, I will I will go back to Mrs. Meng now, and she can officially be hired."

Shen Ningning raised her eyes and looked at the boxes full of boxes in the yard.

The spacious yard has almost been filled up, but it hasn’t stopped yet. There are still boys from the Meng family carrying it back and forth. Shen Ningning's heart tightened.

 She clearly told Lu Shaoyuan not to make a big fuss.

 Why are you given so much just as a face-to-face gift?

 When it comes time to hire someone, wouldn’t it be necessary to fill both the inner and outer courtyards?

Xie Suzhi said expressionlessly: "Since we are discussing a marriage between two families, it would be very insincere to only let the matchmaker come to the door. I think you should go back first and tell Mrs. Meng that if anything happens, please ask her to bring Mr. Lu to see me."

 The matchmaker quickly smiled and shook her handkerchief.

"What a coincidence! Mrs. Meng and Second Young Master Lu are waiting on the carriage outside the mansion. Today, they came with the villain. They originally wanted to come in and pay homage to the Lord together, but isn't this inappropriate? That’s why I let the villain come to visit me first.”

In the Cangyun Kingdom, when a man and a woman discuss getting married, they first send a matchmaker to their door to prepare a betrothal gift.

If the woman agrees, she will invite the man’s parents to come and have a detailed discussion. After that, the eight-character Gengtie invitations will be exchanged.

 Generally, when the marriage invitations are exchanged, the engagement can be made.

Xie Suzhi didn't expect that Mrs. Meng and the others would be so anxious.

So no matter how reluctant he was, he still nodded for Shen Ningning's sake.

 “Please invite Mrs. Meng and Mr. Lu to come in.”

 The matchmaker hurriedly went to deliver the message.

 After a while, Mrs. Meng, who was dressed up and very solemn, entered together with Lu Shaoyuan.

Mrs. Meng is a wealthy man from the Cangyun Kingdom. Needless to say, she has an elegant appearance. She has a well-maintained face and a proud smile.

 “Thank you, Prime Minister.” She bowed her hands politely.

Lu Shaoyuan beside him also saluted openly, but his lowered hand couldn't help pinching his sleeve.

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

 He glanced at Shen Ningning next to him, who gave him a slight nod in response.

 Lu Shaoyuan suddenly felt a little relieved.

Xie Mingxu didn't notice the subtle interaction between his sister and Lu Shaoyuan.

 He felt a little unspeakably sad.

 There is only a premonition that the happy event between these two families is about to come true.

Xie Suzhi asked people to look at their seats. Mrs. Meng sat down and said, "I really didn't expect that I would be so lucky to have Ning Ning as my daughter-in-law. I have watched her grow up since she was a child."

  When Shen Ningning was not recognized back to the Xie family, Mrs. Meng helped her a lot.

 Xie Suzhi also heard about these things.

 He smiled lightly, but there was no emotion in his eyes: "Maybe the two children are destined to be together."

Mrs. Meng was very talkative and cheerful, and she communicated back and forth with Xie Suzhi.

 During this period, Lu Shaoyuan had been sitting there quietly and calmly, nodding his head from time to time.

 He was mainly worried that being too noisy would make Prime Minister Xie think he was unreliable.

 Unexpectedly, Xie Suzhi quickly brought the topic to him.

“Second Young Master Lu, I have been listening to your mother just now. Since you want to marry Ning Ning, I want to hear what you have to say.”

Mrs. Meng turned around and gave her son an encouraging look.

 Before coming, he was chattering happily, but now in front of Prime Minister Xie, he seemed to be mute!

Lu Shaoyuan stood up, speechless, as if he had a thousand words to say. He wanted to say so much that he didn't know how to speak.

 Suddenly.

 He lifted his robe and knelt down.

Mr. Xie was drinking tea and almost dropped the tea cup.

Everyone was shocked, and Shen Ningning was also slightly startled.

 Just listen to Lu Shaoyuan say in a loud voice: "I swear! I will be good to her for the rest of my life!"
