Chapter 152 Don't Follow Him Home
"Father, what should my daughter do now? I don't want to be suppressed by Huaying of the Shen family." Zi Jin muttered softly.
"The Shen family is nothing to be afraid of. I am worried that if Fu Shiyan is still not interested in you, you will suffer if you marry him."
It was normal for a man from the Wu State to marry three wives and four concubines, but they were afraid that Fu Shiyan, who didn't like daughters in the first place, would favor his concubines over his wife in the future.
Although their daughter was of noble status, the Fu family dared not fail to give her the proper treatment and etiquette, for fear that they would have some hidden intentions.
Hearing her father's words, Zi Jin immediately stopped twisting her handkerchief and a light flashed in her eyes. As long as her father was willing to help her, there would be hope.
The slightly wrinkled brows gradually relaxed, with a hint of shyness on the corners of her mouth, "Don't worry, father. I know Fu Shiyan's character. He won't make things difficult for me. As long as I'm married for a long time, he will naturally care about me."
After saying that, she lowered her head and twirled the embroidered handkerchief, saying with a look of grievance, "It's just that he doesn't agree to marry my daughter." There was a lot of disappointment in her words. It was obvious that she was better than Huaying of the Shen family in every way.
Prince Rui picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said thoughtfully, "If you have made up your mind and will not regret it, your father will make your wish come true." He had in his hand what Fu Jia Erlang wanted most, so he was not afraid that he would not agree to marry his daughter.
Zi Jin smiled as she stood up and bowed to her father, "Thank you, father."
Prince Rui looked at his daughter lovingly, smiled helplessly and shook his head, "Well, call Uncle Fu when you go out." As he said that, he gently placed the teacup on the tea table...
As night fell, candles lit up brightly in the Molan Pavilion of the Shen Mansion.
Huaying, lying on the beauty couch with her legs crossed, was reading the notebook in her hand with great interest.
Suddenly, Qing He's voice came from outside: "Miss, Madam is asking you to go to the front yard to see Master Fu off."
Hua Ying sat up straight after hearing this, and then a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She quickly put down the book in her hand and asked, "Fu Shiyan is leaving?"
Seeing her young lady's impatient look, Qinghe could not help laughing, "Miss, you are so happy that others are leaving." As she said that, she picked up a moon-white cloak and gently draped it on Huaying.
"Is he drunk?" Huaying looked at Qinghe while tying the belt of her cloak, with a questioning look in her eyes.
Qing He smiled and shook her head, and replied: "The champion was not drunk, but our second son who accompanied us for drinking was drunk. When I just came back, I saw the second son clinging to the champion's shoulder, mumbling something. I don't know what he was saying."
After hearing this, Huaying's mouth curled up slightly, and she secretly laughed at her second brother in her heart. After packing up, she took Qinghe and walked towards the front yard.
After a while, I arrived at Chunhua Courtyard. As expected, I saw my second brother, whose cheeks were flushed from drinking, hugging Fu Shiyan's shoulders. His eyes were a little blurry, but he was still saying, "Brother, there is only one girl in our Shen family. Now that you have come to propose marriage, no one will make things difficult for you or stop you. If my little sister follows you and suffers all kinds of grievances, I... Shen Nanxing will be the first one to not forgive you. If you love my little sister, I, Shen Nanxing, will be the first one to help you when you encounter trouble."
Fu Shiyan looked at the drunk Shen Nanxing and whispered, "Don't worry, second brother, I will never let Huaying down."
After hearing what Fu Shiyan said, Shen Nanxing raised his head and drank another glass of wine.
Fu Shiyan sighed helplessly and looked up at the person behind Shen Nanxing. She was wearing a lavender dress and a white jade hairpin on her head, which contrasted with her moon-white cloak. She had a pair of lively and bright almond-shaped eyes and shallow dimples on both sides of her cheeks, which made her look even more fresh and refined.
Shen Nanxing noticed Fu Shiyan's gaze, followed his line of sight, and found Huaying standing at the door. He immediately stood up and walked over, pulling Huaying in front of Fu Shiyan.
"My younger sister chose you among the many people who came to propose marriage. You must treat her well!" Shen Nanxing said with his eyes slightly red. His most beloved younger sister was about to get married.
Huaying was suddenly pulled over by Shen Nanxing, feeling a little shy, "Second brother, you've had too much to drink."
"I'm not drunk. My sister is getting engaged today, and I'm very happy as her brother."
Fu Shiyan looked at Huaying who was shy, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose, revealing a gentle smile.
Huaying looked up and met his gaze. They both saw the affection in each other's eyes and their faces turned even redder.
I sighed secretly, why are you, a modern person, so shy...
"At this moment, I feel redundant." Shen Nanxing deliberately broke their sweet atmosphere and teased.
Huaying glared at Shen Nanxing and said coquettishly, "Second brother."
Seeing Fu Shiyan staring at her younger sister like a pervert, Shen Nanxing raised the corners of her mouth and put down her hand on his shoulder.
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. I'll go see how Dad and Mom are doing." Shen Nanxing smiled and waved his hand, then turned around and prepared to leave Chunhuayuan.
After walking a few steps, she turned around and looked at Huaying, "Little sister, just send Brother Fu to the gate of the mansion. You can't go home with him." After saying that, she left crookedly.
Huaying was worried that he might fall, so she turned around and told Qinghe, "Go find a few capable people to serve Second Brother, and cook some hangover soup for him to drink."
Qing He bowed and followed the Second Young Master away.
Huaying looked at Shen Nanxing's crooked back, shook her head helplessly and chuckled.
"It can be seen that second brother loves you very much." Fu Shiyan said with a smile.
"Well, he cried so much that his eyes were swollen the day I returned to Beijing, and he is always very nice to me." In the real world, she had never experienced this kind of family love, but God compensated her double in this life.
When she first entered the mansion, she carefully learned various etiquette, books, music, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Fearing that she would bring shame to the Shen family, the second brother told her not to be afraid, even if she made a mistake, it would be okay, and the second brother would take care of her if anything happened...
Fu Shiyan looked at Huaying with tenderness in his eyes and gently held Huaying's hand: "I will make you happy."
Huaying raised her eyes and saw that Fu Shiyan's cheeks were slightly flushed with wine, his black eyes were full of tenderness, and there was an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth as he looked at her.
She felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by him, so she quickly looked away and said softly, "I'll take you to the gate of the mansion."
When the maids who were cleaning the yard saw this scene, they all covered their lips and laughed.
"Our young lady and her husband look so good together, just like the saying in the opera that a talented man and a beautiful woman make a good match."
"Yes, Miss looks best when she smiles. My uncle usually has a cold face towards everyone, but every time he sees Miss, he smiles tenderly."
Huaying's ears blushed when she heard this, and she couldn't help but quicken her pace. Fu Shiyan, who was following behind her, smiled and stared at the beautiful figure in front of him, his eyes full of tenderness, as if he didn't hear the maids' discussions.
Many years later, on a snowy day, Fu Shiyan looked at the white snow and recalled this scene with a heartache like a knife...
