Zhu Erdan was also brought to Ning Xu's mansion. He had a strong desire to create recently, probably because he felt the pain of missing his wife.

That's right, he wasted his time getting married, but later he fell in love with his destined wife.

Three years ago, Zhu Erdan happily said to Tu Yufan: "Dad, I like a girl and I want to marry her."

Tu Yufan asked: "Where did you see the girl?"

Tu Yufan recalled that Zhu Erdan was taken to a brothel by his friend some time ago. Because he did not bring enough money, the manager of the brothel asked Tu Yufan for money. His hands were itching again.

Seeing Tu Yufan's suspicious look, Zhu Erdan said angrily, "She's not that kind of girl. She's a proper young lady. I saw her when she came to the shop to look at the wood carvings. Although she was wearing a veil, I fell in love with her. Dad, are you listening to me?"

Seeing that Tu Yufan's eyes were almost turning into dead fish eyes, Zhu Erdan came over angrily and said.

"I heard you. Dad will check for you. I thought you didn't want to get married for so many years because you had some unfavorable relationship with him. Dad is not an unenlightened person. I didn't expect you to play the trick of love at first sight."

"Dad, don't be so disgusting!"

Seeing Zhu Erdan’s crazy expression, Tu Yufan felt like he had goose bumps all over his body. He snorted coldly and left.

After a long investigation, they found out that it was the girl from Yushan Village.

That is Zhu Erdan’s originally destined wife.

Yu Shu's father did not die in the plague. It was said that he took the exam several times and finally became a juren. He settled in the county town. Zhu Erdan, a carpenter, was basically not worthy of him.

Tu Yufan said directly, "This won't work. If you can pass the imperial examination, you still have hope. But now, will his daughter, a juren, marry you?"

Zhu Erdan showed a disappointed expression: "Dad, if I had studied hard, would I be able to marry the girl I like now?"

Tu Yufan shook his head: "Impossible, some people are not born with this talent. You need to continue studying. Even if you have emptied the Zhu family's wealth, you probably won't be able to achieve anything."

Tu Yufan patted his shoulder and said, "Give up on this idea."

Expecting his father to comfort him was simply asking for trouble, and Zhu Erdan finally left in a depressed mood.

Tu Yufan squinted his eyes and looked at Zhu Erdan, he didn't expect that the plot would deviate so much this time. Zhu Erdan still fell in love with Yu Shu, but what's the use? He didn't cherish her when they were together. It was lucky that Yu Shu didn't abuse him in this life. He still wanted to renew their previous relationship.

Tu Yufan did not say anything to discourage him and let him lose his appetite all day. Sometimes when Yu Shu passed by, he would stare at her in a daze and did not dare to come closer.

This is what love gives rise to.

Unfortunately, the miracle did not happen. Yu Shu finally married the son of her father's classmate. The two families were well-matched and a match made in heaven.

On the day Yu Shu got married, Zhu Erdan was drinking alone at home, looking unhappy.

After that, Zhu Erdan began to concentrate on his creation. Tu Yufan also saw his inner resistance and stopped looking for girls for him. After all, he had the ability to survive, so he would not starve to death even without the Zhu family.

Now he followed Tu Yufan to the capital, and was also hiding in the room tinkering with wood carving. Seeing that he was unable to get out, Ning Xu had to introduce him to a famous carpenter in the capital, and only then was Zhu Erdan willing to move his butt and go out.

Matters of fortune usually see one side gain while the other loses. For example, Ning Xu became a close minister of the emperor and had great power in the court, while Zhou Yi's side began to calm down.

Tu Yufan sighed, relying on oneself is not as comfortable as relying on others. The first half of his life was a little difficult, and the rest was all thanks to his adopted son's hard work, who also earned a title for him.

It can be considered as changing one's fate.

Ning Xu was in power for decades, spanning three dynasties, and held great power, leaving behind a name for himself as a prime minister of all time in history books.

The surprise was that Zhu Erdan, who had been a bachelor all his life and devoted himself to working with wood, unexpectedly became a famous carpenter in history.
