Chapter 160 Whose Good Son?

Shen Qingyue nodded in agreement after hearing Hua Wanli's words.

"That's for sure, that's the third son of General Huangfu, the Marquis of Everlasting Victory."

The third young master, Huangfu Ruolang, should be twenty-two years old.

I had heard my father say before that General Huangfu's four sons and two daughters were all born to his first wife.

This third young master has been intelligent since childhood. Even my father praised him highly, saying that he would surely become a great man and a pillar of the nation.

The third young master of Huangfu was fourteen years old when he joined General Huangfu in stationing in the north.

I heard that he is now a general of chariots and cavalry, and has made many military achievements. He is brave and skillful in battle and shares weal and woe with his soldiers.

There are no bad habits.

Countless families in the capital are eyeing this!

Even the Empress Dowager in the palace intended to marry the daughter of the Duke of Anguo to him.

But General Huangfu had already declared that this third young master was not destined to marry early and that marriage should not be discussed until he was over twenty-two.

Furthermore, General Huangfu stated that he would make the decision regarding his third son's marriage.

No one, including him, can make the decision for him.

However, Wanli is right about one thing: the third young master of the Huangfu family is indeed not interested in women.

In the military camp, he was also engrossed in reading various military books and studying different battle formations...

"Hey! Miss Wanli, why aren't you saying anything?"

Shen Qingyue tugged at Hua Wanli's sleeve, pulling the engrossed Hua Wanli back from the window.

"He's truly exceptional! I just observed his walking gait."

Firm and strong, with a pert bottom and long legs, broad shoulders and a narrow waist, he looks like...

Um, what I mean is that this man is really nice.

Sister Yao, you can consider it. Let Madam Shen and Madam Huangfu talk to them. Both of your families are military generals, so you have something in common.

"Your father used to be the commander of the Weiyuan Army, so this is a true match in terms of social standing," Hua Wanli said earnestly.

Shen Qingyue chuckled.

"I see this Third Young Master just like I see... my younger brother Shen Qingjun."

He seems like both an older brother and a younger brother.

It just didn't have that "wow" feeling you described.

Okay, don't worry about me, my mother will take care of my affairs.

"I think..." Shen Qingyue looked Hua Wanli up and down.

With her stunning beauty, quirky personality, and unfathomable martial arts skills, she is truly a perfect match!

"Me? How could that be!"

I am destined to inherit the Wan Hua Lou brothel; how could I possibly become the wife of a general of chariots and cavalry?

"Alright, that's enough. They're coming down from Chunbuwan. Do you want to go see them?" Hua Wanli urged Shen Qingyue.

Shen Qingyue peeked out again.

The third young master of the Huangfu family dismounted at Chunbuwan and helped the old lady and madam Huangfu down from the carriage.

At this moment, even Qianli came out of the building and greeted the two ladies with a smile.

"Madam Huangfu, it's been a long time since you've visited. Chun Buwan just brought you some tea, and I've saved it for you!"

Madam Huangfu's hair was completely white, and she couldn't stop smiling as she looked at Lian Qianli.

"Young Master Lian is so thoughtful, he even remembered to save tea for us!"

I was busy with Chinese New Year preparations recently, and this kid just came back from the north.

I've been very busy at home, but I managed to squeeze in some time to come.

Young Master Lian, no matter what, you must talk to this old woman more today.

I know that you have the best information network in the entire capital.

You'll have to lend a hand with my third grandson's marriage...

The Third Young Master Huangfu, who maintained a polite smile throughout...

Lian Qianli glanced at the Third Young Master Huangfu, following what the Old Madam Huangfu had said.

With his imposing presence, upright character, and youthful vigor, I wonder which young lady he'll end up with...

Watching Lian Qianli lead the two wives of the Huangfu family and the third young master of the Huangfu family inside, Shen Qingyue smiled.

"Your brother..."

No, when did your brother become a matchmaker?

Old Madam Huangfu has always been very proud and arrogant; not just anyone can meet her standards.

Hua Wanli pursed her lips.

"That kid has a sweet tongue and knows how to talk."

Not only Madam Huangfu, but your old lady also likes to talk to him, doesn't she?

In this respect, I admire my younger brother.

You say the right thing to the right person, always saying what they like to hear.

When they meet an elderly person, they talk about gods and Buddhas; when they meet someone like Madam Shen, they talk about everyday family matters.

When you meet someone like me, we can talk about cosmetics, jade pendants, hairpins, and the like.

Basically, they speak human language to humans and ghost language to ghosts.

From eighty-year-olds to eight-year-olds, there is no one who doesn't like talking to him.

"Oh, you don't seem to like talking to him. Every time you see him, you just say hello." Hua Wanli laughed.

Shen Qingyue nodded.

"Because I don't like talking about cosmetics or jade pendants and hairpins." Shen Qingyue nodded seriously.

Hua Wanli also thought it made sense.

Shen Qingyue was different from the other young ladies she had met.

It seems like they're not interested in any of these things.

Instead, I'm interested in some other things...

For example, the Crown Prince and the King of Qin started fighting again...

"My younger brother spends all his time in the teahouse, either writing stories or listening to people gossip about the Zhang family and the Li family."

They know better than the official media how they treat the young ladies and gentlemen of which family!

These old ladies like talking to him, and that's probably related to this too!

"Little Sister Yao, what kind of snacks would you like? I'll have Aunt Zhu bring some more up." Hua Wanli said, getting up to leave.

"Anything is fine, anything will do. That green tea cake from last time was pretty good."

"Go ahead and get busy! I'll stay here and have some more tea," Shen Qingyue said with a smile.

Hua Wanli then got up.

I asked again before leaving.

"You really have no feelings for that Third Young Master Huangfu? Don't you need my brother to secretly encourage you?"

"Really! I didn't feel anything at all."

"You'd better go and greet them. You're the young master, and we have distinguished guests. How can you hide in your room drinking tea?" Shen Qingyue assured him once again.

Hua Wanli sighed. What a pity!

Having lived in the capital for so long, I've only ever seen one truly exceptional person!

Sister Yao actually didn't like him! What a waste of such a fine young man.

Such a person is an extremely rare find, even in the entire Chongqing region!

Sigh! If this doesn't work, should I just take him in myself?

No, absolutely not! How could I even have such a thought!

What if it's like when my mother met my father?

......

Hua Wanli shook her head and sighed as she left the private room.

This scene was witnessed by Huangfu Sanshao, who came out of another private room.

Hmm, what a strange young lady, why is she sighing! And she's frowning while she's sighing.

She's so small! She doesn't even reach my shoulder!
