The next day, Prime Minister Shen received an important task from Mrs. Shen, asking him to find out what Mr. Xu was willing to do. If so, she could arrange for a matchmaker to come to his house.

If we go to the Xu family rashly and they are unwilling, but they have to agree because of the Shen family's family background, isn't this bullying?

Getting married?

Of course, it depends on both your consent.

After Shen Shoufu left the court, he saw that nothing was wrong and went to find Master Xu.

Mr. Xu, who could only attend court on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, was flattered to be favored by Prime Minister Shen. He was thinking in all sorts of ways, thinking that he should have done nothing wrong?

And the smile on Shen Shoufu’s face didn’t seem to be a bad thing.

Master Xu bowed and said, "Greetings, sir."

Shen Shoufu waved his hand and said, "I heard that the daughter of Lord Xu is a virtuous and elegant woman. Is there any marriage proposal?"

Mr. Xu's eyes lit up. Sure enough, they came for his daughter. Apart from a few daughters in his house, there didn't seem to be anything else worth others' attention.

Especially the eldest daughter. Since she came back from the banquet that day, many people have come to her, wanting to marry her.

I didn't expect that my daughter, who was dark, fat and ugly with a birthmark on her face, would grow up to be so outstanding.

Come to think of it, her mother is beautiful. If he hadn't been attracted by her mother's beauty, how could he have married a merchant girl?

"Not yet." Mr. Xu clenched his fist excitedly. Being able to marry Prime Minister Shen, his Xu family would become rich.

"My eldest son hasn't married yet!" Shen Shoufu said with a smile, "If Master Xu is free, can we have tea together tomorrow?"

"Okay!" Lord Xu nodded repeatedly.

When Shen Shoufu left, he added: “Oh, by the way, at the last banquet, my Yanbao thanked the eldest lady of the Xu family for taking care of him. The child likes your eldest lady very much.”

Mr. Xu knew what Chief Minister Shen revealed.

In order to prevent Mr. Xu from making a mistake, he pointed out that the Shen family had their eyes on the eldest daughter, Xu Zhimo, not any of the other daughters, and asked him to go back and not ask the wrong question, which would cause unnecessary trouble.

Lord Xu nodded, thinking that the daughter he thought was going to be a disaster had actually become a delicious cake.

Unlike other people who came to propose marriage, the Shen family was a family of high status for their Xu family.

How could Mr. Xu not seize such a good marriage opportunity?

That day, when Master Xu returned home, he told Madam Xu about this matter: "Shen Shoufu actually fell in love with the girl of the Xu family. He is testing the waters today and waiting for my answer tomorrow. That is the Shen family, the emperor's favorite minister."

Especially in the past few months, the emperor has valued Shen Shoufu more and more, and how many people are jealous!

That Mr. Shen is the ideal husband and son-in-law in many people's minds, yet he actually condescended to come to me to find out.

Mr. Xu almost got carried away.

Mrs. Xu excitedly grabbed his hand and said, "That's great. Why don't you agree to this good thing right away? When Zhirong marries into the Shen family, she will be able to help her younger brothers and sisters in the future. This is a match made in heaven."

Xu Zhirong happened to be walking by and her heart exploded when she heard her mother's words.

Her eyes widened in disbelief. What did she hear?

Shen family?

Lord Xiao Shen wants to marry her?

Oh my God, what has she done to deserve being favored by Lord Shen?

Thinking of the handsome, elegant, and gentle Lord Shen, Xu Zhirong's heart skipped a beat and her whole body was shaking with excitement. Countless images flashed through her mind. She even gave birth to several children for Lord Shen.

The whole picture of a happy winner in life made her blush.

Just as she was getting excited, she heard her father say, "It's not Zhirong."

Mrs. Xu: “?”

Xu Zhirong: “???”

Mrs. Xu had a bad feeling. She looked at Mr. Xu and hesitated, "Who else could it be if not Zhirong?"

Could it be that ugly Zhimo?

As long as you are not blind, you won't fall in love with her, right?

How could that bitch be so lucky?

Does she deserve it?

Xu Zhirong didn't wait for Master Xu to speak, she rushed in excitedly: "Dad and Mom, I want to marry, I want to marry Master Xiao Shen, I will marry him in this life!"

At the banquet a few days ago, the man with the mole said that he liked me and wanted to come to propose marriage. Who does he think he is? How could he be worthy? He looks like Zhu Bajie. How could he have the nerve to ask for my help?

Even if she were to marry, she would choose an extraordinary man like Lord Xiao Shen.

Otherwise, she would rather not marry.

Madam Xu was not giving up: "Master, did you hear wrongly? It was Zhirong who proposed the marriage?"

Xu Zhirong nodded affirmatively: "Yes, yes, it's me, it's me, it can't be anyone else. Master Shen has seen my daughter, he must want to marry her, Dad, you agree to him."

Mr. Xu couldn't see what the mother and daughter were thinking. He also hoped it was the younger daughter. It was because they were afraid that he had made a mistake that they specifically reminded him that it was the eldest daughter Xu, not the second daughter.

Master Xu looked at Xu Zhirong with reluctance, and a look made her collapse: "Why? I don't agree. Dad, please let me marry into the Shen family. I can replace my eldest sister, wuwuwu!"

Mrs. Xu patted her shoulder soothingly and pleaded: "Master..."

Mr. Xu was in a dilemma: "It's not me who is arguing about the marriage. I can't influence it. They want to marry the eldest girl, not you. Be quiet. I will ask your eldest sister's opinion later."

"As for you, ask your mother to find a good marriage for you. Don't even think about the Shen family. They don't like you." Mr. Xu had a headache because of the crying, so he took the opportunity to leave and calm down.

Xu Zhirong broke down and cried: "Mom, please help me, how can she marry into the Shen family? How can she be worthy? It should be me."

Mrs. Xu also felt unbalanced. How could she be worthy of that ugly guy?

She should marry a womanizer, a gambler and a loser, and be tortured by him all her life, otherwise it would be difficult to get rid of the resentment in her heart.
