Chapter 280 Double Happiness
Shen Luoyun's eyes lit up when he heard this. If life after marriage was really as he said, it would be a good thing for him. Moreover, Lu Zhan had protected him many times on the battlefield. How could he not be moved? He lowered his head, blushing, and spoke shyly.
"I...I will listen to Madam Jun..."
Listening to her stuttering tone and looking at her blushing face, Lu Zhan just thought she was cute and couldn't help but reach out and touch her face.
"Okay, I will prepare the betrothal gifts as soon as possible and invite Mr. Jun and Mrs. Jun to come to the Shen family to propose marriage."
Shen Luoyun didn't expect him to do such a thing, his face turned even redder, and his head almost dropped to his chest.
Lu Zhan took out a hairpin from his arms and put it on her bun.
"This hairpin is the only thing my mother left me. Although it is very ordinary, it has a special meaning. I have carried it with me all the way from the Imperial City to the northwest. Now it is time to give it to my beloved for safekeeping."
Listening to his thoughtful words, Shen Luoyun seemed to have a place in his heart collapse.
"I...I will keep it safe..."
Lu Zhan was ecstatic to receive the approval of his sweetheart, but he was afraid of scaring Shen Luoyun by making any unnecessary movements, so he just touched the ends of her hair.
"Since you've already agreed, why don't you take me to meet your aunt? Now that I'm here, I should pay my respects to her."
Shen Luoyun looked up at him in surprise. He actually wanted to pay a visit to his aunt. You know, the more noble the family's status, the more they look down on concubines.
Seeing his surprised look, Lu Zhan lowered his head slightly and moved a little closer to her.
"Why? Don't you want to?"
Shen Luoyun hurriedly spoke after hearing this.
"No, no, I'm not unwilling, I......"
Just when Shen Luoyun was at a loss, Qingmei came over.
"Master Lu, Second Miss, the master has asked us to go to the front hall for dinner."
Shen Luoyun had no choice but to speak.
"Master Lu, let's go finish our meal first. As for visiting my aunt, we'll do it next time."
Yes, it’s not good to be too sudden, Lu Zhan nodded slightly.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. But didn't I tell you to call me Ah Zhan? It sounds strange to call me Lord Lu."
Seeing that he didn't leave, Shen Luoyun finally bit her lip and spoke in a low voice.
“Ah…Zhan…”
Hearing her soft voice, Lu Zhan suddenly smiled.
"Yeah, I'm here. Let's go eat."
Jun family.
Chuntao prepared two large tables of delicious food. Everyone from the Su family came, including Li Xiao and Su Hanzhi. The whole family was having a great time.
Li Xiao picked up the wine glass.
"Sir, Li Xiao respects you. Everything is self-evident. In short, I, Li Xiao, owe my current position to you. No matter where I am in the future, I will always be your man. As long as you give me an order, I will brave the sword and the sea. As soldiers in the northwest, we will go wherever you tell us to point our swords."
Jun Moye raised his glass and clinked it with Li Xiao.
"I believe in you, Li Xiao. We are now brothers who have shared life and death together. We will continue to support each other. In this battle, you led the people of the northwest to defend the northwest. I have already discussed with Lord Shenwu Hou and asked him to help request that you be appointed as the commander of the northwest in the imperial city. You can now be said to have brought honor to your family. Your marriage to your fiancée has also been arranged. Congratulations on your promotion and marriage. Double happiness."
Getting promoted and getting married are happy events that many people cannot hope for. Unexpectedly, the encounter on the mountain changed his destiny drastically. Li Xiao's eyes were full of gratitude.
"Thank you, sir."
Drink the wine in the glass in one gulp.
The people at Su Hanchu's table who practiced martial arts had excellent hearing, so they naturally heard the conversation between the two and watched Su Hanchu jokingly.
"Zhizhi, the future wife of the great general, your fiancé will soon be the great general of the northwest. When are you going to turn back into Lin Xiuzhi? I'm still waiting to plan your wedding."
Su Hanzhi nodded slightly, looking shy.
"Sister, you tease me too."
Su Hanchu looked at her smiling face and spoke with some earnestness.
"You are not young anymore. You have finally made it this far. Now that Li Xiao has achieved success and fame, you have been with him every step of the way. Before he returns to the Imperial City, you must restore your status and stand by his side."
Su Hanzhi looked hesitant after hearing this.
"But sister, if I resume my identity as Lin Xiuzhi now, will there be any trouble? I'm afraid that I'll get into trouble with you..."
Su Hanchu reached out and picked up some food for her.
"Just put your heart at ease. Your sister has married into the Ma family and I heard she even has a child now. Tell everyone that you are the daughter of the Lin family who was lost many years ago. You met Li Xiao by chance and are now returning to the Lin family to recognize your relatives.
What's more, with Li Xiao's current status, even if something really happens, he is capable of protecting you, so you don't need to be afraid. As for me, I am never afraid of trouble.
Because of my status, the livelihood of so many shops depends on you running around and managing them. Your hard work has been seen by your sister. Now that the war is over and everything has settled, I just want my sister to be happy."
Su Hanzhi's eyes welled up with tears when she heard this.
"Thank you, sister. You saved my life. Don't worry, sister. No matter what Zhizhi's future status is, or whether she goes to the Imperial City, you will always be Zhizhi's sister and the most important person in her heart."
After hearing this, Su Hanchu picked up some food for her again and joked with a smile.
"Let's eat first. The most important person in your heart is, of course, me, Li Xiao."
Su Hanzhi felt embarrassed when being teased and lowered her head to pick up some food.
"elder sister."
Su Hanchu took two bites of food and continued speaking.
"I have trained a few people for you. They are girls who are good at martial arts and know etiquette. When you go to the Imperial City, you can take them with you. There are many rules in the Imperial City. When you return to the Imperial City to receive the reward, you will be the new nobles of the Imperial City.
There will definitely be some people who will be jealous of you. You are the wife of a great general, so you should be steady and dignified, but don't be afraid of others and don't let them bully you."
After hearing this, Su Hanzhi hurriedly spoke with gratitude.
"Thank you, sister. You are so thoughtful and you care about me. Sister, I have to tell you the truth. I am very nervous. Although I often travel outside for the sake of livelihood, I have long been accustomed to many things.
But the people in the Imperial City are either rich or noble. I'm unfamiliar with the place and don't have many trustworthy people. I'm still afraid. Now that I have my sister, I feel relieved when you give me someone."
