Also, based on what Shuyao mentioned today, it seems that Brother Jin already has a sweetheart."
When she said this, Song Yueyue's voice revealed an unconcealable excitement, and her cheeks flushed slightly.
Listening to her sister's explanation, Song Wanwan's eyes lit up. "Really? Brother Jin already has someone in his heart? Who is it?"
She looked at her sister playfully, trying to get more information from her reaction.
Seeing her sister like this, Song Yueyue couldn't help but reach out and gently pinch her face: "You clever little thing, don't make random guesses, and don't spread it around!"
She warned with a smile as she lectured him.
Song Wanwan, who was suddenly "attacked" by her sister, quickly dodged away, letting out a clear and sweet laugh: "Sister, you are innocent. I didn't dare to say anything nonsense!"
Unexpectedly, this joking action of hers made her even more shy. Song Yueyue's face was even more rosy than before.
Song Yueyue is now eighteen years old.
At this age, a daughter of an aristocratic family should be spoiled by her parents. Most girls at this age will stay at home and enjoy a carefree life, and will not start to think about marriage until they are a little older.
However, it is rare in the aristocratic circle for someone like her to have a good family background but still not settle down.
She had been waiting for Fu Yu's arrival.
There is a reason for saying this.
In her impression, Fu Yu's attitude towards her was always so special.
Especially after hearing her aunt mention the words "marriage between close relatives" when she wanted to find a good marriage for Fu Yu, she became more determined in her inner thoughts.
If we follow this logic, it seems that no one other than myself is more suitable to be the future daughter-in-law of the Fu family.
But the strange thing is that up to now, there has been no news from the Fu Mansion, which makes people feel quite confused and disappointed.
The Princess of the County once thought about sending someone directly to ask the Duke's wife for her opinion, trying to find out whether the other party had the same idea or intention.
However, this plan was rejected by Song Yueyue herself.
Because she felt that if the woman took the initiative to propose a marriage, it would seem a bit too hasty in the social atmosphere at the time and would damage the family's reputation.
Perhaps another more reasonable explanation is: considering that we are currently in the period of preparation for the imperial examination, maybe Fu Yu just temporarily put all his attention on the books and did not want to be distracted by it.
Based on what we have seen in daily life, and his level of dedication to his studies, it should be a sure thing that Fu Yu will pass the imperial examination.
Scholars and men of letters have always been happy to have double happiness, and it is extremely auspicious and perfect when the "wedding night" and "passing the imperial examination" happen to occur at the same time.
From this, it can be inferred that when Fu Yu successfully achieves fame and fortune, it should be the best time for the two to enter the marriage palace.
Thinking of this, the worries that had accumulated in my heart suddenly disappeared, and were replaced by longing and infinite yearning for a better life in the future.
"Oh, by the way, how about we go to Guanghua Temple to draw lots tomorrow?"
With a gleam in her eyes, Song Yueyue extended an invitation to her friends around her.
"I don't think it's appropriate to go out and play at the moment."
Song Wanwan frowned and replied softly, "At today's banquet, I heard that Beiyou Khan had quietly arrived in the capital. Rumor has it that his purpose in coming is to ask the royal family to arrange a marriage for the princess. Given this situation, I'm afraid it would be best to avoid public display for the time being."
"You do have some truth in what you say. That old man is truly abominable. How could any woman in the world be willing to marry a man so far away in the frontier whom she has never met?"
When this unreliable political marriage was mentioned, Song Yueyue, who had been feeling somewhat happy, immediately felt angry.
"Don't worry, sister. Your good match won't be scared away so easily."
Song Wanwan comforted her half-jokingly, with a hint of playfulness and confidence in her tone, as if when she said this, she had already foreseen her sister's good future marriage.
"You want to be screwed, don't you?"
Song Yueyue glared at her and said in an angry tone.
However, she couldn't hide the smile in her eyes, and was obviously joking with her sister.
Although there was a hint of blame in her tone, it was actually more of a fondness for her sister's innocent behavior.
The two sisters laughed and played for a while before going their separate ways. Their cheerful laughter still hung in the air, and the joy seemed to excite even the flowers in the courtyard, as if they were also rejoicing at the sisters' happiness.
After everyone went to bed, Song Wanwan asked all the maids to go out late at night, and then took out a small box from a hidden place.
This box is not big, but it is extremely precious to her. Every time she touches it, she can feel its special weight.
The box was full of things that Fu Yu had secretly given her over the years.
Each item carries a special memory.
Among them was a shuttlecock made by Fu Yu himself. Although the workmanship of the shuttlecock was not exquisite, in her eyes it was the most beautiful handicraft in the world; a sandalwood bracelet polished as smooth as a mirror, with some subtle patterns engraved on it, which was his painstaking work, and every stroke revealed his delicacy and care; a revised calligraphy book, which was densely packed with the contents of their discussions, and the comments he left for her, every line of which was full of his care and consideration; and a jade bracelet repaired by a craftsman. She had accidentally broken it, but he quietly found someone to repair it. This attentiveness moved her deeply, and every time she saw the jade bracelet, she would think of his silent dedication.
Fu Yu was a gentle and elegant scholar who treated everyone politely and considerately. Whether it was the maids in the mansion or the visitors from outside, he always treated them with courtesy and had never been seen to be disrespectful to anyone.
Whenever a young lady from another family encountered difficulties, even if it was just a small trouble, he would always try his best to help solve the problem and never refuse. His warm heart made him establish an excellent image in everyone's heart.
Although on the surface he seemed to be colder towards her than towards others and always kept a certain distance from her, he actually cared about her very much in private.
He would remember what she liked and give her surprises when she least expected. He would also pay attention to her health and remind her to pay attention to weather changes. This seemingly casual care made her feel warm.
I wonder if Brother Jin treats others the same way?
This thought suddenly popped into my mind.
Did he also give Song Yueyue many such gifts?
Whenever I think of this, an indescribable sadness comes over me.
