"You, be more normal." Tu Puhe's beard was trembling as he spoke.
Pei Jianzhen stood up and said, "The junior is very normal."
At this time, Tu Qingyu had already arrived at the front hall. She hid behind the screen, covering her mouth, and almost laughed out loud.
Pei Jian's role change was too fast, and he didn't seem to have any difficulty adapting at all.
He is indeed the lucky son of this world.
Tu Puhe glanced at the things piled on the ground and said, "What are you doing..."
Although he knew what it was, he still spoke tentatively.
"I have been fond of Qingyu for a long time, so I came here specially to propose marriage. I hope my uncle will agree to it." He bowed again. He never bent his waist at all on normal days, but he bowed deeply in front of Tu Puhe.
Tu Puhe's entire body trembled. He subconsciously took a half step back. "What are you doing?"
"Dad!" Tu Qingyu rushed in at this time. She walked quickly to Pei Jian and said, "Dad, please get someone up quickly."
Tu Puhe frowned and looked at him, "What are you doing out here?"
"This isn't the place for you. Go back quickly." He looked around. "Go and see why the eldest and second brothers haven't come back yet!"
Such a big thing happened at home, why don’t you go home yet!
The housekeeper, who was still confused in the living room, quickly bowed and said, "Yes."
"You, you get up first." He helped Pei Jian up, "Let's talk it over."
Pei Zhenzhen stood up. He glanced at the girl's hand that was pulling his sleeve, and for the first time reached out to cover it and patted it gently.
Tu Puhe's eyes widened, "W-What are you doing?!"
He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, "Xingzhi, I know you and the old monk are good friends, but we don't have to take the monk's words so seriously.
What kind of evil spirit is this? We have so many soldiers in Daxuan, can’t they protect the people?
You don't have to take such nonsense to heart.
Not to mention, you're joking about your marriage for this kind of talk. How could I not know you? You..."
"I'm not kidding." Pei Jian interrupted him, "I didn't come here to ask for your hand in marriage just because of Wuliang's words."
"W-Why is that?"
"Because I am happy with Qingyu."
As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Tu Qingyu, who smiled sweetly at him.
"You, you like her?" Tu Puhe looked at his daughter. He clearly saw joy in his daughter's eyes.
"Yes," he confessed, "that's why there are so many prophecies."
In an instant, Tu Puhe understood everything.
"You, you guys..." He covered his chest, looking like he was having trouble breathing.
Tu's mother quickly supported him, pinched his philtrum and asked, "Master, are you okay?"
Tu Puhe gasped for breath and it took him a long time to react, "I'm fine, I'm fine..."
He said it was okay, but his face turned red.
He moved step by step to the chair at the head of the table, picked up the teacup tremblingly, took a sip and asked, "When did it happen?"
"Dad, we..."
"I'm asking him!" For the first time in his life, he spoke harshly to Pei Jian.
Pei Jian readily bowed again, "A few months ago."
"Okay, that's really good." He put down the teacup, "Pah!"
With a crisp sound, cracks appeared on the tea set.
"A few months ago, Qing Yu had not yet..." broken off the engagement with Pei Kangsheng!
How can you be so bold?
If Qingyu cannot successfully break off the engagement with Pei Kangsheng, how should Qingyu cope with the situation?
Pei Jian bowed slightly, "It's all my fault."
"Don't!" Tu Puhe stretched out his hand. "I'm not worthy of being called your junior. Who are you, Duke Dingguo? You are omnipotent, a genius of all ages, you..."
He wanted to continue the Yin-Yang thing, but was interrupted by Tu Qingyu, "Dad, I was the one who teased him first. It's all my fault."
She portrayed the role of a willful, capricious and outspoken little girl to perfection.
"You, you..." Tu Puhe almost couldn't breathe.
What kind of teasing or not? Tu Puhe really didn't expect that his daughter would say such words.
But looking at his daughter's eager eyes, he couldn't say a harsh word.
He took a deep breath and quickly processed the information in his mind, trying to calm himself down.
After a moment, he did calm down.
At this point, he seemed to have no other choice.
Wuliang's prophecy had already been spoken. Those people dared to kneel at the gate of Pei Jian's mansion, let alone force him, the Minister of Revenue.
The most important thing is that his daughter likes this guy!
He had never seen Qingyu like that before. His mind and eyes were filled with this person, which was really glaring.
But he also knew that his daughter was happy.
What else can I do?
The most important thing is that my daughter is happy.
He sat down on the chair at the head of the table, took a sip of tea slowly, and then extended his hand to everyone present, "Sit down, sit down and we'll talk."
This calm look even made Tu Qingyu feel a little scary.
She asked tentatively, "Dad...are you okay?"
“Bang!”
I just replaced the teacup, and another one broke.
"What can I do? Now that things have come to this, what else can I do?" He looked at everyone, "Everyone sit down. Why are you looking at me like that?"
Pei Jian then slowly sat down. Tu Qingyu wanted to sit next to him, but Tu Puhe glared at him, "You, sit over there."
She curled her lips, stood up reluctantly and walked to the other side.
Just at this moment, her three brothers came back at the same time.
Tu Puhe's anger seemed to have found an outlet, "Why are you back?! Why don't you spend the New Year outside before coming back?!"
The three Tu brothers: ???
Several people looked at each other, and finally saw Pei Jian sitting in the hall with a bunch of gifts tied with red silk.
I understood a little bit in an instant.
For a moment, they didn't know how to react, but subconsciously walked up to Pei Jian and bowed, "Master Pei."
Pei Jian stood up and returned the greeting, "Big Brother, Second Brother, Third Brother."
Big brother, second brother, third brother:!!!
Pei Jian saluted them and called them brother?
Did the sun rise normally today?
Tu Puhe glanced at them and said sarcastically, "Just sit down. There's no need to make a fuss. You'll get used to it. There will be many more times like this in the future."
"Father, what do you mean..." The eldest brother of the Tu family glanced at the dazzling array of gifts, "Do you agree?"
Tu Puhe didn't answer him directly, but just asked: "When you came in, didn't you notice that the gate of our house was surrounded?"
Several people understood instantly. Brother Tu said, "But this can't be..."
Just like that, he promised his sister away.
Tu Puhe held his forehead and said, "Look at your sister."
Several people looked at Tu Qingyu again. Everyone present was smart. When they saw the love in their sister's eyes, what could they not understand?
