The door was opened by two Xuanyan Mansion disciples holding swords. Upon seeing the newcomers, they asked, "Are you three looking for our eldest young master?"
"Yes, please report it for us."
"Okay, wait a moment, the three of you."
After Ji Wuchang saw the two people report, he looked at Ji Jingyi and asked, "Are you nervous about discussing marriage with Xuanyan Mansion today?"
"I'm not nervous, and Lu Sumu also likes me, so marrying into the Xuanyan Mansion shouldn't be a problem."
After Lu Sumu helped the Ji family gain a foothold in the past few days, he often sought out Ji Jingyi for secret meetings. The two of them were like a young couple in love, and they would spend time together whenever they had time.
Just two days ago, when the two were having dinner in a restaurant, Ji Jingyi asked when they would discuss the wedding.
After a long silence, Lu Sumu said that he would discuss it with his family first and then give her an answer.
After he finished his meal, he went back home and discussed Ji Jingyi's matter with his father, grandfather and elders.
Finally, let the Ji family come to Xuanyan Mansion today to have a face-to-face chat.
After learning about this, the Ji family couldn't sleep at night. They packed up early in the morning and brought gifts to Xuanyan Mansion to discuss the marriage.
The door opened again, and this time it was Lu Sumu himself who came to greet them. He said with a smile, "Uncles, and Jingyi, let's come in and have some tea."
Ji Jingyi skipped over to him and put his arm around him, being extremely affectionate.
Entering the mansion, the first thing that caught my eye was a broad bluestone avenue that led straight to the main hall. Both sides of the avenue were planted with exotic flowers and plants.
Several people walked happily, admiring the beautiful scenery of the mansion along the way.
Finally, they arrived at the main hall of the mansion.
After entering the main hall, everyone saw that it was already filled with more than a dozen people.
Among these people, there are both young and handsome boys and girls, as well as old people with haggard faces and a sense of vicissitudes of life.
The old man in the lead was wearing a Taoist robe as white as snow. He was tall and thin, and stood as straight as a spear.
When he saw everyone coming in, he immediately stood up from the first seat and walked forward with steady steps.
"You must be the old and young of the Ji family that Su Mu often talks about, right? Welcome to my humble home." The old man's voice was bright and powerful.
Ji Wuchang saluted the old man and exchanged polite greetings with him.
Then, under the gaze of more than ten pairs of eyes, Ji Wuchang calmly walked to the second seat from the right and sat down.
At the same time, Ji Jingyi and Lu Sumu sat in the last few seats with several other young talents.
After everyone was seated, the old man introduced himself: "My name is Lü Qiyuan, and I am Su Mu's grandfather."
Then, he extended his left hand, pointed to the first seat on the right, and introduced: "This is Su Mu's father, Lü Huaicai."
After a brief pause, he pointed to the opposite side and continued, "This is Su Mu's aunt, Lü Huaiying."
Ji Wuchang and Ji Wuhen stood up and greeted the Lu family's direct and collateral branches and elders one by one...
After a brief acquaintance, Lu Qiyuan went straight to the point and said, "We all already know that Su Mu and Jing Yi are in love."
Ji Wuchang took a sip of tea and asked softly, "They are very affectionate and in love with each other. We are here to discuss this matter today. I wonder what you think of this marriage?"
Lu Qiyuan laughed and replied, "Since they love each other, then there is no reason for me to disagree.
But…” He paused, then continued, “Would your daughter be willing to be my concubine?”
As soon as these words were spoken, Ji Wuchang, who had been smiling, froze instantly and his expression became very ugly.
His gaze turned to Ji Jingyi, revealing an indescribable helplessness and worry in his eyes.
