Chapter 150: Kissing Aruo

Lady Wang was shocked when she saw Du Ruo recite the family rules word for word.

"Aruo, you are so well-behaved now!" Lady Wang exclaimed.

Du Ruo turned her head and glanced at Madam Wang, her brows full of impatience. She was about to turn her face away when she heard the teacher cough heavily.

"Miss Aruo, what should we do when we see our elders?"

Lu Lingyun sat on it and looked at her indifferently.

Du Ruo immediately calmed down and bowed to Madam Wang politely, "Greetings, Madam Wang."

"Wonderful, wonderful!" Seeing Du Ruo know how to perform formalities and greet, Lady Wang clapped her hands in approval. "I was saying you are amazing, Sister Lu. Now that this naughty boy is in your hands, he has to behave himself!"

Lu Lingyun took a sip of hot tea and said, "Aruo's brothers personally entrusted her to me. They will blame me if I don't teach them well."

When Madam Wang heard this, she smiled and said, "Sister Lu has worked so hard."

As she spoke, she waved her hands and the maid behind her brought her a gift box tied with a red knot.

"I came here today with Aunt A'ruo's message, asking me to thank you very much! Your help in taking care of A'ruo has saved her a lot of worries."

The gift box was opened, revealing a fine white jade swing.

The jade was of excellent quality, but the style was old-fashioned, and it was obvious that it was a treasure trove from Aunt Aruo's house.

"I appreciate the kindness, but forget about the gifts." Lu Lingyun declined.

"Sister Lu, please don't refuse. We all know that your wife is used to nice things and she definitely has plenty of them. But this is Aunt Aruo's gift. If you don't accept it, she will feel bad."

Hearing this, Lu Lingyun pondered for a moment, then gave Shuanghong a look and took it back.

After delivering the gift, Lady Wang looked at Du Ruo again and said, "Aruo, your aunt is really worried about you. If you are more sensible, we will find a good family for you so that she can put her mind at ease."

Du Ruo had lost her patience. She clenched her fists tightly and said angrily, "You guys make the decision. Don't ask me."

Having said this, she bowed perfunctorily and turned to leave.

At this time, Lu Lingyun said, "Aruo, please stay and listen as well."

Parents have the final say on their children's marriage. Du Ruo's aunt has already chosen Du Ruo's marriage partner, so there is no need for Du Ruo to be here to listen.

But Lu Lingjun didn't dare to make the decision behind her back.

After all, she is still a guest, and Du Ruo still has the same temper. If she dares to interfere in her marriage, she will blame her whether she marries well or not in the future.

Just ask Du Ruo to be there and listen. After all, the candidates were brought by Lady Wang and selected by her aunt. Let Du Ruo choose for herself when the time comes, and don't blame her in the future.

When Lady Wang saw Lu Lingyun keeping Du Ruo, she rolled her eyes and said nothing more. She sat down with a smile, "These three families are all old acquaintances of Aunt A'ruo, and they also like A'ruo."

Madam Wang took out three name cards and said, "This family belongs to Commander Xu of the Hundred Cavalry of the Capital Garrison Army. He is in charge of a battalion and is highly valued. His family background is also simple. There is only an old lady in the family. There is no one else. The only downside is that he is a little old. He is almost thirty now."

After hearing this, Lu Lingyun frowned slightly and asked, "How come Commander Xu is still unmarried at the age of thirty?"

"Commander Xu was promoted from the local level not long ago. He was previously at the border killing enemies in Jianye and had no time to focus on his children's marriages, so he delayed the process."

"Next one."

"The next family is not too bad in age. His family belongs to Liu, the leader of the East City Gate Guards. They are colleagues of A'ruo's uncle. The one who is seeing A'ruo is Liu's second son. He is only eighteen this year, but he had an accident while on duty two years ago and broke his leg. He is now recuperating at home."

When Lu Lingyun heard this, she frowned.

Madam Wang continued, "But Aunt Aruo told me that his father bought him a shop and will show him the business of the shop in the future. He also has an older brother who is working as a guard and will also help him in the future. "

Lu Lingyun: "...Next one."

"The last one is Yu Shiwei from the Yulin Army. He is in good health and of a good age. He is 21 years old this year. He is a good match for Aruo. His ancestors were marquises, but his generation no longer has any titles. However, he still has a lot of wealth. He lives in the south of the city and has a large courtyard with three entrances. I have seen him before. He is handsome and has a good temperament."

"This is not bad." Lu Lingyun reluctantly listened to the reliable one.

"I also think Yu Shiwei is not bad. The only drawback is that Yu Shiwei is a second wife. His first wife died of dystocia last year, leaving behind a pair of children."

Lu Lingyun: "......"

This person is either old, lame, or a widower.

Fortunately, she asked Du Ruo to stay and listen with her own ears. Otherwise, no matter who was chosen, Du Ruo would hate her to death!

I would definitely say she did it on purpose!

Du Ruo, who was sitting next to him, also felt furious when he heard this.

Just then, the servants came to report.

"Madam, someone from the Liu family is here."

"Oh?" When Lu Lingyun heard that Liu's aunt was coming, she felt that a savior had come to save the tense situation. "Please come in."

After a while, a nanny from the Liu family came in with a smile on her face.

"Cousin, good evening!"

"What can I do for you, Mammy?"

"The marriage of our eldest daughter has been decided! The eldest lady sent me to give you the invitation. The wedding will be held in a month. If you are free, come and take a look!"

After the hairpin banquet, Liu Qingping was promised to go out. Liu Qingshuang was still young, so the Liu family waited for a while and arranged a marriage for her first.

"Which family did Qingping marry?" Lu Lingjun asked with a smile in a happy mood.

"He is the only son of Zhang Shuzheng of Guanglu Temple!" Nanny Liu smiled happily, extremely proud.

After hearing this, Lady Wang's eyes lit up, "Oh! A sixth-rank official, the Guanglu Temple Director is an official with a very promising future!"

"Who said it wasn't true?" Nanny Liu couldn't stop laughing.

The official position of their Liu family is only the seventh rank, and they are all idle officials in the Hanlin Academy. This time, Liu Qingping was able to marry into the sixth rank Guanglu Temple Office, which is really a high-ranking marriage and a truly good match!

Moreover, the other party is an only son in the family, so he won't have the troubles that Lu Hanyi has. If he marries into the family, he will definitely be the mistress of the family in the future, in charge of the family's financial affairs.

The whole Liu family is satisfied with this marriage!

"Our wife went to see that young master Zhang. He is really a handsome man, with a graceful figure. He is only eighteen this year and has already passed the imperial examination. He will also take the imperial examination in three years. Our cousin said that young master Zhang will definitely pass the imperial examination in the future!"

"What a talented young man!" Lady Wang couldn't help but say, "He's a perfect match for your eldest daughter!"

"Thank you, Madam Wang! If you are free that day, please come along!"

"Of course, of course."

Lu Lingyun accepted the invitation, asked Shuanghong to give the Liu family's nanny a gift, and sent someone to deliver it personally.

After the people left, Madam Wang said excitedly, "I've seen the two little girls in your family. They are so good! Each one is more cute and adorable than the other. Those who want to marry them will definitely come to them!"
