"All we need to do is support her, take good care of ourselves, and put her mind at ease."
.......................
Meanwhile, as soon as Shen Muyang returned to his residence, Gu Yunrou came looking for him.
"Yang'er, you'll be twenty soon, long past the age when you should be considering marriage."
Although we've moved out of the Marquis of Yongyi's mansion, you've earned yourself a general's mansion.
This is already considered very good among people of the same age in Beijing, so we don't need to compromise too much when it comes to marriage arrangements. I just don't know if you have any thoughts on this?
Shen Muyang frowned.
"Mother, I just heard from the servants that someone came to propose marriage today?"
Speaking of this, Gu Yunrou was in a good mood. Now that her child was older, she was looking forward to finding him a suitable match, but unfortunately, she was anxious about finding a suitable match for him while her own child was not.
Seeing that her son hadn't objected to someone coming to propose marriage, Gu Yunrou immediately perked up.
Oh, yes, there is.
The girl's surname is Yang, and she is 16 years old this year. Her father is a fifth-rank civil official, and he is quite upright. Her family has a good tradition of integrity.
However, Yang'er, don't worry, I didn't agree, but I didn't refuse either...
"mother......................"
Shen Muyang became a little anxious when he heard that Gu Yunrou had not rejected the marriage proposal.
Gu Yunrou waved her hand to comfort him.
"Don't rush me, I haven't finished yet."
I know you have your own ideas about marriage.
But if you never discuss marriage, people will inevitably gossip. It didn't matter before, you're a man, so people can say whatever they want, you won't lose anything.
But now that Ningbao has returned to Beijing, even if you are careful about your frequent meetings with her, malicious people will still spread rumors.
No matter what others do, you absolutely cannot ruin Ningbao's reputation because of you.
Don't worry, your mother won't make any decisions about your marriage on her own.
Shen Muyang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
"Thank you, Mother."
Gu Yunrou smiled.
"Don't be so polite, Mother."
Yang'er, today Mother wants to talk to you about your marriage. Mother has a guess, but I don't know if it's right...
"Mother, just say what you want to say. We are mother and son, you are my mother..."
Gu Yunrou nodded.
"Alright, then I won't hide anything anymore, I'll just tell you directly."
Do you like Ningbao? Do you want to marry her?
"Smack!"
The water glass that Shen Muyang had just picked up fell back onto the table.
Hearing his mother's words, he panicked a little.
He had wanted to marry her since she was a few years old, and he had been waiting for her to grow up.
But he never dared to let anyone know what he was thinking, afraid that people would say he was abnormal.
Now that his own mother had pointed it out, he was a little flustered.
However, his panic only lasted for a moment. After calming down, Chen Muyang regained his cool and composed demeanor and nodded seriously.
"Yes, I like her and I want to marry her."
