Chapter 1344 Fate

Zhulan waited for Zhou Shuren to come back from the yamen and told him about the Lin family's intentions and Miss Lin's good points.

Zhou Shuren laughed, "You think so highly of Miss Lin, so she must be really good."

He knew best how high his daughter-in-law's standards were.

Zhulan handed the clothes to her husband, "I really think Mingrui and Miss Lin are a perfect match in every way, especially their looks. I'm looking forward to it."

She admitted that her value increased a few points because of Miss Lin's appearance. She was glad that Miss Lin had always been chubby. If she had been thin and beautiful since childhood, she would not have waited until now to get engaged. She would have been discovered and engaged a long time ago.

Zhulan thought about it and said with emotion: "What is this? This is fate."

Zhou Shuren was stunned for a few seconds, not understanding why his wife was suddenly so excited. "Should I go and ask?"

Zhulan, "It doesn't matter whether you ask or not. Changyi and his wife will find out everything."

Zhou Shuren stroked his beard, "If it really goes through, it will be a good match. The Lin family will be able to help Mingrui in the future, and it will also be beneficial to the second branch when we split up in the future."

This was the case in ancient times; the relationship between two families was not just about marriage.

Zhulan agreed, "Yeah."

Time passed quickly, it seemed like I was still talking about the provincial examination yesterday, and the results came out in a blink of an eye, and Wen Rong was the top scorer in the capital.

Mingteng was in the teahouse with his uncle and Mingrui. From their position they could clearly see what was happening below.

Ming Teng clicked his tongue twice, "I thought Wen Rong would remain calm, but look at how excited she is. She's really unlike the Wen Rong I know."

Chang Zhong, "He regarded his eldest nephew as his opponent. If his eldest nephew missed the big three, that would be Wen Rong's goal."

Ming Teng stroked his chin and said, "Wen Rong's luck is still good. Maybe it will come true this year."

Not only did the South take the lead in the last session, it almost topped the list. He couldn't even bear to look at the gold list of the last session.

Mingrui stared at the list and took a deep breath. It was too early for him to think about it now. He hadn't even taken the Tongsheng exam yet. "I don't know how Cousin Jiang Du's grades are."

Changzhong was also thinking, "It should be OK."

Ming Teng agreed, "If he doesn't get the first place, he will be among the first few."

The resources of their own boy are too good, but the pressure is also too great. They are afraid of bringing shame to the Zhou family, and Jiang Du, the grandson, cannot avoid it.

However, the Zhou family did not receive much attention this year.

Chang Zhong said, "Some of my family members are taking part in the provincial examination this year, and those who failed last year will also take part next year."

Ming Teng nodded. No one from the Zhou family took the exam last year. It was because the list was too bloody. It could be considered bad luck.

When they saw that everyone downstairs had dispersed, they stood up and walked downstairs.

Changzhong is short but of high rank, so he walked in front, followed by Mingteng, and finally Mingrui. There were quite a few people in the teahouse today.

Mingrui walked down the stairs for only two steps when he heard a cry of "ouch". Mingrui moved aside and thought the girl in front of him looked familiar, so he used the fan in his hand to stop the girl from falling.

Lin Qing's face flushed. She had only looked at Mingrui's profile and didn't see the step below her feet. One of her feet stepped on the edge of the step. If no one helped her, she would definitely break her foot.

Mingrui was secretly glad that he had been practicing martial arts all the time and that his wrists were strong, so he was able to use the fan to stop the girl.

Mingrui frowned and looked carefully at the girl who was already standing there. After confirming that she was not a scammer, he nodded and continued walking down.

Ming Teng was stunned. He was sure that if his brother didn't have a fan in his hand, Mingrui would definitely not use the fan to block it.

Well, if it were him, he would react the same way as Mingrui, fearing that it would be troublesome to commit fraud.

Lin Qing pinched herself secretly. She almost got embarrassed last time, and this time it was really embarrassing.

The maid was so frightened that her face turned pale. Fortunately, the young master knew the etiquette and did not reach out, otherwise she would not dare to think, "Miss, are you okay?"

Lin Qing was upset. If she hadn't been paying more attention, she wouldn't have gotten into this accident. Well, it was all because Zhou Mingrui was so good-looking. "I'm fine. Let's go back."

The maid helped the young lady downstairs. The movement on the stairs did not attract anyone's attention because Mingrui moved too quickly.

The maid helped the young lady sit in the car to wait for her master, and suddenly realized, "That is the young master of the Zhou family."

Ah, this fate. She heard that the young lady’s marriage was about to be decided. Only when it was nine out of ten, she would know about it, and she breathed a sigh of relief and once again lamented about fate.

In the Zhou family carriage, Chang Zhong had been silent until now, but now he spoke up, "The one just now was Miss Lin."

Mingrui was stunned. No wonder he thought she looked familiar. If she didn't look familiar, he wouldn't help at all. He just asked in confusion, "Isn't she the fat girl?"

He had his own thoughts about his marriage, and he had not been dragging on without getting engaged. Now that he had found the right person, he would not drag on any longer. After reading all the information his father had found, he finally gave in, and the two families had been in frequent contact during this period.

If nothing unexpected happens, Miss Lin will be his future wife.

Changzhong laughed, "You are too out of date. One time I happened to be in the main courtyard and saw Miss Lin. She was not so thin then, but now she is even thinner."

Just as Zheng Niang said, a handsome man and a beautiful woman make a perfect match. He could already imagine how pretty the baby would be in the future.

Mingrui responded, "Miss Lin recognized me just now, so she didn't watch her step?"

Ming Teng: "It should be."

Mingrui curled his lips and said, "Should I say it's a good thing I brought a fan?"

Changzhong and Mingteng looked at each other and both couldn't help laughing. It was indeed thanks to the fan, otherwise Mingrui would have just stood there and watched. Don't expect the boys from the Zhou family to be sympathetic to women. Based on the foundation laid by their grandmother since childhood, they would avoid suspicion whenever possible.

Mingrui doesn't like fans, but today he rarely brings a fan with him when he goes out. It seems that Mingrui and Miss Lin are really destined to be together.

In Pingzhou City, Jiang Du looked at the fifth place without much psychological fluctuation.

Jiang Sheng was very satisfied with his son's performance. "The competition in Pingzhou was fierce this year. This ranking is already very good."

Jiang Du smiled and said, "My son knows, Dad, I am also very satisfied."

Jiang Sheng was relieved. He was afraid that his son would compete with Mingyun. Fortunately, his son's personality was similar to his.

Jiang Du's thoughts drifted away, and then he couldn't help blushing. The day of his wedding after the provincial examination was getting closer and closer.

Jiang Sheng took his son home and said, "Let's stay in Pingzhou for two more days, then go back to Zhoujia Village to rest for a few days before returning to the capital."

His son is going to get married soon when he returns to the capital, and there are still many things to do. Jiang Sheng's head hurts just thinking about it.

At Zhou's house, Zhulan and Li were all waiting for news. Changzhong came in first and said, "Mom, Wang Wei is third, which is a good ranking."

Mingteng and his friends did not go to see Wen Rong's grades, they went for Wang Wei. After the provincial examination, the Zhou family was going to marry off their granddaughter again. These days, people carrying boxes could often be seen entering the Zhou family's mansion.

These were the last things the eldest daughter bought, and they were all unimportant but necessary things.

Ming Teng sat aside and said, "Yu Lu will belong to someone else in a few days."

Li glared, "You should be more careful not to irritate your sister if you know it."

Ming Teng was embarrassed. He just wanted his sister to be more relaxed at home, so he quickly changed the subject, "Mom, I prepared some makeup for my sister."
