Chapter 33 I came to the wall to see him
Shen Yuheng's eyebrows were distant, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly. He said, "My grandfather and the two masters are old friends. In the early years, the two old gentlemen traveled with my grandfather to the south of the Yangtze River and left behind many works, which were also taken back home by my grandfather for collection."
"When Madam Qiao returns from Qingcheng Mountain, we can organize a poetry and painting party. Please invite Lord Lu and Madam to go with us."
Lu Qiaoxiao didn't need to look to know that the joy on Lu Yong's face could no longer be suppressed.
He often claims that he disdains to have private relationships with people, but isn't this also using favors to satisfy his own selfish desires?
Lu Yong happily held a handful of books in his pockets and refused to let go. He turned around and said to Shen Yuheng with a smile, "Prime Minister Shen may be young, but he is polite and well-mannered. He is a role model for the younger generation. It is a blessing for my daughter to marry you."
"I agree to this marriage."
Lu Qiaoxiao's mouth twitched. Those calligraphy and paintings would be priceless after a hundred years. It would be better to leave such good things to Lu Yong.
It's a bit of a waste after all.
Shen Yuheng immediately stood up to express his gratitude, with a barely noticeable red tint on the tips of his ears.
Lu Yong asked with concern, "Why don't you stay here and have breakfast before leaving? Let the kitchen prepare everything in advance."
"Should I call my daughter out right now? After all, we're engaged, so it's not against the rules."
Lu Yong carefully watched the ancestor's reaction.
This is a rich son-in-law.
This is a ladder to climb the clouds.
Don't be negligent.
Shen Yuheng seemed a little hesitant. He suddenly thought of Lu Qiaoxiao's small but round face, which must be the result of getting enough sleep every day.
I didn't sleep all night last night and rushed here until dawn.
Maybe she's not awake yet?
Lu Yong is not a fool, how can he not see what Shen Yuheng is thinking?
He waved his hand proudly and shouted to the servant beside him, "Hurry up and go to Xiaoxiang Courtyard and invite the young lady over!"
Lu Qiaoxiao was frightened and quickly returned to his bedroom from behind the screen. He rolled up the quilt and pretended to snore.
Shen Yuheng frowned and said, "Forget it, Lord Lu, I came too early today. I have something else to do in my mansion later, so I'll leave first."
Lu Yong nodded and said, "That's fine."
He wondered in his heart what kind of girl would stay in bed until dawn. Shen Yuheng didn't even care about such unruly behavior.
This Prime Minister Shen is quite easygoing, not as harsh as previously rumored in the court.
The servant arrived at Xiaoxiang Courtyard shortly afterwards and asked Baizhi to wake up the young lady and help her get dressed.
"Hey, didn't the young lady get up a long time ago? And she fell asleep again?" Bai Zhi scratched her head in confusion, walked to the bed, lifted a corner of the quilt, and saw Lu Qiaoxiao curled up in a ball, neatly dressed.
Lu Qiaoxiao started yawning and sat in front of the dressing table, pretending to put on some rouge.
At this moment, Bai Zhi hurried over from the yard, breathlessly saying, "Miss! Miss! There's no need to rush! The Prime Minister is leaving!"
"Huh? What's going on?" Lu Qiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat, and she slowly put down the pair of jade earrings that she had picked up with her fingertips.
"Prime Minister Shen must be worried about you, young lady, and wants you to sleep a little longer!" Bai Zhi smiled meaningfully.
Prime Minister Shen seems to be a man who loves girls, much better than the Second Master Pei.
Suddenly, Bai Zhi felt a gust of wind blowing in front of her, and the person in front of her disappeared in an instant.
Shen Yuheng had just walked out of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion and felt a little annoyed.
When we parted last night, we clearly said we would meet today.
Moreover, the meeting on the day of engagement is of great significance.
But if I go back to have breakfast at this moment, it would be too deliberate.
He sighed softly, and even the morning sunlight seemed dazzling and annoying.
"Lord Shen!"
At this moment, a clear and pleasant call came from above, interrupting my long thoughts.
Shen Yuheng turned his head almost instantly, but met a pair of eyes filled with joy.
He saw a woman in a pink butterfly dress sitting on the wall, looking at him with a gentle smile, her legs dangling over the wall.
Her rosy white skin bathed in the warm sun is as lively as the shimmering spring water.
"Lord Shen came so early. We said we'd meet yesterday, so we've met now."
She held her somewhat nervous breath and took the initiative to bring the two closer together.
Last night, Shen Yuheng from Lianxiang Tower came to pick her up in person, giving her enough face. Before they parted, they said they would meet again today.
She came to fulfill her promise and leave a good impression on the adults.
The reason why she chose to climb over the wall was that by looking at Shen Yuheng from afar, she would not be scared by his cold and aloof aura.
Shen Yuheng tilted his head back slightly, pursed his lips, and looked somewhat pleased: "Would you like to come down and talk?"
What he meant was, how long are you going to stay on the wall?
Lu Qiaoxiao shook his head subconsciously: "No, Bai Zhi told me that it's more auspicious to see each other less often between the time of marriage and the day before the wedding."
She thought that even though it was just a marriage of convenience, she should hope for something good in order to help her and him solve their respective troubles.
There was another reason, which was that when she stood in front of him and stared into his eyes, she became nervous and hesitated.
Sitting on the wall, looking at and talking from afar, she felt much more at ease.
Shen Yuheng's mind moved slightly, and the hands hidden in his sleeves curled up unconsciously.
She didn't know that she was laughing happily while swinging her legs on the wall -
How attractive.
He already had an idea about the wedding date.
——
Lu Qiaoxiao returned to the room and took off all her hairpins, rings and jewelry. She recalled the stunning glimpse of the bright red figure through the gap in the screen this morning.
In her impression, including the previous life.
I have never seen him wearing such bright colors.
He always wears fresh and elegant plain clothes.
But what is surprising is that he looks so suitable in red today.
His elegant and noble appearance and the strong and bright colors complement each other, making his heavenly eyes and eyebrows engraved into people's hearts.
It makes people think of it from time to time.
Was she attracted by Shen Yuheng's beauty?
Lu Qiaoxiao felt that her heart was beating too fast, so she fanned herself away with her little hands.
"Miss, the master is calling you over now." Bai Zhi felt that the young lady was thinking about love and was smiling so shyly without realizing it.
When Lu Qiaoxiao walked into the front hall, she glanced at the breakfast on the table and saw that it was extremely rich. Her father smiled from ear to ear and called her over.
"My dear daughter, are you awake? Come, have dinner, and let me talk to you about something."
While Lu Qiaoxiao was secretly complaining about Lu Yong's snobbery, she took the millet porridge that Lu Yong personally served her.
In the past, when he had dinner with Wang's mother and daughter, he never waited for her.
Now, there is a time when Wang is punished so badly that he cannot be made public.
Lu Yong used the fact that Prime Minister Shen emphasized the clear distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children as an excuse to tell Wang Xiuwan not to come out to greet the guests.
Not to mention the troublesome and embarrassing Lu Xiuzhu.
Lu Qingyue hated Lu Qiaoxiao so much that she naturally didn't want to see her being so proud and complacent.
"Xiao'er, if you have time, let's go together to handle the handover of the shop and land in the next two days. Your father will definitely put your matter first." Lu Yong thought to himself, he already has these famous paintings and calligraphy, and all the money is just external things.
The most important thing is that money is too vulgar and does not match his incorruptible style.
Lu Qiaoxiao smiled sweetly and said yes. She raised her eyes and asked, "Where's my mother? When will Daddy be free to bring her back?"
Lu Yong's smile froze slightly.
