Miss Lu looked down on Xie Bufan's lazy and dandy appearance.
Calling him Brother Bufan was intentional.
The purpose was to make Zhaodi feel that this man, who accepted everyone, was not worthy of entrusting her life to.
So as soon as the two of them walked up the ladder, she deliberately kept a distance between them. As they walked, she saw some small purple wild flowers on the side of the road. She felt curious and wanted to pick a bunch.
She asked the maid to pick the ones on the left. She could have asked Guan Xiaochun behind her to help her with the ones on the right, but she felt that he was not familiar with the fruit. Thinking that he was the senior brother of the wife of the second young master of the Shen family, she did not want to trouble him and decided to pick it herself.
The stone staircase and the hillside beside the road were two or three steps high. She jumped down while holding up her skirt. The slope was uneven and she did not control her center of gravity well. She could not stand steadily after jumping down and was about to make close contact with the ground.
Guan Xiaochun, who was three steps behind her, paid close attention to her when she stood aside. When she saw her about to jump, she quickly shouted, "Miss Lu, be careful!"
He took two steps at a time and stepped forward, intending to stop her and do whatever she wanted himself, but Miss Lu jumped down without a second's hesitation.
Seeing that the man was about to fall after jumping down, he hurriedly followed him down and held the man up. The two of them stumbled a few steps along the slope. Then he reached out and grabbed a tree trunk nearby, which stabilized their steps and prevented them from falling!
Miss Lu grabbed the clothes on her chest in shock and was stunned for half a minute before she came to her senses. Seeing that the two were too close, she quickly distanced herself from them and looked at Guan Xiaochun with gratitude with a blushing face.
"Just now...thank you!"
The scene of the two hugging each other was seen by Liu Wanyun who was standing at the top.
She covered her mouth and laughed secretly, feeling like she had eaten a melon.
Boss Shen looked at him in confusion, "Is it funny?"
Liu Wanyun pulled his sleeve and gossiped, "Don't you think they're a good match?"
Boss Shen reassessed the two of them. "Are they a good match? Not necessarily! County Magistrate Lu would definitely not agree to his daughter marrying a constable!"
Liu Wanyun's blazing gossip fire was extinguished in an instant!
"Oh! You don't understand. I can't talk to you!"
I have to share this with my sisters. It's the story of a young lady from an official family and her bodyguard. This pairing is quite interesting.
The higher-ups have forgotten their original plan to bring Miss Shen and Senior Brother Xiaochun together.
Xie Bufan was walking in front, about a distance away from Miss Lu. When he heard the scream, he looked back and happened to see Guan Xiaochun saving people.
He quickly stepped back, wanting to help, but it was of no use!
After both of them had stood firmly, he stood on a higher stone staircase and saw the atmosphere between the two of them, and he also had a forced smile on his face.
"Sister Zihan, are you okay?"
Miss Lu pretended not to hear and ignored him.
Fortunately, Miss Lu's maid heard the sound and quickly flipped over from the other side of the stone stairs using both her hands and feet.
"Miss, are you okay? Are you alright?"
Miss Lu covered her still pounding chest and pretended to be calm, "It's okay! Let's go down!"
After climbing less than halfway, a few people returned to the place where they flew kites.
Lu Zihan's legs were shaking as she walked down the stone stairs, and she was barely able to walk down with the help of her maid.
After this scare, Miss Lu lost interest in playing anymore, so she called her brother and went home first!
The rest of the people flew kites for a while, climbed the ladder to heaven, went to see the waterfall, took a general tour of the scenery of Feiquan Mountain, and then went down the mountain together.
As soon as Mr. Lu left, Xie Linghui thought her brother's chance had come.
Unexpectedly, several young ladies of the Shen family had been monopolizing Zhaodi. Sometimes the eldest young lady was with Zhaodi, sometimes it was the second young lady, and then it was the third young lady.
In short, there will be no more chances.
The three brothers of the Shen family naturally knew the purpose of today's trip, and they were somewhat puzzled by their wife's behavior.
After returning home and having dinner, when the few of them were playing mahjong in Jingxinzhai again, Shen Laosan asked the questions in his mind.
"Yue'er, are you dissatisfied with Xie Bufan and don't want to match him up with Zhaodi?"
Zhang Xinyue looked up at Liu Wanyun and saw that she had no intention of objecting, so she replied directly, "Yes!"
"Huh? Why?"
In Shen Laosan's mind, although Xie Bufan's character is a bit impatient, he is the most loyal among this group of friends.
Like to be the boss and like to stand up for others!
Zhang Xinyue rolled her eyes at him. "How can someone who loves to spend his days drinking and having sex, and attract bees and butterflies, be a good person?"
Old Third Shen opened his mouth, wanting to defend him, but when he saw the look in his wife's eyes, it seemed that she was also quite dissatisfied with him. Then he thought about what had happened before, and he realized that he and Xie Bufan had frequent interactions.
Afraid of bringing disaster to myself!
He swallowed his words again.
Boss Shen suddenly said, "I've always felt that Xie Bufan is unreliable!"
Liu Wanyun smiled at him appreciatively, "My brother Dong is really sensible enough not to play with people like this!"
In an instant, Shen Lao San felt like a thorn in his back and dared not say a word!
Shen Lao Er, who was standing aside, studied the cards in his hand attentively. He finally figured out how to win the hand, and then he spoke.
“But, I think mother has a good idea to let the Shen and Xie families get married!”
Liu Wanyun argued confidently, "Zhao Di can refuse! How can you force her?"
The scene suddenly became quiet. The three brothers of the Shen family looked a little embarrassed, and each of them looked at their wife.
Wasn't it their mother who directly decided the marriage of the three brothers? There was no way they could refuse!
What's more, they are Madam Shen's biological sons, and Zhaodi is just a concubine's daughter, so she will not be allowed to make her own decisions.
Shen Lao Er was quick-witted and said with a smile, "I don't think it will necessarily be a bad thing. Look at us, we followed our mother's arrangements, and we are still harmonious and happy, aren't we?"
Zhang Xinyue blurted out, "How can it be the same?"
Shen Lao San was puzzled, "Madam, why is it different?"
The three of them had never considered the question of whether they liked each other or not. They just wanted to be together as three sisters. And since their brother was good-looking, had decent character, and came from a good family, in order to survive...
But how can I say this?
Liu Wanyun quickly replied, "Hasn't Auntie already made inquiries about the three of us? We know what kind of people we are. Of course, there won't be any problem for you."
"But Zhaodi's case is different. Why did they match her up when they knew he had problems? Once she marries him, her life will be ruined!"
Shen Lao San was still a little dissatisfied, "Why are you saying it so seriously? Xie Bufan is not an unforgivable person..."
Liu Wanyun looked at the three brothers sternly and said coldly, "If you have a daughter in the future, will you marry her off regardless of her character?"
