Chapter 815

815 Without an engagement, everything has its variables

The Li family asked the Gu family to stay for dinner before leaving because they said they would go to third aunt Gu’s place for dinner.

After li Muyan sent the Gu family off, he immediately went to ask ah Dong to get someone to set up the lanterns in his courtyard. His family had more money and more people, so it was not a problem to decorate his courtyard like a Lantern Festival in one day.

Li Shan went to give li Muyan some advice.

Li Muyan called Zhu Mingsheng over to help him set up.

When the sky turned dark, Li Shan was called away by Madam Xie and Madam li, leaving only li Muyan and Zhu Mingsheng. Zhu Mingsheng joked, ” “What you’re doing is so troublesome!”

Li Muyan looked at him in disdain.”You don’t understand. Be honest and help me!”

Zhu Mingsheng helped li Muyan draw the lanterns as he said,”Mu Yan, I have a way to improve your relationship.”

Li Muyan glared at Zhu Mingsheng and said,”don’t try to teach me the way your friends treat girls.” I don’t need it. ”

Zhu Mingsheng smiled and shook his head,”didn’t you say that Gu Nian hasn’t agreed to marry you yet?” Do you think this is reasonable? She’s been writing to you for so long, and she’s also read and accepted the love poems you wrote. What does this mean? it means that you’re in her heart. Since that’s the case, why don’t I agree to marry you?”

Li Muyan shook his head and said,”niannian wanted to test me.” Girls always want to find someone who is sincere to them, so I’ll just wait!”

Zhu Mingsheng waved his hand and said,”li Muyan, you really love Gu Nian, don’t you?” You want to marry her with the highest standards, don’t you? You don’t care whether she is the daughter of a scholar, a high scholar, or a scholar, right?”

“Of course,” li Muyan nodded without hesitation. Let’s not talk about the past. My Li family is rich and we are not afraid of the powerful in Qing Zhou. Now that I’ve reunited with my maternal grandfather and maternal grandmother, not only in Qing Province, but in the entire great Zhou, there aren’t many people worthy of my fear! So, I’m not like those ordinary people who need to rely on the Yue family. So, even if she’s just a village girl, I’m fine with it as long as I like her. ”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Zhu Mingsheng gave li Muyan a big thumbs up.”I’m impressed! I can’t do it. If that’s the case, don’t you want to marry Gu Nian on your eighteenth birthday? Three matchmakers and six betrothal gifts. According to the process, your family will prepare the betrothal gifts, and his family will prepare the dowry. Na Cai, Wen Ming, na ji, na Zheng, the date of the wedding, all of these will take at least half a year!”

“Didn’t you say that she was frightened by someone in the past? Was there a period of time when she didn’t like to be in contact with men? Can you guarantee that there won’t be any better men before she tests you? As far as I know, Xu Changfeng swore that Gu Nian had deep feelings for her. The son of the former county Magistrate of Taoyuan County, Cheng Rui. If he had said that he would marry Gu Nian instead of taking a concubine, you might not have met Gu Nian.”

“So, li Muyan, without an engagement, there are still variables. In my opinion, what you need to do now is to get her to agree to your marriage. Both your parents will decide on the marriage. This way, it’s good for both of you.”

Li Muyan wanted to refute Zhu Mingsheng, but he couldn’t.

Xu Changfeng and Cheng Rui were both famous students in Qing Province. They had also participated in cultural gatherings in the prefecture, so Zhu Mingsheng knew them.

But what was he going to do?

He couldn’t force niannian!
