FID – Chapter 426

Chapter 426: Propose Marriage

  Hearing the familiar voices, Fu Yuzheng almost thought she was dreaming.

  When she turned around, and a windy figure running towards her filled her eyes, she still felt that everything was surreal.

  ”Yuzheng, why are you working? Quickly put that down. Goodness me, you have to be careful at times like this. If you’re not careful, you’ll pull a muscle accidentally!” Grandma Liu rushed forward and grabbed the chicken feather duster from the woman’s hand. “Whatever you want to do, let me do it.. You are not allowed to lift your arms and bend over!”

  ”Grandma Liu?” Fu Yuzheng murmured incredulously.

  How could people thousands of miles away suddenly appear in the capital? And four of them at a time?

  Fu Yuzheng glanced at Liu Zhixia. He went out in the morning. He should have gone to pick them up with the King, right?

  So he knew that some people would be coming to the manor, but he didn’t reveal anything to her before. She didn’t know anything about it!

  Otherwise, she wouldn’t have forgotten her manners.

  After recovering, Fu Yuzheng helped Grandma Liu sit down and greeted the people with her one after another: “Grandpa Liu, Grandma Liu, Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu, I didn’t know you were coming. Otherwise, I would have come along to pick you up.”

  ”What for? Zhixia can pick us up. Yuzheng, come and sit down too.” Chen Xiulan sat down and asked Fu Yuzheng to sit next to her. Her eyes were softly glowing, carefully scrutinizing the woman’s face and body, with her eyes focused on her abdomen.

  The same was true for Grandma Liu.

  The two elders didn’t hide their gaze at all. They were ecstatic, which made Fu Yuzheng feel a bit of a chill in her abdomen. She subconsciously covered it up with her hands, and then a thought occurred to her. In an instant, a scarlet tint spread little by little on her jade white pretty face. 

  At the same time, it triggered a panic in her heart.

  Did Zhixia perhaps tell his family, and they all know about it?

  Seemingly sensing her panic, Liu Zhixia walked to her side and explained in a whisper, “I asked my parents to come over to propose marriage.”

  ”Yuzheng, do you know that we are here to propose marriage? Is that why your face is so red?” Liu Yusheng’s small head peeked behind Liu Zhixia, and she teased her.

  This time Fu Yuzheng’s face truly burned up.

  A marriage proposal? The elders of the Liu family had come all the way here to propose marriage to her?

  This knowledge made Fu Yuzheng at a loss for words.

  ”At first, we thought it was because of a conception. It can’t be true, right?” While she was in a daze, Qian Wanjin stroked his chin and walked around her twice. His eyes fell on her hands that were blocking her abdomen, thinking very seriously.

  Fu Yuzheng snappily hid her hands behind her back and said in shame, “What nonsense are you talking about, Young Master Qian?!”

  ”Then that means Zhixia is incapable. I have a lot of medicine here that can be used. If you need it, you come and get some from me later,” Xue Qinglian suggested.

  The women in the room all blushed. Qinglian, why was this kid’s mouth so unstoppable?

  Liu Zhixia wasn’t angered when his ability was questioned. Instead, he pulled the woman with him and sat down. “I’m okay. Keep your medicine for yourself. You’ve prepared those drugs at such a young age. You know your ability very well and deserve to be a divine doctor.”

  Xue Qinglian almost had a heart attack. The stone he moved smashed his own feet. It was so painful.

  No wonder Liu Zhiqiu, that fool, always lost a fight against his big brother.

  The elders who were sitting in as observers laughed and blushed.

  ”Zhixia, please entertain Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu for now. I’ll take Shengsheng away to arrange the luggage, ” Feng Qingbai said after the family exchanged pleasantries and then brazenly took Liu Yusheng and retreated.

  Arranging the luggage? This was a decent reason, so Liu Yusheng had no reason to decline helping him.

  Liu Dalin stared at the doorway where the silhouettes disappeared, shivering with anger, “Father, Mother, Wife, look at that stinky kid!”

  Who had not been young like him? Stop cooking up too perfunctory excuses!

  He was in such a hurry, yet his parents even put in a good word for him!

  After leaving the hall, at the corner out of reach of the people in the hall, Feng Qingbai turned around and kissed the young girl who was obediently following him.

  From the time he saw her outside the city gate, he suppressed himself the entire journey. He couldn’t even wait in his eagerness to embrace her in his arms!

  ”Feng Qingbai…Wait!…” Liu Yusheng’s heart was pounding in her chest, almost hanging to her throat.

  They were outside the hall, and her grandparents were only separated by a wall!

  They just had to walk out and could immediately see them there … How shameless!

  This kind of tension where they could be discovered by her family at any moment made Liu Yusheng’s legs weak.

  For four months, Feng Qingbai buried himself in all official business. But at night, he began to think of her madly.

  She had finally appeared in front of him, but the family elders were still in the way. 

  Endure? He couldn’t help it.

  He had no self-control in front of her.

  Feng Qingbai’s ears picked the sound of faint footsteps, so he stopped and moved quickly. He wrapped the petite woman in his outer robe, wrapping her airtight, and flew straight back to the Shengxiao Courtyard.

  The room that had been vacant for a long time was cold, but because two people suddenly filled it, the coldness in the room was swept away and was dispersed by the heat.

  The people in the hall were temporarily left behind at that moment.

  Qian Wanjin supported his jaw with one hand and sighed at the empty doorway. He could also be considered an experienced hand. Although he had no practical experience, he clearly saw it just now. The way Feng Qingbai looked at Lucky Nannan was akin to a dog seeing a bone in the village .

  Tsk-tsk, how can Lucky Nannan resist?

  Then another face came to his mind. Qian Wanjin was unable to sit still.

  What am I still doing here?

  He had returned to the capital. This was the capital. Xiao Shitou didn’t know he was back yet. He must show his face and let her know that Master Qian was back!

  ”Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle Liu, Aunt Liu, I’ll go home first. After we send Zhixia to the exam tomorrow, I’ll pick you up and have you all as guests at my house.”

  ”Eh, okay. Go home for now. Say, you’ve been away from the capital for a few months. Go back and see your family. We’ll talk about other things tomorrow.” As soon as Grandpa Liu gave the word, Qian Wanjin rushed out.

  Inside the hall, Grandma Liu and Chen Xiulan were focused on Fu Yuzheng and didn’t spare him any attention. 

  As soon as Qian Wanjin left, Xue Qinglian also dashed back to the Liuyun Pavilion and collapsed on the bed. In the next second, he fell into a deep sleep.

  After a month of riding in the carriage with the elders of the Liu family, his lazy bones had no place to lie in the car. He almost died from the tossing and turning.

  If Lucky Nannan wanted to go on a return trip like this in the future, he’d better build a big carriage by himself. One person alone in a carriage. When he was on the way, he could sleep and lie down whenever he wanted.

  He was too old to withstand the torment.

  He would not leave until he had learned all of Lucky Nannan’s things thoroughly. He wouldn’t leave even if he were to be beaten to death.
