"We are all family relatives, yet it has become like this..." Song Jing sighed, staring at Song Lan and said, "You are not the only one sitting in the carriage when you go to Bishuitang every day. Do you think your father doesn't know who you are dating now? You are not a child anymore, and marriage should be put on the agenda. If I hadn't seen that you already had an idea, I would have asked you to go and see a date recently. Would I have let you stay at home?"
Song Lan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Song Jing had been paying attention to what he was doing.
Song Lan scratched his head and lowered his voice, "But she never said she liked me..."
"If someone didn't like you, who would ride in your carriage for a month? You are so bold to pretend to be ignorant in front of your father." Song Jing glared at his disappointing son and said coldly, "You really don't have any of your father's integrity. If you don't come to propose marriage again, your father will be ashamed for you."
Song Lan paused in place for a long while before replying, "I see, father. Do you agree?"
"Why not? I wish you could get married soon. The Lu family is also a wealthy family. You would be a perfect match if you marry her." Song Jing glared at his son, "Get lost now!"
Seeing this, Song Lan quickly rolled out of the study.
What Song Lan didn't know was that the Lu family was also anxious and angry.
Madam Lu now looked at her daughter and frowned, "I heard that a cousin has come to the general's mansion, and she is much prettier than you. If you still can't get Song Lan, I'm afraid you will have to give her away."
Lu Zijun was now very calm, and just smiled and said, "She is someone else's cousin, you shouldn't covet your cousin, right?"
"Silly child, you don't have the same surname. There are many examples of cousins marrying cousins throughout history." Madam Lu poked Lu Zijun with her finger and said in a deep voice, "It's been more than a month now, and I haven't seen any splash between you two. You're getting older every year, so we can't delay any longer."
Lu Zijun curled her lips and said in a low voice, "People call me a fierce woman in Beijing. It's normal for Song Lan to look down on me."
"You still know that others call you a fierce woman in the capital? I hired so many masters to teach you the rules since you were a child, but you drove them all away." Mrs. Lu became angrier when she thought of this. "Your brother is the same. He just doesn't want to get married. You two really want to piss me off to death."
Seeing that Mrs. Lu looked angry, Lu Zijun hurriedly said, "Madam, I will definitely think of a way to find out what Song Lan has to say. He is not young anymore, and he has to start a family and build a career."
"If you don't think of a solution quickly, and just wait for Song Lan's cousin to make a move, you'll have nothing." Madam Lu glared at Lu Zijun, wanting her to be more anxious, but Lu Zijun didn't know how to fight for herself. "If it doesn't work out, I'll go to the general's mansion to propose marriage. It's better to lose face than to lose my son-in-law."
"Does his cousin really have this idea?" Lu Zijun was still very confused.
"You have a friend who knows Nan Hongqiu, and she has already helped to find out the truth. This Guan Surong is not Song Lan's biological cousin. She is just the granddaughter of General Song Jing's stepmother's sister. They came to the capital and did not live in the Song Mansion where the old lady was, but went to the general's mansion. What do you think they were thinking?" Mrs. Lu thought of this and glared at Lu Zijun, saying angrily, "Only you, who are as stupid as a pig, treat them as good sisters."
How could Lu Zijun not be angry when she heard this? She immediately stood up from her chair and was about to walk out, angrily saying, "Guan Surong, you actually came up with this idea? I treated her sincerely, but she dared to steal my person? Look, I'm going to scold her to death."
"You went to the General's Mansion to curse people? Do you still have any shame?" Mrs. Lu was now angry and pushed Lu Zijun back to the chair. "Now you have to find a way to control Song Lan instead of trying to fight with this little hoof."
Lu Zijun sighed, "How can I control it?"
Madam Lu glared at Lu Zijun and suggested, "Tell him to come and propose marriage as soon as possible."
Lu Zijun lay on the table with a sad face, "Now the window paper hasn't been broken, how can I scream?"
Madam Lu looked at Lu Zijun and spoke slowly, "Then you should explain it to him clearly. If he doesn't agree, you don't have to waste time and I can find another family for you. If he agrees, wouldn't everyone be happy?"
"Ah?" Lu Zijun hesitated, then looked at Madam Lu and said, "If he doesn't agree, it will be so awkward when we meet in the future..."
The two were arguing when the mother outside came in happily to report, smiling at Mrs. Lu, "Madam, Mr. Song from the general's mansion is outside now. He said he wanted to take our daughter to buy some pens, ink, paper and inkstone for study."
Mrs. Lu also became happy after hearing this. "Speak of the devil. This is a good opportunity. Let's pack up and go talk to Song Lan."
"Mother..." Although Lu Zijun was a little hesitant, she still dressed up and stood in front of Mrs. Lu shyly.
Madam Lu looked at Lu Zijun's dressed-up appearance and finally nodded happily, "Yes, go quickly, don't make people wait anxiously, remember what your mother told you."
Lu Zijun responded and walked out of the door in small steps.
Song Lan was standing next to the carriage, still wearing the same crimson purple brocade dress that he wore when they first met.
Song Lan is not like Yin Yichen, who looks like a powerful official. A general naturally looks like a general, but because he is not very old, he can easily stand out among the crowd of men. Moreover, he and the beautiful Song Wanning are from the same mother, so his appearance is naturally not bad.
Nowadays, most of the ladies in Shengjing like gentlemen like the third place winner, but Lu Zijun likes a general like Song Lan. She looked at Song Lan and became more and more happy. It might not be difficult for Song Lan to find a marriage partner, but now he still has no engagement.
Song Lan stood in front of Lu Zijun, looked at her, and laughed softly, "What are you looking at?"
Lu Zijun came back to her senses and whispered, "Nothing? What do you want to buy? You actually went to such great lengths to ask me to come out."
"It's just a cover. I'm going to take you to see something good." Song Lan watched Lu Zijun get on the carriage, while he sat at the shaft and drove.
Lu Zijun lifted the car curtain to see Song Lan's back. He was tall and handsome. Such a man was really a good match. But now she was hooking up with her brother behind Song Wanning's back, and she hoped that Song Wanning would not be angry after she knew it.
Lu Zijun was feeling guilty when she saw Song Lan's carriage heading towards the horse farm in the suburbs and finally stopped at the foot of the city wall.
