Zhou Zhongyi turned around and looked at Gao Di, "Cousin Gao, why do you always follow me?"

Gao Di scratched his head and said, "Second cousin, you, I..." He whispered a few words in his ear, and then looked at Zhou Zhongyi with anticipation.

Zhou Zhongyi was already like a cooked shrimp. "Cousin Gao, stop talking nonsense. Don't ever mention such words that would damage my reputation again."

Gao Di smiled widely upon hearing this, his white teeth almost blinding the eyes. "Is that so? Then I can go find the chief steward later."

After that, he turned around and left.

Zhou Zhongyi hurried forward with his eyes wide open, blocking him with his arms. "What are you doing? A man like you is looking for strange girls all day long. It's disrespectful!"

Gao Diyi looked innocent and said, "Second cousin, my cousin's wife said that I am not from South Vietnam, so I don't have to pay attention to the rules of South Vietnam, unless - well." He gave his second cousin a look.

Zhou Zhongyi stammered, "That's not allowed! You are from Luzon, and when you come to South Vietnam, you must act according to the rules of South Vietnam."

A carriage stopped beside them, and the curtain opened to reveal Lu Yun's smiling face. "What are you talking about? It's so lively?"

Zhou Zhongyi saw a hint of blue with his sharp eyes, and he was speechless and did not move.

Gao Di quickly interrupted, "My second cousin won't let me go to the head steward."

Lu Yun glanced at someone whose face was about to turn red as a monkey's butt, and smiled, "Cousin, your second cousin is teasing you."

Changing the subject, Lu Yun stretched out her voice, "Chief Steward, I'm your adopted sister. Strictly speaking, I'm not a member of the palace. Don't worry, I can go if I say so. I'll go soon!"

Zhou Zhongyi jumped up and down on the spot, "Oh, no, if he goes, I'll go too!"

Lu Yun covered her mouth in surprise. "Second Young Master, my master never said that you can't go. If you want to go, go ahead. But there are only four seats at the game, so you can only sit aside and drink tea."

After teasing Zhou Zhongyi, Lu Yun lowered the curtain and blinked, "You still haven't figured out what he's thinking?"

Dashou was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Sister, is it the same with you and Zhou Boli?"

Lu Yun coughed lightly. "I've always believed that when it comes to marriage, mutual affection is best. If only one person is interested and the other isn't, that won't work. You don't have to consider anything else. If you truly have such feelings, then do what you want to do. Life is short, but it can be filled with so many experiences, and love is indispensable."

Lu Yun paused, raised her hand and grasped Dashou's wrist, "It's easy to find priceless treasures, but hard to find a lover." Mutual understanding and love is the most precious thing in the world.

Dashou looked confused. "Sister, I don't know."

Lu Yun comforted her gently, "Don't worry, take your time."

When it came to Dong Pan's matter, Princess Gao's reaction was mediocre, but Sansitang acted extremely quickly, finding another daughter for Zhou Zhongyi just three days later.

It turned out to be Luo Er. Lu Yun was sitting on a low couch eating melon with Jiao Ying. As for Grandma Luo, the palace gave the reason that they discovered that she was secretly colluding with bandits to rob the caravan.

However, the Luo and Jiao families, who knew that there was something fishy going on, were frightened for a long time and only started to move around recently.

Jiao Ying thought of her aunt and Gong Jinjin, and felt mixed emotions, even a hint of pity. Only now did she understand the deep meaning of the princess' words.

If the two families had confirmed the marriage, she wasn't sure whether her aunt would have treated her harshly. Thinking of this, Jiao Ying felt a little scared. She took a sip of the warm tea to suppress her thoughts.

Lu Yun: "Come to think of it, Mrs. Gui has been dead for almost a year."

Jiao Ying couldn't hide her sigh, "Life is unpredictable. A lot has happened in the past two years."

Lu Yun pondered for a moment. "I heard you say a few words before. Luo Er...was ill for a while?"

She claimed to be ill, but was actually frightened. Jiao Ying, not knowing what she had in mind, pleaded tactfully, "Princess, Luo Er has never been favored by our aunt, and she's not very bright either. Please don't bother with her. She was indeed ill for a while after that incident, and she's become even more silent since she recovered, often sitting for the entire day."

Lu Yun said gently, "Don't worry, I know it in my heart. The reason I asked this question is also for the sake of the mansion."

Jiao Ying felt relieved and answered honestly, "She was indeed ill for a while, but she is well now. If it weren't for the Second Young Master, she would still be at home."

Lu Yun looked curious and asked, "Has Luo Er ever told you where my uncle takes her?"

Jiao Ying was puzzled, "Doesn't the princess know?" Lu Yun scratched her head secretly. What should she know?

Rushing to the next room, Lu Yun's mouth twitched as she looked at the two card tables in the main hall and Zhou Zhongyi, Gao Di, Luo Er and others sitting beside the card tables.

Luo Er held a dozen cards in his hand and dealt them in an orderly manner, looking confident and certain of winning.

The most amazing thing was that the person playing against Luo Er was Gao Di! Zhou Zhongyi sat happily opposite Da Shou, his face almost broken with laughter.

I wonder what the old prince would think when he saw this scene?

It was Hong Fei who saw Lu Yun first and stood up to greet her with a smile.

Luo Er reacted the most. His face turned pale. He stood up timidly with his head lowered. His voice was as soft as a mosquito's. "Greetings, Princess."

Gao Di didn't understand what was going on, so he just said hello and urged Luo Er to play his cards quickly.

Lu Yun felt that she was being presumptuous, so she said a few polite words and turned away.

In the evening, Cai He saw Zhou Zhongyi sneaking around the door. "Second Young Master?"

"Is there something?" Lu Yun took a sip of hot tea. She had been waiting for a long time.

Zhou Zhongyi smiled apologetically, "Sister-in-law..."

"Stop!" Lu Yun got goosebumps all over her body. "Second Master, if you have something to say, please speak directly."

Zhou Zhongyi chuckled and said, "Sister-in-law, could you keep a secret for me about what I saw today? I would be very grateful!"

Lu Yun smelled the sour smell of love for no reason. "Brother, I actually have something more interesting in my hand. Do you want it?"

Zhou Zhongyi subconsciously wanted to nod, but stopped himself and asked tentatively, "What does sister-in-law want?"

Lu Yun smiled and said, "I don't want anything. You just need to answer me one question."

Zhou Zhongyi's cheeks flushed slightly. "Hmm, could it be about the chief steward?"

"That's right!" Lu Yun nodded and said frankly, "What exactly do you think about my Dashou?" Boy, my Dashou is not as easy to bully as you think.

Zhou Zhongyi remained silent for a long time before a low voice rang out, "I, I want to marry her."

Lu Yun's eyes suddenly lit up, and she coughed a few times to make herself look more serious. "What's the reason?" Seeing Zhou Zhongyi's expression, Lu Yun added a reason and threatened him, "You know, I'm Dashou's only sister. If I don't agree, huh."

The handsome young man was silent for a moment, his shoulders slumped. "From childhood to adulthood, all the women I've met have liked Zhou Boli, but she's different. She can see my presence, even though—" Zhou Zhongyi's eyes sparkled with a strange light. "When Zhou Boli and I stand together, she'll still look at me first. I like this feeling."

Lu Yun was silent. What kind of love was this? If I told him that Dashou not only disliked Zhou Boli, but even somewhat disliked him, wouldn't Zhou Zhongyi regard Dashou as his confidant from then on?

The three views are consistent, and you always affirm that your partner is your soul mate!

Lu Yun was completely convinced. Lying on the bed, she asked Zhou Boli, "Do you think Dashou and Zhou Zhongyi are a good match?"

Zhou Boli frowned secretly, "Ayun, go to sleep."

Lu Yun raised her hand and touched the man's ear. "Husband, what do you think? Hmm."

Zhou Boli took the little hand that kept rubbing his ear into his palm, with a helpless look on his face, "I think it's okay." He didn't care at all about two people who didn't like him getting together.

Lu Yun chuckled and said, "I think it's not bad."
