When Lord Shen, dressed neatly, rushed to the front yard, 128 loads of betrothal gifts had already filled the yard to the brim. There was almost no room to step, and only an aisle was left in the middle.
At the end of the aisle, stood that beast in human clothing!
Fu Jiuli, a tall and graceful figure in black, nodded slightly and bowed to the old Marquis Shen. "Mr. Shen, I, Fu Jiuli, offer the entire Prince Li's Mansion as a betrothal gift to marry your daughter, Shen Nanxing. I sincerely ask for your approval."
His tone was extremely respectful, his posture extremely humble, and every move he made was impeccable.
Leng Feng and Leng Yue walked out from the side, each holding a black iron box. When they reached Lord Shen, they opened the box, revealing a thick stack of property deeds, land deeds, and banknotes, with a pitch-black key on top.
Leng Yue said: "Lord Shen, here are the deeds to all the manors, shops and restaurants under the name of the Prince's Mansion, as well as all the silver bills in the bank and the keys to the warehouse..."
"All the property in the Prince's Mansion will be used as a betrothal gift to Miss Shen, and will belong to her alone."
Old Marquis Shen's face was dark and blue. He didn't want to pay any attention to anyone from the Prince's Mansion, and he didn't even want to look at that beast in human clothing!
No wonder he spoke up for him in the court a few days ago, gave him a jade chess piece, and came to him every day to show his courtesy, play chess with him, and even cursed Hu Anguo with him...
He thought that he and he had similar interests and that he would have a little brother he could talk to in the future...but who would have known that he actually wanted to be his grandson-in-law!
He looked sullenly at the maids and servants standing by and said, "Why didn't you stop him and let him barge in so brazenly?"
The maids and servants looked at each other, and finally chose to bury their heads deeply, and no one dared to speak.
Who is that Nine Thousand Years Old? In all of North Vietnam, who dares to stop him? Do you think your life is too long?
Besides, even if I dare to stop it, I can't...
The scene was quiet for a while. Fu Jiuli still kept his hands clasped in greeting. Old Marquis Shen didn't even look at him. Although he didn't refuse directly, he seemed to be still angry.
Shen Nanxing, who was hiding behind the screen and peeking, became anxious. She stepped on Shen Ming's foot while he was not paying attention, and when he let go of her arm in pain, she ran away.
She lifted the hem of her skirt and trotted all the way to Old Marquis Shen. She hugged his arm affectionately and whispered in his ear, "Grandfather, I want to marry him."
Then, without caring about Lord Shen's reaction, she looked at Fu Jiuli, her eyebrows curved, and a smile flowed into her eyes, which were elegant and bright.
"Fu Jiuli, I am willing to marry you."
Fu Jiuli also glanced at the woman in red clothes with a bright smile, and curled up the corners of his mouth and smiled back at her.
Then he lowered his posture: "Lord Shen, I have admired Miss Shen for a long time. If I am lucky enough to marry her, I will cherish her and put her safety and happiness above my own life. I will protect her for the rest of her life..."
"Please help me, Master Shen."
Old Lord Shen looked at Fu Jiuli, then at his granddaughter, his expression slightly relaxed.
It's not that he doesn't believe him, it's...
Shen Ming also followed at this time, and whispered in the ear of Old Marquis Shen: "You just accepted the rolling jade chess from someone, and now you turn your back on me, that's not good..."
Old Marquis Shen's expression became even uglier.
Shen Ming continued, "Our family is known for its romantics. My younger sister has fallen for Fu Jiuli. If you insist on not letting her marry, I'm afraid she will have to become a nun for the rest of her life..."
Lord Shen: ...
Isn't that what happened to that woman? Unable to marry the man she loved, she trapped herself in Hanshan Temple for so many years, never wanting to return...
Thinking of this, the stubbornness in Old Lord Shen's eyes slowly relaxed.
He looked at his granddaughter: "Nanxing, you have to think it over carefully."
"Yes!" Shen Nanxing nodded heavily: "Grandfather, I will not marry anyone else in this life."
"Okay, okay..." Old Marquis Shen stroked his granddaughter's hair lovingly, and when he looked at Fu Jiuli again, his face became stern again.
"Remember what you said today."
"If one day you betray Nanxing..."
Fu Jiuli continued, "Please rest assured, Lord Shen. If this happens, I will commit suicide to apologize."
Shen Nanxing was originally smiling, but when he heard his words, his eyes suddenly became sore and he rushed over to cover his mouth: "Don't talk nonsense!"
In his previous life, he died in front of her grave. Although he didn't commit suicide, it was due to his deliberate indulgence...
In this life, she just wants him to live well.
