Chapter 143: The Widow with Many Troublesome People (11)
In the quiet study, Feng Chu really wanted to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
He knew that it was not easy to ask for Mu Zhou's hand in marriage, and Chu Jinyao, as a mighty general, would not necessarily interfere in such a small matter.
So he made sufficient preparations and thought of many excuses.
But the general didn't ask any more questions and just asked him to stand up.
Silent pressure enveloped him, and it seemed that something was different.
He always felt that the general at this moment was completely different from his usual cold and ruthless self.
It seems... to be emitting a strong sense of hostility.
Feng Chu couldn't help but straighten his back a little more.
After a few moments, a long voice was heard:
"You are not suitable."
"why?"
Feng Chu asked subconsciously.
He was puzzled as to why the general was just like those old stubborn people.
Do you mind Mu Zhou's identity as a widow?
But so what if she is a widow? Our dynasty encourages widows to remarry. What's the big deal?
Or does she think her late husband was a good brother who saved him?
Even if it really causes controversy, he will have to bear it. He was the one who couldn't help but fall in love first, and he is willing to bear all the consequences.
Feng Chu restrained his expression and knelt down again:
"Please help me, General."
Chu Jinyao narrowed his eyes, his eyes darkening a little:
"There's no room for negotiation on this matter."
"General..."
Feng Chu's face changed drastically. He didn't expect the general to be so heartless. He couldn't help but blurt out:
"General, you may not understand the depth of love, the joy of admiring someone, or the desire to marry a woman, but I truly..."
The guard beside Chu Jinyao suddenly jumped in shock and subconsciously blocked the young general's mouth.
Others may not know, but he doesn't know that his general visited the girl's boudoir at night.
He quickly glanced at Chu Jinyao, who had a grim expression on his face, and had the struggling Feng Chu carried out of the study.
The door was closed again.
There was no warmth on Chu Jinyao's handsome face, and a hint of anger was surging in his eyes.
It took a while before I managed to calm down.
He didn't want to wait any longer, so he took the memorial and left the general's mansion.

With the imperial examination approaching, Liang Wei became more attentive to Liang Bei, fearing that he might feel unwell.
Originally, she planned to tell Liang Bei about their engagement earlier, but thinking of the upcoming imperial examination, she held back.
In the previous life, Liang Bei's emotions fluctuated greatly after he found out, and he was very repulsive to her. She was afraid that knowing it in advance would affect Liang Bei's exams.
She was going to be the wife of the number one scholar, so there couldn't be any mistakes.
So she decided to bear with it for now.
But she had also made up her mind that when the results were announced, she would cling to Liang Bei so that even if Chu Caiyan saw her, she would think Liang Bei had a fiancée.
She knew that Chu Caiyan was a proud person and would not do something like stealing someone else's husband. This was the case in her previous life. So when she told her about her engagement with Liang Bei, Chu Caiyan took the initiative to cancel the engagement.
Thinking of the future life of the top scholar's wife, Liang Wei couldn't help but smile.
Liang Bei happened to come out and saw her holding a bag of rice, so he took it.
"Wei'er, I said I would buy some rice after I finished my studies. The rice is so heavy, it's hard for you to carry it."
Liang Bei is really a good brother.
Even though Liang Wei had been indifferent to him since childhood, he always regarded himself as his older brother, especially after his parents passed away, he took on the responsibility of being the pillar of the family.
Thinking of this, Liang Wei hated Chu Caiyan even more. If it weren't for her, Liang Bei wouldn't have come to that point with her.
Mu Zhou happened to go out and saw the brother and sister.
She took the initiative to step forward and say hello, and Liang Bei politely returned the greeting.
Following Liang Bei's eye signal, Liang Wei reluctantly followed suit and said hello.
After a period of testing, she discovered that Mu Zhou did not seem to be a reborn person.
She thought that perhaps her own rebirth had caused some changes, which was why Mu Zhou was able to survive.
But seeing that Mu Zhou is still fickle, it is likely that he will be drowned sooner or later.
However, she was a little worried that Mu Zhou actually knew Chu Caiyan.
Fortunately, Liang Bei doesn't go out often on weekdays and basically reads, so the chances of the two meeting are relatively small.
Liang Wei urged Liang Bei to go home. Mu Zhou watched Liang Bei and his sister getting along with each other in a measured way, and realized that Liang Wei probably had not yet confessed her engagement.
Coincidentally, a carriage came from a distance.
Mu Zhou stepped forward and said, "Cai Yan, you're here."
Liang Bei subconsciously looked back and saw a woman in red getting off a horse.
For a moment, he seemed dazed.
Chu Caiyan didn't even look at him, she stepped forward and took Mu Zhou's arm: "Look what good things I brought you."
She held up the basket in her hand to show off, and inside was a layer of red lychees.
"It was sent swiftly from the south over eight hundred miles. The emperor rewarded my uncle with a basket. When he learned that I was going out to meet a friend, my uncle gave it all to me."
Chu Caiyan felt that her uncle had become much more humane after returning to Beijing this time.
For example, this time, when she got something good, she actually thought of giving it to her, and also asked her to try it with her best friends.
Mu Zhou smiled, and caught a glimpse of the surprise in Liang Bei's eyes and the panic on Liang Wei's face.
She suddenly called out to the two of them, "Brother Liang, Sister Liang."
There happened to be other neighbors chatting outside, so Mu Zhou introduced the two of them to Chu Caiyan:
"The Liang brothers and sisters and I are from the same village."
Liang Wei wanted to leave quickly, but Liang Bei, contrary to her wishes, did not follow her wishes. Instead, he came to Mu Zhou.
"It's Miss Chu. I'm honored to meet you."
Chu Caiyan recalled the conversation between the brother and sister that day and did not have a good impression of them.
Although the brother seemed to know some sense, she didn't like her sister because she was too rude.
So she just nodded coldly.
My neighbor Aunt Qin grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds and couldn't help but ask while eating them.
Mu Zhou had never mentioned it before, and Liang Wei wished no one knew, so no one knew that they were from the same hometown.
Mu Zhou also talked about the past enthusiastically.
"...Speaking of which, the Liang family's parents passed away a long time ago. When Brother Liang was about to go to the capital to take the imperial examination, Sister Liang was unwilling to come with him, saying that the journey was too long and too tiring. At that time, the relationship between the Liang brothers and sisters was so cold that they hardly spoke to each other. I didn't expect that they would suddenly change their minds."
Luze Village is far away from the capital, and it is a question whether the scholars who are taking the exam can arrive safely, not to mention the hardships they have to endure along the way. Liang Wei in her previous life did not want to take any gamble.
However, in this life, Liang Wei knew that Liang Bei would definitely win the top spot, so she naturally wanted to follow him.
After being pointed out by Mu Zhou, Liang Wei couldn't wait to explain, but was blocked by Mu Zhou:
"However, Brother Liang is well-educated and will surely achieve fame and success. When the time comes, he will marry a wife. Sister Liang will have a sister-in-law to keep her company, and life will surely be less boring."
Liang Wei's face turned pale instantly, and she couldn't control her voice for a moment, and said sternly:
"Don't talk nonsense! There's no such thing as a sister-in-law."
As soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of the people around him changed.
Even Liang Bei, who was immersed in Chu Caiyan's beauty, became a little more sober.
He frowned and looked at Liang Wei: "Wei'er, don't talk nonsense."
Mu Zhou also said: "Sister Liang, what are you talking about? Brother Liang will find you a sister-in-law eventually."
