After entering the book, the cold prince begs for favor
Chapter 147 Why not pledge your love to me?
Yuan Wanru didn't move.
"Auntie, you go first. I'll wait for my husband to pick me up."
She is not the original owner, so it is difficult for her to fit in. It would be really strange if she remained indifferent when others were in tears.
It would be better to let Yuan Xinhui take the lead and cry with the Yuan family before she appears.
Yuan Xinhui couldn't wait to get off the carriage and rushed towards the old couple: "Father, Mother..."
Not long after, people outside really started crying.
Lu Jiangnian opened the car curtain and looked at her softly: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
She felt homesick and Lu Jiangnian probably understood her feelings. He took her hand and squeezed it tightly, trying to tell her that he was always by her side.
Although what he thought was different from what she thought, she still couldn't help but feel moved.
This man is really considerate when he is reliable.
The Yuan family's grandparents must have heard Yuan Xinhui talking about her, and they were already running straight towards them with the support of their son.
Yuan Wanru relaxed her body and went forward to greet him: "Wanru greets Grandfather and Grandmother."
Everyone in the Yuan family was very excited, their eyes were red, and some wanted to cry.
Grandmother Lin looked at her lovingly, holding her hand, tears streaming down her face: "Good child, grandma really misses you, why don't you come back to see me?"
Yuan Wanru was really afraid that Lin would hug her and burst into tears. While she was still thinking about how to change the subject, Lu Jiangnian had already stood up: "Grandson-in-law Jiangnian greets grandfather and grandmother."
Grandson-in-law?
The Yuan family then realized that Yuan Wanru had already married Lu Jiangnian, the son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.
He wore a jade crown and black hair, and wore a dark brocade robe with gold-woven curling grass patterns. He had a very good complexion and outstanding facial features. His calm expression revealed a hint of coldness in his eyebrows and eyes. Just by looking at him, people felt that he was difficult to approach.
The son of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery sounds more powerful than a county magistrate.
The Yuan family has been poor for generations, and the highest-ranking official they have ever seen is the village head. Now, facing Lu Jiangnian's imposing appearance, they are a little at a loss.
The man in grey cloth, about thirty years old, was Yuan Shan. Afraid of being impolite and embarrassing Yuan Wanru, he hurried out to greet Lu Jiangnian: "Prince..., please come in."
Lu Jiangnian said politely, "Uncle, just call me Jiangnian. We are all family, so please don't be so formal."
Yuan Shan swallowed hard and smiled with difficulty: "Yes, you are right, please come in."
The posture is even lower.
Thus, what should have been a very passionate and heartfelt scene of recognition was abruptly extinguished by Lu Jiangnian's pressure.
Yuan Wanru knew that this guy did it on purpose.
He did not restrain his majesty at all. His eyes were as deep as the abyss, and he was noble and aloof, without a trace of softness. This face showed that he was a third-rank official with all his airs.
Not to mention the common people, even many officials in the capital would be frightened when they saw him.

The Yuan family's main hall, which was not very spacious, was full of people.
Lu Jiangnian sat beside Yuan Wanru with a majestic figure, drinking tea as if no one was around. His every move was indescribably elegant and graceful, showing his upbringing and manners.
The Yuan family members were afraid that their actions would reveal their shallowness and vulgarity, so they didn't even dare to drink a sip of water, feeling uneasy.
In contrast, Lu Jiangnian seemed like the master of the house, while the original host seemed like a guest.
Yuan Wanru just didn't want to act out a tearful scene with the Yuan family, nor did she want to bully them.
She smiled, breaking the eerie silence in the room. "Ever since I received the letter from my second uncle, I've packed up and rushed back. My mother-in-law said it's a rare opportunity for me to come back, and in my rush, I didn't have time to prepare much. I only prepared a small gift for you all. I hope you don't mind."
As she said that, she asked Aunt Pang to distribute the things she brought to everyone.
Wang Min is so good to Yuan Wanru, how could the gift she prepared be so insignificant?
What's more, Yuan Wanru bought a lot of things on the way, and the main room, which was already a bit crowded, was soon filled with various gifts.
Yuan Chengzhong, the grandfather of the Yuan family, was an honest farmer. Seeing the mountains of gifts, he repeatedly refused them: "These are not popular. There are too many. We can't accept them."
"My child, it's a rare occasion for you to come back. We are so happy to see you are doing well. These things are too valuable. We can't accept them."
Yuan Wanru said sincerely: "This is a gift from my mother-in-law. If you don't accept it, I won't be able to explain it when I go back."
"Since I've brought it all this way here, I can't take it back. Grandpa and grandma, just accept it."
Lin hesitated and said, "But it's too valuable. We can't afford it."
She didn't say the rest of the words. She was afraid that the Lu family would feel that the Yuan family had taken advantage of them and therefore dislike Yuan Wanru.
If a married woman gives money to her parents' home, her in-laws will always complain. She doesn't want to covet these things and bring disaster to her granddaughter.
Lu Jiangnian said solemnly with a stern face, "The Lu family will never take back anything they give away."
"If you don't accept it, do you look down on our Lu family?"
After these words were spoken, the Yuan family dared not say a word.
The official has spoken, so how dare they have any objection?
Since ancient times, the people have never fought against the officials, let alone these honest farmers, who are most afraid of the government.
Yuanshan said cautiously, "Then, just take it."
Yuan Wanru breathed a sigh of relief. It would be better if Lu Jiangnian's unapproachable, majestic and cold personality did not change before returning to Beijing. At least she could rely on him to keep things under control.
It’s not that she is cold-hearted, it’s mainly because of this awkward relationship that she is really worried.
After a stumbling dinner, grandmother Lin and second aunt Pan led Yuan Wanru and Lu Jiangnian to the three wooden houses side by side on the west side.
Lin said, "We saved most of the money you sent home."
"Two years ago, your second uncle specially arranged to build these three houses, just in preparation for you to come home and live there one day."
These three rooms are obviously larger and more imposing than the other rooms.
"Fortunately, my family made preparations in advance. Isn't this going to come in handy?"
Lin pointed at the items inside and said with a smile, "The furniture here is all new. Your grandfather specially asked a carpenter in town to make it for you. Take a look and see if you like it."
"Also, these quilts were made by your second aunt who bought the material. They've been there for two or three years. Every year, they're taken out to dry in the sun, but no one has ever used them."
"Okay, you guys take a break first. We'll talk about it tomorrow if there's anything."
After Lin left, Yuan Wanru fell silent.
Lu Jiangnian hugged her waist from behind and held her in his arms: "My lady, are you moved?"
She relaxed her body, snuggled in his arms, and said softly, "Not really, I just feel a little complicated."
Lu Jiangnian laughed, resting his chin on the top of her head: "I thought you were touched."
"Isn't my kindness to you comparable to these three rooms?"
"If you are moved, it should be because of me. Why not pledge your love to me?"
