Yuan Wanru got on the bed and lay down steadily. Lu Jiangnian lifted the quilt and moved closer to her, habitually reaching out to hold her in his arms.

He unconsciously reached out and stroked her soft palm, which was smooth and delicate. The petite girl in his arms exuded an alluring fragrance, sweet and lovely.

Thinking of the alluring curves beneath the quilt, he couldn't help but turn over and cover her. His dark eyes were as deep as the sea, making Yuan Wanru's throat dry. "What are you doing? Get off. I want to sleep."

Lu Jiangnian raised his eyebrows, lowered his head and kissed her small lips, licking and teasing. Yuan Wanru nervously grabbed the quilt, curled up her toes, trying to escape his passion.

"You know clearly that... you can't... why don't you just calm down?"

He didn't say anything, but instead gave her a series of kisses. His warm body temperature made Yuan Wanru feel warm all over. In the mottled light and shadow of the bed curtains, the man's hawk-like eyes were full of desire.

Lu Jiangnian wanted to take a peek at her beauty under her pajamas, but he found that the collar of her pajamas was extremely high and tightly fitted, so tight that he couldn't even see her collarbone.

He asked helplessly, "It's time to go to bed, why are you still dressed so tightly? Aren't you uncomfortable?"

Yuan Wanru sneered: "I'm just scared of you. I'll dress warmly so you don't lose control of your eyes and hands."

He tugged at her collar and chuckled, "I tore this little bit of fabric with one hand. My lady really underestimated me."

As he spoke, his fingertips moved downwards, landing on a soft mass. He looked at her with an ambiguous expression, "If it weren't for your discomfort right now, this dress would have been completely ripped to pieces by now, and nothing would have been able to hold it back."

His gaze stopped here, and he just felt a little thirsty.

I haven't looked closely for a few days, and it seems to have grown a little?

Probably not.

He thought about it without moving his eyes away, and saw Yuan Wanru blushing. He couldn't help but pull the quilt in front of him and said, "Okay, go to sleep quickly. My period will last for ten days, and I don't know when it will end. You should cultivate your body and mind first."

As she said this, she pushed the person on her away, lay down on her side, and didn't want to pay attention to him anymore.

Lu Jiangnian grinned silently. Are you trying to trick him?

In this case, we can't blame her for catching her off guard.

Last time I told her, he had a villa with green bamboos by the window, and he would go there sooner or later to try it out.

He remembered that the clump of bamboo was ice-green bamboo, evergreen all year round.

While the weather is not too cold, take my wife over there and enjoy some sex there. It must be wonderful.

When I woke up the next day, Lu Jiangnian had already left.

While Yuan Wanru was having breakfast, Cao Lanxin came to her house.

"You're here so early?"

Cao Lanxin walked in with Fangfei. She smiled very gently. Seeing Yuan Wanru, she said affectionately, "I'm sorry to bother you, cousin. It's just that I have something important that I need your help with."

As she spoke, she looked around, her meaning very clear.

Yuan Wanru waved her hand and asked everyone except Liu Yan to leave.

"What's the emergency, cousin?"

Cao Lanxin didn't beat around the bush and asked Fangfei to put the brocade box on the table. When she opened it, she saw that it was full of banknotes.

"Cousin, here is thirty thousand taels. Please help me with what I said last time as soon as possible."

Yuan Wanru looked at her in surprise. "You are not old now. Getting married is a lifelong event. Why are you in such a hurry? Lu Yun, Lu Miao, and Lu Rong are all of marriageable age. You sisters are surnamed Cao. You can't skip over them."

Cao Lanxin understood this principle, but she had a bad feeling.

"To be honest, cousin, I heard from my great aunt's servants yesterday that Liang Yusong's words were cryptic, and she seemed to be trying to set me up with her brother. My great aunt was very happy."

Yuan Wanru didn't expect that Liang Yusong would reveal this meaning so early.

"The Liang family is a noble family. Isn't this a good marriage? Liang Yusong really likes you."

Cao Lanxin said sarcastically, "I don't know what she's up to. Cousin, let's be honest, although my sisters and I would like to find a marriage through our great-aunt, we don't dare to think about a marriage with a family that's too high-ranking."

"She's a very cunning person. I was surprised at first. Even though the Liang family was right next door, she insisted on staying at the Lu family under the pretext of helping her great-aunt with her medical treatment. It turns out that the Liang family came here just for my cousin."

Otherwise, why would Liang Yusong's parents write a letter to Lu Song on purpose?

The Lu family was reluctant to refuse Liang Yusong's favor because he saved Old Madam Lu, but this kind of thing was very strange in itself.

Yuan Wanru echoed: "Yes, the Liang family's calculations are really loud, but the old lady likes her and insists on keeping her, so it's hard for others to say anything."

Cao Lanxin continued, "How could a family like the Liang family, without some hidden agenda, even think of marrying a merchant's daughter?"

"I'd like to ask my cousin's wife to help me find out about her brother's character and dissuade my great-aunt from this idea. Also, please take care of our sisters' marriage."

"Thirty thousand taels is the deposit. After the deal is done, the remaining seventy thousand taels will be paid in full, not a penny less."

The Cao family was wealthy and had no shortage of money. She had been reluctant to let Yuan Wanru take advantage of her because it was not profitable.

Now that she wants to follow Yuan Wanru's path, she won't be stingy with the money.

Yuan Wanru sighed, no wonder Liang Yusong was willing to let his brother marry Cao Lanxin, this was simply a treasure trove.

In the book, perhaps because Cao Lanxin was not wary of Liang Yusong, or perhaps because she was deceived, Cao Lanxin actually married into the Liang family.

"Okay, since you trust me, I'll take the money."

"However, you can make friends with Liang Yusong. Who knows, I might need your help to plot against her again in the future."

Cao Lanxin hesitated. "I'm afraid that if I do this, my great-aunt will be even more determined to marry me into the Liang family. I heard that her brother will be back by the end of the year."

Yuan Wanru said confidently, "Don't worry, your marriage to Lanzhi will be finalized before the end of the year."

Wang Min made an appointment with Madam Wan to meet at Xiangyuan Temple.

Lu Yun knew that today was for her wedding, so she dressed extra delicately. Her moon-white dress made her look even more demure and pretty.

In order not to overshadow the guests, Yuan Wanru dressed rather plainly. She held Lu Yun's hand and looked at her carefully: "It's really beautiful."

Lu Yun blushed with embarrassment: "Sister-in-law, please stop teasing me."

When it comes to her daughter's marriage, Lu Yun, who has always been cheerful and generous, can't help but feel a little embarrassed.

We soon arrived at Xiangyuan Temple, which has always been a popular place with many men and women coming and going. Although today is not a special day, there are still many pilgrims.

When they arrived at the agreed place, Yuan Wanru saw at a glance a man as tall as a green pine or bamboo standing there, looking down the mountain.

When he turned around, Yuan Wanru lowered her head and said to Lu Yun, "Look up and smile."

Lu Yun didn't understand why, but she did it anyway.

Unexpectedly, the man not far ahead happened to look over. When their eyes met, Lu Yun's face suddenly flushed.

It seems that the two fell in love at first sight.
