Chapter 107: The Auction (3)

Shen Yuzhu's steps suddenly stopped there, could it be that the eldest brother's classmate came to the house as a guest?

The eldest brother was recently sent to Nanshan Academy by his mother, preparing to prepare for the township exam at the beginning of spring the next day.

She raised her eyes and peeked through the gap in the screen, where a young man in an indigo cloth robe was standing in front of Lu Ying to salute.

From Shen Yuzhu's angle, only the side face of the person could be seen.

The facial features are very thoughtful, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looks loyal and honest.

It can be seen that the family background is not very good, but standing in front of Lu Ying, the lady of the command, he maintains a posture that is neither arrogant nor humble, which makes people feel a little good.

This person looked like he was about seventeen or eighteen years old, but his eyes were firm and he was in retreat.

Shen Yuzhu's brows condensed slightly, this person was probably a guest in the Shen Mansion for the first time.

I didn't want to meet for the first time, so my mother asked if anyone had a wife in the family? Not suitable, right? Why do you think it's weird?

She thought about it for a while, could it be ......

Shen Yuzhu's cheeks couldn't help but heat slightly, her mother was talking about her family affairs everywhere these days, and now this person is afraid that the eldest brother didn't deliberately invite the Shen family as a guest, right?

She couldn't help but smile bitterly, in fact, she had lived a new life, and she had already failed to report too many expectations with her relatives.

I couldn't bear to watch my mother work for her, but she was kind to her.

If she really needs to marry in this life, she doesn't ask the other party to be rich, she just hopes that her heart is good and stable.

But now that she has not avenged her revenge, the cause of her mother's death has become a mystery, and it is really inappropriate to marry a woman in this situation.

Shen Yuzhu's mind moved, and she still walked around the screen.

The person standing in the room obviously didn't expect the eldest lady of the Shen family to appear, his face was slightly stunned, and he hurriedly lowered his head and looked away, not looking frivolous.

After Shen Yuzhu saluted Lu Ying on the right seat, he saluted Shen Zhiyi, who was standing on the same side.

Lu Ying hurriedly nodded at the young man standing in front of him with upright eyebrows and smiled, "Sister Yu, this is your eldest brother's classmate Xu Gongzi, who is a guest at our house today." ”

Shen Yuzhu turned around and saluted Xu Gongzi and said, "Xu Gongzi is fine." ”

Xu Maoshan looked at the dignified and gentle woman in front of him, and his heart suddenly moved slightly.

Before, they had some inappropriate rumors about this eldest lady of the Shen family in Nanshan Academy.

Now that the Shen family is in a whirlpool, everything about the Shen family is a good topic for classmates to gossip and amuse in private.

Later, after Shen Zhiyi came to Nanshan Academy, he gradually became friends with the eldest son of the Shen family, who had a calm temperament and studied hard.

He occasionally heard gossip about the Shen family, and he would definitely come forward to refute it.

Regarding the eldest lady of the Shen family, there is no good impression.

Although he hadn't seen it, he shook his head again and again when he heard the big guy describe the things about this Shen family girl.

Strong, domineering, not like a gentle and virtuous woman.

I didn't want to see it with my own eyes today, but I was surprised.

I thought she was a, but I didn't expect it to be a gentle and polite little girl.

It's just that this girl has a very peculiar aura on her body, not like a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl, showing a bit of old age.

"Miss is well!" Xu Maoshan slowly took a step back, and made a flat salute with his hands in fists.

Lu Ying, who was in the right position, looked at it in his eyes, and was a little more satisfied.

Seeing that there was a foreign man, Shen Yuzhu didn't really want to eat and drink here.

After she said a few words to Lu Ying, she excused herself and left Chengming Garden.

Xu Maoshan said goodbye and left after a while.

After Shen Zhiyi sent him away, he turned back to Chengming Garden.

Lu Ying asked Shen Zhiyi to sit down and talk, and Wang Ma came up with this year's new tea, and then took away the girls serving in the warm pavilion.

Madame has been helping the eldest lady to find a husband candidate, and almost checked all the school-age young people in Yunzhou City.

was higher than the Shen family, and sent someone over to ask, but they all politely refused.

There are people who can't go up or down, but before they speak, they first asked about Shen Yuzhu's dowry, but Lu Ying categorically refused.

There were some of the remaining ones with a slightly lower rank, and they were not satisfied with picking a few back and forth, and then their eyes fell on Nanshan Academy.

But all the children who can enter Nanshan Academy to study are not bad at home, and the money is not enough to rely on the new wife to make a fortune.

Besides, the children of Nanshan Academy have to take the road of scientific examination, even if the family background is not good, when they have fame in the future, their eldest girl can also be an official wife.

She asked Shen Zhiyi to help find one, and Shen Zhiyi really found one.

"Brother Yi'er, tell me about this Xu Gongzi's family background, where is the person?"

Lu Ying saw the maid in the warm pavilion retreat, and suddenly smiled in her eyes.

She is different from ordinary women in the house, and she can be regarded as a person who has seen the world before.

Seeing people is accurate, and you won't lose your eyes.

At first glance, I felt that this Xu Gongzi was not a wandering person, he seemed to be loyal and honest, and he knew etiquette very well.

I heard Shen Zhiyi say before that he was the son of the official eunuch family in Yuzhou.

After all, it was the first time I saw each other just now, so I didn't want to ask anything.

Shen Zhiyi looked at Lu Ying's eagerness, and she didn't sell it.

He also wants to settle down with his sister's family affairs, and the girl can't afford to delay.

"Back to my mother's words, Xu Maoshan's father is Lord Xu, the governor of Yuzhou, and he just came to Yuzhou to be an official."

"What, it's actually the son of Lord Zhizhou?" Lu Ying couldn't help but exclaim, and a touch of joy passed through her heart.
