Zhou Wenliang knew that she was definitely interested in her, so he had already asked someone to investigate her carefully.
The Lu family's family tradition is indeed good. Unlike the Pei family who use their reputation as a recluse to boost their social status, they are really indifferent and do not care about fame and fortune.
Lu Jingxing's father and uncle are both well-educated people, but they have not participated in the imperial examination, but this does not restrict the imperial examination for future generations.
Before Lu Jingxing, a few years ago, there was an uncle who won the first prize in the examination, and Lu Jingxing was the first of his generation.
He has an older sister and a younger sister. The elder sister is Lu Qingyun and the younger sister is Lu Qiuyue. It is this sister that Lu Jingxing mentioned. She has just grown hair and is said to be a talented woman.
As for my elder sister, Lu Qingyun, she is 19 years old this year. She grew up with her grandparents. Because she was born on the Ghost Festival, she has never discussed marriage.
Shen Zhoujin raised his eyebrows.
If the Ghost Festival is not the Ghost Festival, people say it is unlucky, but she doesn't care.
Half of July is the Harvest Festival, what's wrong with that?
In terms of destiny, there are really no bad days, but there are indeed different horoscopes, so as long as the horoscopes match.
Shen Zhoujin took out the horoscopes of both sisters and calculated them. The elder sister's horoscope was far more consistent than the younger sister's, but the younger sister's was also okay.
And from a political point of view, it is also very suitable for senior brother to marry a girl who has no power in the family except for the name of her ancestors. However, the girl still has to be chosen.
Shen Zhoujin didn't hesitate, so he quietly went over to take a look at it that night.
If they were a well-behaved family, this would definitely be inappropriate, but if they were not discovered, they would not have gone.
The Lu family's family is located in Beizhili, not too far away. Shen Zhoujin walked over and easily found the yard of the two sisters.
She first went to see her younger sister, who had just grown hair. To her, she was still a child, not lively, every move was bookish, and she looked quite pleasing to the eye, like a somewhat fleshy Sister Lin.
But when she went to see her sister again, she felt that her sister was better.
She's not absolutely beautiful, but she looks particularly good on her eyes.
She has an oval face and beautiful features. When she lowers her eyes, she is very gentle and quiet. When she raises her eyes, her eyes are clear. They are obviously round and big almond eyes, but the ends of the eyes are slightly raised, hiding a hint of coquettishness. Her smile is really sweet. She Looking at it makes me want to kiss him twice.
Shen Zhoujin admired it quietly for a while, but couldn't help it. Still very ungentlemanly, he secretly took a short picture, then went back and took a short picture of his sister, and took it back to show to his senior brother.
It would be a lifelong matter for her senior brother to get married, and since she would not take concubines, she would never allow her senior brother to marry blindly.
After all, they are Jianghu people and don't care much about this aspect. The two brothers and sisters closed the door and took a peek. The senior brother pointed at his sister without hesitation: "It's just her. Looking at her eyes, she feels like she can talk to a princess." As I said, I should get along with you."
Shen Zhoujin nodded.
Even though she said that, it was a lifelong event for her senior brother, so she still secretly observed it for two more days.
Perhaps because she grew up with an old man, Lu Qingyun's temperament is indeed calm and gentle. She doesn't seem to be worried or anxious about "not being able to get married" and has a very calm attitude.
Shen Zhoujin looked left and right, not making up his mind yet, but Shen Zhoumin had already revealed the words to Lu Jingxing.
Lu Jingxing was a little shocked.
Because they chose Shen Zhoumian not only because of his character, but also for the continuation of the family's glory... Because Shen Zhoujin took the lead against the Pei family, they married the girl to him to express their support for her. It can be regarded as a kind of standing in line.
In this way, some people may ridicule them for following the trend, or add insult to injury to Mr. Pei, and they are ready to endure this.
But if it were Lu Qingyun, the nature would be different.
Girls born on the Hungry Ghost Festival have a bad reputation and are unlucky. If they marry Shen Zhoumian, people will not laugh at them. They will only laugh at Shen Zhoujin, mocking her for fighting against the Pei family at first, and then turning around and laughing at her again. The Lu family is so flattering that they are willing to marry such a girl...
Although Lu Jingxing felt that this would give his sister hope for life, he still couldn't help but ask: "Why is this?"
Shen Zhoumian said: "Since Jingxing asked, I can't hide it. We asked about it in advance. Jin'er said that in numerology, there is nothing to avoid about the birthday of the Ghost Festival. Don't worry about folk rumors. And my age I have grown up, and our family situation is a little different, so I want to marry an older, calmer girl."
He paused for a moment: "As for reputation, I'll be honest. I wanted to get married at first. I really wanted to make Jin'er's reputation better, but from Jin'er's point of view, me marrying the right girl is more important than her reputation. many."
Lu Jingxing couldn't help but be moved.
According to rumors, Shen Zhoujin's behavior is too strict, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to get along with him.
But he didn't expect that Shen Zhoumian and Shen Zhoujin in his mouth were full of gentleness, more gentle than those from famous families.
They have a lot of scheming intentions, but they marry girls seriously and have good families, and they don't care at all about these rumors.
Lu Jingxing didn't say much. He stood up and saluted: "Brother Shen thanks you for your respect. Jingxing understands."
The words have been revealed like this, but we have to invite the official media and wait until Shen Jiming returns to the capital.
Shen Zhoujin didn't expect her senior brother to move so quickly, she hadn't taken a good guess yet!
So she entered the palace angrily and complained to the emperor for a long time. As a result, Emperor Wu Xuan listened while approving the memorial, and finally said: "It's time for the draft. I will choose two women from such aristocratic families to enter the palace."
Finally he said: "Do you want me to help them get married?"
What can Shen Zhoujin say?
She could only say: "No, no, no, no need for marriage. I just want to remind you that since the Lu family has shown good intentions, grandpa can use Lu Jingxing."
"Well," Emperor Wu Xuan said, "then let him go on errands with Jue'er."
Fine.
Shen Zhoujin left.
After going back, she couldn't help but complain for a long time.
Huo Lingjue said with a smile: "You and I agreed to get married, and senior brother didn't say a word. Senior brother believes in you, but you don't believe in senior brother?"
Shen Zhoujin said without hesitation: "Of course I don't believe it! This is my first time for senior brother to get married, what does he know?"
Huo Lingjue narrowed his eyes and glanced at her.
Shen Zhoujin confidently said that she didn't make a mistake, that's how she felt.
Then Huo Lingjue said slowly: "Senior brother, he doesn't believe in himself, he believes in you. You have been watching for two days and haven't found any faults, so he will naturally feel relieved... After all, Jin'er is so smart. For 90% of people, you can tell the good from the bad at a glance."
Shen Zhoujin: "..."
She had to admit that she was coaxed by him and felt that what he said was right.
Then she calmed down and said to her master: "When we go back in August, why don't we invite the official media? I calculated their horoscopes and found that the ninth day of October this year, the ninth day of March next year, and the tenth day of June are all suitable."
Unexpectedly, Shen Jiming said: "Then I will write back and ask the princess to help find an official matchmaker. Mian'er and the girl are not young anymore. If we invite an official matchmaker now, they can get married on the ninth day of October."
Yo!?
Shen Zhoujin nodded fiercely: "Okay, okay."
So Shen Jiming went back to his room to write a letter after dinner.
Shen Zhou winked at Huo Lingjue with beaming eyebrows.
Huo Lingjue looked at her with a half-smile.
Shen Zhoujin suddenly remembered what she had just said, so she silently put away her beaming expression. She happened to be in a very good mood today, so she quickly took two bites of food, waiting for him to ask, and then she could coax him.
In the end, he just didn't ask.
Mr. Shen took the time to eat two bites, and he was almost full without asking.
Then she felt like she was waiting for the second shoe but couldn't wait...that was so uncomfortable.
So she took the initiative and said, "Xiao Jue, what did you want to say to me just now?"
