Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild - Chapter 305
Chapter 305: He Qin’s Engagement
One month later, Huang Yang Town.
As Chu Sihan had something on, he temporarily stayed in Lin Jiang Mansion. Shi Yi and Yun Ting also stayed in Lin Jiang Mansion.
Since Yun Ting was not coming, Fu Sisi naturally had to stay. Hence, Lu Sheng was the only one who returned to Huang Yang Town.
Although she had only left for about two to three months, she felt like she had left for a long time.
She went to the restaurant and realized that the door was closed.
When she returned to the Lu Mansion, she realized that there was no one there.
She had just walked out and closed the door when she saw an elderly woman walk out from next door.
Seeing Lu Sheng standing outside the door, the woman thought that she was a guest of the Lu Mansion. She hurriedly asked, “Miss, are you here to find the people from this family?”
Lu Sheng tilted her head and looked at the old lady. Then, she smiled and nodded.
The woman smiled and said, “This family has returned to the village a few days ago. They said that Brother He Qin was getting engaged.”
He Qin was getting engaged?
“Thank you for your reminder, Grandma. I’ll go back now.”
After speaking, she steered the carriage and left the Lu Mansion.
When she returned to Liu Yue Village, she realized that the Lu family’s door was wide open. Lu Ran, Lu Jiang and Lu Xin were having their meal in the main hall.
Hearing the sound of wheels turning, Lu Jiang’s and Lu Xin’s eyes lit up.
The duo was about to put down their bowls and chopsticks when Lu Ran’s cold gaze suddenly swept over, scaring the duo till their bodies stiffened.
Seeing that they lowered their heads to eat again, Lu Ran retracted his gaze.
He turned his head to look outside the room and saw Lu Sheng walking in.
“Second Sister!”
Lu Xin called out sweetly, her eyes full of longing.
“You’re back. Have you eaten?”
Lu Ran put down his chopsticks and asked her.
“Yes.”
Lu Sheng sat down next to Lu Xin and smiled. “I went to the restaurant and realized that the door was closed. I went to our house in town, but a grandma from next door said that Uncle was getting engaged, so you’re all back.”
“Indeed.” Lu Ran nodded.
“Which family’s daughter is he getting engaged to?”
Lu Ran said, “A girl from the Duan family from the same village. She’s six years younger than Uncle.”
Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Could it be the second Zhang family?”
If it was the second Zhang family, He Qin would be too unlucky.
Lu Ran shook his head. “No, the Duan family is quite good. It’s just that their lives are a bit poor.”
“That’s nothing.”
Lu Sheng smiled and said, “We don’t lack that bit of money now. If she’s from a good family, Uncle should help her.”
Lu Ran nodded in agreement. “That’s what I told Grandma too.”
“Have they decided on a date?” Lu Sheng asked again.
He Qin was not young anymore. He was at least twenty-six or twenty-seven years old. A person of his age in the same village would already have two to three children.
Lu Ran nodded. “Yes, next March.”
Lu Sheng smiled.
She was suddenly very curious about the Zhang family’s reaction. Thankfully, Grandma had given the money to her family. Otherwise, she would not have been able to see the Zhang family’s true colors.
“What happened to the carriage?”
Lu Ran swallowed his last bite and asked Lu Sheng.
“Oh, that’s the carriage from the Prime Minister’s Mansion. Matriarch Fu sent some New Year goods to our family. Lord wants me to ride this carriage back. When he returns to Huang Yang Town, I’ll get someone to send the carriage back to the capital.”
“Prime Minister’s Mansion? Matriarch Fu?”
Lu Ran was surprised. “You’ve been to the capital? You even went to the Prime Minister’s Mansion?”
“Yes.”
Lu Sheng nodded. “The Prime Minister is Lord Chu’s uncle. Matriarch Fu is Lord Chu’s maternal grandmother and the current Prime Minister’s mother.”
“I see!”
Other than being surprised that Lu Sheng went to the Prime Minister’s Mansion, Lu Ran did not have much of a reaction.
After all, his sister’s master was the Third Prince.
