I'm reborn, only a fool would spoil you

Chapter 138 Sister's Blind Date

The next day, Tao Ying, her daughter-in-law and two daughters arrived at the foot of the Western Hills in the suburbs of Beijing in a luxurious carriage.

The carriage slowed down, but before it came to a complete stop, a clear voice came from the front: "Xu Weichuan, the eldest son of the Xu family, is here to respectfully welcome the wife of Marquis Jingyang."

Hearing this, Tao Ying drew aside the curtain and saw a tall and handsome young man with delicate features standing in front of the carriage, bowing to them respectfully.

Tao Ying fell in love with this polite and handsome man at first sight.

After Cui Jiaojiao saw it, she immediately lowered her voice and laughed, "It turned out to be him!"

"Mom, I still remember him. Half a month ago, he won the second place in the equestrian competition on Guihua Mountain, second only to Chen Peiting from the Prime Minister's family. The emperor even gave him a prize in person!"

Hearing this, Tao Ying smiled even more.

After hearing what Cui Jiaojiao said, Fu Yuzheng also remembered that among the princes and sons of the royal family participating in the equestrian competition, few were good looking, but Xu Weichuan, the eldest son of the Minister of War, was quite eye-catching.

Agile!

He is worthy of being the eldest son of the Minister of Military Affairs!

As a result, Tao Ying, Fu Yuzheng and Cui Jiaojiao all felt a liking for Xu Weichuan.

After the mother and daughter jumped off the carriage, Xu Weichuan stepped forward and said respectfully, "My mother is in the pavilion halfway up the mountain. She sent me down to greet my aunt and sisters."

Tao Ying nodded while looking at Xu Weichuan carefully. He looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, with outstanding height and appearance. The more she looked at him, the more satisfied she became.

As they walked up the stone steps, Tao Ying asked, "Mr. Xu, where are you now?"

Xu Weichuan said shyly: "I am not talented. I was in the Ministry of War last year. This year, I just took a rotation in the Ministry of Revenue. I am currently the head of the Ministry of Revenue."

The head of the Ministry of Revenue is a middle-level official of the Ministry of Revenue, and is of the seventh rank.

At such a young age, he has already worked in two departments. It is obvious that he has a bright future. However, this future is at least 20-30 years away.

This is how the official career works. If a young man wants to move up, he has to start from low-level positions and accumulate experience step by step.

Today, most of the high-ranking officials of the first, second, third and fourth ranks in the court are between 40 and 60 years old.

Like Gao Ni, it is a miracle that he can rise to the top and hold power at the age of twenty-five or twenty-six! It is rare to see such a thing in a century!

Most of them are like Xu Weichuan, who needs to endure year after year.

Whether it is Xu Weichuan or Chen Peiting, the eldest son of the Prime Minister's family, if they can be promoted to third or fourth rank officials in their 40s and hold some real power, they will be considered to have done quite well!

If one can become a first or second rank official, it means that one has "extraordinary strength" and "favored by fate"!

For example, Xu Weichuan's father, the current second-rank Minister of War, Lord Xu, is just 43 years old and a newcomer to the court. He is a living example of a young man rising step by step.

After a brief greeting, Tao Ying no longer kept Xu Weichuan and went to climb the stone steps while chatting with Fu Yuzheng and Cui Jiaojiao.

This was deliberately done to create an opportunity for Xu Weichuan and Fu Yushu to be alone.

Xu Weichuan understood, and walked a few steps behind to Fu Yushu's side. He tilted his head slightly to look at her...

Today, Fu Yushuo is wearing a fresh pink long dress. As the late autumn breeze blows slowly, she dances like a pink butterfly with charming temperament.

What is even more eye-catching is her fair and tender face. As long as the man is not blind, he will not be able to help but look at it again and again.

She is so beautiful!

Although she is slightly inferior to her sister Fu Yuzheng, Fu Yusu is definitely a stunning beauty.

When Master Xu looked at her, Fu Yushu felt uncomfortable and tilted her head slightly to look at the woods beside the stone steps. Coincidentally, a little white rabbit was jumping around in the woods.

"Miss Fu, do you like rabbits? I'll catch a few cute little ones for you to keep as playthings one day." Xu Weichuan smiled shyly.

Fu Yushu didn't look away after hearing this, but politely replied: "Thank you, Mr. Xu, but it's not necessary. I have a little white rabbit at home, it's very clingy and cute."

"It is enough."

When talking about the clingy "little dot", Fu Yushu's face smiled more often.

Xu Weichuan was completely mesmerized by her. Her smile was indescribably gentle and charming, which made his heart beat fast and he couldn't bear to look away.

Later, the two chatted for a while and arrived at the pavilion halfway up the mountain.

At this time, Mrs. Xu, the Minister of War, who was waiting in the pavilion, saw Tao Ying and her group coming up from afar, and hurriedly walked out of the pavilion enthusiastically, holding Tao Ying's hand and jokingly saying:

"Oh, the girls of the Fu family are all beautiful. When I look at them, they all look like fairies from heaven!"

Joking aside, Mrs. Xu could still tell which one was Cui Jiaojiao and which one was Fu Yuzheng. She quickly glanced at the two of them and her eyes were directly fixed on Fu Yusu.

Well, from the appearance, figure to demeanor, Mrs. Xu was extremely satisfied.

After chatting with Fu Yushuo for a while, Mrs. Xu liked the girl's conversation more and more, and felt that she was definitely qualified to be the head wife of their Xu family.

"I am a person who likes to enjoy a leisurely life. As soon as my daughter-in-law comes home, I will throw all the household chores to her."

What Mrs. Xu said was a promise that once Fu Yushu married into the family, she would be able to be the master of the household and not be bullied.

Tao Ying listened and smiled, "Mrs. Xu is indeed someone who knows how to enjoy life."

In this way, both mothers were satisfied and soon discussed engagement.

Of course, even if both mothers are interested, the marriage cannot be arranged immediately. It will take some time to observe.

At least Tao Ying felt that she should let the two younger generations interact with each other more and spend some time together to see whether her daughter liked Mr. Xu.

Jingyang Marquis Mansion.

At dusk eight days later, when Fu Yuzheng, Fu Yusu and Cui Jiaojiao were admiring hibiscus in the back garden, suddenly a concierge came over.

"Miss, this is a letter from the residence of the Minister of War."

At the residence of the Minister of War?

Isn’t it the “love letter” sent by “future fiancé” Xu Weichuan?

As soon as the concierge left, Cui Jiaojiao immediately teased Fu Yushu, "Open it quickly and see if there are any cheesy sentences in it?"

Cui Jiaojiao has never received a love letter in her life, and she is very envious.

Fu Yuzheng had never received a love letter before, and both of them stared eagerly at this "first love letter" they had ever received in their lives.

Fu Yushu: ...

I was speechless because of my sister-in-law and younger sister.

She thought to herself that since she was not familiar with Xu Weichuan at all, he would not write anything abrupt. So she tore open the envelope in front of her sister and sister-in-law and took out the letter inside.

Expand it and take a look.

Sure enough, there were only one or two short lines in the letter, saying that tomorrow was a day off and he wanted to ask her to go out for a walk.

unexpectedly……

There is a highlight at the signature - "Missing you, Chuan"!

"I miss you, Chuan?" Cui Jiaojiao said softly, and then her face lit up with joy.

It really is a love letter, and the words used are so... corny!

Cui Jiaojiao, who had never received a love letter before, looked at it, read it several times, and her ears turned red without her realizing it!

When Fu Yuzheng heard that sentence, she didn't feel anything at all.

It's really her brother Ni's mouth... He keeps telling dirty jokes every day. The words "I miss you Chuan" are nothing compared to what Gao Ni says... It's totally not good enough!

Fu Yushu, who was always dignified, bit her lip slightly and felt a little annoyed when she suddenly saw the signature "Missing you Chuan".

She and Master Xu had only met once last time under the matchmaking of their elders, and they had never contacted each other privately since then. Now, to rashly use such words... was too reckless!

What a scoundrel!

So, Fu Yushu’s face suddenly turned red with anger!

She quickly folded the letter and stuffed it into the envelope. Then Mu Furong no longer had the heart to appreciate it and turned around to go back to her own courtyard.

At this moment, Second Madam Qiao and Fu Jingxuan, who had just returned from work, came from not far away. When they saw Fu Yusu, they suddenly raised their normal voices deliberately.

Fu Jingxuan said: "...It's useless to reincarnate again if you have a bad fate!"

The second wife, Mrs. Qiao, echoed, "That's right. Look at your fourth sister. She wasn't as reborn as your eldest cousin, so what? She married a much better woman than your eldest cousin! She's the eldest son of the Prime Minister's family!"

The title of Prime Minister makes him far superior to the Minister of War!

What's more, in terms of personal talent alone, Chen Peiting is better than Xu Weichuan!

It’s true, so what if Fu Yuxuan’s family background is lower than Fu Yusu’s, she married better than Fu Yusu!

Really brings honor to the second wife!

Fu Yuzheng: ...

Hearing such remarks, she couldn't help but frown slightly.

But this was the truth, and the Second Wife and the others were not making it up, so it was difficult to refute it for the moment.

At this time, the second wife Qiao took a few quick steps, came closer, and said to Fu Yuzheng with a smile:

"Miss Three, you are so lucky to be reborn and get married! With just a high nickel, you are better than all the other girls. You are so majestic when you walk around! You are truly blessed and no one else can envy you!"

After that, the second wife Qiao said to Fu Yushu: "The eldest daughter's fate is much worse. They are born of the same parents, so why did she marry higher and you marry lower? Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, it's really unbelievable."

Fu Yushu was indeed well-mannered. She didn't change her expression even after hearing such sarcastic remarks.

He just smiled faintly and didn't say anything.

At this time, Fu Yuzheng took over the conversation and said:

"Second Aunt, you are wrong. Gao Ni's success did not come out of thin air. He worked hard for more than ten years when he was young, and he worked hard step by step to get to where he is now."

"Mr. Xu from the family of the Minister of War is still young now. Who knows, in ten years, he will be as famous as Gao Ni?"

Of course, I only said this when refuting, to save my sister's face.

Everyone knows that becoming as successful as Gao Ni at the age of 25 is something that can only be encountered by chance.

In other words, Xu Weichuan has absolutely no chance.

Not only Xu Weichuan has no chance, but Chen Peiting also has no chance.

Not only do the two of them have no chance, it will be difficult to find anyone else with a chance in the entire Great Zhou Kingdom.

After hearing this, Second Madam Qiao was too lazy to argue. She knew that no matter how cleverly Fu Yuzheng spoke, it would be useless! People in the world would only hold the same opinion as her.

——Mocking Fu Yushu for marrying a worse wife than her sister!

Moreover, you will never be able to escape this ugly statement in your life!
