After breakfast, Jiang Sheng went to the general's mansion with Ye Rong, Tan Shu, Lu Xuan, and Lu Wenchuan.

On the way, Lu Wenchuan took advantage of others not paying attention and secretly said something to Jiang Sheng. Jiang Sheng was surprised at first, and then almost twisted Lu Wenchuan's ears off.

Lu Wenchuan was begging for mercy while saying something, and Jiang Sheng let him go. It seemed that he scolded Lu Wenchuan a few words, and this time he took out something from his sleeve and threw it to him.

Ye Rong watched from a distance and said to Tan Shu

"It's been a while since Wen Chuan made Sheng'er angry."

"This brat, only Sheng'er can cure him now."

Lu Xuan narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Wenchuan, probably guessing that Lu Wenchuan went to ask for some medicine. He felt that Sheng'er was too gentle.

Several people handed in their visiting cards in advance, so the people from the general's mansion were waiting at the door to greet them early.

When Lu Wenchuan saw He Ruozhu, he went over and asked in a low voice:

"Are you feeling better now? Are you still feeling uncomfortable? Have you applied the medicine I asked my sister-in-law for?"

He Ruozhu blushed and shook her head

"What are you doing, there are so many people here."

If the He family didn't know what the people from the General's Mansion were doing before, they now have a rough idea.

He Zhao was the only one in the He family who knew something about the close relationship between He Ruozhu and Lu Wenchuan. After all, she paid quite a lot of attention to the Lu family because of Jiang Sheng.

He Zheng, the old lady and Nie Wushuang who was pregnant were not very clear about the situation.

So, at this moment, they all looked very surprised.

He Zhao stood up and said with a smile

"I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person. Please come in."

He Zheng then raised his hand

"Please come in...Please come in..."

After everyone was seated, Ye Rong smiled and told them the purpose of his visit.

"I've been in Bianjiang City for a long time, and I know that people here are straightforward, so I'll just say what I want to say today.

Today, we came here as a family to propose marriage for my disappointing grandson."

Nie Wushuang glanced at his blushing little daughter beside him, and he finally understood everything. It turned out that this girl and the second son of the Lu family had secretly decided to get married.

Tan Shu said on the side

"We have had quite a bit of contact with Miss Ruozhu these days. She is impeccable in terms of character, conduct, and appearance. We all like her very much.

The most important thing is that the two children like each other. We were a little rude. We should have asked a matchmaker to come to their house, but we have to return to Beijing in a few days, so we came to their house today."

The old lady of the He family said with a smile

"This is a match made in heaven."

He Zheng and He Zhao looked at each other. They would naturally not object to such a marriage. Just as He Ruozhu thought, the He family could certainly point to the sky in Bianjiang City, but their foundation was still shallow in the distant capital.

The General's Mansion, like the He family, also has military generals. When the Lu family is established in the capital in the future, they will not be as isolated from the news as they are now.

If the Lu family had not suffered a disaster, such a marriage would never have happened to them in their entire lives.

However, He Zheng never expected that the Lu family was willing to let his son marry their daughter.

He Zheng coughed a few times

"As long as the two children are willing, we as elders naturally have no objection."

Nie Wushuang glanced at his daughter and smiled.

"Ruozhu, you have been away from home these days, have you gone to look for the second young master of the Lu family?"

He Ruozhu blushed and nodded.

Nie Wushuang pinched her nose

"You are worthy of being my daughter. Well done. That's the way it should be. If you meet someone you like, you should take the initiative to win him or her over."

He Zheng coughed heavily several times

"Madam, outsiders are still here, don't talk nonsense."

Nie Wushuang glared at him.

Ye Rong and Qin Shu looked at each other and smiled.

"No wonder the He family was able to raise a girl as good-tempered as Ruozhu. It turns out it's because of the straightforward personality of the wife."

"I've often heard from Sheng'er that the general's wife has a generous personality. Today, when I see her, it's true."

After some casual chatting, the two families had a general understanding of each other.

The Lu family was sincere in their attitude, and the He family was really interested in marrying their daughter off. Lu Wenchuan and He Ruozhu were a perfect match in terms of talent and appearance, so the marriage discussions went very smoothly.

Seeing that the conversation was almost over, Lu Xuan spoke

"Regarding marriage, I have something to discuss with my in-laws."

He Zhao looked at him

"please say."

"We will have to return to the capital soon because of the imperial decree. If we settle down in the capital and then get our two children married, the round trip will take at least a year or so.

It's been too long, it's fine for us, but I'm afraid the two children will suffer from homesickness for a while."

There was a burst of laughter in the room, and Lu Wenchuan blushed for a rare moment.

"Then what do you mean?"

Lu Xuan said softly

“I want to take advantage of these few days to arrange a wedding for them first. After returning to Beijing, our General’s Mansion will hold another grand wedding for them.

As for the betrothal gifts, please rest assured that the marriages of the younger generation of the Lu family have fixed standards, and Miss He will never be treated unfairly, so as to avoid more troubles at night."

Nie Wushuang had no doubt that the Lu family would treat Ruozhu unfairly in this regard. Just by looking at the fact that they respected the child's wishes and were willing to let the second young master Lu marry their daughter, it was clear that the Lu family was a kind family.

Getting married in just a few days is indeed too rushed.

Although these three daughters are not her and A Zheng's biological children, she watched them grow up and she always treated them as her own daughters.

The eldest daughter and the second daughter both had grand weddings, but the third daughter's turn was married in such a hurry. Nie Wushuang felt that he owed this youngest daughter a lot.

He Zheng has always been too serious and not close enough to his daughters, so he didn't think there was anything wrong. Besides, this is indeed a good method. As Lu Xuan said, a year or two is indeed too long, and who knows what will happen.

Old Madam He thought so too. They had been separated for so long and no one knew what would happen. Given the status of the He family, marriage to the General's Mansion was considered a high-class marriage, so she had to seize the opportunity.

Having good in-laws will make life easier for the three little ones in the family in the future.

Finally, after discussion between the two families, Lu Wenchuan and He Ruozhu's marriage was held five days later. After returning to the parents' home, they set off.

After the He family sent the Lu family away, they began to prepare intensively. Fortunately, all the relatives of the Lu family were in Bianjiang City, except He Ruojun who married out, so the wedding invitations were sent out overnight.

The Lu family was not idle after returning. They had been living in the small outer city. The house there was fine for living, but it was a bit shabby for getting married.

Jiang Sheng suggested setting up the wedding room in her house in the inner city. It happened that there were still a lot of belongings in her system backpack that she brought with her when she left Beijing. She could pick some of them out and use them as Wen Chuan's betrothal gift.
