Chapter 24 Agreed
When Li Zhan returned to Sheng Mansion, he received a warm welcome. All the men, women, and children of Sheng Mansion came out to greet him. Even Miss Wei, whom Li Zhan had only met a few times, missed her.
Li Zhan also lamented the value of Jinshi in this era. At this time, in addition to his title of Jinshi, he also had no money and his parents were dead. However, when he came to seek refuge with his master three years ago, there was only one steward who led him to visit the master.
, no one came forward to greet them, and now, looking at the men, women, and children in Sheng Mansion in front of the mansion, it feels like a world away.
Li Zhan turned his head away and put the thoughts in his mind behind. This was not the time to think about these things. He walked to Old Mrs. Sheng. Mother Fang let go of her hand supporting Old Mrs. Sheng and gave up her position to Li Zhan.
Zhan, Li Zhan supported Old Mrs. Sheng and said respectfully.
"Grandma, my grandson has finally lived up to your expectations. He is in the top three in high school and has won the title of Young Beauty. I am here to tell my grandma the good news!"
Mrs. Sheng's expression was full of kindness and joy. Her turbid eyes looked at Li Zhan beside her. She seemed to see the old man of the Sheng family in a trance. He also won the title of Hua Lang, but he later spoiled his concubine and killed his wife, which led to
A good Sheng Mansion almost fell into decline. If I hadn't tried my best to cultivate Sheng Hong, today's Sheng Mansion would have become a poor family.
Mrs. Sheng patted the back of Li Zhan's hand, nodded frequently, and said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, Zhan'er has finally made his mark. Now, I am worthy of your grandmother!"
Li Zhan nodded. One of the things he wanted to do when he came back this time was to worship his ancestors and tell them the news about his high school.
"Zhan'er is now a glorious ancestor. It's not worth your hard work!"
Only then did Sheng Hong interrupt. Looking at Li Zhan, who looked like a talented person, he became more and more delighted. He was glad that he had taken Li Zhan in and now he has such a good son-in-law. He will definitely be a good story in the future.
Li Zhan glanced at Sheng Hong, who was becoming more and more kind to him, and his heart moved. He understood the reason, nodded, and said respectfully to Sheng Hong.
"My nephew would also like to thank my uncle for his cultivation over the years. Without my uncle's support, my nephew would have froze to death on the roadside!"
Sheng Hong declined repeatedly, took a deep look at Li Zhan, and said with profound meaning.
"We are all a family, Zhan'er, what are you talking about?"
Li Zhan's heart trembled. He immediately understood Sheng Hong's thoughts. He nodded and looked at Sheng Hualan who was behind Wang Ruofu. He saw that she was also happy. She looked at him innocently. After a pause, he looked at Sheng Hualan.
Hong replied.
"What my uncle said is true!"
Sheng Hong's smile became even brighter, he nodded repeatedly and said to Mrs. Sheng.
"Mom, Zhan'er has worked hard all the way, let's go back home quickly!"
Mrs. Sheng nodded, and Li Zhan helped Mrs. Sheng walk in front and they went back to the house together, responding to the concerns of Mrs. Sheng and Sheng Hong from time to time.
There are not many people here in Shouan Hall. Only Mrs. Sheng, Sheng Hong, Wang Ruofu and Li Zhan are here. The others have been sent back to their courtyard by Sheng Hong.
After a while of greetings, Li Zhan looked at Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu who were still unwilling to leave. He sighed and understood what they were thinking. He thought that he himself was not opposed to the marriage and had been prepared before returning.
, couldn't help but stood up, bowed to Mrs. Sheng in the hall, took out a purse from his sleeve, handed it to Mrs. Sheng, and said in a deep voice.
"Grandma, this is my grandson's birth date. Please ask grandma to make the decision today and ask me to marry Sister Hualan!"
After saying that, Li Zhan knelt down directly in front of Mrs. Sheng and kowtowed respectfully.
Old Mrs. Sheng took the purse but did not open it. She looked at Li Zhan with a look of relief. She quickly stood up and helped Li Zhan up, scolding.
"You kid, why do you need to perform such a big ceremony? You have no elders in your family now. Your marriage is what I, an old woman, should worry about!"
After Mrs. Sheng helped Li Zhan up, she glanced at the happy Sheng Hong couple, felt a little sorry for Li Zhan, and asked again.
"Zhan'er, let me ask you one last time, do you really want to ask to marry Hua Lan? Although I wanted you to get married before, but if you don't want to, I will never force you!"
"Mother!"
"Mother!"
Thinking of the two exclamations, Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu couldn't sit still. They stood up and looked at Old Mrs. Sheng in disbelief. They didn't understand why she turned her elbows outward at this moment.
Above, there is an unexpected problem. Li Zhan is a new star in the science and a popular son-in-law. Why did Li Zhan take the initiative to propose to marry Hua Lan, but Mrs. Sheng pushed her away instead.
Li Zhan was stunned for a moment. He looked at the solemn and sincere face of Mrs. Sheng, and felt warm in his heart. Then he glanced at the nervous Sheng Hong couple, a bright smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and said firmly.
"My grandma considers me, so I am naturally happy, but my grandson has already made up his mind. I have known Hua Lan since I was a child, and our relationship is deeper than others. Moreover, sister Hua Lan is dignified, gentle in temperament, and full of manners.
She is a good match for my grandson, and I ask my grandmother to make the decision to marry Sister Hualan for me!"
Old Mrs. Sheng looked at Li Zhan, who had a serious look on his face, and then felt relieved. With Li Zhan's help, she sat back in the hall, turned to look at the ecstatic Sheng Hong couple, and then spoke.
"You also heard what Zhan'er said, what do you think?"
Wang Ruofu had already agreed to the marriage. Seeing that Mrs. Sheng was still asking, he quickly took a few steps forward, nodded frequently, and said urgently.
"Mother, of course we agree to this marriage!"
Mrs. Sheng glared hard at her anxious and unstable daughter-in-law Wang Ruofu, and then turned her attention to Sheng Hong, who had calmed down at this time.
Sheng Hong stopped his wife's actions with his eyes, bowed and saluted, pretended to think for a moment, and then replied to Mrs. Sheng.
"This matter is entirely up to the mother, and the son has no objections!"
Sheng Hong's answer was more or less decent. Mrs. Sheng nodded, handed the purse that Li Zhan handed over to Sheng Hong, and said.
"In that case, please keep Zhan'er's birth date and birth date. Later, you can also give Hua Lan's birth date and birth date to Zhan'er!"
Sheng Hong nodded in agreement and took the purse. The heart that had been hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground. Li Zhan finally became a family with their Sheng family.
Mrs. Sheng saw that the marriage had been settled. Unless Li Zhan regretted the marriage at the risk of being ungrateful, otherwise this matter was definitely a dead end and there would be no room for regret. Then she faced Li Zhan, who had a tired look on his face.
said.
"Zhan'er, you are tired from your travels. Go back to your house and rest first. Your uncle and I still have something to discuss!"
