Chapter 1362: Extra Seven: A Match Made in Heaven_4
Originally, the Shen family had proposed Lu Zhu to the Youngest of the Hu Family because they favored his temperament, and with Lu Zhu being skilled at putting on an act, she appeared every bit the lady of a reputable family in front of others, which satisfied the Hu family. Later, when Lu Zhu committed those misdeeds and could no longer marry into the Hu Family, they did not make a fuss with the Shen family but only hoped that the Shen family could act as a matchmaker and find a gentle and virtuous wife for the Youngest of the Hu Family.
In Liu Tinglan’s eyes, the Hu family was quite admirable, at least having open-minded in-laws, devoid of messy relatives, and with the family being independent, there were no unstable elements. Plus, with the Youngest of the Hu Family being of good character, marrying into the Hu family would mean not worrying about food and clothing, as long as one respectfully took care of the in-laws.
"Hearing what you’ve said, the Hu family does seem to be an extraordinary match..." Mo Yan said thoughtfully, her interest now turning into genuine affection. She decided to investigate further, and if it turned out to be true, she would tell Wu’s.
The Wu family’s situation was slightly inferior to that of the Hu family, but the Hu family valued the character of their daughter-in-law more than material conditions, which made Dani quite suitable.
Liu Tinglan asked curiously, "Who exactly do you have in mind for the Youngest of the Hu Family? Do I know her?"
Mo Yan glanced at her friend and felt that there was nothing wrong with telling the truth, so she disclosed, "You know her, it’s Big Sister Dani, she hasn’t been betrothed yet."
Liu Tinglan’s eyes lit up and she clapped her hands in laughter, "Big Sister Dani is indeed a good person, gentle and well-matched with the Youngest of the Hu Family. I think this marriage would be very suitable!" freёnovelkiss.com
Mo Yan gave her a look, "It’s not up to you to decide this matter. We may think it’s a good match, but that doesn’t necessarily mean they will agree. Also, Big Sister Dani is two years older than the Youngest of the Hu Family that you mentioned. Are you sure the Hu family won’t mind?"
Liu Tinglan grew a little concerned upon hearing this, "They shouldn’t mind, it’s only two years... why should it be only acceptable for the man to be older than the woman and not the other way around?"
"Tsk tsk, not bad, you’re quite aware. Truly a good sister of mine." Mo Yan hooked her friend’s shoulder, smiling and complimenting herself as well.
Liu Tinglan, speechless, shook off her hand and said, "What are you planning to do next? Should the Hu family meet with Aunt Wu first to get to know each other?"
Mo Yan shook her head, "There’s no hurry for this matter, I’ll discuss it after I gather more information."
"Alright, it’s up to you, I’ll tell my mother-in-law once I’m sure there are no problems," Liu Tinglan said, understanding her friend’s concerns and not taking offense at all.
She had heard everything about the Hu family from her mother-in-law, but she wasn’t clear on the specifics, so naturally, she wanted to thoroughly investigate beforehand. If the Youngest of the Hu Family or the Hu family members were not as reliable as she claimed, wouldn’t that be pushing her friend’s sister into a pit of fire? She couldn’t commit such a sin!
Liu Tinglan stayed for lunch at the General Mansion, where the pair of old friends chatted for a long time after not having seen each other for months. It wasn’t until dusk approached, when Xiao Ruiyuan was about to finish work, that Liu Tinglan declined Mo Yan’s invitation to stay for dinner and left with her dragon-phoenix twins.
While her husband had not yet returned, Mo Yan hastily gathered a few birds, sending them to gather all information about the Hu family, with a special focus on the Youngest of the Hu Family to see if he was as reliable as Liu Tinglan had claimed.
These birds, having forsaken returning to the wild, had come to the General Mansion with Mo Yan and even nested in the large trees in the yard; calling them out whenever she needed them was as simple as calling from the yard. The fact that she used birds to send messages was no longer a secret to Xiao Ruiyuan and his Hidden Guard. What were a few birds to someone who could tame fierce beasts?
After finishing these tasks, Xiao Ruiyuan returned to the General Mansion, his footsteps tracing the last glimmer of the sunset’s afterglow.
The couple washed their hands and sat down at the dining table, chatting idly while eating dinner, mostly with Mo Yan speaking and Xiao Ruiyuan listening, interjecting with advice from time to time — the meal was quite enjoyable for just the two of them.
After dining, the couple went for a walk in the yard to digest their meal. It was already April, and the weather was neither cold nor hot but very comfortable. The yard was full of various colorful flowers and the trees had dressed in fresh green, making for a particularly fresh and delightful sight.
If tired of walking, they would brew a pot of flower tea, sipping it while taking in the floral fragrance and appreciating the full bloom of spring in the garden — it indeed felt like a moment of serene bliss in time.
Following a bath, they returned to their room where they inevitably played the most primal of symphonies together. After relishing the post-joy reverie, Xiao Ruiyuan placed his hand over Mo Yan’s stomach, his eyes reflecting a faint disappointment and dejection.
After marriage, he had begun to pay attention to certain feminine matters. He knew that when a woman’s monthly cycle was delayed, unless it was due to poor health, it could be indicative of pregnancy.
