Farmer's wife: My husband came back and the house was in chaos

Chapter 441: Blind date? The one I met is my own man

After Shen Haobo fell asleep, she quietly put on her clothes and left, returning to her own courtyard before dawn. The wet nurse was pacing around in the courtyard anxiously. The lady had not come back all night, and she wanted to send someone to look for her, but she was worried about ruining the lady's reputation, so she could only remain silent and wait anxiously. Finally, when it was almost dawn, the lady came back.

"Madam, where have you been?" The nanny quickly asked her to go back to the house.

"Nanny, I accidentally got drunk and fell asleep in the backyard last night." Yan Huan's face was flushed, and there was a faint smell of alcohol wafting from his body.

"I was so scared. I thought something happened to you. Madam, this is the Shen Mansion, not our home. You'd better be careful. If someone sees you, it will cause gossip and it will be hard to explain." The wet nurse breathed a sigh of relief and didn't doubt her. She let her change her clothes and go back to her room to rest.

Yan Huan nodded, changed into clean clothes and lay on the bed, her mind full of scenes of making love with Shen Haobo...

Yao Qingnian didn't know about the mess happening in the mansion. She was preparing to go to the border canyon. She was almost ready and decided to set off the day after tomorrow. It would take about ten days to get to the border. After getting there, she would rest and go into the mountains, just in time to catch up with the time when the miasma was at its weakest.

The next day, she went to the Duke's Mansion and told Chen Shuhua and the others that she was going to the border valley to look for medicine.

"Mom, I came here today to..."

Before she could say anything, she was interrupted by Chen Shuhua.

"Nianran, how are you thinking about the marriage I talked about last time?!"

"What marriage?" Yao Qingnian was confused. What the hell?

"Mother has discussed this with your grandparents these days and has found a good marriage for you." Chen Shuhua said with a smile, "Didn't I say before that someone like King Jing is not suitable for you, so we carefully looked for some for you, and finally chose someone. As for him, no matter his status or family background, mother thinks he is quite suitable for you."

"Ah? Mother... No need, I can take care of my own affairs." She had been arranged by Chen Shuhua without knowing it. No, no, it seemed that she had to find an opportunity to confess to her and tell her the truth that she was a married woman.

"Nianran, don't worry. It's just right. He will come to our house with your uncle Zheng Cheng for a simple meal in a while. It's not too late to talk about it after you have seen her. If you really don't like her, we can look for another one. Mother won't force you." Chen Shuhua said with a smile.

"Really?" Since it's just a meeting, it doesn't matter. I can just find an excuse to refuse when the time comes.

"Of course. No one can force you if you don't like it." Chen Shuhua nodded.

While they were talking, the servants brought news that Zheng Cheng was coming with his men. Old Madam Chen asked Chen Shuhua and Yao Qingnian to go and take a look.

"Oh, if you speak of the devil, he will appear. Come on, Nianran, let's go and take a look."

After saying that, she stood up and took Yao Qingnian to the front hall. On the way there, she had already thought of many ways to refuse.

When they arrived at the front hall, Zheng Cheng was chatting with the old Duke and the others. They stopped talking when a servant came to report that Chen Shuhua and the others were coming.

"Father and mother."

"Grandpa and grandma."

The mother and daughter first paid their respects to the old Duke and his wife.

"Get up and come and sit down. We are all family, no need to be polite." Old Duke Chen smiled brightly, and Chen Shuhua walked to Old Madam Chen and sat down.

Yao Qingnian had been looking at Duke Chen and his wife since he entered the room, and had not noticed anyone else. After paying his respects, he was about to find a place to sit down, but was stopped by the old Duke Chen: "Nianran, let me introduce you, this is Captain Lu."

"Have you met...Captain Lu?" Yao Qingnian raised her head and looked to the side, and saw Lu Huaijin's mouth curled up, and he happened to be looking at her. What were they doing? After all this time, they wanted to introduce their husbands to her.

"Captain Lu, this is my granddaughter, Shen Nianran." Duke Chen saw the look in the two people's eyes and immediately felt that there was something going on, so he continued to introduce them.

"Miss Shen." Lu Huaijin also replied to Yao Qingnian.

Yao Qingnian smiled awkwardly and sat down next to Chen Shuhua.

"Where were we talking about just now? Yes, we were talking about Captain Lu who is young and promising. Even the emperor praised him highly. I wonder where Captain Lu's home is?" The old Duke began to check the household registration.

"Reporting to the Duke, my family lives in Anding County, which is quite far from the capital." Lu Huaijin said calmly.

"Well, it's a bit far. Are you used to living in the capital? Zheng Cheng has always said that you are hardworking and down-to-earth, and a rare talent. After seeing you today..." Old Duke Chen's eyes were full of admiration.

"Ahem..." Old Madam Chen coughed twice, and immediately a servant came to add tea. When it came to Lu Huaijin, the teapot in the servant's hand suddenly shook, spilling all over him: "Captain Lu, please forgive me, I didn't mean it." The servant hurriedly apologized.

"Oh, look at you, you are so clumsy that you can't even pour a cup of tea properly. Go down and accept your punishment!" The old Duke scolded, and then apologized: "Captain Lu, I'm sorry, it's us who didn't discipline the servants in our mansion well."

"nothing."

"Nianran, I have something to discuss with your uncle Zheng Cheng. You are familiar with the mansion, so take Captain Lu downstairs to change clothes!"

Old Duke Chen said with a smile.

"Yes, girl, go quickly! It's a good opportunity to take Captain Lu for a walk around the mansion." Zheng Cheng also echoed.

"Yes, Captain Lu, please follow me."

The looks in their eyes were so obvious that they had clearly let the servants pour the tea on Lu Huaijin on purpose. With a total of eight hundred plots against them, Yao Qingnian pretended not to see them all. He nodded, stood up and asked Lu Huaijin to follow him.

"My Lord, I will go down and take care of it first."

"go Go."

After the others left, Duke Chen and his friends started to discuss: "I think Captain Lu is a good guy, he is mature and steady."

"He's a good candidate." Chen Shuhua nodded.

"I've been paying attention to this guy for a long time in the military camp." Zheng Cheng was also very satisfied with him.

"However, father, I heard that Captain Lu is the son-in-law of General Jiang's mansion. If we match them up randomly, will it cause trouble for them..."

"You can rest assured. I have inquired about it. He has no relationship with Miss Jiang. It was only because of General Jiang's cultivation that he helped with the funeral. After handling General Jiang's funeral, he left the Jiang Mansion and did not have much contact with them."

"Really? We need to find out clearly." She had some concerns in her heart. What if this man was just like Shen Wenting, and had an affair with other women before? It would be troublesome if there was a quarrel after the marriage.

"Well, but just to be on the safe side, I think we should send someone to his hometown to inquire about it." Zheng Cheng felt that to be on the safe side, he had to find out the boy's background.
