To Hold One’s Joy

  Chapter 498 Life experience

  Second Uncle Sheng looked at Luo Sheng without batting an eye: "Your cousin is about to discuss marriage, how can you go away at this time."

  Sheng Saburo was shocked: "Cousin wants to discuss marriage? With whom?"

  Sheng Dalang and Sheng Erlang were even more stunned.

  Luo Chen frowned subconsciously, always feeling that Uncle Sheng's words were unreliable.

  His sister is discussing marriage, why doesn't he know?

  Thinking like this, he looked at Luo Sheng.

  Luo Sheng's face remained calm, but he was also shocked in his heart: In order to make it seem logical for her not to go to Jinsha, did Governor Luo find such a difficult reason?

   "Father, who is my cousin talking about?" Sheng Sanlang was very curious.

  Second Uncle Sheng glared at him, and scolded: "Is this what you should inquire about?"

  Sheng Sanlang glanced at Luo Sheng, and dared not say anything.

  Second Uncle Sheng cupped his hands at Governor Luo: "Brother-in-law, things are a little urgent. I plan to leave tomorrow. Please make arrangements for Chen'er."

  Luo Dadu nodded again and again: "Let go early, I am also thinking about the old lady. When I have a chance in the future, I will take Sheng'er to see her old man."

  Second Uncle Sheng thanked the two nephews: "Da Lang, Er Lang, hurry up and ask for leave at the Yamen."

  Sheng Dalang and Sheng Erlang got up together and left the restaurant in a hurry.

  Second Uncle Sheng and Governor Luo stayed in the restaurant, drinking all afternoon.

  Sheng Saburo saw it in his eyes, and he believed in the fact that his grandmother was sick: Alas, such a generous and fat man like his father began to use alcohol to drown his sorrows!

   Thinking about leaving the familiar wine shop tomorrow, Sheng Saburo walked into the courtyard, patted the persimmon tree and said sadly: "Persimmon tree, if you come back after this walk, you will probably be covered with red persimmons."

  Shi Yan didn't know how many people were talking in the private room. Hearing this, he asked curiously: "Sanlang, where are you going?"

  Sheng Saburo sat down on the stone bench and sighed: "Back to Jinsha, my grandmother is ill."

   "Ah, don't worry, the old lady will be fine." Shi Yan patted Sheng Sanlang on the shoulder and sat down opposite.

  Sheng Saburo nodded: "My grandmother is in good health, she probably misses us so much, she misses us so much."

  Shi Yan glanced at Sheng Sanlang's round face, and thought that if she was sick from longing, old lady Sheng might not be in a good mood when she saw her grandson who had gained weight twice.

  Of course, when people are worried, this must not be said.

   "Then Second Uncle Sheng will go back too?" Shi Yan asked casually.

   "Well, my father, elder brother, second elder brother, and cousin Chen all returned together."

  Shi Yan hurriedly asked: "What about Miss Luo?"

  The mission of him and his fourth brother is to protect Miss Luo. If Miss Luo goes to Jinsha, they have to go with her.

   "My cousin won't come back, she wants to discuss marriage."

   "What?" Shi Yan bounced off the stone bench.

  Sheng Saburo was taken aback by Shi Yan's reaction, and looked at him blankly.

  Shi Yan was even more at a loss, and blurted out: "Who is Miss Luo talking about marriage with? Our master is not here."

"have no idea."

  Shi Yan was in a hurry: "Sanlang, we are so familiar, why are you still hiding it?"

   "I really don't know." Sheng Sanlang looked helpless, "I was scolded by my father as soon as I asked."

  Shi Yan walked back and forth for a few steps with his hands behind his back, then suddenly stopped: "No, I'll go to Hongdou to inquire about it."

   "About marriage? The girl didn't mention it to us." Hongdou looked in disbelief.

  Shi Yan looked at Kouer.

Ko'er was much more stable, and analyzed seriously: "Since we are discussing marriage, it must not be your master. How can we discuss it when no one is in the capital? I guess it is Mr. Lin. Recently, he often looks at the persimmon tree with our girl. .”

  Shi Yan staggered away as if struck by lightning.

  No, he has to report to his master immediately!

   After writing a letter, it was crushed by the little guard again.

  Can’t send it, if this letter is sent to the master, what should the master do if he reads it and is affected by the blow?

   If you lose the fight, you will die. If you win the fight, you will come back. In the worst case, you can get your wife back.

   That's all, it's up to him to keep an eye on him during this period of time. Once Miss Luo and Lin Teng show signs of getting engaged, he will encourage Xue Xue to take Dabai to the gate of Lin's residence for a stroll.

  Sheng Dalang and Sheng Erlang successfully took leave of absence from Shangfeng. Needless to say, the news that Luo Chen is going back to Jinsha is generally spread in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.

  Aunts came to visit Luo Chen's residence one after another, even the second girl Luo Qing, whose temperament changed drastically because of Pingli's incident, went there.

  Finally sent away a group of women, Luo Chen ordered Fu Song with a dark face: "Please come, third girl."

  Just as Fu Song was about to go out, he simply got up: "Forget it, I'll go to Xianyun Garden."

  In Xianyun Garden, Luo Sheng was making arrangements for Luo Chen to go out tomorrow, when he heard that Luo Chen was coming, he ordered someone to invite him to the study.

   "Is my sister busy?"

   "Well, you are going on a long journey tomorrow, and I will prepare some things for you to take with you."

  Luo Chen lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on the sapphire paperweight placed on the desk.

  The little cyan Pixiu holds its head high and holds its chest high, with a naive look.

   "Is it really because grandma is sick?" Luo Chen asked suddenly.

  Luo Sheng looked at him calmly: "Why do you ask that? Would uncle make fun of grandma's body?"

  Luo Chen was silent for a moment, and said lightly: "Uncle and father drank wine in the afternoon, and ate a pot of fish, two sauced elbows, and three plates of braised beef."

  Luo Sheng: "..."

The young man looked serious and stared into Luo Sheng's eyes: "I know how my second uncle feels about my grandmother. If my grandmother is really sick to the point where my second uncle takes my three cousins ​​and me back, how can I have the appetite to eat so much. "

  Luo Sheng has nothing to say.

  One pot of fish, two sauced elbows, three plates of stewed beef, what else can I say?

Luo Chen didn't give up his intention to ask clearly: "My sister also said that it is impossible for my uncle to make fun of my grandmother's body. Now that I have used this reason, it means that there is a stronger relationship. Sister, I am fifteen years old. I don’t want to be a child forever in your eyes, I am the only male in this generation of the Metropolitan Government, and I have the right to know the truth.”

  The boy's eyes were burning, calm and persistent.

  Luo Sheng was silent for a long time, and asked: "Do you really want to know the truth?"

  Luo Chen nodded.

   "Knowing too much, carefree days are gone."

  The young man smiled, very calmly: "Sister, one cannot be carefree forever."

   After a brief silence, Luo Sheng asked: "Do you still remember the token I asked to leave from you a few days ago?"

"Um."

   "That's the Suzaku Order, which can order the Suzaku Guards of the Zhennan Palace."

  Hearing Luo Sheng say this calmly, Luo Chen frowned slightly.

   "Luo Chen." Luo Sheng called out.

  Luo Chen looked at her quietly.

   "Why do you say that the Suzaku Order of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion is in the cage where you put your childhood toys?"

  It was as if a small hammer hit the boy's heart lightly, knocking out the cracks in the shell of self-deception. At this moment, the doubts for days finally found a way out.

  The boy's face turned pale little by little, and he asked softly, "So I'm not actually your brother?"

  Thank you for donating 10,000 coins, and thank you everyone who tipped and voted. See you tomorrow.
