Chapter 108 Proposals
"I know, you always have a way. But this time is different. This time it's Cheng Enhou's mansion, which is different from the previous Langzhong from the sixth rank. You have no way to get out of him. So, you Stop meddling."

Jiang Zhixia knew too well the influence of the Marquis of Cheng En.She was very grateful to Chu Tiankuo for not avoiding him after learning about it.This is also worthy of her giving him all those businesses.

"You." Chu Tiankuo said softly, "There is no unparalleled road, you know? When you encounter something, don't think about giving up. You can always find a way."

Jiang Zhixia didn't take it for granted.She thought about it for a long time, but there was no good way.Although benefits can allow people to help themselves, it also depends on what is being helped.

Because helping also has a bottom line.

Chu Tiankuo looked at Jiang Zhixia's disbelief, and didn't tell the truth.

"You guys go and get some tea and snacks. I'll discuss things with you girls."

Chu Tiankuo sat down on the chair next to Jiang Zhixia, and gave instructions in an anti-customer manner.

Uncle He and the others took a look at Jiang Zhixia, and seeing that she had no objection, they hurriedly made tea and desserts.

After waiting for them to serve tea and snacks, they avoided them according to Chu Tiankuo's gestures.

"That Mr. Liu, is it really tough to take you as a concubine?" Chu Tiankuo asked first.

Although his heart was full of sourness, he still had to ask clearly first.Problem solving comes first.

"Yes. Very tough. I rejected the matchmaker twice, and the third time he came in person. I told all the reasons, including my poor health and infertility, but in the end he still wanted to accept me. "Jiang Zhixia said with certainty.

After she finished speaking, seeing that Chu Tiankuo didn't react at all to her infertility, she felt strange instead.

Chu Tiankuo was thoughtful, and suddenly noticed that Jiang Zhixia's gaze had been fixed on him, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? What do you remember?"

"It's nothing. It's just," Jiang Zhixia wasn't sure if Chu Tiankuo heard what he said just now.Thinking about it, that's not that important.So, he went on to say: "I always feel that he is not for me - although he said so. However, I really have self-knowledge."

Chu Tiankuo shook his head disapprovingly, and said seriously, "It's great to know Xia!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Jiang Zhixia to refute, he went on to say: "No matter why he wants to accept you, the final result is to accept you. Therefore, we must solve this problem first."

Seeing Jiang Zhixia nodding his head, Chu Tiankuo was about to say something when he stopped suddenly.

He looked up at Jiang Zhixia, and slowly began to think.

"Zhixia, I have a proposal," Chu Tiankuo said with a straight face, but carefully observed Jiang Zhixia's expression in his heart, "Shall we get engaged?"

"What?" Jiang Zhixia stood up from the chair in surprise, almost brushing off the teacup with her sleeves.

Chu Tiankuo quickly picked it up.

"That's right. We assume the relationship—not all the assumptions. The process still needs to be followed." Chu Tiankuo explained hastily.

Jiang Zhixia understood when he heard this.

"Why?" Jiang Zhixia sat down again slowly, and then asked suspiciously.

"We have engaged, then you will be my unmarried wife. After all, I am the third rank's lieutenant general, and I am the adopted son of the mighty Marquis. My wife also has an imperial order. Then Liu Wenli naturally cannot accept you." Chu Tiankuo hurriedly explained.

"But like this, don't you just let you confront him directly? In the future, if he tries to deal with you, what should we do?" Jiang Zhixia frowned and said, "No, no, I can't hurt you like this."

"You, you are worthy of coming out of the Empress's Palace. You take everything in the Marquis of Chengen's Mansion too seriously. Although the Marquis of Cheng'en's Mansion is precious, Liu Wenli is just a concubine of the third master of the Marquis of Cheng'en's mansion. That's all. How can he match up with me because he has no rank or grade?" Chu Tiankuo comforted with a smile.

"I'm not afraid that he will come overtly, but I'm afraid that he will come secretly."

Jiang Zhixia also read novels and watched TV in her previous life.If this kind of son of a noble family wants to deal with people, if he uses all kinds of schemes and tricks, it will be really hard to guard against.

Besides, the ancient clan society paid more attention to family honor.If Marquis Cheng En dealt with Chu Tiankuo in order to protect the people in his mansion, it would be fatal.

Chengenhou and the concubine of Chengenhou's mansion are not the same concept.

"I have my own way to deal with that Liu Wenli. It's just that I need you to be married to me, so I can handle it when I have a name." Chu Tiankuo looked at Jiang Zhixia's hesitation, and explained in detail, "My adoptive father asked me to Many people in the military know about the matter of my own engagement. I found a matchmaker, and it is not too much to do the ceremony first. When the time comes, when our names are settled, you will be considered a member of the army. Not to mention that I am from the third rank With his official position, as the righteous son of the mighty Marquis, didn’t you say that you could bluff people? Then Liu Wenli must not dare to act recklessly..."

Seeing that Jiang Zhixia was still skeptical, he added, "At least I dare not act foolishly."

"As for the future, let's talk about it when we encounter problems. Let's settle this matter first." Chu Tiankuo continued to persuade.

Jiang Zhixia was still a little confused.She didn't want to hurt anyone, especially brother Chu who was so kind to him.However, it is human nature to want to live.Who wants to die if they can live?
"If you make an engagement with me, you will still be helping me." Chu Tiankuo observed her words and expressions, and naturally saw what she was thinking, so he said again.

Jiang Zhixia turned to look at him suspiciously.

"Miss Zhu Biao, do you still remember?"

Jiang Zhixia shook his head doubtfully.Miss Zhu Biao, I have no impression at all.

"It was Miss Zhu Biao from the Mighty Marquis Mansion that we met when we went for an outing." Chu Tiankuo hurriedly explained.

Oh, that white lotus is still green tea.He didn't care about her much, just acted like that hypocritical woman that Brother Chu had always abandoned.

Seeing Jiang Zhixia nodded, Chu Tiankuo continued: "It turns out that she is the concubine of Mrs. Wei Wuhou's natal younger brother. Lord Hou called me over a while ago and said he would be a matchmaker for me. He was talking about this Miss Zhu Biao. I am very happy." You don’t like women like that, you know that, right?”

When Chu Tiankuo was on a green outing, he could tell that Jiang Zhixia didn't like the behavior of Miss Zhu Biao.

"At that time, I told Lord Hou that I already had a sweetheart and was discussing marriage, so I declined. However, Mrs. Hou has been sending people to look for me these days, and I have been avoiding it. We are engaged, and I just agreed According to what I said before, this marriage can be postponed."

Chu Tiankuo did not lie.Wei Wuhou had indeed mentioned this marriage, Chu Tiankuo had indeed rejected it, and Mrs. Wei Wuhou had indeed asked someone to find him.He has indeed been avoiding it.

However, this matter is not what is happening now, it has happened for more than a month.

After Jiang Zhixia heard this, he first thought that he could not destroy Chu Tiankuo's road to Qingyun.Later, I thought about how Miss Zhu Biao behaved, she was really not worthy of Chu Tiankuo.Most importantly, Chu Tiankuo himself doesn't like her either.

If the two are engaged, she can refuse the marriage from the Marquis of Cheng En, and Chu Tiankuo can refuse the marriage from the Marquis of Weiwu. In this way, both of them can get rid of the marriage they don't like, which is pretty good.Therefore, it was a little shaken.

Chu Tiankuo naturally saw Jiang Zhixia's vacillation, and hurriedly said: "Think about it, we are engaged, and the problems on both sides can be resolved at the least cost, isn't it great?"

"Just pretending to be a relative? It won't delay Brother Chu, right?"

"No, of course not." Chu Tiankuo replied firmly.

He didn't say he wanted to pretend to be a relative.

Without this matter, he might not have found an opportunity to get involved with Zhixia.

He didn't want to procrastinate any longer, he was afraid that if he procrastinated any longer, another person would run out to grab Zhixia from him.

First of all, the name must be settled.
