Chapter 290 Apprenticeship
Mu Shen frowned slightly, "I have no impression, sister, please refuse, I'm only fourteen, I can't do anything, I don't think about it for the time being."

Seeing the seriousness and doubts in his eyes, Mu Zhixu knew that he really had no impression and didn't want to get engaged.

Naturally, she would not force her younger brother.

Furthermore, she hopes that her younger siblings will have someone who is like-minded to accompany her for a lifetime, and the same goes for her cousins.

Marriage is a major event and cannot be sloppy.

"Don't worry, sister understands."

With these words, Mu Shen felt relieved.

However, Mu Zhixu still asked people to inquire about Feng's family. They had no trace in the capital. How could the fourth-rank official family come to marry them eagerly?There may be some ulterior secret in the middle.But the results found were somewhat unexpected.

The Feng family is indeed upright. Although Mr. Feng is a smooth official, he also has his own bottom line, so he is considered a good official.

What surprised Mu Zhixu the most was that Master Feng had only one wife and no concubines. His two sons and one daughter were both born to Mrs. Feng. Miss Feng was fifteen years old and just reached the age of Ji.

She has a good reputation, although she is a bit spoiled, but not overbearing and unreasonable, generally speaking, she is a good girl.

On the third day, Mu Zhixu asked someone to invite a matchmaker, and then declined the marriage.

The matchmaker was surprised that such a good marriage was not wanted.

But the reason Mu Zhixu gave was that her younger brother was still young, and she would have to be at least sixteen before getting engaged.

This left the matchmaker a little speechless, after all... Miss Feng's family is one year older than Mr. Mu.

The Feng family didn't find out how old he was.

The matchmaker went to Feng's mansion with a generous reward from Mu Zhixu.

The generous reward made her unable to speak out against her conscience, so when facing the expectant Miss Feng and the indifferent Master Feng, the matchmaker's smile was a little stiff, but he still said good things, "Although Princess Yaoguang temporarily refused the marriage, but I didn't say it would be impossible in the future, but I met Mr. Mu today, with a dignified appearance and clear eyes, he is a rare good boy."

Mrs. Feng glanced at her daughter warningly, and then looked at the matchmaker indifferently, "Just pretend that this never happened, and you also pretend that you never went to the princess mansion..."

"Mother!" Miss Feng interrupted Mrs. Feng, "I..."

"Meier!"

Although Miss Feng closed her mouth, she still looked at Mrs. Feng stubbornly.

The matchmaker thought for a while, and then said, "It's not surprising, Mr. Mu is only fourteen, and the family should wait for two years..."

Her words were held back abruptly by Mrs. Feng's cold eyes.

"Come here, see off the guests!" Madam Feng brought tea to see off the guests. The matchmaker stood up and saw that the servant girl was holding a purse in her hand, but her eyes didn't change much.

"Ma'am, the Fu family has sent an invitation card!" When the matchmaker turned around and took two steps, suddenly a maid walked in with the invitation card.

"The Fu family?" Mrs. Feng was a little excited.

The reason why the Fu family was able to send invitations to Feng's family was entirely because Mr. Feng and the uncle of the Fu family were friends, otherwise the Fu family would not have responded to the Feng family.

"Yes ma'am, I heard that Mr. Fu is going to accept a closed disciple, and he is the younger brother of Princess Yaoguang." The servant girl smiled flatteringly.

She has already asked the person who sent the post.

Mrs. Feng was taken aback, "Which younger brother? Which younger brother of Princess Yaoguang?"

"Eldest son!"

Mrs. Feng's complexion suddenly became complicated. When the matchmaker heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and he walked away from Feng's house.

His footsteps looked a little brisk.

The news that Mr. Fu was going to accept another disciple spread throughout the capital overnight, and many scholars stayed up all night.

How many officials' children are indignant.

They have all begged in front of Mr. Fu, but they have never received Mr. Fu's own eyes.

Just when the imperial examination was about to start, this incident became even more heated. Many people secretly said that Mu Shen had gotten lucky, and smoke was rising from the ancestral grave of Princess Yaoguang's house.

No matter how outrageous the outside rumors are, the princess's mansion is still calm, without any clues, and even the servants are quite flattered.

It's really strange.

Gu Lin came back from the barracks and went straight to the princess mansion.

"Woo!" Gu Lin almost ran into a carriage at the corner, and Gu Lin quickly reined in the strong rope.

"Whose carriage?" Beiyin's face turned cold, and this position happened to be able to see Princess Yaoguang's mansion.

Gu Lin's face also turned cold.

The coachman was startled by his aura, and before he could speak, the people in the carriage had already lifted the curtain.

A girl with a pretty face, "I've met Marquis Dingyuan, Master Feng, my father's servant."

"Master Feng's family?" Beiyin glanced suspiciously, and the carriage was indeed the logo of Master Feng's family.

Gu Lin didn't say a word, she turned her gaze away and rode her horse towards the Princess's Mansion, got off her horse, threw the whip to the guard at the door, and walked straight in.

"If only I could go in so openly." Bei Yin was about to follow, when he heard a word full of envy.

He gave Miss Feng a strange look, and then entered the mansion.

"Miss..." The servant girl looked at Feng Wanmei worriedly, she was afraid, Miss was too courageous.

The madam clearly forbids the young lady to come to see Mr. Mu.

"What are you afraid of? I'm still there when the sky falls, and besides, I didn't do anything." Feng Wan stared at the door of the princess mansion without blinking.

Looking forward to Mu Shen coming out of it.

But her expectations were doomed to be in vain, Mu Shen was not at the house at all, he and Mu Yuan went to Fu's house.

In the princess mansion, Gu Lin took a sip of tea and said, "What happened, why is the Feng family's carriage outside the mansion?"

Mu Zhixu was surprised, "Feng's carriage? Feng Wanmei?"

"should be."

"...you are so courageous."

Then, she told about the Feng family's coming to marry, and Gu Lin paused for a moment, "Ah Shen is still young."

Why do I feel like my cabbage is about to be raped by a pig? Is it because I watched it grow up with my own eyes?
He shook his head, and after getting rid of the messy things in his mind, he said, "Ah Shen and the others carefully choose their marriage, we are not in a hurry,"

Mu Zhixu looked at him jokingly, "Have you already worried about it so soon?"

"Of course, they are all family anyway."

"Not yet."

"Yes."

"..."

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, and on this day, there was an endless stream of carriages heading towards Fu's residence.

Mu Zhixu had already prepared Mu Shen's teacher apprentice ceremony. She took it out from the space, and collected Hui ink for a long time, as well as ancient prescriptions for health, thousand-year-old wild ginseng, a set of century-old tea sets, and everything needed for apprenticeship. Li Xin, six kinds of bundle repair.

The thousand-year-old wild ginseng alone shocked all the guests.

This... only one is kept in the imperial palace, Princess Yaoguang has such a great handwriting.

The eyes of the guests changed.

Mu Zhixu didn't feel it, she glanced at her younger brother, Mu Shen straightened himself, moved forward steadily, knelt down on the futon, bowed three times and kowtowed nine times.

The young man was dressed in a blue brocade robe, with white jade around his waist, with straight eyebrows and a tall and straight figure.
