In the era of rebirth, the charming daughter-in-law in the courtyard is beautiful and sassy.

Chapter 816: The Root Is Here
Duan Zhuangyu looked unhappy when she heard what her stepmother-in-law said: "Aunt Jiang, I know it's not right to do this, but there is really no better way at the moment. I'm also anxious, so I want to let my younger brother stay at home for a few days.

Once Gaodi has gathered all the books and materials, I will pick him up. Do you think you can help me?"

Originally, there was nothing wrong with relatives helping each other, but the youngest son of the Duan family was spoiled too much by his family. If he were really allowed to live at home, he would probably have no peace of mind.

Besides, if he were to come, how could Jiayuan concentrate on her studies? Duan Zhuangyu clearly knew the character of his younger brother, yet he still dared to make such an unreasonable request. He really thinks he is a piece of cake.

Duan Zhuangyu wanted to argue a little more, but unexpectedly, her father-in-law Huo Shanhe's voice came in: "Jiayuan, look who's here."

The three people in the room looked towards the door at the same time, and saw the Lu family following Huo Shanhe, each holding gifts in their hands.

Huo Shanhe came in and said, "Jingya, Brother Lu and his wife are here."

Jiang Jingya quickly put away the displeasure on her face and put on a smiling expression: "Changting, Yinghua, come in quickly."

With guests coming to the house, Duan Zhuangyu didn't want to continue. He wanted to ask his sister-in-law for some books and information, but he was afraid of causing trouble, so he had to leave in disappointment.

After the Huo and Lu families exchanged a few pleasantries, Lu's mother went straight to the point: "I believe you all know about the two children. Our two families have known each other for a long time and know each other well. We are naturally happy to see the two children's affairs come to fruition. What do you think?"

Lu Licheng is considered to be the best among the children in the compound, so Huo Shanhe and Jiang Jingya naturally have no objection.

After Jiang Jingya returned to Beijing, she privately asked her daughter about her feelings. Seeing the light in her daughter's eyes when she talked about Lu Licheng, she knew that her daughter was not acting on impulse: "Since the two children love each other, we will not object. However, Yinghua, you just said that our two families know each other well. I believe you also know about the affairs of my Jiayuan and Du Shujian, and I believe you have heard about the entanglement between them.

Since you have sincerely come to ask for marriage today, we as elders naturally want to make things right for them, but I must also be frank with you, you must think carefully about it. If they really succeed, we will not easily bring up the matter in the future."

After hearing this, Lu Licheng quickly stood up and said, "Aunt, I am serious about Jiayuan and will never do anything to hurt him. I know that no matter what I say now, you may not believe it.

But I still want to explain that I actually fell in love with Jiayuan a long time ago, but before I had the chance to express it, I learned that she already had a partner, so I could only put my feelings aside sadly. "

When these words were spoken, both parents were stunned. They really didn't know that this boy had already had feelings for Jiayuan for a long time.

When Huo Jiayuan heard him admit it himself, her face turned red instantly. She lowered her head for a long time and didn't dare to raise it. This guy was really too fierce. It was really embarrassing to say this in front of both parents.

It was Lu's mother, Sun Yinghua, who was the first to say, "You little brat, no wonder you tried your best to stop me every time I urged you to go on a blind date. So this is the reason."

Father Lu was more direct: "Good boy, good job."

After this incident, Jiang Jingya didn't know what to say.

The affair between Huo Jiayuan and Lu Licheng has been made public, and it has been decided that their wedding will be after the college entrance examination. The specific time will be determined by the two families at that time.
