Great Benevolent Man Liu was so angry that he pointed at her nose and scolded: "Nonsense, you unfilial daughter, even if the imperial government chooses your daughter, since I, your father, have received the news today, I will still have to plan things out for you. The county still has many students today, tomorrow I will send people to quietly pick them.

"Lan Er, quickly get up, everything has to do with parents, Master, we have been receiving your help since childhood, and now it is time to repay this kindness. Whether it is in terms of character or looks, my Lan Er would never lose to the young miss of the Shangguan Family, let alone a cousin, this is the perfect place for marriage! Right now, the Imperial Court is selecting a girl, how can we just watch our daughter enter the place of wolves and tigers?"

Her family was just a merchant, even if she entered the palace, Liu Yulan would probably start from the lowest class of palace maid, she could not even compare to the lady from a commoner family, who could fly up the branches and become a phoenix.

She continued: Furthermore, the county is so big, you should know which families have students, and if there was a good one, they would have already been engaged, so how could they possibly find one that is the same age as me, Lan Er.

"Daddy, I'm not going to marry anyone but my cousin. If you don't want me to marry you, then I'm going to jump into the river!"

Great Benevolent Man Liu only had such a precious daughter in his life, how could he not feel sorry for her.

Great Benevolent Man Liu was annoyed, but after being forced by Madam Liu to this extent, he had no choice but to obey: "I will go and find him, Lan Er has been waiting for him for the past few years. For the sake of past relations, he should be marrying our Lan Er."

He immediately grabbed a cloak and rushed to the front yard, then called for a servant to prepare a carriage. He planned to travel through the night to the small mountain village, because the mountain road was not easy to walk through at night.

At this time, he was sitting in the hall with a tense expression, waiting for Yang Zixuan to bring up a marriage proposal. However, when he was about to say something, Yang Zixuan spoke first.

"Nephew has always respected uncle and is absolutely not unfilial. Uncle's words just now were so unreasonable, please forgive me for not being able to understand for a moment."

Yang Zixuan did not want to bring up Liu Yulan's worries. His attitude towards Liu Yulan had been clear for the past few years, and since Great Benevolent Man Liu was a businessman, how could he not understand the logic behind it?

"Hmph. Stop arguing with me. Let me ask you this. Is your cousin always on good terms with you?"

Yang Zixuan quickly replied: "Yes!"

"Do you really not know what Lan Er is thinking?"

"Understood!"

"You should know why you didn't come to propose marriage, but instead only sent a person to deliver a letter asking Lan Er and I to look for someone else."

Yang Zixuan sighed in his heart, then said: "Uncle, please do not be angry, my nephew has always treated his cousin like a brother, there is no other reason." His heart had already been given to that Lil 'Chili Pepper. How could he allow others to do as he pleased?

The Great Benevolent Man Liu was furious for a moment, he slapped the table and said: "Hmph, even if you pretend to be stupid now, I will leave your words here, quickly go to my house and propose the marriage, the heptachlor will write first, and then I will write a letter to prepare a gift and send it to the house of the Marquis. I know that you will only think of Lan Er as your younger sister, but not only is our Liu Family has him by the side, she is also considered to be extremely wealthy.

Moreover, the Liu family was famous for being rich. For the sake of Liu Yulan's remaining life, Great Benevolent Man Liu truly hoped that Yang Zixuan would be able to obtain this fortune in the future. For the sake of his cousin, he would treat Liu Yulan well, and only pity her parents.

Yang Zixuan laughed bitterly: "Uncle, I'm afraid that my nephew will have to disappoint you, uncle, don't worry, first listen to me, I have lost my mother when I was young, and have only survived because uncle used too much silver in a place like the Hou Mansion. To me, Yang Zixuan, an uncle and a mother will never be separated in their lives, and for my cousin's words, I will be like a brother watching over and doing things for them, uncle knows what uncle is thinking, but I hope uncle can forgive me, not to mention the fact that I have already arranged a marriage with wood girl."

"What?" That Sly... You mean his sister? " Great Benevolent Man Liu was so angry that he trembled as he pointed at Mu Jinzhi.

"Master Liu, it's fine if we have a happy occasion, but, what does Master Liu mean by this? Do you doubt my sister? No matter what, she is the niece of a third rank official, not to mention if outsiders see her, they would have to address me as Master raising child.

Mu Jinzhi stood up and looked at him in disgust. Back then, if he did not incite Master Zhou and ask someone to smash his rice shop, Zhou Haoran would not have noticed him. Zhou Jing Ran would not have suffered so much.

At the end of the day, it was because Great Benevolent Man Liu did the pushing behind his back, but he had only cleaned his head and tail, which was why he couldn't be found out. It was also because he was Yang Zixuan's uncle that he stopped pursuing the matter after the Liu family let go of him.

Yang Zixuan was afraid that the two of them would fall out, and he knew of the matters of the past. He stood out and said: "Uncle, let us discuss the marriage in detail, my nephew absolutely does not have the principle of stopping his wife from marrying." He told Great Benevolent Man Liu that he was definitely going to marry Mu Rousang.

When Great Benevolent Man Liu heard Mu Jinzhi's words, he remembered that the Mu Clan was different from the past.

Yang Zixuan had clearly been brought up in his care, and he had also spent a lot of energy to cultivate him, yet in the end, someone else had plucked the fruit away. How could he not be angry?

"Hmph, Xuan'er, you are truly ungrateful!" Your younger cousin has always rejected many engagements in order to wait for you to propose. Now that she's seventeen, how could she choose a good family to marry! "

At that time, he had just gotten rid of the control of the Madam Hou and left the manor with the help of her. When he came to the Liu family suddenly, a little girl called him Big Brother, the sudden love made his heart full, and he treated Liu Yulan as if she was her little sister.

"Uncle, it's not that I'm ungrateful, it's just that uncle treats me with kindness. In the future, when uncle gets old, nephew will also be like his son and father, sending him to the end of his life. Only …" A favor could not be exchanged for the woman he loved.

"Yang Zixuan!" Great Benevolent Man Liu was angered by the noise. He slammed his hand on the table, causing the blue and white porcelain tea cup to roll a few times on the table. After pouring a cup of hot water, it slowly fell to the ground. It broke into pieces.

The three people in the room were all stunned as they looked at the teacup as if they were deep in thought.

"Young Master Mu, I'm sorry, this old man didn't do it on purpose." The Great Benevolent Man Liu cupped his hands politely towards Mu Jinzhi.

Mu Jinzhi laughed: It's just a cup, it's normal for Master Liu to be angry, it's just that Big Brother Yang has already set a marriage, for the three of us to carefully discuss and make a decision on Miss Liu's marriage, and then find a good place for her to live, for Master Liu, it's just worried that Miss Liu will be taken away by someone else in the future.

Great Benevolent Man Liu, however, heard it from the left, and thought: This boy still has some eyes, he knows that Yang Zixuan is related to him by blood.

"Alright, let's sit down and talk!"

Yang Zixuan was initially in a difficult position, but now that the Great Benevolent Man Liu was willing to sit down and talk with him, he was naturally happy to do so.

"Xuan'er, the reason why I came here was to ask you to marry Lan Er. But now, you and Miss Mu have decided that there's no reason for you to break off your engagement. Our family is not that unreasonable."

Mu Jinzhi secretly looked at him with disdain. With Liu Yulan's virtue, she actually dared to stand shoulder to shoulder with her sister.

"Uncle, it's impossible to annul the engagement, my parents originally promised me the marriage. I came here to propose the marriage, but I just happened to run into the matter of selecting a daughter, so I was in a hurry."

Although Yang Zixuan received the news, he did not dare to leak it out before he left the capital.

After the Great Benevolent Man Liu heard his words, he laughed: "That's all, then we can only mistreat your cousin, quickly prepare the heptachlor and then go to my house to propose. Young Noble Mu, I am truly sorry, although your daughter is already engaged, but my family's Lan Er and Xuan'er should be even closer, and at that time, the two of us would be able to speak of great things after entering the house together."

When he said those words, both Mu Jinzhi and Yang Zixuan's face changed. Mu Jinzhi was angry, Yang Zixuan was embarrassed, and was upset, how could he forget about Liu Yulan.

"Yang Zixuan, how did you agree to my sister's request?" He did not respond to Great Benevolent Man Liu's words. Instead, he turned his head and asked Yang Zixuan a question.

When the Great Benevolent Man Liu heard him, he was so angry that he took off his shoes and hit him on the side. He scolded: "You unfilial son, if your mother found out about this in the underworld, she would definitely be angry. Your books have all been stuffed with bullshit! "You don't even understand this. Do you find your mother too peaceful in the underworld? Your mother has only one son, and our Liu family only has one son. Are you trying to make me angry?"

Yang Zixuan knew that if he said he was going to be beaten up, he wouldn't dare move from where he stood. He only said: "Uncle, you hit my body to vent your anger, don't ever hit my face!"

"You unfilial son, you pissed me off!" When the Great Benevolent Man Liu heard him, he became even angrier. He raised his shoes and was about to continue hitting them.

Mu Jinzhi called for the servants to pull the two people away and advised: "Master Liu, if you come to my house to cause trouble, with the door being there, we will not dare to let guests like you."

"I'll teach him a lesson for his mother, it's not up to you to care." Great Benevolent Man Liu was angry as well.

Mu Jinzhi laughed coldly: "He is sincerely asking for marriage, and should not have let the women beside him enter, on the basis of his white hair, he did not obstruct my sister, furthermore, you beating up my brother-in-law, I do not care."
