Sun Siwen was actually quite happy.
Although the job was indeed a bit tiring, Prefect Cui could be considered a grandmaster of the Confucian school in this world, and he had a lot of experience in the officialdom. Working and learning under such a great man, Sun Siwen learned a lot.
What’s more, Prefect Cui appreciated Sun Siwen, often giving guidance on work and knowledge, which benefited Sun Siwen greatly.
Moreover, Prefect Cui’s daughter, Miss Wenxiu, was a gentle and virtuous woman.
From time to time, she would come to visit and inquire, and every time Sun Siwen heard Wenxiu’s melodious voice, it would refresh his soul like rain and eliminate all his fatigue.
As time went by, they spent more time together, and a crazy thought began to form in his mind: he wanted to be with Miss Wenxiu forever.
But Sun Siwen was a man who strictly adhered to propriety, so every time this thought arose, he would chant “do not entertain disrespectful thoughts” in his heart, not daring to think any further.
However, this made him act somewhat restrained in front of Wenxiu, often being teased as a bookworm.
At this, Sun Siwen could only blush and stammer, unable to respond. What could he say?
Should he say “I like you, and I want to be with you forever”?
Such bold words would still be considered shocking even in the open-minded
Da Yue.
Sun Siwen, who had been deeply influenced by traditional etiquette, would definitely not say, nor dare to say such words.
But romantic feelings are something that the more you try to suppress and stifle, the more they drive you mad.
Lu Yuan noticed that Sun Siwen seemed a bit off during several meetings with his good friend. But when he asked Sun Siwen what was wrong, Sun Siwen acted like a closed-mouthed bottle, blushing and not saying anything.
After carefully observing a few times, Lu Yuan suddenly thought of something, smiled mysteriously, and stopped asking.
This state lasted for two months, until the fifteenth day of the eighth month, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, when Sun Siwen suddenly came to him.
In the back garden.
Lu Yuan stood gazing at the equally bright and round moon in the sky, reminiscing about his past life before crossing over, feeling somewhat melancholy.
At that moment, he sensed movement behind him, felt the familiar presence, and immediately turned around, smilingly asking, “Brother Sun, did you come to accompany me for this festival when you saw how lonely I was?
Behind him, Sun Siwen quickly walked over, his face showing some excitement.
“Brother Lu… Brother Lu, let me tell you…
His breath slightly labored, his face flushed with excitement, and his eyes full of hope and happiness, it was clear that something great had happened.
“Ah, let me guess.”
Lu Yuan interrupted Sun Siwen, who had just recovered and wanted to continue speaking, and said with a smile, “Did Miss Cui choose you? And is she going to marry you, the wooden block?”
Lu Yuan looked at Sun Siwen’s still astonished expression and couldn’t help but chuckle, “Senior Brother, have you forgotten? The night we first arrived in Fu City, I told you something after we left the Prefect’s residence.”
“After we left? What did you say?” Sun Siwen recalled, “Peach blossom luck, right, peach blossom luck. How did you know about the events that happened a few months later, Brother Lu?”
At this point, he paused, finally realizing, “So it’s actually been a few months since Prefect Cui intended to take me as his son-in-law?”
“What else?” , Lu Yuan looked at him with amusement, “I really don’t know what Lord Cui saw in you, such a dull person. And Miss Wenxiu, too, such a heavenly immortal, marrying this stupid donkey of yours.” As for his initial rejection, our Lu was still somewhat upset.
“Hehe…hehe…”
Regarding his good friend’s sarcastic comments, Sun Siwen just grinned foolishly, not objecting, appearing to be quite happy.
Seeing this, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but feel even angrier.
After the laughter and joy subsided, Sun Siwen told Lu Yuan about his experiences today.
Today, after he and Cui Changqing finished their official duties and were about to leave as usual, they were stopped by their superior, who then took Sun Siwen to the backyard for dinner.
This kind of thing had happened many times over the past few months, and Sun Siwen was used to it.
But today was special because Miss Wenxiu was not present, which left him somewhat disappointed.
He had been looking forward to seeing Miss Wenxiu again, but it didn’t work out.
However, the disappointment didn’t last long, as a huge surprise soon arrived.
“Lord Cui first asked about my marriage situation, and then suddenly mentioned that Wenxiu had not been betrothed to anyone yet, asking me if I was interested in her…”
At this point, Sun Siwen’s face reddened slightly, as if recalling some embarrassing memories, and he skipped over it, then excitedly continued, “Of course, I had no objections. It’s my honor to marry Miss Wenxiu.
Then Lord Cui laughed loudly, and Lady Cui was delighted.
We drank some wine, and then Lord Cui and his family suggested setting a wedding date, hoping that Miss Wenxiu and I could get married soon.” fr(e)ewebn(o)vel
Upon saying this, Sun Siwen looked at Lu Yuan, “Brother Lu, I don’t have any close relatives or elders. You are the only good friend I have in this lifetime, so I came to ask you to act as my matchmaker.
Then I hope you can help me propose marriage to the Cui family, finalize our birthdates and arrange the marriage contract, and act as my matchmaker. I wonder if Brother Lu would be willing?”
To be a matchmaker?
Lu Yuan was slightly taken aback by this request, but seeing the hopeful look in Sun Siwen’s eyes, he immediately replied with a smile, “What’s there to be willing or unwilling? You are my good friend, and now you’re facing a major life event. I’ll naturally help if I can.
When is the day of the proposal?
Miss Wenxiu is a good girl and also a lady of high status. We need to plan and prepare carefully for the marriage proposal and not let her family feel slighted.
As for the wedding, since we’re going to have it, it needs to be grand. How can my good friend’s wedding be shabby! I want everyone in Fu City to join in our blessings and celebrations.”
The 5,000 silver tales Sun Siwen had given him last time were still unused. Lu Yuan planned to add his own 5,000 silver tales, making a total of 10,000 silver tales, to hold a lavish wedding.
In this remote city, such a large sum of money was more than enough to celebrate the entire city.
“Thank you, Brother Lu.”
Sun Siwen was moved by Lu Yuan’s concern, and then they began to discuss the details of the wedding proposal and the wedding arrangements together.
Looking at his friend’s enthusiastic manner, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but feel emotional.
The two had known each other for more than ten years, and now, his good friend was finally getting married.
On the other hand, he was still single.
He enjoyed the benefits of longevity, but at the same time missed out on the beauty of ordinary people’s lives. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸𝘦𝒷𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝘮
Encountering and knowing one another, committing their hearts to each other, supporting each other, and growing old together.
“It’s something to be envied.”
For a moment, there was a flicker of doubt in Lu Yuan’s eyes, but in the end, he remained firm.
The feelings between men and women were ultimately not as wonderful as longevity.
He was a determined seeker of the Immortal Path..
