Shen Yuange sat in the main seat, Chen Luo sat aside, and Chen Mumu insisted on sitting close to him. She knew that Chen Luo was away from home to practice Taoism, so she had a lot of things to ask Chen Luo, but now her parents are on the side, so it is difficult to speak.

The second wife sat opposite them with Chen Ci, her face filled with joy, and she kept watching Chen Luo.

Chen Luo rarely saw Er Niang's smile on her face so sincerely, and she always felt something was wrong.

"Luo'er, it's a bit strange. I just sent a letter to Jianye half a month ago. No matter how fast you are, you should have just received the letter. Why did you come back today?" Shen Yuange asked.

"The child set out to leave Jianye a month ago and did not receive a letter from his father." Chen Luo said in surprise.

"So you haven't received the letter, that's no wonder." Shen Yuange smiled.

"My father suddenly sent a letter to the child, but what urgent matters are there at home?" Chen Luo frowned slightly and asked.

"Brother Luo, it's not that there is something urgent, but that there is a marriage." Before Shen Yuange could speak, Erniang said first.

When he spoke, his eyebrows and eyes flew, and he seemed very happy.

Chen Luo felt even more confused when he heard this and asked, "What kind of marriage? Chen Ci and Mu Mu are still young, so they won't have to get married now, right?"

"It's not their marriage, it's yours." Er Niang raised her hand and pointed Shen Luo and said.

"My marriage? Second mother, don't joke. When I went to the mountain to practice Taoism, where did the marriage come from?" Chen Luo waved his hand.

"Luo'er, your second mother is not joking. It's indeed your marriage, and she is a baby marriage that she has been booked since childhood. It's just that you were disturbed by the yin energy before and your life is worrying. I never thought of mentioning this matter to you." Shen Yuange also said.

"Father, what's going on?" Chen Luo frowned.

"Your fiancée is named Nie Caizhu. She is the daughter of a distant aunt. She is two years younger than you. She is considered to be your cousin. Although your aunt is not your mother's biological sister, the relationship between them is very good. The marriage was agreed upon by them."

"Father, since we still have such a distant relative, why have we never seen each other since we were young?" Chen Luo frowned slightly and asked.

He was unable to react to this sudden marriage for a moment, but he subconsciously resisted it.

"This is a long story. Your cousin's family moved to Yunzhou many years ago and ran a restaurant and pawnshop business there. It is said that they had already established themselves and their family was quite rich. But later, after your mother died of illness, her cousin's mother also passed away, and our two families almost cut off contact." Shen Yuange said slowly.

"Since you have broken off contact, why do you suddenly mention this marriage?" Chen Luo asked again.

"After the two families broke off contact, neither party mentioned the fulfillment of the contract again, so I just thought it was not true. But half a month ago, your cousin suddenly traveled thousands of miles to find him from Yunzhou." Shen Yuange paused and said.

"Is it the Nie family who took the initiative to fulfill the contract?" Chen Luo said a little surprised.

"It's just that the matter is strange. It's not the head and elder of the Nie family, but your cousin, who came to us with a personal maid." A strange look appeared on Shen Yuange's face and said.

"There is such a thing? My father asked why Miss Nie came here alone?" Chen Luo's doubts became deeper and frowned.

"Brother Luo, you don't have to worry about anything else. In short, we can't suffer any loss when we have an engagement. Besides, you didn't see the lady of the Nie family. Her appearance is so difficult to find in heaven and on earth that she is really a fairy descending to earth." Er Niang suddenly spoke, and her words were full of praise.

"Brother, Sister Caizhu is really beautiful, gentle, and treats Mu Mu. It would be great if she could be Mu Mu's sister-in-law." Chen Mu Mu said with curved eyes and said with a helping voice.

"I heard that the Nie family only has Caizhu, one only daughter, so it must be offered to you in front of the pearl in your hand? If Brother Luo married her, it would be a good thing that would be a sure thing to make a profit." Before Chen Luo could speak, Er Niang added with a smile.

"Ahem"

Shen Yuange, who was beside him, coughed softly before she stopped talking and carefully looked up and down.

Chen Luo heard this and pondered without saying a word. After a while, he asked, "Since this Miss Nie is in the mansion, why don't you see anyone?"

"Sister Caizhu went to Yuanzhu Temple to incense early in the morning and might not come back at noon." Chen Mumu replied immediately.

Chen Luo nodded, but he still did not express his opinion on the engagement.

Although he had no prejudice to the sudden appearance of his fiancée, he felt a little uncomfortable after all when he heard Er Nie's words that seemed to ask him to win over the dragon and take advantage of the Nie family, and he became a little disgusted with this marriage.

Not to mention, now he has entered the path of immortal cultivation and is really not interested in the love between children in the secular world.

At this moment, a noise suddenly came from outside the hall. Shen Yuange was about to scold him when he saw a servant from the Shen family running in panic, and one of them tripped on the ground without paying attention.

"Master, no...no, something happened..." The man shouted hurriedly without waiting to get up.

When everyone in the hall heard this, their expressions changed one after another.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Chen Luo walked up, helped him up, and asked.

The servant stared at the sunken face for a while before recognizing it, and quickly replied: "Young Master, there is a chaos outside the city. The people who went to Yuanzhu Temple to incense were attacked by bandits. Miss Nie got separated..."

"What?" Shen Yuange's expression suddenly changed when he heard this.

"Oh, what are you waiting for? Go and report to the official immediately." Er Niang stood up with a ugly expression and said in a panic.

"Someone has reported to the officials, and the government office has sent people to arrest the bandits, and they have also asked for support from the nearby garrison troops. However, we can't find Miss Nie..." The servant said almost cryingly.

"Call everyone in the mansion and go out of the city to find it immediately!" Shen Yuange's face darkened and he shouted loudly.

"No need, I'll go and see. Where are you leaving? What clothes did Miss Nie wear today? Tell me carefully." Chen Luo frowned and said.

When the servant heard this, he finally calmed down and said to Chen Luo one by one.

"Father, stay at your house for a while, I'll go and have a look." After that, Chen Luo walked out of the hall.

"Why don't you go and prepare a horse?" Shen Yuange stared at the servant and scolded angrily.
