Chapter 244: Chapter 124: Spiritual Field, Shop, Cave Dwelling!_1
Three days later.
Lu Family Ancestor led a group of Lu Family cultivators back to Qingzhu Mountain.
Signifying that the matter in Red Leaf Valley had come to an end.
Lu Miaohuan and her sisters returned along with Lu Yuanding.
“Sister, do you think Lu Changsheng will really come to propose?”
After returning home, Lu Miaohuan shyly asked her sister Lu Miaoge.
These past few days, she had constantly been pondering the words Lu Changsheng said before.
Wondering if Lu Changsheng’s talk of proposing was real or just a joke.
It had left her feeling anxious these past days.
“As long as you nod to show your willingness, maybe Lu Changsheng will come to propose today,”
Lu Miaoge, watching her sister’s shy appearance, smiled gently and said softly.
Knowing that her sister had deep feelings for Lu Changsheng.
If it weren’t for the restraint and shyness of being a woman, she would have probably agreed already.
Thinking this, she sighed softly in her heart.
Not just Lu Miaohuan.
She, too, felt unsettled these past days.
Lu Changsheng’s words continuously echoed in her mind.
She wondered, if Lu Changsheng really came to propose, would she agree.
After three days of deliberation, Lu Miaoge had roughly come to a conclusion.
Should it really come to that, and if Lu Changsheng indeed came to propose, she would still agree and not refuse.
But even having reached such a conclusion, she still couldn’t get over her emotional hurdle.
Unsure of how to face Lu Changsheng, how to answer his question.
“Can’t he see whether I’m willing or not? Does he still need to ask me? Could it be that I should take the initiative to speak up?”
Lu Miaohuan’s tempting red lips pursed, and she said somewhat bashfully.
She felt that such matters shouldn’t require her to take the initiative to tell Lu Changsheng that she was willing and for him to come to propose.
That would be too embarrassing!
Moreover, this is something that Lu Changsheng should take the initiative to do.
Then she herself, upon her father’s inquiry, should state that the matter of marriage is her father’s decision, and she would abide by her father’s arrangement.
“I just happen to have something to discuss with Lu Changsheng. Since that’s the case, how about I probe a little for you, drop a hint to him?”
Lu Miaoge, seeing her sister act this way, could not help but speak up.
Although she now felt a bit scared to see Lu Changsheng.
Fearing what Lu Changsheng might ask her in return.
But as the saying goes, an elder sister is akin to a mother.
For the sake of her sister’s happiness, she still chose to have a talk with Lu Changsheng.
“Mhm.”
Lu Miaohuan lightly hummed a response, her voice as faint as a mosquito’s.
If it were before, her pride would never allow her sister to take the initiative in giving hints.
She would wait for Lu Changsheng to propose of his own accord.
But having initially thought Lu Changsheng had died, she had a change of heart.
She had let go of her pride when it came to Lu Changsheng.
…
At the same time.
Lu Miaoyun was also at home pondering the matter of her husband and her cousins, Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaohuan.
Thinking of how to facilitate the marriage proposal.
After all, she could see that her husband indeed had feelings for her two cousins.
In such a situation, as a wife, it is natural to share her husband’s worries and difficulties.
Of course, she also had her own selfish reasons.
Meng Xiaochan’s appearance had inevitably made Lu Miaoyun feel a sense of crisis.
She wanted to do something for her husband.
Moreover, she hoped that after her husband married Lu Miaoge and Lu Miaohuan, he would concentrate on cultivation, focus on the Talisman Path,
and stop spending too much attention on other women.
“Although I suggested to my husband that the elder could give a marital blessing,”
“I’m certain he will not do so. He will definitely seek the consent of Sister Miaoge and Miaohuan before proposing,”
Lu Miaoyun thought to herself.
Having lived with her husband for so many years, she knew his nature well.
She knew that in such matters, he would definitely respect the other party’s wishes and seek their consent.
He would not rashly propose nor let the elder grant the marriage without the other party’s agreement.
“It’s clear that Miaohuan likes my husband, and if he proposed, she would surely agree,”
“But as for Sister Miaoge…”
Lu Miaoyun continued her contemplation.
She delved deep into thought about her cousin’s situation.
And she didn’t know how to describe the relationship between her husband and Lu Miaoge.
“I remember that Sister Miaoge used to interact with my husband not as they do now, right?”
This reflection suddenly made Lu Miaoyun feel that the relationship between Lu Miaoge and her husband had become somewhat strange.
But she couldn’t quite put her finger on what was strange.
It seemed that they were still close, yet they both appeared somewhat constrained.
Especially Lu Miaoge.
“I recall that in the past, Sister Miaoge used to treat my husband much like she did our younger brothers and sisters, very naturally,”
“But now, Sister Miaoge seems different around my husband, lacking that easy-going vibe,”
“That’s right, it’s that naturalness that’s missing. Although they seem to still be close, Miaoge hardly speaks to my husband recently, as if she is somewhat avoiding him,”
Lu Miaoyun continued to ponder, recalling the circumstances between her husband and Lu Miaoge.
“No, it’s not just when facing my husband; it seems Sister Miaoge is also a bit unnatural around me,”
“It was right after Sister Miaoge returned injured, things seemed off,”
Lu Miaoyun thought carefully, realizing that something had been amiss with Lu Miaoge for about half a year,
but she hadn’t given it much thought at the time and had not paid much attention.
Now, on reflection, she immediately sensed that there was a problem.
She felt that something must have happened between her husband and Lu Miaoge at that time, which was why Lu Miaoge was acting this way.
“During that time, Sister Miaoge had a close brush with death at the hands of a robbers cultivator, barely clinging to life, and it was my husband who rescued Sister Miaoge,”
“Something must have happened during that, and that’s why Sister Miaoge is behaving like this,”
