Chapter 343 One step closer to the goal!
Ever since Han Shucui accidentally encountered the conflict between Shen Boren and his daughter that day, although she felt a little regretful that she should not have alienated Lin Jiaran from her own son, she was determined in her next plan, which was to form a relative with the new force.
Looking at the upper class circle, there is really no woman that she particularly likes or thinks is particularly worthy of her family, Jingcheng. The daughter-in-law she wants does not have to be very smart or very beautiful. The key is that she must be helpful to their family. Except for the daughter of the president of Ancheng Chamber of Commerce and the CEO of a new force, there is really no other candidate for a daughter-in-law of the right age in Ancheng.
Although the boss of the new force wanted to become a relative of the Lu family, he only had one daughter after all, so he had to obey his daughter's thoughts. Chu Nanxin was unwilling to marry Lu Jingcheng, and the boss of the new force, Chu Xiong, was reluctant to agree to the marriage.
As the top pillar among the wealthy ladies, Han Shucui naturally knew all the gossip. When communicating with the ladies, she talked to Mrs. Chu about asking Chu Nanxin to visit the Lu family. Mrs. Chu naturally would not refuse Han Shucui's invitation to the Lu family.
The Lu family's luxurious life is incomparable to that of ordinary wealthy families. No matter how wealthy the Chu family is, it cannot compare with the Lu family. This is what Han Shucui has decided. She invites Chu Nanxin to the Lu family because she truly regards Chu Nanxin as her daughter-in-law. The Chu family must give her this face. Han Shucui believes in her heart that Chu Nanxin will be tempted after seeing the real life of the Lu family!
Under Han Shucui's special arrangement, the Lu family's driver went to the Chu family in person to pick up Chu Nanxin.
The car parked steadily in the Lu family's spacious parking lot, and the person sitting in the passenger seat got out and opened the door for Chu Nanxin personally.
"Miss Chu, we're here!"
Chu Nanxin smiled and nodded politely, got out of the car, stopped to look at the luxurious manor in front of her. She had heard about the Lu family's luxurious manor a long time ago. The Gothic architectural style on the outside showed the luxury and grandeur of the mansion, and also showed that the owner of the mansion had a high status.
Han Shucui naturally saw Chu Nanxin arriving at the Lu family from inside the house. As the highest-ranking hostess of the Lu family and the future mother-in-law, she would not condescend to go out and greet Chu Nanxin in person. Although she valued Chu Nanxin, she still had to put on the proper airs.
When Chu Nanxin was led into the Lu family by a special person, Lu Jingchuan came back in his flashy sports car. When Chu Nanxin saw the car coming, she stopped and watched.
The servant beside her couldn't help but remind her, "It's cold outside, Miss Chu should go inside first!"
At this time, Lu Jingchuan got out of the car. Chu Nanxin also saw Lu Jingchuan's face. The expectation in her heart disappeared, so she followed the servant into the house.
Entering the room through the spacious door, ten maids in uniform standing in two rows lined up to welcome her, "Welcome Miss Chu!"
Chu Nanxin bowed politely in response.
"Miss Chu, you are an honored guest of the Lu family. These etiquettes are what they should follow. After you get married to the Third Young Master, they will be your servants!" The servant standing next to Chu Nanxin was different from the servants in line. She had an extra bow tie, proving that her status was higher.
Outside the house, I saw someone taking care of the plants in the garden. Now there are so many people in the house. I don’t know how many servants the Lu family has. No wonder so many people want to marry into the Lu family.
Han Shucui walked down the duplex stairs wearing simple yet luxurious clothes.
"Second Madam!" Hearing Han Shucui coming downstairs, the servants greeted Han Shucui one after another.
"Nanxin, when did you arrive?" Han Shucui's face immediately became friendly and she quickened her pace as she walked downstairs, pulling Chu Nanxin aside to greet her.
"Auntie Han, I just arrived!"
"What's going on? Why didn't you inform me when Nanxin arrived?" Han Shucui's face turned serious again and she scolded the servants. The servants lowered their heads and no one dared to respond. Chu Nanxin stood there looking a little embarrassed.
"Why are there so many people at home today?" Lu Jingchuan asked in doubt when he walked into the house and saw that there were several more servants at home than usual.
On weekdays, the Lu family has at most three or four servants responsible for cleaning and cooking. During major holidays when there are many people at home, the Lu family usually hires professional chefs to cook. Today, Han Shucui was just putting on a show. The old man usually doesn't like extravagance, and Han Shucui had already told the old man today that in order for Jingcheng to get married smoothly, the old man just let Han Shucui make the arrangements.
"Second Young Master!"
"Jingchuan is back!" Han Shucui also greeted Lu Jingchuan enthusiastically.
Lu Jingchuan glanced at Chu Nanxin, recognized her identity, but did not say hello. Although he knew Chu Nanxin, they were not familiar enough to say hello when they met.
"I'm just coming back to get something and then I'll leave. What are you planning to do, Second Aunt?"
"This is President Chu's daughter, she's here as a guest!"
Han Shucui led Chu Nanxin towards the living room, and Lu Jingchuan went upstairs. By then, Lu Jingcheng also arrived on time following Han Shucui's order.
When Lu Jingcheng arrived, Han Shucui naturally found a chance to leave, giving the two of them a chance to chat alone.
"Hello, I'm Lu Jingcheng!" Lu Jingcheng Bingbing politely introduced herself to Lu Jingcheng.
"Hello, Chu Nanxin!"
This was the first time she met Lu Jingcheng. She had heard of Lu Jingcheng, the youngest of the Lu family. She had never met him in any electronic publication or in real life. The most famous person in the Lu family was the eldest grandson Lu Jingshen, who had enjoyed a few years of prosperity and was quite famous. Lu Jingchuan was famous for his romantic nature in the upper class. Seeing was believing. Lu Jingcheng's appearance was not inferior to Lu Jingshen, but his temperament was slightly inferior. He gave people a feeling of gentleness from the heart, while Lu Jingshen gave people the feeling of extraordinary temperament, and there was an invisible sense of irresistible pressure.
"Miss Chu, Third Young Master, this is the afternoon tea snack that the Second Madam specially prepared for you two!" said the servant as he brought the afternoon tea snacks.
"Miss Chu, don't be restrained, just treat it as your own home!"
The two sat next to each other.
"Is there no one else in the Lu family now?" Chu Nanxin spoke first.
Isn’t Lin Jiaran the eldest lady of the Lu family? Why didn’t we see or hear any news about her when she came to the Lu family?
"Today is a workday. Apart from my mom and my grandfather, everyone else is busy at home. Family days are usually more lively. Every Sunday is the Lu family's family day."
“Is Family Day mandatory for everyone?”
"Yes, this is the Lu family's rule. You must attend the Family Day in the last week of every month, but you don't have to attend at other times."
"Ms. Chu also knows the purpose of our meeting here. If you want to marry me, you can choose to live in the old Lu family house, or you can choose to move out and live in a new house. If you don't like to participate in Family Day, you don't have to participate."
"What does this mean, Mr. Lu?"
"My meaning is very simple. I have no complaints about Miss Chu's conditions in every aspect. If Miss Chu has no objection, we can get married!"
"I want to get engaged first, and then we can get to know each other slowly. I don't want to get married for now. After all, this is our first meeting. What do you think, Mr. Lu?"
"I have no opinion!"
When the two were talking, Han Shucui did not miss any details, and naturally did not miss any of their conversation. As long as Chu Nanxin agreed to try to understand engagement with her son, she would be one step closer to her goal and get the great-grandson's will and property left by the old man as soon as possible!
