Chapter 1099 So That's How We Fell in Love Back Then
After Leng Rongyue uttered the words "Little Deer," she looked at the expression on Fu Mingjun's face...
Leng Rongyue was certain that she had guessed correctly!
Leng Rongyue winked mischievously and deliberately frowned, saying, "If that's really the case, then it would be wrong of my future sister-in-law!"
The deep mountains are home to tigers, black bears, and packs of wolves... danger lurks everywhere!
How could my sister-in-law force you, my brother, to go on an adventure in the mountains just because she likes some little animals?
When I meet my future sister-in-law, I'm definitely going to have a serious talk with her about it!
"Moon, you've misunderstood. This isn't your sister-in-law's fault!"
Fu Mingjun blurted out these words in his haste.
"Don't blame my sister-in-law?"
I don't blame my sister-in-law. But would you risk going into the mountains for my sister-in-law?
I never expected my future sister-in-law to be so arrogant and domineering, yet my older brother still protects her so much!
well! "
Leng Rongyue sighed and shook her head, seemingly helpless.
"Moon, you've really misunderstood. This matter is really not your sister-in-law's fault!"
Your sister-in-law had no idea I went into the mountains!
Fu Mingjun was afraid that there might be some misunderstanding between his younger sister and his future wife, so he quickly spoke up to explain.
"Oh...it turns out I misunderstood my future sister-in-law!"
"Well... what exactly happened... big brother, please tell me!"
Fu Mingjun looked helplessly at his clever little sister in front of him, but then he thought that they would be family sooner or later, and keeping it a secret would easily cause misunderstandings, so he decided to tell her!
So, Fu Mingjun recounted what happened back then.
"That was three or four years ago..."
Leng Rongyue sat up straight, perking up her ears to listen...
It turned out that in the autumn of that year, Madam Xue invited several ladies and their children to enjoy the autumn scenery at Banshan Manor. Among them was Lu Yiran, the eldest daughter of Lu Zheng, the Chancellor of the Imperial Academy.
Miss Lu Yiran is also a famous talented woman in the capital. She and Fu Mingjun, a renowned talented man in the capital, admired each other. They met again at the Half Mountain Manor that day. They were a perfect match and fell in love at first sight!
The moment Fu Mingjun saw Lu Yiran, he knew he would never forget her bright, clear eyes, as pure and innocent as a fawn's!
They say love at first sight lasts a lifetime.
Fu Mingjun felt that he had a feeling of love at first sight.
He couldn't deny the attraction he felt.
So, on that day, Fu Mingjun intentionally followed the most outstanding and beautiful figure among all the noble ladies, and followed those clear eyes like a fawn!
Fu Mingjun overheard a group of noble ladies discussing what small animals they liked.
Some said they liked kittens, some said they liked puppies, and some said they liked rabbits, but Lu Yiran said: She really wanted to have a well-behaved and lively deer, but she had never been able to have it.
For Lu Yiran's wish, Fu Mingjun packed his things and went into the mountains alone.
Following my memories from back then, it took me a little over a day to find the valley.
Coincidentally, there were indeed goats and deer drinking water there.
One of the fawns, which must have been born recently, was drinking water with its head down beside its mother.
Both fawns and wild goats are extremely alert animals.
Fu Mingjun approached silently like a raccoon dog, and only when he was sure that the pebble he threw could hit the deer did he suddenly appear and throw two pebbles.
One of the two pebbles hit the fawn, and the other hit the mother fawn.
The fawn was too young and still needed its mother, so Fu Mingjun didn't want to separate the mother and fawn.
Therefore, Fu Mingjun wanted to bring the mother deer back with him.
The wild goats and two other deer were frightened and immediately ran away, leaving only the mother deer and the fawn lying on the ground.
Fu Mingjun did not actually injure them; he only temporarily rendered the mother deer and fawn incapacitated.
Just as the mother deer and her fawn collapsed, Fu Mingjun used his lightness skill to reach them and put the rope he had prepared beforehand around their necks.
Fu Mingjun helped the mother deer and the fawn to their feet while feeding them the grass and fruit he had brought.
The mother deer and her fawn seemed to sense that Fu Mingjun meant no harm, and they obediently ate the tender grass and fruit from his hand, then followed him out of the mountains.
When Fu Mingjun led the two deer out of the mountain, Madam Xue and the other ladies and their children had already left the Half-Mountain Manor and returned to the capital.
Fu Mingjun had no choice but to bring the mother deer and the fawn back to the Duke of Anguo's mansion in the capital.
After returning to the capital, Fu Mingjun mustered up his courage and went to his mother, explaining that he had someone he loved and asking her to help him find a wife.
Coincidentally, both Madam Xue and Madam Huo Chanyu were very fond of Lu Yiran, the eldest daughter of Lu Zheng, the Chancellor of the Imperial Academy.
When Fu Mingjun also took a liking to the girl he had his eye on, what else was there to say?
Therefore, Madam Xue and Madam Huo Chanyu first took the opportunity to test the waters.
Lu Zheng, the Chancellor of the Imperial Academy, held the Duke of Anguo's mansion in high regard and respected it, especially its family tradition, which was praised by many prominent families in the capital.
Fu Mingjun's talent and character are impeccable.
The marriage was a perfect match, and both parties were delighted.
On the very day the engagement was finalized, the Duke of Anguo's mansion not only sent the engagement gifts, but also two deer, one large and one small.
If it weren't for the fact that Lu Zheng's father, Lu Yiran's grandfather, was seriously ill and suddenly passed away before their wedding, forcing Lu Yiran to observe mourning for her grandfather, Fu Mingjun would have married Lu Yiran long ago!
"So that's how it is!"
After listening, Leng Rongyue nodded heavily.
