After a master of metaphysics severed ties with his family, the whole family was filled with regret!

Chapter 90 The dowry from the second and third senior brothers filled the courtyard.

Despite her feelings, Luo Chujiu already knew about Luo Jiangshi and Luo Wanping's ways, so she didn't have any expectations of them.

However, Luo Chentian was different. Even though he was not valued in the Luo family, he was still the only male heir of the family and had been treated to a life of luxury for many years. He also respected Luo Wanping and Luo Jiangshi.

However, with Aunt Liu's death, Luo Chentian severed the only kinship he had with them. Therefore, he would no longer cherish that kinship that was never truly his.

Luo Chujiu recalled the fate she had initially predicted for Luo Wanping and Luo Jiangshi. They were destined to have no children, and she had already severed ties with them. So, there was only one left, Luo Chentian, and this matter was an opportunity.

Luo Chujiu returned to the Imperial Preceptor's residence late at night but couldn't sleep, so she simply sat on the bed and meditated.

He sat there until dawn.

When Fei Yun entered the house in the morning and saw Luo Chujiu sitting on the bed, dressed neatly, she was also surprised.

"Did you meditate all night, Miss?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Chujiu opened her eyes, nodded slowly, and then closed them again.

Seeing this, Fei Yun knew that Luo Chu Jiu did not want to be disturbed, so she quietly left the room.

Feiyun, Qingying, and Caizhao chatted outside, waiting for Luo Chujiu to come out of the house on her own or call out to them to serve her.

"I wonder when Granny Yun will be back. She's been away visiting her family for so long." Qingying sighed, missing Granny Yun a little.

"It hasn't been long, only three to five days. But a round trip would take at least half a month." Fei Yun calculated the time and realized that Granny Yun hadn't been gone for too long.

"Only three or five days? I thought Granny Yun had been gone for ten days," Cai Zhao said in surprise.

It's only been three or five days, but it feels like I've been gone for a long time!

"By the way, have the things Miss asked me to prepare the other day been ready?" Fei Yun asked, looking at the two of them again.

"It's all ready, Sister Feiyun. We dare not neglect the things Miss instructed us to do," Qingying replied.

Feiyun nodded in satisfaction. It seemed that Qingying and Caizhao took their young lady's words to heart.

"Is Xiao Jiu still asleep?"

Nalan Qingyin was off work today and did not attend the morning court session, so she came to find Luo Chujiu.

When they arrived at her courtyard, they saw three maids chatting in the yard.

"Reporting to the Imperial Preceptor, the young lady is meditating inside the room, and this servant dares not disturb her."

Hearing that Luo Chujiu was meditating, Nalan Qingyin understood and waited outside with her.

A short while later, Ao Yuan and Fu Heng arrived together, saying they were there to deliver a dowry to Luo Chujiu.

When they were told that Luo Chujiu was still meditating, they waited in the courtyard with Nalan Qingyin.

Luo Chujiu didn't open the door until it was almost lunchtime.

"Hey, what brings all my senior brothers here? Why didn't you call me?"

"I know you're meditating, so I didn't want to disturb you. But now that you're out, hurry up and check on the dowry your senior brothers gave you; it's all outside!"

Fu Heng looked at Luo Chujiu with a smile and said.

Luo Chujiu's eyes lit up when the topic of dowry came up.

Then Ao Yuan and Fu Heng immediately had all the dowry that was parked outside brought in.

Then Luo Chujiu saw loads of dowry being carried into her courtyard one after another.

Fuheng and Aoyuan only stopped when the wooden crates filled the entire courtyard. "Third Senior Brother, how come there are so many? My courtyard can't hold them all!"

Luo Chujiu was extremely shocked.

“When Junior Sister gets married, Third Senior Brother has to make a good impression on you. Otherwise, what’s the point of being the richest man in Nanzhao Kingdom? Only if your dowry is big enough will others not dare to look down on you,” Fu Heng said matter-of-factly.

"Thank you, Third Senior Brother~~"

Luo Chujiu was very grateful to Fu Heng for considering these things for her.

"What, you only thank your third senior brother, but not your second senior brother?" Ao Yuan pretended to be angry and looked at Luo Chujiu.

"No, no, thank you too, Second Senior Brother. You gave me so many gifts, I'm very grateful!"

Luo Chujiu has once again mastered the art of "One Hundred Ways to Deceive Your Senior Brothers".

Clearly, Ao Yuan and Fu Heng were both very receptive to Luo Chujiu's charms, feeling completely at ease and smiling broadly.

Nalan Qingyin, on the other hand, was already immune to Luo Chujiu's sweet words. She watched helplessly as her second and third senior brothers were completely charmed by their junior sister's sweet talk.

To thank her second and third senior brothers for bringing her dowry, Luo Chujiu specially cooked a meal for them herself.

Both Ao Yuan and Fu Heng expressed their anticipation.

While Luo Chujiu was cooking, Feiyun and the others watched from the side, worried that Luo Chujiu wouldn't be able to cook and might even burn down the kitchen.

However, it turns out that Luo Chujiu does indeed know how to cook, and her cooking skills are quite good.

In half an hour, they prepared six or seven dishes, and then the four of them sat down to eat together and even drank together.

Luo Chujiu has a low alcohol tolerance, but she's the kind of person who's bad at drinking but still likes to drink.

The senior brothers figured that since Luo Chujiu was at the Imperial Preceptor's residence and wasn't going anywhere else, they let her drink a few cups of wine.

But after only a few drinks, Luo Chujiu began to slump onto the table and doze off.

After seeing this, Nalan Qingyin had Feiyun and the others help Luo Chujiu back to her room to rest. The group continued drinking and reminiscing, lamenting the passage of time. In the blink of an eye, their little junior sister was about to get married, and they were truly reluctant to part with her.

After Feiyun and Qingying helped Luo Chujiu into the room, they put her on the bed to rest, and then they went out to wait.

However, when Fei Yun went into the room again to check on Luo Chu Jiu, the room was empty!
Feiyun immediately went to find Nalan Qingyin.

"Oh no, Imperial Advisor! Miss! Miss has disappeared!"

Feiyun hurriedly went to the front hall and told Nalan Qingyin that Luo Chujiu had disappeared.

When Nalan Qingyin, Ao Yuan, and Fu Heng heard Fei Yun's words, they immediately put down their wine cups and stood up together!
"What happened? Wasn't she resting in her room? How could she be gone?" Nalan Qingyin asked coldly.

"Reporting to the Imperial Preceptor, after we helped Miss back to her room, we waited outside. We didn't see her come out of the room. When we went to check on her, she was gone. Only the window was open. It seems she left through the window, avoiding our sight."

Feiyun explained anxiously, eager to know where Luo Chujiu had gone.

Nalan Qingyin didn't waste any words and directly used the Liuren divination method to calculate Luo Chujiu's current location.

If he remembered correctly, there was only one person in that spot!
Why is Junior Sister going to find Fifth Junior Brother again?!
Moreover, this time, it was definitely the junior sister who went on her own initiative, rather than the fifth junior brother coming to find her.

Nalan Qingyin looked at him with a disappointed expression, which piqued the curiosity of Ao Yuan and Fu Heng.

"So, Fourth Junior Brother, where exactly is Junior Sister now?"
