"Ah Ping, find out for me who this audacious person is. I, this immortal, will definitely..."

Before Xianyun could finish speaking, Grandma Ping interrupted him helplessly:
jiu wu ling yi ba ling jiu ling jiu
"Alright, Xianyun, it's not the child's fault. Why are you in such a hurry? I'm in Liyue Harbor. I can't just stand by and watch Shenhe get fooled."
Xianyun asked, "Who could it be? And who could possibly earn your approval?"
Grandma Ping glanced at Jiang Ning, who was pretending to be dead, and said:
"Isn't this being carried on your apprentice's shoulders?"
"Carry it on your shoulder... huh?"
Xianyun made a duck-like sound.
Then came disbelief; she felt as if something was blocking her throat, and she could barely speak.
After a long while, he managed to squeeze out a few words:
"Shen He, Jiang Ning...you..."
Shen He quickly said, "Master, actually I forced Junior Brother, there was nothing between us..."
Xianyun burst out laughing: "Well done!"
"Ok?"
This left not only Jiang Ning and Shen He bewildered, but also Zhong Li, Xiao, and Granny Ping.
They were all prepared, they held back the idle clouds, and then ignored all advice about what children and grandchildren have their own blessings to offer.
As it turns out, Xianyun seems quite happy?
what's the situation?
With a broad smile, Xianyun patted Shenhe on the shoulder and said:
"Well done, Shen He. I haven't taught you for nothing. You've already learned the principle of keeping the good stuff in the family. Jiang Ning is able to suppress your destiny, and I've always wanted to teach you how to seize the opportunity."
"At the time, I was thinking, since you're so dull, if it really doesn't work out, I'll just let Gan Yu take over..."
"True Lord!" Gan Yu's eyes widened in disbelief.
He was overjoyed. "Great! The True Lord doesn't object!"
Grandma Ping fell silent. Actually, as Yan Fei's guardian...
She was happy for Shen He and Jiang Ning to get together, but her idea was to wait until Jiang Ning came of age. However, she couldn't resist for even a few months and accidentally let Shen He cook Jiang Ning.
Grandma Ping had no choice but to cover for them and say a few words to Yan Fei.
Otherwise, Yan Fei's strict adherence to the law would definitely cause chaos.
So, it seems that this really comes down to this: Like father, like son… Oh, Xianyun, you really are…
As for Zhongli, he fell into deep thought.
What kind of situation hasn't he seen over the years? Zhongli really hasn't seen this kind of situation before.
However, Zhongli was quite pleased to see this. The more ties Jiang Ning had with Liyue, the more secure his position as the Geo Archon would be, and the stronger his sense of belonging to Liyue would be.
Xiangling and Hutao are very familiar with Yanfei and Yaoyao.
Xiangling covered Yaoyao's ears. "No, children shouldn't listen to this."
Hu Tao covered Yan Fei's mouth and locked her up in a pincer movement.
Otherwise, Yan Fei would have to start another very vivid legal education lesson.
"So, Master agrees?"
Shen He's expression was calm, but deep in his eyes, he could not hide his joy.
"Well, I have no reason to disagree. I just hope you two will get along well in the future..."
Jiang Ning finally stopped pretending to be dead: "Thank you, Master."
"Thank you, Master," Shen He quickly replied.
Gan Yu stepped forward and sincerely said, "Congratulations, junior brother and sister."
Everyone offered their congratulations, and Hu Tao suddenly said, "When are you having your banquet? I want to sit at the children's table."
"Ah, this..." Jiang Ning was speechless.
Hu Tao was seriously considering this. "I was thinking of having Jiang Ning marry into the family, so that I wouldn't pursue the matter of him stealing the secret techniques of the Hall of Rebirth, the Soul-Soothing Secret Method."
But now it seems impossible, so I, the head of this hall, have no choice but to marry him.
As for Shen He cutting in line... it's nothing, just a small matter.
Moreover, although I'm very unhappy, Shen He still has enough resources. If all else fails, I can have Shen He feed the children I have with Jiang Ning in the future; at least they won't starve...
To convince herself, Hu Tao even went so far as to criticize herself.
Xianyun said, "Whether or not we hold a banquet is another matter. But Ganyu, you're always working. You've already reached the limit of promotion and salary increase. I don't know what you're busy with every day. Come back and visit more often when you have time."
"Besides, you've been single for so many years, haven't you found any promising young men you like? Your mother knew your father when she was only five hundred years old."
“You’re not getting any younger now, you’re several times older than your mother was back then, hurry up and bring one back so we can give him our opinion.”
"True Lord!" Gan Yu blushed instantly.
Is this what ordinary people call the traditional activity during the Lantern Festival: pressuring people to get married?
Grandma Ping, who was standing to the side, said, "Xianyun, you're really worrying unnecessarily. If Ganyu finds someone suitable, I'll definitely know."
"Furthermore, according to you, if I were to oversee the process, what kind of requirements could you make? Tell me, and I'll keep an eye out for you."
Grandma Ping knew that her friend was arrogant and conceited, so she could guess a lot about the requirements. In addition, based on some questions Gan Yu had asked her before, as well as her own speculations, she was now intentionally trying to stir up trouble for certain people.
After pondering for a moment, Xianyun said, "At least she should be a long-lived species. If she is short-lived, I don't want to see Ganyu's mother and father, and the way her mother was depressed back then."
"Furthermore, he must at least have some ability and status. As for other things, a dignified appearance goes without saying, but he must be good to Gan Yu."
Grandma Ping said, "Your request is indeed quite difficult. It's like asking for an immortal, or someone who can embark on the path to immortality, and who is good-looking, has potential, and has a high status..."
"To be honest, over the years, most of the remaining old friends are Gan Yu's seniors and elders, peers of the opposite sex, or disciples of immortals. Only your family's Jiang Ning is the only one left."
Grandma Ping's suggestion made Xianyun's eyes light up:
"Yes, isn't Jiang Ning a perfect candidate?"
She is good-looking and has a good background. She will definitely embark on the path of immortality in the future. As for her status... after she succeeds to the throne, her status can be said to be the highest in Liyue Harbor.
Thinking about it that way, she really is a great candidate.
As for having three wives and four concubines, that's not a big deal at all. So many big merchants in Liyue do it. Is our Jiang Ning inferior to those ordinary people?
Xianyun thought it over and over and saw a good opportunity, so he looked at Gan Yu with shining eyes and said, "Gan Yu, what do you say? If you agree, I will betroth Shen He and you to Jiang Ning together."
"Aba Aba..."
Gan Yu transformed into a Qilin-brand steam engine, speechless.
Shen He replied earnestly, "I have no objection."
"Where is Jiang Ning?"
Xianyun said.
Jiang Ning ignored the teasing looks from Xiangling and the others, and Yan Fei's unconvinced expression, and said:
"If my senior sister agrees, I have no objection."
He looked like he had gotten a good deal but was still acting innocent.
"Then it's settled. Gan Yu is probably just shy. If she doesn't say anything, you can take it as her consent. Today is truly a day of double celebration, so we should have a few more drinks."
Xianyun laughed happily; after so many years, she finally felt a sense of happiness and contentment.
Yanfei said, "Wait a minute, doesn't this violate the laws of Liyue?"
Zhongli said, "From a general rational point of view, this does not constitute a violation of the law. First of all, Jiang Ning did it voluntarily, so it is not against his will. Secondly, in Liyue, engagement or even betrothal from childhood is not considered a violation of the law."
"As long as you didn't register at Yuehaiting when you were a minor, then it doesn't count..."
"As for the subsequent registration... well, after the Lantern Festival, that won't be considered a violation of the law."
Granny Ping glanced at Zhongli. This Emperor is truly going to great lengths for his successor...
They are exploiting loopholes in their own country's laws.
Yan Fei frowned: "No, when I get back I need to talk to Ke Qing and Ning Guang about filling in the gaps in the laws in this area!"
Xianyun and the others did not object, since they knew Jiang Ning would be out of control by then.
Seeing that Gan Yu was still stuck, Xian Yun said:
"Shen He, take your senior sister, who will be your sister in the future, to rest. It seems that Gan Yu is too happy and needs to calm down."
Shen He said earnestly, "I'll go in first, I'm the older sister..."
"Huh? Never mind, you can decide these things yourselves..." Xianyun was taken aback, then chuckled and shook his head.
Hmph, little Gan Yu, keep hiding! Do you really think I can't sense the aura of the talismans on your body?
This is all because Jiang Ning is in such an awkward period, why are you still hiding it?
107. Idle Clouds Enter Liyue
Apart from Zhongli and Xiao, everyone else stayed overnight at Xianyun's cave.
