Chapter 406 (1/2)

After hearing Shen Ruiling's words, Du Wenfu was stunned, and his face immediately showed an ugly look.

……

The reason why he wants to marry Shen again is not only to find a reliable ally for the Du family, but also to help his great granddaughter find a place to rely on.

Indeed, it is not so easy for a weak woman to inherit the huge foundation of the Du family.

We not only need to face the difficulties of those collateral elders in the clan, but also beware of the attacks of ”jackals, tigers and leopards” outside.

So Du Wenfu wanted to help his great granddaughter find someone to rely on in the future while he was still alive, and also help the family find a reliable ally.

There is also a reason why Du Wenfu will fall in love with Shen Ruiling.

For one thing, he is interested in the strength of the Shen family behind Shen Ruiling.

Although the Shen family still doesn't seem to leak on the surface, Du Wenfu knows in his heart that the Shen family can't talk with the past.

With the help of the external force of the Shen family, his great granddaughter can not only better control the family, but also deter those coveted outside.

At the same time, it also helped the family find a reliable ally and prepared for the next turmoil in Lingnan.

Second, what he sees is Shen Ruiling's talent now.

Shen Ruiling not only had the peak cultivation in the middle of foundation building at a young age, but also surprised Du Wenfu, who has lived for more than 200 years.

In his opinion, Shen Ruiling should be a man of great luck.

If his Du family can have some relationship with Shen Ruiling now, when Shen Ruiling will soar to the sky in the future, his Du family will be able to take advantage of the situation!

But now, unexpectedly, Shen Ruiling firmly rejected him, which surprised him.

After all, he almost took the whole Du family as a dowry.

As long as the two of them become partners, the gesture of the Shen family will reach into the Du family and begin to erode the power of the Du family.

Therefore, in any case, it was his Shen family who made a lot of money and his Du family suffered a loss.

But Shen Ruiling refused directly and firmly!

On the other side, Shen Ruiling couldn't help laughing bitterly.

The purpose of his coming to the Du family this time, in fact, the marriage has been solved.

However, he would definitely not agree to form a Taoist companion with the nun of the Du family.

When she became a Taoist priest with this nun of the Du family, their two families really formed a solid alliance.

But this is more unnecessary trouble than a simple alliance.

First of all, the appearance of this female monk is bound to disrupt his normal cultivation plan and even affect his dream.

Secondly, he knew in his heart the purpose of Du Wenfu's marriage.

If they marry, he and the Shen family will be entangled more closely with the interests of the Du family.

However, he did not want to participate in the troubles of the Du family, nor did he want the family to participate.

Although on the surface, it is indeed his Shen family that occupies some advantages, while the Du family is in a passive weakness.

But Shen Ruiling knew that the old man Du Wenfu couldn't stay behind.

Once the two families get married, the Shen family will need to provide help and assistance to the Du family. However, it's hard to say whether they can profit from it. In the end, it may just be in vain!

In fact, Shen Ruiling also thought about whether to let his fourth brother Shen Ruizhi marry the Du family.

However, after much consideration, Shen Ruiling gave up the plan.

The young woman of the Du family, although he just met once, he also saw something.

This female practitioner is very young, at most in her early thirties. At this age, she can build a foundation successfully. Presumably, her spiritual root qualification should be very excellent.

Shen Ruizhi, his fourth brother, is only a sanlinggen qualification. It is very difficult to break through the later stage of foundation construction without some opportunities.

So even if their family is willing to let Shen Ruizhi get married, the Du family will not easily agree here.

In that case, Shen Ruiling was no longer ashamed to say it.

Besides, his fourth brother is too honest. Shen Ruiling is also afraid that his fourth brother will be used by the Du family after marriage!
