Chapter 775: Ma Fu's shrewdness, the gratitude of the head of the Zhu family (3/5, seeking subscriptions)

Arriving at the living room, Ma Fu indeed saw the people from the Zhu family; it was an old man who looked like a butler.

Seeing Ma Fu arrive, the old man quickly bent his body again and again, looking respectful.

"You are from the Zhu family?" Ma Fu asked.

"Replying to Master Ma, this small one is the butler of the Zhu mansion, specially sent by the head of the family to deliver the visiting card." The butler responded quickly.

Ma Fu took the visiting card, looked at it carefully, and understood in his heart: "Sure enough, they want to come and marry into the family."

He looked at the butler and asked: "I heard that the daughter of the Zhu family once went to a private school and lived with men; is there such a thing?"

"Master Ma, you can't talk nonsense; this will damage the young lady's reputation. The young lady has been waiting in the boudoir and has never gone out." The butler said a bit angrily, "Which family is ruining our young lady's reputation? It's truly hateful!"

"Alright, alright." Ma Fu waved his hand, "I just heard someone say this on the street and asked about it. Since there is no problem with the Zhu girl, then please ask the head of the Zhu family to come and discuss the marriage three days later."

"Yes, Master Ma."

The Zhu family butler left the Ma family with a different mood.

After the people from the Zhu family left, Ma Fu clapped his hands, and the next moment, an old man who looked like a steward entered the living room.

"Old Xu, the Zhu family wants to marry into our Ma family. Go and investigate the background of the Zhu family. This matter is very important and cannot be careless." Ma Fu instructed seriously, "If there is any mistake, you understand the consequences!"

"Master, don't worry, I have been working for the Ma family for more than thirty years; when have I ever made a mistake!"

"This matter is different; you must be a hundred times, a thousand times more careful than usual." Ma Fu emphasized seriously.

Giving gifts and doing favors has great implications.

If the other party's reputation is damaged, or if there are other problems, sending someone over is not doing a favor, but offending someone.

As the head of the Ma family, Ma Fu has done this kind of gift-giving many times and has rich experience.

"Yes, Master."

Two days later.

Steward Xu returned, looking happy.

"Master, I entrusted people from all sides to inquire, and that Miss Zhu has never left the house, nor has she ever had any bad rumors."

"Good, how is her appearance and character?" Ma Fu felt settled and asked again.

Steward Xu praised: "Master, this Zhu family manages the family very strictly, and the daughter's upbringing is very good; there is no problem. As for her appearance, I also paid a heavy price to inquire from the Zhu family's maids; she truly has a good appearance, and this is also the confidence of the Zhu family to marry into our Ma family."

"Good." Ma Fu clapped his hands in approval, "Go down and collect your reward."

(aiaa) "Yes."

The next day.

The head of the Zhu family visited with joy. Seeing Ma Fu, he looked flattering.

Although the Zhu family is also a wealthy family, compared to the Ma family, they are a notch behind in terms of power.

This marriage is the Zhu family clinging to the Ma family, so he naturally has to treat it carefully.

In the living room, the two sat down.

Ma Fu waved his hand and dismissed the servants.

"I already know the intention of the head of the Zhu family." Ma Fu showed a smile, "However, I have another proposal for this matter; I wonder if the head of the Zhu family is willing to listen?"

"I don't know what proposal the head of the Ma family has?"

The head of the Zhu family's expression froze. He thought it was a sure thing, but he didn't expect a change. He secretly guessed what went wrong.

"The Zhu girl is a natural beauty and is quite liked by a Daoist Lord; I wonder if you can offer her to that Daoist Lord?"

As soon as the head of the Zhu family heard this, the anger in his heart suddenly rose.

I am marrying into your family just to cling to power.

Your Ma family is good; you directly give my daughter to a Daoist priest. What is your intention?

In this way, wouldn't I fail to cling to the powerful and also lose a daughter for nothing?

"Head of the Ma family, you have gone too far!"

Ma Fu laughed loudly: "It's not strange that the head of the Zhu family has this thought. Come, look at this!"

Saying that, he placed a piece of silk in front of the head of the Zhu family.

"Chant it with your heart, and there will be mysteries."

"Great Brightness Mantra?" Seeing this, the head of the Zhu family was speechless.

He didn't expect the head of the Ma family to also be someone who likes to talk about mystery and Dao.

He must have chanted the scriptures until he became stupid!

Clearly a shrewd person, how could he believe in such a thing?

Although he had doubts in his heart, he couldn't resist Ma Fu's fiery eyes and had to start chanting.

After all, the situation is stronger than the person; follow the head of the Ma family first, and then talk about the marriage later; there will naturally be opportunities.

If he turned against him directly, it would be difficult for the two families to end well.

No—it is that the Zhu family would likely suffer heavy losses.

As the chanting began, the head of the Zhu family initially felt a bit of shame, but gradually, he felt his mind calm down, and a warm current flowed through his body, making him feel comfortable all over, as if he had returned to his youth.

What was even more shocking was that he felt his body was glowing.

After chanting once, Father Zhu felt his body had become several times stronger, with endless strength, and even the skin on the back of his hands that had wrinkles had become a bit smoother.

"This..."

Ma Fu smiled: "How is it? Can this Daoist Lord still enter your eyes?"

"Could it be that there is a True Immortal here?" The head of the Zhu family's voice trembled, "I originally thought that the Daoist priests in the world were just people who played tricks, but I didn't expect there to be real divine abilities and magic arts. It is too late to regret; if I had known, I should have sought immortals and visited the Dao earlier."

"Take it slow, take it slow." Ma Fu laughed, "This is not something from our world; it was created by a Daoist Lord from another world. Even if the head of the Zhu family visited the Dao when he was young, it would be impossible to harvest the true method of the Immortal Dao."

"Before, the head of the Ma family said he wanted to offer my daughter to the Daoist Lord; is it this Daoist Lord who created the true method?" The head of the Zhu family's breathing became rapid, "Is this true?" ===== CHAPTER 776 =====
