Shang was actually trembling by the time he reached the Fa family dwelling. He was scared and he admitted it. Fa Zhou met him at the door and invited him inside.
"Captain Li, this is a surprise. What can I do for you?"
Actually Sir, I found a way to pay back Mulan for everything she did for me. I heard from a friend that she is going to face the matchmaker once again. I've come to help. I wish to help Mulan pass the test. I helped my friend's sister pass the test just before the war started and I think this would be a good way to pay her back." Shang sounded as confident as ever.
I would love your help but you need to get Mulan to accept it. She is with her mother in town right now but she will be back soon." They sat down in a cozy sitting area.
"You'll be staying here if she agrees. It will make things easier."
"Sir, may I ask you a small favor?" Shang asked figuring it was the best time to bring up his younger charges.
"What do you need?"
"My father died in battle, as I'm sure Mulan has told you, and my mother died after giving birth to my younger brother. My younger cousin was also orphaned and is living under my roof. I must ask if they can join me here in your home while I am helping Mulan. If this is a problem my friend has agreed to watch them while I am gone, but if you will allow it, I would prefer them to remain with me in such a difficult time for them."
"You will make a great father one dat Li Shang. They are welcome to join you if my daughter agrees." Fa Zhou was about to go on but was interrupted.
"Agree to what Baba?" Asked Mulan from the doorway then she turned to Shang. "Captain Li, what a pleasure to see you again."
"I've volunteered to help you pass the matchmakers test. That is if you'd like my help. I mean not that you need it. Its just—"Shang began to ramble.
"I'll accept your help Captain, but it will take more than just you to get me in the matchmaker's favor. I set her on fire last time around." Mulan smiled at the memory.
"Really? This is going to take a lot of work." Shang stood and bowed to Fa Zhou. "I will be back in the morning with my things. Thank you for your hospitality." He bowed once more and left.
A/N: Its short I know but the next one will be longer. Unknown I must say I liked both your reviews but I can't update Women and War until I get rid of this cursed writers block. Its annoying really. I hop you enjoyed this chapter and the address to my yahoo group will be in my profile. See ya.
