Su Wan sighed helplessly, this dad is really...
The person next to me coughed lightly: "Miss Six."
Su Wan felt a little guilty and apologized slowly: "Master Li, please don't take offense. My father has always been like this. Please run away."
Li Lin had a gentle demeanor and a clear face. He pursed his lips slightly and said calmly: "It's okay. The third master is hospitable and I like it very much."
Su Wan nodded: "Thank you, Mr. Li."
There was a long silence immediately after. Su Wan followed the original owner's daily routine after wearing the book and never stepped out of the house. Mr. Li was the only foreign man she had ever seen, so she suddenly felt a little embarrassed. .
for a long time.
"Sixth girl."
Su Wan hummed and came back to her senses: "Is there anything else Mr. Li has to do?!"
He looked at her again, pursed his lips, considered his words, and then asked: "Do you want to marry me?!"
Su Wan's mind buzzed, and she was a little confused. Her lips trembled, and she looked at him with wide eyes, full of shock and disbelief.
"Marry, marry you..."
This was something she had never thought of, and she couldn't react right now.
Li Lin looked at her eyes widened in shock and her mouth slightly opened. He suddenly remembered that in the peach garden that day, other girls were fighting openly and secretly. She was sitting there, eating like a squirrel.
What a lovely girl.
Thinking of this, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, and there was a smile in his gentle eyes. He originally thought that he would leave after a short walk, but when he suddenly saw her, he felt some impulse in his heart.
Among the group of girls who were always belittling others and elevating themselves, she had a quiet temperament, aloof from the world, gentle and charming at the same time, which made him almost want to reach out and touch her.
He wanted her.
It seemed that just at that glance, he had such an impulse.
There's something magical about it.
"Although I come from a family of farming and studying, my ancestors also had great names and ministers, but they are now in decline. Let's not mention them. Our family still has hundreds of acres of fertile land, several houses, and some money, although it is not as good as those in this imperial city. Although I am rich and noble, I can still afford food and drink. If you marry me, I will definitely not treat you badly."
"If you like to eat, I will keep a few cooks at home to provide you with meals and snacks."
When he talked about eating, his eyes clearly lit up when he saw her.
So cute.
He smiled softly: "It's just that the place where my family lives is in a mountain village, which is a bit remote. If you want to go to the market, you have to take a carriage for an hour to reach a nearby town. There are not many things in that town. If you want to buy Those who are better have to ride for more than an hour to the nearest Fucheng."
Su Wan came back to his senses in a daze, his face slightly red: "You, why are you telling me this..."
Li Lin smiled, and this time he actually laughed out loud. His voice was a little low and pure: "I just want to talk to Miss Six about my situation. The girl is simple in temperament. I'm afraid she doesn't like this high-ranking family. That's it." The Jinning Marquis Mansion can be regarded as peaceful in this imperial city, but these things still happen, and everyone is working on their own plans, and you and I are fighting for it."
"If you marry into a high-ranking family, you will be just a granddaughter-in-law, with two mothers-in-law above you. It is normal for young masters from high-ranking families to take wives and take concubines, but one day the daughter-in-law becomes a mother-in-law and the master of the family. , it’s just physical and mental exhaustion.”
"I'm different. My parents are gone, and there's no one to control me. My ancestors ordered me not to take concubines. Even if I don't have children, I can't take concubines even if I adopt someone to raise under my knees."
Su Wan's mind was a little dizzy from what he said, and it took a long time before he could react.
At this moment, Su Xun had already walked out of the house with several scrolls in his arms, and his voice was heard from a distance: "Master Li, come quickly, it's right here. I'm so happy to hear the Panasonic chess picture. Jiang Xue Yu Yue who returned Mr. Xue’s favor is all here.”
Li Lin smiled slightly and said to Su Wan: "Miss Six, why don't you think about it?! I will leave in seven days. If you think about it clearly, you can send someone to give me a message."
After saying that, he strode forward to greet her, and he and Su Xun admired the famous paintings together. Su Wan stood there, a little dazed, and she didn't come back to her senses until Xiao Sang ran over and called her out of breath.
Li Lin, is he attracted to her? !
She blinked and looked at the two people for a long time before speaking: "Let's go back to the house. The sun is getting a bit hot now."
"Yes, girl." Xiao Sang helped Su Wan into the house. She sat on the couch next to the window, leaning against the wall and holding a soft pillow in a daze, not caring about what was going on outside.
In the memory of the original owner, Su Xun borrowed pictures to enjoy them with friends more than once or twice. He had always cherished poetry and paintings, especially this famous painting from the ancients. He cherished it very much and would definitely not damage it.
Xiao Sang made her a cup of tea. Seeing that she looked a little confused, he asked her: "Girl, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"
Su Wan took a sip of tea and shook her head gently: "It's okay."
Li Lin's proposal really moved her.
There are no elders above, so she can make her own decisions in everything. If she were to marry in this imperial city, there would be at least a mother-in-law above her. If her mother-in-law is nicer, her life will be easier and faster. If she is unlucky, her life will be miserable. It's painful to step on the edge of a knife.
There is a ready-made reason for making a living under someone else's hand, even if you are punished by others.
More importantly... what Li Lin said at the end was that her ancestors had ordered that they were not allowed to take concubines. Even if they could not give birth to a child, they were not allowed to adopt one. This made her very moved.
She is a modern person. Although she has tried her best to integrate into the world since she came here, in this era, it is normal for men to marry wives and take concubines and sleep in the same house. She really has no interest in fighting for a man with a group of women.
Moreover, it doesn't matter even if Li Lin is poorer, she is rich!
Her mother is the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo. Although she is a concubine, she is also the only daughter. She has been raised in the name of her aunt since she was a child. When she got married, she also had a lot of red makeup. These things will be hers in the future. These are enough for her ancestral home. Sundu couldn't finish eating or drinking.
This Li Lin... was born well...
This wave is not a loss!
Su Wan thought about it secretly, and compared her future of marrying into a high-ranking family in the imperial capital with marrying Li Lin. The former was really meaningless, while the latter, although she lost her glory and wealth, was still free and at ease.
Even if Li Lin doesn't like her, no one can care about her after she goes out. She can still live her own life, sleep naturally and wake up every day, raise flowers and plants in her free time, bask in the sun, read a storybook, and study when she has nothing else to do. Food, how wonderful!
"I made a decision!"
"Girl, what have you decided?!"
