Chu Yan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised his head and said, "Mammy, do you think he did this to refuse to marry me?"
“It’s not that I think it is, it’s just that it must be the case.”
Aunt Xu looked at her and said: "He is also the second son of Prince Ning after all. He must have basic etiquette. Even if he doesn't like the lady, he can't make it so obvious. Everyone knows that he behaves like this. There is only one possibility, and that is that he does not want to get married."
The hand on his side was clenched into a fist. Chu Yan sneered: "Then he is really a little pretentious."
Aunt Xu was also a little annoyed, and snorted coldly: "What kind of virtue is it to show yourself by not peeing in the urine? It's his turn to dislike our lady!"
Xiangyi nodded angrily on the side: "That's right!"
Nanny Xu looked at Chu Yan and said: "But now is not the time to break up with them. Let's coax them first. In a few days, if they still trap us like this and prevent us from seeing others, it will be too late to break up with them." There is nothing wrong with us, we have done our best to benevolent and righteous, and the guards of Pingyang Palace are not vegetarians!"
Chu Yan made a snap sound and dropped a piece on the chessboard: "Just follow what grandma said."
Scumbag!
He also wants her to help him relieve himself and continue to take advantage of her in the next life!
Li Han lay on the bed for two whole days. The whiplash on his back finally began to scab, and he was able to get out of bed and walk around.
The first thing he did after getting out of bed was to look for Chu Yan.
Looking at Li Han, who was smiling softly and still graceful in front of him, what Chu Yan recalled in her mind was his hoarse voice: Yin'er.
Chu Yan lowered his eyes and looked shy: "Brother Han, are you done with your work?"
Li Han looked at her delicate little face, his Adam's apple twitching slightly: "Well, I have been wanting to come to you these days, but I don't know what happened, and I have been too busy to get away. How have you been, sister Yan'er, these days?"
"Very good." Chu Yan raised her eyes and smiled at him: "Brother Han has worked hard for many days, and now he is finally free, so he must have a good rest."
Li Han hummed, but didn't know what to say to her for a moment, and the scene suddenly became cold.
Li Han suddenly thought of Shen Yin.
Although he and Shen Yin had known each other for a long time, to him, Shen Yin was not much different from other women. At most, she was just better looking and more eye-catching.
What really made him notice her was at a poetry gathering.
At that time, the boys and girls were sitting around, writing poems, drinking and talking, and somehow they got to talking about the poet they admired the most. Others were talking about famous writers, but Shen Yin mentioned it and no one else really listened. past poet.
No one knew who that person was, only he knew.
Because that is also the poet he admires most.
Since then, he has focused more on Shen Yin, and when she talks about the poet, he can't help but discuss it with her.
There are differences between men and women, so there is always a limit to what they can talk in front of others, and Shen Yin doesn't like to talk much, so he can only say a few words, and he can't always enjoy himself, which is a bit regretful.
Until one day, Shen Yin quietly handed him a letter and asked him if he had the original work of the poet.
From then on, the two began to exchange letters. She understood what he was thinking and what he said. There seemed to be endless things to say between them, instead of being silent as they were now.
"Brother Han?"
Li Han came back to his senses and raised his eyes to look at Chu Yan: "I'm sorry, I was a little lost just now. What did sister Yan'er say?"
Chu Yan smiled: "It's nothing, I just heard from my aunt that Brother Han likes literature and ink. I would like to ask Brother Han, which one likes best poetry or lyrics?"
The smile in front of her is like a flower, so beautiful that people can't take their eyes away.
Regardless of family background, appearance, and figure, she was obviously much better than Shen Yin, not to mention everything that marrying her could bring to him.
Li Han abandoned those messy thoughts and said casually: "I like both poetry and lyrics."
"Is it?"
Chu Yan pouted her lips: "Although I also think poems and lyrics are very good, I prefer more poems."
Hearing this, Li Han became serious: "Why?"
Chu Yan smiled: "Because I think poetry is better than words in terms of artistic conception and beauty. And those who write good poems will definitely be able to write good words, but those who can write good words may not be able to write good words. Can write good poetry.”
These words coincided with what he thought.
Could it be that God actually favored him so much and gave him a better "Chen Yin"?
Li Han suppressed the faint excitement in his heart and asked, "I wonder, sister Yan'er, who is your favorite poet?"
Chu Yan smiled shyly: "Maybe Brother Han has never heard of what I like."
Li Han became even more excited when he heard this, and quickly asked: "Who is it?"
Chu Yan lowered his head in embarrassment: "The layman from the previous dynasty, Banshan."
Hearing the words "Banshan Jushi", Li Han's heart suddenly seemed to be floating on the clouds. He couldn't help but smile: "Actually, I also like Banshan Jushi very much."
When Chu Yan heard this, he immediately raised his head and looked at him with bright eyes: "Really?"
"Yes." Li Han put down the tea cup and leaned slightly closer to her: "Sister Yan'er, which of his songs do you like best?"
Chu Yan thought for a moment and said, "It's his song "Little Meaning"."
"What a coincidence!" Li Han said enthusiastically: "My favorite is also his little poem..."
With a smile on her face, Chu Yan listened tenderly to his opinions on the poem, and expressed her own opinions from time to time, leading Li Han to continue speaking.
Coincidence?
Of course not.
Of course, the gifts Xiangyi gave out these days were not for nothing. When she asked about Li Han's preferences, Yuanxi naturally knew everything.
Chu Yan knew clearly about the layman accompanying Shanshan, including the little meaning he often recited.
When they were in Yihongyuan, two of Li Yin's friends said that Li Han and Shen Yin were close friends who exchanged letters, and Li Han was obsessed with writing and calligraphy. You can know what kind of close friends this is by just thinking about it with your toes.
Although Li Han is no longer Chu Yan's husband, how could she lose the bet and let that scumbag Li Yin succeed?
Furthermore, she would not quarrel with Prince Ning's house unless absolutely necessary. The matter that affected Li Han could not be contained, so why should she not be a pitiful person who was let down?
It’s been a long time since we had such a free chat, and Li Han was very happy: “Sister Yan’er has a very unique view on poetry, which really benefited me a lot.”
Chu Yan said shyly: "Brother Han is laughing at me. I grew up in Pingyang, so my talent and learning are naturally not as good as those of the talented girls in the capital."
"Sister Yan'er, there is no need to belittle yourself." Li Han looked at her and said seriously: "With sister Yan'er's talent and learning, she is one of the best even among the noble girls in the capital!"
Chu Yan was happy when he heard this, but soon lowered his eyes, and even his eyes dimmed: "I have never seen the noble girls in the capital. I don't know what they are like. Brother Han must be trying to make me happy... "
Li Han was slightly startled when he heard this. Looking at the disappointed look on her face, he hesitated for a while and said, "Sister Yan'er is bored in the house?"
