Who is suitable to marry?
Look at the question being asked, it's self-evident. As a top scholar at the Jinshi level, he can figure it out with his toes.
However, if you think about it and talk about it, you can't really tell the truth.
He indeed had a brilliant answer in his heart, but Qi Dalang just kept it in his heart, closed his teeth, and acted out in reality, "I love you but it's hard to say in my heart".
Seeing that he was reluctant to speak, Yin Tao's teeth felt itchy.
You dead man, can't you take the initiative?
She thought about it and decided to make her words clear, have a heart-to-heart talk with him, and take this opportunity to see what he really thinks.
"Do you think I am worthy of you?"
"Ah? You..."
Don’t they all say that women are born with subtle beauty?
If so, how could she ask so straightforwardly and openly?
Although I was a little confused, I still had to answer.
Qi Yu gritted his teeth and said, "With your amazing talent and beauty, it is more than enough to match Qi. However, Qi is an ordinary person and has a family, so I can only Look up at the pearl and find it beyond reach.”
Yin Tao tasted the food and asked happily: "So, you still admire me very much?"
Qi Yu did not comment, just nodded and said: "Although I love the beauty of the lotus, I can only appreciate it from a distance and dare not pick it up close to play with it."
"What? Didn't you pick it nearby? You, you, you are really wasting the natural resources!"
"I just……"
Yin Tao ignored his embarrassment at all and continued to scratch her: "How come you, a smart person like you, don't understand the principle of the first to get the first to get closer to the water and the tower?"
Qi Yu smiled and said, "As for me, it's like a rabbit doesn't eat the grass beside its nest, and it's not afraid of the shadow when it's upright." After saying that, he felt that the wording was inappropriate, so he changed his words: "Actually, I don't want to delay Your youth.”
hold up?
It's too euphemistic to say it, but I like it.
Seeing that man being so virtuous, Yin Tao couldn't help but secretly rejoiced. Although her heart moved strangely, her face remained as usual.
"Suppose that my Yin family formally proposes marriage to you, will you...will agree?"
"Well, there is something wrong with this question. Things like this must be approved by the head wife of the family."
"Don't talk nonsense. Sister Liu must have nothing to say. I'm just asking you now!"
"Just ask me?"
Qi Yu smacked his lips and replied: "Oh, it's not like you don't know that I have a wife now!"
Yin Tao rolled her eyes at him and said, "You are now a second-grade imperial official. Even if you follow the formal etiquette, you can have several concubines. So, what you said just now is not justified." "
"Do you want to hear the real reason?"
"Yes! I hope you will be honest and honest with me!"
Yin Tao's words were very sincere, without the slightest hint of playfulness, as if she was tearing her heart out, and Qi Dalang seemed to be infected by her, he quickly put away his perfunctory attitude and showed a sincere look on his face.
The latter couldn't help but think: That's right, instead of being so unclear, it would be better to explain everything thoroughly and clearly to each other. This would be better for everyone.
Thinking of this, Qi Yu nodded solemnly, and with an moved expression, he began to be truly frank.
"You know, in my mind, I had a big vision."
"Oh? What vision?"
"I hope that during my lifetime, I can be committed to promoting the development and progress of this country and making it move in a relatively enlightened direction. Although this wish has a long way to go, I am willing to spare no effort until my death!"
"You keep talking..."
Next, Qi Yu gave a characteristic summary of his longing and yearning.
This theory is absolutely unprecedented!
He said:
For the country, he wants to achieve technological leadership and prosperity, so that China will shine dazzlingly in the whole world like an Oriental Pearl. As far as the people are concerned, he wants to realize the equality between men and women in his dream, make the family rich and the people prosperous, and surpass any outstanding prosperity in our Chinese history.
In short, it is necessary to carry out drastic reforms, make amends with the old and seek new ones, and create a historical precedent in the system.
However, there is an important link in this, which is the implementation of necessary monogamy.
Without this article as the cornerstone of the system, the so-called equality between men and women cannot be achieved, and it will become a stumbling block to social progress. Therefore, this belief must be adhered to.
Suppose that, as the promoter of the system, I am the first to violate this principle, then do you think this vision can still be achieved?
Confucius said: If his body is upright, he will act without being told; if his body is not upright, he will not obey even though he is told.
Anyone who sets an example must play an exemplary and leading role. How can it be done if you only talk the talk but don't do the deeds?
"You are as beautiful as an immortal, and you are extremely knowledgeable. You are a rare woman in the world! And I, Qi Yu, am not a great saint who has no desires or pursuits. How can I remain unmoved when faced with your appearance like a phoenix? What? Besides, you have always tried your best to help me behind the scenes, and you have never complained. How could I not know such affection? "
As soon as his voice changed, he sighed again: "However, if I am committed to realizing my ideals and ambitions, I must set an example and cannot do whatever I want. Therefore, I can only sacrifice my own happiness."
Actually, there was one more thing he didn't say.
That is, he cares very much about his wife's feelings. Fortunately, Liu Quan has now overcome that hurdle and let go of the entanglement. It is precisely because of this that he did not mention it in particular.
Yin Tao listened very carefully to Qi Yu's inner voice, not missing a single word.
Judging from the results he expressed, it is indeed disappointing. However, if analyzed from the emotional point of view, it is due to scruples and not his original wish.
In other words, he still pretends to be his own, not because he doesn't like or look down upon.
Understood!
This answer, although not perfect, is acceptable.
Yin Tao smiled happily and said: "Since you value me so much, I decided to stay here until you realize your ideals and ambitions."
Not leaving?
Haha, this is really great!
Qi Yu laughed heartily when he heard this and asked, "If you don't leave, what will Liang Yingzhong's family do about the marriage proposal?"
"What else can we do? Just ignore it. Is it possible that the Liang family dares to come to Qiongzhou to rob me openly?"
"Robbing someone? How dare he? Niang Xipi, on my three-thirds of an acre of land, I don't allow others to run wild! Even if the chief minister of the cabinet comes, I still won't give you face!"
This sounds so heart-warming...
In particular, the possessiveness implicit in this domineering attitude is simply itchy and tantalizing.
Happy, Yin Tao also revealed what was in her heart: "Actually, it doesn't mean that I have to seek your reputation. As long as you have me in your heart, I will be satisfied."
"I even feel that being your concubine is not as considerate as being your confidante. In that way, I have a romantic feeling of not seeking eternity, but only loving the day and night."
Qi Yu was about to interrupt, but saw the beauty press her delicate hand, indicating that she wanted to continue talking.
Okay, then I'll keep listening.
Yin Tao smiled sweetly and said with a satisfied look on her face: "My friend, do you know that every time I see the glorious moment of your success, I feel so proud that I can even be so happy that I can't sleep." Jane In other words, I feel very satisfied to be the woman behind you."
move!
No! It’s so touching!
Qi Yu's heart surged when he heard this, the corners of his eyes turned red, and he was even more moved.
What ideals, ambitions, and national events are not important at this moment!
For now, he just wants to give this distressed woman the care and protection she deserves.
"How about you marry me?"
"ah……"
