This is a very large and spacious carriage.
The outside of the carriage is all black and looks a bit solemn, but the inside is very luxuriously decorated and the colors are brighter.
The floor was covered with embroidered cushions and the seats were covered with thick blankets.
There is also a fixed small table between the front and rear seats, and there is even a basket of cherries on the small table.
There is a very good fragrance in the carriage, slightly stronger than orchid, but slightly lighter than rose.
It smells a bit like tuberose.
From this point of view, this carriage should be exclusive to this girl.
It's nice to have someone with a special car. The ancients also knew how to enjoy it.
The two were sitting opposite each other in the carriage. Although they were separated by a small table, they were very close to each other. Zhongli Ruoshui became more and more panicked and suddenly felt a little thirsty.
In the past, she would have grabbed the cherries in the basket and eaten them, but now she was embarrassed.
After all, you have to act like a lady.
So even her head was slightly raised. It wasn't that she didn't dare to look at Li Chenan across from her, but grandma said that she should show her weakness in front of men, so as to further stimulate the man's desire to protect.
Men can often gain great satisfaction and confidence from protecting women. The weaker you appear, the stronger his protective desire will be, and then... he will want to protect you for the rest of his life.
Just like she did when she and her grandfather first got together.
Are you acting weak now?
After all, it was the first time to pretend like this, so Zhongli Ruoshui didn't have much confidence.
Of course, Li Chenan didn't know that the girl opposite was pretending. He thought that this was how women in this world should be.
After all, there are those rules and regulations of three obediences and four virtues, especially women from large families must abide by those etiquette and morals.
But the atmosphere in the carriage was a bit dull at the moment, so he thought of talking to the girl about something to relieve the girl's restraint.
But what to talk about?
I can't ask you if you've eaten yet, right?
"Your carriage is quite nice,"
Li Chenan really just said it casually. After all, a chat has to have a beginning, right?
But he never expected that Zhongli Ruoshui would immediately raise his head when he heard this, "Then I'll give it to you!"
Perhaps she felt that her performance was a little abrupt, so she quickly added: "It doesn't mean anything else. After all, you saved my life today, so I can repay your life-saving grace."
Li Chen was happy, "I don't have a place to keep a horse, I don't have a place to park my car, and I can't afford a driver, so I accept the girl's offer."
"Do you know who those bad guys who attacked you today are?"
Zhongli Ruoshui shook his head, pretending not to know, "I don't know, I, I got off the carriage at the west end of the alley of your tavern, looked in the tailor shop, and then I wanted to go to your I was having a drink in that tavern, but I didn’t expect to meet those bad guys within a few steps.”
"Oh, anyway, take a few more people with you when you go out. They may be your enemies at home."
"Well," Zhongli Ruoshui nodded obediently, stopped talking about the topic, and asked Li Chenan: "Can I come to your tavern more often in the future?"
"It's not that I like drinking, it's just that... I think the atmosphere in your tavern is very good, and I feel peaceful and peaceful sitting there... Of course, it would be better if I could sit in your backyard."
"Qiao Xi said she has no friends, but actually I don't have any friends either. I think she and I can become good friends, how about that?"
What can Li Chenan say?
It is true that Li Qiaoxi has no friends. It is understandable that the girl in front of her has no friends. After all, there should be more rules in their family.
In addition, as she became her sister's friend, she became a platform near the water, and she would have more opportunities to interact with her in the future.
It just kind of delivered itself to the door.
Poor little white rabbit!
Looking at Zhongli Ruoshui's expectant eyes, Li Chenan pretended to think for a moment before nodding.
"That's fine, but there are some things I have to say first."
Zhongli Ruoshui was immediately overjoyed, and her eyes turned into crescent moons. From now on, I would go to the backyard of the tavern to see Li Qiaoxi's name, which would naturally give me many more opportunities to be alone with Li Chenan.
He was even able to have some contact with his mother.
In this way, you can learn more about this person, such as his character, his poems and articles, and also see how he manages his Huapingchun better.
With my beauty and skills, I don’t believe that you, Li Chenan, can escape from my grasp!
"you say."
"I think you have heard about the Li family in Guangling."
Zhongli Ruoshui nodded, thinking that I have thoroughly investigated all eight generations of your Li family's ancestors.
"I was kicked out of the house by my father. My mother and sister were not doing well in the Li family because of me. Of course, they are much better now."
"My sister is literate, but she doesn't have a lot of education. I mean in some ways she might, might have some conflicting views with you."
"For example, she is very frugal, she is very simple, and she will do her best as long as she recognizes someone."
"You... your family must be very wealthy, so you live a life of pampering. If you really treat my sister as a friend, based on my understanding of the word friend, it has no distinction between high and low, no matter what you have As a person, I don’t even want you to show too much superiority towards my sister.”
"Friends are sincere and treat each other with sincerity and share the joys and sorrows. I don't want you to cause harm to my sister."
Zhongli Ruoshui listened carefully, and she understood what Li Chenan meant. This was the view of family status.
Zhongli Mansion has a very high status even if you look at the entire Ning Kingdom.
As for the Guangling Li family, if it weren't for the two houses in Yujing City, the name of the Guangling Li family might have been forgotten by people.
The Li family in Yujing City has now emerged in Ningguo, but the Li family in Guangling has long since declined.
So what he was worried about was that he bullied his sister because of his good family background?
This worry is normal, but Zhongli Ruoshui has no family background due to the influence of his grandmother Fan Taohua.
"You don't need to worry about this. My family is not a wealthy family. It's just... we just have more fields."
"Besides, Qiaoxi and I had a great chat today. I think we can get along very well."
"That's fine. You can go to my tavern to find my sister anytime you have time."
Zhongli Ruoshui's wish came true, and he breathed a long sigh of relief. He suddenly felt relaxed all over, feeling that the scene he performed today had finally achieved excellent results.
As the carriage drove along, the two of them gradually became less unfamiliar, and their words gradually became more casual.
Of course, Zhongli Ruoshui still didn't show her original appearance. She was getting better and better with each frown, so that Li Chenan began to like this girl more and more.
The carriage arrived outside Peach Blossom Villa.
They both got out of the carriage.
Li Chenan was surprised when he looked at the vast fields under the twilight and the peach trees further away——
This girl’s family is a big landowner!
Zhongli Ruoshui stood next to Li Chenan and looked at her. She lowered her head slightly, crossed her hands in front of her, and twisted her body slightly. After all, she did not dare to take Li Chenan home.
"You go in."
"Well, I'll go to your place tomorrow."
"good."
But Zhongli Ruoshui didn't leave.
It would be difficult for Li Chenan to leave without her.
"What's wrong?"
Zhongli Ruoshui raised her head, eyes twinkling with stars, she bit her lip, "You haven't asked my name yet!"
