Chapter 37
After listening to Yan Li's confession, Daiyu was stunned for a while, and thought to herself, I, Lin Daiyu, have never cared about a life of rich clothes and fine food, such quiet and peaceful days are my favorite, growing flowers and vegetables, reading and practicing calligraphy, Listening to the rain and appreciating the snow, these are really the life I want, but... but... your words are a bit late after all!
Thinking of this, Daiyu had to shake her head, and sighed with red eyes: "Mr. Yan, thank you for your kindness, but Daiyu is an unlucky person, please forgive me..."
"You refuse?" Yan Li's face was a bit embarrassed at first, and then his eyes were red, and he asked tearfully, "Are you rejecting me sincerely? Or is it because of my mother? I hope to be honest. is important to me!"
Daiyu frowned lightly, feeling that no matter how she answered this question, it was not appropriate, so she simply kept silent, shook her head helplessly, and wanted to call Zijuan back.
Yan Li didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he quickly changed another way and asked, "If it wasn't because of my mother, would Ms. Lin move away in a hurry?"
Daiyu thought for a while, and then said: "Of course not, I thought I would live in that small courtyard for the rest of my life..."
"Okay, with your words, I know what to do!" Yan Li let out a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face, and the hand that had been holding Daiyu's arm involuntarily let go.
As soon as he let go, Daiyu felt that the arm held by him was a little sore, so she subconsciously kneaded it with the other hand, and Yan Li also realized that he might have scratched her in a moment of impatience, and hurriedly Apologizing: "I'm sorry, I was too reckless just now, did it hurt you?"
Daiyu wanted to politely deny it, but then she changed her mind and said truthfully: "Yes, it hurts a lot, please don't be so reckless in the future!" exposed.
Seeing the smile on the corner of her mouth, Yan Li felt even more at ease, just about to say a few more words of concern, but Dai Yu took the lead to raise her voice to arouse Zijuan.Yan Li had no choice but to give up that thought, nodded slightly to her, and said: "It's snowing heavily, let's go back and talk about it!" Then he jumped off the carriage and helped Zijuan into the carriage, then got on the horse again and followed The back of the carriage was escorted all the way back to Fenglianzhuang.
At dinner, Aunt Li brought over a steaming bowl of chicken soup, saying that Yan Li ordered it to be boiled specially, and sent it to Daiyu to nourish her body.Daiyu resolutely refused to take it, and asked Aunt Li to take it back.After dinner, an angry Yan Li personally brought over a big bowl and forced Daiyu to drink it.Daiyu twisted her body and refused to pick it up, but reminded lightly: "Young Master Yan, I have sworn in front of my aunt that I will never have anything to do with you from that day on, Young Master Yan, please respect yourself, don't let me Embarrassment!"
Yan Li chuckled, put the chicken soup on the table, and explained: "This is your oath, it cannot restrain me, why am I wrong?"
Daiyu stared blankly, then frowned for a long time and said: "If you say that, don't you think you're on the edge of a dead end?"
Yan Li said with a smile: "It's not that I'm trying to be foolish, it's that your oath has too many loopholes, it's untenable in itself, no wonder others! - Also, didn't you still swear that you will never step into my yard for half a day from now on?" Okay? Well, tomorrow I will ask Uncle Li to cut off the best-blooming red plum and send it to you to raise it. You can also enjoy the plum. Whatever is good in that courtyard, just let someone else bring it over, you don’t need to go there yourself, even if I have something to do in the future, I will come over in person, don’t bother you!”
"You, you, you... it's not good for you to be like this?" Daiyu was angry and funny, and she didn't know how to refute him for a while, but she knew that it was a bit inappropriate for him to act like this.But Yan Li thought it was natural and reasonable for her to do so. In short, one purpose was not to make Daiyu break her oath, but also to not hinder the normal communication between the two.
After going through this incident, Dai Yu knew that Yan Li was definitely not a good man to deal with, and while she was troubled and apprehensive, she was also quite relieved.Maybe... maybe... well, never mind, let everything be fate!
Two days later, Yan Li was going home to have a showdown with Mrs. Wei.Before leaving, he was afraid that Daiyu would take the opportunity to slip away and disappear from then on, so he insisted on asking Zijuan to accompany him for a trip, and he even said that he would take Zijuan for a ride in the city.Daiyu also expected his intentions, although she repeatedly refused, but Zijuan seemed to have been bribed by Yan Li, and kept begging in front of Daiyu to go out to relax, and buy some for Daiyu along the way. decent clothes.Daiyu had no choice but to close her eyes and let her go.
There was nothing to say on the road, when Yan Li and his party arrived at the old house of the Yan family, Yan Li called Zhao'er to greet Zijuan to rest in the guest room, while he went directly to Mrs. Wei's yard.
At this time, Mrs. Wei was meeting guests in the house, and when she heard that Yan Li had returned, she hurriedly let him in.Yan Li didn't think too much about it, and stepped into the main room, but when he entered the door, he raised his head, but was taken aback, because the female guest sitting next to Mrs. Qi Yingxue who came to propose!
When Yan Li saw that it was her, he was stunned and froze on the spot, not knowing how to deal with it.Although Qi Yingxue was a little embarrassed on the face, she was calm, and only looked up at Mrs. Wei to see how she gave instructions.
Mrs. Wei took a look at Qi Yingxue, and she was very happy to see her generous appearance, so she waved her hand to call Yan Li and said, "Li'er, you came back just in time, so hurry up and meet your sister Qi, she just recognized me as a good girl." Mom, you will be brothers and sisters from now on, you should get closer to each other!"
When Yan Li heard this, his head dilated twice, thinking what kind of heart is this Qi Yingxue on, the marriage is not going to happen, and as for coming to recognize her godmother again, there is no need to waste time here.He was thinking wildly, but he saw Yan Ying coming in from the door. Seeing him in a daze, he hurriedly smiled and pushed him, "Brother, why are you so dazed, hurry up and see sister Qi!"
Yan Li knew that this test was doomed, so he had to come over and meet with Qi Yingxue, but he was afraid that his mother would mess things up and bring up the previous marriage endlessly, so he cut to the chase and said, "Mother, my son has a few words that I want to talk to my mother alone. Let's talk, you see..."
When Madam Wei heard this, she felt a little unhappy, but Qi Yingxue's presence was not good enough to refute his face too much, so she reluctantly smiled at Qi Yingxue: "Yingxue, your brother has something to discuss with me, so I will wrong you to come first Sit in Yinger's room, and come to my room for lunch later."
Qi Yingxue hurriedly agreed, and happily followed Yan Ying out.It's just that when Yan Li passed by, Yan Li clearly felt that she was looking at him. In order not to let her have an illusion, Yan Li didn't even lift his head, only letting her go away, and then raised his head He told Mrs. Wei everything about himself and Daiyu.
