Man Bao and the others stood not far from the inner city gate while holding their horses. They couldn't help but look up at the sun, and then at the sun again.
Bai Shan held her head and said, "Stop looking, you will go blind soon."
Man Bao couldn't help complaining, "Why did Liu Huan take so long?"
Yin You also opened the curtain and took a look outside, and then said to them: "Do you want to get in the car and sit and wait?"
Manbao and the others didn't wait in the car. They directly found a teahouse nearby and sat there.
Yin You's eyes widened and he got out of the car and followed him in.
The four of them drank a cup of tea before Liu Huancai took the group for a walk and came reluctantly.
Bai Shan was surprised, "Do you want to go or not?"
He was obviously very excited when he said it yesterday, but he kept asking to wait for him. If his grandfather didn't agree, he would have to go to his house and steal him out. Why did he look like this after not seeing him all night?
Liu Huan couldn't help but look at Zhou Man.
Zhou Man looked back at him with an innocent face, "Why are you looking at me?"
Seeing that she seemed unaware, Liu Huan breathed a sigh of relief, looked around and asked, "Your niece isn't here."
Man Bao looked at him suspiciously, "You mean Li Ru? She has to go to school. Do you think she is you? If there is no big deal in our family, it is impossible for us to take leave and not go to school."
Bai Erlang and Yin You were struck by a knowing blow.
Because they were the only two people present who specifically asked for leave and did not go to school.
Liu Huan touched his chest and breathed a sigh of relief. He was not ready to face Zhou Liru yet. It would be best if she didn't come. It seemed that Zhou Man didn't know either.
Then his expression swelled and he regained his composure, "Let's go, let's go to Yongzhou!"
Man Bao and the other four looked at him without moving. Bai Erlang asked him, "Why did you come here so early in the morning? You came here so tired and then suddenly you were excited again."
Yin or reasonable suspicion, "Liu Shangshu didn't allow you to go out, so you ran away secretly? But haven't you been familiar with this kind of thing for a long time? Why are your mood swings so big?"
Man Bao then said quietly: "Is it because of Li Ru?"
Liu Huan was so frightened that he jumped up and shouted: "You, how do you know?"
Man Bao: "How come I don't know? How can I not know about my family's affairs?"
Not only did she know that this marriage was rejected by her.
Qian's and Lao Zhoutou's worries were not unreasonable. Man Bao also felt that the Liu family's family status was too high for Li Ru, but she still asked Zhou Liru.
But Zhou Liru refused directly. She said: "Sister-in-law, can a family like the Liu family allow me to become an official?"
She said: "I am not a child anymore. My eldest sister-in-law has said that although the wealthy families outside do not stop girls from going out to play horses and parade in the streets, they do mind if girls do men's things. I just want to find someone like my eldest brother or
For people like my uncle, I will also become an imperial doctor in the future."
Man Bao asked: "Can't find it?"
"Then I won't get married," she said. "It seems that starting a family is for the purpose of raising offspring. In fact, it's just that. But my life is so long, I can't just focus on it. I also want to have a career.
, I don’t seek to be as famous and rich as my sister-in-law, at least someone will remember me a hundred years from now, right?”
And now that she is capable, she does not need to rely on men to survive. She can support herself. She can take care of herself during her lifetime. After her death, she thinks her family will still be willing to collect her body. If not, there is a charity hall.
Well, if you have money, it's not difficult to hire someone to collect the body.
Therefore, in Zhou Liru's opinion, getting married is optional. If you can meet someone who is in love with each other or who is a close friend like your sister-in-law and uncle, it is fine. If you can't meet someone, there is no need to force it.
As for Liu Huan, she felt that they were not the same people.
She said: "He is a bit stupid. Marrying him makes me a little worried about the future. If their family is not happy for me to be an official, he will probably listen to his grandparents and not let me become an official. Then they will divorce. It's weird.
Troublesome."
So Man Bao said to Qian: "Mom, they are not suitable. They should go back to the Liu family."
She felt that unless they reached a consensus on certain things, either the Liu family would bully Li Ru in the future, or Li Ru would bully Liu Huan.
Knowing that Zhou Man actually knew, Liu Huan blushed and got up reluctantly, "How about I stop going?"
Man Bao: "...I didn't bully you either. Didn't I just propose marriage to our family and our family refused? No one should talk about their marriage ten or eight times?"
Man Bao said: "When my fourth brother said we were going to get married, he looked at half a dozen of our young girls of the right age from all over the country. We met for a full twenty times. When we met again, the two families were still affectionate and affectionate. What should we do?
What are you doing, what are you embarrassed about?"
Liu Huan, who had only been on blind dates twice, was shocked, "So many times? Is that because he doesn't like your fourth brother, or because your fourth brother doesn't like him?"
Seeing that his attention was diverted in this way, Bai Shan and Yin You both fell silent.
Man Bao waved his hand and said, "That's all in the past. He looks down on others. Of course, most of the time, people look down on him."
After all, Zhou Lang's reputation was not very good at that time.
Liu Huanshen, who was looked down upon by others during the two blind dates, asked in sympathy: "Then what does Sister-in-law Zhou think of Brother Zhou?"
Man Bao tilted his head and said, "Face? My fourth brother is pretty good-looking. In our area, apart from Bai Shan and Bai Er, he is the only one who comes down. But Bai Shan and the others were too young at that time, so my fourth sister-in-law couldn't see it."
When you get to them, you can see my fourth brother."
Liu Huan, who lives in the capital city with outstanding people and a lot of Yang Heshu, cannot understand, "Your fourth brother is very good-looking?"
Just so handsome, right?
Man Bao nodded affirmatively and said: "It looks good. Look at my fourth brother's eyes. Are they the same as mine?"
He added: "The nose is straight and the face is handsome. It's just that I'm a businessman now so it's a bit dark. It used to be fairer in the village. If I cover it up like my little wife, I can get even whiter. That will look better."
So everyone just talked about Zhou Lang's appearance and rode out of the inner city, strolling all the way out of the outer city. Only then did Liu Huan realize, why did he just leave with others like that?
Liu Huan was a little embarrassed, but at this moment the discomfort in his heart dissipated a lot, and he simply asked, "So you are not embarrassed in front of me?"
Man Bao shook his head.
Liu Huan went to see other people.
Even Yin You rode beside him to listen to the gossip. When he saw him, he looked over and shook his head together.
Liu Huan breathed a sigh of relief, felt refreshed, and said to them: "I have only seen each other twice, but I didn't know about them both times."
He said: "I didn't say anything the first time. At that time, my family asked me to bring a fruit plate to my grandmother. I brought it in, and was pulled by the old lady inside and talked for a while. After I came out, I realized that we were looking at each other.
, I just raised my head and glanced at the girl, and that was it, I didn’t even know what she looked like.”
"This second time is with Liru," Liu Huan said: "I know what she looks like, but I don't know when we met her. Yesterday, my grandmother came to talk to me, and I realized that I was confused again.
