"It's so late and I don't go back. I thought there was a thief in the yamen. I didn't expect that a beautiful girl was handling official business for me. Isn't this young man a little ungrateful and unkind?" Li Xiuyuan looked at Qiu.
Rong Na looked panicked and quickly joked.
Qiurong chuckled and blushed slightly: "I wonder where Mr. Li went to be lazy during the day? But when the little girl saw Mr. Li, she was dragged out by two girls. Could it be that Mr. Li is in love outside?"
When I asked this question, I couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
But after enduring it for a day, I still didn't want to leave this question in my mind.
Li Xiuyuan said bluntly: "Those are the two daughters of Fu Tianchou, the Minister of War, and one of them, Miss Fu Qingfeng, is engaged to me, and she is... my fiancée."
"That's it." The smile on Qiurong's face gradually disappeared, and she became a little disappointed and sad.
She saw the woman during the day. She was indeed beautiful and dignified, with the temperament of a lady, and she was indeed a good match for Mr. Li.
It's just that she is loved by Mr. Li, but as for herself... thinking of this, she couldn't help but lower her head and cry.
"Miss Qiurong, why are you crying?" Li Xiuyuan was startled and hurriedly walked over and asked.
"No, it's nothing. Thank you Mr. Li for your connection. The little girl is fine. She was burned by a puff of candle smoke." Qiurong hurriedly wiped her tears to prevent Mr. Li from seeing her ugly appearance. She was a woman in distress and wanted to get this
Waiting for a man's favor seems to be too unrealistic.
Only young ladies from noble families can be treated differently by Mr. Li.
Li Xiuyuan looked at the candlestick that was more than ten feet away, and couldn't help but shook his head and said: "I don't understand what Miss Qiurong is thinking. It's not that I coldly reject Miss Qiurong's thoughts, but you also saw it, Miss Qiurong,
I have been engaged to you for a long time, and Miss Qiurong is a good lady and a good girl. If I really accept Miss Qiurong's heart, how will Miss Qiurong deal with herself in the future?"
"I can't give Miss Qiurong your wife's status, so I just want to wait for Miss Qiurong's father to come to the capital and send Miss Qiurong back. Isn't it better to find a good match and get married by a matchmaker someday?
"
Qiurong blinked her beautiful eyes and said with a hint of resentment, "How can Mr. Li be so sure that the little girl is a woman who cares about her status? If Mr. Li doesn't despise the little girl's humble family background, the little girl will be willing to follow Mr. Li."
Saying she is willing to follow her shows that she is willing to be a concubine.
In order to pursue her own love, she did not regret her decision, and she knew that Mr. Li seemed indifferent and did not interact with her, but in fact he was very kind and gentle.
If not, how could he have been rescued immediately when he was kidnapped by a ghost that day, and how could he have carried him all the way back to his house to be cared for and treated by others?
Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but feel funny when he saw that Qiurong, a woman, was so bold in revealing her intentions, while he, as a grown man, was hesitant.
The more I live, the better I get over it.
In the past, when Qingmei and Xiao'e came to visit, I would kill them first and tell them later. I would settle the relationship in private first and then talk to my parents.
When did you become bound by your status and etiquette?
It seems that after living in this world for a long time, my own nature has been deceived.
"Master Li, I'm sorry to disturb you tonight, but I'll take my leave first."
When Qiu Rong saw that Li Xiuyuan didn't answer, she just thought that she had embarrassed him by revealing her feelings. She endured her sadness and bowed before leaving. After leaving, she thought about how she would spend her whole life with the Ancient Buddha of Qingdeng.
Reciting sutras and praying for Mr. Li can be regarded as repaying Mr. Li for his repeated rescues.
But the more I think about it, the sadder I feel.
"Miss Qiurong, wait." Li Xiuyuan suddenly grabbed her slender, slightly cold hands.
Qiurong stopped for a moment, turned around and looked at him in surprise, a touch of expectation could not help but appear in her beautiful eyes.
Li Xiuyuan coughed twice: "I was just thinking about whether I should find a time to settle the matter of taking concubines, but I was worried about whether my father-in-law would agree to the matter between us? But I also think that as long as Miss Qiurong is firm,
If so, even if my father-in-law objects, I think I should be able to persuade you. It’s so late, Miss Qiurong, it’s not safe for you to go out alone, so just occupy the government office tonight.”
Qiurong was startled for a moment when she heard this, then her pretty face turned red, and she bowed her head in embarrassment. She didn't know how to answer these words for a while, so she just nodded slowly and said yes.
"Everyone in the slave family listens to Li Lang."
With the word "nujia" and the word "lilang", Qiurong seemed happy and quickly began to adjust her position. From now on, she has identified herself as Li Xiuyuan's concubine, and she plans to stay there forever and never again.
Change.
"You should call me Young Master, Li Lang is too boring." Li Xiuyuan smiled.
"This is my first time calling you this. Please don't take offense if there is something wrong with me. I just learned from other women who have seen them call me this before." Qiurong's face turned even redder.
"So that's it." Li Xiuyuan said; "By the way, has Qiurong had dinner?"
Qiurong replied: "It's okay, sir, I'm not hungry."
But before she finished speaking, there was a growling sound in her belly, which immediately made her so ashamed that she didn't dare to look at the man. She was indeed very hungry. She came to the Yamen in the morning because she didn't want to.
After leaving, I just wanted to wait for Li Xiuyuan to come back and eat at noon and night.
"I knew it. I could tell by touching your hand that you were low on energy and blood and your body was a little weak." Li Xiuyuan shook his head and took out a crystal fruit from the Ghost King's bag.
"I have a fruit here. If you eat it, you won't be hungry for several months. Take it quickly."
Qiu Rong took it carefully and saw that the fruit was crystal clear. She heard something strange and knew that this was a rare thing. It might be a treasure of fairy fruit. She wanted to eat it but hesitated for a moment.
"It's okay, eat it, I still have it here." Li Xiuyuan took out another fruit and said with a smile, he could see Qiurong's thoughts.
Qiurong nodded, opened her mouth slightly and swallowed the fruit.
Sure enough, as soon as I swallowed the fairy fruit, I felt warm all over my body, and my hunger was not quenched all of a sudden. Not only that, but I also felt indescribably energetic, and the fatigue from handling official documents for the man before was completely gone.
.
"By the way, this is the silver lock from my Li family. If you don't mind the style, you can wear it. My father made this for me to give to my future wives and concubines." Li Xiuyuan suddenly took out another wooden box.
When you open it, you will see a pair of exquisite silver locks inside.
"How dare I reject this gift from my parents-in-law." Qiurong's pink face was shy, but she tied the silver lock around her fair neck without hesitation.
Touch and look at such exquisite objects.
Of course, the most important thing is the love gift given by the lover.
