Chapter 258 I don’t know the origin of love
Shen Li felt warm in her heart. She raised her eyes and looked at him, asking word by word: "Pei Yu, what do you like about me?"
Pei Yu also restrained the smile on his face to avoid Ah Li thinking that he was frivolous.
He had thought about this question and asked himself many times in his heart, but he couldn't explain it clearly.
Maybe it was because she left a good impression on him when she saved him at the beginning; or maybe it was because when they met in the bamboo forest, the girl turned and ran away without any hesitation.
He himself didn't know exactly when the girl in front of him caught his eyes and won his heart.
"Ali, who can explain the word love clearly? If you fall in love, you fall in love. Do you need any reason?"
Shen Li stared into his eyes, saw his seriousness, and was also a little surprised by what he said.
Indeed, love is a matter that has never been traced.
But I said "like", while he used the word... love!
But he was quick to take advantage of the situation, taking the opportunity to express his feelings.
Shen Li didn't answer him. She put the cool seal in her hand into the box, raised her hand to close the wooden box, and ordered him to leave.
"I have something else to do, so I won't entertain you."
Pei Yu didn't hesitate and got up and left. When he opened the door, he turned around and said, "By the way, A-Li, I live next to your house on Chunhui Road."
Then he went out, and considerately closed the door.
Shen Li: Who asked him where he lives?
After sitting in the room for a while, he carried the box back to Daohua Village.
I didn't go to the store the next day. I sat at home and chatted with my family. In the afternoon, I heard someone report that Governor Su had arrived.
The whole family was a little stunned. What had they done? Why did the prefect come here in person?
"Mom and Dad, it's not a big deal, please invite the person in first."
"Yes, yes, let's go."
After all, he was the prefect, so the whole family immediately got up and went to the door to greet him.
As a result, the two sides met halfway. The Su couple were followed by some attendants, holding many gift boxes and several pieces of cloth in their hands.
Shen Changshan bowed and saluted, "Master Su, please come this way."
"You're welcome. Ah Li helped me a lot yesterday, so I brought my wife and children to thank you today."
"Master Su, please come this way."
"it is good."
The person was brought to the living room, where tea and cakes were soon served.
Su Zhihui sat next to Shen Li, listening to her parents and Uncle Shen and Aunt Shen greeting each other. She didn't want to be here anymore and blinked at Shen Li.
"Dad and Mom, Uncle Su and Aunt Su, I'm taking Ah Hui to my yard to look at the flowers."
"Okay, let's go."
Mrs. Su also nodded in agreement. Although she didn't know how many flowers there were in Shen Li's yard, her daughter already had several pots, and she also loved beautiful things.
Su Zhihui didn't say much along the way, until she arrived at Shen Li's yard, then she released her true nature.
"Ali, I'm so angry! My cousin is trying to harm me just because of a marriage that hasn't even been arranged yet!"
Her cheeks puffed up and she put her hands on her hips. She was obviously very angry, otherwise she wouldn't have said these words.
Shen Li sat by the window, put some charcoal in the small stove to boil water and make tea.
Su Zhihui continued to express her anger.
As she was talking and watching Shen Li's actions, the tension in her heart gradually dissipated. She sat opposite and drank the hot tea. After talking so much, she was indeed thirsty.
"Aren't you angry anymore?"
Su Zhihui put down the teacup and thought carefully: "It's not just that I'm angry, I still can't figure it out."
"Jiang Yining has lived in my house for a while. Although I have had some disagreements with her, my father and mother have always been fair and have never treated her harshly. But she almost hurt me for a man who is not sure whether he is round or flat. I am very angry."
Shen Li picked up the teacup and said, "Ah Hui, people's situations are different, so they think differently. Since your cousin is staying at your house and wants to marry you, her family background must not be as good as yours."
"Perhaps you don't want this marriage, but in her eyes, he is an extremely rare and good son-in-law."
Su Zhihui was silent for a rare moment, and the anger on her face dissipated a lot.
"I misunderstood. She originally came to stay at my house because she wanted my parents to help her find a good marriage."
She said this was a bit depressing, which showed that Lord Su and his wife usually protected her too well, which was not necessarily a good thing in ancient times.
"Now that it's been dealt with, don't think too much about it."
"Ali, you are right. My cousin has been sent back. She will tell the Jiang family everything she did. There is no need to worry about it anymore."
But because she had suffered so much in the marriage, Su Zhihui subconsciously resisted the marriage and had a bad impression of the man whom she had never met.
After talking for a while, Su Zhihui took out a purse, took out a silver note of one thousand taels from it, and pushed it in front of Shen Li. Before Shen Li could refuse, she said directly:
"Ali, those thank-you gifts were prepared by my parents. I originally wanted to buy you something, but I didn't see anything suitable. This is my personal allowance, you are not allowed to refuse it."
"you……"
"If you refuse, you don't consider me a friend!"
Shen Li didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Where did you get this from?"
Su Zhihui giggled, "So just keep it."
"Okay, then I won't be polite to you."
"Yeah, I haven't been polite to you. By the way, I'm going to Beijing to celebrate the New Year this year. I want to take the flowers you gave me to my grandmother. Will Ah Li be angry?"
"No, since I gave it to you, it's yours."
"Ah."
After talking for a while, a messenger came from the front and said that Magistrate Su and his men were leaving. Su Zhihui pouted her lips. How long had they been here?
However, she also understood that her father was indeed quite busy as the year was coming to an end.
After seeing them out the gate, Shen Li watched their carriage go away with a smile on her face. Before she could look away, she saw a carriage coming towards them.
She thought she might have guessed who it was.
The wind was howling outside, and the weather was gloomy. It was very likely to rain. Shen Changshan looked at his daughter and saw that she was standing there without moving. "Ali, let's go."
"Dad, don't worry, someone else is coming."
Several people at the door cast their eyes towards the carriage at the same time. They had good vision and could see far, so they noticed from a distance that the coachman looked very familiar.
Shen Changshan asked: "Ali, isn't that Tianqing?"
He was still a little unsure and asked in confusion. Then he saw his wife and two sons nodded, which seemed to mean he was not mistaken.
"Then Master Pei is here too?"
"Ah."
The carriage stopped quickly, and a bony hand opened the curtain and came down. It was indeed Pei Yu.
"Uncle and aunt, I occasionally pass by here, and I don't know anyone here, so I'm here to bother you for a while."
The smile on Shen Changshan's face was a little stiff, and he thought to himself, it's been two years since I last saw Master Pei, and his aura has become more and more overwhelming.
