HCB Chapter 393 Proposal
Chapter 393 Proposal
It was almost dark when Li Shiyun returned to the Li Mansion.
However, as soon as she entered Li's Mansion, she was stopped by Yu Shichang.
"Cousin, where have you been? Why are you back so late?"
When Li Shiyun saw Yu Shichang, her face instantly darkened.
"What are you here for?"
Yu Shichang: "Cousin, I'm here to apologize to you. We've been childhood sweethearts for so many years. Don't you know how I feel about you?"
Li Shiyun: "We didn't have much affection before, at most it was just family affection. Now that you have a lover, I will naturally help my cousin."
Yu Shichang: "What sweetheart? Xiao Cui can only be considered a concubine. Only you are worthy of being the principal wife."
Li Shiyun said expressionlessly: "My cousin hasn't even married yet, but he already took in a concubine. It's obvious that I'm not in his eyes or heart. I naturally can't marry someone who doesn't have me in his heart."
Yu Shichang: "Why not? You are in my heart and eyes."
"Just forgive me, okay?"
Li Shiyun: "Cousin, you know my temper. Once I make a decision, it is impossible to change it." She was about to leave.
Yu Shichang was naturally unwilling to let her go like this, so he hurriedly stopped her again.
"Cousin, I beg you, okay? I promise you, there will only be you and Xiao Cui in my life, and there will never be other women in the future."
Li Shiyun looked at Yu Shichang with a sullen face. She used to think she understood her cousin, but now it seems that she really didn't understand him at all.
Thanks to this incident, otherwise she would have really fallen into his hands in this life.
"Cousin, if you try to stop me again, I will call the servants."
Yu Shichang: "Cousin, can you give me another chance?"
Li Shiyun: "Someone, kick the cousin out."
"It's Miss!"
"Cousin, cousin, can you give me another chance, please?"
As Yu Shichang spoke, he was carried out by the servants.
As soon as Li Shiyun walked into the yard, the servants hurried over.
"Miss, the master wants to see you!"
When Li Shiyun heard that her father wanted to see her, she couldn't help but become nervous.
"Did Dad say anything?"
"This servant doesn't know either."
Li Shiyun sighed, then hurried towards her father's yard.
When Li Shiyun entered, Lord Li was writing calligraphy.
"My daughter greets my father!"
Lord Li glanced at his daughter and put down the pen in his hand.
"I heard that you went to the palace to teach the eldest lady how to paint?"
Upon hearing this, Li Shiyun immediately said with an unnatural expression: "It's not really teaching, it's just guiding the young lady."
"She is young and likes big sisters very much!"
Lord Li: "Well, if the young lady asks you to go, you naturally can't go."
"But you have to remember one thing. You must keep your distance from the young masters, especially the eldest young master."
"After all, you are of similar age. If you are together, it will cause unnecessary gossip."
"What kind of place is a palace? We can't afford it, and dad doesn't intend to let you marry into it."
Li Shiyun: "My daughter knows!"
Lord Li: "Dad will ask the matchmaker to find a few more for you. You should choose carefully. Marriage is a lifelong event and you must not be careless."
Li Shiyun didn't expect her father to say this, and she was naturally deeply moved.
The next day, she came to the palace as usual.
The eldest son was a very stubborn person, and she was afraid that he would go to the Li Mansion and cause trouble again, which would lead to more trouble.
There are only nineteen days left, she can just endure it.
The princess was an extremely kind person, and she believed that nothing would happen to her while she was in the palace.
When Hanhan saw Li Shiyun, his expression instantly changed.
"You're late today!"
Li Shiyun: "Didn't the eldest master say that he would not allow me to be your personal maid?"
Hanhan: "You are too late. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Li Shiyun: "It rained yesterday, and the road was muddy and hard to walk on. I got up half an hour early!"
Hanhan: "Forget it, I forgive you."
Li Shiyun curled her lips. She was already used to his unreasonable demands.
Hanhan brought her to the studio, and the two of them competed in painting together.
Hanhan competed with her to see who could paint a landscape the fastest and most vividly.
Li Shiyun couldn't understand why he liked the competition so much. Drawing was just for fun, but he had to be so nervous.
But since he brought it up, she naturally had no choice but to stick with him to the end.
In the princess's courtyard, Jiang Sujin couldn't help but curl her lips after hearing the servant's report.
"It seems our boss really likes this Miss Li."
Shen Yanfeng: "Then we can just propose marriage to the Li family. We'll see after the Chinese New Year and we'll have a grandson the year after next."
Jiang Sujin hesitated for a while and said, "Let the matchmaker propose marriage first, and then see what the other party thinks. Don't just come up and propose marriage, making it impossible for the other party to refuse even if they want to."
Shen Yanfeng: "He still wants to refuse?"
Jiang Sujin: "Of course, Master Li is not a person who curries favor with the rich and powerful."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng glanced at her sideways and said, "You are just different to him."
Jiang Sujin: "I admire people with good character. He is an honest and upright person, worthy of my admiration."
Shen Yanfeng: "You still admire me? Look at what you say. Was it me who stopped you from coming?"
Jiang Sujin's eyes widened when she heard this: "What? What are you talking about?"
"How many years have passed? Do you still remember this?"
Shen Yanfeng said with an unnatural expression: "Forget it, since he is not someone who clings to power, let's not force him."
Jiang Sujin: "Don't make a fuss. We are doing this for the children."
Shen Yanfeng: "Is it for the child or for yourself?"
Jiang Sujin's face darkened instantly when she heard this: "You can think whatever you want, I won't pay attention to you."
Having said that, she stood up and left with a gloomy face.
Shen Yanfeng took a deep breath and then looked at Jiang Sujin's leaving back.
"You take care of it. I won't get involved. Is that okay?"
Jiang Sujin did not stop after hearing his words.
But she really asked the matchmaker to propose marriage. After all, Li Shiyun broke off the engagement, and there would definitely be many people proposing marriage to her.
For Hanhan, she can't fall behind others.
The marriage of these girls has always been arranged by their parents and matchmakers, so they have to follow the procedures.
However, in fact, just as Jiang Sujin expected, Lord Li really declined.
People say that my daughter has just broken off an engagement and has no plans to get engaged for the time being.
However, even as he said this, matchmakers still came to propose marriage in an endless stream.
After hearing the matchmaker's report, Jiang Sujin realized that Lord Li still remembered the beating he suffered that year, so he didn't want to have anything to do with the palace.
