Chapter 183 If the relationship lasts (19)

Pei Ye opened his mouth and finally responded, "That's a good suggestion. I'm really bored from studying for a few days straight. Thank you, Sister Shi. I'll go to the study first."

"good."

Shi Jianli waved to Xianyue, "Let's go back."

Xianyue followed her and asked after a while with a smile, "Last time, young lady, you were thinking about how to reject someone dignifiedly and without hurting their feelings. The person you wanted to reject was Master Pei, right?"

"You guessed it right. As a reward, I'll make me a plate of Poria cocos cake tomorrow."

Xianyue was helpless, "Miss, how can anyone get rewarded for working?"

"I want to eat, can you make it for me?"

"Give."

…

In the study, after asking Shi Jianan to answer his questions, Pei Ye looked at him frequently.

Shi Jianan scraped the tea foam and said, "What do you want to say? Say it. I've seen you many times, Aye, you're not decisive enough."

"I am attracted to Sister Shi and would like to ask you to marry her." Pei Ye's heart trembled as he stood up and bowed respectfully. "Although I have no achievements now, I am confident that I can get a good ranking in the Spring Examination in two years."

"Pei Ye knows that six years ago my father proposed to you the idea of ​​marrying our children off, but you refused. At that time, I was young and inexperienced with love, so I never considered it. It was just my father's idea. Later, I realized my own feelings, but I had no achievements, so I never dared to bring it up again."

"Uncle, I have always topped the exams and will definitely meet your expectations."

In Duzhou, Pei Ye was confident that no one could compare to him, so he could concentrate on studying. Now that he has arrived in the capital, a more outstanding man has appeared in front of Qingmei, and he is undoubtedly panicked.

Yesterday, the servant passed by Shi Mansion and said when he returned that he saw Mingzhao again in front of the gate of Shi Mansion. Pei Ye came here today.

Shi Jianan put down his teacup and said, "I've had some suspicions since you came from Hezhou to Duzhou to celebrate Li'er's birthday."

"You're not decisive enough in matters of the heart, but that's not enough to overshadow your strengths. I can make the decision for Li'er, but only after obtaining her consent."

"If she agrees, I can naturally agree to your proposal."

Pei Ye immediately said, "I'll go ask Sister Shi right away."

"Go." Shi Jianan waved his hand, knowing that he would end up in failure, and shook his head in his heart.

If he had asked to stay and spend time with Li'er after her birthday party, there might have been a chance, but he went back and it was too late this year.

When Shi Jianli heard that Pei Ye was looking for her, she was not too surprised. After coming back and lying down for a while, she asked Lan Xing to clean her up and went out to meet him.

"Brother Pei Ye, what do you want from me?"

Pei Ye looked down at her, suppressed his anxiety and nervousness, and said, "I just mentioned to my uncle that I want to marry you. I wonder if you agree."

Shi Jianli shook her head, "Brother Pei Ye, I only think of you as a brother who grew up with me."

A huge sense of loss swept through his mind, and Pei Ye calmed himself down, "It's okay, sister Shi, you can try to treat me as a man pursuing you in the future."

"I have a favorite..."

Pei Ye panicked and interrupted her: "I suddenly remembered that there are some important things I haven't told my uncle. I'll go tell him. Sorry, sister, I'm leaving first."

After speaking quickly, Pei Ye took two steps back, turned around and left.

"I have someone I like, and his mother came to my house to propose." Shi Jianli didn't give him the chance to pretend not to know, and spoke loudly.

Pei Ye's back paused, he staggered around and stared at her quietly.

Shi Jianli's voice returned to normal: "So, Brother Pei Ye, I wish you can find your true love in the future."

Facing her serious eyes, Pei Ye remained silent for a long time, and finally forced a bitter smile, but was unable to say "OK".

He turned and walked towards the study in the front yard, told Shi Jiannan the result politely, and then said goodbye.

Shi Jianli sat on a bench beside the path, sighed, and tugged at Lanxing's sleeve, "Lanxing, I feel a little melancholy."

"Our girl is so nice, it's not surprising that Master Pei would like her. Master Pei is a good man who knows how to be polite, and he will let it go in the end."

As people close to their own girl, Lanxing and Xianyue never thought of matchmaking, even with Pei Ye, who had a deep affection for her. Serving the girl was their duty, and thinking about anything else was against the rules.

Until the girl has a clear intention, all men are just outsiders.

"You did a great job, young lady. You didn't mean that. So don't drag your feet and cause more trouble."

Shi Jianli looked at her with her hands on her face when she heard that. "Lanxing, I didn't realize you could preach so much."

Compared with Xianyue, Lanxing is more lively, but equally reliable.

"After all, I was taught by Mammy, so I can't let Mammy down."

"Okay, I'll say a few good words for you in front of Madam, so she can reward you well. I'm going to the main courtyard to have dinner. You can go find Xianyue and have dinner in the kitchen together."

"Okay, girl."

The day before the holiday, Shi Jianli was waiting outside the mansion early. When the carriage from the Anguo Mansion arrived, she went to the farm with Mingyuelin.

Yuan Wan was also in the carriage at this time.

Shi Jianli saw her, greeted her, and asked, "Last time, Sister Lin suggested that Sister Yuan stay in the capital for a while longer. How are Sister Yuan and Madam Yuan discussing this?"

"My mother agreed to let me stay. I'll go back after my cousins ​​and the others leave for their ancestral home to pay homage to their ancestors." Yuan Wan couldn't help but say happily, "I'll come visit you often in the future. Don't get tired of me."

"How could that be? I wish you would come and play with me more often."

They chatted and laughed all the way, and when they arrived at the farm, the farm manager came to greet them and took them to the stable.

Shi Jianli chose for a long time in the spacious stable and finally selected a chestnut horse.

She touched the horse's head. The horse was a little grumpy, so she asked someone to lead it out. After riding it for a while, the chestnut horse was completely calm towards her.

The bright red figure on the horse's back was so dazzling that it attracted the attention of many people near the horse farm.

Shi Jianli rode the horse back to its original position and smiled at Mingyuelin and Yuan Wan, "I like this one very much, so I chose it."

Ming Yuelin also chose a horse, climbed on top, and said to Yuan Wan, "Cousin, you should also choose one. How about we play polo today?"

Qi Yan Qi Yu and Lan Xing Xian Yue both play ball, and you can play for a long time with them.

"Okay." Yuan Wan chose a docile horse and got on it.

In fact, she had never ridden a horse at home. It was Mingyuelin who taught her how to ride a horse when she visited the Duke of Anguo's Mansion before.

After playing for half a day and having lunch at the farm, the three of them walked along the farm and chatted.

When it was almost time to go back, I saw a white horse galloping towards me.

Ming Yuelin stood on tiptoe and looked over. "It seems to be my elder brother."

I really don't miss any opportunity to see Sister Li.

The white horse gradually slowed down and finally stopped not far from the three people, and the figures were clear.

It is indeed a clear return.
