Cai Xianxin thought for a long time and suddenly burst into laughter.
"No wonder my mother dissuaded me from pursuing this matter at home. Looking at the girl from the other family, I didn't believe what my mother said at first. Now it seems that I was just wishful thinking."
His mother had lived many more years longer than him, and she had probably seen through Su Yunruo and the Su family's intentions from the very beginning, so she tried to persuade them.
But he was very stubborn and even went to the Su family to find Princess Ping'an to ask her the reason without any courtesy. Now thinking about it, he was too abrupt and reckless.
The reason why his mother stopped dissuading him later was probably because she just wanted him to experience it himself so that he could wake up.
"I understand what Miss Su is thinking." Cai Xianxin bowed again, "I'm sorry to ask again. If Miss Su had no intention at the beginning, she should have expressed her feelings earlier."
He is a stubborn person, and although he likes reading, he does not have the kind-hearted heart like others.
Unless you get a clear rejection, you will believe that you still have a chance.
And if there is a chance, he won't give up.
"I'm ashamed to say this." Su Yunruo was a little embarrassed. "Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmakers' words. As children, we shouldn't think too much about it. I was wavering between my own feelings and my filial piety to my parents, and it was difficult to make a decision."
"As for Master Cai, I thought that if I declined several times, Master Cai would probably feel that he had lost face or understand the reason."
But I never thought...
"I was not firm enough at the time, which caused Mr. Cai to be distressed for a long time. It is my fault." Su Yunruo bowed apologetically.
I see.
Cai Xianxin felt relieved after talking about the matter. "It is impossible for a child to repay his parents' kindness no matter how hard he tries. It is natural for Miss Su to attach so much importance to filial piety and she should not be blamed."
"And at that time, I felt like I had to go back to the old ways. I got stuck in a dead end and ended up making things difficult for Miss Su..."
It even forced the Su family to say that they needed to delay marriage.
etc?
If you just want to reject him, just saying it's not suitable will be fine. There are always such things when children are first meeting each other for marriage. It is very common. There is no need to say such things.
After all, once such words were spread, no one would come to the Su family to discuss marriage, at least in the next few years, and Su Yunruo's marriage would be delayed.
There is only one possibility that could make Su Yunruo like this.
That means she has someone she likes in her heart, but she can't say it out loud.
The Lord Anmin has a title, the Princess Pingan has a high status, and Su Wenxuan also has a bright future, and is someone who can make Su Yunruo speechless...
Cai Xianxin suddenly thought of someone.
"Thank you, Mr. Cai, for your understanding." Su Yunruo also breathed a sigh of relief and bowed again.
Cai Xianxin's thoughts were pulled back, "Ms. Su, you're welcome."
After a brief pause, Cai Xianxin finally spoke, "It's a bit rash to say something, but if I don't say it, I feel uncomfortable with it weighing on my heart."
"Mr. Cai, please feel free to speak."
Today seemed to be the day when all misunderstandings were completely cleared up, and any rash words would be forgiven.
"I am a straightforward person, and I have many things to say that I cannot help but express. Although I may offend people or cause mistakes, I am calm and have no regrets. Miss Su may seem straightforward, but she is actually very thoughtful and considerate."
Cai Xianxin said, "Such a temperament may seem very good to outsiders, but for the women themselves, it often causes a lot of grievances."
"In my opinion, it's best to say whatever you want to say. No matter what the result is, you should not leave any regrets for yourself, and avoid regrets in the future."
"Miss Su is busy with things, so I won't bother you any more. Goodbye."
After saying this, Cai Xianxin bowed deeply, turned around and left.
It took Su Yunruo a long time to come back to her senses. She just bowed to Cai Xianxin's back which was already walking away, and then got on the carriage.
The carriage moved slowly forward, but Su Yunruo seemed to be thinking about something.
My mind was full of what Cai Xianxin had just said.
Don't leave any regrets, and avoid regrets in the future.
Cai Xianxin obviously guessed something and was encouraging her.
but……
Should I say it out loud? Su Yunruo clenched the handkerchief in her hand.
After saying goodbye, Cai Xianxin went straight home.
The results were announced today, and he had done quite well. He should go back and report the good news. He should also let his father give him some guidance so that he can show his talents in the palace examination in the near future.
The sun is shining brightly today, the grass and trees are thriving, and spring is in the air.
The beginning of the year is in spring, and he absolutely cannot waste this golden time. He must make great plans while he is still young.
As for marriage and stuff...
Just go with the flow!
Cai Xianxin raised his chin slightly and quickened his pace. - According to the court system, the wedding leave for officials is usually only nine days, which means it will last a long time.
On the tenth day, He Yanxiu should have gotten up early in the morning to attend court as scheduled, and after having breakfast at home, he should go to the Ministry of Revenue to work.
Su Yujin had already found out the time when He Yanxiu would go to court, so she woke up early that day and asked He Yanxiu to get up.
"It's still early." He Yanxiu did not stand up, but instead held Su Yujin in his arms.
"It's getting late. It's still dark in the morning and your walking speed is limited. If you are late for court, not only will the emperor blame you, but I'm afraid others will laugh at you too." Su Yujin urged.
Seeing this, He Yanxiu simply told the truth, "I submitted a memorial yesterday, claiming illness and asking for a salary, and the emperor has already agreed, so it's still early to get up now."
Su Yujin, "..."
Being fascinated by beauty! This is something He Yanxiu could really do!
"You look so energetic, how can you look sick at all?" Su Yujin said unhappily.
"How could it be?" He Yanxiu placed Su Yujin's hand on his chest. "My husband has been anxious and sleepless these past few days. As a doctor, how could you not see it?"
I didn't really notice the panic and insomnia, but I did notice the shamelessness.
It would be hard for the emperor to believe him if he asked for sick leave at this time.
Su Yujin complained in her heart, but she couldn't stand He Yanxiu's coquettish behavior at the moment, so she just let him do what he wanted.
However, He Yanxiu was not a person who completely ignored government affairs. After taking three days of sick leave, he went to and from the office as usual.
He never came late or left early, but he always arrived at the last minute and was the first to rush out of the Ministry of Revenue when the office was dismissed.
As for invitations from others to social events, I politely declined them all.
Everyone was very secretive about it, and no one insisted on it.
The sweet and sweet days passed by so quickly that it was mid-March in the blink of an eye.
The grass is growing, the birds are singing, the flowers are blooming, and the spring scenery is pleasant.
The ceremony of enthroning Concubine Shu as the Queen was held as planned. The Emperor and the Empress Dowager were present in person, and all officials came to pay homage. The concubines kowtowed to the emperor, and a grand banquet was held in the harem for three days, inviting the ladies of the capital to enter the palace and kowtow to the emperor.
Chapter 517: There are still 5 hours left before the ban can be lifted. The rocking car has been changed beyond recognition. I am so upset...
