Listening to Xiao Yunchen and Li Sisi quarreling along the way, Li Nian's sleepiness disappeared.
After returning home, Li Sisi was so angry that she left Xiao Yunchen and went to find Li Nian.
"It's rare that Xiao Yunchen is at home. Don't just be angry. Do more tasks with him. The time for him to go on a business trip is getting closer. We need to save up enough health points as soon as possible." Li Nian advised her while pouring tea for her.
Li Sisi drank the tea in one gulp, put her arms on the table, and her eyes turned red with anger.
"Why were men in ancient times so selfish? They had to be the boss in everything. What were we women? Just their appendages?"
"You said it yourself, he's an ancient man, so it's natural for him to be chauvinistic," Li Nian said calmly, "but you don't have to take it so seriously. Just treat him as the client's boss. If you want to get his order, you have to be accommodating and tolerant."
"I can't stand it, okay?!" Li Sisi's eyes were red with anger and mist rose. "He said it nicely before, saying he's my husband and that even if I do something wrong, he'll solve it for me. But now he's telling me I can't do this or that!"
Li Sisi turned her head and glared at Li Nian, shocked and angry, "Now he's still telling me about the three obediences and four virtues of women? Ha, does he think he's the emperor? Does he want three harems and six courtyards?"
"Although he cannot have three palaces and six courtyards, he can have three wives and four concubines," Li Nian said calmly.
Although it hurts to say this right now, it's the truth. It's better to face the facts clearly than to dream.
"Have you forgotten our original purpose? To save enough lifespan to leave this place. Go back now, be patient, and complete the mission well. That's the most important thing."
"I don't want to," Li Sisi curled her lips, "Anyway, I've already saved enough to be fifty, and there are still two months before he goes on a business trip, so I can just save whatever I want."
At this point, she said with regret: "The system said that we can only save up to a hundred years old at most, and the extra time does not count!"
"Why haven't we traveled to a world of immortal cultivation? In another world, I could live as long as the heavens and the earth!"
Li Nian glanced at the health value displayed by his system, 389 days.
Well, she's the only one lacking health points...
"Madam, Madam, the eldest son is back."
Outside the house, just as the maid finished her words, Xiao Yunyu's wanton mocking voice was heard: "Why, I'm going back to my room now, and I still need to be informed?"
"Brother, you treated your sister-in-law like that at the banquet yesterday. Don't you remember it at all? Even if Nian Nian has a good temper, you can't bully her like this!"
Li Sisi stared outside with wide eyes and saw Li Nian stand up and prepare to open the door.
She quickly stepped forward and grabbed her: "Why let him in? Let him reflect on it outside. He treated you like that yesterday, didn't he even apologize?"
Li Nian said calmly, "That's not necessary."
"Why is it unnecessary? How many times has he been home since you married him? He..."
Li Nian held her hand, frowned, and said, "Sisi, you're getting into the role."
Li Sisi was stunned.
Li Nian's cold eyes were condensed and serious, and he said seriously: "Sisi, think about it carefully, what is our original intention?"
After that, she pulled Li Sisi to the door, opened it, pushed her out, and said calmly, "Go back!"
Xiao Yunyu frowned and watched Li Nian kick Li Sisi out of the door, but he was thinking about what Li Sisi had just said.
Seeing Li Sisi leave, he walked up to Li Nian and asked, "Are you still angry with me for what happened yesterday?"
Li Nian smiled calmly and said, "I have some bad memories of Chi Shui. You don't know about them, so I can't blame you. Besides, the situation that day did seem easy to be misunderstood. As long as my husband believes me, that's all."
She raised her charming face and smiled obediently: "I'm not angry."
Xiao Yunyu narrowed his eyes.
Logically speaking, he should be happy with her obedient attitude.
But I couldn’t explain why, I always felt like something was missing.
Xiao Yunyu felt inexplicably unhappy, his jawline tensed, and he couldn't figure out where the confusion and depression in his heart came from.
Just ignore it.
He raised his hand and touched Li Nian's head, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Well, good boy."
————
Li Sisi came out of Shuixieju, and kept thinking about Li Nian's words in her mind.
"Sisi, you're into the role."
"Do you remember our original intention?"
What was their original intention? Wasn't it to save enough lifespans to leave here together and find a small town to live happily?
She never forgot!
Isn't it just about leaving here and breaking up with Chenchen...?
Li Sisi's mind suddenly stopped, and she broke off all ties with Chenchen. They each got married and had nothing to do with each other anymore.
This is the future of her and Chenchen.
But……
She couldn't bear to do that.
No wonder Nian Nian said she was immersed in the role. She really put herself into the role of Chen Fu and forgot that she was just a fake who had taken over someone else's role.
She grew up in an orphanage and her academic performance was not very good, not as good as Shen Fu, who came from a scholarly family and was virtuous.
If the real Shen Fu married Chen Chen, he would be satisfied, right?
In the original novel, Xiao Yunchen has been silently protecting the heroine, and his wife has also been silently following Xiao Yunchen, accompanying him from being the second son of a marquisate to becoming a powerful official.
If these plots happened to her, Li Sisi, she wouldn't be able to do it.
Therefore, Li Sisi is not Chen Fu after all, and she is destined to leave.
