The next morning, Baoer felt much better, so he thought about going to pay his respects to his parents and comfort them.
After all, they all loved him very much. Ever since his engagement was broken off, his father always felt that it was because of him that he was broken off, and he blamed himself very much.
"My daughter pays respects to my parents." Baoer entered the main room and was led in by the maid.
"Bao'er is here. How is your health? Is everything okay?"
"My daughter is fine, thank you for your concern, mom and dad."
Lin Anhe said with a guilty look on his face, "Bao'er, it's all Daddy's fault for betrothing you to such a family. I..."
"Dad, I don't blame you. I agreed to it at the time. I just didn't expect them to be so shameless as to break the contract."
"Alas, it's my father's fault that I can't seek justice for you."
Seeing her father's guilty look, Baoer said mischievously, "Dad, it's okay. If you want to compensate your daughter, please give her some more money. I want to go out for a walk."
After hearing this, Lin's mother agreed and said, "No problem, I'll give you some more money later. Have fun when you go out."
"And your mother and your father have already discussed it. They will pay you a year's single tax, and then they will carefully choose a husband for you."
"Well, thank you, Mom and Dad. You're both so kind to your daughter..." Bao'er said coquettishly, once again thanking the current national system for allowing her to choose the one she likes. She doesn't have to go through the blind marriages of the Qing Dynasty in her previous life, where women were treated as slaves and not as human beings. Women were also required to learn the Three Obediences and Four Virtues. If that were the case, it would be suffocating.
After getting the money, Baoer took Cherry and Orange out to play. They first went to the bookstore that was their favorite place to go in their memory and bought two storybooks of their favorite type.
I went to a jewelry store that I used to visit often. Although I don’t have much money at home, the jewelry here are relatively affordable and not very expensive, so I can afford it.
She chose a silver hairpin for herself and her mother, and bought a ring for her father, then took two maids to a teahouse she often visited to rest.
The teahouse is beautifully decorated, with each table separated by bamboo partitions. You can enjoy tea and snacks inside. It's a popular spot for the general public.
In the middle of the teahouse, there are various performances by men and women.
For example, one moment a man plays the piano, the next moment a woman sings, and then another man speaks.
As soon as Baoer entered, she took two maids to find a secluded place to sit down, ordered a pot of tea, two plates of snacks and fruits, and watched the performance while talking.
After Bao'er finished her tea, she was about to return home with her two maids. However, when she turned the corner and went out, she ran into the original owner's ex-fiancé, who only brought one servant with him.
Seeing Baoer, he walked over and said impatiently, "Lin Baoer, you don't need to look for me anymore. I am now married to the princess as a concubine. You are not worthy of me."
Bao Er rolled her eyes cutely when she heard it. "Tsk, a man who doesn't love himself is like rotten cabbage, and he's just a concubine, not a concubine. Who cares about you? Can't you see that I'm about to leave?"
The original owner's ex-fiancé said proudly, "Don't think I don't know you came to see me on purpose. You'd better stay still and not come to me. Don't forget that you will be an adult in a month. If you still haven't found someone to marry, I don't know how many times you will have to pay the single tax with your family's financial situation."
Bao Er was so angry, what kind of person is that? Who cares about that rotten person?
"You think I'm interested in you? You're just a jerk. What a joke! I wouldn't want you even if I didn't marry. What's more, I already have someone I want to marry."
After saying that, he glanced around and saw a man sitting about two or three meters away from him. He looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old.
The man was handsome, tall and slender, his figure as straight as a bamboo. His skin was as white as snow, his eyebrows were sharp, his eyes were bright, and his handsome face was adorned with a pair of peach blossom eyes with thick, dense eyelashes. His lips were red, his teeth were white, and the faint dimples on each cheek made him look even more handsome despite being indistinguishable between male and female.
Perhaps because he comes from a relatively well-off family, he looks delicate and tender. He carries an air of nobility and pride, truly a proud young man.
Baoer swore in her two lifetimes that she had never seen such a delicate and noble man in real life, although he was a little smaller.
He was probably in a bad mood, and he seemed a little impatient. When he saw Baoer looking at him, he raised his eyebrows slightly.
He was now watching this farce nonchalantly, and many people in the teahouse were also looking over here.
"Did you see him? It's him," Baoer said, pointing at the handsome and noble man.
"Who are you kidding? How could you possibly have the ability to marry such an outstanding man?" The ex-fiancé thought to himself that this man was obviously no ordinary person, how could he fall for an ordinary woman like Li Baoer.
Bao Er said impatiently, "If you don't believe it, forget it."
The handsome man saw Baoer pointing at him and became curious. He was just bored when he saw Baoer pointing at him. He also saw the girl rolling her eyes at the man.
He walked over curiously and asked, "What's wrong? Do you have something to ask me?"
Baoer smiled awkwardly and said, "Haha, nothing." What's the matter? You're still my little master.
Baoer's ex-fiancé sneered and said, "I heard that you are going to marry her. With her ordinary looks, she is not worthy of you at all, don't you think?"
"Hmm? It's not your decision whether I'm worthy or not." The man's voice was a little hoarse, and I don't know if it was because of the voice change or what, but it made him sound more mature and sounded very nice.
