Su Zhihui often came to visit Chen Li, and the Shen family's doorman had known her for a long time. He originally wanted to go in and report, but thinking that Miss Su had a good relationship with his own lady, he took people in.
When she arrived outside the reception room, she heard some noise inside. Su Zhihui's eyes suddenly lit up because she recognized Shen Qi'an's voice from the noisy voices inside.
The servant asked them to wait outside the door for a while while he went in to inform them, but he didn't dare to bring the person in without informing them.
"Master and Madam, Master Su and Miss Su are here, looking for the young lady."
Shen Changshan looked at Shen Li, "Ali, if someone comes to see you, should we invite them in or take them to your yard?"
Dad was worried that they would see the corn, but now it has become like this, no one will recognize what it is.
Chen Li looked at her fourth brother, not sure who he was looking for.
He looked at the servant and said, "Please bring him in."
"yes."
We were originally in the dining room, but since we had guests, it would be inappropriate for them to stay in the restaurant, so we led them to the reception room and decided to eat corn rice there too, as there was plenty of space here.
When Su Heng and Su Zhihui came in, they saw them sitting in the side hall with bowls in front of them, and they seemed to be eating something.
Su Heng paused slightly. Did he disturb them?
"Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen, my sister and I are sorry for disturbing you today."
Shen Changshan laughed and said, "Don't bother me. You are friends of A Li and Qi An. It's not a bother. Come over often when you have time. It will be more lively with more people."
"Okay, I'll definitely come more often to discuss academic matters with Brother Shen when I'm free."
"this…"
Shen Changshan looked at Shen Qi'an and Shen Li. He didn't know whether to tell Su Heng about this.
Su Heng naturally noticed their exchange of glances. He had long taken in the scene in the room, and he also saw the things in the middle of the round table and in the bowls in front of them.
The thing is the color of corn, but there are some differences in appearance. The size is uneven, some are thick and some are thin.
"Ali, Qi An, take Master Su and Miss Su to sit in the main hall. It's a bit messy here."
"good."
Shen Qi'an stood up and said, "Brother Su, Miss Su, please come this way."
Shen Changshan looked at her a few more times. A Li hadn't stood up yet. When did the fourth brother become so anxious? If his classmates and friends were not here, he would almost think it was because of Miss Su.
Seeing this, Chen Li stood up and went over to take Su Zhihui aside, while the others continued in the side hall.
"Ahui, why did you come to see me today?"
Su Zhihui followed behind her, with a handkerchief in her hand twisted into a mess. She was a little hesitant and embarrassed to say it out loud.
Chen Li took her to sit in the garden. The Shen family's garden was planted with some flowers and trees, as well as some vegetables. The garden was divided into two parts, with flowers and trees and vegetables each occupying half.
"Ahui, just say whatever you want to say. There's no one else here."
Su Zhihui nodded and said shyly: "Ah, Ah Li, my eldest brother said that Fourth Brother Shen dropped out of the academy. Why?"
Chen Li had long guessed that she came because of Fourth Brother's matter. After all, apart from Fourth Brother's matters, she rarely acted so shy.
"You can't say he's dropping out. Fourth brother has a better choice. A scholar can't do both. Besides, the Imperial College will be of greater help to him now. So, he can only drop out of Lushan Academy first."
It’s not that he doesn’t want to graduate, but the time he has spent in the academy is not enough. Or maybe he can graduate from the academy if he passes the imperial examination.
"Imperial College?"
Su Zhihui's eyes widened as she muttered these three words. It wasn't that she looked down on the Shen family, but it was very difficult to get a place in the Imperial College. The Shen family was quite wealthy, but this amount of money was not enough to buy a place in the Imperial College.
The Su family can only bring one person to the Imperial College, so naturally it is not the eldest brother's turn.
"Ali, have you been deceived?"
Looking at her face full of worry, it looked like they had been deceived.
"No, Ah Hui, this quota is real."
Su Zhihui nodded, not quite believing it. Chen Li was not the kind of person who spoke without a clear purpose. If she could be so sure, it must be a fortuitous encounter.
"That's good. I thought something happened to your fourth brother." Su Zhihui's face flushed and she spoke hesitantly, obviously embarrassed.
Shen Li nodded, "I understand, so you are not here to see me today."
There was a hint of depression on his face when he spoke, "Ever since you fell in love with my fourth brother, I have been ranked behind him."
Su Zhihui's face turned even redder when she heard her blunt words, and she quickly explained, "No, Ah Li, don't be angry. You were in front of your fourth brother."
Afraid that she wouldn't believe me, I almost raised my finger and swore.
Chen Li quickly stopped her hand, "Okay, I'm just teasing you, I'm not angry."
"real?"
"Well, let me tell you something."
Su Zhihui sat up straight in an instant, "You say."
"I'm engaged."
After one breath, two breaths, and more than thirty breaths without any response, Shen Li pushed her arm.
Su Zhihui came back to her senses and asked in a daze, "Ali, what did you just say?"
"Are you engaged?"
"Why so sudden?"
"Who is it?"
"When did it happen?"
"Do I know him? Or have I seen him before?"
Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered that there were two young men with outstanding temperament in the side hall just now. Could it be one of them?
Hearing her series of questions, Chen Li knew that she was stunned by this sudden news.
