Chapter 88 The Time Traveler Who Became a Stepping Stone 1
Su Li transferred the little phoenix from the Qiankun space to the system space. Looking at the aggrieved little phoenix in front of him, he said seriously: "You divine beasts all have inheritance. When you have inherited memories, you should know your own name. There is no need to give it a name."
Seeing that her sister was unwilling to give her a name, the little phoenix lowered her head with wet eyes.
Su Li: ...Who did you learn this from?
It must be said that Su Li was very impressed by this and immediately said, "Then let's pick one first. How about calling it Feng Xi?"
"Feng Xi, I like it, hehe... I have a name too."
He was feeling so aggrieved like a poor little thing just now, but now he is as happy as a 200-pound fat man.
Su Tuantuan rolled over and jumped with Little Phoenix: "I have a name too, we all have names!"
Su Li looked at them helplessly and sat on the recliner to rest.
"A-Li, take a look at this young man. What do you think? He's two years older than you and already a scholar. Your father and I both think he's quite good!"
As soon as Su Li opened his eyes, he saw the woman in front of him smiling gently.
She was holding a portrait of a man who looked decent.
Su Li had not yet accepted the memory and did not know what was going on, so he did not respond and accepted the memory first.
She sorted out her memories in her sea of consciousness and understood the current situation. The original owner was twelve years old, and her parents were looking for a husband for her.
The man in the portrait was the original owner's blind date and also her short-lived fiancé.
Now that he knew the situation, Su Li certainly didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore, "Mom, I don't want to get married so early."
"A-Li, didn't we agree on this? You're already twelve years old. Others, your age, have already been engaged. If you don't get married soon, all the good men will be picked up by others."
The master had painstakingly searched for this young man for a long time before picking him out, and he was really good in every aspect. In order to let his daughter see him first, the master even hired someone to draw a portrait of him.
Seeing that Su's mother was still trying to persuade him, Su Li had no choice but to say, "Mom, go and do your work first. I'll think about it."
Although Su's mother wanted to persuade her again, her daughter had been very opinionated since she was young, so she could only let her think about it first.
After Su's mother left, Su Li watched the entire plot again.
This is a story about a reborn man who relied on a prophet to overcome all obstacles and eventually became a powerful official.
The original owner, Su Li, was a strong woman from the 23rd century. She was transported to the Su family due to an accidental car accident.
There are only two children in the Su family. The original owner has an older brother, so there are only one son and one daughter in the family. Su Fugui and his wife love both children very much.
The original owner was very cute and very smart. She showed amazing business talent at a young age, which made Su Fugui love her even more.
Although merchants in this era were rich, their status was very low. Su Fugui looked at the smart and clever original owner and always felt sorry in his heart that such an outstanding child as his daughter was born into his family.
He didn't want his daughter to marry into a merchant family when she grew up. Although they would have enough food and drink, any official could order them around.
In order to find a husband worthy of his daughter, Su Fugui started to look for candidates for a son-in-law when the original owner was only a few years old.
But they were just a small merchant family, and it was not easy to find a man with a good family background and good character. He was also reluctant to let his daughter become a concubine in a wealthy family.
The original owner hadn't found a husband by the age of twelve. In this era when marriage is expected at the age of fifteen, it's rare for someone to be unengaged at this age. But the original owner wasn't in a hurry; she didn't want to get engaged so early.
Su Fugui and his wife tried to persuade her many times, and the original owner couldn't bear to see her parents working so hard for her, so she finally nodded and agreed to go.
Seeing that his daughter agreed, Su Fugui worked even harder, fearing that she would suddenly change her mind.
He knew his daughter had been bright and clever since she was young, far more intelligent than his son. It was a pity that his daughter was born of the wrong gender, otherwise, with her intelligence, she would surely have been able to get him the top scorer in the imperial examination.
Because his daughter is smart, Su Fugui doesn't want to let her down and wants to find the best for her.
After searching for a long time, they finally chose the Zhao family. Although the Zhao family was from a farming family and there were two scholars in the family, their family had already split up long ago.
The one Su Fugui fell in love with was the eldest son of the family, Su Heng. He was two years older than the original owner and was already a scholar at the age of fourteen.
He is handsome and has good character. His parents are kind people. Most importantly, he does not look down on businessmen.
Su Fugui knew that his daughter was very ambitious, so he secretly asked someone to draw a portrait of Zhao Heng and let the original owner see it first.
The original owner was very satisfied after seeing the portrait. She felt that she would get married here eventually. This man was not bad and looked the type she liked. As long as he was willing, she had no objection.
Su Fugui asked someone to find Zhao Heng and tell him the news. Zhao Heng had met the original owner once before and had some impression of her. Su's father was also a well-known philanthropist.
Su Heng was very satisfied with this marriage. Not long after, he sent a matchmaker and his family elders to propose marriage, and the marriage between the two was quickly settled.
In the second year after the original owner came of age, and one month before their marriage, Zhao Heng was trampled to death by a cow while saving Zhao Wen, the second wife.
Zhao Heng's parents were kind-hearted. Although they were sad about their son's death, they did not want to burden the original owner, so they let the original owner marry on his own.
The original owner was already sixteen at the time, and it was already difficult to find a husband. Now with the reputation of being a jinx, it was even more difficult for her to find a husband. Moreover, Su Fugui had high standards and only educated people would be accepted. After searching for a long time, he still couldn't find anyone he liked.
At this time, Zhao Wen found Zhao Heng's parents and said that his eldest brother died because of saving him. He wanted to repay his eldest brother's life-saving grace, shoulder the responsibility of both houses, and marry the original owner for his eldest brother.
Su Li: I think your elder brother’s coffin lid will not be able to hold him down.
The first wife had only one child, Zhao Heng. After he passed away, the couple had no hope in life. They thought that if they had a grandson, they would have hope in their lives.
The couple hesitated for a few days, and finally took Zhao Wendeng to the Su family and told Su Fugui about this idea.
Of course, the Su family's parents disagreed. How would their daughter cope with the future if she had to shoulder two wives? It wasn't like she couldn't get married.
But the reborn man was eloquent and promised to be good to the original owner and never let her down.
At this time, Zhao Wencai was only fourteen years old, but he was already a student, two years younger than the original owner.
Although he is not as good as his elder brother, he is also a rare outstanding young man. Seeing that he spoke so sincerely, Su's parents were also moved.
Although his own daughter is of course perfect in his eyes, it is really not easy to find another young man as outstanding as Zhao Heng.
Finally, the couple discussed it and decided to ask the original owner for his opinion.
Although the original owner thought that shouldering two wives sounded unreliable, she didn't need to rely on a man to live!
After all, in modern times where monogamy is the norm, one cannot expect a man to be obedient and law-abiding all his life. In ancient times when having three wives and four concubines was legally permitted, that was out of the question!
She didn't want to get married in this ancient time, but she had to.
Rather than marrying a man she cannot control, she might as well marry a man who is just a tool!
If she marries this man, she only needs to part ways with him after giving birth to the child and live her own life behind closed doors. Isn't that wonderful!
