Besides, she didn't know where else she could find a suitable candidate after going down the mountain.
No, the time allotted by the imperial court for the marriage has already passed.
When she came down the mountain, in addition to being fined, she was also beaten with a cane.
Now that she is all alone, if she is beaten with a cane and manages to survive, how will she survive after that?
With the weather so hot and no one helping to treat the wound, it's a dead end.
Another question is, how will she deal with Xue Mengyu's revenge?
Zhao Xi, whose mind was racing with these thoughts, silently followed Chi Yu outside.
When she came out, she saw the thin man named Liu Qingshan walking towards her with a determined look in his eyes.
After thinking for a moment, she took three steps forward and stopped.
The fish in the pond turned around and saw this, and said to Liu Qingshan:
"Zhaoxi is a girl after all, it's not good for you to talk away from the crowd."
"Look, that spot is pretty good. Keep your voices down, outsiders won't hear you."
As she spoke, she pointed to the corner of the west wing storeroom near the backyard.
Everyone can see it there; it won't ruin Zhaoxi's reputation.
Also, because of the distance and dim lighting, they can keep their voices down so that others can't hear them.
Liu Qingshan felt a little nervous, but when he thought of what Chi Yu had said during the day, he was instantly energized.
When he and Zhao Xi arrived at the location Chi Yu had mentioned, they stopped.
He took a deep breath, glanced quickly at Zhao Xi, and then said:
"Miss, my name is Liu Qingshan, and I am thirty-two years old."
I know I'm getting old.
But I genuinely want to marry a woman with whom I can live a good life.
If you marry me, as long as you don't do anything detrimental to Chijia'ao, I'll listen to you no matter what.
Let me first introduce myself. I have no parents above me and no children below me.
Of course, I don't have any brothers or sisters either.
If you marry me, it means that in the future, if we have anything, we won't have any relatives to help us.
But the advantage is that you don't have to serve your in-laws, nor do you have to deal with your sister-in-law.
Liu Qingshan keenly noticed that when he said these words, the girl in front of him frowned slightly.
His heart sank, and he realized that his chances were slim.
But he couldn't help thinking about what Chi Yu had said during the day about finding him a wife, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue talking.
"Now that I own a house, I'm financially secure and have no family to worry about."
In addition, there was some money, and some food and water were also stockpiled.
If we get married, you'll be in charge of the household.
However, I have one more request: you can't be like my ex-wife, moving all our belongings back to her parents' home.
By the way, the people here all make a living by hunting.
I'm not very good at hunting, but as long as nothing unexpected happens, I can still make a living.
Xiaoyu said that once her workshop grows bigger, she will also hire people like us who don't share the same surname.
At that time, I will also have the opportunity to work in the workshop, earning four hundred coins a month.
Also, right now I'm working. I'm in Tanshan, building a house for the Zhong family.
I didn't go today because I was repairing a suspension bridge in the village.
Tomorrow, most of the people here will go hunting.
I went back to Tanshan and continued helping build houses.
The Zhong family's idea is that those of us building the house can pay with coarse grains if we don't want money.
