Chapter 294, A couple for life?
Hearing that Daohua and others were flying kites on the grass behind the Temple of the Goddess of Flowers, Li Zixin ignored her sore feet and insisted on dragging Li Zixuan over to play.
As soon as they arrived, they saw Sun Jiayue holding a kite and talking to Fang Liangji.
"This Sun Jiayue is so shameless. Doesn't she know that Brother Fang is already engaged? And she still won't let him go!"
Li Zixin was quite displeased with Sun Jiayue and her face immediately turned cold.
Although Li Zixuan's face was not good, she was more concerned about Fang Liangji's reaction and attitude. When she saw Fang Liangji reject Sun Jiayue with impatience and go to his cousin Wenxiu to avoid suspicion, her expression relaxed a little.
"Come on, let's go over there."
The two walked towards Yan Wenxiu and others.
"Zixuan!"
When Fang Liangji saw Li Zixuan, his face suddenly lit up with joy.
His family arranged Li Zixuan for him, and he was actually very satisfied.
He remembered that years ago at the Li family banquet, Li Zixuan went on stage and played a guzheng piece. He no longer remembered the piece, but he still remembered Zixuan's beautiful and charming face.
Different from the rich air of other girls from business families, Zixuan has the scholarly air of a scholar.
He likes this kind of bookish air very much.
Li Zixuan glanced at Fang Liangji and saw that he was staring at her with burning eyes. She felt a little embarrassed and annoyed. She had studied etiquette and rules with Master Shen at her aunt's house for several months, which made her pay more attention to her own words and deeds.
Ignoring Fang Liangji, Li Zixuan smiled and saluted Yan Wenxiu and Fang Hao. Seeing Sun Jiayue and others not far away, she also smiled and nodded and greeted them.
This was the first time Fang Hao met Li Zixuan. After observing her words and actions, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.
Fang Ming's vision is still good. Compared with the girl from the Li family, the girl from the Sun family is really not inferior at all.
"Zixuan, let me take you to fly a kite!"
Looking at Daohua and others playing happily in the distance, Fang Liangji couldn't help but say to Li Zixuan.
Li Zixuan blushed and was about to refuse when she heard Li Chenyi say with a smile, "Go ahead. Today is the Flower Festival. It's a rare opportunity to come out. Have some fun."
After hearing what his elder brother said, Li Zixuan nodded with a red face.
Seeing her agree, Fang Liangji grinned and said, "It's more spacious over there, let's go there."
Not far away, Sun Jiayue saw Fang Liangji taking Li Zixuan to fly a kite with a gentle and considerate look on his face. Anger appeared on her face and she threw the kite in her hand to the ground.
"What a crap kite! I don't want to fly it." After saying that, he pretended to step on it twice.
Seeing this, Sun Yongyi's face turned furious, and he couldn't help but scold: "Shut up, otherwise, you go home now."
Seeing that her brother didn't help her, Sun Jiayue's eyes were suddenly filled with tears.
Sun Yongyi sighed silently and glanced at his friend who had been completely absorbed by Li Zixuan: "Don't think about Fang Liangji anymore. Dad and Mom will choose a better family for you than the Fang family."
Sun Jiayue: "I don't want others, I just want"
"Shut up!" Sun Yongyi said seriously, "If you don't want to be locked up at home, you'd better not say such things anymore."
Merchants don’t pay much attention to rules, but they still have to abide by secular rules.
Even businessmen can't stand a girl talking about men all the time.
Sun Jiayue was a little frightened. She pursed her lips and said nothing, looking at Fang Liangji who was happily flying kites with Li Zixuan with tears in her eyes.
Seeing his sister like this, Sun Yongyi felt uncomfortable.
Although his father was the president of the Zhongzhou Chamber of Commerce and had good relations with some officials, these relationships were built up with money. Once their business was down and the money they gave was less, these relationships would be broken at any time. They were far less solid than the in-law relationship between the Li and Yan families.
Not to mention the Fang family, even their family had thought about marrying into the Li family.
Unfortunately, the Fang family got there first.
Looking at the quiet and graceful Li Zixuan, Sun Yongyi felt a little sorry. He had not paid much attention to this girl before, but after seeing her today, he found that she was much more dignified and gentle than any girl he had seen before.
Looking at his willful and impatient sister, he couldn't help but sigh.
"When you get home, I'll have to ask my mother to find you a teacher who can teach you etiquette and manners."
"What are you looking at? Just fly your kite!"
Seeing Daohua frequently looking towards Li Zixuan and Fang Liangji, Xiao Yeyang couldn't help but stop her.
Daohua looked away and snorted.
Xiao Yeyang glanced over there and said, "I'm fine, why are you humming?"
Daohua said unhappily, "All men are pigs." She was being fed by Sun Jiayue the moment before, and now she was flying kites with her cousin as if nothing had happened. She really had a bad feeling towards Fang Liangji.
Xiao Yeyang was stunned for a moment: "What do you mean?"
Daohua glanced at him and said, "That is to say, men are not good things. They like every one they meet."
Xiao Yeyang was speechless: "You are too absolute."
Daohua asked back, "Then let me ask you, will you love only one girl wholeheartedly in your life?"
The sudden soul-searching question made Xiao Yeyang at a loss as to how to respond, and he was stunned for a moment.
Daohua curled her lips, not expecting him to answer, and continued to talk to herself, "You are a young prince, of noble status. You will definitely have three wives and four concubines in the future. How could you be so devoted to only one girl? It's useless to ask you."
As he said this, he looked at Fang Liangji and Li Zixuan again, and saw the sweet smile on Li Zixuan's face, and sighed.
"I hope Fang Liangji and that Sun Jiaoyue won't be entangled in the future."
Xiao Yeyang muttered, "I think your cousin and Fang Liangji are doing well."
Daohua chuckled, "It's the honeymoon phase of a relationship, so of course we're all in love, but when the passion fades and life becomes dull, and the woman throws herself into his arms, how many men can sit still?"
"When Sun Jiayue fed her the cakes, Fang Liangji said he was doing it to save his friend's face, but deep down, he must have been more or less concerned about Sun Jiayue's feelings."
"If you really don't care at all, you will always find a reason to refuse." As he said this, he glanced at his cousin Zixuan and Fang Liangji.
"For Fang Liangji, cousin Zixuan is just a little more suitable to be his wife than Sun Jiayue, but it's far from being necessary for him to have her."
"If the feelings between two people are truly passionate and sincere, their hearts and eyes will naturally be filled with each other, and there will be no room for a third person to disrupt their relationship."
"This kind of mixed feeling of self-interest is really frustrating. If I were your cousin..."
Having said this, Daohua stopped talking.
She knew in her heart that in ancient times, marriage was the union of two families, and if the newlyweds wanted to have love, it depended on their luck and character.
Xiao Yeyang pressed on, "What would you do if you were your cousin?"
Daohua immediately sneered, "Of course, I'll stay as far away as possible. How loyal do you expect a man who had an ambiguous relationship with another woman before marriage to be? What's the point of having a man who is not loyal in love? He'll just make me a backup!"
Xiao Yeyang was about to say, "Isn't it normal for a man to have three or four wives?" But when he thought about Daohua's reaction to another girl feeding a piece of cake to her future cousin-in-law, he sensibly kept it to himself.
He was afraid that this guy would get angry with him!
Daohua sighed at this moment and said somewhat dejectedly, "A lifetime together? In this day and age, I'm afraid it can only be an unattainable daydream, right?"
Hearing this, Xiao Yeyang was shocked and looked at Daohua in surprise.
A lifetime, a couple?!
Suddenly, Xiao Yeyang felt that he seemed to understand some of Daohua's extraordinary actions.
Why did she dislike her father's concubine so much?
Why does she hate Fang Liangji?
A lifelong couple, is this what she wants from her future husband?
Seeing Xiao Yeyang looking at her in shock, Daohua snorted coldly: "What are you looking at? Do you think I'm a jealous woman? I am jealous, so what?"
As he said this, he laughed at himself and said, "Forget it, it's hard to explain to someone like you."
Xiao Yeyang was fed up: "What kind of person am I?"
Daohua twitched the corner of her mouth and said sarcastically, "You are accustomed to the rule of having three wives and four concubines and take it for granted."
"I"
"Don't deny it. If you make a big promise today and fail to keep it in the future, I will slap you in the face."
Xiao Yeyang stiffened his neck and said, "What if I did it?"
Daohua's eyes turned, she looked around, and whispered, "Don't try to fool me. I heard from Jingwan that for people with family backgrounds like yours, before you get married, the elders in your family will definitely put a few maids in your room to serve you."
"Brother Zhou has it all, how can you not have it?"
After saying that, he looked Xiao Yeyang up and down with his eyes slanted.
Seeing Daohua like this, Xiao Yeyang's ears turned red and he gritted his teeth and said, "Yan Yiyi, don't go too far! You are insulting me!"
When she was in the capital, she had maids to serve her, but after coming to Zhongzhou, Defu took care of everything around her, so there was no need for maids.
Daohua saw that he was so anxious that his veins were popping out, and was immediately puzzled: "Really?" Seeing that Xiao Yeyang was about to lose his temper, she quickly comforted him, "If there is no, then there is no. Why are you so anxious? I was just saying it casually."
Xiao Yeyang took a few deep breaths before suppressing the anger in his heart. He gritted his teeth and said, "Yan Yiyi, you know a lot. You even know about concubines!"
Rice Flower: "If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself."
Her inquiring look made Xiao Yeyang extremely annoyed. He put the thread end into Daohua's hand and walked away angrily.
