Chapter 535, It’s Time to Get Engaged
After returning to the Li Mansion, everyone got off the car and went back to the main courtyard. Daohua saw that her fourth brother looked like he was thinking about something, so she couldn't help asking, "Fourth brother, what are you thinking about?"
Yan Wenkai narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm wondering, my eldest brother is already engaged, is it my turn now?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone stopped and looked at him.
Daohua was stunned for a long time before she reacted: "Fourth brother, what were you talking about? I didn't hear you clearly just now."
Yan Wenkai glanced at her, as if he was a little dissatisfied that she didn't hear him clearly: "I mean, I'm not young anymore, it's time to get engaged."
Seeing Yan Wenkai not feeling embarrassed at all when talking about his marriage, Daohua was silent for a moment: "Fourth brother, you still have the second and third brothers above you. They haven't proposed marriage yet, so you should just wait and see."
Yan Wenkai immediately retorted, "I just want to get engaged, I haven't said I want to get married, it has nothing to do with them." Then he looked at Daohua with a smile, "Big sister, what do you think of Sister Su?"
Looking at Yan Wenkai, who was smiling like a fox, Daohua couldn't help but take a step back and move away from him: "Sister Su is naturally fine."
Yan Wenkai looked at Yan Wenxiu and Yan Wentao again: "Big brother, third brother, what do you think?"
Yan Wenxiu glanced at Yan Wenkai, pondered for a moment and said, "Sister Su has a good temper."
Yan Wentao nodded.
Yan Wenkai turned his gaze to Yan Yishuang again.
Yan Yishuang didn't expect Yan Wenkai to ask for her opinion. After a moment's hesitation, she quickly said, "Sister Su is knowledgeable, gentle, quiet, and has a good character. She is my role model."
Yan Wenkai grinned immediately, walked over and patted her shoulder: "Third sister, you have good taste."
Yan Yishuang's body swayed when she was slapped, but she still had a smile on her face.
Yan Wenkai knew what his siblings thought of Su Shiyu, and he was satisfied: "Well, I've decided. I'll go talk to my mother later and ask her to help me propose marriage to the Su family."
Boom!
Shocking thunder!
Daohua, Yan Wenxiu and the others were all stunned by the explosion.
Yang Xiujun and the Li siblings were stunned.
Everyone was silent for a while, and Daohua was the first to come back to her senses: "Fourth brother, marriage is not a joke, don't speak carelessly."
Yan Wenkai immediately complained, "Who's kidding? I'm serious. As long as Sister Su and I are engaged, I can take her out to play without damaging her reputation."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Wenxiu quickly patted Yan Wenkai on the head and said, "Marriage is a serious matter. It's decided by parents and matchmakers. How can you speak carelessly here?"
Yan Wenkai immediately retorted: "I'm not talking nonsense. I'll go find my mother now." After that, he left quickly.
Yan Wenxiu was stunned, feeling helpless about his brother's relentless behavior. He glanced around at everyone present and said, "Please don't spread what Wen Kai just said."
The Li siblings quickly said, "Wen Xiu, don't worry, we won't tell anyone."
Yan Wenxiu nodded, then started to chase Yan Wenkai, and Daohua and Yan Wentao hurriedly followed.
Mrs. Li and her uncle and aunt came back early. At this moment, Mrs. Li had already returned to the guest house and was ready to rest after the children came back.
"mother!"
Mrs. Li was drinking her soothing tea when she saw her youngest son rushing in. She immediately scolded him with a smile, "You're not a child anymore. You should learn to be more steady like your eldest and third brothers."
Yan Wenkai froze, straightened his back, and walked in front of Madam Li with pretended composure, bowing politely.
When Mrs. Li saw this, her eyebrows were raised high. Her youngest son was active and lively, with a straightforward and unrestrained personality, and seldom followed such rules. Just when she was about to praise him, she heard his thundering words.
"Mom, my eldest brother is already engaged. Isn't it time for you to find a partner for your son?"
Mrs. Li was a little slow to react and was stunned for a moment before she spoke: "What did you say?"
Yan Wenkai walked over to Madam Li and sat down, saying seriously, "Mother, it's time for my son to get engaged."
Mrs. Li looked straight at her youngest son. Her son would not mention his marriage for no reason. Could it be that he had hooked up with some questionable woman outside?
Thinking of this, Madam Li's face turned a little grim. After a long silence, she nodded and said, "Don't worry, mother knows about this matter, and your father also remembers it and will help you with it."
Yan Wenkai immediately said, "I've already made up my mind."
Madam Li's expression faded, and she asked lazily, "Have you chosen a match? Whose girl is she?"
Seeing that Madam Li looked unhappy, Yan Wenkai felt a little uneasy: "It's Sister Su."
Madam Li looked over and asked, "Su Shiyu?"
Yan Wenkai nodded repeatedly and said cautiously, "Mom, can you help me propose marriage to the Su family?"
Mrs. Li was relieved to see that she was not that kind of woman. She looked at her youngest son and asked, "Why did you suddenly think of proposing marriage to the Su family?"
Yan Wenkai: "I like Sister Su. Look, Sister Su is gentle, can cook, and doesn't mind listening to me. How wonderful!" He looked at Madam Li nervously, "Mom, do you like Sister Su?"
Madam Li: "Miss Su comes from a distinguished family. Her appearance, character, and manners are outstanding among all the other ladies. Mother naturally likes her."
Yan Wenkai breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great, mother, my elder brother and elder sister also like Sister Su, please help your son to propose marriage."
Madam Li was speechless: "Our family likes Miss Su, but have you ever thought about whether the Su family likes you?"
Yan Wenkai straightened his back immediately: "I'm so outstanding, how could they not like me?"
Daohua, Yan Wenxiu and Yan Wentao, who were eavesdropping outside the door, looked at the mysteriously confident Yan Wenkai with something they couldn't describe.
Madam Li was amused and patiently said to Yan Wenkai, "Wenkai, marriage is about matching the families' social status. Our family's social status is somewhat different from the Su family's. Daughters of wealthy and prestigious families who were pampered rarely marry down, unless the man they are marrying is exceptional."
Yan Wenkai said without any modesty: "I am just outstanding."
Mrs. Li was choked and looked at her youngest son carefully: "Are you serious?"
Yan Wenkai nodded quickly: "Of course I am serious, mother, please help me propose marriage. I have followed Hongxin to the Su family many times before, and both Old Master Su and Master Su like me very much."
Mrs. Li did not express her opinion immediately, but was thinking while holding her tea.
The Su family is really a good marriage.
However, she also knew her own limitations. The Su family was a scholarly family that attached great importance to rules and etiquette. The family had a bright future, and the Yan family was of no help to the Su family. If she really came to propose marriage, she would most likely be rejected.
Mrs. Li glanced at her youngest son and saw that he was looking at her eagerly. She really couldn't refuse him outright.
