Chapter 478 Want to Marry My Cousin
Liu Ye couldn't help but hold her forehead when she saw her lady's love affair. The lady was good in every way, except that sometimes she couldn't walk when she saw a good-looking man.
Li He couldn't stand it anymore. "Cousin, it's getting late, I'll leave first," Li He said, grabbing the book and running away, not even looking back, running forward, afraid that his cousin would catch up with him from behind.
Shuqi was very disappointed as soon as Li He left. His cousin didn't even want to look back and was extremely reluctant to even look at him more than once.
"Liu Ye, what do you say I should do? My cousin doesn't seem to have any feelings for me in that way."
Liu Ye really wanted to roll her eyes in her heart. Your cousin is a notorious blockhead. He treats every girl like this.
"Miss, my cousin may not have this intention for the time being. He may have it in the future, but it is unrealistic for you to put your hope on him, and the adults may not want it either."
Shuqi was immediately unhappy, "Why wouldn't my father agree? He would definitely agree. If we were really together, it would be a perfect marriage, which would be a great thing. If it were my mother, she would definitely agree."
"Miss, don't forget the young man in the imperial capital. That's what the master told you personally. If nothing unexpected happens, you may..."
Liu Ye didn't say anything more. She knew that her young lady didn't like the young man, but she couldn't help but think that the young lady liked him. It didn't matter whether the young lady liked him or not. It was not something she could influence.
Shuqi was instantly unhappy. She knew in her heart that this matter was indeed beyond her control. But she really didn't like it, not at all.
Shuqi was overwhelmed. It seemed that he had to go find his mother to deal with this matter.
Shuqi did what he said and went to find his mother immediately.
When Shuqi saw that his mother was in the hall, he immediately went there and threw himself into his mother's arms.
Chunyan said with a smile, "You are already so old, why are you still acting like a child? You may be an adult next year."
Chunyan was teasing her daughter.
Shuqi was not very happy to hear that.
"Mom, I don't want to get married now. I want to be by your side forever."
"Silly child, what nonsense are you talking about? There is no such thing as a girl who stays single for her whole life. It's impossible. Other people's spit will drown you. This is the way the world is. Women must get married, have children, and be filial to their parents-in-law."
"We women are pitiful, but we can do nothing about it and can only go with the flow. But I feel that I am a blessed person. I found your father, and he treats me very well. You see, I have lived a very happy life over the years, and none of my sisters in my family do not envy me."
Shuqi looked at his mother in front of him and felt very distressed. In fact, he knew that his father had a mistress outside, and that woman gave birth to two sons for his father. He didn't know whether he should tell his mother about this.
Chunyan was still reminiscing about her sweet life with her husband, and the smile on her face never faded.
"Mom, have you ever thought about why Dad didn't urge you to have another child?"
Shuqi asked his mother anxiously.
"Shuqi, what do you want to say?"
Shuqi said again, "I am
"Say, have you ever thought about why dad doesn't brag about you anymore? Mom, have you ever thought about it? In ordinary families, it is a must to have a son. How can an official family like us not have a son? Besides, grandparents don't brag about you."
Shuqi didn't dare to say anything more as he could clearly see that his mother's face had changed.
Chunyan did not answer this question and immediately changed the subject, "I can think about my own affairs. Tell me what brings you to me."
Shuqi then remembered that he had come to see his mother because he had something to say, and he immediately told her about Li He's visit to his home.
Chunyan is proud when she talks about her nephew.
"Speaking of your cousin, I am very proud of him. He is the best student in our family. He has a good personality, a good temper, and is gentle. I like his words and deeds very much."
Chunyan was so proud when she talked about her nephew that people who didn't know him would think he was her son.
Shuqi was very happy to hear these words, "Mom, you also think my cousin is amazing. What you said is what I want to say, Mom, what do you think of me and my cousin?"
"How about what."
Chunyan hasn't reacted yet.
Shuqi said coquettishly, "Mom, what do you think? You actually think your cousin is so good, let him be your son-in-law."
"As the saying goes, a son-in-law is half a son. I think my cousin is pretty good. If he really gets together with me in the future, mother, he will definitely be good to you and father. Mother, I am very satisfied with my cousin."
After Shuqi finished speaking, he lowered his head and his ears turned red.
Chunyan looked at Shuqi, "What's wrong with you? Why do you like your cousin? I said I would introduce your cousin to you before. You refused to do so. I thought it was a pity at that time. I really like my nephew Li He and I am very satisfied with him."
"But you don't want to. You said you don't like your cousin and you don't want him. You just see him as your cousin and don't have any other thoughts. What's the matter now? You like him, but it's too late for you to like him now."
Shuqi felt very aggrieved, "Mom, you said that was in the past, in the past. It's different now. Now I like my cousin."
"Mom, it's only been a few years since we last met, and my cousin has grown into what he is now. It's true that boys change a lot as they grow older. He becomes more and more handsome."
Whenever Shuqi mentioned her cousin Li He, her face turned red and she felt very shy.
Chunyan was very firm, "No, there is no room for negotiation on this matter. It's impossible for the two of you now."
"Why mom, why is it impossible? You said your cousin is good. You are very satisfied with your cousin, so why is your cousin not good enough now? I don't care, I just want my cousin. My cousin is good in everything."
"He is still a scholar now, a successful candidate in the imperial examination. I am very satisfied with him."
Chunyan got angry all of a sudden, "You're here again. You didn't agree with your cousin before. You're the same. It was you who disagreed, and now it's still you who wants to be with your cousin."
"Some things are not something you can do just because you want to. There is no room for negotiation on this matter. And your father has already arranged a marriage for you. The man in the imperial capital, his father is an official in the capital, and his authority is greater than your father's."
"It is a blessing for our family to be able to marry into this family. As for your cousin, don't think about it. If you want to think about it, he is just your cousin. He has no other identity."
"Mom, I don't like the guy in the capital. I haven't even met him. And you only have me as your daughter. Can you bear to see me unhappy?"
"You haven't even gotten married yet, how do you know you're unhappy? Not only will I not agree to this, your father will also not agree if he finds out."
"During the time you are married, you should stay at home and don't go anywhere. The business in the shop is now on the right track, so don't go there unless you have something to do. If there is really something that needs to be resolved, you can let Yuntao handle it herself."
"You have to remember that you will go to the capital sooner or later, and you don't need to manage the business in the shop. It's a good thing to let Yun Tao manage it now, so that you don't have to tell her about your departure to the capital. After all, she treats you well."
Shuqi was very unwilling, "Mom, I really don't want to."
"This matter is not a question of whether you want to or not. Shuqi, you can't marry the daughters and sons of officials just because you want to."
"Those young masters can't marry whomever they want. You're not the only one who's like this. Even your mother and I are the same. You should give up on this idea. If you marry the one in the imperial capital, your father will have a greater chance of becoming an official in the imperial capital."
"Although I like your cousin very much, he has a background in the capital after all, and he may not be an official in the capital. Comparing Li He's future with your father's, I am definitely thinking of your father."
