Chapter 181: Chapter 181: We talked about it yesterday......_1
The incident of Qin Yi rolling down the slope with Yue’er during the Qingming Outing just the other day, for some reason, was already being talked about everywhere after just a day.
If it weren’t for the fact that the armed forces happened to be present, this would have likely caused a commotion already.
Thinking about this, Su Sikong felt strangely uncomfortable. He had made every effort to prevent the spread of the news, yet why had it still...
Su Sikong was making excuses and his distracted look showed that he certainly didn’t take others seriously, not giving any importance to himself! Eighth Master’s face grew as black as ink.
"What, are you thinking of marrying off Yue’er to that poor scholar?"
Su Sikong looked as though he wanted to say something, but held back.
"My daughter Yue’er has been worried about rumours spreading and has been crying endlessly since she came back. She has said that as long as that scholar comes forth with a marriage proposal, she’ll get herself into a polygamous marriage. Ah!"
At this, Eighth Master’s face turned an even darker shade, his rage evident. With a swish of his large sleeve, he warned: "You had better think this through! What needs to change, and what needs to be let go? I have to rush back now to finish my duties. Time is short, you must give me an answer within three days. Otherwise, hmph hmph!"
Having said this, he didn’t wait for Su Sikong to say more, but left in a huff.
Watching the vanishing figure, Su Sikong spat heavily.
"Damn it! What the hell! He still has his sights on my Yue’er? He should take a good look at himself, what a scoundrel!"
Muttering a few more curses, Su Sikong, despite his apparent displeasure, still had to consider how to approach Su Yue’er about this matter.
What he wasn’t expecting, was that when he arrived at Su Yue’er’s boudoir, she began to speak before him, showing her empathy.
"Father, you seem very troubled today. Did those people from the Capital City cause you concerns again?"
Today, Su Yue’er lightly touched her face with rouge and powder, delicately applying it to her exquisite brows, her simplicity and frailty adding an unparalleled charm.
Seeing this, Su Sikong couldn’t help but sigh.
"Ah! Yue’er, you’ve grown up and have your own opinions. Your father won’t hide this from you."
He quickly gave her an account of the matter: "Right now, Eighth Master is temporarily residing in the Su house. I’m thinking of sending you away under the cover of tonight’s darkness. You can stay in the County Town for a few days and remain unnoticed ..."
"Father! Do you really think I am talented enough to escape under their watchful eyes? Father, you really overestimate me!"
Su Yue’er pouted her lips and rolled her eyes.
"Then, what should we do?"
Su Sikong was anxious: "Your father is worried he won’t give up. You..."
Su Yue’er quickly held Su Sikong’s hand, smiling with deep meaning: "Father, did you forget? We discussed this yesterday..."
"Oh right!"
Su Sikong suddenly clapped his hands, quickly standing up, "You rest, and don’t run around. Father will go out and arrange things. We just have to endure these two days."
Upon finishing, he quickly rushed out the door, heading straight to Su Laosan’s courtyard.
Offered Su Laosan benefits and persuaded him emotionally.
After successfully persuading Su Lao Si to replace Su Pan’er as the bride, he was quite skilled at persuading Su Laosan again.
He grasped Su Laosan’s hand, faking agony, squeezing a few fake tears with eyes half-closed.
"Lao San, you don’t have to worry about the matter I mentioned earlier. Think about it, Xian’er is just a girl and she will eventually get married. But what about your two sons? Do they have to spend their whole lives in this remote valley, scrounging for food in the soil?"
These words made Su Laosan shudder, lowering his head even further.
Su Sikong, who knew his third brother well, saw his reaction and could not help upping the ante.
"At most, I’ll do this! Lao San, I will not only keep the two nephews by my side, but will also find them respectable jobs. In a short time, they’ll be able to save enough silver to buy properties in the County Town, and you could also come to the County Town to enjoy life."
"At most, I’ll do this! Laosan, I’ll not only keep the two nephews by my side and arrange jobs for them, once they’ve established themselves, I’ll gift each of them with a property in the County Town. How about that?"
For Yue’er’s sake, he had really splurged!
Su Laosan, who was engrossed and had his head down, looked up in surprise, his eyes full of astonishment.
Su Sikong laughed!
Because he knew, it was a done deal!
Ha!
Eighth Master, even if you are a renowned figure, dream on if you think you can marry my Yue’er!
After storming out of the house, Eighth Master was unmistakably in a foul mood and couldn’t help but aimlessly wander around the Su Family courtyard.
Just as he walked not far off, he spotted a young girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, picking vegetables in a nearby field. Finding the sight intriguing, he quickly approached her.
"What are you doing, Missy?"
"Picking vegetables, don’t you know? It’s true what they say, those from the Capital are different from us."
Su Xian’er’s words flowed without missing a beat.
Such remark caught the Eighth Master’s attention: "How did you know we came from the Capital?"
"Because my uncle told me so. He also told us to avoid you officers."
A gleam flashed in Su Xian’er’s eyes, so quick it seemed almost elusive. She glanced sideways at him, got up with her basket: "Uncle also said, all of you from the Capital are handsome and refined, just like...like my cousin Yue’er. Today, seeing you, an officer, truly live up to expectation!"
Her compliment left the Eighth Master feeling completely elated!
He burst into laughter: "What a sweet-talking young lady, good, good, good! Your uncle indeed has discerning eyes. It’s rare, not only is this mouth of yours good at talking, you also come with beauty...."
Mid-sentence, he reached out to touch Su Xian’er’s cheek.
Su Xian’er slipped, and fell to the ground.
Just in time to avoid his outstretched hand.
She quickly got up and dusted off her hands, acting as if nothing had happened: "Isn’t it! Uncle is truly great. And cousin Yue’er is also, oh so bright and glistening, delicate and red. Not a single person who has seen her hasn’t praised her!"
"Is she really that beautiful?"
The Eighth Master was staring at the young face before him, his heart itching.
If this beauty is inferior to Su Yue’er, how beautiful must Su Yue’er be?
"Yes, she is that beautiful."
Su Xian’er did not take note of his dilemma, waved at him: "Today, my family is throwing a big feast for you. These vegetables are for the kitchen. I should hurry and deliver them. You enjoy yourself!"
After finishing, she waved at him again.
"Alright, alright, go ahead!"
Su Sikong seems a thoughtful chap, it appears the matter at hand should succeed with him!
The Eighth Master felt even more elated. He then remembered something else: "Oh right, I forgot to ask, what is your name?"
"Officer, aren’t you funny? A girl’s name isn’t to be casually given away."
Su Xian’er smirked, hopped away cheerfully.
As soon as she turned around, a look of disgust appeared on her face. What a creature! Ugly is one thing, but his lustful eyes were too much.
Disgusting!
However, her smile stirred a fiery passion in the heart of the Eighth Master.
It seems all the sisters of the Su family are true gems. I wonder how dazzlingly beautiful this Su Yue’er must be?
Hopefully, Su Sikong can make a decision soon!
