Chapter 242 Deliberately making things difficult

"I've been here at Su's house for many days, but I haven't had a chance to see Miss Su Er. It's a pity." When Aunt Mei sent Li Muzhou out of the main house, Li Muzhou sighed pretending to be regretful as he walked away, "

I have heard for a long time that Miss Su Er is very knowledgeable and talented. She is not only a talented woman well-known to everyone in Lin'an City,

, and now she is even more famous. With just one wonderful painting, her elegance far surpasses that of all the young ladies from famous families in the south of the Yangtze River. Such a rare and wonderful woman in the world, I wonder if I will ever have such a blessing in this life and be able to see it with my own eyes.

Miss Su Er’s beauty.”

Seeing Li Muzhou praising his second young lady, Aunt Mei immediately became happy. She never expected that what happened on Mrs. Yun's birthday party would spread throughout the south of the Yangtze River so quickly, "Master Li, there is no need to belittle yourself. You are so talented, Master."

, full of knowledge, she is the most suitable for my second lady, so

Well, I will send someone to talk to the maid next to the second young lady later, and check out the second young lady’s tone. If the second young lady is willing to see you, then this matter will be 80% fine, haha, but the ugly words are ahead, if

The second young lady refuses to see you, so you should wait until my master recovers from his illness before making any plans."

When Li Muzhou heard that Aunt Mei was willing to help and help him secretly pull the strings, he was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed and said, "If this can happen, I will be grateful to Aunt Mei in the future and will never forget it for the rest of my life." As long as Su Er

It would be easy if the young lady is willing to come to see him. With his talent, knowledge and appearance, I'm afraid he won't be able to capture the heart of Miss Su Er.

Aunt Mei smiled and said, "Yes, seeing as the young master is so sincere, this matter will be taken care of by me. I will go and tell the second lady in person, and the young master will wait for good news."

After saying that, Aunt Mei turned around and entered the house.

Aunt Mei personally promised him that she would go there by herself, but the place she went to was not Miss Su’s residence. Li Muzhou was suspicious, could it be that Miss Su was there just now?

After a while, Aunt Mei came out with a smile on her face and said, "Mr. Li, my second lady asked you to wait for her in the main hall in front. Come with me."

As soon as these words came out, Li Muzhou was relieved. Miss Su Er was indeed inside. She was looking at him inside. Could it be that she had some thoughts about him? After all, there is no reason for a young lady to run away for no reason.

Come and take a peek at the man. Thinking about this, Li Muzhou felt even more proud. He Li Muzhou

After all, Mu Zhou is also a scholar. By marrying a mediocre woman like her, he has already devalued himself. Besides, there have been rumors all over Lin'an City recently, saying that this second Miss Su is unruly and has an affair with Mr. Yun.

It's unclear, doesn't this mean that he has been cuckolded?

Humph, Su Jinxin is a bitch, wait until he marries her and see how he deals with her. Thinking of it in the end, Li Muzhou felt angry. If it weren't for the fact that the Su family is so rich, he would not marry this wealthy woman.

The talented and handsome Miss Su Er.

Dusk is approaching, and lanterns have been hung up near the main hall of the Su family. The red light illuminates the entire main hall with splendor.

"Master Li." When Li Muzhou entered, maids were standing on both sides of the main hall, shouting to him, almost startling him.

"These are the people who usually serve the second young lady," Aunt Mei explained. "The second young lady is the legitimate young lady in our house, so there are more people to serve around her. Well..." Aunt Mei paused for a moment and said

He counted with his fingers, "The second young lady has three eldest maids, namely Qiaolan, Zhilan, and Qinglan, five second-class maids, eight third-class maids, and some rough maids who clean the courtyard..."

When Aunt Mei said this, Li Muzhou was dumbfounded. Miss Su had so many maids around her and was so pampered. If he married her back, she would not be able to worship her like a Bodhisattva. After all, what was left in the Li family?

Li Muzhou knew very well what kind of wealth he wanted to marry. If he married a legitimate daughter of the Su family, it would be fine if her dowry was large. But if Mr. Su was stingy and gave less, wouldn't he have to pay for the loss and gain nothing?

arrive.

"Master Li, please take a seat. The second lady will be here in a moment." Aunt Mei guided Li Muzhou to his seat, then ordered the maid to bring tea to Li Muzhou, and then she went out.

The main hall was silent. Li Muzhou was sitting alone, but he was stared at by more than twenty maids. These maids seemed to be looking at him, but they didn't seem to be looking at him, which only made him feel uncomfortable.

"Second Miss, you have been keeping Mr. Li outside for almost an hour. You see..." Qiaolan said softly. The visitor is a guest. Second Miss is usually kind to people, so why do you treat Mr. Li like this?

So mean.

Su Jinxin closed the book in her hand and looked out the window. It was already dark, it was time.

"Then I will go meet this future uncle of our Su family. Let's go."

Su Jinxin put down the book, and Qiaolan took the fox fur and put it on Su Jinxin's body. This was the Nuan Pavilion, which was close to the main hall. Su Jinxin deliberately wanted to make things difficult for Li Muzhou, so she walked very slowly.

When they were approaching the main hall, Su Jinxin did not go directly to the front door of the main hall, but entered through the back door.

"You have kept Mr. Li waiting for a long time."

A delicate sound sounded, and Li Muzhou's heart skipped a beat when he heard it.

Originally, Li Muzhou had been sitting here for an hour, with anger already igniting in his heart, but because he was in the Su family, he couldn't have an attack, so he had to endure it. But now he heard such a beautiful voice of a woman, soft,

It was as clear and crisp as a blue spring with ripples, and hearing it made people's hearts flutter. At that moment, half of the anger in Li Muzhou's heart was gone, and everything he said was just like the person he said it was.

, a woman's voice can be so pleasant, and her appearance is not much different. But the moment Li Muzhou saw Miss Su Er, he was still a little disappointed, because he walked towards the main seat of the main hall.

The woman was covered with a veil, so he could not see her true appearance, but her graceful figure and graceful steps showed the nobility of a young lady from aristocratic families.

Wearing a tender yellow embroidered skirt, the hem of the skirt is embroidered with water mist cloud patterns. The cloud patterns are woven with precious dark gold silk threads. There are also fine pearls strung on the silk threads. The brilliance of these beads flows and shines. Look again.

The fox fur she wears is pure white in color and

Li Muzhou was secretly surprised when he looked at how much money it was worth. The Su family was really rich. Miss Su's clothes alone were enough for an ordinary person to live a lifetime, let alone the ring around her waist.

, Jin Buyao with a pearl on his head.

"My Excellency, Li Muzhou, I have met Miss Su Er." Li Muzhou stood up hurriedly and held his hands to Su Jinxin.

"No need to be polite, sir, please take a seat." Su Jinxin sat down on the main seat. Three maids, Qiaolan, Qinglan, and Zhilan, stood beside her, making her even more coercive.

momentum.

In the previous life, this man had trampled her into the dust. He only regarded her as a stepping stone for his promotion. Once he became successful, he kicked her away. Now, she saw this man looking at her with a gentle face.

She smiled, with a hint of flattery in her smile. Although he was pretending to be calm now, she had been married to him for three years and knew him well.

She clearly saw the inferiority complex in his eyes when he saw her, as well as his subconscious awe for her. Yes, at this moment, she was the second young lady of the Su family, and he

, is just a down-and-out child from a poor family, why should he be on an equal footing with her? Under the veil, the corners of Su Jinxin's mouth slightly raised, and she smiled a bit mockingly.

"I heard that Mr. Li's big exam is coming soon. I think next year's provincial exam will definitely be for high school." Su Jinxin asked casually.

"I have been studying hard for more than ten years in Hanchuang, so that one day I can do my best for the court and the people." Li Muzhou said seriously, with a righteous look on his face, and he has great potential for the people of the world.

A passionate scholar.

Su Jinxin doesn't know why other people study to obtain fame, but what she knows is that Li Muzhou obtains fame for his own selfish desires. Haha, just say it if you like pursuing fame and fortune. Why bother to say so?

It sounds grand, for the sake of common people, for the sake of righteousness, but he has the nerve to say it.

"Young Master really has lofty ambitions, I really admire you." Su Jinxin smiled secretly, Li Muzhou, you won't be admitted to the Juren Examination until three years later. If you want to be an official, let's wait until you pass the Juren Examination.

When Li Muzhou saw Su Jin's gentle smile and soft-spoken voice, and asked about his official career, he decided that Miss Su was interested in him, even though there were rumors in Lin'an City that Miss Su liked Yun.

Young Master, who is Mr. Dan Yun?

, how could she fall in love with a little daughter of the Su family? Second Miss Su wanted Mr. Yun and couldn't get it, so she would naturally choose him. Besides, he is not bad either. He comes from a scholarly family and is a scholar. He is comparable to a man covered in bronze.

The smelly Su family is much nobler.

"Second Miss, please take a look at this thing." Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Muzhou took out the emerald-green jade pendant from his body. This jade pendant was the token that Mr. Su gave to the Li family, saying that it was used as evidence.

, the Su and Li families became friends with Qin and Jin.

Li Muzhou took out the jade pendant. How could Su Jinxin not know what he wanted to say next? However, she was not the only daughter of the Su family who wanted to marry her, haha... Li Muzhou, you really think highly of you.

I, in my previous life, I was cursed with the evil star and was forced to marry far away. In this life, my fate is in my own hands. No one can force me to do so. Yun

Che can't do it, and you, Li Muzhou, can't do it either!

"This is what my young lady's grandfather gave to your Li family?" Su Jinxin's smile became softer and softer, her voice soft and gentle, like pearls falling on a jade plate, but with a bit of seductive charm.

I really wanted to see what this second Miss Su looked like. Li Muzhou was fascinated by Su Jinxin's pleasant voice and was distracted for a while, but he soon realized that he had lost his composure and hurriedly picked up the tea and drank it.

He took a sip and said sternly, "I dare not deceive the second young lady. Before my father passed away, I handed this token into my hand. He also said that when I succeed, I can propose marriage to the Su family again."

However, young ladies from aristocratic families have lived in deep boudoir for a long time and are not familiar with the world. It is rare to see men other than their father and brothers. Therefore, Li Muzhou is not even wary of Miss Su Er, who is only fourteen years old, and secretly
