Chapter 270 Two Conditions
"Ah, I remember." Li Qingyou avoided Feng Wenru's gaze with a bit of embarrassment, and said, "The painting is quite good, that..."
This matter was a bit sudden, and Li Qingyou didn't know how to handle it more safely for a while. She needed time to think about it, but Feng Wenru didn't give her time to think about it.
"Qingyou." Feng Wenru's eyes moved slightly, and the affection in his eyes almost burst out. It would be fine if the heartbeat that had been suppressed just sank to the bottom, but once it surfaced, it would be unstoppable, and this was what he himself felt
It's hard to control myself.
Mr. Xiao Ge and Miss Xiao are all forgotten. It is common for a man to have three wives and four concubines. He, Mr. Xiao Ge, is dying and has several concubines, not to mention his prime minister, the number one scholar?
Once people find a reason for themselves, and this reason is "reasonable and irrefutable", they will become more confident and feel that it is natural and justified.
Since the man is interested in having a concubine, he should live up to his time and honor his wife.
And this excessive pride and self-aggrandizement, catalyzed by alcohol, also made him subjectively ignore the resistance in Li Qingyou's eyes, and only regarded it as a shy refusal to welcome his daughter's family.
Li Qingyou really didn't expect that things would turn out like this, but she saved her life, and everything else seemed insignificant compared to her life.
Even though Feng Wenru said it was easy, it is not easy to rescue a convicted death row prisoner.
Another point is that she is not actually familiar with Feng Wenru. Even if they are former acquaintances, a change in status will change a person.
She was offered life-saving grace in the past, and she was offered help in the future. It seemed that there was no room for her to refuse, and the initiative was in their hands.
Even so, when the situation is irreversible, she still has to take the initiative to fight for at least how to proceed.
"I can promise you." Li Qingyou's lowered eyebrows raised again, and under Feng Wenru's suddenly brightened gaze, he slowly said, "But I have two conditions."
The beauty is around the corner, and the long-cherished wish is about to be fulfilled. Let alone two conditions, twenty or two hundred are no problem.
Of course, the premise is that you can't cross the line.
Although Feng Wenru was dizzy, he was not drunk yet. He had already made arrangements for Li Qingyou in his heart. As long as he did not cross the line, he was willing to do everything he could to treat her well.
"Say." Feng Wenru said.
Li Qingyou raised a finger with her other free hand, "First, I don't want a status, and I won't enter your Feng family."
Feng Wenru was stunned. This was very different from what he thought. He thought she wanted to marry a matchmaker. If that was the case, he would have to talk to her carefully.
But now she meant the complete opposite, which made him confused. She didn't even know that he had a wife, so she looked down upon his status?
Or retreat to advance?
Li Qingyou smiled and saw the suspicion flashing in the other person's eyes, "A civilian girl still has some self-knowledge. She knows that she is not worthy of her status, so she won't force herself." She doesn't want to live a life of dependence on others. She doesn't want to be a wronged little wife.
her character.
As a modern person, her concept of chastity is not as strong as that of women of this era, so just think of it as 419, which is just a long-term solution.
Feng Wenru's hands loosened a little, and she felt depressed in her heart. She wanted to ask if she was still thinking about someone else since she was willing to commit herself to him, but was unwilling to accompany him.
The only person he could think of was Zhang Tieniu, but how could such a rough guy deserve her to care about him so much?
Feng Wenru calls himself a gentleman, and forcing others to do things that go against his moral bottom line, but he wants to let go but is unwilling to do so, "What about the second point?"
Li Qingyou sighed. The second point was what she had been thinking about just now but was embarrassed to say, "I would like to ask you to send someone to the Liangzhou Prefecture to help me find my brother."
Adi's matter has always been on Li Qingyou's mind. Now that several months have passed, he doesn't know whether he escaped or is still there, or whether he was caught or even killed.
It's just that this matter is a bit difficult to talk about. After all, compared to her matters, Adi's identity is a big deal.
If Feng Wenru could do this for her, she wouldn't feel wronged even if she followed him. What's more, he was born well and had a good figure, so she didn't suffer any loss.
"Brother?" Feng Wenru didn't expect the second condition to be this. He thought she wanted to ask for a large sum of money, and then he frowned in confusion. He remembered when did that delicate and exquisite little girl become a younger brother?
Li Qingyou had already thought of an excuse for this, "My brother-in-law was weak when he was a child, and my parents were afraid that they wouldn't be able to support him, so they dressed up like girls and changed back when they were older."
This kind of thing is not uncommon in ancient times. In ancient times, it was difficult for children to survive. Some people would give names such as Goudan, Leanzhao, etc. The so-called cheap names were easy to make a living. There were also boys who were raised as girls.
Feng Wenru didn't have much doubt about this, but the hot blood that had surged before was now completely cold.
With his erudition and talent, and having been immersed in official circles for several years, how could he not see Li Qingyou's reluctance?
The deep frustration made him very angry for a while. He let go of Li Qingyou's hand and stood up suddenly, the smile on his face turned into ice, "It was Feng who was abrupt. I have something to do today. Let's visit the girl another day."
After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and left.
Li Qingyou looked at his back and sighed silently. She couldn't tell whether she was happy or disappointed, but the worry in her heart skyrocketed.
Before, when she was in prison, she was worried that there was nothing she could do about her brother. Now that she is out, that worry can no longer be suppressed.
Feng Wenru walked away in anger. It looked like she couldn't help anymore, so she had to rely on herself. But the problem was that she didn't have much, and even the clothes were given to her by Feng Wenru.
The capital is thousands of miles away from Liangzhou. How could she get on the road without Sichuan-funded tolls?
"Oh, I have worked hard for several years, and once I returned to before liberation." Li Qingyou picked up the cup and took another sip of wine. In depression, she couldn't help but curse, "It's so damn sad."
I remember when I gave Feng Wenru five taels of silver for traveling expenses, and I laughed and said that I would repay him a hundred times in the future. But now that he has saved her life and arranged a place for her to live, I can't be shy and ask for money from others, right?
Li Qingyou was so worried that she walked around in circles in the room, then turned to the study on the left.
The study room is very well decorated, with all the bookcases and desks, and there are even a lot of books on them?
Li Qingyou didn't know that this was specially arranged by Feng Wenru. Naturally, these books were not for her to read, but for him to read. The reason why Li Qingyou was placed here was because he had prepared a temporary love nest for the two of them.
