Chapter 386 I think I'm going to propose marriage
Shen Qian'an was stunned for a moment. Why is Ali so fierce now?
Shen Li said slowly: "Fourth brother, my eldest brother will have an official position soon, and with my marriage to Pei Yu, your family background will no longer be an issue between you and Ah Hui."
"So, why keep putting it off? I don't know how long it will take you to come back from the capital. Ah Hui is worried. She even mentioned it to me today, saying that she is worried that you will fall in love with other women in the capital."
"But when you two are far apart, you start to worry about these things, always anxious about gains and losses, and problems can easily arise over time."
"Ah Hui has always hated going to the capital, but this time, she took the initiative to tell me that she also wanted to go to the capital. Fourth brother, why do you think that is?"
A helpless and doting smile flashed across Shen Qian'an's face, but soon disappeared.
"Ali, I want to wait a little longer."
Shen Li nodded, "I understand, Fourth Brother, you want to prove that you are capable, but you have to understand that Ah Hui is not young anymore, she may not be able to wait until the day you go to high school."
"Where there is a will there is a way. Fourth brother, since you believe that you can pass the exam, there is no need to delay. Can't you settle the marriage as soon as possible? This way, both of you can feel at ease, right?"
Shen Qi'an didn't speak immediately after hearing this. He thought for a while before nodding slowly, "Ali, you are right. Since we like each other, there is no need to drag it on any longer."
The most important thing is that she doesn't want Ah Hui to worry about gains and losses. If this continues, her bright and cheerful personality may change because of her, which is not what she wants to see.
Shen Li saw his fourth brother suddenly stand up and walk out in a hurry. When he reached the door, he remembered that there was such a person as himself.
"Ali, you go back first. I'll go find my mother and bring a matchmaker to the Su family tomorrow to propose marriage."
The last two words were said sonorously and powerfully.
"it is good."
"My fourth brother and I will go together tomorrow. Do you need Ah Yu to go with us?"
Shen Qi'an shook his head. "No need. I don't want the Su family to think that I am using King Jingnan to force them to compromise. Even if they agree to marry Ah Hui to me, they won't do it willingly."
Although he knew in his heart that if the Su family really agreed to this marriage, it might be half because of Pei Yu, he didn't want to do that.
"Well, fourth brother, as long as you have an idea."
After talking to him, Shen Qian'an hurried out. He wanted to go find Lin Cuicui and prepare some things for proposing marriage overnight. He would take the things to the Su family early the next morning.
Seeing how anxious he was, Shen Li almost thought he was drunk. If she hadn't smelled any alcohol on him, she would have thought that was the case.
Lin Cuicui had just returned to the yard and was about to take a shower when she heard knocks on the door.
Shen Changshan stood up and said, "Madam, I'll go and see."
"Ah."
"Old Four? Why are you here so late at night? Is something wrong?"
Shen Changshan was a little surprised when he saw Shen Qian'an. Why did he come here so late?
"Dad, has mom rested yet?"
"No, I have something to talk to your mother about. Come in and talk."
The three of them sat at the table, and the couple looked at Shen Qian'an, waiting for what he would say.
"Dad and Mom, please help your son prepare some things for the marriage proposal. Tomorrow, please accompany me to the Su family to propose marriage."
Shen Changshan and his wife looked at each other in shock. Lin Cuicui even secretly twisted Shen Changshan's arm several times under the table to make sure she was not dreaming.
Shen Changshan almost gritted his teeth in pain. The lady's grip was too strong!
"Old Four, what do you need to prepare? Go to the Su family to propose marriage?"
"Which Su family?"
Shen Qi'an stood up and looked at his parents sincerely, "Yes, my son likes the young lady from the Su family, so please ask your parents to propose marriage for me."
Lin Cuicui asked: "The young lady of the Su family you mentioned, is she Ah Li's friend, Su Zhihui?"
"Yes."
Lin Cuicui and Shen Changshan were still in shock. When did this happen? How did it get to the point of proposing marriage?
Shen Changshan wanted to ask something, but was stopped by Lin Cuicui under the table.
"Okay, I'll prepare it for you. Don't worry, I'll prepare something rich and won't humiliate Miss Su."
"Well, thank you, mom."
Seeing that he finally had a smile on his face, Lin Cuicui also smiled, "This child, the whole family has nothing to thank you for. Okay, go back and have a rest. Mother will arrange everything for you."
Watching him walk out of the yard, Zhen Changshan and Lin Cuicui were still sitting at the table, "Madam, do you think the Su family will agree?"
"You know Lao Si well. Is he the kind of person who is unsure of what he does?"
"Since he can speak to us, it must be possible."
"I guess he has liked Miss Su for a long time, but he hasn't said anything for such a long time."
Having said that, she let out a long sigh.
Shen Changshan stood up and said, "In that case, let's go prepare something for him."
"Let's go and see what else is in the storeroom. Apart from Ali's, let him use the rest first."
"Okay, I'll go with you."
The couple called a few servants, opened the door of the warehouse at night, and began to prepare the betrothal gifts. They prepared all night long, and by dawn, Lin Cuicui had finally gathered twelve betrothal gifts for Shen Qian'an.
After Shen Li got up, she went to her parents' yard and saw the mahogany box in the yard.
As expected of the fourth brother, he is so fast.
The box hasn't been closed yet, Shen Li checked it one by one. The betrothal gift is neither good nor bad. For an ordinary family, this betrothal gift is the best in the world.
But for the Su family, it was still a little too light.
"Mom, this betrothal gift..."
"Ali, I feel great."
Shen Qi'an also followed Shen Li in. After looking at the betrothal gifts, he thought they were very good. As A Li's things were not taken, these Dingxi were the most presentable things to the Shen family.
Lin Cuicui took Shen Li's hand and said, "Ah Li, this is the condition of our family at present. We have already taken out most of our things as a betrothal gift for your fourth brother."
Shen Li nodded, "Yes, mother and fourth brother have thought it through very well."
She was wrong. The Shen family was just like this. No matter how much the betrothal gift was increased, it could not catch up with the Su family's wealth.
"Ali, these things are all thanks to you. I will feel bad if I use your things. I owe Ah Hui, and I will make it up to her later."
Shen Li smiled and responded, "Okay, as long as Fourth Brother has his own plans."
Today they are going to the Su family to propose marriage, so the whole family changed into new clothes, and Pei Yu followed behind Shen Li.
"Ali, I really can't go?"
Pei Yu was a little unhappy. Why couldn't he go with them?
Shen Li was helpless. Looking at the man who was following her like a follower, she had a headache. Why was this man becoming more and more clingy?
"Ah Yu, didn't I tell you? You can't go. You are too noble. What if the Su family thinks that our Shen family is using our power to bully others?"
Pei Yu nodded, "I understand. Then I'll change my face and follow you."
Shen Li:......
So, you have to go today, right?
