Chapter 385 Joy
At this time, Su Zhihui's words made her understand the key point.
"Ali's elder brother is back too. He had not been home for a long time. When I asked her, she said he had joined the army. I was curious at the time why he suddenly wanted to join the army when he was already so old."
"I just figured it out now. It turns out that I went there with the prince."
"So, her eldest brother is back too, and the whole family is going to the capital this time?" asked Su's mother.
"Yeah, what A-Li said is correct. What's wrong, mother?"
The gentleness on Su's mother's face gradually turned into seriousness. There must be something going on.
"Tell me carefully what you saw at the Shen family today."
"Oh."
Su Zhihui didn't know why her mother wanted to know all this, but it was enough for her to know that he would not harm the Shen family. Moreover, since she had already been told about the existence of King Jingnan, there was nothing that could not be said.
Su's mother listened carefully to the details in his words, and after listening, she concluded that Prince Jingnan and the Shen family must have known each other for a long time. When did they meet?
She fumbled with the jade bracelet on her hand, recalling the life of Prince Jingnan in her mind.
Then he thought about the fact that the Shen family had fled here due to famine, and during that time, it seemed that Pei Yu had disappeared for a while. There were rumors that he had died, but he didn't expect that he had returned alive in the end.
Could it be that he got to know the Shen family at that time?
After coming to her senses and looking at her daughter eagerly, Su's mother sent her away.
"Okay, I know about this. I'll discuss it with your father when he comes back."
"No, mother, what about my marriage?"
Mother Su glanced at her and asked, "Why didn't you seem so anxious before?"
Su Zhihui murmured softly: "I don't want to rush it either. Isn't he going to the capital? Mother, don't you know what the capital is?"
"There are many beautiful girls there. If Shen Qianan falls in love with them, where can I go to cry?"
Seeing her daughter suddenly becoming unconfident, Su's mother realized that her daughter really liked the man named Shen Qian'an.
She was just focusing on other things and ignored one problem.
"Ah Hui, I'm going to ask you a question, answer it honestly."
Su Zhihui nodded, "Mom, go ahead."
"Does Shen Qi'an like you?"
Su Zhihui blushed when she heard this, and said shyly, "How can you ask that, mother?"
Mother Su was helpless when she saw her like this, "Ahui, you always tell me that."
"I talked to him in a teahouse before and asked him what kind of women he likes." When she said this, she felt a little disappointed and her voice became much softer.
"He said he likes lively and cheerful women, but I'm not one of them?"
Su's mother's mouth twitched. She had never asked her daughter to become a lady from a wealthy family, but somehow she had to put herself into this frame and even thought she was doing very well.
"And what else did he say?"
"Well, he also asked me what kind of person I thought I was. My daughter gave him a sachet she made herself, and he didn't refuse."
Having said that, he suddenly remembered what he said to Ali in the tea room, and his face turned red.
Su's mother asked: "Did you hear what he said?"
"Well, later when my daughter returned to the tea room and wanted to tell Ah Li something, she heard the brother and sister talking about it. He told Ah Li in person that he liked me."
Su's mother breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was not her silly daughter who liked the other person unilaterally.
If someone doesn't like her, given her current state, I don't know how long it will take her to get over it.
However, she didn't know Shen Qian'an or the Shen family very well, so she would put it aside for now and make plans after she understood them clearly.
"Okay, go and have a rest. Let me be alone for a while. Remember to come over for dinner later."
"Okay," Su Zhihui stood up and looked back at her mother as she walked away. What if her mother tried to break up the couple?
No matter how slowly she walked, the room was limited and she soon reached the yard.
Before she returned to her own yard, she saw her elder brother in the garden. She moved very carefully, trying not to disturb Su Heng, but it did not go as she wished.
"stop."
Su Zhihui turned around with a cute smile on her face, "What a coincidence, brother, why are you here?"
Su Heng glanced at her and imitated her tone, "You are so fake!"
"Hehe, brother, what do you want me to do?"
"It's nothing, I just want you to settle the score."
Su Zhihui took several steps back and looked at her elder brother warily, "What are you going to settle, elder brother?"
"What do you say?"
Su Zhihui did not argue, "Brother, I will help you in the future. If you find a girl you like and your parents don't agree, I will help you."
Su Heng's mouth twitched, "You are really a good daughter to your parents."
Su Zhihui pouted, "Brother, this is not okay and that is not okay, what are you going to do?"
Very good, now it's his fault.
……
Shen Li was supported by her mother and walked out of Pei Yu's yard. After walking for a while, she spoke: "Mom, I'm not drunk."
Lin Cuicui didn't believe it, "With so much wine, you two didn't get drunk?"
"Well, not drunk, just half drunk."
After saying that, Shen Li broke free from her hand to prove to her that she was not drunk.
"Okay, okay, mom knows. Remember to drink the hangover soup later, or you'll have a headache tomorrow morning."
"Well, I understand, mother. I won't go back now. I'll go to Fourth Brother's yard."
"Why are you still looking for your fourth brother so late at night? Can't we talk about it tomorrow?"
Although he said this, he still helped her walk towards Shen Qi'an's yard.
"Mom, I have something to talk to my fourth brother about. You should go back first."
"it is good."
The child has grown up and has his own secrets, and Lin Cuicui has no intention of finding out.
Shen Li knocked on the courtyard gate and it was Yang Fan who came to open the door. The light in the study was still on and Shen Qian'an was still reading in the study.
"KouKou~"
"Fourth brother, it's me, can I come in?"
"come in."
Shen Li pushed the door open and saw him still reading a thick book.
"Fourth brother, you are still reading so late, please be careful of your eyes."
Shen Qi placed a bookmark and closed the book. "No problem. I'll take a break for 15 minutes after reading for 25 minutes."
Of course, this quarter of an hour of rest is not really for rest, but for doing other things.
"Ali, it's so late and you're not going to rest yet. What's the matter with you coming to Fourth Brother's place?"
Shen Li found a seat and sat down, neither too far nor too close to him, making sure he could hear her talking but without being bothered by the smell of alcohol on her body.
"Fourth brother, Ah Hui came today and told me something. She said her mother wanted her to get married as soon as possible."
Shen Li changed Su Zhihui's words a little bit, but the meaning was basically the same.
"I suggest that she tell her parents that she has someone she likes."
