Chapter 379 A strange combination of circumstances
Su Zhihui often came to visit Shen Li, and the Shen family's doorman had known her for a long time. He originally wanted to go in and report, but when he thought about the good relationship between Miss Su and his young lady, he took his people in.
When she arrived outside the reception room, she heard some noise inside. Su Zhihui's eyes suddenly lit up because she recognized Shen Qian'an's voice among the noisy voices inside.
The servant asked them to wait outside the door for a while while he went in to inform them, but he didn't dare to bring the person in without informing them.
"Master and Madam, Master Su and Miss Su are here, looking for Miss."
Shen Changshan looked at Shen Li and said, "Ali, should I invite the person in or take him to your yard?"
Dad was worried that they would see the corn, but now it has become like this, no one will recognize what it is.
Shen Li looked at her fourth brother, not sure who he was looking for.
He looked at the servant and said, "Please bring him in."
"Yes."
We were originally in the dining room, but since we had guests it would be inappropriate to stay in the restaurant, so we led them to the reception room and simply ate corn rice there since there was plenty of space here.
When Su Heng and Su Zhihui came in, they saw them sitting in the side hall with bowls in front of them, and they seemed to be eating something.
Su Heng paused slightly. Did he disturb them?
"Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen, my sister and I are sorry for disturbing you today."
Shen Changshan laughed, "Don't bother me. You are friends of A-Li and Qi'an, so it's not a bother. Come and play often when you have time. It will be more lively with more people."
"Okay, I will come to discuss academic matters with Brother Shen more often when I have time."
"this…"
Shen Changshan looked at Shen Qian'an and Shen Li. He didn't know whether to tell Su Heng about this.
Su Heng naturally noticed their exchange of glances. He had long taken in the scene in the room, and he also saw what was in the middle of the round table and in the bowls in front of them.
The thing was the color of corn, but there were some differences in appearance. It was uneven in size, some were thick and some were thin.
"Ali, Qi An, take Master Su and Miss Su to sit in the main hall. It's a bit messy here."
"it is good."
Shen Qi'an stood up and said, "Brother Su, Miss Su, please come this way."
Shen Changshan looked at her a few more times. Ah Li hadn't stood up yet. When did Lao Si become so anxious? If his classmates hadn't been here, he would have almost thought it was because of Miss Su.
Seeing this, Shen Li stood up and went over to take Su Zhihui aside, while the others continued in the side hall.
"Ahui, why did you come to see me today?"
Su Zhihui followed behind her, with a handkerchief in her hand twisted into a mess. She was a little hesitant and was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
Shen Li took her to the garden and sat down. The Shen family's garden was planted with some flowers and trees, as well as some vegetables. The garden was divided into two parts, with flowers and trees and vegetables each occupying half.
"Ahui, just say whatever you want to say. There's no one else here."
Su Zhihui nodded and said shyly, "Ah, Ah Li, my eldest brother said that Fourth Brother Shen dropped out of the academy. Why?"
Shen Li had long guessed that she came because of Fourth Brother's matter. After all, apart from Fourth Brother's matters, she rarely acted so shy.
"You can't say he dropped out of school. Fourth brother has a better choice. People who study can't do both. Besides, the Imperial College will be of greater help to him now. So, he can only drop out of Lushan Academy first."
It's not that he doesn't want to graduate, but the time he has spent in the academy is not enough. Or maybe he can graduate from the academy if he passes the imperial examination.
"Imperial Imperial College?"
Su Zhihui's eyes widened as she muttered these three words. It was not that she looked down on the Shen family, but it was very difficult to get a place in the Imperial College. The Shen family had some money, but this amount of money could not buy an admission place in the Imperial College.
The Su family can only bring one person to the Imperial College, so naturally it is not the eldest brother's turn.
"Ali, have you been deceived?"
Seeing the worry on her face, it looked like they had been cheated.
"No, Ah Hui, this quota is real."
Su Zhihui nodded as if she believed it or not. Shen Li was not the kind of person who made random comments. If she could be so sure, it must be a fortuitous encounter.
"That's good. I thought something happened to your fourth brother." Su Zhihui's face flushed and she spoke hesitantly, obviously embarrassed.
Shen Li nodded, "I understand, so you are not here to see me today."
There was a hint of depression on his face as he spoke, "Ever since you fell in love with my fourth brother, I have been ranked behind him."
Su Zhihui's face turned even redder when she heard her blunt words, and she quickly explained, "No, Ah Li, don't be angry, you were in front of your fourth brother."
Afraid that she wouldn't believe me, I almost raised my finger and swore.
Shen Li quickly stopped her hand and said, "Okay, I'm just teasing you. I'm not angry."
"Really?"
"Well, let me tell you something."
Su Zhihui sat up straight in an instant, "You say."
"I'm engaged."
After one breath, two breaths, or more than thirty breaths, there was no response. Shen Li pushed her arm.
Su Zhihui came back to her senses and asked in a daze, "Ali, what did you just say?"
"Are you engaged?"
"Why so sudden?"
"who is that?"
"When did it happen?"
"Do I know him? Or have I seen him?"
At this point, she suddenly remembered that there were two young men with outstanding temperament in the side hall just now. Could he be one of them?
Hearing her series of questions, Shen Li knew that she was stunned by this sudden news.
"You don't know him. He was sitting in the side hall just now, the one in black. Do you have any impression of him?"
Su Zhihui thought about the scene she had just seen. She was so busy looking at Shen Qian'an that she only glanced at the two young men. Now, thinking back carefully, the young man in black had a powerful aura and a natural noble air. He was not an ordinary person.
At the very least, he had met so many young masters from aristocratic families, and few of them could compare to him.
"Ali, that's not an ordinary person."
Shen Li glanced at her appreciatively, "Not bad, I didn't realize you have such good taste."
Su Zhihui raised her chin slightly, "That's right, although I'm not very smart, my vision is still good."
These words sounded like he was praising Shen Li for her good vision, but also like he was praising himself.
"Hey, A-li, tell me quickly, where does he come from?"
I am really curious about what kind of person can have such momentum. Now that I think about it, it was he who got Shen Qian'an a place in the Imperial College.
"You haven't seen him, but you should have heard of his name. His name is Pei Yu."
"Oh, Pei Yu, what, Pei Yu!"
The voice of the latter sentence was obviously much louder, and the man stood up from the table abruptly, with a look of surprise on his face, even more surprised than when he heard the time of Shen Qian'an and Lu Guo just now.
Looking at Shen Li who was sitting there with a calm expression, he asked again: "A Li, did I hear it right? It's that Pei Yu, Jingnan King Pei Yu?"
"Well, it's him."
Su Zhihui swallowed a few times and slowly sat down on the table. She was really surprised that two people who had nothing in common could end up together by accident.
