Chapter 107 Let’s Try Getting Along
Xia Yingying was speechless at Lu Ziren's question.
She sighed, not wanting to answer the question.
In this era, writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone are extremely expensive. She is not going to take the imperial examination, but just learning to read. At the beginning stage, there is no need to spend so much money on such expensive things. It is better to lay a solid foundation first, and then start writing with writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone when she has more money. This way she can save a little.
Even if she can make money now, thrift is a virtue and there is no need to spend unnecessary money.
"What's wrong?" Xia Yingying asked puzzledly.
"No, I'm just curious." Lu Ziren also realized that the question he asked was a bit stupid, so he began to change the subject, "My family didn't have any money at the time, and I learned to read using a sand table."
"Oh." Xia Yingying responded perfunctorily and couldn't help but yawning with her hand covering her mouth.
"By the way, today Haoran asked us not to get divorced, maybe we can try to be together?" Seeing that Xia Yingying was not interested, Lu Ziren immediately changed the subject and said it carefully.
But Lu Ziren's words were too straightforward. Xia Yingying was sobered by his words. She sat up from the bed, stared at him with her watery eyes, and asked stutteringly, "Are you...are you serious?"
"Of course it's true." Lu Ziren nodded without any hesitation.
Xia Yingying is completely different from before. He is not averse to being with her. The most important thing is that she is good to children and can calm his nightmares.
If he remembered correctly, Xia Yingying really wanted them to be together before.
Xia Yingying's mouth twitched. She immediately stretched out her hand to Erkang: "No, absolutely not!"
No, she absolutely won't accept it.
She could accept cooperating with Lu Ziren to raise a child and they could each get what they wanted, but she couldn't be a real couple with Lu Ziren. There was no love between her and Lu Ziren, and she felt that such things required love.
Lu Ziren must have that need when he said that. When Xia Yingying thought of this, she couldn't help but shudder.
"If you really can't help it, I can help you find a concubine. What do you think?" Xia Yingying said after a moment of hesitation.
After hearing what Xia Yingying said, Lu Ziren's face immediately turned dark.
What do you mean by "I can't help it, concubine?" What kind of lewd words are these? Is he so impatient in Xia Yingying's mind?
Seeing that Lu Ziren didn't say anything, Xia Yingying panicked for a moment, and hurriedly explained: "I think it's better for us to maintain our current relationship. Didn't we agree at the beginning that we are just partners? If you feel that the current relationship makes you uncomfortable, we can divorce."
Xia Yingying emphasized the words "cooperation" and "divorce", hinting at the true relationship between Lu Ziren and them. She really didn't want to break the balance.
"Don't worry about the concubine. I will find you a beautiful, kind and capable one. If you have any requirements, you can tell me and I will help you find one.
Seeing that Lu Ziren didn't say anything, Xia Yingying thought he was still thinking about becoming a real couple with her. She was about to continue talking, but Lu Ziren turned over and stood in front of Xia Yingying, covering her mouth with his hand.
Xia Yingying became even more panicked now. She quickly grabbed Lu Ziren's hand and bit it hard.
Her mouth was filled with the taste of blood, she became scared and tried to push Lu Ziren away.
Lu Ziren frowned and scolded, "Don't move. If you move again, I don't know what I will do to you."
Xia Yingying was so frightened that her whole body froze. She immediately stopped moving, like a puppet.
"Don't talk. Just listen to me now, okay?" Lu Ziren looked at Xia Yingying, and Xia Yingying closed her eyes.
"Don't worry, I won't force you to do anything. After a while, I will return to the capital to report on my work, and then the house will be left to you to take care of. When I say that we should be a real couple, I mean that you can treat me as your marriage partner and see if it's suitable for you. What do you think?"
The idea of making Xia Yingying Lu Ziran's real wife came to him after Chen Yi said that he envied him.
Over the years, he always felt like he was living like a walking corpse. After his rebirth, he felt so different every day with Xia Yingying. In Xia Yingying, he felt the warmth and stability he had not felt for a long time, and even hoped that he could be wrapped in such things for the rest of his life.
Xia Yingying was stunned. She didn't expect Lu Ziren to make such a request. Has he fallen in love with her?
Xia Yingying frowned and thought about it.
She was quickly rejected. The original owner had tried so hard to seduce him, but Lu Ziren was unmoved. How could he suddenly fall in love with her?
Wait, she and the original owner are two different people. I believe Lu Ziren has felt it too.
Could it be that during this period, Lu Ziren saw her working diligently at home to make money and thought she was an ideal wife and mother, so he decided to keep her as a long-term free nanny?
Also, he is young and full of energy, and it is normal for him to have needs, so he wants to satisfy those needs?
Is there any other aspect?
The reason why Lu Ziren agreed to give it a try with her was definitely not because of her appearance, otherwise the original owner would have succeeded long ago.
Or is he looking for a partner?
Xia Yingying looked at Lu Ziren suspiciously. Seeing Xia Yingying's expression change again and again, Lu Ziren didn't know what she was thinking. He silently waited for Xia Yingying's decision and emphasized: "You can ask me anything you want to ask."
Xia Yingying asked the questions in her mind.
Lu Ziren found it funny to hear her suspicion of him, "I have some feelings for you now, so I want to try to get along with you. Don't worry, I won't do anything to you that you don't want to do. Can you give me this chance?"
"I promise you, but I have the final say on whether it will succeed or not. Do you agree?" Xia Yingying hesitated for a moment and then nodded.
Although she doesn't like Lu Ziren now, she thinks Lu Ziren is a man worthy of trust.
After a while, she will go to the county town to do business, and maybe even go to the capital to do business in the future, and she will need Lu Ziren.
There is no problem in having a good relationship with Lu Ziren. Besides, she just agreed to give it a try with him. It is up to her to decide whether it will succeed or not. It won't cost her anything to give it a try, so just give it a try.
"Well, I agree. Then I can sleep in your bed today."
Lu Ziren climbed up from the floor and walked towards Xia Yingying's bed. Xia Yingying was stunned and quickly scolded, "Wait! What are you doing? You said you wouldn't go against my wishes, what do you mean?"
Lu Ziren raised his eyebrows and looked at Xia Yingying in confusion: "Didn't you say we should give it a try? Since we want to try to get along as a couple, we should slowly get familiar with each other. Will a couple sleep in separate beds? No, don't worry, I promised you that I won't move before you agree, and I will keep my word."
Xia Yingying was so shocked by Lu Ziren's eloquence that she stood there in a daze.
No, shouldn't it just be a test run between a young couple? How did it become a test run between a husband and wife?
What exactly is going on?
Oh God, oh earth, who can tell her what is going on?
While Xia Yingying was still thinking about what was going on, Lu Ziren had already lifted Xia Yingying's quilt with ease and lay down next to her.
"You...you go down...this is not your bed..."
Lu Ziren touched Xia Yingying's head, rubbed it, and said softly, "Be good, it's getting late, go to bed."
As he said this, he held Xia Yingying in his arms and fell asleep with his eyes closed. "Love is always there, can you vote for me?"
