Chapter 097
Ms. Huang, whom Mr. He Qing loved deeply, was also a new-style woman born in a noble family in the south of the Yangtze River. She lived in Hangzhou and was the elder sister of Liu Yufang and Li Shuzhen.
This touched Li Shuzhen greatly.
In her mind, this arranged marriage is like a scourge.
However, when it comes to free love, Li Shuzhen has never experienced it, not even a boy she likes.
There were many suitors, young and old, but none of them could catch her eye.
Except for Chen Tianhua, whom I only met a few times.
From the Chinese New Year to the present, she has been trying her best to resist her father's authority, even to the point of death. This is completely due to her rebellious psychology.
Yesterday, Chen Tianhua showed up, and he happened to need her help too.
On a sudden thought, she and he each played the role of lovers, with only one purpose, of course to deal with their domineering father.
Yesterday evening, Li Cunzhi was on the third floor of the police station. After arguing with his daughter for a while, he didn't get even an inch of advantage.
He rushed to the guest reception room angrily, and when he looked at Chen Tianhua at the door, Li Shuzhen was frightened.
She thought her father would pull out a gun.
Perhaps it was Chen Tianhua's very calm performance that was neither humble nor overbearing, which instantly calmed Li Cunzhi and calmed him down. He even proposed the idea of going to Li's Mansion today to settle the matter at first sight.
Li Shuzhen did not expect that what was originally a temporary act of anger would turn out to be that her father would really want to conduct a comprehensive investigation of Chen Tianhua.
That can only allow him to continue playing the role.
Unexpectedly, Chen Tianhua succeeded.
The parents at the scene were very satisfied. It is said that he even sang a song called "Beautiful Hometown" on the spot, which made his mother very happy and appreciated it very much.
Deacon Sun had just told her what happened in the inn earlier, and also said that Young Master Chen was a talented young man with both civil and military skills.
Suddenly, the image of a future husband vaguely appeared in her mind, and it turned out to be Chen Tianhua, which felt a bit like a lie becoming real.
This is the image of a man in her mind, tall and straight, polite, both civil and military.
Now when she was about to face him, her character was confused for a moment, and she suddenly felt very shy.
"What's wrong with you, Qianhua? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
While she was talking, Chen Tianhua had already approached the bed, and when he saw her red cheeks, as if she had a high fever, he was really shocked.
"I'm fine, please sit down."
Li Shuzhen rubbed her cheeks with her hands like an old cat burning its whiskers, pouted and chewed on the round waist drum stool specially designed for the dressing table in front of the bed.
Chen Tianhua slowly sat down and looked around habitually.
This was his first time entering the boudoir of a lady from a prominent family in the late Qing Dynasty.
In a room of more than 30 square meters, there is a large mahogany bed with carved phoenixes, a footrest, a high-waist toilet, and bedside tables.
There is a dressing table standing against the wall and several large camphor wood boxes, stacked on top of each other.
There is also a small round table and two round stools in the middle of the room.
Surrounded by flower stands, there are several pots of flowers.
"How is it? Are my parents satisfied?" Li Shuzhen spoke first.
"Well, judging by my appearance, I passed the interview and both elders are very satisfied. So what else do I need to do next?"
Chen Tianhua finally withdrew his eyes, nodded and smiled at Li Shuzhen, but secretly thought: This should be considered as completing his mission.
His last sentence was actually a redundant polite comment.
"What do I need you to do? Just do whatever you have to do!" Li Shuzhen lowered her head and stroked the corner of her clothes, glanced at Chen Tianhua, and muttered.
Now Chen Tianhua could understand that Li Shuzhen wanted him to continue playing the role until the end of the show.
As for how it will end later, according to his estimation, nine out of ten the mystery will appear when Li Shuzhen goes abroad to study abroad.
Because there are many uncertain factors here, it can be said that Li Shuzhen fell in love with someone else, and the relationship between them ended.
Neither could her parents.
"No problem, I will continue to play a good role. You can rest assured, Qianhua." Chen Tianhua raised his chest and raised his head, replying very loyally.
After hearing what he said, Li Shuzhen continued to play the role well. She held her head high and her chest high, as if she was ready to go through fire and water at any time. She couldn't help but let out a "porch..." and laughed to herself.
She quickly covered her mouth and turned away.
"What's wrong?" Chen Tianhua was shocked.
"What's the matter, silly, giggle..."
Li Shuzhen put down her hand, simply giggled out loud, without any hesitation, her charming eyes drifted over to scold him.
This time Li Shuzhen looked at him affectionately, and Chen Tianhua saw it really clearly.
His love, which had been dormant for a year, suddenly seemed to be electrocuted. It jumped twice and seemed to be resurrected.
Based on intuition, Li Shuzhen seems to have some strange feelings towards him, so he should seriously examine his relationship with her.
When it comes to Li Shuzhen's conditions in all aspects, they are definitely top-notch.
She looks lively and cute, with fair skin, a pair of big talkative almond eyes, two small dimples, slender hands, and a tall figure.
The level of knowledge is outstanding in today's society.
The noble family is also in line with the supportive environment in pursuing his goals in this life.
Previously, he was in love with Liu Yufang, but now she is a famous beauty and she is not in love with him. Besides, she is not in love with him. He has a pitiful unrequited love.
It's time to consider moving on.
"What are you thinking about, idiot?" Seeing that he was in a daze, she couldn't help but laugh again.
The corners of her lips were slightly raised, her smile was shy and shy, and her slender eyelashes lightly covered her eyes, covering the slight smugness in her eyes.
"What are you thinking about? I'm thinking about you." Now that Chen Tianhua was silent on her, he gradually relaxed, staring at her with a bright smile.
"What are you looking at, idiot."
"You are so beautiful, Qianhua, I can't help myself..."
"..."
The two of them got close to each other and were flirting, but the maid Xiaocui, who was quietly standing at the door, had a full view of them.
She blushed and hesitated, but still knocked on the door.
"Third Miss, someone is looking for Mr. Chen at the gate."
"Looking for Hua Zhi...yours." Li Shuzhen pushed the demented Chen Tianhua.
"The one who's looking for me...who did he say he was?" Chen Tianhua was startled after hearing this.
He is now in the Li Mansion, no one knows this.
Could it be that Lin Gen and the others are cowards again, causing some trouble?
He is really a guy who fails in many things and fails in many things.
"I can't tell clearly. Come and take a look for yourself." Xiao Cui muttered.
"Let's... go to the balcony and have a look." Li Shuzhen took the initiative to take Chen Tianhua's hand and walked to the balcony outside the house.
The contact between soft and smooth skin made Chen Tianhua tremble as if he was electrocuted, and a long-lost warm feeling came to his heart.
The two of them walked to the corridor and balcony holding hands and looked in the direction of Xiao Cui's finger.
I saw the side door of Li's Mansion opened wide, and two carriages entered the courtyard. Many servants of Li's Mansion were helping to carry the things loaded on the cars.
Wine jars, bowls and basins, large porcelain plates... filled with chicken, duck and fish...
These fine wines and delicacies are being brought to the kitchen of Li's house.
"Who sent the banquet? Did our family order it?" Li Shuzhen said in shock.
In her memory, there was a chef at home, and his skills were pretty good. She had never seen anyone ordering a table from outside and having it delivered to the house.
"Oh, I know what's going on. Come on... let's go down." Chen Tianhua slapped his forehead.
