"I don't care!" Xie Songhua analyzed with him seriously, "Then who would care? Only those who really like you and hope to be in love with you will care. You and me, that marriage certificate is like
Two businessmen entered into a contract.
The key is that you need to marry a daughter-in-law, and I need to marry a man, and the parents of our two families are interested in it and they are well-matched, so here is our contract! It can maximize benefits and everyone involved will be happy.
Isn’t it great?”
Ye Rongshi looked at the chattering girl in front of him, and the turmoil in his heart since he returned that day finally calmed down.
He nodded, "Okay, that's it, you will be my wife, and I...I will marry you."
After all, she still couldn't say that he was her husband.
Xie Songhua can completely understand this feeling, after all, it goes against her original intention.
But she was still happy. Ever since she learned that marriage was discussed so early in this era, the worries that had been lingering in her heart were finally solved.
It was probably because the smile on her face was so bright that Ye Rongshi couldn't help but feel suspicious, "You...you don't care about your marriage so much?"
Xie Songhua raised his eyebrows and looked in a good mood, "Isn't that what I care about?! I've thought about it carefully for a long time!"
Ye Rongshi was silent for a while, and finally nodded again, "Okay, don't worry, once you get married, apart from... feelings, I will try my best to do what a husband should do."
"Eh?! Stop it!" Xie Songhua quickly stretched out his hand, "I don't say this casually. In the eyes of others, we are husband and wife, but we should know in our hearts that we are just a cooperative relationship, and at most we are just friends!
Don't think that after you get married, you have to restrain yourself, it doesn't matter! Just continue to be as you were before. As long as we cooperate seamlessly in front of outsiders, it will be regarded as fulfilling the contract. You must not use the word husband
Put it on yourself."
It would be really troublesome if you were deceived later.
Xie Songhua just cursed the last words in his heart and did not really say them out.
But her words made Ye Rongshi feel completely relieved. The hesitation that had been hanging on his face from the beginning to the present finally disappeared and was replaced by a hearty smile.
He completely returned to his previous appearance, stretched out his hand and patted Xie Songhua's shoulder, "Okay! I read you right."
"That's right!"
As soon as the two people made an agreement, Xie Langhua came over. After his eyes wandered around the two people, the look in his eyes towards Xie Songhua was still a little different after all.
Xie Songhua couldn't explain what was in that look for a while, but it made her feel warm and a little unexplainable at the same time.
Having successfully solved his life-long event, Xie Songhua had to consider leaving here in the future.
After this period of time, she actively worked hard to explore and expand, and her living room was no longer enough, and even the gap between the back and the courtyard wall was filled with her various things.
After Xie Songhua drew a volume of drawings and specially found someone to custom-make a model of normal human size and sent it to his elder, he was very generous and even wrote a detailed volume of his acupuncture experience.
Although this ancient text made it a little more difficult for Xie Songhua to understand it, she still read it conscientiously every day.
Fortunately, although Yu Ruzhuo was very busy, she still had an hour or two left, so she took this opportunity to ask him something she really didn't understand.
She suspected that because of her powerful skills, Yu Ruzhuo already knew a lot about medical things.
After sorting it out all day, at night, she finished pasting the last stack of labels and was very tired.
There was still calligraphy to practice, and when I returned to the desk, I found that all the paper, ink, pen, and inkstone were ready.
The person opposite actually took some document and was processing it. Xie Songhua didn't know what was in it, but he saw Yu Ruzhuo holding a small pen and annotating something on it.
Could it be that Yu Ruzhuo is actually a high official?
Thinking about it this way, it seems to make sense. After all, she has been out so many times, and she has never heard of anyone named Yu in the capital.
And the temperament displayed by Yu Ruzhuo is clearly not from an ordinary family.
So……
To put it another way, he is an official in the capital...
It doesn't seem quite right. How can an official be sick for so long and still have to deal with things when he can't go back?
I'm afraid the seat has already been taken by someone else.
"You've settled your marriage with that boy from the Ye family, and you're so happy that you can't even stop practicing calligraphy?"
Xie Songhua was startled by his sudden voice. The pen in his hand shook and a puddle of ink fell on the paper. He had to put down the pen again and quickly changed the paper.
Then he complained: "You didn't even say a word before you spoke. You scared me."
She turned back to the night she wanted to copy, and then said: "I'm not thinking about my young father-in-law, I'm thinking about you. You told me last time that you were leaving soon, why do you still look like this?
Slowly and leisurely, aren't you excited?
Also, have you figured out why you appear in my ring?"
"It's my ring."
Xie Songhua was in a good mood today, so he deliberately stretched out his left hand to show off, "Is it yours? Then you call it and see if it agrees."
"childish."
"Hmph!" Xie Songhua retracted his hand proudly, "I don't care. If you go back, I won't return this ring to you. This thing is very expensive at first glance. Just think that I raised you.
It’s a reward you’ve earned for working for so long!”
"Speak nicely."
"Okay, just think of it as a souvenir of this wonderful experience."
Yu Ruzhuo was silent for a while, then softly responded, "Yeah."
Xie Songhua stopped talking and continued practicing calligraphy with concentration.
Halfway through writing, the person opposite suddenly spoke again, "I want to ask you a question."
Fortunately, this time her mind was stable enough, so she didn't let this sudden sentence stain the almost finished piece of paper.
She carefully put the pen back on the pen holder and flattened both sides with a paperweight before nodding, "What's the problem?"
"Have you ever considered a possibility?"
Yu Ruzhuo's tone was a little hesitant, as if he didn't know how to ask.
Such a situation rarely happened to him, so Xie Songhua became more and more curious and simply waited seriously.
"You said that you haven't met the person you like right now, so in the bottom of your heart you don't care who you marry. The key is that you said you are cooperative. Then... if you get married to that boy from the Ye family, you meet someone like you again.
Where is the person you like?"
Yu Ruzhuo rarely speaks in such long paragraphs. Once he speaks like this, it means that what he is talking about is an issue that he is seriously thinking about at the moment.
The expression on Xie Songhua's face gradually stiffened, and her eyes slowly moved from the void across the way to the table across the way, and then to the paper that was slowly drying in front of her eyes.
After a while, she heard her own voice, floating in the air, "I don't know either."
