188, self-knowledge

"What...what does it mean?" Deng Yarong was stunned, not understanding the second sentence of Xu Shu.

"She wants me alone!" Xu Shu stretched out a finger, "So she was anxious when Master Qi was about to come with her just now, because she didn't want Master Qi to come and break her plan! And someone would probably come to call you away after a while. As for the reason for asking you to leave, it was probably because your mother had something to ask you to come and ask you to do it!"

"Why?" Deng Yarong widened his eyes, not knowing whether he didn't understand what Xu Shu said or did not understand Wan's plan.

Xu Shu did not explain, but asked, "Did Mrs. Qi look for you before the meal? What did she tell you? Let me guess, it must be related to Mr. Qi, right? She must have been very satisfied with you, and even revealed that if it weren't for the marriage of the late emperor, she would have made you her daughter-in-law. Is it right?"

Almost exactly the same, Deng Yarong was a little shocked, "You... did you eavesdrop on me talking to my aunt?"

"Is it necessary to eavesdrop?" Xu Shu smiled, "Your thoughts are written on your face, and you can see them in person. You can be led by someone in a word or two. It's easy for others to use you!"

"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm stupid?" Deng Yarong retorted angrily, "You're not much better!"

"I'm different from you. I know you have a plan for me. I'm willing to come here with you, and you're being used as a gun by someone else!" Unfortunately, the gun that Wan picked was too blunt.

"Did you say that my aunt used me to bring you here?" Deng Yarong still understood this sentence, but she was still a little slight understanding of the whole thing.

"It seems that you are not hopelessly stupid yet!"

Xu Shu's half-blowing tone angered Deng Yarong, "What you said is your guess, what about the evidence?"

"Evidence? The evidence comes soon!" Xu Shu pointed outside the door.

Deng Yarong looked over and saw two maids coming here. The maid came in and saluted and said to Deng Yarong, "Miss cousin, Mrs. Deng is looking for you, please go there quickly!"

Xu Shu said it! And it's true!

Deng Yarong looked at Xu Shu, then looked at the two maids, hesitating whether he should get up.

Xu Shu suddenly held her ears, "If you want to know, will you have a child next? If you want to know, stay, but if you are afraid, then leave!"

"Who is afraid! Stay there if you stay!" Deng Yarong said to the two maids in anger, "You go back, I will go to find my mother later!"

The maid looked at each other and wanted to say something else, but Deng Yarong knocked them away, "What are you still standing here? Why don't you go quickly!"

The maids left helplessly.

Deng Yarong looked at Xu Shu and asked in confusion and a little uneasy, "Auntie, is she really using me?" Wan's kind smile and intimate tone really couldn't be true anymore. How could he be lying to her?

"Some people are good to you, but they may not be really good to you, and some people are bad to you may not be really bad to you!" Xu Shuyu said with mystery, "You have to thank me after today. I have helped you two great things today!"

"What can you help me?" Deng Yarong muttered for a moment of confusion, "I don't want your help, let alone thank you!"

"That's your business!" Xu Shu curled the corners of her mouth, as simple as Deng Yarong, and she took the bait as soon as she was excited. No wonder Wan took the risk of thunder and wanted to use her. Isn't it a waste to be so advantageous?

Xu Shu hugged her arms leisurely and suddenly said, "What did Mrs. Qi tell you? You can make Miss Deng Wu, who is above the top, willing to work hard for her. After suffering so much cold eyes from me, you will not retreat at all!"

"You don't have to worry about it!" Deng Yarong glanced at Xu Shu viciously, turned her head, but she was both confused and sad. There was a voice in her heart that told her that Xu Shu was right. Her aunt was using her, but she didn't want to believe that this was true. She liked her fourth cousin so much. For the sake of her fourth cousin, she could endure any kind of suffering and tolerate any sin. As long as she could marry her fourth cousin, even if she was exploited, she would be willing to do so! Yes, what her aunt said was not completely wrong. As long as Xu Shu couldn't marry her fourth cousin, she would still have a chance, right? So no matter whether her aunt was using her, it would be good for her to convince Xu Shu to give up her fourth cousin!

Deng Yarong took a deep breath, suddenly sat next to Xu Shu, and spoke very seriously, "You can't marry your fourth cousin!"

"What did Mrs. Qi tell you?" Xu Shu raised her eyebrows. If she hadn't had too many interactions with Deng Yarong, she would have been shocked by her in such a gloomy and calm manner.

Deng Yarong did not refute, but agreed, "You are a blind man and are not worthy of your fourth cousin!"

Xu Shu felt that Deng Yarong's serious look was a little funny, and she wanted to tease her, "You're worried, this is my business, you don't need to worry about it!"

"You!" Deng Yarong stood up in anger. After a while, remembering his purpose of finding Xu Shu, he sat down in shame again and said earnestly, "I'm for your own good! You have seen it myself. The fourth cousin doesn't like you, and he will be angry even if he mentions your name. It's not sweet to force melon. Even if you force him to marry you, he will not treat you kindly, and your life will not be easy in the future!"

"What you said seems to be quite reasonable!" Xu Shu nodded in agreement.

Deng Yarong was happy and continued to work hard, "I know you are also a arrogant person, and you must not be willing to be wronged for the rest of your life, right?"

Xu Shu nodded, "So what can I do? The late emperor gave the marriage, and I can't control it!"

"There are ways, there are ways!" Deng Yarong was overjoyed. Xu Shu happened to talk about the most difficult key point for her to say. "Granting marriage is a favor of two surnames. You don't have to let you marry your fourth cousin, you can also marry... Marry someone else, as long as you are from the Qi family!"

There was a name Deng Yarong almost blurted out, but he still felt it was too sudden and swallowed it again.

"For example? Who else can you marry except Mr. Qi? " Xu Shu didn't give her a chance to swallow it.

"For example, my cousin is OK, too!" Deng Yarong couldn't help it.

Xu Shu smiled, "Is this what Mrs. Qi taught you? She hinted that as long as I don't marry Mr. Qi, you will have a chance, right?"

"So what?" Deng Yarong simply did not hide it. "What my aunt said was the truth. You are incomplete and not worthy of your fourth cousin. When my aunt saw you pitiful, she was willing to betroth you to her eldest cousin. She didn't want you to be lonely and helpless for the rest of your life. She could help me and my fourth cousin. What's wrong with this best of both worlds!"

"A fool, you don't even know that you've been sold! Let's go and see how ridiculous the best of both worlds is!"
