Chapter 56: The Beloved Wife at the Beginning (Part 2)
Xun's mansion, in the garden.
But it was said that Li Zhi was attracted by the scenery in front of him, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. He breathed a long sigh of relief and woke up from this artistic conception.
Seeing Xun Yuan on the side, he suddenly came back to his senses and blamed himself in his heart for being so rude to the beauty.
Then, Li Zhi quickly apologized and said: "I have been waiting for you for a long time, but my brother was fascinated by the beauty. I was in a trance for a moment, but it was my fault. I apologize to you here."
Xun Yuan shook her head when she heard this.
"Brother, you don't have to be like this. Every time someone comes to my father's garden, they are as fascinated by it as I am.
Brother Shi can come back to his senses in such a short period of time, he is already a man of great perseverance, so there is no need to apologize."
When Li Zhi heard this strange thing, he was quite curious and asked: "Brother Wen Ruo, has he been to this garden before? How long did it take for him to wake up?"
When Xun Yuan heard his question, she pursed her red lips and shook her head.
"Brother Wenruo has never been here."
"oh?"
Hearing Xun Yuan say that Xun had never been here, Li Zhi asked with some confusion: "Brother Wen Ruo, why don't you come here? But what are the taboos here?"
Xun Yuan looked hesitant when she heard this. She glanced at Li Zhi and saw that his face was full of curiosity. After hesitating for a while, she bit her red lips and replied: "There are no taboos here.
It’s just that when my father was young, he had some misunderstandings with the clan leader due to the dispute between his direct relatives, and there was also some disagreement between my father and the clan leader’s temperament, so..."
After saying this, Xun Yuan's face darkened and she stopped talking.
When Li Zhi heard this, he felt a little thoughtful and thought to himself: "No wonder Xun Shuang was so kind when I first met him.
However, when I mentioned that I was here to visit Xun Jian, I immediately served tea to see him off.
It turns out that there was some bad blood between the two old men, but I was caught between them and suffered an unreasonable disaster."
Thinking of this, Li Zhi felt quite unhappy. This is your Xun family's family matter. Why should you include me, an outsider, in it? It's so unreasonable!
However, when he saw Xun Yuan standing next to him, the unhappiness in his heart immediately disappeared. He could marry such a lovely wife, so what if he suffered some grievances!
Maybe he felt a little uncomfortable because of his innocent look.
After Xun Yuan looked at herself carefully, she asked: "Brother, why do you think so of Nujia? But what is wrong with Nujia?"
Li Zhi was quite embarrassed when he heard this. He knew that his eyes were too naked and he had embarrassed others.
Immediately, he said without hesitation: "It's okay, there's nothing wrong with Shimei, she's very beautiful... uh... I mean it's very good, um! Very good!"
Xun Yuan heard the sick words in his words. In an instant, her face turned red and she whispered softly: "Brother, how can you be so cool? How can... how can you..."
At this point, she couldn't speak anymore.
Li Zhi relaxed a little at this time. Looking at her cute appearance, he teased: "What can I do as a brother?
How can you praise the beauty of Shimei?
Or...Shimei thinks that when she praises Shimei for her brother, her words are not gorgeous enough?"
"oops!"
Xun Yuan shyly covered her face with her sleeves.
"Brother Shi is bullying the slave family...!"
Li Zhi saw Xun Yuan's shy look and moved his index finger.
Then he laughed and said: "Why did brother bully my younger sister?
In my brother's heart, my sister is like a fairy from the Nine Heavens descending to earth, how can I not praise him? It's just..."
After saying this, he deliberately paused and then continued: "It's just that Shimei has a shortcoming."
Hearing this, Xun Yuan didn't care about being shy and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong with the slave family?"
After all, a woman likes her appearance, and since Li Zhi arrived today, she has been very satisfied with him.
Now, according to Li Zhi, she may have flaws in her appearance. She doesn't want to embarrass herself in front of her sweetheart, so she is very anxious.
Seeing how anxious she was, Li Zhi smiled jokingly.
"The biggest problem with Shimei is...
Shimei is too delicate and beautiful, and the clothes she wears are too simple and elegant, but they are not worthy of Shimei's peerless appearance."
After he finished speaking, he looked at the charming and angry look on Xun Yuan's face with a smile.
Xun Yuan was greatly ashamed when she heard this, and said angrily: "Brother Shi has come to bully the slave family again, and the slave family refuses to obey...!"
"Ha ha ha ha……"
After looking at the little wife in front of him, Li Zhi couldn't help it anymore and laughed happily.
Seeing him laughing, Xun Yuan stamped her foot angrily, then turned away from Li Zhi.
Seeing this, Li Zhi slowly stopped laughing, looked at Xun Yuan carefully, and then looked around as if he was looking for something.
Xun Yuan's back is turned
Looking at Li Zhi, I heard that he was no longer smiling and there was no other sound. I was very curious and looked back at him.
When she saw Li Zhi looking for something, she asked curiously: "What is Brother Shi looking for?"
Li Zhi shook his head when he heard this and said nothing. When he looked behind Xun Yuan, his eyes lit up and he walked forward quickly.
Xun Yuan turned around and looked in the direction he was going, only to see a delicate pink flower standing gracefully there.
Li Zhi walked up to the flower and stretched out his sinful right hand to the flower.
"No!"
Xun Yuan saw him picking flowers and shouted behind him.
"Hmm? What's wrong, Sister Shi?"
Li Zhi stood up, holding the flower in his hand, and looked at Xun Yuan with doubts on his face.
"Forehead……"
Xun Yuan looked at the flower in his hand, opened her mouth, squirmed a few times, and finally shook her head in frustration.
"Nothing, brother, what's the use of picking flowers?"
Li Zhi didn't speak, he just held the flower and looked at her with a smile until her face turned red. Then Li Zhi walked up to her and put the flower in his hand in her hair.
Immediately, Li Zhi stepped back a few steps, watched it, and nodded with satisfaction.
"Flowers are more beautiful than beautiful people. Only in this way can they complement each other."
Hearing Li Zhi's praise, Xun Yuan was speechless, but her face was filled with beauty.
After Li Zhi and Li Zhi admired the garden for a while, a servant came in and said to them: "Miss, Master, a banquet has been prepared in the hall. The master has asked me to come and invite you two to the table."
When Li Zhi heard this, he looked at Xun Yuan who was standing aside: "Brother, I came from Luoyang this morning. I am very hungry and thirsty right now. How about we go to the banquet together?"
When Xun Yuan heard this, she replied slowly and softly: "It's all up to my brother."
After the two came to the main hall, they saw Mr. Xun Jian already at the table. Just as Li Zhi was about to apologize, he heard Mr. Xun Jian's slow and loud voice.
"My nephew, there is no need to be polite. Come to the table quickly. I and my nephew will not come home until they are drunk today! Yuan'er, come over and pour wine with me."
Li Zhi heard this and gave a bitter smile. Knowing that he met an old drinker again today, he was afraid that it would be difficult for him to walk out of this hall soberly.
"So, I forgive you for being rude, junior."
