Chapter 034: Raising Relatives Causes Trouble

Cao Xiuling said: "Father has agreed. ā€

Li Siyu nodded, Ouyang Chengming is the son of Shangshu, and he is also a young talent. Cao Xiuling's marriage in the past is definitely a good and harmless thing for Cao Hou. Cao Hou had no reason to disagree.

It is said that Ouyang Chengming was impressed by Li Siyu's talent in Tianxiang Pavilion that day, and he had a sense of admiration in his heart. He mistakenly thought that Li Siyu was Cao Xiuling, the second lady of the Hou Mansion, and he once proposed to his father to marry Cao Xiuling. His father felt that although Cao Xiuling was born in the Hou Mansion, she was only a concubine after all and was not worthy of his son. So I don't agree to this marriage. So the matter was delayed.

Hearing that Jiang Ke proposed to Cao Xiuling, he was anxious. He knelt and begged his father for the night, but Ouyang Shangshu just didn't agree with him marrying Cao Xiuling. It wasn't until he heard that the literati in the entire Luoyang City were putting pressure on the Hou Mansion for Cao Xiuling's unity, and he suddenly understood that although Cao Xiuling's status was not high, he had a great influence, and she was the first talented woman in Luoyang, so she was worthy of his son. So he agreed to the marriage.

After Ouyang Chengming got his father's permission, he immediately sent someone to propose to the Hou Mansion, for fear that the Hou Ye would marry her to someone else if he was too late. Fortunately, he didn't go late, and Hou Ye agreed to his proposal. He can finally marry Cao Xiuling.

Li Siyu said: "Are you satisfied with this marriage?" ā€

Cao Xiuling said: "Ouyang Gongzi is erudite and talented, has a good character, and marries me as his wife, I am naturally satisfied." ā€

Li Siyu said: "Then why are you still frowning?" ā€

Cao Xiuling said: "I just think it's strange, why did this Ouyang Gongzi propose to me?" ā€

Li Siyu said: "You are famous, Ouyang Gongzi is here for your fame." Of course, it's also possible that he has seen you somewhere and fell in love with you at first sight. ā€

Cao Xiuling said: "Don't make fun of me." According to my speculation, Ouyang Gongzi is going to marry the first talented woman in Luoyang, not me. ā€

Li Siyu was stunned for a moment, her high IQ made her understand what Cao Xiuling meant, "You mean, the person he wants to marry is me?" "Is this possible? She only had a one-sided relationship with him.

Cao Xiuling nodded, "I think so." The person he saw that day was you, and it was naturally you who wanted to marry, but I took your place, so he came to propose marriage to me. I was worried that he would find out that I was not the woman he had seen that day. Then he divorced me. ā€

Li Siyu frowned, if this is the case, it is really difficult to do. She thought for a moment and said, "I was veiled that day, and he didn't see my true face, so even if he saw you, he probably wouldn't find anything." As long as you continue to enrich yourself and become a genuine talent, you won't be a goof in this matter. ā€

Of course, if it's a goof, it's a big problem. However, Ouyang Chengming came to ask for this family business by himself, and others did not force him, even if he found out that he had married the wrong person, he couldn't complain about others.

Cao Xiuling lowered her head, "What if it goes to the goof?" "He is the pride of the sky, and she is just a concubine of the Hou Mansion. She already felt that she was not worthy of him, and if she was a goof, he would definitely divorce her!

Li Siyu said: "Raise your head and chest, show some confidence, you know, you are also a beauty, since ancient times, heroes have been sad to pass the beauty pass, I don't believe that Ouyang Chengming will not be tempted by you." As long as you can make him interested in you, even if he finds out the truth later, it doesn't matter. ā€

Cao Xiuling's eyes showed a look of hope, but then his eyes were gloomy, "Will he like me?" ā€

Li Siyu said with certainty: "It will definitely be." You're a likable woman. ā€

In Li Siyu's opinion, Cao Xiuling is gentle and skillful, and she looks like a good wife and mother. For a talented person like Ouyang Chengming, the ideal partner should be Cao Xiuling.

Cao Xiuling asked carefully, "Don't you care?" He was going to marry you. ā€

Li Siyu said: "What are you thinking in your head? I'm only fourteen years old, and I'm not old enough to talk about marriage. Besides, I'm not interested in him. ā€

Cao Xiuling said: "It's good if you don't blame me." ā€

Li Siyu said: "You are my good friend, and you have a life-saving grace for me, I naturally hope that you can be happy." However, I can't be sure how Ouyang Chengming will react after learning the truth of the matter, this result is something I can't predict, so I hope that you will be confident and mentally prepared to bear the worst outcome. If you can't accept the worst, then I suggest that you don't expect anything from this marriage. ā€

The marriage between Cao Xiuling and Ouyang Chengming is the order of the matchmaker's parents, and the two families are both official eunuchs, with talented men and women, and they are a match made in heaven in the eyes of outsiders. Of course, Li Siyu also thinks they are very suitable. However, even if she felt that they were not suitable, she had no good way to stop them this time. If Cao Xiuling is unwilling to marry in the end, she will only build yƬ for her to escape marriage. After all, Ouyang Chengming's reputation outside is very good, and she can't make a fuss about it.

She can give her advice, but in the end, it is up to Cao Xiuling to make her own decisions.

Cao Xiuling thought for a moment, "Ouyang Gongzi is a good person, even if he finds out that I am not worthy of my name and I am replacing someone else's name, I guess I won't treat me too badly." After all, he came to propose marriage voluntarily, and I didn't force him. Maybe he won't take a break. ā€

The worst result was that she was divorced by Ouyang Chengming. But she felt that even if she became an abandoned woman, it was better than being casually found by Mrs. Hou to marry her. Besides, if Ouyang Chengming likes her, then she will live happily in this life. For the sake of her own happiness, she decided to take a gamble.

Li Siyu said: "Have you decided?" ā€

Cao Xiuling nodded, "I decided to give it a go." If he can like me, it will be a good thing; If you don't like me, I don't think the result will be worse than my refusal. You know, I can't be the master of my marriage. My father has agreed to the marriage, and he will definitely not withdraw from the marriage this time. If I refuse to marry, maybe I will suffer a lot, and I must marry Ouyang Gongzi. ā€

Li Siyu once again felt sad for the fate of ancient women, but Cao Xiuling was lucky, and met Ouyang Chengming after driving Jiang Ke away. It's just that I don't know if they will be able to achieve positive results in the end. Thinking that Ouyang Chengming might have proposed to Cao Xiuling for his own reasons, she felt a headache.

What is this? She just wants to go back to the modern age, to the place where she grew up. I don't want to stay in antiquity. I don't want to have any emotional entanglements with anyone in ancient times.

In other words, how can we go back to modern times?

Or can't you go back?

Li Siyu said: "Second Miss, what we just thought was just our speculation. Maybe Ouyang Gongzi really wants to marry you, and it has nothing to do with whether you are the first talented woman in Luoyang. ā€

Yes, it is also possible that he saw Cao Xiuling somewhere and fell in love with her at first sight. If so, it's always better.
