Chapter 252: Tempting the Truth
Lu Wanwan thought for a while, and then replied: "Now it seems that it should be good, whether it is the appearance and temperament of the poem, it is worthy of poetry, that is, the character, and it can stand up to scrutiny, it can be seen from the fact that he gave up his life to have a child, but I don't know if he is really knowledgeable, if it has always been like this, Shishi may have to suffer with him." ”
Qin Qin nodded approvingly when he heard this, and said: "Yes, then Liu Shi'an is quite poor at first glance, and he is just a showman, Shishi will definitely suffer if he follows him." ”
The two were discussing what about Liu Shi'an, and Shishi walked out, looked at the two of them with strange eyes, and asked, "What are you saying behind my back?" ”
Lu Wanwan grinned, walked up to Shishi's side and said, "Sister Shishi, we're talking about Liu Shi'an, Qin Jiaoxi and I both think others are good." ”
"What's good, it's not a sour showman, you know I hate showmanship the most." Shishi pursed her lips and said with a bit of desire.
Lu Wanwan smiled slightly, pretending to be puzzled and said: "In this way, why do you still help him so much, Sister Shishi, I just saw the way you were holding him, but I really cared about it." ”
Shishi was ridiculed by Lu Wanwan like this, and suddenly embarrassed to do it, stretched out her pink fist and beat Lu Wanwan for a while, and scolded angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, how can I care about him, I'm just afraid that he will go too slowly and delay the children's class." ”
"Oh......" Lu Wanwan let out a long "oh", but he still looked unconvinced.
Shishi was about to beat her again, Qin Qin hurriedly came up to "persuade" and said: "Okay, Wanwan, don't make trouble with Shishi anymore, you also know that she has always been thin-skinned." After speaking, he pulled Shishi to his side, and asked her in a low voice: "Shishi, tell me the truth, are you interested in Liu Shi'an?" ”
Shishi didn't know whether she was ashamed or angry, she only clenched her teeth and didn't speak.
"If you don't speak, I'll be your acquiescence." Qin Qin also chuckled and said.
"Sister Qin, why are you like this!" Shishi was very ashamed, stomped her foot and said.
Lu Wanwan stepped forward again, adding fuel to the fire and said: "Sister Shishi, don't be shy, the man should get married and the woman should get married, if you really meet the person you like, I and Jiaoxi will be happy for you." ”
"I don't have it......" This time Shishi's denial voice was a little weak, obviously unconfident.
Qin Qin pulled Shishi into her room, and a few people sat down on the soft couch, Qin Qin asked very seriously: "Shishi, there is no one else here now, you can tell us the truth, if you can have a good home, I will rest assured." ”
Shishi lowered her head and was silent for a while, before she replied like a mosquito: "You all know, after I went through the matter of Zhang Zuoyong, I was most annoyed by those poor scholars, when I first saw him, I didn't have a good face for him, but he was also strange, as if he wouldn't be angry, no matter how I sneered at him, he was a smile, and gradually I felt bored, so I stopped targeting him, but at that time I treated him like everyone else, and didn't mean anything else, and then when the school was crushed by heavy snow, He gave up his life to save the children who were still in the school, I thought he was a good person, and the men I met before were different, and then I went to visit him who was injured, and offered to help him replace the class for a period of time, he discussed with me the content of the class, and by the way also discussed some poetry and songs, I found that he was actually a good learner, but the family was too poor, if he could continue to take the exam, he would definitely make a difference, and then I often brought some nourishing soup to see him, and by the way discussed the content of the class, this back and forth, I noticed that the way he looked at me was a little different......"
"In that case, he fell in love with Sister Shishi first, he must have been moved by your beauty and kindness, if I were a man, I would definitely like you." Lu Wanwan accosted on the side.
Shishi couldn't help but be ashamed, and hit Lu Wan late again, and said angrily: "I won't say any more nonsense!" ”
Lu Wanwan immediately shut up, saying that she would not say anything more.
"And what do you mean to him?" Qin Qin saw that Lu Wanwan and Shishi were finished arguing, and then asked out loud.
Shishi's expression was a little confused, and after thinking for a while, he slowly shook his head and replied: "I don't know myself, I never thought that I would be tempted by a man, after all, a woman like us...... And a few men will really think right, maybe today is sweet words to coax you, turn your head and abandon you as if you were dead, such a thing, I haven't encountered it, I was too stupid at the beginning, to be deceived by such a man, now I am past the age of stupidity, I dare not expect any more love. ”
Qin Qin listened to Shishi's words, she was also silent for a long time, her face was gloomy, she gently stroked Shishi's hair, and persuaded softly: "I know what you are worried about, but you can't give up the right to have because you are afraid of losing, there are always many good men in this world, you are still young, you can't deny all men because of an injury, and if you don't try, how can you be happy?" ”
"Sister Qin, I understand what you said, but I just can't get over the hurdle in my heart......" Shishi frowned and said very depressedly.
Qin Qin also sighed lightly when he heard this, and said helplessly: "It's up to you to figure it out, in fact, Wanwan and I can see that you are different from that Liu Shi'an, you ask your heart, if you really have him in your heart, don't hesitate anymore, otherwise you will miss it, and you will regret it in the future." ”
The expression on Shishi's face became more and more entangled, and after a long time, he hesitated and said: "Even if I have that meaning to him, if he knows my identity, I'm afraid he won't treat me like he is now......"
Qin Qin was dumbfounded, and after a while, he asked slowly, "You didn't tell her...... What is your identity? ”
"Why do I say that for no reason, anyway, I think I'm going to leave here sooner or later, and I don't want to have too much interaction with the people here, and I don't want those villagers to look at me with colored eyes......" Shishi said abruptly.
At this time, even Qin Qin couldn't help but sigh, she knew how the world looked at the women of the workshop, except for a few men, few people would marry the women of the workshop, and there were many who married as concubines, but they were concubines with people, and they were pressed by the mother and mother, and life would not be too good.
"If that person dislikes Sister Shishi's background, naturally he can't be trusted, I think it's better for us to tell Sister Shishi's life experience, and try to see if he is sincere to Sister Shishi, if his heart for Shishi remains unchanged at all, Sister Shishi, you might as well give him a chance." Lu Wanwan listened to it for a long time before he couldn't help but ask.
Shishi hesitated a little, only thought about it and didn't speak, Qin Qin also echoed on the side: "I think the method Wanwan said is feasible, I will watch from the side when the time comes, I can be regarded as having seen a lot of men, whether he is sincere or false, I can see at a glance." ”
Shishi was a little shaken by what the two of them said, and after thinking for a while, she nodded and responded: "Okay, just try him according to Wanwan's meaning." ”
With Shishi's consent, Lu Wanwan thought about how to talk to Liu Shi'an for a while, and when class ended, she came to the classroom with Qin Qin.
Liu Shi'an was slightly surprised when he saw Lu Wanwan and the two outside the door, Xu didn't see Shishi, he still had a faint look of disappointment on his face, but he covered it up very well, and still asked Lu Wanwan and Lu Wanwan very politely: "Are the two of you waiting for me here?" ”
Lu Wanwan nodded and replied with a smile: "We want to talk to Mr. Liu in private, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
Liu Shi'an had doubts in his eyes, but he didn't think much about it and agreed, "Naturally, Brother Lu Xian can say anything." ”
"Then please take a step to speak." After Lu Wanwan finished speaking, he led Liu Shi'an to the ear room next door.
Sure that no outsiders could hear what they were saying, Lu Wanwan opened his mouth again and asked very bluntly, "Is Mr. Liu interested in my sister?" ”
Liu Shi'an obviously didn't expect Lu Wanhui to ask so bluntly, and his face was a little embarrassed, but he still mustered up the courage to nod and replied: "Brother Lu Xian can see it, but it's a pity that I know my identity and I am not worthy of the poetry girl." ”
"As long as two people really like it, there is nothing worthy of it, and besides, you don't know what my sister's family background is, how can you know that you are not worthy? Dignified man, why bother to be self-indulgent" Lu Wanwan looked at Liu Shi'an with a smile and said.
Liu Shi'an was a little ashamed of what Lu Wanwan said, and bowed down to make a gesture with her, "Brother Xian's words are deafening, it's Shi'an who is shallow, but I see that the poetry girl has poetry and books in her belly, and she knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so she doesn't look like an ordinary woman, so I have this concern." ”
"My sister's life experience is indeed not simple, she is not easy to explain to you, so let my younger brother sue you, if you like my sister physically and mentally, no matter what her identity is and what her family background is, you shouldn't mind, right?" Lu Wanwan looked at Liu Shi'an's eyes and asked very seriously.
"I just like Miss Shishi, and I naturally don't mind her family background." Liu Shi'an replied very firmly.
"Good! I hope you talk count. Lu Wanwan squinted her eyes and said with satisfaction.
Lu Wanwan organized the language and began to tell the life experience of the poem, "My sister was poor when she was young, her parents died early, and she was adopted by her uncle, but her uncle and aunt were unscrupulous, and for thirty taels of silver, she sold it to the workshop, fortunately, my sister was intelligent, studied hard in the workshop, and wanted to earn enough silver to redeem herself and leave the workshop, the emperor lived up to her heart, not long ago, my sister finally scraped together enough silver taels and left the workshop......" When Lu Wanwan spoke, his eyes kept looking at Liu Shi'an, but he showed a look of disgust, I won't say a word of nonsense with him anymore, but Liu Shi'an was very calm from beginning to end, but people couldn't see what he was thinking.
"Now that you know my sister's background, what do you want to say?" Lu Wanwan couldn't see what he thought, so he could only ask directly.
Liu Shi'an was silent for a while before he slowly spoke: "I still say the same thing, I like Shishi, I don't care about her background and family background, as long as she likes me, I am willing to marry her." ”
"You don't mind if she used to be in the classroom? Lu Wanwan asked again.
"What about being in the workshop, this is not what she wants, since I like her, I must like all of her, no one is perfect, just like I am as poor as I am, many women look down on me, but I know for myself, I will not be so poor forever, if the poetry girl does not dislike me like this, what position do I have to dislike her." Liu Shi'an said very calmly.
"You yourself said that you will not be so poor forever, you are a scholar, you will continue to take the imperial examination in the future, maybe one day you will be able to be named on the gold list and become an official in the court, when the time comes, you will have money and status, will you be good to poetry as always?" Lu Wanwan asked very sharply.
"No matter what oath I make now, it's all vain, I hope to confirm with my actions that I am sincere to Miss Shishi, if you really want me to swear, I can write it down in black and white, so that I will have a certificate in the future." Liu Shi'an didn't make an oath indiscriminately, but said so.
Lu Wanwan and Qin Qin glanced at each other, both of them saw a satisfied look in each other's eyes, Lu Wanwan pondered the language for a while, and then said: "Since you say so, then I will persuade my sister to give you a chance, I hope you can really use your actions to confirm that you are sincere to my sister." ”
"I will live up to the expectations of my virtuous brother." Liu Shi'an bent down again, made a deep bow, and his attitude was very sincere.
Lu Wanwan sent Liu Shi'an back first, and then went back to Shishi's room with Qin Qin. Shishi was fidgeting in the room at the moment, and when she saw the two of her coming back, she immediately stood up from the couch, opened her mouth and wanted to ask something, but she couldn't help it again, looking very entangled.
"Sister Shishi, wait for a hurry." Lu Wanwan walked up to Shishi and said with a smile.
Shishi pouted unnaturally, pretending not to care, and said: "I'm not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry......"
Lu Wanwan smiled when she heard this, and said slowly: "Since my sister is not in a hurry, then I am not in a hurry, I will take a rest first and eat a snack, I have just said so many words, my mouth is dry." ”
Shishi was a little anxious when she heard this, and she opened her eyes angrily at Lu Wanwan, but she couldn't talk about her, she was really aggrieved.
"Okay, don't tease her, hurry up." Qin Qin stepped forward and patted Lu Wan for a while, and scolded with a smile.
Lu Wanwan smiled at Shishi again and said, "We have just told Liu Shi'an about your life experience, not only does he not mind, but also said that he will use actions to prove his sincerity to you." (To be continued.) )
