The scenery of Taihu Lake, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and it is natural.

The afternoon sun shines on the water surface of Taihu Lake, sparkling. The peaks and mountains loom in the distance, and the smoke is vast.

It was autumn, and it was drizzling at noon. The sun is not hot, but it shines warmly.

On the lake, on a small boat that could only carry two people, a group of young men and women were talking and laughing.

These two people are naturally Li Xiuwen and Dong Xiaowan.

Boating is also an interesting activity, but at this time it is past the time for the water chestnut to mature. Li Xiuwen could only give up Cailing, leisurely boating on Taihu Lake, and chatting with the beautiful woman.

"Steal half a day!"

Li Xiuwen shook the folding fan in his hand lightly and said with emotion.

Dong Xiaowan poured him tea and said with a smile: "It's autumn now, does Childe still feel hot?" ”

"Ugh"

Li Xiuwen touched his nose and smiled awkwardly: "I'm here to have a demeanor, not a temperature." ”

"Grace rather than temperature? That's an interesting statement. ”

Dong Xiaowan saw his embarrassed look, and felt even more interesting in his heart. This man looks elegant, but he is very funny, and sometimes he is very honest and cute.

Unconsciously, she already had a good impression of Li Xiuwen. It's just that she is self-aware, she is just a dusty woman, and she definitely doesn't dare to think about anything.

On weekdays, Dong Xiaowan reads countless people. Just from the way the men looked at her, she could guess a little bit of each other's thoughts. But Li Xiuwen in front of her, she has always been difficult to see. However, she could see that Li Xiuwen was still calm in front of her, talking and laughing freely, and seemed to be very casual, and she didn't take herself too seriously.

Which of those ordinary men didn't try to please her in front of her, thinking that she would have a chance to take advantage?

Dong Xiaowan has a high temperament, but Li Xiuwen's casual attitude can't help but make her doubt her appearance. But she naturally wouldn't show such thoughts. Then he continued to ask: "I think those adults in Suzhou City are very idle, Gongzi is an official in the capital, is he very busy with official business?" ”

After Li Xiuwen heard this, he thought about it seriously, it seems that he is an idle worker, why does he feel extremely busy recently?

After some thought, he understood. The reason why I seem to be very busy is because I am either looking for something by myself, or something has found me.

After figuring out this problem, Li Xiuwen said with a smile: "Actually, I am an idle job, but there are always some annoying flies that are not very restless and run in front of me all day long to make noise." ”

Dong Xiaowanqi said: "Oh? Why don't they look for others, but they like to find trouble with their sons? ”

Li Xiuwen boasted shamelessly: "That's no way, this son is handsome and extraordinary, they are jealous." ”

"Giggles"

Dong Xiaowan made him laugh coquettishly, covered his mouth with his hand and said, "It won't be for no reason, people will find you, right?" ”

Li Xiuwen said with a smile: "You are not wrong, I blame me for being too lucky, marrying a beautiful lady, and provoking the sons of those big officials in the capital for no reason." ”

When Dong Xiaowan heard that he already had a wife, his face darkened unconsciously, and then he was relieved.

Yes, no wonder he doesn't look down on himself. A handsome, elegant, and generous son like him is an official in the capital, can he marry a bad wife?

Dong Xiaowan also knows that a woman like herself who sells her arts, no matter how beautiful she is, is at most just a concubine for others, how can she have some other thoughts.

It's just that the status of the concubine is very low, and it is not good that one day I will let my master change hands and give it to others. She is a beautiful girl, how can she be willing to accept such a fate?

Li Xiuwen noticed her emotional changes, and only said that he was quick to talk for a while, praising his wife and hurting her self-esteem. After all, women are a little vain, who is willing to admit that others are more beautiful than themselves?

He said with relief: "Actually, Miss Xiaowan is not bad-looking, even if she is not on par with my lady." ”

Dong Xiaowan couldn't help laughing when she heard his comforting words, and said, "Son, you don't need to comfort the slave family, how dare the slave family compare with your wife?" ”

"I really didn't lie to you."

Li Xiuwen saw that she didn't believe it, and said very seriously. What he said is indeed the truth, with a high-quality woman like Dong Xiaowan, few men will not be moved when they see it.

It's just that he has seen a lot of beautiful women, so he naturally has some immunity, and he won't be like other men, who can't walk when he sees a beautiful girl. What's more, Dong Xiaowan is the same age as his sister, and she is still a little girl in his eyes, how can there be too much?

Li Xiuwen's text was originally played on the spot and shown to those officials in Suzhou. In order to complete the errand, he will not be distracted to think too much about the personal affairs of these children.

Dong Xiaowan saw that his expression didn't seem to be fake, so he said tentatively: "Since the son said so, the slave family has something to ask you, if you don't have a wife now, will you look down on the slave family?" ”

It's not a good question to answer, you can't say "you're too young", right? Li Xiuwen pondered for a long time, and he didn't think of how to answer this question.

Dong Xiaowan saw that he was silent, and sighed in a quiet tone: "Since the son is embarrassed, the slave family will not embarrass you." I'm a dusty woman, how dare I have such an extravagant hope? ”

Seeing the other party's look of loss, thinking that she was originally a young lady from a big family, but now she has fallen into the dust, and it seems that the end will not be good in the future, Li Xiuwen couldn't help but feel compassion. He said, "If you want to redeem yourself, I can help you." ”

Dong Xiaowan was stunned when she heard this, but she didn't answer out loud, just blinked and looked at Li Xiuwen. When he said that he wanted to redeem himself, did he want to take himself as a concubine?

Li Xiuwen was a little uncomfortable with her, so he had to explain out loud: "Eh, don't get me wrong, I don't mean anything else."

Dong Xiaowan interrupted him and said: "A little girl in the slave family, there is also a sick mother in bed at home, if she redeems herself, what can she do later?" ”

"This"

Li Xiuwen only thought about ransom her out of a sudden thought, but he didn't think about taking her as a concubine. At this time, I really don't know how to answer when I hear her say this.

"I still want to thank Gongzi for his kindness."

Seeing this, Dong Xiaowan could only sigh softly again. She was reluctant to be a concubine, but when she knew that Li Xiuwen didn't have this idea, she was still a little stunned.

Li Xiuwen just frowned deeply and did not answer again.

After a while, he suddenly looked happy and said with a smile: "If the girl doesn't dislike it, then she will go to Beijing with me, right?" "To be continued.
