At this time, Su Yuanyuan in the yard saw that her two cousins ​​had not started writing, so she said, "Sisters, write! Handwriting is practiced from ugly to beautiful. If you don't write, your handwriting will never be beautiful."

Su Guoguo said unconfidently: "I'm afraid of wasting paper."

"It's okay. How can it be considered a waste to practice calligraphy? Besides, the paper we use is what our brothers have used. Just write boldly. It's okay." They practiced calligraphy on the paper that the boys in the family had used on one side. They turned it over and used the other side. Even so, Su Guoguo and Su Miaomiao still felt distressed.

Su Miaomiao was more lively than Su Guoguo. She said to Su Yuanyuan, "Little sister, if what you write is ugly, please don't laugh at us anymore."

Just now, Su Yuanyuan looked at the words they wrote and couldn't help laughing. Su Yuanyuan immediately said seriously: "Promise not to make fun of you, write quickly!"

This was the scene that Li Chunsheng and the other two saw when they entered the yard.

Li Hongmei was grateful to her niece for her dedication in teaching her two daughters to read and write. The girls got along very well during this period and their relationship became better and better. The two daughters often said: "Sister Yuanyuan is so and so..."

Li Hongmei knew that although her little niece was the youngest, she had really taught her two daughters a lot, and even her temperament had become more likable than before.

After they entered the courtyard and greeted the Su family, Li Chunsheng stepped forward and explained his purpose to Old Lady Su: "Aunt, I have something to tell you. Can we talk alone?"

Old Madam Su looked at Li Chunsheng, who was serious, and knew that he didn't want others to hear him, so she nodded and said, "Okay, let's go to my room!"

Old Mrs. Su murmured in her heart, what's going on with this child?

Old Lady Su walked in front, and Li Chunsheng and others followed behind. After entering the house, Old Lady Su saw Old Lady Li and Li Hongmei also followed in. From Li Chunsheng's appearance, it seemed that he was the one who asked them to go in together, so Old Lady Su did not stop them.

After entering the house, Mrs. Su said politely, "Mother-in-law, please sit down."

Old Mrs. Li knew that it would be inappropriate for her to stand aside, so she sat down.

Looking at Li Chunsheng standing nearby, Old Lady Su pointed to a stool nearby and said, "Chunsheng! You sit down too. If you have anything to say, let's sit down and talk."

"Aunt, I won't sit down. I'd rather stand and talk!" Li Chunsheng was nervous and uneasy at the moment, but since he had made the decision, he had to take this step firmly.

Li Hongmei, who was standing by, didn't wait for Old Lady Su to speak before she said, "Mom, I won't sit down either. Let me stand!"

Seeing the two men's nervous expressions, Mrs. Su did not force them and sat there waiting for Li Chunsheng to speak.

Li Chunsheng said unconfidently, "Aunt, what I'm going to say next will make you angry. If you're angry, you can hit me or scold me, but don't get yourself hurt by being angry."

"It's okay, go ahead and tell me." Mrs. Su thought to herself: What's the matter? It makes me so angry. I have seen all kinds of storms.

Li Chunsheng mustered up the courage to speak: "I like Su Yitong and have liked her for a long time. I want to marry her."

After saying this, Li Chunsheng was expecting to face the anger of Old Lady Su, but when he looked up, he saw Old Lady Su sitting there, looking at him calmly.

Old Madam Su is no longer the old madam Su of the past. If she were the old madam Su of the past, she would probably be furious by now.

Old Lady Su looked at Li Chunsheng, waiting for the next words. Li Chunsheng could not tell from Old Lady Su's expression whether she was happy or angry.

Under the gaze of Mrs. Su, Li Chunsheng continued, "I know I am not worthy, and I don't dare to dream that you can marry your daughter to me. I just want you to know my thoughts, and I hope you can also look at me when you look for a husband for him."

"I know my hope is slim, but if I don't tell you, you will never consider me. And please rest assured that I will not force you, and I will not do anything to harm the Su family. If you choose a good man for Yitong in the future, I will also sincerely bless you, and will never ruin his marriage, let alone do anything to hurt Yitong."

After he finished speaking, the air became silent. Old Mrs. Su still didn't say anything, just looked at Li Chunsheng.

Li Hongmei, who was standing by, just opened her mouth to call out, "Mom." But she was so scared by the look from Old Lady Su that she swallowed the rest of her words.

Old Mrs. Li wanted to say something on behalf of her son, but she didn't know what to say. She was also afraid that she might say something wrong and delay her son, so she hesitated and didn't say anything.

Old Madam Su just looked at Li Chunsheng and said, "You continue."

Old Lady Su's reaction was not as good as getting angry directly! Li Chunsheng expected her to get angry, and he had already prepared for her anger. But this was an unexpected reaction from Old Lady Su, and he swallowed nervously.

Li Chunsheng tried to calm himself down, thought for a moment and said, "This matter has nothing to do with my elder sister. She just found out about it today. If you are angry, please vent it on me. Please don't vent it on her."

Old Madam Su said expressionlessly, "Are you done?"

"That's it."

Old Madam Su straightened herself up and said, "Now that you've finished speaking, I'm going to speak now."

"You say."

Old Madam Su said bluntly: "I will not go against the Su family, and I will not hurt Yitong. Do you think our Su family will be afraid of you? Even if you go against the Su family, our Su family will not be afraid of you."

Mrs. Su knew the impulsiveness of young people, and knew how irrational they would be. She couldn't let Li Chunsheng think that the Su family was afraid of him.

As soon as Li Chunsheng heard this, he knew that what he said was wrong. What he just said seemed to be a promise. But it could also be said that there was a threat in his words. He quickly explained: "I have never thought of going against the Su family. I said that just to reassure you and let you know that I have no intention of forcing you. Even if I don't have the blessing to marry Yitong, the relationship between the Su family and the Li family will not change. The Su family has done a favor to the Li family, and Li Chunsheng always remembers it in his heart. How could he be an ungrateful person?"

Old Mrs. Su interrupted him: "My family and your family can't be considered to have any favors."

Li Chunsheng insisted, "But in my heart, the Su family has done a favor to the Li family. Without the Su family's support, the Li family would not be where it is today. I know what you are worried about. I just said the wrong thing."

Li Chunsheng suddenly knelt on the ground, raised his hand, raised two fingers and said: "I, Li Chunsheng, swear here today: If I, Li Chunsheng, do anything to let down the Su family and Su Yitong in the future, I will have no descendants and will not die a good death."

The ancients valued oaths the most. They believed in retribution and would not swear easily. Old Lady Su and the others were shocked by Li Chunsheng's actions.

Mrs. Li's eyes were red when she saw her son making the vow, but she knew her son's thoughts and didn't say anything.

Mrs. Su also felt a little guilty. She didn't expect Li Chunsheng to swear directly. It seemed that she was overthinking it, but for such things, Mrs. Su dared not think too much. It is better to take precautions against some things.
