Before fleeing famine, marry a playboy!

Chapter 7: How about letting her be your mistress?

"What have you discovered today?" Xie Shi, who had returned to Jiangning Inn, lay on the couch and chatted with the servants.

"My dear, Qingyi feels that the rumors are misleading."

"how do I say this?"

"The lady from the Li family I saw today was very dignified. She was measured in her words and actions. She was not afraid of people stronger than her. She was not like a young lady who had lived in seclusion for a long time. She had more chivalrous spirit than people in the world. I don't know where she got the courage from. If she really angered that person, wouldn't she be afraid of getting into trouble?"

"Well, he is indeed a brave one."

"Besides, it is rumored that she has been ill for a long time, but it doesn't seem like that at all from what I saw today. Her breath is steady and powerful, and she is much healthier than other women.

That's why the doctor wanted to feel her pulse. Is there some hidden secret?"

"Not necessarily. Some things lose their original form as they are passed on." Isn't Xie Shi himself the best example?

"And, also, when Madam Li saw our husband, she didn't show any emotion at all. You should know that our husband is a lady in the boudoir in Jinling..." Feiyi swallowed the words "dream lover" back into her stomach. The look in her husband's eyes was too scary.

"Fei Yi, don't compare Madam Li with others." Xie Shi tapped his folding fan on his palm again and again. "Whether she is pretending to be calm or really calm, this kind of mentality is also very rare. What do you think about letting her be your mistress?"

If he could make Li Yuening fall in love with him, maybe the old man would recommend him to the master's family in the future because he is her husband. The grandchildren of the Xie family are not much different in age, so he will never get any benefits in terms of seniority.

Qingyi and Feiyi looked at each other and said, "It's all up to you, my dear."

"But she doesn't seem to like me." Xie Shi seemed to be talking to himself, and for the first time he doubted his own charm.

Fei Yi was straightforward, "Madam Li is engaged to the Xie family. If she were to fall in love with someone casually, wouldn't that be unfaithful to her husband?"

Xie Shi, "Is that so?"

Qingyi and Feiyi nodded quickly.

"Then reveal my identity to her?" Xie Shi shook his head. "That's not right. If she still doesn't like me, then I will lose face. How will I get along with her in the Xie family in the future?"

In Xie Shi's mind, if the lady from the Li family didn't marry him, she would definitely marry his brother. Living under the same roof, after this incident, it was inevitable that the two of them would feel awkward in the future.

"My dear, you are so handsome and beautiful, like a fallen immortal. If she doesn't even like you, then the Xie family will not like you either."

Xie Shi laughed out loud and praised Fei Yi, saying, "You are a good talker. I'll give you a task. Get some useful information from that little maid."

"Yes, my dear." Feiyi answered loudly and raised her eyebrows proudly towards Qingyi.

Qingyi lowered her eyes.

"Qingyi, go to the pawnshop and get the house deed back." The house deed Xie Shi was talking about was Li Yuening's. He would return it to her when he had the chance in the future, which would also be a keepsake for Li Yuening.

After sending the servant away, Xie Shi thought about how to attract Li Yuening's attention?

A hero saving a beauty?

Or give gifts that please him/her?

Or did he express his desire to marry her directly?

For the first time, Xie Shi felt that getting along with the young lady was a challenge. It would have been better if Zi Yi was there.

On the tenth day, when Li Yuening arrived in Jinling, Xie Shi made sure that she had a deep impression of him, otherwise he would have no advantage when he arrived at the Xie family. In terms of status, he could not compare with other brothers who were born of legitimate parents.

In terms of talent and appearance, he is not as gentlemanly as the elder brother Xie Zhan, and he is not as good at disguise.

At present, it seems that his biggest obstacle is still Xie Zhan. If the lady of the Li family really wants to find someone to rely on, Xie Zhan is undoubtedly the best candidate. Maybe even the old man will favor him.

The folding fan in Xie Shi's hand made a crackling sound. It was so unfair.

Finally, Xie Shi made up his mind to fight for it. If he really married Li Yuening, he would not treat her unfairly.

Two days passed in a flash

Xie Shi and Feiyi were waiting at the gate of Li's house early in the morning in a luxurious carriage. Not far away, Qingyi was also waiting with a few horses.

Xie Shi was dressed in red brocade clothes again today, with his black hair tied up, looking full of youthful vigor. If you didn't know him, you would think he was the groom.

Yun Zhuo was carrying a bag on his back, holding a sword in one hand and leading his horse in the other, looking like a chivalrous man. The one who lagged behind him was Feng Qian, who was carrying a huge medicine box on his horse's back.

After greeting each other, they exchanged a few words and looked at the closed door.

Li Yuening was wearing her newly bought dress. After sending the maid away, she put away the bed she had slept on, the antique shelf, the bookshelf with books, the screen and other large and small objects into the space. Then she walked towards the door wearing a veil.

Later, Xiaosui stared at the small bundle in a daze. After living in the place for three years, there were only these two small bundles left. She couldn't help but cry.

Seeing his wife walking away, he wiped his tears and ran after her to support her.

The door opened, and Li Yuening saw Xie Shi in the crowd. He was dazzlingly red, and he seemed to like red clothes very much.

Li Yuening also saw an uninvited person, "Mr. Feng, who is this?"

"I am from Jinling, and I was thinking of having a companion for the journey. I'm sorry to bother you, Madam Li." Feng Qian crossed his arms and bowed.

Li Yuening naturally had no objection, "It's fate that we met. Thank you, Doctor Feng, for taking care of me along the way."

What's wrong with having a free doctor?

Xie Shi came over and said, "The journey is long, and the carriage is more spacious and comfortable. Madam Li, please don't blame me for acting on my own."

Li Yuening really hadn't thought of this. She hadn't even considered that she would need to take a carriage to travel.

"Thank you, my Lord, for your consideration. Yue Ning is grateful to me, so how can she blame me?"

"It's getting late, let's set off."

Li Yuening nodded and looked back at the Li Family Escort Agency. The plaque had been taken down.

When getting on the carriage, Li Yuening stepped on Mi Li's gauze curtain, and Mi Li almost fell off her head. Xie Shi quickly held her up and just saw Li Yuening's fleeting panic. Her almond eyes were like a frightened deer, and she recovered after a moment. Her fair face was flushed with pink, and her slightly pursed pink lips revealed annoyance. She looked very smart.

"Madam, be careful where you step." Xie Shi lowered his head, clenched his fists, and stretched out his arm for Li Yuening to support him.

"Yeah." Li Yuening held his arm and got into the carriage. The carriage was very spacious, with a chessboard, tea sets, pastries and snacks, several different kinds of books on the bookshelf, and a blanket for naps. It was wrapped in soft cloth all around to reduce shock and prevent collision. It was really well equipped.

Xiaosui'er was shocked when she saw this. Could a carriage be like this?

For a moment, he even forgot to ask his wife if she was frightened just now.

Of course Li Yuening did it on purpose. She knew that Xie Jian was Xie Shi and one of her potential marriage partners, so she had to give it a try.

In the past two days, Li Yuening re-analyzed the Xie family and found that Xie Shi was a good candidate for a husband. First of all, they had a common enemy, Xie Zhan and his mother. Xie Shi was born out of wedlock and was suppressed by the Feng family. He did not die young because of being praised to death, which showed that Xie Shi had some means of self-protection. It would be much easier to cooperate with a smart person.

Secondly, Xie Shi’s biological mother died early, so he has no mother-in-law to care for him. No matter where he is, a mother-in-law is no less than a zombie, so it is best not to have one. As for Feng, she is not a real mother-in-law and cannot control her. If it doesn’t work out, she can live outside with Xie Shi. I believe he will be happy with it.

As for the second wife, if she has been dependent on the first wife for too long, she will become weak and indecisive. Even if there are one or two sober ones, there are too many people to lead them.

In the original body's memory, Xie Shi was a playboy who was fond of women and a frequent visitor to Jinling brothels.

Li Yuening didn't care whether he was a playboy or not. She wanted to solve the problem of being an official matchmaker in the future and find a partner for the space production. She didn't really want to have a relationship with the other party.

Moreover, in Li Yuening's view, what maintains stability is never feelings, but needs. Feelings are the most changeable things, and only the needs with common interests can last long-term.

If Xie Shi's character is good enough, Li Yuening is sure that he will be willing to cooperate with her.
