In a world where there are more men than women, I am spoiled

"Why did Master Pei come here in person?"

Yang Qianxun, who was behind him, was stunned when he heard Su Yueyao's words.

Does Yuqi have so much free time? Wasn't he always busy with official duties before?

"Please take a seat, Miss Su." Pei Yuqi did not answer Su Yueyao's words but gestured for her to sit in the main seat.

"No need, this is Mr. Pei's carriage, I can sit beside him." Su Yueyao sat directly on the right side, and when she looked up, she found that her seat was right opposite him.

Su Yueyao subconsciously wanted to stand up and let Yang Qianxun sit over behind her, but Pei Yuqi had already spoken to Yang Qianxun who had come up.

"Qianxun, please sit down! My house in the east of the city is still some distance away from the county town."

"Okay, why did Yuqi come here in person?" Yang Qianxun asked curiously.

"I came to the county town today to do some work. I had just finished my work and it was time for the appointment with you, so I came here on my way." Pei Yuqi explained.

"So that's how it is." Yang Qianxun said without thinking much.

"Is Miss Su finished drawing?" Pei Yuqi asked Su Yueyao.

"It's ready. When we get there, Master Pei will watch!"

"Okay Miss Su."

There was a moment of silence in the car afterwards. Su Yueyao felt embarrassed and subconsciously lifted the curtain to look at the street outside.

Although the carriage was large and luxurious, she was asked to sit in a closed environment with a man she didn't know very well. She did feel a little socially anxious and didn't know what to say. It was also inappropriate for her to talk to Yang Qianxun alone.

However, when Su Yueyao looked outside, she clearly felt that two pairs of eyes were looking at her.

Why does she feel something is so wrong?

Gradually, Su Yueyao was attracted by the scene outside, the vendors hawking their wares along the way, the waiters setting up shops outside to solicit customers, and the bustling and prosperous streets.

"Qianqian, why is the street so lively today?" Su Yueyao asked subconsciously.

The last time I went out, the streets were noticeably quieter than this.

"Miss Su, today is the day of the temple fair in Yi County. There is one every thirty days in Yi County. Most people visit relatives and friends, and unmarried men and women will make appointments to go boating on the lake and enjoy the flowers." Pei Yuqi explained.

"Ayao, actually this kind of day is more of a temple fair for women to prepare for choosing a husband. I just arrived in Yi County not long ago, and I don't remember the days here very clearly. I will take Ayao out for a walk at the next temple fair." Yang Qianxun added.

"There is a river in this county, and the boat cruise held here is quite good. There are poetry gatherings by scholars, flower viewing banquets, cooking competitions, and blind date banquets held by the county government." Pei Yuqi said.

"..."

"Are these banquets hosted by local people in Yi County? Why do blind date banquets have to be held in the county government?" Su Yueyao asked curiously.

"The matchmaking banquet is where the girls in the county choose their concubines and servants on the spot. If the girls are satisfied, they can directly register with the chief clerk of the county government, saving them the trouble of going to the county government separately. Now that the court has issued a new decree, the number of girls and boys at this month's matchmaking banquet is a little more than usual."

"The other banquets were hosted by famous families in the county." Pei Yuqi explained patiently.

"..."

"None of the young men at the blind date banquet are outstanding. After Ayao and others are busy for the past two days, I will pay special attention to the right young man." Yang Qianxun said later.

"..."

"Qianqian, you just arrange it!" Su Yueyao said helplessly.

If you can't escape your fate, just accept it!

Pei Yuqi watched how the two got along and found that Su Yueyao almost listened to Qianxun's words and did not feel superior at all. The more she got along with her, the more comfortable she felt.

After that, the carriage drove out of the county town and there were dense forests everywhere. Su Yueyao had no interest in looking anymore and just closed the window.

"There are cakes and tea in Miss Su's carriage. Would you like some?"

"No, I'm not hungry yet. Thank you, Master Pei."

"You're welcome, Miss Su."

"Yuqi is planning to return to Fengdu tomorrow?" Yang Qianxun asked.

He always felt that Yuqi put a lot of thought into Ayao today. Could it be that Yuqi had feelings for Ayao?

"I will send you back to Yi County tomorrow and then leave directly. I have been out for several days this time, and there are some things in Fengdu that cannot be delayed any longer."

"Qianxun, do you plan to stay in Yi County and don't want to go back to Fengdu? I think Miss Su is talented and it will be easier for you to go back to Fengdu if you want to."

"Let's take a look! My wife still likes staying here very much. Besides, the troubles in Fengdu have not been resolved in Yi County."

"That's right. Although the county is small, life here is quite comfortable. I have told the tea merchant's boss that if you have any problems, please let him know and he will help you."

"Thank you, Yuqi."

"Don't be polite with me. Qianxun and I have known each other since childhood. I hope you can live a better life. Getting rid of the Yang family is actually a good thing for you." Pei Yuqi said.

What he envied more was that he had a wife who could accompany him till old age... and he had no control over himself...

"I understand. Yuqi, you must take care of yourself when you return to Kyoto. We can still get together when we are free." Yang Qianxun said with a smile.

"Ms. Su Qianxun has had a rather straightforward temper since childhood. You should be more tolerant of him. He is a typical person who appears cold on the outside but is warm on the inside. If you are nice to him, he will repay you with ten times the kindness. Please don't make him sad." Pei Yuqi said to Su Yueyao.

"Don't worry, Mr. Pei! I won't let Qianxun get hurt." Su Yueyao replied with a smile.

After that, Pei Yuqi and Yang Qianxun talked about some things in Fengdu. Su Yueyao felt a little sleepy while listening and fell asleep leaning on Yang Qianxun's shoulder.

"It seems that what we said was boring to Miss Su, and she even fell asleep." Pei Yuqi said with a smile.

"Ayao doesn't like to meddle in other people's affairs. She never asks about things that have nothing to do with her. I'm afraid she doesn't want to know about Fengdu's affairs at all!"

"This is good. Miss Su is very good. Qianxun, I think you will live a happy life if you marry her." Pei Yuqi said with a hint of envy.

"Yes! I am really happy right now. Yuqi, do you have feelings for Ayao..."

"You figured it out? But I think it's impossible for her and I to be together. My uncle won't allow me to marry a woman who has no maternal family to rely on, and he won't let me be a concubine, so Qianxun, you don't have to worry." Pei Yuqi admitted generously.

"Yuqi, you know that's not what I meant. I've always understood that I won't be the only man around Ayao, and she won't favor me alone. She will marry someone else in the future. If that person is you, I'll be happy. Ayao is the best woman in the world."

"She is worthy of you, and you are worthy of her, but as young masters of aristocratic families, none of us can decide our own marriage!" Yang Qianxun said with a sigh.

"Yes! That's why I have never been obsessed with anything over the years, except for her. Even if I don't marry her, I will be content if I can spend one day with her before leaving Yi County." Pei Yuqi said to Su Yueyao.

"Yuqi..."

"Okay, stop looking at me like that. You don't know me. I'm usually too busy to finish my work. This time when I go back, my uncle will ask me to find my future wife."
