Chapter 53 Will You Marry Me As Your Wife
When Song Jingxing opened the curtain and walked into the green water room, Su Chu was pouring water from a pot.

There were not many lamps lit in the room, Su Chu was sitting by the long table, wearing a moon-white jacket and skirt with a slender waist, and only a silver hairpin stuck between her temples.

When Song Jingxing entered the door, there was a little maid who was about the same age as Su Chu standing beside the door.When Song Jingxing entered the door, the little maid looked at him unobtrusively.

Song Jingxing pretended he didn't see it, he just stood at the door and asked Su Chu, "What's the matter, Miss Su?"

Although he is an unmarried man, and there is a little maid beside Su Chu, he still has to be cautious.Especially this Chunguang Pavilion, although it advertises that reading is supreme, it is actually a tea house that creates opportunities for men and women to meet by chance.

No one knows better than Song Jingxing.

The girl who had been his childhood sweetheart and kept saying that she wanted to marry him met her current husband just after sending some snacks to Chunguang Pavilion.But in just one month, Qingmei got married.That incident made Tao Liuniang so angry that she burned the rice several times while cooking.

Compared to Song Jingxing's prudence, Su Chu was more generous: "Mr. Song, please sit down. This is the tea I made. Mr. Song, let's taste it and see how my craftsmanship is."

Song Jingxing looked at Su Chu.

Su Chu, who was sitting at the table at this time, was a little different from the resolute woman who was red-eyed and resolute in Su's house yesterday.

To be honest, Su Chu's appearance is not bad.At this time she was smiling, although she didn't use makeup on her face, but the young girl who was raised by gold and jade since she was a child has smooth and flawless skin, which is enough to make men yearn for.

Song Jingxing didn't want to sit down.He said indifferently: "What's the matter, Miss Su?"

Facing Song Jingxing's refusal, Su Chu didn't care too much, picked up the teacup in her slender hand, and smiled happily: "Brother Song is not engaged yet?"

She changed her name.The voice is soft and watery.

Song Jingxing's eyes darkened at the sound of Big Brother Song.

He looked at Su Chu with clear eyes: "Song is not engaged."

Su Chu got up slowly, walked gracefully, looked at Song Jingxing with a pair of almond eyes, and slightly parted her cherry lips: "Su Chu is not engaged either. Don't worry about Brother Song, would you like to marry me?"

Song Jingxing frowned: "Miss Su..." He just saved it, Chunguang Pavilion is a strange place, and people can't help but say some inappropriate words.It is shocking for a girl to propose marriage to a man she has only met once.

"Hush." ​​Su Chu stretched out a finger and pressed it gently on her moist lips, "Brother Song, listen to me."

"I have a good impression of Brother Song. Brother Song can save me. I lost my father at the beginning, and my grandfather is getting old. Now because of my father's death, my grandfather is not in good health. I don't care how long I can last. I am Su The only daughter of the family, although the news of her father's death has not been spread, but many relatives have spared it. These days, although the matchmakers dare not make a big show, several of them have come."

She smiled, mocking herself a bit: "They all persuaded me to marry early so that I can find a husband who can support me. Is it possible that I, a woman, can't support the Su family? I After thinking about it carefully for several nights, I discovered that the capital of Lu Kingdom cannot accommodate an unmarried woman to support the family."

"But I don't want to do what they want."

"If I want to marry, I also want to marry the person I like."

Song Jingxing looked at Su Chu quietly.

Su Chu held on to the teacup and looked at Song Jingxing without blinking.

It is undeniable that at this moment, Su Chu, although she did not show a delicate and pitiful look, there was an inexplicable feeling inside.Although she was proposing to a man, she didn't mean to be humble at all.

Someone downstairs was chanting aloud: "The peach is so young, its flowers are scorching. When the son returns home, it is suitable for his family."

Song Jingxing remained motionless.

Su Chu almost came to him.She walked a few steps forward, and she would touch Song Jingxing's body.

But to go any further, it would be too shameful.

Su Chu's eyes suddenly filled with tears.

Her voice was low: "A few days ago, I received a letter from Auntie, saying that she is now three months pregnant."

Song Jingxing finally had light in his eyes, and moved slightly.

The little girl in front of her was actually proposing to her at the expense of face in order to protect her aunt and her unborn younger siblings.

But he has only met her once, and she has a crush on him?
If it were someone else, they might have already eagerly responded.

Grandfather is a high-ranking official, and the wealth and splendor of the Su family is still there. Although there is an unborn sister-in-law or brother-in-law to protect, no matter how you look at it, it is a good deal.

Furthermore, the woman in front of her is also good looking.

He also asked himself to marry him.If they get married in the future, their position in the relationship between husband and wife will definitely have the upper hand.

Song Jingxing opened his mouth with a steady breath: "If Miss Su wants to be self-reliant and protect her family, Song will definitely do her best to help Miss Su."

Su Chu was taken aback.This is Song Jingxing, declined her?He said that he would rather do his best to help her than marry her?She was so ugly that Song Jingxing rejected her?

Song Jingxing said: "It's late at night, Miss Su should go back earlier. If Miss Su goes out for a long time and doesn't return, Su Shangshu will be worried."

Su Shangshu would be worried, but the man in front of him would not.

The way he looked at him was calm and devoid of emotion.

Su Chu's voice suddenly became brighter: "Thank you, Mr. Song, for reminding me."

Song Jingxing gave her a light bow, turned around and strode out of the green water room.

He walked fast, and the figure quickly disappeared.

The little maid waiting outside waited for a while, but she still didn't hear her own girl call her in.Just as he was hesitating, he suddenly heard the girl say: "Xiao Chi, come in."

Xiaochi entered the door, and his face was a little bit angrily: "Girl..."

Su Chu looked at her, and said word by word: "Tonight's matter, I will rot in my stomach, don't mention it for the rest of my life."

She, Su Chu, proposed marriage to a man whose family was lower than her, but was rejected.It was a lifetime of shame.

She gritted her silver teeth lightly, sat back on the chair, and fiddled with the teacup in her hand.

Her mother is indeed pregnant in March.Fortunately, Dad felt something was wrong before, so he sent A Niang back to Kyoto more than a month earlier.

At this time, A Niang is hiding in a safe place to raise her baby.

Not to mention whether the younger brothers and sisters in the womb can grow up safely, even after birth, whether they can grow up safely is even more unknown.

Grandfather is old, and all the burdens of the Su family fall on her alone.

Those clansmen who avoided them like snakes and scorpions before suddenly appeared again, showing all kinds of hypocritical care, but actually wanted to take the Su family's money into their own pockets.

Don't say that grandfather is unwilling, and she is not unwilling either.Why.When the grandfather was in decline, and when the father was demoted, those people were not optimistic about their family.Her marriage was delayed like that.But now that his father died, those people had such damn bad thoughts.

She looked at the tea in the teacup and suddenly smiled again.

Song Jingxing, since he promised to help her, she would not be stingy about sending her.

Their Su family shouldn't have fallen like this.
