No longer taking advantage of his tricks, Lin Baoer exposed him with an expressionless face, "Stop pretending, Ah Shen wrote to me saying that you didn't send anyone to look for the person at all, you just asked your people to show off to us."

"Yes, I was blindly credulous. How could a dignified only son and the nephew of a border deputy general take the initiative to go to such a dangerous place? After all, lives can be lost there if you are not careful."

Not angry at being exposed by her, Yuqi slowly placed the bowl of soup next to Lin Baoer, then put a piece of tofu over it, "Yes, I did let someone show it off to you."

He smiled without changing his face, put down his chopsticks, and pretended to be worried for Lin Bao'er and advised, "But I'm also thinking about you, Bao'er. The desert is so dangerous, haven't you heard the rumors? Nine out of ten people who go in will die. , it is extremely lucky to survive, and some of them are missing arms and legs."

"How could I see you like that?"

Yuqi held her hand with concern in his eyes, "Bao'er, listen to me and don't go, okay? What's so good about other countries? Isn't our Taiping Kingdom prosperous? Why do we have to go to other places to suffer hardships?"

"You know, no matter what your status is in the Taiping Kingdom, when you go there, you are equivalent to a civilian. The officials may beat and scold you at the slightest chance, and you won't be able to bear it."

"And you see, in the rest of his life, only three people from the team he led earlier came back, and a total of twelve people died!"

The emotions in Yuqi's eyes fluctuated, "How can a person with such incompetence put his life in his hands?"

Lin Baoer didn't say anything, just looked at him expressionlessly.

If that's not enough, Yu Qi squeezed the delicate hand in her palm and said affectionately, "So why not come with me? I can take you wherever you want to go, whether it's the snowy top of the mountain or the loess dragon." Cave, if you want."

"As long as you are willing, in the name of my wife, you will enjoy endless glory and wealth, and..."

Lin Baoer pulled her lips, took her hand out of his hand forcefully, wiped it on her body as if it was dirty, and mocked, "Do I need your glory and wealth?"

Seeing this, Yu Qi was not upset, a glimmer of light shone in his eyes, and he smiled, "I forgot, Bao'er should not be short of money, but what about his rights?"

"Since we are a merchant family, we should know that merchants are always inferior to government officials. Even if you have a fortune, no matter how wealthy you are, any county magistrate can control that merchant to death."

"But I'm different." Yu Qi smiled conceitedly, "My uncle is the deputy general of the border. No one can tolerate what our Yu family can do. As long as Bao'er you marry into my family, the Lin family will also take shelter in the Yu family. Even if he is the prefect, he will I will look down upon your family."

His face was full of "Aren't you tempted by this?"

But Lin Bao'er just felt like laughing, and she did laugh, "Don't you know that the county magistrate of Acropolis was ruined by me?"

Yuqi raised his eyebrows and didn't take it seriously, "I checked and found out that the Wang family had done a lot of evil in the area and the people had long criticized it. You were just borrowing a bridge to take a boat. The one who punished him was Governor Qi of Qinzhou City. At that time It happened that Governor Qi was passing by the Acropolis, so we got this."

This was naturally Lin Baoer's deliberate smoke bomb.

"I have to say that Bao'er is very lucky and courageous." Yu Qi smiled, "She is the most suitable wife for me."

"It's just..." He hesitated again, pretending to be entangled and hesitant, "It's just that you also know that a person of my status cannot help who he marries. The position next to him must be able to bring benefits to the family. interests, so I’m afraid you won’t be allowed to enter the Jade Mansion as my wife by then.”

"But don't worry!" Yuqi explained sincerely, "After everything is stable, I will ask my mother to marry a gentle and virtuous man back. Without her further discussion, I will make you an equal wife. This way, you will have the best of both worlds." "Bao'er, are you willing to wait for that day? Are you willing to believe me?" He looked at Lin Bao'er lovingly, as if he wanted to drown her in his deep love.

I'm afraid he was almost moved to death by himself, but Lin Baoer only almost laughed angrily at him.

This man made himself very affectionate both inside and outside his words, making people think it was such an honor to be his wife.

Nonsence!

Lin Baoer rubbed the goosebumps on her arms and stroked the nausea that surged into her chest.

Not looking at what he looks like, the toad wants to eat the swan's flesh.

Lin Baoer was too lazy to make excuses with him and said bluntly, "I don't want to."

Yuqi was stunned, thinking he heard wrongly, "Bao'er, what did you say?"

Lin Baoer stared at him, word by word, even with a smile, "I said, I - don't - want to!"

Yuqi frowned, thinking it was because she was upset by letting Lin Baoer become a concubine first, so he explained in a roundabout way: "Don't worry, it will only last for a year and a half at most. I will carry a big sedan to welcome you in, here." Before that, why don't you just feel aggrieved for me?"

[I feel sorry for your mother. 】

Lin Baoer has never seen such a shameless person.

"I don't like you, why should I feel wronged for you?" Lin Baoer mocked, "It's inexplicable. Did I say that I like you? Or did I say that I was willing to marry you? We have only been together for a few days. , it’s your own business that you like me, I didn’t say I like you.”

"Also, are your Yu family great? You always think that I am not good enough for you and can only be your concubine. Bah! I still don't like you! It's like I'm sick! Do you think you are good-looking? ? All the girls in the city must like you? Stop dreaming about your childhood dreams. Do you still remember the person beside me before? Ashen is 10,000 times prettier than you. If he likes me, he also likes you. Where can he get your turn? "

"While eating the food in my mouth, I still think about the inside of the pot. I also want to marry a gentle and virtuous person. If I were me, I wouldn't think about the toad wanting to eat swan meat. Can a girl like you marry someone else if she likes you? Why, Didn't your mother teach you how to be self-effacing? Just because you have a few bad money in the family? Does your identity as the deputy general's nephew allow you to mention it eight hundred times? Those who don't know think you are a border official. As for the deputy general, it is shameless to rely on others' power to show off his power here."

"If I were you, I would seek an official position myself. It would be like using my family's power to ask for attention from a girl. It would mean nothing!"

Lin Baoer took a deep breath and drank the soup at hand.

She was exhausted, and it had been a long time since she had scolded her so comfortably.

On the other hand, Yu Qi's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. His fingers were trembling as he pointed at her, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak.

"you you……"

Lin Baoer was disdainful, "Why, you can't even speak clearly now? If you become a stutterer, no one will want you." (End of Chapter)
