Chapter 113 The Difficulty of a Single Family
After the initial surprise, Li Yu regained his composure, and while gently patting Shan Ruier's back to help her feel better, he said slowly, "Okay, Ruier, tell my sister what happened. What happened? Well, why did you run away from home?"

Shan Rui'er sobbed and said, "Sister Yu, in fact, I've been mentally prepared for a long time. I've expected that I would not be able to marry the person I like. Women's marriages have always been ordered by their parents. I know, I have always known, I don't blame my mother, I know she can't help herself, but, but I am not reconciled! I am really not reconciled!"

Although Shan Rui'er didn't explain clearly, but Li Yu made it clear that Shan Rui'er might be dissatisfied with the marriage this time, that's why she ran out, but how old is Shan Rui'er?How many years are there before getting married?Why is the Shan family going to marry her off now?Li Yu felt that it was impossible, but since Shan Rui'er said so, then things should... Li Yu had a lot of doubts.

"Rui'er? Your mother asked you to marry? But at your age..."

"Sister Yu, it's my father, and my father wants to use my daughter to solve the difficulties of the Shan family!" When Shan Rui'er said this, the look on her face was sad and desperate.

Li Yu's brows were about to wrinkle together, "What do you mean? What happened to your family?"

At this time, Shan Rui'er was no longer crying, her eyes were so blank and empty, and she slowly told about the Shan family in a sad voice.

When Shan Rui'er finished speaking, Lian'er slapped the table angrily, and said loudly, "How can this be? The father and son of this family are so shameless, how can they force you to marry a fool?"

"Lian'er, don't shout, sit down." Granny Liu was also furious, but not as exaggerated as Lian'er jumping up.

From Shan Ruier's narration, everyone understands the truth about Shan Ruier's disappearance. It turns out that the Shan family's silk business is really big, and they are even worshiped in the palace. The Shan family can also be regarded as Royal merchants.This year coincides with the Empress Dowager's [-]th birthday, and just one month later, the Ministry of Internal Affairs requires the Shan family to pay a tribute of the latest and best silk. If it is not handed in by then, the Shan family will be punished.This is difficult for the Shan family. After all, where can I get a new type of silk that can make the Queen Mother look good in a short time?

After receiving the message from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the entire Shan family became busy, trying to find a way around, and finally the shopkeeper of the Shan family's silk and satin shop reported that they had found a kind of ice silk.According to the shopkeeper, this ice silk is spit out by Tianshan ice silkworms. The satin woven with this silk is extremely soft and cool, and it feels extremely cool to wear in summer.

At first, Shan Lianjue was suspicious of what the shopkeeper said, but after a few days, the shopkeeper took a small strand of ice silk and offered it to Master Shan, who is Shan Ruier's father, and Master Shan saw that what he said was true. I was very happy and hurriedly asked the shopkeeper to buy ice silk from someone.

The shopkeeper first patted his chest and agreed, saying that he would definitely buy ice silk within three days, and then paid Master Shan a very high purchase fee.The members of the Shan family have been waiting for the news of the shopkeeper, but they have not heard the news after waiting for three full days. When Master Shan sent someone to look for it, they found that the shopkeeper had long since disappeared.

Master Shan also knew that he had been fooled, but the time ordered by the above is not far away. If the new silk cannot be handed over by then, the Shan family may suffer a catastrophe. This is also the fault of Master Shan. I took it lightly, and when I learned that there was such a rare thing as ice silk, I recruited all the people who had been sent out to look for it, and I just waited for the ice silk, so the time limit is not enough now. Send someone to look for it again.

Just when the Shan family was in a state of misery, someone came to visit.This person is Mr. Zhang who proposed marriage to the Shan family for his stupid son.Mr. Zhang's reputation in Anyang City is not very good. Everyone says that he is insidious and cunning, and he belongs to the kind of person who does not get up early without benefit.Master Shan is already in a state of desperation at this time, how can he still have the mind to deal with him?Originally, I wanted to find an excuse to decline, but I heard from a well-informed person that Mr. Zhang claimed to have ice silk in his hands.

After hearing this, Master Shan naturally wouldn't chase people away, and hurriedly went out to greet him in person.After the two sat down in the hall, Master Zhang said that he had the ice silk in his hand, and brought some samples to Master Shan. Master Shan was overjoyed when he saw it, and quickly said that he would pay a high price to buy it.

But who would have thought that Mr. Zhang didn't want money, and only said that he wanted the daughter of the Shan family to marry his only son.Master Shan's complexion changed as soon as he said these words. I don't know if this master has done too many immoral things. He is already at the age of knowing his destiny. There are countless wives and concubines in his family, but he only has one son. He is still a fool!There are not many people in Anyang City who don't know about this matter, and now he actually wants his prostitute daughter to marry his stupid son, how can Master Shan look good?

Master Shan wanted to refute it, but Master Zhang said that as long as people don't need money, otherwise the ice silk will never be sold to the Shan family!
Master Shan was hesitant for a while, so he could only comfort Master Zhang first, saying that he wanted to think about it. Master Zhang might be confident that Master Shan would agree in the end, and he didn't force him. He just reminded Master Shan when he was leaving that he waited. Yes, but the boss can't wait, so he walks away after speaking.

Master Shan still loves his daughter. After Master Zhang left, he sent out all the people he could, trying to find ice silk or other substitutes from other places within the time limit, but everyone failed. return.In the end, Master Shan decided to sacrifice Shan Rui'er for the sake of the entire Shan family, and that's why Shan Rui'er ran away from home today.After hearing the cause and effect of the incident, Li Yu sighed, this is a society where the imperial power is supreme, because the above sentence made Shan Rui'er a child sacrifice his life's happiness, or sacrificed the life of the entire Shan family.

Li Yu saw that Shan Rui'er started to cry silently again, so he could only hug her silently, hoping to give her some strength, Li Yu couldn't do anything else, no amount of comfort would be empty words.

Granny Liu and Wei Shi just sat aside and looked at Shan Rui'er with pity in their eyes, Lian'er bit her lip and looked at Shan Rui'er sadly.At this time, everyone was immersed in boundless bitterness and sentimentality, no one spoke, only Shan Ruier's low sobs echoed in the room for a long time.

Just as everyone was immersed in this sad atmosphere, there was a knock on the door outside the yard.Lian Er moved after hearing the sound, and quickly got up to open the door, she couldn't bear the atmosphere in the room.When Lian'er opened the door, she saw a single chain standing outside the door!Lian'er's first reaction when she saw Shan Rui'er was - he's here to catch Shan Rui'er!The second reaction is - close the door!
Lian'er just glanced at Shanlian, and before he could speak, she closed the door again with a "bang".Shanlian sighed when he saw the closed door in front of him, it seems that Ruier is here!
After Shan Chain sighed, he stretched out his hand and started to knock on the door, but Lian Er had already run into the house, "Miss! It's not good! Mr. Shan came to the door! What should I do? Do you want to hide Miss Shan? Hide it in the backyard go, okay?"

Before Lian Er could stand still, she talked a lot like a cannonball, making Li Yu dumbfounded. When Lian Er stopped, she said helplessly, "Where is Mr. Shan? Please come in!"

Lian'er stared at Li Yu incredulously, her voice was full of doubts and disbelief, "Miss! If you let him in, Miss Shan will be taken away! If you take him away, you will marry a fool!"

Li Yu suddenly felt a little headache, Shan Rui'er didn't react yet, but Lian'er overreacted! "Let me ask you, is Mr. Shan the only one here?"

Lian'er was a little puzzled, but she still nodded.

"That's it, please come in Mr. Shan, he shouldn't be here to catch Rui'er!"

Although Lian Er was a little hesitant, she was used to believing Li Yu's words, so she only paused for a moment before opening the door, Lian Er led the Duanlian who was standing outside the door into the main room, "Young Master Shan, sit down. "

"Thank you, Miss Lian'er. I don't know if my sister is here?"

"Young Master Shan, are you safe?" Before Lian Er could speak, Li Yu had already walked out of the house.

When Shan Jian saw Li Yu, he hurriedly got up and saluted, "Miss Li, I'm sorry to bother you."

"Young Master Shan, you don't need to be polite, sit down. Lian Er, go and pour a cup of tea for Young Master Shan." Lian Er nodded and went to the kitchen to make tea.

"Don't bother!" Shan Chain said, Lian'er had already stepped out of the door, so Shan Chain had to sit down again.

Li Yu just looked at the single chain and didn't speak.Shan Jian smiled wryly, "Miss Li, Rui'er must be here, can you let her out?"

Li Yu looked at Shan Jian, wondering what his plans were for Shan Rui'er.Although Li Yu's intuition told her that Shan Jian didn't come to catch Shan Rui'er back, but she still wanted to hear from Shan Jian himself.

Looking at Li Yu's expression, Shan Jian probably guessed what she was thinking, sighed and said to Li Yu, "Miss Li, I didn't come to catch Rui'er back, I just want to know if she is okay." Continuing helplessly, "She just ran out so silently, my aunt was very worried, and fainted in a panic..."

Before Duan Jian finished speaking, Shan Rui'er opened the door curtain and ran out of the house, and asked eagerly holding Duan Chain's hand, "Cousin! How is my mother? It's all my fault! It's my fault! I'm worried!" Shan Rui'er started crying again while talking.

"Okay, you are still so impatient, you don't listen to me. Don't worry, my aunt is fine, I only came out when she woke up." Shan Jian patted Shan Ruier's head kindly to comfort her.

After hearing this, Shan Rui'er felt better, she only looked at Shan Jian with a pair of big wet eyes, and Duan Jian lamented constantly, finally pulled Shan Rui'er to a chair and sat down, looked at her several times and wanted to speak And stop.Shan Chain actually didn't even know why he came to Shan Rui'er!
The single chain is also very powerless about this matter, he and his uncle have already researched it, and both of them think that this incident is probably a trap, but I don't know when the old master got Rui'er's idea?Or is it the idea of ​​a single family?Does this tribute incident have the shadow of the Zhang family?But this family has such a great ability?

Shanlian knows how sad his uncle made the decision to abandon Ruier and keep the Shan family, but now it seems that there is no way to solve it.If there is a way to single-chain yourself, why would you want to be a person who can only live by his cousin?
