Chapter 458: Are you competing to see who has the richest mines now?
Everyone could see that Su Yueyao looked unhappy. Yang Qianxun didn't say much because there were outsiders present. Lu Yuanyi, who was standing by, gently squeezed Su Yueyao's hand.
Su Yueyao let out a light breath and relaxed her expression. She was an orphan and she didn't ask anyone to marry her. This feeling of being looked down upon made her even more upset.
On the one hand, these noble families are attracted by her fertility, and on the other hand, they want to control her. This behavior is really disgusting.
When she entered Fengdu and married Cui Yiyang and the others, she never sensed a trace of malice from them. Instead, she felt more peace from them. They did not try to please her, nor did they act like young masters from wealthy families and look down on her.
Or make things difficult for her, even if they think something is right, they never try to change her mind, but accompany her to accept it slowly, this is the reason why she can accept them so quickly!
She thought that all the young masters from noble families were like them, but who knew that there was such a high and mighty family as the Chu family.
Su Yueyao came back to her senses and looked at the two young masters she didn't recognize who were present. After what happened to this young master from the Chu family, she didn't want to talk to them anymore.
Especially with this comparison, Nanfeng and Urayasu were much better. Whether they were deep-minded or had their own purposes, they never thought of hurting her.
After seeing Su Yueyao calm down, Yang Qianxun said softly, "Ayao, this is the son of the Xu family in Fenglinzhou, fifty miles away from Fengdu. His name is Xu Minghe, and he is twenty-one years old."
Su Yueyao looked at Xu Minghe, only to find that this man was the young man wearing double-sided embroidery that Xingchen asked her to see yesterday?
She is indeed good-looking, with a pair of black, clear, and bright phoenix eyes as cold stars. Her narrow and long eyes are cold and noble, yet have a mysterious and deep sense of alienation. The slightly upturned tails of her eyes add a bit of fierce pressure.
Su Yueyao only took a glance and then shifted her gaze. Looking into his eyes made her want to escape.
"Lady Su, my name is Xu Minghe. Lady Su, would you like to move?" Xu Minghe felt Su Yueyao's eyes flash by and evade, so he bowed slightly and asked.
"Okay!" Su Yueyao took a deep breath and walked towards the yard.
Xu Minghe lagged behind Su Yueyao half a step.
"Ms. Su, can we go to the pavilion at the front door?" Xu Minghe asked.
"can."
The two of them entered the pavilion, and Su Yueyao sat down directly, only to find Xu Minghe standing beside them in an orderly manner.
"Mr. Xu, please take a seat."
"Thank you."
Xu Minghe sat opposite Su Yueyao.
At this time, Chunri led the servants to bring some cakes, tea and the like. After placing them, Chunri and the others bowed and retreated outside the pavilion. Su Yueyao looked up at Xu Minghe again.
That high nose bridge, those thin lips, wow... these facial features are so delicate, every one of them is just right, exuding an innate nobility, as if an extraordinary breath comes from the bones. This person is really outstanding, better than the stars, but there is a real sense of oppression.
Whether it is the posture when walking or the appearance when standing, it is full of elegance and composure. There is no need to say more about her demeanor. Her calmness and grandeur seem to be able to suppress everything in the world.
Su Yueyao shifted her gaze again. This guy was really hard to control!
Xu Minghe reached out and poured a glass of water for Su Yueyao and asked, "Miss Su, are you dissatisfied with me?"
Su Yueyao was shaken by Xu Minghe's slender fingers. Not only was this man good-looking, but even his hands were so beautiful.
"Ms. Su?"
"I'm not dissatisfied, I just feel a sense of oppression when I'm with Master Xu."
Xu Minghe didn't expect Su Yueyao to say this. He replied with a smile: "Since I am here to choose Lady Su's servant, I will not hurt you. Lady Su, don't be nervous."
Su Yueyao looked at Xu Minghe, who was smiling, and her first reaction was that this man was a smiling tiger, but she had to say that his phoenix eyes looked even more beautiful when he smiled.
Su Yueyao once again avoided her sight...
"Does Miss Su know the Xu family?"
“I haven’t heard of it before.”
"I guess Lady Su has never heard of Fenglinzhou Prefecture? There are two mountains northwest of Fengdu, and Fenglinzhou is inside. The ancestors of the Xu family conquered Fengluan Kingdom together with the empress. Fenglinzhou has always been under the jurisdiction of the Xu family. We just need to pay taxes to the court every year."
"Mr. Xu's ancestors were so outstanding, isn't it a waste of talent for him to serve as my emperor?"
Su Yueyao felt numb inside, no wonder he was so powerful.
"Lady Su is also very good. She was able to write so many masterpieces that have been passed down through the ages. She has no family behind her but is still able to hold the position of Grand Tutor to the Imperial Concubine."
"Mr. Xu, are you attracted by my ability to give birth to a daughter?" Su Yueyao asked, not wanting to hear the compliments.
"No, I just want to find a woman I like to marry. Miss Su is very suitable for me in every way."
"With your conditions and looks, you won't be able to find a suitable woman in your Xu family's territory in Fenglinzhou. You are the master, and you are already 21 years old. If you don't get married, the court will send you into exile, right?"
"Indeed, that's why I came to participate in the selection of concubines. I want to marry you!" Xu Minghe suddenly moved closer to Su Yueyao and said.
"Really...? Nowadays, those who want to marry me are after my fertility. What is your purpose in marrying me..." Su Yueyao avoided the question.
"Does Miss Su think I have a purpose?"
"Otherwise! You should have seen how many people participated in the quiz in the past two days. I don't have any advantages compared to those women from aristocratic families. My biggest advantage now is that I gave birth to twin daughters."
"In my generation of the Xu family, my sister has already given birth to a daughter, so I don't have to worry about the issue of the Xu family's heirs. Miss Su can rest assured about this."
"I just heard that you are very talented. There are students in Fenglinzhou who brought many books written by Lady Su. I have also seen many of your paintings. I like Lady Su's talent very much, so I asked my mother to come and choose a servant for you."
"I see. But Mr. Xu, I don't really want to choose. I am forced to choose by the situation in Fengdu. When the time comes, you will all live in the side courtyard. I won't get along with you."
"Is that so?" Xu Minghe frowned when he heard it, and looked at Su Yueyao with a sharp look.
Su Yueyao was frightened by the sudden look, and the feeling of oppression came back again.
Xu Minghe's pair of phoenix eyes are like a spring breeze when he smiles, but when he looks at you without smiling, he silently carries a cold and oppressive feeling, and his inherent aura is truly embodied!
"That's right." Su Yueyao said, suppressing the urge to avoid it.
"That's fine too. Miss Su, when you are painting or writing in your study, can I serve you?"
"This....I don't think it's necessary..."
"Can I pay silver? This time when I came out, my mother gave me a jade mine as a gift to Miss Su!" Xu Minghe said as he took out a land deed from his chest.
Su Yueyao gasped after hearing this. Is it a competition to see who has more mines now?
This....jade mine...
