Bestow glory to the king

Chapter 193 Give Me Your Hand (2)
"That day I heard the Duke and the old matriarch mention you."

Xie Yuan was shocked: "Ah? Why did you mention me?"

Seeing her staring wide eyes and slightly parted lips, Shen Xi couldn't find it funny, and said, "It seems like I heard something about you from somewhere, it was that time..."

Xie Meng immediately understood what it was about, presumably the old matriarch heard it from the old lady of the Jing'an Hou Mansion, the master knew the inside story about that matter, so Xie Meng didn't feel guilty and embarrassed in front of Shen Xi, but just felt sorry for him. Those who spread rumors are very angry, but their mouths are on other people, and she can't control what others say. Think about it, they just listened to the wind and rumors, and they can spread the matter in private. If she was arrested that day One can imagine how the rumors spread.

"The Duke also asked if you have a family..."

Shen Xi continued to talk about this topic, but Xie Yuan didn't understand again.When the Duke heard about her "great achievements", he even asked her if she had a family?
After Shen Xi said these two sentences, he also felt that some words did not convey the meaning, but he brought her here today, in fact, for this matter, put down the teacup, Shen Xi took a deep breath, and asked again: "You , have you ever thought about what kind of person you will marry in the future?"

Xie Yu just felt that the master's three consecutive sentences made her not know how to answer. The first two sentences were fine, they were just ordinary statements, and it was okay if she didn't answer them, but the third sentence was a real question. If you don't answer, you can't justify it.Although she also knew that if the master asked this question on ordinary girls, it would be very abrupt.

Seeing his master's clear eyes staring at him, Xie Meng also put down his cup seriously, and said to Shen Xi: "I want to marry someone... who will be good to me."

Shen Xi's eyes moved slightly: "What else? Do you have any requirements for identity?"

Master, what's the matter?Xie Meng looked at Shen Xi puzzled, but still replied obediently: "There is no requirement for status, as long as the character is better, it doesn't matter if the family is poor."

"oh, I see."

Shen Xi listened to Xie Yuan's answer, nodded thoughtfully, and then said nothing, just when Xie Yuan thought their conversation was over, Shen Xi suddenly spoke again and said, "I've passed I'm twenty years old, and I'm at the age of getting married. My family once arranged for me to have two relatives, but... none of them succeeded. Before they got engaged, something happened to them, so I haven't been able to get engaged to this day."

Holding the teacup, Xie Yuan stared blankly at Shen Xi who seemed to be reporting his wealth. He didn't know how to react for a moment, and after a long while, he remembered to respond: "Oh, oh. Yes."

After Shen Xi said those words, he felt awkward, and he didn't look into Xie Yuan's eyes, but smiled at her, then picked up the teacup again, and started to suck.

Due to Xie Yu's lack of strength, the conversation between the two did not last long. After drinking tea, Shen Xi pointed to the bookshelf and asked Xie Yu to pick a book to read. Flip through the books that have not been read before.
