636 Unexpectedly Close at Hand
Shi Qingluo looked at Xi Rui and knew that he didn’t think too much.
“Let me ask you a question. If you marry a wife in the future, how will you treat her?” she asked with a smile.
Xi Rui looked up at her and said honestly, “”Bring her along to eat, drink, and have fun?”
“Cough cough…” King Yi, who was drinking tea, almost spat it out, but he still choked on it.!!
Shi Qingluo didn’t expect Xi Rui to say that. She thought it was quite interesting.
“Will your family say things if you’re bringing your wife out to eat, drink, and have fun?” she asked.
Xi Rui shook his head. “Of course not. My grandmother and mother said that I’m the youngest son and don’t have to bear the responsibility of the Public House. My wife and I just have to live happily in the future.”
He couldn’t help but glance at Xiao Baili from the corner of his eyes. The tips of his ears turned red. “I’ll treat my wife well too.”
“If she wants to go out to play, I’ll go out with her. If she wants to eat something, I’ll cook with her.”
“What if your elders don’t like her, or she has a conflict with your elders?” Shi Qingluo asked.
Xi Rui thought for a moment. “That’s not possible. My grandmother and mother are not evil mothers-in-law. They are very tolerant of their granddaughters-in-law.”
“What if it happens?” Shi Qingluo asked. “What would you do?”
Xi Rui thought for a moment and said, “If my wife doesn’t get along with the elders in the family, I won’t go against the elders who love me because of this. But I can take her out to live and separate them. It’ll be nice to stay far away.”
Although he felt sorry for his wife, he couldn’t let go of the love he had for his elders.
He would not make things difficult for his wife for the sake of his elders, nor would he contradict his elders for his wife. He would feel sorry for both sides and balance them.
Then, they could only live separately. When the time came, they would not be bothered by either side. He was really a smart guy.
Shi Qingluo saw Xi Rui’s small eyes drift towards Bai Li, and then her ears turned red. She realized that this little tyrant was quite innocent.
“What if your family doesn’t allow it?” she asked with a smile.
Xi Rui patted his chest. “I’m the most favored one in the family. If the elders don’t allow it, I’ll go and coax Grandmother and Mother. Then I’ll stop eating until they agree.”
This was what he used to do when he wanted to achieve something.
Everyone present was speechless. This method really made them speechless.
It had to be said that Xi Rui had been raised by the High Duke’s Public House to be very innocent. Although he wasn’t stupid, his personality was really simple and direct.
But to be honest, Shi Qingluo was moved by his words.
It meant that Xi Rui had never thought of tying his wife to the back of the house. He wanted to bring his wife along while he ate, drank, and played. This was good.
And he wouldn’t let his wife be wronged by the elders. Although he couldn’t go against the elders who loved him, he could still live elsewhere with his wife.
If Xi Rui had said that he could go against his elders for his wife, Qing Luo would have thought that his parents had given birth to a wooden club and that he might as well go back to the furnace and be reborn.
If he wanted his wife to be the one to suffer for the sake of her elders, that would not do either.
Xi Rui knew how to balance the elders and the wife.
Shi Qingluo was not the only one who was satisfied with Xi Rui’s answer. King Yi, Xiao Hanzheng and even Mother Xiao were satisfied.
Xiao Baili didn’t think that it had anything to do with her, but her eyes lit up when she looked at Xi Rui.
Whoever marries Brother Rui in the future will definitely be very happy.
She was not as ambitious as Sister Xi Rong. She did not want to not get married, but she also hoped that her future husband could eat, drink, and have fun together with her.
Like what her sister-in-law said, being able to travel hand in hand with your spouse every year to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Daliang, explore the exotic charm of the Western Regions, and even go out to sea and see the world outside, sounds wonderful just thinking about it.
However, such a man was too hard to find.
I’m afraid that only Brother Rui is left.
When she thought of this, she looked at Xi Rui with brighter eyes.
Brother Rui was not engaged yet, and he did not have a woman he liked or was close to. Could she make the first move?
Sister-in-law had said that if she saw something good, she had to make the first move. Otherwise, it would be snatched away by others.
Of course, if she couldn’t snatch him, it meant that she wasn’t fated to be with him, so there was no need to force it.
An opportunity was given to those who were prepared. Once they saw it, they had to seize it.
Then, Shi Qingluo saw the way her sister-in-law looked at Xi Rui. The more she looked at him, the more she looked like she was looking at a fat fish.
She thought that she had only wanted to test Xi Rui today, but she seemed to have opened a door for her sister-in-law.
Xi Rui felt that Xiao Baili was looking at him. He looked up and met her sparkling eyes.
The tips of his ears turned even redder, and he quickly avoided it in embarrassment.
Aiya, did Baili also think that he was right? It was really embarrassing.
Xiao Baili found his innocent reaction amusing. She didn’t expect Brother Rui to be such a shy person.
As Sister-in-law said, he was indeed a tsundere!
King Yi was a very sensitive person, so he naturally noticed that Xi Rui was looking at his eldest daughter strangely.
This shameless playboy, he actually blushed?
When he looked at his eldest daughter, why did he suddenly feel as if Xi Rui was being teased by her eyes…
So, when he dealt with Liang Youxiao previously, he was actually dealing with the wrong person?
Was Xi Rui the real pig who wanted to steal their cabbages?
Shi Qingluo found it more and more fun. She looked at Xi Rui and asked, “By the way, did you have any concubines in the past?”
Xi Rui quickly shook his head and said with some disdain, “No, I don’t like those ugly girls.”
Shi Qingluo nodded. No wonder he was so innocent.
“Then, will you take a concubine after you get married?” she asked again.
She was asking on behalf of her sister-in-law. Looking at her eyes, and seeing the way her sister-in-law looked at him, she suddenly felt that it was Xi Rui who was going to be taken away…
“Why marry so many women?” Xi Rui asked without hesitation. “When the time comes, women will fight and even their children will fight. The house will be without peace.”
“As for me, I only need to marry one wife. It’s annoying to have too many women.”
He really thought so.
The women in his uncle’s harem liked to fight. There were also a few princes who fought openly and secretly.
His father had few women, but he also had illegitimate sons and daughters, so his relationship with his legitimate sons was not good.
There were many women in his third uncle’s backyard. It was a mess. It was often chaotic. There were many legitimate sons and illegitimate sons who tried to hinder each other in order to fight for favor.
Therefore, he felt that one woman was enough. It was better to have a legitimate son.
Shi Qingluo was getting more and more satisfied with Xi Rui. “Does your family have high expectations for your wife’s status?”
The Liang family’s princess consort despised her identity as a farmer’s daughter.
Xi Rui immediately said, “Of course not. My mother said that as long as I like her and she has a good character, no matter what her identity is, my family doesn’t need me to marry her to strengthen the family.”
These words made Xiao Baili’s eyes shine even brighter.
Aiya, Brother Rui is really an excellent choice to be a husband.
He did not take in concubines, did not tie his wife down in the backyard, and would bring his wife to eat, drink, and play together. He did not have to worry about his livelihood. The elders in the family also seemed to be very easy to talk to. Why did it feel like this was tailor-made for her?
Because every time she thought about what kind of family she would marry into in the future, she could not help but think of these conditions.
Then, she felt that she was simply fantasizing. How could there be such a person in the world? Even if there was, it was too rare to encounter one.
She didn’t expect that the guy was right before her eyes.
