Chapter 201 I don’t like you
In fact, she had some guesses in her heart, but when Tang Wenle said it so bluntly, she didn't know what to do for a moment.
Seeing Yun Shu was silent, Tang Wenle emphasized again: "I like you, I want to marry you, I want to be with you, do you understand?"
Yun Shu: ...
Her feelings were very complicated at this time. Although she did not reject him in her heart, she had never thought about marrying him. She still wanted to serve her princess for the rest of her life.
Besides, she had also seen the expression on Mrs. Tang Er's face just now. She knew that Mrs. Tang Er probably didn't like her, so why should she get close to her?
So, Yun Shu said calmly, "I'm sorry, Fourth Young Master Tang, thank you for liking me, but I don't like you."
Tang Wenle was expectantly waiting for Yunshu to say 'she likes him too' when he suddenly heard Yunshu say she didn't like him. Tang Wenle paused. Just as Yunshu turned to leave, he came to his senses and grabbed Yunshu with a hurt look on his face. "Why? Why don't you like me? What's wrong with me? If you tell me, I'll change. Isn't that okay?"
Yun Shu felt a little relieved when she heard this, but then she thought of Madam Tang's expression just now, and she gritted her teeth and said, "No, it's not you who's wrong, it's me. I'm just a servant girl, I have no status or background. If you marry me, I won't be able to help you, and instead people will laugh at you for marrying a maid, and look down on you. Do you agree to that?"
Hearing Yun Shu say this, Tang Wenle felt a little happy. It turned out that Yun Shu didn't really dislike him, but was worried that he would be looked down upon by others.
He was a little excited and said seriously, "What kind of person my wife is has nothing to do with others? As for the identity you mentioned, our Tang family does not need to rely on marriage to consolidate family interests."
Yun Shu found Tang Wenle so amused. Why didn't he understand? Even if he didn't rely on marriage to consolidate the family's status, his mother wouldn't let him marry a girl.
"Even if your wife has nothing to do with others, doesn't it have nothing to do with your mother? Does your mother agree with you marrying a girl?"
Tang Wenle was stunned by the question. He indeed had not mentioned it to his mother yet. However, he thought his mother would not object, right?
Seeing Tang Wenle like this, Yun Shu knew that Tang Wenle had not told his mother yet.
She shook off Tang Wenle's hand and said, "You should go and ask Mrs. Tang Er's opinion first." Then she walked out of the rockery.
Tang Wenle looked at Yun Shu's back as she walked away, and thought to himself: Just wait to become my wife, my mother will definitely agree.
After Yun Shu came out, Gu Lingyue and Yun Jin just returned. At this time, Yun Shu's expression had returned to normal.
She quickly walked to Gu Lingyue and called out, "Princess."
"Are you done?" Gu Lingyue asked with a smile, then looked behind the rockery.
Yun Shu thought about what Tang Wenle had just said and felt a little irritated, but she nodded gently and responded, "Yeah."
Yun Jin was a little worried when she saw her sister's unhappy expression.
She thought to herself that if he dared to bully Yun Shu, she would make him pay.
At this moment, Long Shang walked over from a distance and saw Gu Lingyue standing outside. He took a few quick steps and came to Gu Lingyue's side.
Seeing this, Yun Jin and Yun Shu saluted Long Shang and took two steps back to make room for him.
"Why are you standing here? Are you cold?" As he said that, Long Shang grabbed Gu Lingyue's hand and warmed her with his own hand.
"Not bad." Gu Lingyue smiled and said, "Have you eaten?"
"Yes." Long Shang grabbed Gu Lingyue's hand and walked towards the main hall, "I'll go back to the palace first."
Gu Lingyue understood that he came here after having dinner at home.
They stayed at Tang's house until after dinner in the evening before leaving.
At this time, snowflakes were floating in the sky and the night was dark. This year's winter seemed to come earlier than last year.
Gu Lingyue and Long Shang were riding in a carriage. Long Shang was afraid that Gu Lingyue would be cold, so he wrapped her tightly with a cloak and gave her a hand warmer. So even though the weather was a bit cold, Gu Lingyue in the carriage did not feel cold. The carriage slowly drove towards the palace.
When the carriage was almost at the gate of the palace, it was stopped by a man dressed as a secret guard.
Yun Hao recognized the person and stopped the carriage. He whispered to the carriage, "Master, the people of the Western Shu Emperor have stopped the carriage."
As soon as he finished speaking, the voice of the secret guard was heard, "Prince Jing, my master wants to see you."
Long Shang hesitated for a moment, then said calmly, "I understand. Go back and tell your master that I will go find him later."
He planned to send Gu Lingyue back first.
"We're already at the door. Besides, my mother, Rui'er and others are in the carriage behind. You don't have to send me in." Gu Lingyue said.
"It's okay, don't worry." Long Shang insisted on sending Gu Lingyue back home.
It was snowing outside and the road was slippery. He was afraid of an accident.
At this time, the secret guard who stopped the carriage had left, and Yun Hao continued to drive the carriage forward.
It was not until they arrived at the gate of the palace that Long Shang got out of the car, carried Gu Lingyue back to Zizhuxuan, and then instructed someone to light the charcoal fire before leaving.
At this time, the secret guard who was sent to monitor Dong Jinyu reported to Gu Lingyue what happened in the mansion today.
"Are you saying that Dong Jinyu asked her maid to go to Miss Yang's yard today?" Gu Lingyue asked with raised eyebrows.
"Yes."
Gu Lingyue thought for a moment and said, "Keep watching, don't alert the enemy."
The secret guard left as soon as he said that, and the room became warmer. Gu Lingyue felt a little sleepy at this time, so the Yunjin sisters helped Gu Lingyue to sleep. After they left, Yunjin asked Yunshu about what Tang Wenle was looking for her.
Yun Shu did not hide anything and told Yun Jin everything Tang Wenle said.
Yun Jin frowned and asked, "Do you like him?"
Yun Shu hesitated for a moment, then said nonchalantly, "It's not a question of whether I like him or not. It's that his mother will definitely not let him marry me."
Hearing Yun Shu say this, Yun Jin knew that her sister must also have feelings for Tang Wenle, but the difference in their status made her hesitate.
Yun Jin didn't know what to say at this moment, so she stretched out her arms, put her arm around Yun Shu's shoulders and patted him, "No matter what decision you make, I support you."
Yun Shu felt slightly comforted: Yes, she still has her sister and the princess! Why does she have to get married?
At this time, Tang Wenle was also in his mother's room telling Mrs. Tang Er that he was going to marry Yunshu.
"I don't agree." Mrs. Tang refused without thinking.
Tang Wenle didn't expect his mother to refuse. He asked doubtfully, "Haven't you always been looking forward to my marriage? Now that I'm telling you that I have someone I want to marry, why don't you agree?"
Madam Tang stared at him angrily, "Why don't you know? Although Yunshu is a good girl, she has no status or background. How can she be your helper in the future?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Wenle retorted, "What support does our Tang family need? Our Tang family is the Marquis of Zhenbei, with great military achievements, and Yue'er is the Princess of Jing. We don't need a marriage to consolidate our position."
"What do you know?" Madam Tang Er glared and angrily scolded: "Now your grandfather is in charge of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion, so you don't have to worry about anything, but what about the future?
A hundred years after your grandfather passes away, your uncle will be the master of the Zhenbei Marquisate. If the family splits up at that time, where will you go?
Tang Wenle was a little unhappy. He didn't expect his mother to think so much.
Although his father was gone, his uncle had always been very kind to them. He didn't believe that his uncle would drive them out of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion when the time came.
But now he knew that his mother would not listen to anything he said, so it seemed he could only ask his grandmother for help.
