Double Life: The Long Road to Chasing Your Wife

"If Mr. Su doesn't mind, you can come with me. Although my uncle is a casual official and a sixth-grade Chaoyi Lang, he will also take in some retainers. If you are willing, I will take you to see my uncle."

"Cousin, I'm afraid it's not good for you to bring a stranger back like this!"

Su Yi was originally excited. His money had been stolen and he had nowhere to go. Hearing what Shi Ying said, plus Lin Shu had just rescued him, plus he was a dignified seven-foot man, he also had the backbone. , it is not good to continue to trouble Lin Shu.

"Thank you very much, Miss. I don't know your name or where you live. When Su becomes rich in the future, I will definitely return the five taels of silver. Also, Miss, how did you know that my surname is Su?"

Shi Ying gave Su Yi a roll of her eyes without hesitation.

"Didn't you hear the person next to you just now calling you Mr. Su?"

"I'm just stupid."

Lin Shu knew that scholars were high-spirited and easily unwilling to accept help from others, so she did not answer Su Yi's question and turned her attention to Su Yi's sister.

Lin Shu gently wiped Su Yuanyuan's face with her own handkerchief.

"Does it hurt, little sister?"

"Brother protected Yuanyuan very well. Yuanyuan was not hit by the bad guys, so Yuanyuan didn't feel any pain. But my brother is bleeding. Sister, can you wipe it for me?"

Su Yi's face turned red with embarrassment.

"Miss, don't listen to my little sister's nonsense. I have nothing to do. Who are you? Su Yi can pay off her debts in the future."

"Since Mr. Su wants to repay his debt, you might as well come back with me. I will lend Mr. Su some more money and use it as Mr. Su's start-up capital. When Mr. Su becomes prosperous in the future, I can pay him back double, how about that?"

Su Yi was indeed very moved. He believed that he would be able to return the favor and would no longer refuse.

"In that case, thank you very much, Miss. When Su Yi becomes rich in the future, I will definitely pay back ten times."

So Su Yi followed Lin Shu and Shi Ying to Shi Mansion with Su Yuanyuan in his arms.

After hearing Lin Shu's explanation, Shi Jingke asked Mrs. Shi to arrange for Su Yi to live with other guests.

As long as one of these retainers passes the exam, the Shi family's investment will be successful and they will help each other in the officialdom.

In fact, every major family has its retainers, but the more talented people are snatched away by nobles and nobles.

Disciples like the Shi family can, at most, become a fifth-rank official after passing the exam. Even then, the Shi family will have one more helper in the court.

Su Yi lived in Shi's house for two months and accidentally found out that Mrs. Shi was visiting Lin Shuxiang's husband's house.

After hearing the news, Su Yi was absent-minded all day.

Su Yi used Su Yuanyuan to pretend to meet Lin Shu by chance while Lin Shu was out.

"Ms. Lin, what a coincidence, you are here too!"

Lin Shu smiled, but before she could answer, Shi Ying exposed Su Yi.

"I don't think it's a coincidence! Your little sister runs into my cousin's yard every day, and my cousin goes out, don't you know?"

Seeing being exposed by Shi Ying, Su Yi scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Ying'er, don't be rude. Mr. Su must have something to do with me. You go ahead and wait for me. I'll go find you later."

Shi Ying muttered and said reluctantly:

"Cousin, I think Su Yi has bad intentions. First he refused your help, and finally he followed you back. He is just a fake person. Don't be fooled by Su Yi's appearance."

Lin Shu also didn't expect Shi Ying to say bad things about Su Yi in front of Su Yi.

"Ying'er, Mr. Su is not as bad as you think. You go first."

When Shi Ying walked away, Lin Shu looked at Su Yi guiltily.

"Sorry, Mr. Su, Ying'er is ignorant, don't mind."

"Ms. Shi is right. It's Su's fault. It's really rude to come to Miss Lin like this. It's just that Su has some questions to ask Miss Lin. Is Mrs. Shi going on a blind date for you recently?"

"Well, my aunt is helping me visit my husband's family recently."

Lin Shu wondered why Su Yi cared about these things.

"I heard that several disciples of the Shi family have met each other. Is this true?"

"I've really been seeing each other lately."

"What do Miss Lin think of Su?" Su Yi went straight to the topic without being verbose.

"Ah!" Lin Shu didn't react.

"Su Yi admires Miss Lin. I wonder if I can give her a chance."

"me…"

This was the first time Lin Shu accepted someone's confession, and she was so nervous that she didn't know how to express it.

I originally wanted to find an honest and loyal person to live out my life in a down-to-earth manner, but I never expected that such a dramatic scene would happen.

"You just say whether you are willing to marry me. If you are willing, just nod and leave the rest to me."

"My uncle and aunt want to recruit a son-in-law for me, are you willing too?"

Lin Shu knew Su Yi's ability, so when Mrs. Shi asked Lin Shu, she didn't include Su Yi at all. How could the future third-rank Dali Temple minister become someone else's son-in-law? This would be a stain on his life. Lin Shu didn't want to drag Su Yi down.

Besides, I was the wife of a Hou family in my previous life. I don't want to be rich and powerful, I just want to live out my life in peace.

"Su is also fatherless and doesn't care about this. It's just that I have a young sister who needs the help of my future wife to take care of her. I'm lucky that Miss Lin doesn't dislike me. How can I care about whether I'm my son-in-law?"

Looking at Su Yi's face, which was even more beautiful than Xiao Yan's, Lin Shu's heart beat faster and her face became redder and redder.

"Can you allow me to think about it?"

Su Yi also knew that he was too impatient and scared Lin Shu.

Su Yi folded his hands into fists and apologized.

"Ms. Lin, I'm sorry, I scared you because of my recklessness."

"No, it's just that I can't make the decision on my own. I need to discuss it with my uncle and aunt. I'll give you an answer later."

Then Lin Shu returned the greeting politely and walked in the direction of Shi Ying.

"Cousin, why are you blushing? Did that boy Su Yi bully you?"

As she said this, Shi Ying rolled up her sleeves and prepared to settle the score with Su Yi.

"Ying'er, pull down your sleeves quickly. Mr. Su just chatted with me and didn't bully me."

After hearing what Lin Shu said, Shi Ying put down her sleeves.

"Okay then! Cousin, no matter if you are bullied now or in the future, just tell me and I will avenge you."

Lin Shu tidied the broken hair in front of Shi Ying.

"With a little naughty guy like you standing by my side, who would dare to bully me?"

After the sisters finished speaking, Lin Shu glanced behind her and found that Su Yi had not left, but was smiling at her from a distance.

Shi Ying was not happy anymore.

"Hey, that boy Su Yi actually smiled maliciously at you, cousin, and beat him until I couldn't see you."

Shi Ying was so angry that she couldn't stand the way Su Yi looked at her cousin, like a pig staring at her cabbage at any time.

Lin Shu quickly grabbed Shi Ying.

"Little ancestor, please stop making trouble. Not long after it stopped, why did you start making trouble again? Be careful if you go back and be punished by your uncle and aunt."

Shi Ying reluctantly retracted her fist.

The two sisters went shopping together hand in hand.

Little did they know, someone upstairs had a panoramic view of their scene.

"My lord, what are you looking at?"

King Xian stood on the window sill with his hands behind his back.

"Go down and check out the girl named Ying'er. Which family is she from?"
