Chapter 569: Is there toast in Daxia?
Xia Wanniang told her the same story: "He died of illness. He fell ill on the third day after their marriage. They didn't even consummate their marriage."
"How could this happen? He must be very sad." Yu Wanwan felt a little sorry for Xu Li.
Xia Wanniang: "Mr. Xu likes sweets and sour things. Although he seems heartless, he is actually very sentimental."
She paused and said, "To put it simply, he is a fool."
Yu Wanwan opened her mouth, not knowing whether to refute or not: "It's different from what I know. I see that Ali is responsible and accountable. He goes to the farmland to help the people. He is a good official."
Xu Li had already arrived outside the door when the two were talking. Instead of going in, he eavesdropped outside in an unkind manner.
He didn't know whether he liked Yu Wanwan or not. She was different from all the girls he knew. She was warm and cheerful, and even said loudly that she liked him regardless of anything else.
Every time this happened, his heart would feel a little flustered. This feeling was strange yet real.
Xia Wanniang chatted with her a lot again, and they even felt a sense of mutual understanding.
Yu Wanwan was no longer so repulsive to her. She leaned over the table and looked at Xia Wanniang: "Are these all your and your husband's children?"
Xia Wanniang: "One of them is Rouyue's child, but I also treat her as my own child. The other children are mine and my husband's."
"That's great. Unlike my father, who said that he loved my mother the most, he accepted all the children born to his concubines." Yu Wanwan was very disgusted.
Xia Wanniang approached Yu Wanwan and whispered, "Mr. Xu's family has a very good family tradition. They allow men to take concubines after they are 40 and have no children. So you should do your best."
Yu Wanwan's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Xia Wanniang nodded: "If you want to learn how to cook, you can go to my mother. My mother is a good cook, and Master Xu also likes the food she cooks."
Yu Wanwan sat up straight and looked at her: "Sister, can I stay at your house?"
Xia Wanniang: "Sure, if you have nowhere to go, you can stay here forever."
"That's great. I used to stay in inns and it was so boring." Yu Wanwan complained.
Xia Wanniang: "You drank a lot of wine before, sleep for a while, I will call you for dinner later."
Yu Wanwan nodded. She still felt dizzy and wanted to sleep for a while.
Xia Wanniang came out of the room and closed the door for her, then saw Xu Li standing outside the yard, as if waiting for her.
She walked to Xu Li's side and asked, "Master Xu, are you waiting for me?"
Xu Li nodded: "Can we chat for a while?"
Xia Wanniang took him to the study and took a cup of hot cocoa from the space for Xu Li.
Xu Li took the hot cocoa, felt that the temperature was just right, poked open the paper with a straw and took a big sip, warming himself up completely.
Xia Wanniang has now weaned the two little ones. She took out the tea set and made herself a cup of tea, waiting for Xu Li to speak first.
Xu Li put down the hot cocoa in his hand: "I don't want to delay her."
Xia Wanniang looked at Xu Li: "You haven't let it go yet?"
Xu Li shook his head: "No, I think you know her identity."
Speaking of this, Xia Wanniang became curious: "Is there toast in Daxia?"
Xu Li shook his head: "They all live in remote places, but the chieftains there can be said to be almost the same as the emperor of Daxia."
"Wow! Mr. Xu and the princess really have a connection!" Xia Wanniang looked at him with an exaggerated expression.
Xu Li rolled his eyes: "Now that you know, you should know that I can't marry her."
"Why can't I marry him?" Xia Wanniang tilted her head and looked at him.
Xu Li: "You also said she is a princess. Things will be very troublesome from now on."
Xia Wanniang: "I definitely won't be that troublesome. If you marry her, it will help expand the territory of Daxia."
Xu Li had a question mark on his face: "What logic?"
"Think about it, her dowry is located on a hill near the northwest." Xia Wanniang looked at him with a smile.
Xu Li seemed to come to his senses: "No, no, I can't sacrifice my happiness for these ten mountains."
Xia Wanniang rolled her eyes and said, "Xu Li, ask your conscience, are you really not attracted to this girl? Put aside all her identities and backgrounds, and think about it yourself."
