I sat lazily on a small bamboo stool, leaning against the railing of the corridor, holding the book in my hands and quietly flipping through it.
Suddenly, I heard familiar footsteps behind me. Daddy's here?! I jumped up in surprise, tossed my book onto the small bamboo stool, and quickly turned around. I ran over to him, took his arm affectionately, and asked with a grin, "Why are you here so early, Daddy?" Since Daddy accepted me as his father two years ago, and after two more years of spending time together, my unintentional little girl actions towards him have become increasingly bold. Now, I'm even bold enough to brazenly and intimately link arms with him.
People really shouldn't be too favored. When I'm not favored, even the slightest hope can make me happy for half a day. But once I'm favored, I increasingly don't know when to stop. I can't help but wonder if this is how corrupt officials throughout history were cultivated?
"I came here today because I want to talk to you about something." Father let me take his arm and we stepped into the house.
When Qin'er saw my father arrive, she immediately served him two cups of Biluochun tea. After bringing over a few small plates of fruit, she bowed and withdrew.
I sat quietly on the wooden chair, blinking my eyes intently as I stared at my father sitting across the round table.
After taking a sip of tea, Father looked up and asked, "Did Shu'er see Chang Kongyu yesterday?"
I was taken aback. Although I didn't know how my father knew about this, I obediently nodded and replied, "Yes. I met him in the bamboo grove by the garden last night."
Father nodded and then asked, "What does Shu'er think of his appearance?"
Father's question was so strange! But I still answered honestly, "The first time I saw him, I thought he was so alluring, like a fox spirit." He had light, watery blue eyes; a high, delicate nose; rosy lips like a young girl's; and a face sculpted like a fox's. Even the way his clothes fluttered was exactly like the fox fairy of my imagination. That's why I blurted out, 'A fairy? A monster?' the moment I saw him. Now, looking back, I realize how ridiculous and vulgar I was!
"A fox spirit? Was Shu'er frightened by his appearance?" Although Baili Qingxiao had already heard from Chang Kongyu that Shu'er was not afraid of his appearance, he still couldn't put his mind at ease without asking her personally. After all, this was a major event in his daughter's life, and he couldn't let himself treat it carelessly.
"Scared? What?! Although he is incredibly handsome, we already have two... uh, cough cough—" I coughed twice, pretending to force the words "two incredibly handsome" back down into my stomach.
I cleared my throat and continued, "My brother's appearance is actually quite..." I pondered for a moment, wondering what adjective to use to describe a man. "...handsome, so my amazement at him was only at the first glance."
Ever since that rainy day two years ago, Father told me to stop calling my brother "Young Master" and just call him "Brother." I still clearly remember every feeling I had when Father said those words...
Baili Qing smiled slightly, clearly Shu'er had misunderstood him. But it made him realize that his Shu'er was not only not intimidated by Chang Kongyu's appearance, but in fact, she saw his appearance as 'handsome'!
Then, Father smiled gently and said, "Many people are so frightened by Chang Kong's appearance that their faces turn pale and their limbs go weak. Some even faint in front of him."
"They were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their limbs went weak; some even fainted in front of him?"? No way! I always thought that the aesthetic sense of ancient people was not much different from that of modern people. I never imagined that the taste of ancient people was so different!
Seeing her adorable, incredulous expression, Baili Qing smiled and affectionately reached out to pinch her little nose, saying, "Shu'er's taste is truly extraordinary."
My father's pinch snapped me out of my daze, and I asked earnestly, "Why did you bring up Chang Kongyu with me today, Father?" My father had been talking to me about Chang Kongyu for so long; if he didn't have some purpose, why would he bother to gossip about his friend?
Father smiled at me, praised me for being clever, and then told me the whole story...
After my father finished speaking, I lowered my eyes and pondered.
After a short while, I said, "Is it because I'm not afraid of his appearance that he wants to marry me? Then... if another woman comes along who isn't afraid of him, will he marry her too?"
Father looked up at me and said with a smile, "I'm afraid there's no woman in this world who wouldn't be afraid of him."
I picked up an apple from the fruit plate, took a bite, and said, "Things in this world are constantly changing, and you can never be sure what will happen." Just like when I thought I could only silently watch my father, he walked towards me on his own.
"Hmm, what Shu'er said makes some sense." They always believed that no woman in the world could be unafraid of Chang Kong's appearance, and they would often urge him to get married as soon as possible and complete the task of carrying on the family line.
"Shu'er, let me think about this for a few days before giving Father an answer. If you don't like this marriage, just tell Father. Father isn't forcing you to marry him!"
I choked with emotion and said, "Thank you, Father!" In feudal society, it was very rare for a father to say such things to his daughter.
I placed the half-eaten apple in the blue-and-white porcelain bowl, sat up straight, and smiled at my father, "Father, I agree to this marriage." A daughter always has to get married, and besides, Chang Kongyu has been famous throughout the land since he was fifteen, a true prodigy. Yet, at 28, he is still unmarried. In that world, being unmarried at 28 is quite normal, but this timeline is still ancient, where early marriage is common. His adherence to his principles, only marrying women who are not afraid of his appearance, is truly remarkable.
Then I overheard my father casually mention that he also had a fondness for women, which suited me well.
Besides, most women are afraid of his appearance, so he definitely won't keep a concubine or anything like that. That would make my life much simpler.
Lastly, Chang Kongyu is quite good-looking. At least when we get married and have sex, I won't feel disgusted.
Baili Qingxiao was once again astonished by her 'boldness'. Other girls, when faced with such a situation, would be shy and dare not speak to their fathers directly, regardless of whether they were willing or not. But his Shu'er was...
He then smiled gently, relieved. His Shu'er had always been an extraordinary girl. He had known this for a long time, so why would he look at her with worldly eyes today?

My brother pushed the door open with a bang, and I jumped up from my chair in fright!
My brother stormed in, sat down on the wooden chair next to the round table, and I straightened up, observing his expression. I lowered my head, closed my eyes, and quietly awaited his raging fury.
But more than a cup of tea's time had passed, and my brother still hadn't made any further moves. Anxious and uneasy, I slightly raised my head and glanced at him sideways. I saw that his entire body was trembling with rage, and his handsome, almost bewitching face was now deathly pale!
I tried calling out softly, "Brother?"
But the only response I got was the sound of my brother slamming his fist on the table. With a loud "bang!", a long, thin crack suddenly appeared on the glossy, vermilion tabletop...
My heart was pounding. Had my brother gotten himself into a rage today?
The older brother roared furiously, "Tell me! Why did you agree to let him marry into such a remote and godforsaken place?"
My body trembled from my brother's furious roar, my eyes instantly welled up with tears, I pouted aggrievedly, lowered my head and played with my fingers, remaining silent...
Instead of showing any pity, the brother shouted even louder, "There are so many noble young men in the capital, what kind of husband can't you have? Why do you have to marry someone so far away!" He knew that his sister was going to get married when she grew up, so he had been working hard to strengthen his own power since she was a child, hoping that Shu'er would have a powerful family to rely on after she got married!
He thought that if she got married, she would marry someone from nearby, so he could visit her often. He thought he would be there for her when she felt wronged!
She clearly knew his feelings for her, but what did she do? She agreed to marry that person and go to a faraway place!
He didn't know when they would be able to see each other again after she married into such a faraway place!
After she gets married, he will never be able to see her every day again...
How could he possibly bear this?
What if she suffers mistreatment in her husband's family in the future?
What if she is bullied by her husband's family in the future?
What should she do when she's all alone?
What should he do if he can never see her again?
"Raise your head and answer me!! If you don't give me a convincing reason today, I'll go ask my father to annul the engagement!" He had been shouting so loudly that his voice was now hoarse...
I mustered my courage, looked up at my brother, and asked, "Brother, do you want me to be happy?"
"Of course, brother wants Shu'er to be happy. But what kind of happiness can you expect when you marry someone so far away?" Without her family by her side to take care of her at all times, can his lazy and silly sister take good care of herself?
My ears were ringing from my brother's roar again. But now I didn't dare rub them...
I pouted again, feeling wronged, and said, "I understand your good intentions, brother. You've always hoped I could marry someone from the capital, so I'd have a powerful family to back me up and wouldn't be afraid of my future husband's family bullying me..." I paused, moistened my dry lips with saliva, and continued, "But, brother, you've forgotten that men usually have multiple wives and concubines. Even you... you already have one wife, three concubines, and four maids. And who knows how many more you'll want in the future!" I secretly glanced at my brother, only to see that his chest was no longer heaving as much as before. But his handsome face was even more gloomy.
I swallowed hard and forced myself to continue, "...Even if my future husband's family won't make things difficult for me because of my family, he'll inevitably have multiple wives and concubines. The troubles of a large family will gradually increase with the number of members. Shu'er is used to being lazy at home, so she'll inevitably find it hard to handle those things!"
However, if I were to marry Chang Kongyu, the situation would be different.
One reason is that Chang Kongyu is not a womanizer. This suits my desire for a simple life.
The second reason is that my father has worked with him for many years and knows him well. If he were an unreliable person, my father would probably have rejected him outright. The fact that my father came to ask me if I was willing to marry him means that he has approved of him.
The third reason is that he had already achieved fame and success at the age of fifteen and had long been exposed to the temptations of worldly fame and fortune. A man who follows this woman for life will at least not be discouraged by her unsuccessful career or official position.
I know that my brother is extremely reluctant to let me go so far away from my marriage!
...But marriage is a lifelong commitment, and I can only choose to marry the one who is most beneficial to me. So I beg you, brother, to grant my request..."
"Enough!" Before I could finish speaking, my brother interrupted me by flipping over the round table. He gritted his teeth and growled, "Give in? You think I'm some kind of villain trying to break up a pair of star-crossed lovers? Haha! What a heartless brat! You've got a lover and you've abandoned your brother who's always cared about you! Fine! Since this is what you asked for, then I'm not going to interfere in your affairs anymore!"
"Brother—" I tried to grab my brother, but I only managed to catch a gust of wind as his clothes rippled by...
"Brother, brother, brother..." I ran to the door to call for my brother, but the yard was empty, filled with flowers, plants, and tall trees. My brother's tall figure was nowhere to be seen.
It seems my brother is really angry this time...
