Chapter 273: 273. Chapter 273 Qiao Sheng's question was really direct

273. Chapter 273 Qiao Sheng's question was really direct.

Hearing this, Shi Lin gently pinched Qiao Sheng's waist and said, "It's fine if your memory is bad; I'll help you remember from now on…"

Qiao Sheng: "……"

I can't afford to offend them, I can't afford to offend them, I simply can't afford to offend them!

Qiao Sheng and Shi Lin's relationship was developing well, and over here Ji Fan and Qiao Lihua were also getting along quite nicely.

Qiao Hushui and the others, seeing this, decided to let them get married.

Then.

On the fifteenth day of the eighth month, Qiao Hushui and the others took advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival to invite Ji Fan's family over for a meal and began discussing Ji Fan and Qiao Lihua's marriage.

Ji Xue also came today.

After the meal, hearing Qiao Hushui mention his older brother's marriage to Qiao Lihua, Ji Xue's heart gave a jolt—hadn't they said they would get married in a few days? How little time has passed?

If they get married, what will happen to You Caidie?

Just then.

Ji Fan's voice rang out: "Uncle Hushui, I have no objections; I'll follow whatever you decide—anytime for the marriage is fine."

"I've been looking forward to Lihua joining the family…"

Tian Cuifen said with a smiling face.

What's so good about Qiao Lihua that they all like her so much!

Ji Xue felt very uncomfortable inside.

She said in a moderate tone: "Older brother, you're going to take the imperial exam next year—are you sure you want to get married now? Aren't you worried that getting married now will affect your exam?"

Seeing her say that.

Qiao Hushui and the others' expressions froze.

Qiao Sheng raised her eyebrows slightly—this girl seems not to like her own younger sister very much!

That's right.

She is also here today.

Not only is she here.

Xiao Shitou and the others are also here.

Shi Ren spoke up: "As far as I know, there are plenty of people who got married before the imperial exam in our country—how would it affect anything?"

Busybody!

Ji Xue opened her mouth to retort Shi Ren: "You little kid, what do you know?!"

"You're not that much older than me."

Shi Ren opened his lips to speak.

The words on Ji Xue's lips were about to blurt out.

Ji Fan spoke.

"Little sister, don't talk nonsense; I know you're concerned about my career, but getting married isn't like you think—it won't affect the exam. I've been unlucky for so many years; I don't even know what next year will be like."

"Lihua doesn't dislike me, and her family doesn't dislike me either—how could I make her wait longer?"

"I like her, and I want to bring her home as my wife right now."

Tian Cuifen also said about Ji Xue: "Exactly, little Xue, don't talk nonsense!"

Qiao Sheng figured it out—Ji Fan and Tian Cuifen both quite liked their younger sister, but Ji Xue didn't like their younger sister.

She turned her gaze to Ji Xue and said: "Ji Xue, are you truly worried that getting married now will affect your brother's exam, or do you simply dislike my younger sister and not want her to be your sister-in-law?"

Qiao Sheng's question was really direct.

Ji Xue froze on the spot; she really hadn't expected Qiao Sheng to ask her that.

"I…"

Qiao Sheng asked her: "Why can't you get it out? You were just able to speak fine—if you have something to say, just say it directly; I and my family aren't the type to beat around the bush."

Qiao Lihua also wanted to know if that was what Qiao Sheng was asking.

But her courage simply wasn't as big as Qiao Sheng's, so she didn't dare to ask.

Now that Qiao Sheng had helped ask it out, she just sat to the side and listened.

"I just……"

Ji Xue said only a few words.

Tian Cuifen interrupted her: "Little Xue, speak properly, don't talk nonsense…"

I really don't know what to say about Ji Fan's mother.

Qiao Sheng got straight to the point: "Aunt Tian, I know what you're worried about—you really don't need to worry. My younger sister's husband-to-be is your son, not your daughter. If your daughter truly doesn't like my younger sister, it's fine; they can just live in town later."
