Chapter 173: Chapter 174 Agree to This Marriage Proposal
Pei Huaian silently looked at Ah Mo. This blockhead couldn’t even see such a small matter.
The ignored Ah Mo scratched his head, very puzzled as he watched the two of them walk away. Just moments ago, the atmosphere had been so warm—how had it instantly turned so fiery?
In the days Shao He had been resting, without the disturbance of Chu Yu, without any unwanted visitors, and aside from occasionally having some people hovering in front of her, her days had been quite peaceful overall.
The next day, Yan Ze came to Shao He’s courtyard with compensation in the form of silver notes.
Surprised to see the man who claimed to be busy every day, she exclaimed in astonishment as she saw him practicing walking, “Your, your leg is healed?”
“Yes.” Pei Huaian didn’t have time to entertain him, focusing on moving forward step by step.
Yan Ze approached Shao He, pointing to the person nearby he asked, “He can walk now?”
“Haven’t you just seen it yourself?” Shao He said teasingly, what could be more trustworthy than one’s own eyes?
Yan Ze’s excited mood was beyond words, he hadn’t expected to see the day he could stand again, how wonderful!
In his excitement, his hand landed on Shao He’s shoulder without him realizing it. Pei Huaian just happened to see their intimate gesture, frowning deeply.
Shao He felt the intense gaze from behind her, and turned around. The other person had already shifted his gaze, continuing to walk slowly forward.
Yan Ze noticed that Pei Huaian was unhappy, immediately restrained his smile, and whispered, “What’s wrong with him? Is he angry?”
Shao He rolled her eyes at him, pulled him closer, and whispered in his ear, “Why have you suddenly come over?”
It was then that Yan Ze remembered his main purpose, “I came to tell you that Sun Shaoyuan will be locked up for several months at least, and about the compensation, there’s a part for you and a part for Anji Hall.”
Shao He looked at the silver note in surprise, pointing at herself, “Are you sure you’ve got this right? There’s also compensation for me?”
“Of course, I just went to Anji Hall. Hearing you were resting at home, I brought Sun Shaoyuan’s compensation to you on my way here,” Yan Ze said, taking the silver note out from his bosom and handing it over.
Shao He knew Sun Shaoyuan would definitely make compensation, but she hadn’t expected to have a part in it, especially since she only smashed the medical hall and had not suffered any personal injury. In fact, she had kicked Sun Shaoyuan.
“This compensation is for damaging your reputation. Why refuse it? It is rightfully owed to you,” Pei Huaian, appearing from nowhere, said to the hesitant person.
Convinced by his reasoning, Shao He accepted the silver note, “Thank you, Master Yan.”
Although she knew Yan Ze was helping her on behalf of Pei Huaian, proper etiquette was still necessary.
Yan Ze smiled slightly, just as he was about to turn to leave, he suddenly remembered something mentioned at home today.
He stopped and asked, “I heard that you cured Princess Yunyao’s face. Do you know what kind of person she is?”
Hearing him ask about Xu Han, Shao He remembered what Jhiang Yijia had mentioned last time, about Princess Huimin intending Xu Han to marry Yan Ze.
Seeing Shao He spacing out, Yan Ze waved his hand in front of her eyes, “Is there a problem? Or do you find this question difficult to answer?”
“No, it’s just that I don’t feel qualified to judge others. I can only say that Princess Yunyao is gentle and down-to-earth, without the arrogance of a princess,” Shao He said, sharing her observations.
Yan Ze nodded his head upon hearing this, “Then I can accept this marriage proposal.”
“You and Princess Yunyao have only seen each other from afar at a banquet. Are you sure you want to accept this marriage proposal? Marriage is not a trivial matter, it is a major event in life, especially since the person you would marry is a Commandery Princess, making it impossible to withdraw later,” Pei Huaian, placing a hand on his shoulder, asked seriously.
Yan Ze turned with a smile, “Who I marry is all the same, after all, one must marry eventually, right?”
Shao He hadn’t expected Yan Ze to say this, and couldn’t help but sigh softly, “Master Yan really intends to marry Princess Yunyao? But…”
Pei Huaian interrupted Shao He sternly, “Since Yan Ze has said this, he must have made thorough preparations. Just be at ease, besides, marriage is not something to be trifled with. His decision signifies his resolution.”

As Yan Ze turned to leave, Shao He watched his retreating figure and sighed, “They have only seen each other from a distance, and yet they rashly decide to be engaged.”
“They are well-matched in social status, and getting married shouldn’t be a problem.”
Yan Ze’s status was indeed a good match for Princess Yunyao, and both of them were considered good-looking.
Shao He withdrew her gaze to settle on Pei Huaian, reflecting on his earlier words, “A marriage requires equally matched social status, but I feel judging without knowing one’s character is too rash. Men can take concubines, but women can only waste their lives.”
Pei Huaian was startled by her idea; it was the first time anyone had raised such a question.
It seemed as if women were naturally expected to endure submissively and stay decorously at home, where being seen by men was considered a great insult. Yet, no one had ever asked women if they were willing.
“So, how do you think one should get married?” Pei Huaian’s curiosity about Shao He in front of him grew, especially after hearing her words, finding them surprising yet reasonable.
Shao He looked at him very seriously and considered for a moment, “At least there should be mutual understanding, and after marriage, it should just be the husband and wife, without interference from the in-laws, and certainly no messy concubines involved.”
The love she aspired to was of two people supporting each other, without schemes, without arguments, and certainly without the interference of a third party.
