Chapter 38 I Don't Want You to Marry Her
With light and cheerful steps, Bai Ruxue ran down from Sheshan Mountain and returned to the village.

As soon as Bai Ruxue entered the village, a group of middle-aged women surrounded her.

"Ru Xue, congratulations! Your Xiao Mo passed the imperial examination!"

"Ruxue, you will be the wife of a scholar from now on."

"When Xiao Mo becomes a high-ranking official in the future, don't let him forget about us, his relatives and friends."

The older women chatted amongst themselves.

Bai Ruxue's eyes lit up, and she asked happily, "Did Xiao Mo really pass the exam?"

"Of course! Xiao Mo not only passed the exam, but he also became the top scholar! He was number one, and even the county magistrate came."

"Ru Xue, you didn't see how polite the magistrate was to Xiao Mo. Usually, only others are this polite to the magistrate."

"Brother Mo is truly a reincarnation of the God of Literature!"

Hearing her relatives praising Xiao Mo, Bai Ruxue felt very happy.

Bai Ruxue didn't know what passing the imperial examination meant.

But Bai Ruxue knew that Xiao Mo had succeeded in what he wanted to do, and he would be very happy.

Xiao Mo's happiness made me happy too.

Just as Bai Ruxue was about to run home to cook him a nice meal to celebrate, Widow Wang from the north of the village saw Bai Ruxue and hurriedly ran over:

"Ru Xue, something terrible has happened! The magistrate is arranging a marriage for Xiao Mo, wanting to marry his daughter to him."

"Huh?" All the aunts and uncles were stunned at the same time.

Aunt Chen was the first to react, and said to Widow Wang, "What nonsense are you talking about? Where did you hear this rumor?"

"It's not a rumor at all!" Widow Wang slapped her thigh. "I just happened to hear it when I passed by Mo Ge'er's courtyard!"

"This"

"Ru Xue, don't worry, maybe Wang Mei just misheard."

"That's right, Ruxue. You take such good care of Xiao Mo, he will definitely not let you down."

Everyone quickly comforted Bai Ruxue.

Everyone could see how Bai Ruxue took care of Xiao Mo.

"That's true, but she's the county magistrate's daughter after all. If I were Brother Mo..." Just then, a young woman muttered to herself.

But she was glared at by others halfway through her sentence.

"Aunt Chen, Aunt Wang, I...I'm fine," Bai Ruxue smiled slightly. "Xiao Mo passed the imperial examination, I should be happy. I'll go cook for him to celebrate."

Bai Ruxue smiled slightly at everyone and then stepped forward.

Looking at the girl's somewhat dejected figure, everyone knew that Bai Ruxue couldn't possibly be alright.

But what can be done about this?

Ru Xue was indeed beautiful, but she was still just an ordinary woman.

No man could possibly refuse the magistrate's daughter.

Bai Ruxue was walking home.

She didn't even know what kind of feelings she had.

My mind just feels very confused.

She naturally knew what marriage meant.

Marriage means that a man and a woman are together and never separate.

"If Xiao Mo marries another woman, should I leave him?"

Will Xiao Mo agree to that county magistrate's request?

"Will Xiao Mo leave me?"

The more Bai Ruxue thought about it, the more confused she became.

Just as Bai Ruxue was about to walk into the courtyard, she saw Xiao Mo saying goodbye to a man dressed in official robes.

Bai Ruxue quickly hid behind a rock.

Seeing the two chatting so happily, Bai Ruxue's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that Xiao Mo has already agreed to marry his daughter?
After the magistrate left, Bai Ruxue slowly stood up and returned to the courtyard.

"Ru Xue, you're back."

"Yes." "I have good news for you, I passed the imperial examination."

"Hmm."

"Ru Xue, what's wrong? What happened?" Xiao Mo asked when he saw Bai Ru Xue keeping her head down.

"No, I'm fine. I'll go cook for you and celebrate properly today." Bai Ruxue shook her head and ran into the kitchen.

About half an hour later, Bai Ruxue came out carrying the food.

Xiao Mo looked at the mouthwatering chicken, which looked and smelled delicious, and couldn't wait to take a bite. As a result, he almost died from the saltiness.

"Xiao Mo, what's wrong?" Bai Ruxue quickly poured Xiao Mo a glass of water.

"Try it yourself." Xiao Mo picked up a piece for her.

Bai Ruxue took a bite, and her face instantly turned pale.

"Bah bah bah!"

Bai Ruxue quickly spat out the chicken.

"Um... I accidentally put in too much salt. Xiao Mo, have this." Bai Ruxue picked up a piece of green vegetable for Xiao Mo.

Xiao Mo took a bite of the greens, his expression complicated: "Ru Xue, did you not put salt in your greens?"

"Oh? Then try this one." Bai Ruxue added a piece of rabbit meat.

"This rabbit meat is way too sour!" Xiao Mo couldn't take it anymore. "How much vinegar did you put in?"

"I'll go redo it for you." Bai Ruxue ran to the kitchen again.

The second meal Bai Ruxue cooked was alright.

However, when Bai Ruxue ate, she seemed lost in thought, shoveling rice into her mouth bit by bit, forgetting to pick up any other dishes.

While washing the dishes, Bai Ruxue broke two plates.
When hanging clothes to dry, Bai Ruxue would pick them up and place them on the clothesline, then take them down from the clothesline and put them in a basin.

so repeatedly.

While cleaning the yard, she swept one spot over and over again.
Xiao Mo was certain that she had something on her mind.

As night fell, after dinner, Bai Ruxue didn't go back to her room to sleep. Instead, she sat in the courtyard, looking up at the stars.

Xiao Mo walked out of the room, picked up a book, and gently patted Bai Ruxue's head.

Bai Ruxue was startled, and gave Xiao Mo a coquettish glare with her peach blossom eyes: "You scared me to death! What are you doing?"

"I was just asking you what's wrong. You've been looking so listless all day. Tell me, what happened?" Xiao Mo asked, feigning seriousness.

"I...I didn't." Bai Ruxue turned her head away.

"Really not?"

"Really not!"

"Never mind if you don't have me, sigh," Xiao Mo sighed. "I thought I was very important to you, that you would tell me everything. It seems I was just being presumptuous."

Just as Xiao Mo turned away in disappointment to go back to his room, Bai Ruxue gently pinched the hem of Xiao Mo's clothes.

The woman lowered her head and whispered, "No...it's not like that."

"Then why didn't you tell me?"

"I...I..." Bai Ruxue hesitated, almost burying her head in her chest.

Xiao Mo wasn't in a hurry; he simply waited for her answer.

"Xiao Mo." The girl seemed to have mustered all her courage, raised her head, and asked nervously, "The magistrate wants to marry his daughter to you, is that right?"

"How did you know?" Xiao Mo was taken aback.

"I...I heard about it!" Bai Ruxue's eyes flickered. "Are you going to marry her?"

"Does Miss Bai think I should marry her?"

Bai Ruxue lowered her head again and fell silent, her small hands gently rubbing the hem of his clothes.

After a long silence, the woman's voice was as soft as an evening breeze: "I...I don't want you to marry her."

"fool."

Xiao Mo pinched the woman's fair and tender face.

"Then I will not marry her."
