[BL]The Big Landlord

Chapter 27 - Want to Marry Him

Chapter 27 - Want to Marry Him

After returning to the courtyard that they rented, neither master nor servant spoke.

An Zi Ran shut himself in the study and did not go out. He was thinking about the conversation with Fu Wu Tian. He was certain that he would not allow An Yu Zhi to marry into the Fu family as a concubine.

In general, the position of a concubine was not high. After marrying, a concubine basically could not leave the house. And they could not attend a lot of events, such as banquets hosted by the imperial family or other influential people. Essentially, they received the title of a wife, but not much benefits.

Although his original motive was to look for a backer for the An family, he was not cold-blooded enough to exchange his sister's lifetime of happiness for the An family's prosperity. Since she was now his family, he was more or less responsible for her.

"Knock knock!"

[T/N: Yes, the sound effect was in quotations in the raw.]

The door of the study was being knocked on. Steward Su pushed the door open and entered.

An Zi Ran looked over. "What happened?"

Steward Su said helplessly, "Young Master, the Young Miss said she has something to say to you. She is just outside in the yard."

There was no need to ask, they all knew what An Yu Zhi wanted to talk about.

An Zi Ran was silent for a moment. "Let her come in."

Steward Su sighed and went out to call her in. Not long after, An Yu Zhi's figure appeared in the entrance to the study. Softly she called out, "Brother." An Zi Ran let her in.

"You wanted to know the Fu family's answer?" An Zi Ran took a look at the restless An Yu Zhi. After hearing his words, her small face reddened, just like a red peach. She looked tender and particularly good looking. Indeed, a beautiful child. But he was not happy in his heart.

An Yu Zhi was blushing. It was really hard to tell her the answer. A girl like her running over to inquire about such matters, she must be feeling every embarrassed. If she said anymore he would not be able to answer her anymore.

An Zi Ran looked calm, as if he did not notice her distress, and then said, "Do you really want to marry into the Fu palace?"

"Brother!" An Yu Zhi's pretty face burned even brighter. It seemed that her elder brother was very straightforward. Her little face was so bashful that if one were to pinch it, water would come out*. But there was a hint of happiness in her eyes.

[*T/N: No, I don't understand this description either, but she's essentially really embarrassed.]

"Tell me the answer." An Zi Ran saw her response and knew what her answer would be, but he still wanted to hear it from her lips.

An Yu Zhi stomped her foot. Her little face was all pinched together. She saw that her brother was indifferent. She felt ashamed for a while, and finally said in a tiny inaudible voice, "Yes... I... I want to marry him..."

With an expressionless face, An Zi Ran said, "Even if he could only give you the title of a concubine?"

An Yu Zhi stood in a daze.

"I talked to him already, and he said he could only name you his concubine. Even if it's like this, you're still willing?" An Zi Ran ignored her sudden pale face. Some things must be put out in the open before it could be solved.

An Yu Zhi's face was pale and white. She was not a woman without a brain. The gap between a wang fei and a concubine wasn't just the normal distance (between a main wife and concubine). Once she became a concubine it was almost impossible for her to rise from concubine to wife status*. Not to mention she was still the daughter of a landlord. The difference in position was too large. She had heard many stories like this when listening to the actresses talk.
