In the quiet and warm room, Xia Shuanghan's silent persuasion was penetrating into Lu Shaoyun's heart little by little through Lu Shaoyun's palm. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Do you remember at the end of last month, when you and I asked for a marriage and the separation of Seifu-in Temple? At that time, I had already pointed out the loopholes in your thinking, and you can't deny that. However, don't you think that if you get into trouble, all the problems that plague you and me can be solved? ”

"You are rich, although you do want to move yourself out of the Lu family's genealogy forever, but after marriage, we can ensure that we have a couple for the rest of our lives, right? In the territory of Great Xia, all men who are rich in wealth are not allowed to divorce their wives or concubines for the rest of their lives, and even the holy decrees and edicts are not allowed to give marriage to such men. I'm sure you know all of these situations. So, don't you think that getting rich is the best way to prevent other women from interfering between us? ”

"After getting married, as long as you want, the two of us can live in this house now, and live our own lives like all Rong couples. We can do what we want to do, and we can teach and raise our own children according to our own ideas. What's more, the Xia family has a rising sun, what is the revitalization of the family business, the extension of incense, such a thing does not need you to worry about at all, and when we have children in the future, we still let them have the surname Lu, isn't this bad? ”

"Ting Xuan, you have your own ability, you have always wanted to rely on your own hands to fight the world, and you don't care about the property in the Guogong Mansion at all. So even if you get rich, you don't lose anything except genealogy and nominal changes, do you? Your parents are still your parents, your grandfather is still your grandfather, you can go back to see them whenever you want, can you? ”

"Maybe in your heart, you will think that only men who have no ability are willing to do it, but is other people's gossip really that heavy? You know what the conditions of the Xia family are, and others also know very well in their hearts, there is nothing in our family that is worth your attention to, this is an obvious fact. So, the body is not afraid of the shadow, what others say, do you really care so much? ”

Xia Shuanghan's well-organized persuasion shook Lu Shaoyun, who was in the arms of a beautiful woman. Yes, according to what Xia Shuanghan said, what she asked for has never changed from beginning to end, "freedom, equality, loyalty", these eight words are all the reasons why she put forward the request of "joining the redundancy".

However, although "entering the family" is indeed the way to get married that sounds closest to the ideal marriage state in Xia Shuanghan's mind, Lu Shaoyun still can't make a hasty decision at this moment.

Xia Shuanghan, who fully understood Lu Shaoyun's inner contradictions and struggles, did not plan to ask for an exact explanation for the matter tonight. After all, she still has eight months to make good use of before the "wedding appointment date" after the Lantern Festival next year.

In this life, in order to be with Lu Shaoyun, and to live the unique married life she pursued, Xia Shuanghan is willing to use the next time to go to Guanwai to do her best to make Lu Shaoyun make up her mind to stay with her for the rest of her life, and to achieve her ultimate goal.

So, Xia Shuanghan, who was not in a hurry to get an answer tonight, just wanted Lu Shaoyun not to resist the proposal of "joining the money", and continued to write in Lu Shaoyun's palm: "Ting Xuan, I know that from your standpoint, it is not easy for you to accept this proposal immediately. But we still have time, don't we? ”

"Before we return to the capital from Guanwai, I believe you have plenty of time to think this issue through. So, when we come back from Kanwai, you can tell me your decision at that time. ”

"Then what if, at that time, I still can't join the Xia family? At that time, will you leave me forever and marry someone else? ”

The question asked made Lu Shaoyun's heart tremble violently, and he clearly remembered that ten days ago, when he mistakenly thought that Xia Shuanghan was in love with Liu Zirun, he couldn't accept her departure. So now, when he has already obtained Xia Shuanghan's heart, how can he completely let go of Xia Shuanghan?

"Ting Xuan, although I really don't want my reply to sound like a threat to you, but if at that time, I still can't firmly grasp my married life in my own hands, then I'm sorry, I'm going to leave you after all!"

"No, you can't!" hugged Lu Shaoyun, who was delicate in his arms, and his chest was so tight that he felt like he had been punched. His heart was so uncomfortable that he couldn't imagine what his future life would be like if Xia Shuanghan didn't marry him but married someone else. Frost and cold have children with other men, and he is alone in his old age? He really can't accept such a miserable future life!

"I don't want to leave you either, but Tingxuan, you have to know that everyone has their bottom line. And my bottom line, you already know. ”

Raising her hand around her sweetheart's waist, Xia Shuanghan, who settled in the crook of Lu Shaoyun's arm, didn't want to continue to "get into the troubles", a topic that had been almost discussed, so she smiled and wrote: "I'm not going home tonight, because I want to make sure that you really didn't leave me forever because of that explosion in the daytime." ”

"I'm really good, don't believe it, listen." Lu Shaoyun, who was warmed by Xia Shuanghan's words, leaned forward and let the person in his arms listen to his violent heartbeat.

And in the "plop plop", the regular heartbeat, the summer frost and cold, which had been busy all day, finally found the best position to sleep peacefully in Lu Shaoyun's arm, and then slowly fell asleep.

lowered his head and dropped a kiss on Xia Shuanghan's forehead, but Lu Shaoyun, who was hugging his sweetheart, couldn't fall asleep.

"Is it a big deal? It's not that I can't accept it, it's just too hard. Neither my father nor my mother will agree to say it, but I am afraid that my grandfather will never agree either, right? Frost, why is it so hard for me to be with you? ”

The morning light of dawn woke up the summer frost from sleep after a good night's sleep.

Rubbing his sleepy eyes, he opened his eyes and looked at the peaceful sleeping face in front of him, determined to start using the love net he had woven to trap Lu Shaoyun's Xia Shuanghan from today onwards, raised his upper body slightly, and gently dropped a kiss on his sweetheart's lips.

And Lu Shaoyun, who also woke up at the same time as Xia Shuanghan woke up, opened his eyes decisively after feeling a touch of warmth and wetness at the corner of his lips.

When he looked at Xia Shuanghan, Lu Shaoyun thought that he would see emotions like shyness or surprise on her face, but no. The woman in front of him just smiled, said good morning to him silently and generously, and then got dressed and got out of bed.

May 16, this should have been the day when Lu Shaoyun went to the caravan camp outside the city with Lin Xiran and Xia Shuanghan after changing his appearance according to the plan.

A month ago, the three of them ordered tea and silk in the east market of the capital together with Baliya and Aguirre will all arrive today. Inspecting the goods, settling the payment, and then making further preparations for customs clearance should be Lu Shaoyun's task today.

However, the Taoist priest who was disfigured in the basement yesterday with corpse water, as well as some of the things that the Jin Wuwei later searched from the Sanqing Temple, all demanded that Lu Shaoyun have to go to the palace today.

"It's okay, you go get busy," Xia Shuanghan, who was about to go to the caravan camp outside the city after washing up and having breakfast, smiled and wrote in Lu Shaoyun's palm: "All things, Xiran and I will do everything." ”

"Okay, then I'll go first." Raising his hand to pin a strand of playful curly hair from Xia Shuanghan's ear behind her ear, Lu Shaoyun, who didn't want to be separated from his sweetheart immediately the day after exchanging heartfelt feelings, reluctantly said: "Wait for the evening, can I come to you again at night?" ”

"Okay, I'll wait for you."

In Xia Shuanghan's smiling gaze, Lu Shaoyun turned over and went straight to Suzaku Street, which led to the south gate of the palace. But at this time, he didn't expect that when he left the palace and returned home and wanted to go to his grandfather's courtyard, he would see some people he didn't want to see in the back garden of the Dingguo Mansion.

The eighth lady of Dingguo Mansion, Lu Shaoyun's youngest sister Lu Ruqian, she is such a young lady who grew up under the pampering of her mother and older brothers and sisters, and her life has not been very smooth in the past seven or eight days.

On the eighth day of the fifth lunar month, when she asked her personal girl to send a message to her third cousin (Xu Sangongzi) who had not yet entered Weirui Garden, she had been waiting for the "good news" that Xia Shuanghan was cleaned up by her cousin's subordinates.

However, contrary to her wishes, she looked left and right that day, and in the end, not only did she not get the ending she expected, but she was also completely abandoned by her cousin on the grounds that "you can't interfere in your sister's marriage anyway, and I'm still not wasting time on you".

The reason why she can no longer use her cousin to do this and that must be because of what Xia Shuanghan said or did, Lu Ruqian can be sure of this. However, even if she knew that the reason why she would lose her third cousin, the only foreign aid, was completely Xia Shuanghan's fault, what could she, an eleven-year-old young lady who was not allowed to step out of the gate of the national mansion at will, do to Xia Shuanghan?

Hand over the post to invite Xia Shuanghan to her house, and secretly stumble and pamper her? Xia Shuanghan is now a bride-to-be who must prepare a dowry at home, so she can't go out!

So, Lu Ruqian, who is poor in donkey skills, thought about her favorite sister Huanting, who had a temperament like a fairy, and she just wanted to take a bad breath for herself, and instantly thought to herself: If the fifth brother can fall in love with Sister Huanting, who is more compatible with him regardless of family background or appearance, then at that time, Xia Shuanghan, the ugly girl who was discarded by her brother, will she no longer be able to be arrogant in front of her?

May 16, this is a day when the Pei sisters are invited to the Dingguo Mansion as guests.

In the lush garden, Lu Ruqian, who beckoned the girl to build a ladder and go up the tree to save her cat for her, inadvertently saw Lu Shaoyun who was about to change the route and leave in a flash at the garden gate.

So, Lu Ruqian, who wanted to bring Lu Shaoyun and Pei Huanting together to take revenge on Xia Shuanghan, seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and decisively raised her voice towards the back of Lu Shaoyun, who was about to leave: "Fifth brother, my 'snow group' can't climb down the tree, our ladder is not high enough, can you help me save the 'snow group'?" ”

Outside the garden, Lu Shaoyun, who originally had a business to discuss with his grandfather after leaving the palace gate, was planning to take the nearest road in the garden and go straight to his grandfather's Xixia Courtyard. But when he walked to the gate of the garden, a reminder from the girl that "there are female guests in the garden" stopped him from continuing to move forward.

Adhering to the rules of the Han people, Lu Shaoyun, who knew that he was not suitable to meet with female guests, was about to turn around and change his route from a good stream, but his sister's request made him stop again.

To be honest, among his sisters and sisters, Lu Shaoyun's relationship with his eighth sister Lu Ruqian can be said to be the weakest. After all, when he left Beijing at the age of twelve to join the army, Lu Ruqian was just a three-year-old doll, and they couldn't say a few words at all.

It's just that the feelings are not deep, and Lu Ruqian treats her snow-white kitten as a baby, but Lu Shaoyun, who has been in Beijing for more than half a year, still knows this.

So, with the idea that "if the kitten has three long and two short, it will be more troublesome for the eighth sister to cry", Lu Shaoyun ordered outside the garden to let the girl enter the garden and ask the female guests to wear veils. After that, he strode into the back garden.

The sixth sister Lu Ruhui and the eighth sister Lu Ruqian entertained any guests in the garden, Lu Shaoyun was not interested. Therefore, when he walked into the garden, he just hugged his fists politely and politely at the two female guests, and then turned his eyes to the little white cat standing tremblingly on the branch.

It's just that, contrary to Lu Shaoyun's cold attitude, the reason why she intersected with the Lu sisters was originally for Lu Shaoyun's Pei Huanting, but at this moment, she couldn't wait to shout: "The emperor lives up to his heart, I finally see my sweetheart." ”

You must know that it took Pei Huanting nearly two months, careful planning, and many efforts to finally meet her favorite person in the Dingguo Mansion in a bright and bright manner, which is called her, how can she not be excited?

Seeing that Lu Shaoyun stepped a little bit, and in the blink of an eye, he went up to the tree to save the little white cat that kept shaking, Pei Huanting was in a dawn in her heart, and she just wanted to rush forward and call Lu Shaoyun "Engong", in order to seek a chance to talk to him.

However, Pei Huanting on the side of the box still couldn't make up her mind, and she didn't know if she would cause Lu Shaoyun's displeasure when she rashly mentioned the rescue in the first place; On the other side, Lu Ruqian, who was supposed to take over the "Snow Regiment" from Lu Shaoyun, even if it was a matter of time, completely angered her, the fifth brother who was always gentle to people on weekdays.

It turned out that the snow ball that was held by Lu Shaoyun in the crook of his arm accidentally scratched Lu Shaoyun's sleeve under his claws during the struggle. In the cracks of the torn sleeves, Lu Shaoyun carried it in his sleeve pocket, and Xia Shuanghan revealed a corner of the peace and happiness that Xia Shuanghan had made for him.

And Lu Ruqian, who stepped forward and was supposed to hug the kitten directly, but the moment she caught a glimpse of the peace and wishful knot, she left the "snow ball" and snatched the "baby" that Lu Shaoyun had been carrying.

"Eighth sister, quickly return the peace knot to me." Handing the kitten in his arms to the maid waiting on the side, Lu Shaoyun, who turned around, stretched out his hand to Lu Ruqian with his palm facing up, only wanting to return his peace and wishful wishes.

"Fifth brother, who made this for you?" Looking down at the peace knot in his hand, its cheap red cotton rope made Lu Ruqian's heart sprout a bad premonition, "Could it be, it was made for you by that Xia Shuanghan, right?" ”

"Eighth sister, who allowed you to call Frost Cold by name like this?" Stretching out his hand to get back the peace knot, but Lu Shaoyun, who was dodged by Lu Ruqian, began to feel displeased, and he said in a cold voice: "Shuang Han is your future fifth sister-in-law, how can you call her like that?" ”

"What a fifth sister-in-law, she is such an ugly bastard, she is not qualified to be my fifth sister-in-law at all!" Lu Ruqian, who had dodged to the side, puffed out her cheeks angrily, grabbed the red knot in her hand and asked, "Fifth brother, you say, did Xia Shuanghan do this for you?" ”

"Yes and what? Don't hurry up and give it back to me. ”

"I don't, I don't! She is a poor-born Hu person, what is there to carry with you, fifth brother? After speaking, Lu Ruqian threw the peace knot in her hand to the ground, and was about to step on it when she raised her foot.

"Lu Ruqian!" When Lu Ruqian waved her hand and threw the peace knot on the ground, Lu Shaoyun predicted what she would do next. So, he reacted quickly and moved forward in two steps, and before Lu Ruqian's right foot fell, he stretched out his hand neatly and pulled her aside roughly.

"Oops!" Lu Ruqian, who was hurt by Lu Shaoyun's upper arm, couldn't believe that her own brother would be so cruel to her for an outsider! "Fifth brother, are you deluded by ghosts, for such a thing, you actually treat me like this?"

Bending down to pick up the peace knot on the ground, gently brushing off the dust on the red cotton rope, Lu Shaoyun, who turned around, looked at Lu Ruqian, who had tears in his eyes, hugged his arms and exclaimed in pain, and said coldly: "Eighth sister, you are not young anymore, it is not your turn to point fingers at your brother's affairs, you should understand this!" Also, I've learned all the etiquette and upbringing, and if I hear you disrespectful to Frost and Cold next time, don't blame me for being unkind to you! ”

"I'll just-" Lu Ruqian, who suffered a loss at Lu Shaoyun's hands, wanted to argue again, but Lu Ruhui, who couldn't stand it anymore, stepped forward and covered her mouth.

While stopping his sister's rebuttal, he whispered softly to Lu Ruhui, who was laughing with Lu Shaoyun: "Fifth brother, it's all my fault, it's me who didn't take care of the eighth sister, don't be angry with her, if there is anything, go and get busy, don't delay." ”

Lu Ruhui's words can be regarded as a round for her sister, and it did not make Lu Ruqian continue to make more ugly trouble in front of the Pei sisters. But if she thought that this matter would stop here, then she was very wrong.

"Fifth brother, I really don't understand, what is that Xia Shuanghan worthy of your maintenance like this?" Breaking free of her sister's shackles, Lu Ruqian, who thought she had grabbed Xia Shuanghan's handle, said fearlessly: "Fifth brother, do you know that Xia Shuanghan, the uneducated Hu man, actually disguised himself as a man and swaggered through the city at will when the marriage date had already been set!" A woman like her is not qualified to marry into the gate of our Dingguo Mansion at all! ”

"Lu Ruqian!" Lu Shaoyun believed that if the person in front of him who was disrespectful to Xia Shuanghan was not his own sister, he would definitely have slapped him.

Lu Shaoyun, who clenched his fists, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said mercilessly: "Eighth sister, fifth brother, I will tell you straight to the point today, whether it is a cold woman pretending to be a man, or selling paintings on the street, I know and support everything she does." Therefore, whether she is qualified to marry into the gate of the Dingguo Mansion does not need you to worry about this matter. ”

"If you're too idle, you might as well take care of your own business! You know, a brutal and willful, snarky woman can't get married, you'd better remember this for me! ”

"Five...... Fifth brother?! You...... You even say that about me? Since she was a child, Lu Ruqian, who had been said such heavy words, instantly turned red, her eyelashes trembled, and tears fell straight down.

Beside her, Lu Ruhui, who knew very well what was right and wrong in today's matter, did not open her mouth to argue for her sister. And the Pei sisters, who were standing not far away and wanted to insert two sentences, also had no position to speak out because of their identity as "female guests".

Looking at the man in front of him carefully putting the peace knot into the sleeve pocket of the other intact cuff, Pei Huanting, who was still immersed in Lu Shaoyun's speech, couldn't come back to her senses at all.

As Lu Gongzi said just now, he knew everything about what Xia Shuanghan did and supported it. So, could it be true that what the summer frost said to me in the garden a few days ago is true? What Lu Gongzi likes, is it really Xia Shuanghan's unruliness?

Lu Shaoyun, who put away the peace knot and was not willing to comfort his sister at all, turned around and walked out of the garden. But after only a few steps, the whispering sound from behind attracted his attention again.

How Pei Huanyuan stepped forward and comforted Lu Ruqian softly, Lu Shaoyun didn't care about this, what really made him care was Pei Huanyuan's voice.

At the end of March, when he met the Pei family at the foot of Lotus Mountain, Lu Shaoyun left a very deep impression on the rude and willful Miss Pei Jiu who pulled Xia Shuanghan. So, when he suddenly heard this disgusting voice in his back garden today, Lu Shaoyun turned around and locked his eyes on Pei Huanyuan.

From the height, body shape, hair accessories, clothing, and the pair of eyes that appeared on the veil, Lu Shaoyun, who identified this girl as Miss Pei Jiu, moved two back and forth between the Pei sisters with cold eyes.

Then, he sneered in his heart and said: "Hmph, when Shuang Han said that the Pei sisters frequently came and went to the Dingguo Mansion, I still wondered how our Lu family and the Prime Minister's Mansion had nothing to do with each other, how they were introduced as close friends by my two sisters within a month and a half." But it turns out that it is just a gathering of things by like, and people by groups. The two spoiled little girls smell the same thing, and it's really Wang Ba who looks at mung beans - right eyes!
