Extra-Bai Ruoyu (11)
At this time, this little guy didn't dare to slack off like before, and he could sit in the carriage of the Dingguo Mansion, this Young Master Changjing was not ordinary!
Li Changjing also wondered why the little guy was so enthusiastic today, and he actually came out of the door to pick him up, and when he saw the little guy's eyes glancing at the car behind him from time to time, his heart suddenly understood, and he couldn't help sneering in his heart, but he didn't show it, after all, most people in the world are so high and low, not to mention that he is an uneducated gatekeeper!
"Uncle and aunt, can you be in the house at this time?"
"Back to the young master, the master and the lady are here, a few days ago, the master was still talking about the young master Changjing, I don't want you to come back today, you go into the mansion quickly, the slave will let people go and tell you!" The little girl's mouth is also sweet, and the sycophants are also patted.
Li Changjing rewarded him with a dime of silver, asked him to arrange the car and coachman of the Dingguo Mansion, and then followed the other subordinates into the mansion.
At this time, the Qin family, the master mother of the Li Mansion, was playing cards with a few girls in her spare time, and the next person came to report that Li Changjing was here, and the Qin family threw a card absentmindedly and said: "Why are you here again, don't you live outside the city by yourself?" Forget it, come here, come on, the master is in the study, let him go directly to the master, I won't come forward, blame the trouble! ”
"Madam, the porter said that Young Master Changjing came in the car of the Dingguo Mansion!" Seeing this, the girl who told her hurriedly added another sentence.
Qin's hand holding the card couldn't help but pause, and then turned his head sharply and asked the girl, "What did you say?" Whose carriage did he come in? ”
"Mrs. Hui, it's the car of Dingguo Mansion. It's not a horse-drawn carriage, it's a rickshaw, a five-wheeled one, the latest, it's magnificent! The girl hurriedly bowed her head and replied.
Qin Shiteng stood up and threw the cards on the table, "Come on, change clothes!" ”
Although the Qin family has some power eyes, they are not stupid, and the Dingguo Mansion is willing to send a five-wheeled rickshaw to Li Changjing. Obviously, there is a chance with Li Changjing. This is a good thing for the Li family, she must ask about it.
In the hall of the Li family, Li Shilang and his wife received Li Changjing with a smile, even the Qin family, who usually does superficial kung fu. Now the smile is a little more tangible.
Li Shilang really loves this promising nephew. After all, the prosperity of a family cannot be achieved by one person alone. This nephew is the most promising one in the next generation, and as an uncle, he naturally has to take care of him more.
As for Qin's enthusiasm. I'm afraid it's a car from the Dingguo Mansion.
It's just that when Li Changjing said the purpose of this trip, the two of them were all stunned, the corners of Qin's mouth twitched, there was a slight invisible mockery in his eyes, and he lowered his head and didn't gnaw.
And Li Mingyuan said with some embarrassment: "Jing'er, it's not that your uncle and aunt won't help you, this second girl Bai is naturally good, but our family's family is far from the mansion, I'm afraid I can't climb high, I think it's okay to mention this marriage, let your aunt find a good girl for you again!" ”
Li Changjing also knew what this uncle was worried about, so he said what the Han family said when he saw him this morning.
After he finished speaking, Li Mingyuan couldn't help but stand up abruptly on the table, and said in a slightly excited voice: "Jing'er, did Second Lady Bai really say that?" ”
"Exactly, otherwise my nephew wouldn't dare to have such a delusion, even if he has a heart!"
"Then tell your uncle and aunt how you ended up in the Guogong Mansion and what happened during this period? Why did the second lady fall in love with you? Qin also became nervous, and she had a hunch in her heart that what this nephew said might be true.
Since he was going to be a relative, Li Changjing did not hide it from the elders in the family, and told the story of saving Bai Ruoyu that day, but during the period, for Bai Ruoyu's reputation, some things that could not be said were still not said.
After listening to Li Changjing's words, Li Mingyuan couldn't help but stroke his palms and laugh: "Hahaha, good, good, Jing'er did the right thing, did a good job, has the style of a gentleman, and is worthy of being a good son of my Li family, Jing'er is a blessing in disguise!" ”
After listening to Li Changjing's words, Li Mingyuan knew that it should be true that the Bai family wanted to marry his nephew, after all, it was a life-saving grace, he was sincerely happy for his nephew this time, and he was also happy for the Li family!
has made a relationship with the Bai family, if nothing else, this nephew's future will definitely be higher than his in the future, and their Li family can stand in southern Hunan for a hundred years, and it is even possible to develop to Beijing.
The Qin family also had a smile on his face, but he was slightly bitter in his heart, he didn't expect this Li Changjing to take **** luck, save the second girl Bai, and enter the eyes of the Bai family, how good it would be if it were her son!
Her son Li Changshu is also a good one, and he studies hard, but his body is a little weak, and he is sixteen years old this year, which is the time to say goodbye.
Some time ago, she also heard that the crown princess and the second lady Bai were kissing the second girl, and at first she didn't look down on the second girl, after all, the second girl and the princess were not the same mother, and then she heard that the princess and the old man loved the second girl very much, so she thought about it.
Although the second girl Bai is a few years older than his son, don't people say that the third female has a gold brick, and if she can marry the second girl Bai, she is the son-in-law of the Guogong Mansion, the brother-in-law of the prince, and she can get the help of the Dingguo Mansion, so do you still have to worry about his son's future!
And she also knows that there are many doctors in the Bai family with superb medical skills, if the second girl Bai enters the door, maybe she can condition his son's body and strengthen it, who cares how old he is!
For this reason, she also personally probed the tone of Second Lady Bai at a certain banquet, but Second Lady Bai meant that she was not optimistic about finding a younger one for the second girl, and she didn't dare to say anything anymore, so she had no choice but to give up.
Unexpectedly, the marriage still fell to their Li family, but the candidate was not her son, but a nephew from the countryside who she looked down on, this psychological gap made the Qin family very uncomfortable.
raised his eyes and looked at Li Changjing, who was sitting there, and couldn't help pouting fiercely, this Li Changjing is so old, his background and family background are not as good as her son, but he saved people once by coincidence, and he got such a good family business. It's really **** luck!
The Qin family was jealous in his heart, but this uncomfortable state of mind only stayed in his heart for a while, and when he looked at his husband who was talking to Li Changjing with great interest, he was silently corrected by her.
The Qin family is a smart person, since she sees that this nephew is also developed, she will naturally not embarrass him, in the future, the affairs of this mansion, as well as the affairs of his son, maybe she will need this Li Changjing's help!
Fortunately, she was only a little perfunctory to Li Changjing before, and there was no embarrassment on the surface, and it should be easy to ask him for help later.
She didn't think about ruining Li Changjing's marriage. and put it on the head of his own son. Because she knew in her heart that the Guogong Mansion was not so easy to fiddle with, she didn't have the courage to be a woman, and the master would definitely not agree.
Now that I'm going to be a parent. Li Changjing will not be able to return to the Dingguo Mansion again. Li Mingyuan left him behind. Then he sent someone to give a letter to the Given-Country Mansion, and Xiaobo also asked them to take care of it.
Three days later, Li Mingyuan specially asked for leave from the yamen. took the Qin family to visit the Dingguo Mansion.
Unexpectedly, even the second master Bai who was supposed to be in the yamen actually received them at home, which flattered Li Mingyuan, he was a waiter in the Ministry of Works, and Second Master Bai was the secretary of the Ministry of Works, but what about his top boss!
Because Li Changjing's mother has handed over Li Changjing's marriage to Li Mingyuan and his wife, Li Mingyuan and his wife are extremely satisfied with this marriage, the two sides talked about it, and then orally decided on the marriage, and chose a good day in a few days to officially propose, and then the Li family prepared a dowry and came to officially hire a month later!
Although the time is a bit rushed, but the two of them are not young, the old man means that let them get married within the year, if Li Changjing can be admitted to the imperial examination this time, and then the official will be dispatched, Yu'er can follow her husband to take office-
At this time, Bai Ruoyu didn't know that her marriage was so decided, and the words of the parents and the matchmaker were all in charge of the elders, and no daughter's family came forward by herself.
If she didn't know Bai Ruoyu's thoughts, maybe the Han family would ask her in private, but now that they know her thoughts, the elders have also omitted this link, so no one told her, and she didn't know anything.
With Ruoyun sending someone to recuperate for her, Bai Ruoyu's body was already well, and at this time she was sitting on the embroidery bed in her room, looking at the neatly folded set of clothes on the bed in a daze!
This is a set of men's clothes, the one that Xiaobo took to Bai Ruoyu that day, this dress was stained with some blood that day, and now it has been washed and ironed smoothly.
After the clothes were taken care of, Bai Ruoyu sent Su Xuan to the front yard to send them to Li Gongzi in person, and by the way, she also brought a few pastries made by herself, which was her gratitude to Li Gongzi.
Who knows, Su Xuan brought things back not long after he went, because Li Gongzi had already left, saying that he had been away for two days, Bai Ruoyu's heart suddenly became uncomfortable and disappointed!
"Why did you leave, why didn't you leave without even saying a word, at least it saved her life, and it can be regarded as a friend of life and death, why didn't you even leave her a word, and left without saying a word!" Bai Ruoyu kept repeating these questions in her heart.
She reached out and stroked the clothes on the bed, although she knew that Li Gongzi had not worn this dress, but when she saw this dress, she seemed to see him, thinking of that thrilling night, the firm back that protected her behind her.
I couldn't help but feel a little throbbing in my heart, and there were bursts of discomfort, why did she leave like this, she didn't even have time to say thank you to him, and she hadn't even asked his name, and her knowledge of him was limited to the three words "Li Gongzi"!
At this time, she thought that they almost didn't talk much that day, but every word and action at that time was so unforgettable!
However, people just left, thinking that they didn't want to have anything to do with her, so they just said goodbye, is this their attitude?
Bai Ruoyu sighed deeply, got up and found a square carved wooden box, then picked up the set of clothes from the bed, and laid it out little by little in the wooden box.
After looking at it for a while, when she put the lid on the box, Bai Ruoyu even felt as if her heart was also locked up, and she was so uncomfortable.
Picked up the box, got up and put it in the innermost part of the cabinet!
Well, since you haven't gone back, then treasure it in the innermost, just to leave an unforgettable memory for yourself!
As soon as she put her things away, Bai Ruoyu straightened up and saw the girl Suyu running in in a panic.
Bai Ruoyu couldn't help glaring at her angrily, "It's not a little girl anymore, why are you still so flustered, how can you teach those little girls in the future!" ”
"Auntie, girl, my husband has decided your marriage!" Su Yu didn't have time to explain, so she shouted out the words that she had been holding in her heart all the way!
When Bai Ruoyu heard this, she was not only stunned on the spot, but she couldn't help but take a step back, holding on to the wardrobe, and her face turned pale all of a sudden.
It's not that she doesn't believe in the marriage that her grandfather has set for her, she knows that the marriage that her grandfather has set for her must be good, and if it had been placed before, she might have accepted it peacefully.
But, now, no!
She has someone in her heart, but this person is gone, and she still has time to heal the scars in her heart, how can she just accept a new marriage, this is too sudden!
But the elders are in charge of the major matters of marriage, and she has no right to speak in a woman's family, and the elders have made a decision and cannot change it, so what should she do!
"Who's the one that's going to be?"
"I heard that it is the young master of Li Shilang's family in the Ministry of Works, and it is the Ministry of Works where our second master is here!" Su Yu said anxiously.
"Come on, prepare the car, I'm going to the East Palace!"
Bai Ruoyu suddenly shouted, she was going to find the eldest sister, only the eldest sister could help her at this time, she didn't want to get engaged, at least not now, she always felt that she should ask Li Gongzi, to ask clearly, she didn't want to get engaged before this.
Bai Ruoyu took someone to the East Palace in a hurry, and knelt down without saying a word when she saw Ruoyun, "Eldest sister, please help me!" ”
Ruoyun was kneeling by her, kneeling inexplicably, she quickly helped the person up, frowned, and said, "Yu'er, what's wrong with you, what's wrong?" ”
"Eldest sister, please help Yu'er tell her grandfather, Yu'er doesn't want to get married, and Yu'er is willing to stay at home to serve her grandfather and father!" Bai Ruoyu lowered her head and said with red eyes.
"Stupid words, how can there be a girl who can't get married!" Ruoyun said angrily, and then asked the girl behind Bai Ruoyu: "Why did you girls come here, don't you hurry up and say it!" ”
was asked by the crown princess, Su Xuan and Su Yu didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly told the story that someone came to the house today to propose marriage, and the old man had already agreed.
Ruoyun laughed when she heard this, she knew about the Li family's proposal today, it seems that Yu'er, a stupid girl, didn't figure out the situation, so she came in a hurry, this is a mess! (To be continued.) )
