Chapter 171 Preparation
However, Xu Jiaorong's many dissatisfactions had disappeared when she saw Bai Suzhen, such a beautiful, gentle and virtuous woman, it was already a great blessing for Xu Xuan to be able to marry Xu Xuan. In addition, Dr. Su deliberately said a few good words, and Xu Jiaorong was extremely satisfied with Bai Suzhen at the moment.
The only thing that surprised Xu Jiaorong was that Li Gongfu always frowned when he saw Bai Suzhen, Xu Jiaorong was a little annoyed, and privately twisted the fine meat on Li Gongfu's waist, "What's the matter?" What do you think of my siblings? ”
Li Gongfu suffered pain, but after so many years with Xu Jiaorong, he had obviously practiced the ability of Mount Tai to collapse in the face, he endured the pain, reached out and opened Xu Jiaorong's hand and said, "Nonsense, what do I think about other girls, what do you know about a woman, our family Xu Xuan, said that he is good at reading, and his brain is alive, I believe it, saying that he can see a doctor, and his medical skills are high, I also believe it, but when it comes to it, Xu Xuan is just a poor scholar and a poor apprentice, such a beautiful girl, can he follow Xu Xuan to suffer?" With this girl's conditions, even if you close your eyes in this Jingshi, you can find a good family to marry."
Hearing Li Gongfu say this, Xu Jiaorong also let go of the hand on Li Gongfu's waist, frowned and said, "Oh, our second brother has nothing in the family business, but his appearance is above average, and he is not as beautiful as our little brother Xu Xian, where does this little lady fancy Xu Xuan?" ”
At this time, she gasped and whispered in shock, "Hey, Gongfu, do you think this white girl is deliberately approaching Xu Xuan, and wants to get something from Xu Xuan?" ”
Li Gongfu heard this, and rolled his eyes at Xu Jiaorong, "Have you seen that thief, going to steal a poor egg?" Now Xu Xuan's most valuable person is probably him. But what is a big girl trying to do with Xu Xuan? Hey, it's because I can't think about this reason clearly, so I think things are a bit messy. ”
Xu Jiaorong just wanted to say something, at this time, I saw Bai Suzhen helping Xu Xuan and starting to walk in this yard, Xu Jiaorong and Li Gongfu stopped this topic with interest, Bai Suzhen saw Li Gongfu and them from a distance, just walked over, and was slightly blessed, "Suzhen has seen my sister,"
According to the rules at this time, before men and women get married, Bai Suzhen should be evasive and can't meet each other. But now Xu Xuan's situation, she has taken care of it for many days, and she is not at ease if she is replaced by someone else, so she has been guarding Xu Xuan for the past few days.
Li Gongfu next to him gave Xu Jiaorong a look, Xu Jiaorong walked up to Bai Suzhen knowingly, smiled slightly, but stepped forward and took Bai Suzhen's hand, and said with a smile, "Oh, don't be so polite, come, let's talk about sisters." ”
As she spoke, she pulled Xu Jiaorong and walked to the side. Xu Xuan looked at Xu Jiaorong's enthusiastic appearance, and couldn't help frowning, there is a big problem with my sister taking Bai Suzhen away in this situation.
"Ahem, look, I asked your sister to take the white girl away," Li Gongfu coughed and said.
Xu Xuan heard Li Gongfu say this, he didn't know what was wrong, and he rolled his eyes helplessly and said, "Yes, brother-in-law, if you have something, just say it, let's not go around in circles."
Li Gongfu pondered for a moment and wanted to consider his rhetoric, but when he heard Xu Xuan say this, he seemed to be the kind of person who hesitated, so he didn't want to think so much, and said directly, "Xu Xuan, your brother-in-law actually has no other thoughts, but he just thinks that our family is such a small family, how can a white girl fall in love with our family?" Does the White Maiden mean something else? ”
Xu Xuan listened to Li Gongfu's words, but he felt funny, his brother-in-law and sister came yesterday, and when he saw that he always wanted to talk and stopped, his feelings were for this matter, but this pie in the sky thing, who would not have to doubt it, after all, the girl is talented and good-looking, how can she fall in love with a poor bastard?
Although Xu Xuan understands Bai Suzhen's identity, does he want him to tell Li Gongfu that my lady is a snake? If Xu Xuan really dared to say it so directly, Li Gongfu estimated that it would be fine, but his sister's temperament and courage would be light to be stunned on the spot.
At the moment, he smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, in fact, I and Miss Bai have known each other during Qingming this year, but then I came to Hangzhou to rescue the master from prison, and Miss Bai came to Hangzhou to look for relatives, and they met together, and happened to live in an inn, but the plague broke out in the southern city, and we were all trapped here, I am a doctor who has nothing to do, and I can't wait for death here, so I found a hospital here to help treat patients, and Miss Bai also came to help, and we naturally became acquainted. People who have seen life and death naturally look down on the floating clouds of money and wealth,"
Li Gongfu heard that although this explanation was reasonable, he still had some hesitation in his heart, but he saw Xu Xuan's defense of Bai Suzhen's words, although he had doubts, but he also knew the truth that was too much, so he sighed, "I hope so"
Xu Jiaorong on the side pulled Bai Suzhen and walked into the distance for a while, thinking that Bai Suzhen couldn't hear Li Gongfu's words, so she smiled and said, "Miss Bai, I am naturally very satisfied with your temperament and appearance, but you and my family Xu Xuan got married in such a hurry, I don't know what the elders in the family mean?" And when will the in-laws come? ”
Bai Suzhen heard Xu Jiaorong ask, and knew that she was here to inquire about her own situation, and it was also said that in the era of the Great Song Dynasty, which was still dominated by matchmakers, she and Xu Xuan were similar to the big rebellion, I am afraid that any elder would not be at ease, Bai Suzhen's cheeks were slightly red, "Sister Rongyu, Suzhen's father was originally in Rongcheng, Sichuan, but my father died, I had no choice but to come to Hangzhou to find my relatives, how did I get here, only to find that there has been no contact for a long time, and there is no news of this relative, so Suzhen has no relatives here."
Speaking of this, Bai Suzhen stopped slightly, and said to Xu Jiaorong slightly, "Sister, I am sincerely in love with Xu Gongzi, and I have no other thoughts, please read that I am lonely and helpless to fulfill us."
Xu Jiaorong, who was listening on the side, heard Bai Suzhen say this, and her eyes turned red, "I can't imagine that the white girl is in such a situation, if the elders on the white girl's side have no opinion, how can I, who is a sister, object?" ”
At that moment, Xu Jiaorong hurriedly moved on to other topics, and after a while, the two were already laughing.
At this time, Dr. Su had already walked over quickly, and when he saw that everyone was there, he pointed to Li Gongfu and said with a smile, "You are all here, it's easy to do now, Li Dalang, you will be lazy when you come here, you are hiding here to be idle, let's go, go out with the old man to help,"
Li Gongfu also smiled when he heard this, "Doctor Su, this is so unreasonable, how lazy am I, I came here yesterday and wanted to help, but you thought I was in the way, and today I complained that I didn't help, whether I do it or not, you say, I am difficult to do."
