When he had rested enough, He Xinmu picked up the short sword and continued to fight with Xue Mu.

The two people, who are neither enemies nor friends, seem to get along very well.

When he finally left, Xue Mu hesitated, but said, "Girl, do you have any internal skills?" ”

He Xinmu didn't intend to lie about this, and nodded yes.

Xue Mu said, "You are too anxious......

"What do you mean?" He Xinmu's gaze stabbed straight at Xue Mu.

Seeing her like this, Xue Mu was even more sure that there was no one behind her to teach, and said to her seriously: "Last time, I found that several meridians in your body are blocked, and forcibly practicing internal strength will only make the meridians unbearable, and there is a possibility of going mad." No matter how anxious you are, it's best to stop and give your physical condition a good recuperation for a few years before practicing. ”

Years? Where could she wait so long?

No matter how calm He Xinmu is, he will inevitably look ugly at this time.

She re-practiced according to the internal skills she had learned in her previous life, but found that the effect was very small, and she vomited a mouthful of blood. Thinking that he was too impatient, he tried to take his time later, but he always felt that his chest was suffocated, his breathing was not smooth, and he couldn't figure out why, until he was pointed out by Xue Mu at this time.

But that hasn't happened before.

Why is that?

Xue Mu was a little surprised when he saw her mourning.

Are martial arts important to her?

She had said just now that she would leave here in the future, but in Xue Mu's ears, it was as naïve as a child saying "I don't take medicine".

Could it be that she really wanted to get out of here.

As far as Xue Mu knew, He Xinmu was a young lady from He Fushu, so it was not surprising that she was not taken seriously. Her best destination is to marry an ordinary person and live a peaceful life.

Shouldn't this be the wish of every concubine?

However, since he met him Xue Mu, he would not let her follow her established path.

But it was one thing for him to force her away, and quite another for her to want to get out of here.

A little girl's family, leaving this side of the mansion, what should she rely on to survive.

Unless...... It's elopement.

Is she fleeing this mansion in search of her lover?

Looking at her look with a little pity, if this is the case, that man is really not worthy of her.

Xue Mu also had doubts about his abilities.

He originally thought that nothing in the entire He Mansion could escape his eyes, so he was a little lax, but he didn't expect that when he didn't know, where he didn't know, something happened that he didn't know.

This is a provocation to his dignity.

Do you want to restrain her directly and ask what is going on?

Xue Mu pursed his lips tightly, looked at He Xinmu, who had not yet come back to his senses, and finally decided to give up.

That's it, he shouldn't be here for long, take her away in the future and ask slowly, now doing too much action, causing unnecessary trouble and suspicion, if you question it from above, it's always not good.

comforted her a few more words, and even promised to come to accompany her to practice martial arts often in the future, and He Xinmu's complexion gradually returned to normal.

When she came back to her senses, He Xinmu secretly screamed in her heart, but what he said just now was too big a blow to her, and she really couldn't accept it for a while.

This is literally a death sentence for her.

Without the martial arts to survive, what will she do to leave here, and what will she take to find a place in this world.

Turn your attention to Xue Mu, or beg him to take her away?

As soon as the idea appeared, He Xinmu vetoed it.

This did not do her situation any good.

He Xinmu adjusted his mood, regained his spirit, and said to Xue Mu: "Then I will trouble Brother Xue from now on...... And this dagger, can you lend it to me for some time? ”

"It's okay, I've given it to you, since you call me Brother Xue, if you have any other needs, you can put it forward, and I can try my best to meet it."

This is a bit frivolous, He Xinmu didn't answer, thanked him and left.

Until the last minute, never give up easily.

He Xinmu comforted himself that he hadn't reached the worst yet, had he?

She hasn't been forced to put on the sedan chair yet, and now she is starting to worry about the sky, the time is a little early, you can think slowly about the way, and you can wait for the opportunity slowly......

******

After the tenth day of the first month, Zhen Zhi and his wife really came again.

He Bing and Zhen Zhi had a good conversation and went out together, and Zhou entertained Lu in the hall.

Because of her husband's face, Zhou's face was forced to smile, and Lu seemed to be unconscious, and he called a lady very affectionately.

Lu didn't mention the marriage, but mentioned another matter: "On the seventeenth day of the first month, Lord Zhizhou held a banquet, and the lord and his wife must have been invited. ”

Zhou didn't talk, thinking to himself, is there less of your reluctant invitation.

Lu didn't care, and continued: "My sister heard that Madame took great care of me, an uncompetitive sister, so she wanted to see Madame and see Madame's demeanor, and ......" Lu covered his mouth and smiled, "Thinking that the daughter taught by Madame under her knees must be like Madame, my sister dared to let Madame bring the young lady of your mansion to the banquet together." ”

Zhou didn't move for a long time with the tea, Lu didn't say it clearly, but the words were clear, asking her to take her daughter and let Xiao Lu go to see each other.

Knocking the teacup on the table, he exhaled a breath of turbidity, barely put on a smile, and said: "My daughters are spoiled by me, I am afraid that they will collide with nobles, so I should stay at home to let me worry." ”

Lu's giggle was extremely dazzling to see Zhou's.

"Madame is really good at laughing, what kind of exquisite person Miss He is, we have seen it, with such a sister, how far can the younger sisters go. Although I haven't seen the second and third misses, I think that there are mothers like Mrs., they must be sensible and polite children, what does it have to do with being lively on weekdays, Madame should not be too strict. ”

Hearing her mention Xingzhu, the breath in Zhou's heart became more and more blocked.

I don't want to go around the bend with her anymore.

"I know what you mean, my daughters were brought up under my nose, Shuyun was reluctant to marry far away, and suddenly asked me to agree to another, do you know how painful my heart hurts."

When Zhou heard this, he knew that this was already half of the promise, and his eyes rolled slightly.

"Madame feels sorry for the eldest lady, how can she bear to let the eldest lady be lonely, leave her a sister as a companion, and also comfort each other's homesickness, isn't it beautiful."

"Xingzhu has a very bad temper, and I have to take my side to stabilize my temperament for a few years." After a pause, he continued, "Xin Mu also grew up next to me, although he is younger, he is more sensible than his sister, caring and steady, and he lives with Shuyun, if the two sisters can marry together, it will be a small fate." ”

Seeing that she avoided the important and trivial, Lu Shi was dissatisfied, but there was no trace on his face, but he still smiled: "It's good to splash your temperament, my younger brother is stubborn, if you can control it, it will also save me worry." ”

This Zhou clan will not follow.

Okay, you Lu family, you really dare to speak, don't you just want to marry your younger brother, just give it to you.

Originally, I wanted to fool a concubine in the past, but I didn't expect the Lu family to really dare to speak, the Zhou family didn't want to worry about this matter anymore, and remembered the master's explanation, so he had to follow her heart.

"You don't know this, you can't control yourself, where can you control others. Xinmu's biological mother went early, and she was under my knees when she was young, and she was the same as Xingzhu in my place, only a name away. I used to think that this girl would be wronged if she married in the future, and planned to raise her identity and marry in the name of her daughter-in-law, which made you coincidental. ”

finally got the result he wanted, where did the Lu family have an unhappy Li'er, and smiled more and more sincerely.

You came and I exchanged a few words, and agreed to take He Xinmu to the banquet when the time came, and before Zhen Zhi came back, Lu Shi said goodbye and left.

******

Lu left the prefect's mansion and did not go home directly, but went straight to his father Lu Yin.

In fact, the Lu family had some resentment towards his father in his heart.

But there was no way to leave him ruthlessly.

In the eyes of others, Lu Yin is lazy, alcoholic, sells his daughter when he has no money, and continues to drink when he has money, which can be described as useless.

Lu sat in a soft sedan chair all the way to his father's house, stopped at the door, but did not get off the sedan chair.

She lifted the curtains and looked at the unfamiliar door.

Lu's family, with a single name and a Rong, is the name given by her mother.

Once upon a time, before their mother died, they also had a warm little home.

I remember that my father was doing the work of a blacksmith, and she was the eldest sister who helped her mother with housework and took care of her younger siblings.

Lu Rong's mother in her memory is beautiful and gentle, wiping the sweat for her father when he was tired, and silently wiping his wounds for him when his father came home full of injuries, then shed tears and sighed: "Why bother." Whenever this happens, my father will say, "You are my woman, who will I defend if I don't defend you?" ”

She didn't know what those words meant at first.

Until - the day the nightmare came.

On that day, some people broke into the house, and her mother locked her and her younger siblings in the cupboard, and fiercely warned her not to make a sound, otherwise she would not be given food at night.

The noise outside gradually faded away, until Daddy came home, opened the cabinet door, pulled her arm with red eyes and asked, where is your mother?

She wanted to say that it hurt, but she didn't dare, she just shook her head vigorously.

Daddy went crazy and ran out to look for it.

Only the body of his mother was brought back.

Later, she learned that the gentle and beautiful mother committed suicide because she was humiliated.

Later, Lu Rong learned that her mother was married to her father from Liang.

What is Congliang? That's when she asked.

only ushered in the violent beating of his father.

Since then, my father has been in a slump, the business of the shop has been abandoned, and the family has no financial resources, but the young Lu Rong has become the pillar of the family, relying on helping others sew and mend it, barely supporting the already broken family.

But one day, my father drank again and wanted to pull my sister to sell it for money to buy wine.

How could Lu Rong be willing, she quarreled with her father, and in the end she was dragged to the market to sell, and she became Lu Rong.

Fortunately, she met Zhen Zhi.

But later, her father still sold her sister behind her back.

Lu Rong pulled out of the memory, was helped by the maid to get off the soft sedan chair, and knocked on the door.
