Chapter 241: Suspicion of clinging to the powerful

A cold glint flashed in Old Madam Bai's eyes, she nodded, and said, "It must be found out, if anyone dares to beat my Bai family's heir's idea, I will not spare him!" ”

Let's say that Bai Shizu hurried back to Fulu Yuan here, and the Lu family was looking at him expectantly, but after hearing him say that the old lady was only willing to give 10,000 taels, his face immediately turned pale.

If it weren't for the last shred of reason and restraint, the Lu family would definitely be furious and scolded, but she knew that now that Bai Shizu was angry with her again, no one would really care about her life or death.

was extremely depressed, and only squeezed out some tears and said: "Husband, the concubine doesn't blame you, the concubine only blames herself for doing something stupid, but ...... What should I do if I still haven't paid off my money when the deadline has expired? The county lord will definitely send me to the government to be punished! ”

Bai Shizu looked at her pitiful appearance, and couldn't bear to say in his heart: "Let's think about it again, didn't you say that you still have some shops and Zhuangzi?" It's better to sell it first, anyway, you can't do without food and clothing in the Bai family, and those external objects will be gone if they are gone! ”

"But...... But it's not enough......" Lu said bitterly.

Bai Shizu thought about it for a while, and then said, "Haven't you purchased a lot of things over the years?" Even Xi'er and Xuan'er have a lot of valuables in their houses, and they have all been taken out and sold, let's see how many things can be counted, anyway, many things are not needed there! ”

Lu Shi felt depressed when he thought that he would have to sell things to repay the money, but when he thought of Bai Hibiscus's cold eyes, he was very afraid that she would really threaten his children.

It's not the first time that Xi'er has suffered a loss from eating white hibiscus, since the feast of flowers, she has understood that her own children are not Bai Hibiscus's opponents at all, and if she is ruthless to deal with them, she can't do anything about it.

What's more, she has the confessions of those stewards in her hands, once handed over to the government, she will be guilty, is she really going to stay in prison for a few years? In this way, she doesn't have to be a person when she comes out, and her children will not be able to raise their heads for the rest of their lives.

She thought that Bai Mu Hibiscus probably wished that she couldn't pay the money, and then sent her to Jing Zhaoyin, who was now the county lord, and although this would also make her bear some stigma, it would hit her harder. When the time comes, if the second brother is implicated, their years of planning will really be ruined!

Thinking of this, she can no longer lie on the bed to recuperate, although the doctor explained that she has to lie still for half a month before she can get out of bed, but now she can take care of a lot.

After sending Bai Shizu away, the Lu family asked Yingqiu and Nuan Dong to change their clothes, and prepared a carriage that only people can use on weekdays, and quietly went out of the house, for fear of being seen her whereabouts.

It's just that she didn't expect that her front foot went out of the house, and someone on the back foot ran to Yiqin Pavilion to ventilate and report the news.

"Master, then the Lu family must have gone back to the Lu family to find help!" Mama Rui asserted.

Bai Mujin nodded, smiled, and said, "It's okay, let her go and find it, otherwise how can she die?" Oh...... It's time to inform that Zhu Changrong and go to the Lu family to withdraw from his family, so that he can come and propose to my sister, right? ”

"You mean to separate their brother and sister?" Mama Rui asked.

Bai Mujian said as usual: "I don't need to be separated, the Hu family will not willingly help the Lu family repay the debt, but Lu Zhaoan will be afraid of the relationship between brothers and sisters, so ...... I'm just giving Lu Zhaoan a justifiable excuse to reject his good sister! ”

Mama Rui nodded and said, "Don't worry, master, the slaves and maids over there will arrange it by themselves, and there will be no mistakes!" ”

"Hmm...... By the way, I made an appointment with Qingyun's cousin and cousin in Tianyi Pavilion, and the time is almost up, so let's go and have a good meal! Bai Hibiscus shook his head and relaxed.

When the magpie heard this, he couldn't help but say happily: "Really, Tianyi Pavilion, I have long heard that the dishes there are all delicious in the world, Miss, can you also reward the slave maid for a bite?" ”

Bai Mujin looked at the magpie helplessly, although this girl was two years older than herself, she was born simple like a child, and her temperament was jumpy and lively.

"Okay, you eat at a separate table, eat well! The emperor and queen have rewarded a lot of gold and silver, and now your young lady is also a rich man! Bai Mu Hibiscus said with a smile.

The magpie shouted happily and said, "Great, Mama Rui, Sister Mandarin Duck, we have a good mouth!" ”

Several people also happily rode the carriage to Tianyi Pavilion, she had already sent someone to book a private room, so she went upstairs without pausing.

It was still early at this time, so Lu Qingyun and the others did not come. Bai Mu Hibiscus only ordered a pot of Biluochun and sat in front of the window quietly drinking tea.

About a cup of tea, I heard Xiao Er's voice outside the door of the private room, and I knew that Lu Qingyun and they were coming, so I hurriedly asked the mandarin duck to greet him at the door.

The mandarin duck opened the door, bowed his head and saluted Lu Qingyun, only to find that more than one person had come.

"His Royal Highness King Xuan, Zeng Gongzi?" The mandarin duck saluted in surprise, and said in her heart, didn't Miss say that she only invited the young master and the young lady? Why are there two more people?

Lu Qingyun glanced at them and said, "Mandarin ducks, don't pay attention to these uninvited guests, what about your young lady?" ”

"Oh...... Miss is waiting inside, please come in! The mandarin duck came back to his senses and quickly let people in, and Lu Qingyun took the lead in with a flick of his clothes.

Lu Feiyuan smiled at the mandarin duck and followed in, King Xuan and Zeng Mingxi glanced at each other, and unceremoniously walked into the private room one after the other.

Bai Mujin was looking down and tasting the tea in his hand, and when he saw someone coming in, he got up unhurriedly, Lu Qingyun and Lu Feiyuan were just about to salute her, but they were glared at by her and said, "What's wrong?" Do you want to make me feel ashamed? ”

Lu Feiyuan snorted and laughed, she couldn't hold it anymore, stepped over, took Bai Hibiscus's hand, and said with a smile: "Playing with you, do you really want to be angry?" ”

"Hmph, I know that my cousin and cousin are not well-intentioned, so hurry up and take a seat!" Bai Hibiscus beckoned, but didn't notice the other two people coming in behind him.

Until Feng Jiuqing coughed lightly and arched his hand: "County Lord, this king is uninvited, the county lord shouldn't turn this king away, right?" ”

Bai Mujin was just about to speak, but saw Zeng Mingxi also step forward, bowed his head and said: "County Lord, the minister met Brother Qingyun by chance, and he came to disturb him, I don't know if it is abrupt?" ”

"Mingxi, did you meet by chance? Did you encounter them by chance at the door of someone's house? Lu Qingyun ruthlessly exposed Zeng Mingxi's lies.

"And you, His Royal Highness King Xuan, it seems that this day is your property, you can come whenever you want, why do you have to choose this day?" Lu Qingyun seemed to be very dissatisfied with the two.

Lu Feiyuan also felt that these two people were a little inexplicable, their cousins and sisters could easily get together for a meal, why did they have to be targeted by these two people?

Feng Jiuqing didn't have the slightest consciousness, so he sat down and said, "This king is on a whim today, and he suddenly wants to try the dishes of Tianyi Pavilion!" ”

"Then you can go to the next door and eat by yourself, no one cares about you!" Lu Qingyun didn't give him face.

Zeng Mingxi also lifted the hem of his clothes, sat down elegantly, and said: "Brother Qingyun is reasonable, anyway, who would dare to stop his master from eating!" ”

Lu Qingyun looked at Zeng Mingxi's face thickening, and then said: "Mingxi, you are the same, is it possible that the eldest son of the Marquis of Weiyuan doesn't even have the silver to eat a meal?" I have to follow it! ”

Feng Jiuqing and Zeng Mingxi did not change their faces and their hearts did not beat, and they had no intention of leaving, Feng Jiuqing shook the folding fan and said: "It seems that the county lord is the east today, why should Brother Qingyun be so stingy, just if the county lord doesn't mind!" ”

Zeng Mingxi also nodded and said, "Well, the county lord probably won't mind adding two more pairs of chopsticks!" ”

Lu Qingyun was annoyed by the brazen appearance of the two, and wanted to be mean a few more words, but Bai Mujian came out to play a round and said, "Forget it, cousin...... Anyway, I ordered a lot of food, and I didn't care about more people, anyway...... You and His Royal Highness King Xuan, Zeng Gongzi have been in contact from time to time, I can't get it back, are you still afraid that you won't have a chance to eat it back? ”

Lu Qingyun nodded with a smile, glanced at the two of them provocatively, and then said, "What my cousin said is reasonable, then let the guy serve the food!" ”

As soon as a few people sat down, Bai Mujian greeted the mandarin duck and said, "You go and invite the others to eat next door, remember to call His Royal Highness King Xuan and Zeng Gongzi's entourage!" ”

The mandarin duck and the magpie hurriedly responded, and only after thanking the grace did they retreat, Zeng Mingxi had a warm smile on his face, and thanked: "Thank you to the county lord, it seems that the county lord is going to break the fee today, and a table of banquets in Tianyi Pavilion is worth a lot of money!" The prince is too good at business! ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Feng Jiuqing meaningfully, and the provocation in his eyes was very obvious.

Feng Jiuqing quietly took a sip of tea before saying: "It's okay, but for two tables of banquets, this king doesn't care about these little money, since it is the first time the county lord comes to the banquet, this king can cover it all!" ”

"The prince is really generous, why did I come here in the past, and I didn't see you give me a waiver?" Lu Qingyun seemed to be a little dissatisfied and asked.

"Hey, Brother Qingyun, where can we compare with the county lord, now the county lord can be regarded as a royal person, speaking of which, the county lord and Brother Qingyun seem to have to call the prince...... Uncle Huang! Zeng Mingxi didn't know why, and suddenly brought up the issue of seniority.

Lu Qingyun's eyes widened suddenly, patted his head, and said, "Sure enough, grandmother is the prince's cousin, hey...... Rude and rude, you can bear more disrespect for the younger generations! ”

Feng Jiuqing smiled, glanced at Bai Hibiscus, and then asked, "Really?" Is the county lord willing to call this king an uncle? ”

Bai Hibiscus watched the three of them fight for a long time, and even pointed the finger at himself again, and the three of them looked at Bai Hibiscus in unison, as if they were expecting her answer.

Bai Mujin glanced at Lu Feiyuan, and then asked, "Cousin, is this casual friendship with the prince a little suspicious?" ”
