The second lady of the Zhenguo Mansion sighed, and ordered the male guests who had come to pay their respects to rest in the side hall for the time being, and asked the young ladies of the Eldest Princess's Mansion to avoid the small garden. This is also a custom, the male guests come in to pay homage, because they are all juniors, and the ladies are there, but the young girls have to go to the small garden, on one side to avoid suspicion, and on the other hand to relax. After all, young girls still love to play.

So the male guests don't know the reason, although there are also some rumors that there are not long-eyed guests who have angered the eldest princess this year, but since they are willing to see King Duan, they probably are not too angry, right? So many people searched for their relatives in the parlor, and those whose relatives were in the small garden according to their rank had to withdraw again.

Lu Xiao found his mother in this way, Li looked at her with a smile, it seemed that he was very satisfied with seeing people, Lu Xiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, every time he thought that Zhong Xiaoxin had arrested Zhang Chungong and wanted to discuss the posture with Chi Si in front of him, he deeply felt that he had done something wrong, he knew that Li's family, he was born in a scholarly family, and he regarded a woman's Joan of Arc as more important than his life, but he really couldn't regret it, except for Zhong Xiaoxin in this world, I was afraid that there would never be a woman with normal thinking who understood his situation and was willing to help him。

Or maybe there is, but he is almost 23 years old, and he doesn't have time to look for it slowly, let alone the confidence to find it.

"What does Mother think of the candidate?" Lu Xiao asked.

Lee didn't know what to say. She didn't see Miss Zhong, but the two cousins brought by Mrs. Bai were very good, the Bai family was a hereditary Guogong Mansion in the previous dynasty, and later surrendered to the new dynasty Although it was reduced to a Bofu, it was still reused, the Bai family has been prosperous for a hundred years, and the in-laws in the family have always been upper-class people, and the daughters-in-law they married are all from a scholarly family, and the two cousins from the Bai family today are all family daughters who have fallen because of the change of times, although the scenery is not there, but the upbringing is very good.

Li Shi thought for a while and said: "Although the appearance is not too outstanding, but the character and virtue are excellent, my mother has long said that my Xiao Er must be the best girl in the world." ”

Lu Xiao's eyes widened, "Mother, are you talking about the eldest lady of the Zhong family?" How did he think that he and his mother were not alone.

Li glared at him: "The eldest lady of the Zhong family is just one of the candidates, since she has come here, she is not allowed to have a few more mothers." Don't forget that it was you who nodded and said that you were willing to marry a wife, and of course your mother would choose the best one for you. ”

Lu Xiao has a black line at one end. Just one Zhong Xiaoxin, he has been running back and forth in the past two days, and he has spent almost half of his assets, and the store and real estate are easy to say, but today's saint governs the country, attaches great importance to the law, and it takes a lot of effort to get two sets of fake identities or female households, and he can't afford to raise another candidate, so it's too troublesome to say that women, if Zhong Xiaoxin is really a suitable candidate, and can block gossip for him and the Protectorate Mansion, he won't have anything to do with women if he is killed.

"Mother. Lu Xiao whispered, although the banquet hall is large, and now there are juniors who come to visit people, but Lu Xiao still doesn't want to delay the matter until he goes back in the evening or tomorrow, for fear that there will be extraneous complications. "I nodded, but I am only willing to marry Miss Zhong, you only look at her, don't think about others. If my mother doesn't match, I won't marry at all. ”

"You kid ......" Li wanted to be angry and cry, but he still held back, "Mother knows, if Miss Zhong is a good one, my mother will definitely ask for you to marry when she goes to her house." ”

Lu Xiao nodded, walked and came back, and said, "Mother remembers, she has to do it." ”

Li nodded and said, "I remember." Where are you going?"

Lu Xiao said: "The eldest princess doesn't know why, don't let people in, I'll go back to my father first, if the eldest princess is just a momentary anger, she should be notified later." ”

Li sighed: "Why do you want me to be someone else for you, that Miss Zhong's aunt Bai and her second sister, the two of them didn't know how to enter the main hall of the eldest princess, I heard that the eldest princess was not very angry, and now only called King Duan to see alone." This is still the first room of the Ji'an Hou Mansion, and the upbringing of the second room can also be seen. ”

Lu Xiao's face changed: "What about Miss Zhong? But is she also inside?"

Li complained: "You are only concerned about your Miss Zhong, why don't you ask your mother if I am frightened?"

Lu Xiao smiled, he really wanted to ask the Li family if he was not in the main hall of the eldest princess, why was he frightened?

Li Shi said to the maid ring beside him: "I married a daughter-in-law and forgot my mother, and now Xiao'er has not married a daughter-in-law, so my heart is longing." I don't know when and where he saw this big girl Zhong, what kind of immortal character, why can't he forget it, this big girl of the Zhong family has a bad reputation. "Sisters fight for husbands or something, who in the elite circle doesn't know. But it is precisely because of this incident that Zhong Da has a reputation for self-defeating loyalty, and the Li family will take a fancy to her.

"What's wrong with this?" Yahuan smiled: "The wife who marries is agreeable, and the life is harmonious." ”

But what mother wants her son to have only one wife in his heart. Li said: "That's what I said, but the unmarried daughter has a private ......meeting with a foreign man" In Li's heart, he would never think that his son deliberately paid attention to the girl of which family, and the family was so low, it could only be that the other party intended to seduce.

Yahuan continued to smile: "In the end, the two families are already discussing marriage, and they are not outsiders...... The second son's ability also took a fancy to her, and he must be an excellent character. "The most important thing is that just like Lu Xiao said, as long as he wants Zhong Xiaoxin, others will not want to, what can be done.

However, the more Yahuan said good things about Zhong Xiaoxin, the original intention was to appease the Li family, but the more the Li family felt that Zhong Xiaoxin was not very good. Snorted coldly: "Xiao Er is young, she has seen a beautiful girl, and she has always been in love." But I don't know how to marry a wife and marry a virtuous man, where can the military generals compare to the rules of the scholarly family. ”

The girl whispered and persuaded: "But the second son." ”

Li Shi also said in a low voice: "Born in the world, how can you not start a family...... He couldn't think about it before, but now that he wants to open it and is willing to marry a wife, he should naturally find a good one. I don't know who I'm convincing.

Yahuan looked at Li with some worry in her eyes.

Lu Xiao has refused to marry a wife for so many years, and the beautiful girl ring that Li Shi gave him was all thrown out of the yard where he lived, and there was a person who had the courage to drug him, and he was pinched to death by Lu Xiao himself, Lu Xiao couldn't say it humanely, he had long been in the dust, and serious people were unwilling to marry the girl to him, not to mention that Lu Xiao was not willing to marry a wife, everyone thought that he didn't want to affect other people's families, so in the Xungui circle, Lu Xiao had a good reputation.

Li didn't think so, even if it wasn't humane, a man should marry a wife, in order to have someone around to take care of him, and he couldn't give birth to a child to be able to adopt, so he refused to give up persuading his son. Originally, when Lu Xiao did not agree to marry a wife, the Li family only hoped that he could marry a daughter of a serious family, but now that Lu Xiao agreed, the Bai family sent three candidates at once, and the Li family compared and weighed it, and suddenly felt that Zhong Xiaoxin was not so ideal, after the Zhong family succeeded, for so many years, Zhong Xiaoxin was born and lost his mother, and his reputation was lost, and Lu Xiao, who didn't know what means to seduce, nodded to marry a wife.

has the ability to hook men, but now he can't even touch the door of the eldest princess's mansion, so he doesn't know where to be in a hurry. The Li family had just been robbed by his son, and he was not in a hurry, so he hung it for a while, so that the eldest girl Zhong also knew that the door of the Guogong Mansion was strict.

Bai Qi took the Bai family's Spring Festival flower post, and it was reasonable to drink the banquet in Mei Xuexuan in the Zhenguo Mansion, Songzhu Xuan was where the male guests who took the apricot post were, but Bai Qi had a few classmates here, and he had something in his heart, and when he began to gather at the end of the banquet, he came here and exchanged a few words with his classmates, and the first person looked at bamboo outside Songzhu Xuan. There are not all people around, but apart from a few classmates, not too many people know his identity to pay attention to him.

A little girl hurriedly came over, stuffed an object into Bai Qi's hand, didn't speak, rubbed him over, Bai Qi's eyes widened, it was a note, quietly unfolded, with a line of words written.

Bai Qi saw the location written above and left in a hurry.
