Baifu, the courtyard is deep, and the tall sycamore wood in the courtyard isolates most of the cold wind, but the whole courtyard is even more lonely.

The gracefully dressed Madame Bai walked slowly through the corridor, and there was no joy on her well-maintained and clean face, and the maid next to her was holding half a moldy baked cake in her hand, her eyes full of incomprehensible emotions.

She knew that Madame loved to be clean, and this baked cake looked like it was a few years old, which made her a little unbearable.

......

Ji Que sat in the hall of Chen's mansion, looked at the elegantly arranged furniture and furnishings in the hall, and sighed again that the rich family was so good.

Yes, he hadn't touched these things much, and he didn't know much about them, but they were expensive at first glance.

Giving up this marriage contract means giving up a cold rich woman.

Ji Que felt a little pity, but it was not too pity.

Now he's more nervous.

It is the first time to withdraw from the marriage, and this is the first time that the elders said that the divorce is the first of the first.

This is a feeling of being called to the office by a teacher in a previous life to talk about the problem of early love.

As the light and shadow at the door changed, a graceful lady walked in with a maid.

Judging from the other party's clothing and temperament alone, this should be Mrs. Bai, the hostess of the White Mansion.

He quickly stood up and saluted, appearing very polite.

If the white girl is her own child, judging from her mother's appearance, there is a high probability that she is a beauty.

Madame Bai smiled gently and slowly sat down on the main seat.

Well, the kid at least looks a lot better than she thought she would.

The half of the moldy baked cake was placed on the table next to it by the maid, and when Ji Que saw this, he just wanted to take out the marriage contract letter in his arms, but Mrs. Bai stretched out her hand and said, "Virtuous nephew, this is not in a hurry." ”

Ji Que sat down and did not continue.

Although he is not a relative, the other party is always an elder, or a good-looking elder, as a guest, he really has to look at the host's arrangement first.

Madame Bai picked up the teacup, glanced at the half of the baked cake, didn't drink it, and said, "Virtuous nephew, how long will it take to get to Tianren City?" ”

Ji Que replied: "It's just dawn. ”

Mrs. Bai nodded and said, "The journey is tiring, then you should take a good rest, and then go around, the lanterns of the Qing Canal are beautiful, and the scenery of Yuhuayan is also good." ”

Ji Que responded: "Thank you Madame for reminding me, the juniors will do this after they are busy with business." ”

Madam Bai raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Actually, there is no need to be so anxious about this matter, after all, it is not a trivial matter." The old man received the grace of your old man back then, and if you want me to remember it, we naturally dare not forget it. It's just a matter of marriage, and you can't be too hasty. ”

Ji Xiao nodded and said, "That's true." ”

Mrs. Chen said: "Lingshuang is not here, this matter has to be slow. ”

Ji Que hurriedly said: "Forgive the juniors for daring to ask when Miss Bai will return home?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the snarky-looking maid next to her couldn't help but roll her eyes quietly.

This is too anxious, right?

Madame Bai remained silent, but she already had some prejudices in her heart.

This young man is good-looking, but after all, he came from a small place, thinking that he could easily marry her daughter and live a completely different rich life with half a baked cake.

I was a little anxious, but understandable.

Her face became a little colder, and she said: "My father has left, although my lord is no longer an official, he is not too big or small, and he pays great attention to the character of the people in the house." The first time you and I met, I didn't know each other, I heard that you are a showman, and you want to continue to gain fame? ”

Ji Que replied: "Actually, it's not ......"

Madame Bai raised her eyebrows slightly, and said in a little surprise: "You have been lifted?" ”

Ji Que said seriously: "Actually, the juniors didn't get the show this year......"

It's really a pot that can't be opened.

Hearing this, the maid next to her laughed out loud.

is not even a showman, so anxious Miss Gao Pan.

Madame Bai glanced at the maid coldly, and the maid quickly shut up, not daring to make a mistake.

At this time, Madame Bai muttered: "Actually, the virtuous nephew doesn't have to mind, the path of studying to gain fame is actually not the only choice, and it can even be said that it is not the best choice."

Now that the court has long had a tendency to emphasize martial arts over literature, Brother Lingshuang is only five years older than you, and when he went to the frontier, he has already become a thousand households with his own efforts.

The Bai family has a son and two daughters, and Brother Lingshuang didn't say anything, so he didn't lose his lord's face. The two daughters are even more competitive, and the younger sister Lu'er is highly talented, and she has already been favored by the Yunxue Sect, and she will become a cultivator when she is older. As for my sister Lingshuang, you should have heard that she is ranked sixth on the Qingyu list, and her fame is even greater than that of the master......"

Hearing that these families are short and long, Ji Que has the illusion of standing on the playground in the scorching sun in his previous life, and the principal only talks about three points.

In the eyes of the maid, he was a little like a pin, so the maid couldn't help but quietly purse her mouth.

How can there be so many pie-in-the-sky good things in this world, and even if there is, not everyone can catch it.

As the subordinate who watched his own young lady surprise everyone, this lady's personal maid has always been proud of the eldest lady, and knows the weight of the eldest lady in the hearts of the lord and the lady.

After learning that the young lady had such an inexplicable marriage contract, the maid's first reaction was that it was unfair.

How could a young lady marry an ordinary person.

From beginning to end, he was very repulsive to the rumored marriage partner of the young lady, that is, Ji Que.

When I saw it today, I learned that this young man came from the countryside, not to mention, he didn't even get into Xiucai, which deepened this idea.

Ji Que just wanted to open his mouth to say it, but as a result, Madam Bai spoke as if she didn't need to breathe, and continued to add: "Nephew Li Xian, you are not familiar with Tianren City, and I am afraid that you don't know much about cultivation.

Elders need to be respected, but the decisions made by the deceased do not have to be accepted in their entirety, and our descendants need to deal with them in a more appropriate way.

You are new to the city, you may not see very clearly in some aspects, my opinion and the master's opinion is that you can get acquainted with the city for a period of time, and we can send you to the military department through a certain relationship, so that you can have the same starting point as Brother Lingshuang back then, if you are really a malleable talent, a good man, not only your blessing, but also the blessing of the court.

At that time, Luer and we will get to know you better, and it will be the best time to talk about this marriage contract when the time comes, don't you think? ”

Hear "What do you think?" After these words, Ji Que's eyes, which had lost their lustre, became bright again.

Oh my mom, it's finally over, it's time for me to speak?

Ji Que wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "That, aunt, in fact, you don't have to be so troublesome." ”

"Huh?"

"Actually, I'm here to get out of the marriage."

Madame White: "?????"

Maiden: "?????"
