Chapter 153: A conversation with my sister-in-law
"What's wrong, Guanyin?" Liu Yunmian asked with a smile.
She just wanted to walk over to take a look, but Lu Ci pulled her sleeve.
"What's wrong?" She asked, puzzled.
Lu Ci's eyes flickered, "There's nothing to see over there." β
No, there is a situation.
Looking at his expression, Liu Yunmian knew what he wanted to hide from himself.
However, Guanyin Nu sold Lu Ci.
"Daddy, this is my daddy! Mother, come and see! He shouted excitedly, pointing to the mural on the wall.
Liu Yunmian's curiosity was instantly aroused, and he simply pulled Lu Ci to see it together.
Lu Ci twisted and pinched, like a little daughter-in-law, which made Liu Yunmian feel more and more curious.
She quickly walked over to the mural.
This is a picture of Arhats, more than a dozen powerful Arhats, majestic and inviolable.
It's just that there is no Lu Ci.
"My dad is here, mother, here!" Guanyinu excitedly pointed to a little monk knocking on a wooden fish in the corner of the mural, "Look, is it my father?" β
Liu Yunmian took a closer look.
Ha, don't really say it, which one is not Lu Ci?
Although Lu Ci at that time looked like he was only about ten years old, he already looked like seven or eight points now.
In short, it is instantly recognizable.
It's just that the little monk who knocks on the wooden fish is a little too cute.
Lu Ci blushed, eager to plug Guanyinnu's mouth.
He hates it so much, why did he forget about this stubble?
I knew that I should have gone one level higher.
"At that time, you were staying at Daxiangguo Temple?" Liu Yunmian asked curiously.
"Hmm." Lu Ci said, "My sister begged my brother-in-law to send me here to practice martial arts." β
Avoid people's eyes and ears, so as not to become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of others.
Liu Yunmian said in her heart, Xiao Cheng is not afraid that her younger brother will bathe in the light of the Buddha, concentrate on the Buddha, put down the butcher's knife, and escape into the empty door?
No wonder Lu Ci is so familiar with the temple, maybe he is still everyone's senior brother.
"Your master is a monk?" Liu Yunmian asked.
"Hmm." Lu Ci nodded, "I'll take you back to visit his old man." β
Liu Yunmian let out an "oh", and said in his heart that if he delayed it, he would forget about it.
They only returned home from the temple fair in the afternoon.
Lu Ci asked Liu Yunmian to go with him to see Xiao Cheng.
Liu Yunmian didn't think much about it, just went to ask Xiao Cheng for a pulse.
As a result, I found out that it was not the same thing at all.
Xiao Cheng gave her a gift generously, and directly gave her a box of jewelry, which was heavy.
Xiao Ji also took her hand and asked her about the situation at home in a soft voice, just like ...... Mother-in-law is the same.
After Liu Yunmian was briefly surprised, he responded to it in a certain way.
However, when she heard Xiao Cheng talk about marriage, her face still changed.
Xiao Xi, even want her to marry Lu Ci?
Shouldn't she have smashed the silver on herself, and said nobly and coldly, "Give you 10,000 taels of silver, and leave my brother"?
Xiao Cheng was stunned when she saw her, and thought she was shy, so she hurriedly said: "Look at me, I'm sick and stupid, and I actually talked to you about this matter." When your father and brother come......"
"I'll come forward." Next to the county king road.
Xiao Ji smiled slightly stiff on her face, and then nodded and said, "The county king and I will naturally handle the marriage for you." β
Liu Yunmian looked at Lu Ci for help.
Lu Ci said: "You don't have to be formal in front of your sister, you just have to say what you want." β
Liu Yunmian: "......"
Xiao Cheng saw that her face was embarrassed, so she said, "Ah Heng, you and your brother-in-law go out first, and Yun Mian and I will talk to each other alone for a while." β
Leave the king of the county and get up and go out.
Lu Ci nodded to Liu Yunmian and went out after him.
Xiao Ji took Liu Yunmian's hand and said, "Yunmian, maybe you don't believe it, but my heart is full of gratitude to you." Not just because you saved me, but also because you were there for Ah Yan when he was in the most difficult time. β
Liu Yunmian said: "The princess of the county is polite, without me, you will not have to worry about your life; As for me and ...... Master Hou, that was an accident. β
She paused and continued: "Princess Jun, I'll be honest with you, I'm not a delicate person with a twist and turn, I like to go straight...... My marriage with Hou Ye was originally just an expedient measure, I didn't take it seriously, let alone have the heart to climb. There is no husband and wife between us......"
Xiao Cheng looked at her in surprise, completely unexpecting that she would break up her relationship with her brother.
Xiao Cheng thought that Liu Yunmian would be worried that she would be abandoned, so she deliberately gave her a reassuring pill, but she didn't expect Liu Yunmian to react like this.
"I will make a confession to the princess of the county, and my family and I will not be entangled, and we will not mention the original matter."
When Liu Yunmian said this, his eyes were sincere and his attitude was sincere.
"Qi Da is not a coincidence, I know. So after entering Beijing, I only thought about going to see Guanyinnu, but I didn't think about pestering Hou Ye. β
When she mentioned the name of Guanyin slave, she deliberately looked at Xiao Shen's eyes.
From Xiao Hui's eyes, she saw a flash of disgust, and some other complicated feelings.
Xiao Hui, I really don't like Guanyin slaves.
However, isn't that the child she conceived in October and worked so hard to give birth?
Oh yes, she was taking child-avoiding pills back then.
Does she think that the birth of Guanyin Nu is not expected?
Why?
Liu Yunmian seemed to have something in her mind, but it was too fast, and she couldn't catch it at all.
"I bought a house by myself immediately after entering Beijing, and I didn't want to trouble Master Hou. I don't even want to meet each other, lest I be mentioned by someone in the future, which is not good for Master Hou. β
Xiao Cheng listened and suddenly smiled.
Liu Yunmian was overwhelmed by her laughter.
Xiao Cheng: This is ...... Laughing angrily?
Xiao Cheng said that no, she really thought it was very interesting.
Her younger brother, who was so good that he was eye-catching, was disliked.
Is it because Liu Yunmian listened to some rumors that were spread falsely?
Not like that.
Liu Yunmian and her younger brother stood together, extremely harmonious, she was not afraid and despised, but more like treating her younger brother as a friend, frank and open.
But when you think about it, there's a sense of intimacy missing.
"Princess Jun, I don't need to go around in circles with you, it's all heart-wrenching." Liu Yunmian smiled calmly, "Master Hou has a sense of responsibility to me. He may have been worried about affecting my reputation, but in the countryside, it is not uncommon for widows to remarry. What's more, I'm just separated and don't have children yet. β
She doesn't have to be responsible for Lu Ci.
The smile on Xiao Hui's face became reluctant.
She was almost certain that Liu Yunmian really didn't have much nostalgia for her younger brother.
Originally, she thought that she could now put her mind at ease and leave with her secret forever......
Now it seems that he can't close his eyes even when he dies.
Liu Yunmian only showed her mentality, but she didn't know that she had saved Xiao Cheng's life by mistake and dispelled her thoughts of suicide.
"Princess Jun, let me tell you one more word that is out of lineβ"
"You say." Xiao Xiao bowed her head, and when she looked at Liu Yunmian again, her eyes became cautious, and she was a little more probing.
