Because of Mrs. Lu's intentions, coupled with Xu Ru's gags and hard-working to please, the atmosphere of the dinner was harmonious and harmonious.

Mrs. Lu certainly benefited from Xu Ru's obedient behavior.

She was looking for a daughter-in-law who was of the same heart as her, and Xu Ru was willing to bother to please her because she put her aunt in his eyes and cared about her.

In this way, I am not afraid that the other party will be misled by Lu Qi after marrying into the Lu family.

So, the candidate for the daughter-in-law still has to come from his own family.

How can outsiders get close to their own family members?

Mrs. Lu was very satisfied, and so was Xu Ru. She could see Mrs. Lu's love for her, so she tried her best to please Mrs. Lu. It would be best for the two families to settle the marriage before they left for Beijing.

Mrs. Lu obviously had the same thoughts as her.

Therefore, every day in the future, Mrs. Lu will try her best to give Lu Qi and Xu Ru a chance to get along.

Seeing the other girls of the Xu family, they were naturally very upset.

Although the two daughters from the eldest house do not want to fight for this marriage, it does not mean that the eldest daughter or the girls from other houses are dissatisfied with this marriage.

You know, although Lu Qi is sitting in a wheelchair, he is really good-looking, and the Lu family is one of the richest families in Tongcheng, so even if they get married, they will not lose face of the Xu family.

Didn't their aunt also marry into the Lu family as the eldest daughter?

It's just that I didn't expect that everyone came to the Lu family together, but Xu Ru wanted to step on the other sisters to show off, and Xu Ru wanted to show filial piety.

But Xu Ru wanted to step on everyone on the first day.

Could it be that Xu Ru is filial to her?Wasn't it because Xu Ru was scheming enough to see the drizzle, so she sent someone to secretly buy oil coats, and when they arrived at Lu's residence, everyone was drenched enough, only her hair and shoes were wet.

Then, while everyone was still cleaning up, I ran to greet my aunt alone.

It seemed that she was the only one who had a conscience and was thinking about her aunt.

Because of this matter, the girl from the Xu family had clashed with Xu Ru many times in private.

Mrs. Lu naturally knew it too, but she didn't pay attention to it. Firstly, Xu Ru was her favorite candidate for a daughter-in-law, and secondly, she also wanted to take the opportunity to see Xu Ru's skill and ability.

If Xu Ru is stepped down, she doesn't mind changing to another daughter-in-law.

At this stage, it is true that she is most optimistic about Xu Ru, but if someone can pull Xu Ru down, she is also happy to see it succeed.After all, they were all her nieces, no matter which one became her daughter-in-law, they were all girls from the Xu family.

Therefore, she let go and watched the Xu family's girls fight among themselves.

Xu Lan was very angry.

"Look at them, don't they still have the demeanor of noble girls from aristocratic families!" Xu Lan complained to Xu Qian.

"Wealth touches people's hearts, and Cousin Lu's appearance is extraordinary, and I heard that Cousin Lu's foot may be cured, so the sisters will naturally not give up easily." Xu Qian said softly.

"I think this is a rumor deliberately released by my aunt." Xu Lan curled her lips, not believing that Lu Qi's foot could be cured.

"Maybe." Xu Qian was noncommittal, but a flash of light quickly flashed in his eyes. ...

Lu Qi has been annoyed enough by Mrs. Lu's arrangements these days.

Especially Xu Ru, because Mrs. Lu looked at her differently, she almost regarded herself as Lu Qi's wife.

Not only do you have to ask about Lu Qi's daily food expenses, but even when Lu Qi is going out, you also have to ask about Lu Qi's whereabouts.

Lu Qi was simply bored, so he lowered his face towards Xu Ru.

In the past, I was polite to Xu Ru because of Madam Lu's face, and dealt with her a little bit, but this Xu Ru is obviously a master of making progress, so if you show her a good face, you don't know how powerful the sky is.

Lu Qi didn't want to argue with the woman, but Xu Ru stepped on his bottom line.

"Cousin Xu, in what capacity are you asking about my whereabouts?" Lu Qi asked bluntly.

It was the first time Xu Ru saw Lu Qi change his face, and his face flushed red from the blunt words, and he was speechless for a while.

"Cousin, I just thought my aunt would be worried..." Xu Ru wanted to use Mrs. Lu as a shield, but was interrupted rudely by Lu Qi.

"I will report it to my mother, so I don't need my cousin to worry about it."

Seeing that Lu Qi refused to enter, Xu Ru had no choice but to leave sadly.

Lu Qi hurriedly left before Mrs. Lu sent someone.

After leaving Lu's mansion, Lu Qi breathed a sigh of relief. He knocked on the wall of the car and asked people to drive the car to Baicao Hall.

When we arrived at Baicao Hall, the carriage didn't stop at the door, but turned around to the side alley.

The carriage stopped in front of a small gate, and when the gatekeeper saw the carriage, he hurriedly sent someone to inform the little owner.

After a while, Bai Heng came out.

When Lu Qi saw Bai Heng, he asked the boy to carry him down, and then pushed the wheelchair into the door.

After entering the door, there is a small courtyard. It turns out that this is the backyard of Baicao Hall. The small door just now is a side door for buying goods. Normally, people are not allowed to enter and exit at will. If Bai Heng did not come to pick him up, Lu Qi would not be able to enter the door.

After the wheelchair entered the room, Bai Heng sent all the servants away, and then Lu Qi stood up, stretched his waist, and sighed, "I'm really suffocating at home these few days."

"Third brother, are you really not letting Mrs. Lu know about your condition?" Bai Heng poured a cup of tea and pushed it in front of Lu Qi.

"Now is not a good time." Lu Qi shook his head.

"I heard that there are many cousins ​​at the third brother's house, won't the third brother take this opportunity to recover, so as to win the favor of the beauties?" Bai Heng raised his eyebrows and said with a slightly sour tone.

"I don't care about the favor of those women." Lu Qi glanced at Bai Heng and said dryly.

Today's Bai Heng has grown up gradually, and shed the immature baby fat. The thirteen or fourteen year old boy is tall and has a gentle and handsome appearance for the first time. Seeing it in Lu Qi's eyes, a strange feeling arises in his heart.

He thought that when he first met Bai Heng, the other party was still a child carved with jade and jade, but he didn't expect that the other party had grown up in the blink of an eye.

Thinking about the days when the two of them shared hardships in the capital, Lu Qi couldn't help feeling a little bit embarrassed.

"Some time ago, there was a letter from the capital." Just as Lu Qi was still sighing in his heart, Bai Heng said suddenly.

"The capital? Is it His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Lu Qi's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that His Highness the Crown Prince wants to call Bai Heng to Beijing again?

"Well, His Royal Highness said that the Holy Majesty has been sick recently, and he wants me to take a look." Bai Heng said.

"Why do you want to go again? Those imperial doctors in the imperial hospital are not good at displaying?" Lu Qi frowned and said with some displeasure.

Thinking of being separated from Bai Heng again, Lu Qi felt uncomfortable, why not... go to Beijing with Bai Heng?

Lu Qi felt more and more that this was a good idea. Not only could he avoid the group of pretentious Xu family girls at home, but he also didn't have to separate from Bai Heng. Besides, didn't His Royal Highness ask him to be a companion?

"Xiao Heng, I'll go with you." Just do what you say, and after Lu Qi left a word of walking along the way, he hurriedly sent someone back to Lu's house to prepare the luggage for going to Beijing.

"Can third brother go away?" Bai Heng glanced at him and snorted coldly.

"Why can't you leave? No one is as important as Xiao Heng." Lu Qi learned without a teacher, and suddenly came a nice flattering word.

Bai Heng's heart trembled when he heard the words, but his expression remained calm. He coughed and said, "Nonsense."

Lu Qi secretly saw that Bai Heng's ears were red, and his heart was beating wildly. He suddenly felt dry mouth, sweated for no reason, and his face was covered with a thin layer of red. .

Bai Heng raised his eyes and saw it, he was startled immediately, and hurriedly said: "Third brother, you look a little strange, sit down quickly and I will feel your pulse."

Lu Qi's face turned redder, with some embarrassment, he cleared his throat, pretending to be calm and said: "Nothing, the room is a bit stuffy, it will be fine later."

Bai Heng was skeptical, but saw that Lu Qi's face gradually returned to its original state, so he didn't say anything.

"Third brother, are you sure you want to go to Beijing with me?" Bai Heng continued the topic just now.

"Yeah, it just so happens that the Lu family's shop in the capital has some problems, so I'll stop by." Lu Qi didn't lie. There was indeed news from the shop in the capital a few days ago, but Lu Qi had already sent a steward to deal with it.

He didn't need to go to this matter in person, but it happened that Bai Heng was going to Beijing, so Lu Qi simply brought this matter up, which could logically go on the road with Bai Heng, and also blocked Mrs. Lu's mouth. ...

Lu Qi was right. When Mrs. Lu heard that he was going to travel far away, she immediately objected.

But regarding the matter of Lu Qi moving out of the shop in the capital, His Royal Highness had said before that he would be a companion. Although he hadn't made a clear order yet, Lu Qi said that he wanted to go to Beijing, and Mrs. Lu really didn't dare to stop him explicitly.

Mrs. Lu didn't dare to stop her, but she didn't give up, so on the day Lu Qi set out, she saw Xu Ru and packed her bags, leading her maids and servants to wait in front of another carriage.

Seeing this, Lu Qi frowned so much that he could kill a fly.

Mrs. Lu turned a blind eye to Lu Qi's face, and said lightly: "Some time ago, there was a letter from the capital, and the third room had something to call Miss Ru back, and Miss Ru was in a hurry to get on the road, just as you are going to Beijing, just drop her off."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Lu Qi to answer and refuse, after stuffing the people to Lu Qi, he urged them to go on the road, then turned around and took them away in a mighty way.

Looking at the back of Mrs. Lu leaving in a hurry, Lu Qi was also helpless.

Turning his head and seeing Xu Ru and his party, Lu Qi was even more helpless.

At this moment, the Bai family's carriage arrived.

Bai Heng's servant, Bai Zhong, saw many people standing in front of the Lu family's gate from a long distance away, and when he arrived, he found that besides the young master of the Lu family, there was actually a girl's family, and that girl's eyes were glued to the young master Lu's body. , I can't see others at all.

After the carriage stopped, Bai Zhong jumped down, walked up to Lu Qi in a few steps, and asked respectfully, "Master Lu, can we go now?"

Lu Qi rubbed his forehead with a headache, and said to Bai Zhong: "Your young master, please get out of the car, something has changed."

Hearing this, Bai Zhong glanced at Xu Ru and the others who were standing aside, understood, and walked back to the car to report softly to the inside.

Bai Heng in the carriage was holding a medical book to pass the time, but after listening to Bai Zhong's report, he put down the medical book and got off the carriage.

Seeing a young man getting off the carriage, Xu Ru's eyes lit up. The young man had red lips and white teeth, and a pair of bright eyes. His appearance was no worse than that of Lu's cousin.

When Bai Heng got out of the car, he saw Xu Ru standing not far away.

His eyes flashed, and he walked up to Lu Qi in a few steps.

Lu Qi whispered: "Xiao Heng, my mother forced her to me, and now I have to take her on the road together."

After hearing this, Bai Heng nodded, with no expression on his face, he turned his head and ordered his servants to carry Lu Qi's luggage into the carriage, and send someone to carry Lu Qi into the carriage by the way.

Xu Ru saw that the servants of the Bai family moved quickly, and quickly settled Lu Qi and others. In a blink of an eye, only she was left standing in front of the door with her maid and servant.

"Girl, if you want to go together, please get in the car quickly." Bai Zhong got the master's signal, and said to Xu Ru.

Xu Ru didn't expect that the good-looking young man just ignored her from the beginning to the end. After talking with Lu Qi and picking Lu Qi into the car, he got into the car without looking back.

She was thinking about how to make a good impression on the other party if her cousin introduced her, but she didn't know that she was ignored at all.

Seeing that the Bai family's carriage was about to leave, Xu Ru stomped her feet and got into the carriage angrily.

After getting in the car, Xu Ru was still a little angry, but she held her temper and asked the servant girl to ask, who is that good-looking boy from?

The maid soon got the answer, it turned out to be Bai Heng, the head of Tongcheng's No. [-] herb family.

"Patriarch? You are already the Patriarch at such a young age?" Xu Ru was a little surprised.

"I heard that the old man of the Bai family is very optimistic about Young Master Bai. Young Master Bai has been taking over the Bai family for a long time." After the servant girl came to Tongcheng, she also had a few friends who had a good time.

These days, from the mouths of those little friends, she has also heard about the deeds of the young master of the Bai family.

Unexpectedly, I saw Young Master Bai himself today.
