Houmen Yixiang

Chapter 213 The next cousin is Xiao Shizi's fiancée's right-hand man

Wu Zhen, Gong Jin and the others in the room let out a long sigh of relief, almost cheering, and finally sent this lunatic away!

At the same time, she swore secretly in her heart that she would never let Lu Xinyan drink alcohol in the future!

Lu Xinyan followed Xiao Yichen for a while, but because she was drunk, her steps were unsteady and she almost fell down.

At the moment of falling, the man in front turned around to support her in time, Lu Xinyan looked at Junyan who was close at hand, and smiled, "Beauty~"

She stretched out her hands to pinch both sides of his face, rubbed them up, down, left, and right, and muttered with a smile, "The beauty is so beautiful, but the skin is a little hard. I guess it's been a long time since I exfoliated. Don't be afraid, the master has an exclusive exfoliation." The formula is gentle and does not hurt the skin, and it will keep you white and smooth after using it, even tenderer than tofu."

Xiao Yichen pulled her hand away with a dark face, and hugged her. Lu Xinyan first exclaimed, then giggled and said, "Fly! Fly, beauty, take me to fly! I want to fly high!"

She patted him restlessly with her hands, and wrinkled her little nose in disgust, "I don't like it, my hands hurt!"

She was struggling to get off the ground, Xiao Yichen hugged her and jumped onto the roof of the General's Mansion, Lu Xinyan poked her head out of his arms in amazement, looking at the lively scene below where the lights were lit up, the cups were intertwined, and people's voices were boiling. He said, "What's going on down there, it's so lively, beauty, let's go and have a look, shall we?"

"Is there anything better down there than a beauty?"

Lu Xinyan looked down, then at Xiao Yichen's face, and said with a smile: "No, it's still beautiful."

Xiao Yichen's complexion finally got better.

Lu Xinyan tilted her head slightly, looked at the first quarter moon in the sky, and shouted, "It's such a beautiful letter D, I want it!"

The first quarter moon is like a capital letter D in English. As an ancient person, Xiao Yichen couldn't understand it, but seeing Lu Xinyan shaking her hands in the air and pointing at the moon in the sky, she probably knew that she wanted the moon.

Wanting the moon is better than wanting my mother, wanting to go home.

Xiao Yichen hugged her resignedly, but Lu Xinyan didn't get what she wanted, so she kept arguing, "I want the D word! I want the D word!"

"I'll help you pick it off!"

"Really? The beauty is so nice~" Lu Xinyan was so happy that she wrapped her arms around his neck.

Xiao Yichen gritted his teeth and pulled her hand away, "Close your eyes first, and when I tell you to open them later, you will be able to see."

Lu Xinyan closed her eyes obediently, "Okay."

Under the moonlight, a crimson figure cut through the night sky, and disappeared under the moonlit night after a few jumps.

Back at Shizi Mansion, Xiao Yichen placed Lu Xinyan on his bed, "Close your eyes obediently, I will pick the moon and call you after a while."

Lu Xinyan hummed lightly, her eyes were obediently closed, but her hand held him tightly.

"Let go obediently, or there will be no brother."

Lu Xinyan forcefully pulled him onto the bed.

She closed her eyes and giggled
He muttered twice, turned over and fell to the side, and suddenly kicked the man, "I want the letter D! Go and take the letter D off for me! Now! Immediately! Go!"

It's okay for Xiao Yichen to be kicked down by her, he was stunned for a moment in disbelief.

Lu Xinyan automatically got into the quilt, wrapped herself into a cocoon, closed her eyes and gave orders like a queen, "Go and pick off the letter D! Go!"

Forget it, don't care about it like a drunk!Xiao Yichen took a few deep breaths, turned and left the room.

He went to the kitchen to find a basin, filled it with water, placed it in the open space in the middle of the yard, found a suitable angle, got up and called Lu Xinyan.

"Zhuzhu, get up and look at the moon."

The person on the bed was motionless and made whirring noises.

Actually... fell asleep!
Xiao Yichen: "..."

Thinking of him accompanying her to do such childish things, it turned out that the little girl was lucky and fell asleep at the last moment.

Xiao Yichen wished he could shake her awake and beat her hard twice, but looking at that little flushed face, how could he be willing?
He lay gently beside her.

Lu Xinyan had a dream. She dreamed that she became Nie Xiaoqian and was captured by the old Heishan demon. The old Heishan demon stretched out her pointed fingers made of black dry long and terrifying long tree trunks, and wrapped her tightly around her, with her black eyes wide open. She wanted to eat her with a big mouth, so she tried to dodge and hide, and escaped the big mouth of the old black mountain demon, but she couldn't break free from the tree trunk that entangled her... Finally, she lowered her head and bit...

Lu Xinyan opened her eyes suddenly.

Looking at the familiar tent, I was momentarily at a loss.

As soon as she turned her head, a stunning handsome face came into view, and at the same time, she almost screamed in shock.

He...he...how is he here?

no no no!She...she...why is she on his bed? !
Lu Xinyan moved slightly, her body... was fine, she was a little relieved, if she was not careful last night, she would not remember it at all, thanks!
But why does your head hurt so much?What the hell happened last night?

Lu Xinyan thought about it carefully, vaguely remembering Gong Jin's big wedding yesterday, Yan Qingruo suggested drinking...

oh!She slapped herself on the head hard, why is this body the same as before, and she can't remember anything after drinking!

I don't know, has that hobby of hands and feet brought along with me?

Lu Xinyan secretly glanced at the man next to her. Apart from a headache, she didn't feel uncomfortable anywhere. It seemed that she fell asleep obediently after drinking alcohol last night.

Well, it must be so!
Don't be guilty, it must be so!

Lu Xinyan wanted to slip out of bed quietly, quietly leave Shizi Mansion, and quietly return to Ankangbo Mansion.

"Don't leave!" The man beside him closed his eyes, and the domineering words escaped from his beautiful crimson lips, "Sleep again."

Lu Xinyan looked at the sky outside the window, the sun was shining brightly, and the birds were singing, "Xiao Shizi, it's getting late."

"I'm sorry! Go to sleep!" The tone was still so domineering, but there was a touch of childish rascal.

Lu Xinyan was speechless, and began to sell miserably, "If my brother finds out, he will scold me."

"Brother knows, scolding is also scolding me, how could he be willing to scold you?"

This is true!Lu Xinyan rolled her eyes, and continued to sell miserably, "I'm hungry, I don't seem to have eaten anything last night."

The man opened his eyes suddenly, but didn't speak.

Lu Xinyan groaned, and said pitifully, "I drank alcohol last night, and I got a headache~"

Being teased and disgusted by her again last night, Xiao Yichen planned to win back this morning, but looking into those wet eyes, he couldn't be cruel.

"I asked someone to prepare hangover soup!"

Lu Xinyan supported her chin with one hand, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Xiao~"

After a while, Xiao Yichen personally brought the water, and Lu Xinyan was already fully dressed and sitting at the table, seeing him carrying the water, she smiled sweetly at him, "Thank you, Prince Xiao!"

Seeing her being so obedient and quiet, Xiao Yichen said softly: "Come wash up quickly, the hangover soup and breakfast will be ready soon."

"Obey!" Lu Xin walked over with a smile on her face.

After washing up, the servants in the kitchen knocked on the door outside, "Master, the hangover soup and breakfast are here."

"Put it outside." He doesn't mind if Lu Xinyan is in his room, but he doesn't want to be seen by others. After all, they are not married yet, and if rumors spread, it will be bad for her.

"Yes, sir."

After the footsteps left, Xiao Yichen brought in the hangover soup and breakfast.

An unpleasant smell came to the nostrils.

Lu Xinyan covered her nose, making up her mind that she would never drink that stuff even if she had a headache.

"Drink it first, and then have breakfast." Xiao Yichen put the hangover soup in front of her.

"Can I eat first? I'm so hungry~" Lu Xinyan said miserably, clutching her stomach.

"No, drink first!" Xiao Yichen could tell at a glance that Lu Xinyan disliked the hangover soup, so he flatly refused.

If one plan fails, another plan will be made, Lu Xinyan blinked, "This hangover soup looks so hot, can I drink half of it?"

Xiao Yichen glanced at her lightly, "I'll try to see if it's hot."

After he finished speaking, he picked it up and took a big sip, Lu Xinyan urged beside him, "Drink more, I can't try a little bit, woo..."

Before he finished speaking, the man who was holding the hangover soup suddenly put his arms around her, as if to feed her.

"Drink it yourself, or should I feed you?"

"I drink it myself, I drink it myself!"

Xiao Yichen handed the bowl to her with some pity, and Lu Xinyan drank it all after taking a few gulps, and after finishing drinking, he turned the bottom of the bowl to show the man flatteringly, "I'm very good, I'm done drinking."

"You are so good, there is a reward!"

Well!Who wants to reward, I hate it!Can you let me eat first, I'm so hungry~ Lu Xinyan couldn't help but slander.

The two were sticky for a long time, and finally finished their breakfast.

"It's getting late, I should go back." Seeing that Xiao Yichen had no intention of sending her back, Lu Xinyan reminded her.

"You're leaving the day after tomorrow." Xiao Yichen looked at her sadly.

Uh... well, she compromises! "Where do you want to go these two days, I will accompany you."

Xiao Yichen's eyes lit up, "Really?"

Lu Xinyan nodded, thinking about not seeing her for almost two months in the future, she also felt a sense of reluctance.

"Then we won't go anywhere for the next two days."

Lu Xinyan almost choked on her saliva: "You...Are you kidding me?"

"How boring it is to stay indoors. Just think about how beautiful the outside world is, with fresh air, beautiful flowers, pretty girls, delicious food..."

Xiao Yichen said quietly again: "You are leaving the day after tomorrow!"

Lu Xinyan's shoulders slumped, "Okay, it's up to you."

"Then go to sleep with me."

"Sleep...sleep?" Is that what she heard?

"Well, sleep!"

Lu Xinyan was persuasive, "Elder Xiao, although we are an unmarried couple, there are some things that are not suitable now..." Not only are they not suitable now, but it is written in the marriage agreement that some things are not suitable after we are married!

Xiao Yichen slightly raised his eyebrows, serious, "What's the matter?"

"Don't ask what you know!"

"I just want you to sleep with me, what are you thinking?"

Lu Xinyan blinked, "Is it really just sleeping with you?"

"If you want to do something, I don't mind."

Lu Xinyan laughed, "Hehe, how could it be? It happened that I didn't sleep well last night, so I need to catch up on sleep now!"

Not to mention that he didn't sleep well, but when he said he didn't sleep well, Xiao Yichen's complexion immediately darkened.

Lu Xinyan saw that his expression changed a few times, his face turned black and he gritted his teeth for a while, and he didn't know where he said something wrong, so he obediently closed his mouth and closed his eyes to express that he really wanted to catch up on sleep.

Xiao Yichen looked at the little woman who was pretending to be dead, and was angry and funny.

-

On March [-]th, when Gong Jin returned home, Li Yu looked like a fool happily, Lu Xinyan saw that his mouth had more than doubled in size, probably because of the joy these few days.

Gong Jin stood beside Li Yu with a blushing face, feeling a bit like a little bird clinging to her.

Seeing Lu Xinyan, Li Yu smiled until his eyes disappeared, and licked his face, "Princess, thank you for your gift, can you give me some more?"

Gong Jin blushed so much that she didn't know what to do, she called out coquettishly, "Li Yu!"

Li Yu flinched half of her body, giggling silly.

Lu Xinyan deliberately teased him, "Fourth Uncle, it's not that I don't want to give it away, it's that Fourth Aunt disagrees! How about this, you get Fourth Aunt to agree, and I will give you eight or ten pieces when I come back from Jianglin."

"Ajin~" Li Yu begged softly immediately, "Good Ajin, I want to see you wear it, okay, promise me, okay?"

Gong Jin's face was about to bleed, and she gave Li Yu a hard look, how could she say such embarrassing words as Lu Xinyan?

"Ajin~ okay, promise me~" Li Yu didn't care, and continued to perform his great work of pestering people.

That sticky appearance made Lu Xinyan's chicken skin drop all over the floor.

Gong Jin was so entangled by him that she could only blushed and nodded slightly.

Li Yu was so happy that he almost jumped up, regardless of the presence of outsiders, hugged Gong Jin and kissed him hard, "Good Ah Jin!"

At this moment, Xiao Yichen appeared out of nowhere, with jealousy all over his body, "What gift?"

"Ah Yu!" Gong Jin was so ashamed that she left to look for Feng Shi, it was fine if Lu Xinyan found out, after all, the gift was given by Lu Xinyan, if Xiao Yichen found out, where would she put her face, how embarrassing it would be!

Li Yu giggled, "Xiao Shizi, Ah Jin won't let me tell, I'm sorry! If you want to know, just ask the princess!"

After speaking, he chased in the direction where Gong Jin left.

"What gift?" Xiao Yichen pressed Lu Xinyan.

"It's just a wedding gift for them," Lu Xinyan swallowed, "it's just a pair of jade pendants."

"A pair of jade pendants?" Do you think he is a fool?

Lu Xinyan rolled her eyes and chattered nonsense, "Well, it is said that the jade pendant has spiritual energy, and the couple who wear it will have a better relationship in the future."

"Really?" Xiao Yichen looked at her suspiciously.

"Yeah." Seeing that he seemed a little convinced, Lu Xinyan quickly changed the subject, "I'm going to see my grandmother and I'm leaving, you stay with me."

-

In the afternoon, Lu Xinyan left the capital with Qingtong Baizhi, and the driver was Ziyan.

The Lin family's grandmother is not in good health, Lu Xinyan brought Bai Zhi together, and wanted to see Mrs. Lin's doctor.

In the evening, the four of them went to a small town closest to the capital, stayed in the most upscale inn in the town, and asked for four rooms.

After dinner, the four of them went back to their rooms.

Lu Xinyan pushed open the door, took off her outer shirt, and prepared to go to bed to rest.

Just lying on the bed and throwing off the quilt, I suddenly felt something was wrong, "Who?"

A big hand covered her lips, and a familiar breath came to her nostrils.

"It's you?" Lu Xinyan's eyes widened, "Why are you here?"

Looking at her surprised face, Xiao Yichen chuckled lightly and said, "The tribute offered by the Jianglin Weaving Bureau was robbed by bandits. The governor of Ganshan asked the imperial court to send troops to suppress the bandits. I will volunteer!"

"When did it happen? Why didn't you tell me?" As soon as she asked, Lu Xinyan suddenly realized, "Did you deliberately hide it from me?"

Deliberately concealing it from her, making her think that we will be separated for two months.

The bastard!Too much!
Seeing that the little man under him began to grind his teeth, Xiao Yichen sat up wisely, "I didn't deliberately hide it from you, the emperor never said that he agreed or disagreed."

"Cut! Do you think I'll believe you?" Lu Xinyan cut.

It seems that this woman is too smart and it is not a good thing!Not easy to cheat!

Xiao Yichen rubbed his nose, "The ones who went to Jianglin this time, besides me, are Mo Bai and Hubu doctor Xie Chui."

"Isn't it suppressing bandits? What are Gongsun Gongzi and the people from the household department going to do?"

"Someone in the court suspects that the Jianglin Weaving Bureau is guarding and stealing, so it is suggested that two groups of people live in Jianglin, one goes to suppress the bandits, and the other goes to check the accounts. The household department is responsible for checking the accounts. As for Mo Bai, the Eldest Princess said that he is not young and should go out. Experienced and practiced, the emperor agreed with him to follow to gain insights."

"Then why don't you leave the army privately?" Lu Xinyan asked.

"There is no large army! The bandits on Heishui Cliff near the river are haunted and haunted. In order not to startle the snakes, this time we went to suppress the bandits in private and did not lead any troops! The emperor gave me an imperial decree that I can mobilize [-] troops from Ganshan at will." Xiao Yichen said: "My whereabouts can't be revealed, I just happened to be with you, pretending to be husband and wife, to deceive others."

"Bah, who is pretending to be a husband and wife with you?" Thinking of this, Lu Xinyan came up, "Go and book a room by yourself, go to bed!"

Xiao Yichen lay down on the bed, "The guest rooms in this inn are already full!"

Lu Xinyan snorted, "Then go to another inn."

Xiao Yichen put his hands behind his head, "It's all full."

"Nonsense, I don't believe it!" Lu Xinyan said.

Uncle Xiao Yichen raised his feet as if, "If you don't believe me, go and ask."

In the middle of the night, of course it is impossible for Lu Xinyan to go to other inns to ask if there are any rooms available!
She stood on the ground with her hands on her hips, and condescendingly stared at the cheating man on the bed, "Then you sleep on the floor for me!"

"Zhuzhu~" Xiao Yichen blinked, trying to confuse someone with her beauty.

Lu Xinyan looked away, expressing her determination not to be confused, "It's useless to shout, I won't soften my heart!"

Xiao Yichen had no choice but to take out the quilt from the cabinet, and spread it on the floor mournfully, making a floor bunk.

After lying down, I murmured from time to time, "The floor is so hard, I must have a backache tomorrow morning."

"Don't talk, just sleep!" Lu Xinyan warned.

Xiao Yichen closed his mouth aggrieved.

After a dreamless night, when she woke up in the morning, Lu Xinyan found that there was an extra person behind her.

"Xiao Yichen!" She roared angrily.

Xiao Yichen opened his eyes, the glazed eyes were clear, with a smile on his brows, "Morning, Zhuzhu~"

Lu Xinyan gritted her teeth, "Why did you come to my bed?"

"Really? Maybe sleepwalking last night!" Xiao Yichen blinked, "I have the habit of sleepwalking in my sleep!"

Lu Xinyan yelled, "Bah! Why didn't I see you two days ago?"

Xiao Yichen was serious, "Really? I don't know either, maybe you didn't find out before, maybe you just discovered it last night!"

Lu Xinyan: ...

I really don't want to talk to this shameless man!

When they went downstairs, Qingtong and Baizhi saw Xiao Yichen coming out of Lu Xinyan's room, with a mouth so big that an egg could be stuffed in it.

"Little Miss"

Qingtong quickly imagined an unsuitable picture in her mind, and looked at Lu Xinyan with gossipy eyes.

Lu Xinyan coughed, "The thing is actually like this, Shizi Xiao happened to be going to Jianglin on business, but his whereabouts must be concealed, so he will be with us on this journey."

Xiao Yichen raised the corners of his lips, cupped his hands and said politely: "My lady, I need you to take care of me this way."

Lu Xinyan smiled at him, "Brother, sister-in-law is at home. If you miss sister-in-law, how about having someone pick her up?"

Pretending to be a couple?Make you think beautifully!

Xiao Yichen twitched and stared at her.

This ghost girl!

Lu Xinyan returned to the city, feeling very good, went downstairs with a smile on her face, turned her head and saw Xiao Yichen was still standing there, and shouted crisply, "Brother, I'm hungry, let's go down and have breakfast."

Qingtong suppressed a smile, "Young master, please. It's getting late, we can go on our way after breakfast."

Xiao Yichen quickly glared at Lu Xinyan: "Little girl, you are cruel!"

He lifted his feet and walked downstairs, when he passed by Lu Xinyan, Lu Xinyan reached out to hold his arm, raised his head and smiled at him like a flower, "Brother, walk slowly, let's go down together."

Being shaken by that bright smiling face, the fire in Xiao Yichen's heart was instantly extinguished.

Downstairs, Qi Fei, Qiu Wuya and Ziyan were already waiting. Seeing them, they said in unison: "Master, miss, good morning."

It seems that all three of them heard the movement just now.

The fire in Xiao Yichen's heart flared up again.

Lu Xinyan quietly approached his ear, "Xiao Shizi, don't be so serious, I didn't call you uncle, it's already good to pretend to be uncle and nephew."

Uncle?Xiao Yichen gritted his teeth, is he that old?But only three years older than her!

I really want to teach her a lesson!
Lu Xinyan stood up straight, and smiled at Yanyan, "Brother, you seem very unhappy, is it because Xiao Taohong was not good last night? Next time you come here, change to a brothel girl. If brother doesn't mind, I will help you choose , fair skin, beautiful breasts and long thighs, you are satisfied!"

After saying this, the guests downstairs turned their eyes to Xiao Yichen one after another, looking at him as a disciple.

Xiao Yichen's whole body was icy cold, he whized and breathed out a few words from between his teeth, "You are very happy, aren't you?"

Seeing that he was really going to get angry, Lu Xinyan stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "Brother, I'm hungry, let's have breakfast."

For the next few days, Lu Xinyan purposely only wanted two rooms every night, either looking for Qingtong to accompany her or Bai Zhi to accompany her, in short, she was determined not to be alone.

Xiao Yichen's face was almost dripping with jealousy.

Lu Xinyan turned a blind eye and said with a smile: "Brother, didn't you sleep well last night? I slept well!"

At this time, Xiao Yichen wished to catch her to a place where no one was around, and punish her severely.

Lu Xinyan would take advantage of people not paying attention, and smile charmingly, "Brother, pay attention to your eyes, we are brother and sister now, don't pretend to be like this! I did this for you."

Xiao Yichen snorted coldly, turned his head and left, thinking that one day he would find a chance to seek justice.

This night, a few people finished their dinner and were about to go back to their room to rest, when suddenly a child ran from outside and rushed straight in front of Lu Xinyan.

At this time, as usual, Xiao Yichen was so angry by Lu Xinyan that he had just walked up the stairs, Qi Fei and Ziyan went to feed the horses, Qiu Wuya hid aside as usual, Qingtong and Bai Zhi whispered something, it might as well be hugged by the child Touched Lu Xinyan's thigh.

"Sister, help! Please help me!" the child shouted.

Xiao Yichen quickly walked behind Lu Xinyan, his expression changed drastically, and he was filled with annoyance.

Fortunately, the one who came just now was a child asking for help. If this person wanted to assassinate Lu Xinyan, wouldn't someone succeed?

Too careless!

In the future, even if you are angry, you can't put her in danger like this!

"Help me, sister!" Holding Lu Xinyan was a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl, dressed in bride's clothes, she looked very beautiful.

With a pointed chin, a pretty nose like ivory, and big watery eyes with tears in them, like black grapes in the mist, dreamy and lovely.

Lu Xinyan was amazed. Coming to this ancient time, this is probably the most beautiful little girl she has ever seen. If she was born in modern times, she would definitely be the most beautiful child star!
People always have a special liking for beautiful things, Lu Xinyan asked softly: "Little sister, what happened?"

The little girl hugged her leg and cried, "Sister, I don't want to marry, please help me~" The tears fell down in clusters like pearls.

Lu Xinyan looked soft-hearted, and was about to ask again, when Xiao Yichen looked at the little girl coldly, his voice was like ice, "let go, who are you?"

The little girl tightly hugged Lu Xinyan's thigh with her hands and refused to let go, crying weakly, "Sister, this bad uncle is so fierce~ woo woo, I'm so scared~"

elder sister?bad uncle?

puff!Although she shouldn't laugh in this situation, Lu Xinyan couldn't help but smile unkindly!
Xiao Yichen's face turned blue, and the little girl was even more frightened. She buried her head in Lu Xinyan's lap, her whole body trembling.

Lu Xinyan stroked her head comfortingly, signaling her not to be afraid, "little sister, what's your name?"

"I...my name is Azhu..." the little girl said weakly.

Arjuna?Qingtong and the others gasped in unison, isn't this Lu Xinyan's previous alias?How could it be such a coincidence! ?
Lu Xinyan's eyes widened in shock, Ah Zhu?Did she meet a fellow villager?

The little girl said again: "Pearl's pearl, Ah Zhu."

It turned out to be Ah Zhu!Qingtong breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Xinyan tentatively said: "Hello, Ah Zhu, his name is Qiao Feng." Pointing at Xiao Yichen.

"Qiao...Hello, Uncle Qiao..." A Zhu said in fear, she turned her head towards Xiao Yichen in the direction of Lu Xinyan's finger, and then quickly turned back.

There was no surprise on his face, only fear.

Lu Xinyan kept staring at her expression, and was a little disappointed to see that her expression did not seem to be fake.

"Then sister, what's your name?" A Zhu quietly asked with her small face up.

"I... My name is Qiao Yan." Lu Xinyan said casually.

"Sister..." Ah Zhu opened her mouth to say something, when suddenly a bright red figure appeared at the door of the inn.

Seeing Ah Zhu, the figure snorted heavily, "Well, Ah Zhu, you really know how to escape, but you actually escaped here! Someone, take me away!"

The man was about fifty years old, with half head of white hair, wrinkled face, a mole on the end of his brow, and a bright red dress on his body, which was very festive. He raised his hand, and a dozen people who looked like servants quickly surrounded him. come over.

Lu Xinyan looked at Ah Zhu who was wearing a bridal attire, and thought, no way, is this asking old cows to eat tender grass?

"Don't! Sister, save me!" Azhu whimpered, "I don't want to marry, sister, help me!"

The old man said fiercely: "It's useless to find a backer! Damn girl, I have to take you back today!"

Azhu cried even harder, Lihua looked pitiful in the rain, "Help me, sister!"

Lu Xinyan wrapped Ah Zhu into her arms, and said politely: "This old man, what's your name? Why did you arrest her?"

The old man had been staring at Ah Zhu fiercely before, for fear that she would run out of his sight again, so he didn't pay much attention to Lu Xinyan and the others. Now when Lu Xinyan made a sound, he looked over, was stunned for a few moments, and said, "How is it, old man?" The title has nothing to do with you girl, the old man advises you not to meddle in your own business!"

Lu Xinyan said: "Old man, you must have a reason for arresting someone, otherwise I will suspect you of abducting and selling girls."

The old man's face darkened, "What nonsense are you talking about? She is my grandson-in-law!"

Granddaughter-in-law?so far so good!

If he dared to say that he was an eighteen-bedroom concubine, she would definitely kick him away!

Ah Zhu cried: "I'm not, sister, I don't want to marry, he forced me to marry! His grandson is going to die of illness..."

The old man was furious when he heard this, "Damn girl, stop talking nonsense! My grandson is doing well! I will be able to hold my great-grandson in a few years! If you dare to curse him again, I won't tear your mouth open!"

Lu Xinyan probably understood now, probably the old man's grandson was seriously ill for a long time and could not be cured for a long time, and wanted to find a young daughter-in-law to make him happy, but Ah Zhu didn't want to run away, so the old man brought someone to chase him, and she happened to meet him.

"Old man, let's see how much this girl is worth. I paid double the price to buy her!" It's not because she is so kind, but because this little girl was born so well, Lu Xinyan couldn't bear it.

The old man sneered, "I don't have a lot of anything, but I have a lot of money! This little girl is the best match for my grandson! When I bought her, I told her that she was going to marry my grandson, and she sold it voluntarily." !"

Ah Zhu hurriedly said: "Back then, I only told me to go to your house to have good food and drink, but I never said that I wanted to get married, let alone marry someone..."

The old man glared, and Ah Zhu was so frightened that he swallowed back the words of the person who was about to die of illness, "When the old man bought you, it was clearly written in black and white that he was going to marry my grandson!"

Azhu pursed her mouth, said in a low voice with red eyes: "I...I can't read..."

The old man sneered, probably because he was too lazy to talk nonsense, "It's useless to say anything, since you have already taken my money and my grandson's token, you will belong to my grandson in this life! Take it away!"

"Sister~" Ah Zhu threw herself into Lu Xinyan's arms, trembling all over.

Lu Xin's face darkened, "Who dares?"

The old man sneered twice, "Girl, I advise you to get out of the way, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"

Lu Xinyan said: "So what if you don't let me go?"

"Do it, grab it!"

With a wave of the old man's hand, a dozen young men rolled up their sleeves and were about to rush forward.

But before he even took half a step, he fell to the ground in a blink of an eye, whimpering.

The old man looked in disbelief at the boy who fell to the ground and howled. How many of these dozen or so people were skilled guards in the mansion, and they were knocked down in the blink of an eye?And he didn't even see how he made the move!
The old man knew that this was a hard stubble, and he knew in his heart that he should be a hero, so he immediately gave up and left, but he was unwilling to think about his grandson lying on the bed who was fascinated by Ah Zhu.

His dim eyes flickered slightly, quickly thinking about countermeasures.

His own status is not low and his family is rich, but he has no official or job position. The other party looks good and their manners are not vulgar, and their conversation and voice are not like local people...

The old man arched his hands and said in a respectful tone, "Everyone, are you from the capital?"

Lu Xinyan didn't hide it from him, "Yes!"

The old man said: "Then everyone must have heard of the Jingcheng State Duke's Mansion!"

Lu Xinyan was stunned for a moment, and the others all opened their mouths.

The old man took a panoramic view of the shocking expressions of several people, and said quite proudly: "I have a distant cousin, named Ziyan, who is currently serving under the fiancee of Xiao Shizi's fiancee in the Duke of Zhen's mansion! Don't embarrass this old man!"

Lu Xinyan couldn't help coughing, and looked at Xiao Yichen who had a dark face beside him.

Qing Tong and Bai Zhi looked at each other, their expressions were very delicate.

The old man thought he had shocked a few people, and his expression became more and more haughty, "I'm bothering you all! Come, bring Ah Zhu back."

Ah Zhu grabbed Lu Xinyan's sleeve and did not let go, sobbing, "Sister, please help me, I am willing to be your slave..."

Seeing that the two servants came forward to take Ah Zhu away, Lu Xinyan suddenly said: "Old man, please wait a moment!"

"Girl, I advise you not to meddle in your own business!" The old man snorted coldly, "I heard that Prince Xiao dotes on his fiancée very much, and his fiancée is very protective..."

Lu Xinyan smiled slightly, and interrupted: "Old man, I happen to know Xiao Shizi's fiancée. Before I went out to play, I borrowed someone from her, who seems to be called Ziyan. Since the old man knows him, it's just right, Qingtong, call him Come, meet the old man."

old man: ...

"Yes, Miss." Qingtong suppressed a smile and went to call Ziyan.

Ziyan came soon, "Miss..."

Lu Xinyan said: "Old man, Ziyan is here, take a look, is he your distant cousin?"

The expression on the old man's face was extremely exciting, like an overturned palette, he stared blankly at Ziyan, "Where are you from? Who is your father?"

Ziyan cupped his hands and said, "My father, Wu Zhong, from Meihua Village, Xiawu Town, passed away five years ago! I don't know, old man..."

When the old man heard this, his expression was shocked.

Then, he made an action that no one expected.

He ran away.

Seeing that their master ran away without saying hello, more than a dozen young servants ran out of the inn with their faces covered, "Master, wait a minute!"

What a shame!

Lu Xinyan and the others were stunned and speechless for a while.

After a while, she coughed, "Ziyan, do you know that old man?"

Ziyan said: "I have left home since I was a child. Many people in my clan only know the name and taboo, but have never seen it."

"The old man ran away like this, there should be no doubt that he is a member of your clan."

Ziyan said guiltily: "Miss, after I entered Linlang Pavilion, I was afraid that my mother at home would be worried, so I sent a letter to tell her. I didn't expect that someone would use the name of Miss to bully the people. I..."

"This matter has nothing to do with you." Lu Xinyan understands very well, family letters always report good news but not bad news. Ziyan's mother knows that her son is doing well, and when she is happy, she can't help showing off her son to the tribe. This is a perfectly normal thing, but it is not Thinking of being taken advantage of by someone with a heart.

"Sister, thank you." Azhu's dark eyes seemed to be able to speak, exuding a moving light, "If I hadn't met my sister, I would have had to marry that sick child, and I might have become a widow soon Sister is my reborn parent, please accept my worship!"

After she finished speaking, she was about to kneel down and kowtow to Lu Xinyan, but Lu Xinyan stopped her, "Azhu, where is your home? I'll send you back home!"

Ah Zhu's face turned pale, tears filled her beautiful big eyes, "Sister, I have no relatives."

Xiao Yichen, who had been watching coldly from the sidelines, had his glazed eyes turn cold, "Little girl, you have a ruddy complexion and no calluses on your hands. You can see that you have grown up pampered! Tell me, did you deliberately act with the old man just now to get close to us?"

"Sister, Uncle Qiao is so fierce, I didn't lie to you, I really didn't lie to you." Ah Zhu cried.

On the one hand was a certain uncle who was staring at her, and on the other was the little beauty who was crying so hard that his heart broke. Lu Xinyan had a headache, "Azhu, tell me the truth, why did you appear here?"

Azhu cried and said: "I really have no relatives. My mother died when I was young. My father married a stepmother. The stepmother wanted to give me to a 60-year-old man as a concubine. In order to help I don't want her younger brother to seek a future, but my father obeys my stepmother in everything, so I had no choice but to sneak out."

Lu Xinyan asked: "Then what about your grandfather's house?"

"I came here this time to take refuge in my grandparents' family. I wanted my uncle to help me make the decision. My uncle promised nicely that he would help me talk to my father, but when I turned around, I asked my aunt to write a letter to my stepmother, saying that I would coax her." Stop me and tell her to send someone to catch me back quickly, so I had to run away again! But I ran out of money, and I heard that someone wanted to buy a maid. I thought I would rather be a maid than a 60-year-old man’s little Concubine, I just want to sell myself as a maidservant!

Who knows... who knows, they didn't want to buy a maid at all, they wanted to buy a daughter-in-law for a young master who was about to die of illness!I don't want to, they locked me up, so I pretended to agree, let them relax their vigilance, found an opportunity to run away on the wedding day, and was chased for two days..."

Azhu cried and begged: "Sister, don't send me back, if I go back, my stepmother will definitely send me out to be a concubine, to help her younger brother find a future!"

Qingtong was heartbroken when she heard it. In this world, it is very common for a woman who is unable to protect herself and is born exceptionally beautiful to be sent around like goods. When she was traveling with her seniors, she saw Quite a few, very angry, but powerless!

She couldn't help pleading for A Zhu: "Miss, why don't you keep A Zhu, I'll watch her."

A Zhu obviously doesn't know kung fu, no matter what she said is true or not, with her watching, A Zhu can't make troubles even if she wants to.

And if what Ah Zhu said is true, it can be regarded as saving the life of an innocent girl.

Azhu's eyes lit up, and she begged: "Sister, please leave me, I can do everything, I promise to be obedient and good, eat less and work more, I will never cause you any trouble!"

"No!" Xiao Yichen flatly refused, he couldn't leave any uncertainties by Lu Xinyan's side!

Lu Xinyan looked at the two of them, in a dilemma.

She wanted to keep Azhu, but for some reason, she thought of Xiaohe just now, Xiaohe must be very sad now, but she can't be by her side to comfort her, and then facing Azhu, that kind of regret was naturally transferred to Feeling pity for Ah Zhu.

Of course, there may be other reasons, anyway, Lu Xinyan wanted to keep Ah Zhu.

But Xiao Yichen disagreed, she knew the reason for his disagreement, he didn't want her to encounter any danger, so she couldn't ignore his opinion!

Lu Xinyan thought for a while, rolled her eyes, walked in front of Xiao Yichen, leaned close to his ear, and whispered: "I will sleep alone tonight, so I won't let Qingtong Baizhi accompany me."

He looked at her with deep eyes, and actually used this method to get him to agree to keep Ah Zhu! ?

This thought made me feel even more sour, but I was reluctant to give up the rare opportunity to get along with each other, so I narrowed my eyes, "What you say is what you say!"

Lu Xinyan smiled and said, "Of course."

Turn around and tell Qingtong, "Qingtong, go ask for more rooms, you will accompany Ahzhu tonight..."

"Sister," Azhu interrupted timidly by raising her hand, her delicate appearance made her very cute, "Can I sleep in a room alone? It doesn't matter if I don't go to the room."

"Why?" Lu Xinyan asked.

Azhu muttered: "When I was at home, the maid sent by my stepmother would always secretly pinch my arms and neck in the middle of the night, so I don't like people in the room."

"Okay then," Lu Xinyan accepted the explanation, "you share one room, Qingtong and Bai Zhi, you can sleep in one room, and you can go to the room if you want more, you don't need to accompany me tonight."

"Yes, Miss." Qingtong winked. Although Lu Xinyan spoke in a low voice just now, she still heard her with sharp ears.

Lu Xinyan acted as if she didn't see her banter, "Let's all go to rest."

"Goodbye, sister, goodbye, Uncle Qiao." Azhu waved her little hand.

Sister, Uncle Joe?The veins on Xiao Yichen's forehead were throbbing.

This little girl, did she do it on purpose? !

Lu Xinyan coughed, and said softly: "Azhu, you can call my sister, but this one is my sister's brother, you should call him Brother Qiao, otherwise your generation will be confused."

Ah Zhu glanced at Xiao Yichen with her big beautiful eyes in fear, she lowered her head and said nothing.

I can't tell that this little girl has a bit of a temper!
Lu Xinyan laughed, "Okay, let's all go to rest."
