First Empress Merchant

Chapter 215 Everything is doomed (1)
Lu Lishi interjected again: "Are you really going? Did my father admit that you and my mother were wrong?"

Is this kind of goofy scene of slashing love only appearing in novels? She really doesn't know whether she should praise her mother for being too smart or too innocent.

Bai Lianrui laughed again, "In order to make your mother give up, I deliberately put on extremely coquettish makeup to meet your father, who would have thought that your father would use an excuse to have something wrong after talking to me two or three times I was curious about leaving, and I didn't know where I was so bold, I chased him up and asked him why he wanted to leave, but he said four words to me, and it was these four words that made me put him on the list from now on. heart."

Lu Lishi had to ask this time: "Which four words?"

Bai Lianrui replied: "He said, 'You are not her', and after saying these four words, he left without looking back."

Lu Lishi was obviously aroused, "But you showed your flaws that day? Also, did you fall in love with my father just because of this sentence?"

Bai Lianwei looked at her in a little surprise, and then asked tentatively: "You...why don't you scold me? It's obvious that my elder sister fell in love with the man first, but I...you don't mind scolding me if you want. "

Lu Lishi shrugged with a smile, "I have no reason to scold you. What's wrong with liking someone? As long as the man I like doesn't change his mind just because another woman likes him, it will be fine. I believe my mother should That's what I thought too."

As soon as these words came out, Bai Lianrui couldn't help holding her hand, "You really are mother and daughter, your mother did say the same thing to you. I was sure I didn't show any flaws that day, except for the different makeup, I Even your mother's injured foot didn't touch the ground once. After we separated and went home, I told your mother about it truthfully. I remember your mother said complacently that it was indeed her favorite. Man, but I just don’t believe in that evil. Another day, I asked your mother to wear the same makeup as mine to meet your father, and I quietly followed behind to watch, but the truth is that the two of them are very happy I spent an afternoon with each other, but it's a pity that I followed behind all afternoon sullenly."

Lu Lishi frowned slightly, "It shouldn't be, since you and my mother are twins, if you didn't deliberately find marks to distinguish them, ordinary people wouldn't recognize who is who?"

Bai Lianrui squeezed her hand as if she had found a confidant, "Who said it wasn't? By the fourth day, your aunt and I wore exactly the same clothes and the same jewelry. In short, we were identical from head to toe. It's exactly the same. Before I went out to meet your father, I carefully observed your mother's tone of voice and facial expressions. After meeting, your father really recognized who he was at a glance. The woman we met at the beginning, no matter how we confuse the audience or change the position, he was able to recognize your mother without any mistakes, which is very impressive. It is precisely because of this, as we get along more and more later, He has always treated me with respect, but he has become more and more fond of your mother, so... I am not afraid of your jokes. At that time, I was a girl in Huaichun after all. Facing such a man, I have no reason to be indifferent, and I don’t care about me How to express to him, hint, and even say that you are willing to marry him with your mother, but he..."

Hearing this, Lu Lishi didn't know what to say, she could only comfort her: "It's a pity that he met my mother first."

Bai Lianwei smiled at him gratefully, then shook her head in disappointment, "No, it's not that I haven't told him that, I said that if the person he met first was me, would everything be all right? It's different, guess what he said?"

Lu Lishi asked cooperatively, "What did you say?"

Bai Lianwei sighed silently, "He said that there is no if in this world, everything is predestined, he was destined to meet your mother first, and he was destined to fall in love with her, then she is the only one he is destined to marry, and only her." Could be her."

Lu Lishi sighed, "Auntie, I really don't know what to say. I can only say that you really didn't like the wrong person. My father is indeed a good man worth entrusting for life."

Bai Lianrui smiled, "You don't need to comfort me, if you can fall in love with such a man, even if I wait for him all my life, I will have no regrets."

Lu Lishi felt that this topic was too trivial, so she changed the subject and said, "Then what happened later? I want to hear about why the Bai family severed ties with my mother so cruelly?"

Hearing this question, the expression on Bai Lianrui's face gradually changed, "I don't know if you know that your father was a poor scholar. He was righteous and made many friends, and those friends were willing to lend him money to prepare a dowry gift to propose marriage. At that time, the head of the Bai family was still your great-grandfather. Seeing that the dowry gift was good, he verbally agreed to the marriage. Let people check your father's identity, and after she found out that your father was a poor scholar with nothing, he regretted the marriage on the spot. Hey, I really don't want to mention these chilling old things again. The Bai family just felt that your father was not good enough for your mother, so they did not agree to this marriage, and your mother wanted to marry her life and death, and even went on a hunger strike to kill herself. Your great-grandfather was so angry that he couldn't get sick. All the resentment and hatred are blamed on your father, and even sued to the Yamen."

Speaking of this, Bai Lianrui paused for a moment before continuing: "The Bai family had a very high status at that time. In order to please the Bai family, the master of the yamen accused your father of a crime indiscriminately, and your father was lost because of this. Not to mention the qualifications for taking the exam, you were sent to a remote area to serve for two years. As for your mother... After hearing the news, she smashed the whole house like crazy, and even shouted that she would go to Beijing to sue the imperial court. He confessed that the family did not distinguish between right and wrong, used power for personal gain, and bullied others too much. Your grandfather was afraid that things would get worse and the Bai family would lose face, so he expelled your mother from the family. Later, your mother will be in your With the help of my father's friend, I dragged my extremely weak body to the place where your father was serving. The two lived together there for two years, and I didn't know who they met during the period. The man said that as long as he and his wife are willing to follow Go to the capital, and he can help them make a fortune, and thus, the two of them finally live a better life gradually, of course, these are all mentioned by your mother in the letters she sent to me later."

Lu Lishi seemed to be secretly adjusting her emotions, and only after a long silence said: "Auntie, believe it or not, the reason why I asked was simply to find out what happened at that time, and now I finally got the answer. That's all. If you want to ask me if I hate the Bai family, I can only say that this is the grievance of the previous generation and has nothing to do with me. As long as the Bai family doesn't continue to bully my orphan and father, I won't care about them Speaking of which, how about you, I feel that your relationship with the Bai family is not very good, may I ask the reason?"
