Fast Time Traveling Moon Old Candidate

Chapter 276 The next song (31)

On the way back, both Bai Lu and Du Pingsi agreed not to mention that matter anymore, and let it be forgotten in each other's hearts.

"Did Aunt Du say, what's the purpose of this banquet?" Bai Lu leaned against the window as the carriage swayed, and asked while enjoying the cool breeze blowing from outside the car.

Du Runhan looked up at her, thoughts in his eyes were a little surging, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, obviously in a good mood, "I don't know, mother didn't tell me."

"Cut, hypocrisy." Du Pingsi, who saw through everything, rolled her eyes at Du Runhan, and turned her head away from him.

For some reason, Bai Lu suddenly remembered what Du Pingsi told her in the school about Aunt Du helping Du Runhan propose marriage to her, and her heart suddenly lifted.

If it is really because of this, what should we do?
Bai Lu was a little flustered, she clenched her hands unconsciously, but the Du Mansion was just one street away, and even if she wanted to leave now, it was already too late.

Du Pingsi saw Bai Lu's nervousness, got up and sat next to her, gently held Bai Lu's hand, "Relax, what if my mother just wants to congratulate your parents? After all, being a magistrate is also a task." Congratulations, our family has been neighbors for so many years, it is also appropriate to congratulate."

Bai Lu looked at Du Pingsi with uneasy eyes, but Du Pingsi's words seemed to have some effect. Bai Lu felt that she was not so nervous anymore.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the Du Mansion, and the coachman quickly put the footstool away. Du Runhan got out of the carriage first, and then Du Pingsi also got out of the carriage. Putting her hands together, Bai Lu froze for a moment, put her hand on Du Pingsi's, and got out of the carriage with her support.

"Thank you, Sisi." After standing still, Bai Lu smiled softly at Du Pingsi.

"It's just a small matter, let's go, let's go in~" Du Pingsi smiled, stepped forward to take Bai Lu's arm, and dragged her into the house. The cage was handed to them.

Du Runhan, who was standing by the carriage, retracted his hand a little lonely, shook his empty hand, pursed his lips slightly, feeling a little disappointed, but when he thought of the banquet later, his whole body became bright again, with a smile on his face. Intention to enter Dufu.

Du Pingsi directly dragged Bai Lu to the front hall, the inside was quite lively, Bai Mingxi and his Cao Mumei were already sitting in it, chatting happily with Master Du and Mrs Du, seeing the two little sisters walking in arm in arm, Both Cao Mumei and Mrs. Du rolled their eyes with a smile.

"Sisi, Lulu, you are back." Mrs. Du smiled gently, her voice was extremely gentle, and she looked at Bai Lu with joy in her eyes.

"Aunt Du." Bai Lu shuddered inwardly, but she still managed to smile.

"Where's Han'er? Didn't you come with you?" Mrs. Du found that only the two of them came in, and turned her head to look behind them.

Du Runhan just entered the front hall with his long robe in his hands, with a hint of joy on his face, "Mother, are you looking for me?"

"Okay, okay, everyone is here, let's go to the flower hall." When everyone was here, Mrs. Du stood up and called everyone to go to the flower hall.

Fan Wenfu, who had been sitting by the side without making a sound, stood up and saluted the four elders. He didn't know why, but he looked a little lifeless, "Uncle, aunt, Mrs. Bai, Mrs. Bai, Wen Fu is feeling unwell. Go back to your room first."

Mrs. Du frowned slightly, "If Fu'er is unwell, do you need me to ask a doctor to take a look?"

Fan Wenfu shook his head, "It's just a headache, maybe I'll be fine after a night's rest."

"In that case, go and rest." Master Du was the first to tell Fan Wenfu to leave. After all, there are still important things to say today, and Fan Wenfu must not delay him.

"Wen Fu resigns." Fan Wenfu saluted the four elders again, turned and left.

Bai Lu kept paying attention to Fan Wenfu, but until he left, Fan Wenfu didn't give Bai Lu a single look.

"Let's go." Du Pingsi played with Bai Lu's wrist, and the two went to the flower hall together.

During the entire banquet, Bai Lu was in a state of mind wandering, totally not paying attention to what the four elders were saying, until they asked Bai Lu what she was thinking, and she came back to her senses.

She looked up and found that everyone was looking at her. Mr. Du and Bai Mingxi's eyes were very calm, Mrs. Du was a little excited, Cao Mumei frowned slightly, Du Runhan was a little nervous, and Du Pingsi kept winking at her. .

Bai Lu wanted to ask them what they said just now, but before she could, Du Pingsi spoke up ahead of time, with a bit of coquettish tone in her tone, "Mother, you are biased, I am obviously the same age as Du Runhan, and I never thought of finding a husband for me Family, now I want to marry my best sister to Du Runhan as a wife, it's too partial~"

"Sisi, let's talk about serious business, don't make trouble." Mrs. Du gave Du Pingsi a look, and then looked at Bai Lu again, "Lulu, you can be regarded as Aunt Du who I watched growing up. Han'er, the knowledge in the entire Changhe County is outstanding, not to mention the dignified appearance. Although our Du family is not a particularly prominent family, in this Changhe County, words can have some weight, I don't know Would you like to be our daughter-in-law?"

Bai Lu was stunned, knowing it was one thing, but being asked face to face was another. She looked at her mother in a daze, opened her mouth, but was a little speechless.

"Lu'er is a girl's family after all. How can you say so shamelessly about being a daughter-in-law? Mrs. Du, tell me." Cao Mumei spoke up and answered for Bai Lu, "Besides, it's about marriage. After all, marriage is a major event in life, why don't I talk about it in detail with the master when I go back?"

The smile on Mrs. Du's face faded a lot. She was still practicing Tai Chi and didn't respond face to face. This probably means that she doesn't want to.

"Today's banquet is mainly to congratulate Mrs. Bai for his promotion. Han'er and Lulu's marriage is just a casual mention. Since Mrs. Bai said so, we will wait for the good news." Mrs. Du maintained her expression. The smile on the face, but the tone is much weaker.

The atmosphere at the banquet was a bit delicate. Afterwards, Mrs. Du didn't bring up the matter of getting married, and Cao Mumei naturally didn't bring it up. When the banquet was over, she didn't stay any longer. Go back to the vestibule.

"Mother." Du Runhan handed the tea to Mrs. Du.

"I know what you're going to say." Mrs. Du took the tea and gently blew on the foam on it, "It's not that my mother didn't say anything, but I'm afraid they don't like the Du family. Bring it up again."

After taking a sip of tea, Mrs. Du put down her teacup and waved her hand to Du Runhan, "Okay, I'm tired. If you're fine, you can step back first, Han'er."

Du Runhan wanted to say something more, but seeing Mrs. Du's unhappy face, he didn't speak again.
