Fast Time Traveling Moon Old Candidate

Chapter 66 This killer is not too cold (17)

After leaving the hall, Bai Lu carried the corner of her skirt and walked along the stone road to the turret where she lived.

"Miss Bai." When passing the garden, a clear voice stopped her.

Qiu Maodian came out of the corner pavilion in the garden, with a modest smile on his fair, bookish face, and with a distance of a rockery of flowers from Bai Lu, he held a folding fan and saluted.

"I've met Mr. Qiu." Although she didn't have a good impression of this surnamed Qiu, Bai Lu returned the gift with a smile on her face.

"Where is Miss Bai going?" Qiu Maodian stood in place, keeping a distance between the two of them, to avoid gossiping after being seen.

"The guest room in the east wing is still some distance away from the garden. It's rare that Mr. Qiu has the temperament to travel so far to enjoy the flowers." Bai Lu didn't answer his question directly.

"When Rili and Uncle Bai visited the mansion garden, they fell in love with the garden immediately. It was inconvenient to stay for a long time, and I dared to take a look again after bidding farewell to uncle in the hall." Qiu Maodian was extremely sincere in both expression and eyes .

"Since that's the case, Mr. Qiu, please do what you want." Bai Lu didn't want to continue entanglement with him, she nodded slightly in salute, and turned to leave.

"Miss Bai, wait a moment!" Qiu Maodian hurriedly took two steps forward, as if he didn't want Bai Lu to leave just like that, and called him.

Bai Lu frowned slightly, feeling a little displeased with Qiu Maodian calling her to stop, but she still turned around, "Mr. Qiu, what else is there?"

"I'm here, I'm here..." Qiu Maodian seemed very nervous, his fair face was still blushing, and the veins in the hand holding the folding fan began to bulge.

Bai Lu just looked at him, but after waiting for a while, she couldn't wait for the second half of his sentence. She pursed her lips slightly and said, "If nothing happens to Mr. Qiu, I will leave first."

"Wait!" Seeing that Bai Lu was about to turn around, Qiu Maodian immediately asked, "Would you be lucky enough to enjoy the scenery of the garden with the girl?"

Bai Lu was taken aback by his impolite request, and then she thought of the marriage contract that her father mentioned in the hall just now, and guessed in her mind the reason for this person's visit this time. Nine.She lowered her eyes to avoid the other party's gaze, and raised her head after two breaths, with the same smile on her face, "Of course, after the little girl arranges the details of the flower viewing banquet, I will send someone to inform Mr. Qiu. "

He probably didn't expect that Bai Lu would use an excuse like a flower viewing party to excuse her. Qiu Maodian didn't react for a moment and just stood there in a daze.Bai Lu took advantage of his stunned moment and bowed slightly, then turned around and left the garden with long strides.

Returning to her turret as quickly as possible, a maidservant had already prepared the bathing soup and told Bai Lu that a message had been passed in the front yard to ask Bai Lu to take a bath and change clothes before going to the Flower Hall to have dinner together.

By the time Bai Lu finished washing and changing, it was already the beginning of the day. In order to avoid the situation of being stopped by someone in the garden just now, she deliberately brought a maid out from the turret, and walked in front of her, holding a lantern to light the way.

Simply this time, nothing went wrong on the road, until the entrance of the flower hall, except for the servant girl, I didn't meet anyone else along the way.

"In the afternoon, I heard the news that Lu'er returned home today. Speaking of it, I haven't seen him for many years, so I came here to visit my eldest brother and take a look at my niece, whom I haven't seen for a long time." Min Yao sat at the bottom right of Bai Jiazhi, Said while toasting.

"Sister Lan, I've heard all about it in Sichuan. There is a young lady who looks like a fairy in the Bai family in Hangzhou. I haven't seen her for so many years. I'm really curious about what Lu'er looks like when she is born." Meng Meng sat On Shi Lan's right hand, holding Shi Lan's hand, smiling all over his face.

Before stepping into the flower hall, the woman's sixth sense told Bai Lu that something bad might happen next, sure enough!When she walked into the flower hall, she saw Bai Jiazhi and Shi Lan sitting on the main seats, Min Yao and Meng Meng sitting next to them respectively, and Min Ruibo and Qiu Maodian sitting next to Min Yao and Meng Meng. Looking at her with both eyes, even Bai Lu couldn't help swallowing.

But everyone has already entered the flower hall, and there is no way to leave, so Bai Lu still walked to the table facing six sets of unusually enthusiastic eyes, and bowed to the elders to salute, "My daughter greets my father, and my mother." Good morning, my lord."

It's been a while since Shi Lan had seen her flowery girl, so she hurriedly said, "Get up, get up! Lu'er, this is your Uncle Min, Aunt Meng, and Brother Ruibo. I moved to Shuzhong before, and this is the first time I have returned to Hangzhou, do you remember them?"

Bai Lu got up, nodded and smiled at them again, "I've met my uncle and aunt."

Meng Meng scanned Bai Lu up and down with her clear eyes, and the smile on her face became brighter every second. Then she stood up, walked in front of Bai Lu, and held her hand, "My niece, let my aunt take a good look at it Look! The rumors are right, Lu'er is really beautiful."

Bai Lu was so embarrassed, she didn't know what to do, so she put on a shy smile in response to the situation, and then slightly lowered her head, "Auntie was joking."

Meng Meng looked at Bai Lu several times, then let go of her hand contentedly, and returned to her position just now.

"Lu'er, sit down first." Bai Jiazhi sat on the main seat, lifted his chin to Bai Lu, and then told the maidservant who was waiting beside him, "Everyone is here, let's start the table."

Bai Lu took a look, and there was only the only seat left between Min Ruibo and Qiu Maodian on the whole table. Bai Lu had a vague premonition in her heart, a drop of cold sweat ran across her forehead, and she bit the bullet and sat on that seat. .

"Miss Bai, we meet again." As soon as he sat down, Qiu Maodian greeted Bai Lu with his signature elegant smile.

"Young Master Qiu is well." Bai Lu replied to Qiu Maodian with a very formulaic smile on her face, then turned her head and lowered her head to look at the edge of the table, unwilling to take care of him any more.

"Sister Lu'er, long time no see, how are you?" Min Ruibo picked up the teapot on the table, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Bai Lu, although he hadn't seen her for four years, his tone was still familiar.

"Lu'er is studying at the White Horse Academy, and everything is fine. How has Brother Ruibo been all these years?" Min Ruibo was the elder brother who grew up with him, so when Bai Lu talked to him, her tone became intimate unconsciously, her face The smile on the face is also sweet from the heart.

"As long as sister Lu'er is well." Min Ruibo couldn't help but feel happy when he noticed Bai Lu's completely different attitudes towards Qiu Maodian and himself.

It can be said that Bai Lu's attitude can be said to be clear at a glance who is close to whom and whom she is distant from.

The four adults present looked at the interaction between the three children, exchanged glances with each other, and smiled at each other, probably thinking about it in their hearts. After the meal was over, they would confirm Bai Lu's attitude face to face. The marriage is basically settled.
