Fast Time Traveling Moon Old Candidate

Chapter 68 This killer is not too cold (19)

Back in her turret, Bai Lu paced back and forth in the room, thinking about the marriage that her mother had mentioned, feeling uncontrollably flustered, always feeling that something would happen in the future.

With such worries, the days passed day by day, and it has been more than half a month since Bai Lu returned home.

"Knock, knock." The door of the study was knocked.

Bai Lu looked at the ledger and responded casually, "Who is it?"

"Sister Lu'er, it's me." Min Ruibo said outside the door.

Bai Lu frowned. Whenever she heard the names of Min Ruibo and Qiu Maodian recently, she would think of her parents planning to arrange a marriage for her, and she couldn't help feeling irritated.

The hand holding the account book tightened slightly, took a few deep breaths, and after suppressing the irritability in my heart, I said, "Come in."

"Squeak." The door was opened, and Min Ruibo walked in.

"Brother Ruibo, what do you want to see Lu'er?" Bai Lu put down the account book in her hand, with a smile on her face, but no emotion in her eyes.

Min Ruibo sat on the chair, and said with a bright smile, "Sister Lu'er, I saw that you have been checking the books in this study since you returned home. The days are too boring, so I specially invited my sister tomorrow Let's swim in the lake together."

Lake tour?I'm afraid the ulterior motives are not in the bar!

Bai Lu's heart moved slightly, then she raised her eyebrows and looked at Min Ruibo, the smile on the corner of her mouth deepened, "Okay, is it just me and brother Ruibo?"

Hearing that Bai Lu agreed to his request for a lake tour, Min Ruibo was overjoyed, "Then we will set off early tomorrow morning, and we will make lunch with fish hanging from the lake. It must taste very delicious. In the afternoon, we can go boating While reciting poems, when the sun goes down, we can go back home together in the sunset."

Bai Lu picked up the ledger again, not paying any attention to what Min Ruibo said there, and responded without soul, "Well, okay, Brother Ruibo, you can arrange it."

"Then I'll go down and make arrangements, sister Lu'er, keep busy with your work."

"Well, brother Ruibo can do what he wants." After speaking, Bai Lu turned a page in the account book in her hand.

Outside the study, a white figure disappeared around the corner before Min Ruibo walked out of the study.

Early the next morning, Bai Lu was dug up from the bed by Shi Lan's personal maid.

"What time is it now? Auntie, why are you here to wash me?" Bai Lu looked outside at the dawning sky, took the hot towel handed over to wipe her face, and then sat in front of the vanity mirror, closed it and let the maid help Comb your own hair.

"Ma'am heard from Mrs. Min that the young miss is going to go on a lake tour with young master Min today, so she specially ordered the servants to come and serve her. Make sure to dress up the young lady beautifully." The maid smoothed Bai Lu's hair with a comb, Said with a smile.

After hearing this, Bai Lu felt troubled, and waved her hands, "Don't dress up too much, just go as usual."

"But Ma'am said..." The maidservant just opened her mouth to refute, when she saw Bai Lu looking at herself from the bronze mirror, she obviously didn't speak, but felt a chill down her back for no reason, so she hurriedly stopped talking, and obediently combed her hair with her head down.

Bai Lu withdrew her gaze, covered her mouth and yawned, then closed her eyes and fell asleep, letting her maid comb her hair and make up.

I don't know how long it took, but Bai Lu was gently pushed by someone, and then she slowly opened her eyes. The sleepy eyes with a touch of rouge instantly took away the girl's unique charming feeling. The maid on the side took all the breath.

"Ha." Bai Lu couldn't help but raised her hand to cover her mouth and yawned again, then looked at herself in the bronze mirror, well, hair bun is a popular style in Hangzhou nowadays, hairpin rings are also pretty but not out of the ordinary, maidservant It is still obedient, not overdressed.Standing up, she looked at the water-red long dress held by the maidservant. The color was too bright, and she frowned slightly, "I don't want to wear this dress today, go and give me the lake-blue one."

"Miss, this dress was sent by Madam just now..." The servant girl knelt on the ground, holding the skirt in her hands, her voice trembling slightly.

Bai Lu gritted her molars, mother asked someone to send such a water-red dress, what does it mean?Didn't he already tell her that day that he only considers Min Ruibo as an older brother?

Looking at the maid who was kneeling on the ground tremblingly holding her skirt, Bai Lu sighed, "Get up, I'll just wear it."

"Miss Xie." The maidservant just opened her mouth, stood up, and waited for Bai Lu to change into the water-red dress.

After changing the dress, the maid took out a handbag of the same color and handed it to Bai Lu, "This is also prepared by the madam for the eldest lady, and there are some pieces of silver in it. The madam said that if the young lady has something fancy, just buy it." , if you don’t have one, you can hold it in your hand and make an ornament.”

Bai Lu took the handbag. It was the size of a palm. The water-red Shu brocade was embroidered with white orchid patterns. It was exquisite, "Go back and tell your mother, she won't bother her." After speaking, she turned and left the turret.

When they reached the gate, a carriage had already parked outside. Min Ruibo and Qiu Maodian were standing beside the carriage, not knowing what to say, and the atmosphere seemed strange.

Min Ruibo was the first to see Bai Lu who appeared at the door, and walked up to Bai Lu in two or three steps, "Sister Lu'er, you are here." After speaking, with a shy smile on his face, he added, "Lu'er Sister, you look so beautiful today."

Bai Lu smiled and didn't speak, but pretended to look at the sky, "It's getting late, let's go."

"Ah, good." Probably because he noticed Bai Lu's obviously indifferent attitude towards him, the smile on Min Ruibo's face froze for a moment, but he quickly adjusted, "There is still a distance to the lake, cousin, come on." Carriage, I will ride outside with you."

Bai Lu glanced at him in surprise. She thought that Min Ruibo would ride in the carriage with her, but she didn't expect him to take the initiative to say that he would ride a horse and follow him. He showed a smile, "So, it's hard work for brother Ruibo to ride with him."

"No trouble, no trouble." Min Ruibo waved his hand, and because of Bai Lu's smile, he also regained that bright smile.

Qiu Maodian, who was ignored by the two, squinted his eyes slightly, and then with his elegant smile that has never changed for thousands of years, he held a folding fan in his hand and bowed to Bai Lu, "Qiu has met Miss Bai. "

Seeing Qiu Maodian, the smile on Bai Lu's face immediately faded, and she returned the greeting rather coldly, "Mr. Qiu." After that, she didn't give him a chance to speak, and walked around him directly stepping on the foot that the servant had set aside. stool, opened the curtain and entered the carriage.

"Heh." Min Ruibo glanced at Qiu Maodian, sneered, with a bright smile on his face, but his eyes were full of sarcasm, he cupped his hands, and said arrogantly with a victor's attitude, "Mr. Qiu , I want to go to the lake with Sister Luer, so I won’t reminisce about the old days with you, goodbye.” After finishing speaking, he didn’t even look at him, but the boy handed him the reins, and he jumped on the horse neatly, and gave it a hard jerk. Reins, loud voice, "Let's go!"

　The story is starting to hit a wall...it feels like it's almost at the end...
