Chapter 78 This matter has something to do with Bai Xun
Haicheng city center villa area, Lujia.
The history of the Lu family's fortune is actually very simple, but the older generation seized the best opportunity to turn it around. However, the history of the Lu family is not as long as that of the Bai family. From the beginning, the two families began to communicate, which can be regarded as life friends.
The Bai family once reached a peak period under the management of Mr. Bai, and was considered a very powerful family in the entire Haicheng. However, when it was handed over to Bai Jianhe, it slowly began to decline. Now it is not as good as a rising star. The Lu family is also the reason why Bai Wei will please the Lu family in every possible way.
In the splendid hall, servants come and go to tidy up. It is also late at night. At night, the Lu family went to Bai's house, and the entire Lu family, that is, the housekeeper and the servants came and went.
A girl in a pale white Lolita lace dress walked into the door. The neat bangs on her head looked very well-behaved, and the long curly hair made the girl's palm-sized face even more delicate. The moccasins on her feet It was thrown in a mess at the entrance.
"Brother! I'm back!!" The girl's smart voice sounded in the hall.
The pale pink leather bag in her hand was thrown on the sofa. She glanced at the stairs and the kitchen. She didn't see anyone, and then she cried out in the living room with akimbo on her hips.
"Dad!! Mom!!"
Still no one paid her any attention. She blinked and fell back on the sofa. Where have all these people gone, no one is home.
"Hey my little ancestor, why are you back at this time?" The housekeeper, Sister Mei, ran out of the kitchen and reached out to put her bag away.
"Sister Mei, where are my parents?" Lu Nian looked up at the kitchen, but he couldn't see the first person in the whole family.
"Mr. and Mrs. went to Bai's house, and the eldest young master said that Miss Bai's grandma is back, so they have to go there." Sister Mei looked down, she was wearing white pantyhose on her feet, but she didn't see any slippers. .
Lu Nian reacted, as if she heard her mother say that the marriage of her brother and sister Weiwei has to be done this year, so she came to propose a marriage.
The little girl sat on the sofa, her face puffed up.
"My little ancestor, why don't you always wear slippers, girls can't get cold feet, how many times do you have to say it before you listen." Sister Mei took the slippers for her, squatted on the ground and put them on her.
It's funny to see her bulging cheeks, "What's the matter? You're puffed up."
"They went to Bai's house to propose marriage, but why didn't they take me there, I miss Sister Bai Wei very much." Lu Nian's words were full of complaints.
Isn’t it appropriate not to take her there for such an important thing?
Sister Mei straightened her hair, raised her hand and took a tissue for her to wipe her sweat, "Aren't you busy with school, Madam didn't bother you, but it's already this time, why did you come back from school?"
Lu Nian became more and more unhappy, "I have no class tomorrow, so I want to come back and have a look."
If it wasn't for her coming back, I wouldn't even know that she was going to propose marriage.
"Little Ancestor, why did you come back as a girl by yourself? It's dangerous. Can't you let the driver at home pick you up? If something goes wrong, what should you do?"
Sister Mei went to the kitchen to open the refrigerator. The milk tea just cooked at noon was still in it. Lu Nian liked sweets since he was a child. Prepare what she likes to eat, this milk tea is just cooked and put in at noon.
poured her a full glass, and Sister Mei stood in front of her, "Didn't you say that your school is busy preparing for the art gala these days, so Madam didn't tell you."
Lu Nian raised the cup and took a sip. The sweet milk tea slid down her throat, silky and sweet.
"I want to call them, why don't you take me there." The girl opened her mouth in thought.
had just finished speaking when she heard the sound of a car coming from the door. Sister Mei glanced at it and said with a smile, "Looks like she's back."
The movement of the sports car is the eldest young master's.
Lu Nian hurriedly threw the cup down, and just rushed to the door, she saw Lu Zhenjiang and his wife who entered the door first. She rushed forward, jumped in front of them, and screamed.
"Daddy, Mommy, I'm back." The little girl's tone was sticky, and she smiled at them with a pretty little face.
Mrs. Lu was startled, and after seeing that it was her own little girl, she patted her back gently, "You child, why are you always surprised, if we have a heart attack? Don't be scared to death by you."
"Humph." Lu Nian snorted, not intending to pay any attention to them.
Seeing the person entering the door behind her, her eyes lit up, and she rushed forward and rushed in front of Lu Jinxiao, hugging him with open arms, "Brother, I miss you so much."
Lu Jinxiao continued to hold meetings abroad for a month, not to mention that Lu Nian is busy with school, the little girl is popular, and she is always busy with cultural parties and other things at school, and she doesn't come back often. It is a whole month. I haven't seen Lu Jinxiao in the time.
Isn’t that thinking?
Lu Jinxiao raised his hand to catch his sister who almost knocked him down, and rubbed her head affectionately, "Brother misses you too."
"Brother, have you brought me a gift? I want limited edition skirts and bags. I can't buy them in China. I sent you WeChat." Lu Nian hugged his brother's waist.
Mrs. Lu looked at her and shook her head, stretched out her hand and pulled her daughter over, "Let your brother change the slippers first, and you, why are you dressed like this again?"
Just like the noble ladies of the last century, every time Mrs. Lu sees her dress, she wants to complain, but this is her daughter's preference. It's okay to say a few words every time. .
But every time I don’t say it, I always have no rules. I often dress like this. It looks good, but I always feel a little out of place.
Lu Nian obediently stood aside. She didn't refute anything about her mother's opinion on her skirt. It was normal for the elderly to not understand the aesthetics of young people, as long as she liked it.
Grandpa said that she can live according to her own temperament, and neither mother nor father can say anything.
Almost Lu Jinxiao put on a pair of slippers, and Lu Nian wrapped them around, holding his brother's sticky arm and opening his mouth.
"Where's my skirt, brother."
Lu Jinxiao looked down at her and scratched her fingertips on the girl's small nose, "Do you miss me or a skirt?"
Lu Nian is a very personable man. Of course he knew what to say at this time. He hugged his brother and shook his arm, "Of course I miss you, I miss you very much."
Seeing her like this, Lu Zhenjiang sighed. Too often his daughter doesn't stick to him very much. It's also the reason why Lu Nian gave him too little company when he was a child, so Lu Nian's feelings for Lu Jinxiao are deeper than he is with him. a lot of.
Sometimes when he sees the relationship between the two brothers and sisters, he is very envious. It would be nice if his daughter could be so intimate with him.
"Brother." Lu Nian pulled his hand and sat beside him.
Lu Jinxiao couldn't help being entangled, rubbed her head, "I put it in your room, go up and see for yourself later."
Lu Nian's eyes lit up, he hugged him and took a sip on his brother's face, then got up cheerfully, and flew upstairs like a little sparrow.
"Jin Xiao, don't be so accustomed to reciting. Look at how nondescript she is, she looks like this and then she is like that." Mrs. Lu said while looking at her son.
The little ancestor of their family was petted by the old man when he was alive, Lu Jinxiao was petted, and Lu Zhenjiang was also petted by the lawless. At this moment, he has really been petted as a little ancestor by the living.
She was very afraid in her heart. If she married someone in the future, she would not make a fuss about it. Girls always look like girls. Gotta scare the good folks away.
If you can't get married after this, some will cry.
"It's okay, she can buy it for her if she likes it." Lu Zhenjiang replied.
"I didn't tell you again." Madam Lu glared at him, "If it weren't for your acquiescence, how could she become like this?"
Lu Nian's appearance is all their pet, really.
"Who would dare to marry her at this rate?"
"Okay, don't keep talking like this. Our Lu family can't afford to support them. Girls just have to live happily. What if they can't get married, our family will support them." Lu Zhenjiang said.
It's all a man's business to fight outside. Their little princesses will be loved and loved by others in the future. If you want to marry their little princess, it depends on whether they agree or not.
"Niannian's temperament is a bit willful, but his kindness and innocence are also very popular with elders and classmates." Lu Jinxiao replied.
"That's right, what's wrong with our family?" Lu Zhenjiang said briefly.
"Alright, alright, I can't say enough about you father and son, just spoil them." Madam Lu sat on the sofa angrily.
This girl wants to be spoiled, but these two fathers and sons are too spoiled, especially this Jin Xiao, I wish Lu Nian could pick up the stars in the sky. Usually, she is cruel to discipline her daughter and stand in front of her. The only thing is that this father and son have spoiled their daughter like this, so what else do they want to do?
"By the way, have you and Xun Luxia mentioned the specific matters of the wedding just now? Put the wedding on the agenda sooner." Lu Zhenjiang opened his mouth and ended the topic about his daughter.
Speaking of this matter, Mrs. Lu also looked at the two of them with doubts in her heart, "I just think it's strange, after you are gone, I will ask Lu Xia when to set the date, and the question of the dowry, but she doesn't know what to do. The reply that avoided this question seems to be running away."
Otherwise, the conversation between the two of them was very smooth in the past, but today's Xun Luxia is very wrong. How should I put it, there is some evasion of this problem or the question of not wanting to have a wedding, not at all like the eager look at that time.
This is not Xun Luxia's style.
"Is there such a thing? Is it the wrong way of asking?" Lu Zhenjiang looked at her.
Mrs. Lu shook her head, "No, that's true."
Lu Jinxiao glanced at his parents, and then thought of what Bai Wei said just now, the cigarette case he had taken out was thrown on the coffee table, but the cigarette at his fingertips did not dare to light it.
No smoking is allowed in the living room of Lu's house. This was a request made by Lu Nian when he was at home. Lu Nian couldn't smell the smell of smoke, so Lu Zhenjiang and Lu Jinxiao both adhered to this rule, and the default was terrible.
"There is no wedding, this matter is put on hold for the time being." Lu Jinxiao finally opened his mouth.
Xun Luxia and Lu Zhenjiang looked at him in unison, with doubts and surprises on their faces.
"You and Bai Wei quarreled?" Mrs. Lu looked at her son.
These two children have had a good relationship since childhood, and they are both very sensible children. Many things can be solved by themselves without their need to talk about it. What is going on at this juncture.
"Did you make Bai Wei angry again? Why can't you change your temper? It always scares girls away." Madam Lu looked at her son and complained.
Lu Jinxiao's icy appearance over the years was also supported by this marriage contract, otherwise he would have doubted his son's temperament that would not please girls, and it was estimated that he would be alone for the rest of his life.
Lu Jinxiao played with the cigarette in his hand, "She said it. She found that we were not suitable and had no feelings. She didn't want to marry me."
This is also straightforward enough.
"What are you talking about? It's been so many years. You two have grown up together. How can you not have feelings? Really, it's all messed up. It must be that Bai Wei, who didn't do a good job, is angry." Lu The lady became anxious all of a sudden.
This daughter-in-law is just flying away. Who can stand it? Bai Wei is the daughter-in-law she recognizes as a daughter-in-law. How can she not get married if she doesn't get married? Is this nonsense?
Lu Zhenjiang stopped his wife's next words and looked at his son, "Tell me what's going on?"
There has to be some reason, it's impossible for there to be no reason at all, the two of them broke up like that.
"She made it unilaterally, saying that she came to please me for the sake of the marriage contract and the Bai family, and I was tired. I didn't want to spend the rest of my life like this, so I hoped to stop before it caused an accident."
Bai Wei was thinking about what he could vaguely feel. Bai Wei herself knew that this engagement was known to everyone in Haicheng, and it was not so easy to terminate it.
Once it is easy to say cancellation, the stocks of the two companies will start to fall wildly, public opinion will start to turn, and the cooperation between the two companies will also have a certain degree of impact, and they cannot afford such consequences.
But with his love for Lu Nian, coupled with the fact that Lu Nian and Bai Xu were not on the same page since they were young, they started fighting as soon as they got together. It has not changed over the years. As long as Lu Nian doesn't agree or doesn't like it, he is absolutely She wouldn't marry her sister, and Bai Xu wouldn't either. If Bai Wei had already said that she didn't want to marry, there would be only one choice left.
If he guessed correctly, Bai Wei wanted to marry Bai Xun to him.
But why did Bai Wei marry Bai Xun to him? For half-sisters, once Bai Xun climbed up the Lu family, her status in the Bai family would definitely change. For her, it was nothing. benefit.
"Isn't this nonsense, she has been following your **** since you were a child. She called her brother from the back. I don't know how many times I have gone on a trip together over the years. Now that I don't like you, who would believe it? ." Mrs. Lu rejected the question.
Lu Zhenjiang didn't look at his son's expression like he was joking. Lu Jinxiao wouldn't make fun of this matter, so the problem was probably really on Bai Wei's side.
Over the years, he could clearly see how gentle and considerate Bai Wei was to Lu Jinxiao. If it wasn't for her tenderness, Mrs. Lu would not have liked her so much. If it was just for the marriage contract, Bai Wei would have gone too far.
But she has been courting her for so many years. If she wants to terminate this relationship suddenly, there must be something wrong. Otherwise, Bai Wei's determination will not be shaken. It is estimated that it has an unclear relationship with the Bai family.
"What's going on here? You explained it exactly as it is?" Lu Zhenjiang asked.
Lu Jinxiao's temple jumped at this moment, and rubbed his fingertips on the temple, "There is no wedding after all, this matter is temporarily put on hold."
"But the media are waiting for your news at the moment. What's the matter with this marriage contract being ruined like this?" Mrs. Lu was anxious.
"Okay, don't force him, Jin Xiao also has his own considerations."
Lu Zhenjiang opened his mouth to stop it, this child is no longer easy, and their parents should not put pressure on them.
"Could it be because of Bai Xun?" Madam Lu asked suspiciously.
The thing that can change Bai Wei's mind must be something wrong with the Bai family, but the Bai family has been here for so long, and there is such a thing as Bai Xun's return.
When Bai Xun's name was mentioned, Lu Zhenjiang realized that the marriage contract between the two families was decided by the older generation, and there was no rule about who was who. So, it is possible that Bai Wei really doesn't like Jin Xiao. Bai Xun came back and wanted to replace him.
But after so many years, the outside world has recognized that the two are a couple, but the two have not clearly issued a draft to see whether Bai Wei will really marry Lu Jinxiao, but what is going on with the sudden change of people? .
Lu Zhenjiang frowned, I'm afraid it won't involve Bai Xun.
"So, Bai Wei really doesn't like you?" Lu Zhenjiang looked at him.
Lu Jinxiao didn't feel irritable in his heart, on the contrary, he felt a little relieved, and nodded by default.
Two people without any feelings are indeed not suitable for being together.
Lu Jinxiao suddenly realized that these two children may really have no chance.
"Let's take a look, but this person can't be changed casually. Wait for news from the Bai family another day. Our Lu family is not an ordinary family. This is not a problem between the two of you. I want to see how Jianhe works together. I explain it."
"Okay, I'll go upstairs to rest first, then I'll handle it myself, don't worry." Lu Jinxiao went upstairs with the cigarette case and lighter on the coffee table.
Mrs. Lu looked at her son with some worry. When did Bai Wei become like this? At that time, a child who was knowledgeable and reasonable would never do such a thing of regretting marriage at this juncture.
What the **** happened.
"Take some time to chat with Xun Luxia and see what's going on?" Lu Zhenjiang looked at his wife and said.
Mrs. Lu nodded, and that was the only way. Lu Jinxiao said that they would handle it themselves, but the elders couldn't ignore it completely. The interests of the two families were too much involved.
"I'll make arrangements soon."
Wait for Bai Wei to calm down first and then see what's going on. If it's a momentary act of anger, let's see if it can be mediated. After all, she is still very satisfied with Bai Wei's daughter-in-law, a learned and disciplined child. , watching him grow up since he was a child, he will not have any bad intentions.
Lu Jinxiao just went upstairs when he saw Lu Nian who was standing at the entrance of the stairs with a black Lolita skirt looking at him. He put the cigarette case in his pocket and looked down at his sister.
"What are you doing standing here?"
Lu Nian glanced at his parents downstairs, stretched out his hand and dragged his brother into his room.
The pink and white decoration is the color of Lu Nian's room. The European-style bed is filled with all kinds of pink dolls, and a white wooden shelf is placed on the edge of the balcony. There are three floors in total, and each floor has Different exquisite puppet dolls, the skirts on the dolls are very delicate.
In the cloakroom, rows of feints of different colors are neatly hung in the cabinet, and different leather shoes and high-heeled shoes are placed below.
Lu Nian is also a little girl who is immersed in her own two-dimensional world. Those who are favored are all children with capital. The Lu family dotes on her, and she has this condition for her toss.
"What's the matter, don't you like the skirt?" Lu Jinxiao stood at the end of the bed, looking at the skirt in her hand.
Lu Nian shook his head, looked up at his brother, and asked seriously, "Brother, you really can't marry Sister Weiwei?"
Lu Jinxiao raised his eyebrows and pinched her little nose gently with one hand, "Eavesdropping on us?"
"I didn't, I just heard it by chance." Lu Nian raised his hand and pushed his brother's hand away, dragging him, "Tell me if you really can't marry Sister Weiwei."
What to do, she likes Sister Bai Wei very much. Whenever Bai Wei travels abroad, she will bring her different figurines and skirts back, which is also very good to her. She has begun to imagine what Bai Wei looked like when she became her sister-in-law.
Why is there a change now.
"Brother, you must have made Sister Weiwei angry, I'll take you to apologize." Lu Nian pulled his hand and was about to go out.
Lu Jinxiao didn't move, and dragged the person back, "Children, don't always care about things between adults, it's not that simple between us."
"I don't care, you must have annoyed her, otherwise, why wouldn't Sister Weiwei marry you? I'll take you to get soft." Lu Nian still held on to his brother's arm and didn't let go.
Lu Jinxiao gently pulled his sister back, "Study hard, don't always think about something, and leave your child alone."
"Why am I a child? My brother is 18 years old this year. You can't always treat me like a child. I know you have a good relationship." Lu Nian stared at Lu Jinxiao reluctantly.
Lu Jinxiao felt a little pain in his temples, and looked at her with his head pressed, "I have a headache today, please be obedient and stop making trouble."
"No, you have to go to Bai's house with me." Lu Nian held his hand and looked at her brother's perfunctory appearance. She reacted, just as if she heard a name from her mother's mouth, "Is it true? Is it related to that Bai Xun?"
It's not that she doesn't watch the news. She knows that the Bai family has found their daughter who has been lost for more than ten years, and she also knows that Bai Xu has a sister and Bai Wei has a sister.
Could it be that the retrieved daughter seduced his brother, and then her brother was seduced without keeping the bottom line, and then was discovered by Sister Bai Wei, which caused Sister Bai Wei to regret not wanting to marry her brother.
Surely so.
Lu Jinxiao was unable to do anything about her, so he opened his mouth and said, "Tell you to leave it alone, you won't be obedient, will you?"
Lu Nian was stunned by his roar, turned his head to look at him, and threw the skirt in his hand to the ground after a while, sat back on the sofa, lowered his head and started to feel depressed.
"You yell at me."
Lu Jinxiao has never been willing to say a harsh word to her since she was a child. She would be careful not to speak softly when she was speaking, but at this moment, her brother actually yelled at her.
After being tricked by her, Lu Jinxiao also reacted, sighed and squatted in front of her.
"My brother's voice is a bit loud, sorry."
The little girl pouted and ignored him, "You yell at me for that woman named Bai Xun."
Lu Jinxiao was stunned by her words, what does this have to do with Bai Xun.
"Don't think nonsense, you are still young, you don't understand our world, don't guess this." Lu Jinxiao coaxed.
This little ancestor can make a fool of himself when he is angry. No one in the family is coaxing him. Besides, Lu Jinxiao has really spoiled this little sister since he was a child, and he never said a single heavy word.
Lu Nian ignored him and turned his face to one side.
Looking at her appearance, Lu Jinxiao coaxed patiently, "Brother is wrong, I know you care about me, it won't be like this in the future."
Lu Nian looked at him, "Then you have to buy me a present."
"Okay, say whatever you want, and my brother will buy it for you."
This little girl's temper came and went quickly. After Lu Jinxiao agreed to all the shopping lists she opened, she raised her hand, and the little girl calmed down.
Lu Jinxiao came out of her room. When he was in a irritable mood and wanted to reach for the cigarette case, he touched the cold bottle in his pocket. He took it out and glanced at it. The transparent glass bottle contained light white medicine powder.
Looking at the contents of the bottle, he inexplicably thought of the girl's peach-like face in his head. When the little girl talked to him, the fresh and elegant face kept appearing in front of him.
It's been hell.
Lu Jinxiao put the bottle in his pocket, and the servant who came up the stairs with the tray happened to see him here.
"Eldest Young Master, Madam told me to treat the wound on your hand." The servant looked at his blood-dry fingers.
Lu Jinxiao looked down, "No need."
"But Young Master, I see the wound on your hand is quite deep, don't hurry."
"I said no, you go down."
The servant could only go downstairs with a tray.
Lu Jinxiao went into the bedroom, sat on the sofa and looked at the glass bottle of alcohol on the coffee table in front of him. After a while, he reached out and took the alcohol to wipe his fingers clean. After shaking the white powder on it, he leaned back and leaned on the sofa. .
This world is always wonderful, and fate is also wonderful.
Lu Nian turned around in the room three times. The maid who brought the doughnuts looked at his young lady strangely. It was not the style of a young lady to talk to herself while walking around.
When turning to the fifth circle, Lu Nian made up his mind, took his mobile phone and dialed a number.
After rang four or five times, she was hung up, she dialed again, the person over there was hanging up, and the person over there was connected on the seventh call.
"Lu Nian!! If you don't have something important to do, I'll go and strangle you to death. Believe it or not!!" Bai Xu's voice came from the receiver.
This side is busy doing experiments, just when the most critical moment, what is the matter with this dead girl calling one by one.
"You listen to me first, don't hang up!" Lu Nian cried.
"Did you know that brother and sister Weiwei didn't get married?" Lu Nian asked cautiously.
Bai Xu, who was pulling the herbs in his hands, stopped, and took the phone on his shoulders, "What did you say?"
"I said, what happened to your sister and my brother not getting married, you know?"
Bai Xu froze in place, why did such a big thing happen after he didn't go back for a day? My sister only made it clear that night that she didn't want to get married so early, so why didn't she just get married today? Is there something wrong in some link? .
"Hello? Are you listening to Bai Xu?" Lu Nian called out over there.
He came back to his senses, "Who did you listen to?"
"What Mom and Dad said, I just heard it."
"Are you sure you heard correctly?" Bai Xu confirmed it again.
Could this dead girl misheard herself and come to toss him?
"No, I'm sure I heard correctly, don't worry." Lu Nian snorted.
Bai Xu frowned, what was the reason if he heard it correctly, Bai Wei couldn't not marry for no reason, there must be some reason.
"Tell me, isn't your second sister beautiful?" Lu Nian asked cautiously.
"Second sister?" After he had reacted, he remembered that it was Bai Xun, "Why did you mention Bai Xun?"
"I heard what my mother said just now, and my mother said that it might be because Bai Xun came back. Do you think it was her who separated my brother and sister Weiwei?"
Lu Nian said the doubts in his heart, it must be Bai Xun's problem, otherwise it would not be like this.
"Okay, I know, I'll go and ask." Bai Xu's head hurt when he heard it.
This is nothing.
"Wait, I'll go to your house with you tomorrow, I want to see what character Bai Xun is."
She is not only curious now, if it is really because of that Bai Xun, she has to vent her anger to Sister Weiwei, no matter if she is the daughter of the Bai family.
"Don't come, our family will figure this out by ourselves." Bai Xu decisively refused her request.
This dead girl makes a fuss every time she goes to Bai's house, so he doesn't want to see him.
"No, I have to go. You are waiting for me at home. I will go there early in the morning."
"Don't come!"
After saying this, Bai Xu hung up the phone.
Lu Nian glanced at his cell phone, this dead man, hang up her phone and see if she doesn't go to his greenhouse next time to pull out all the herbs he cultivated for him, and see if he dares.
said that if she was not allowed to go, she would not go.
She still decided to go to the Bai family, and Bai Xun also decided!
Everyone who has seen Sheng Shi Xiao Chong remember Li Qingcheng, the little princess who is as petted as Qingcheng hahahaha
