Chapter 106 The Twins

"Humph!"

Qi Peiyun was so angry that he didn't go anywhere, and he didn't care about Liu Bailu, and walked out quickly.

Liu Bailu hurriedly followed and walked to the official road. She moved out all the pots and pans from the hidden compartment under the car seat, and made a small clay stove for some charcoal fire.

When she got these things ready, Qi Peiyun had already lit a fire to roast six fish on the fire, and a shelf was set up on the fire, hanging the pot she took out first, inside Stewed two small fish.

Liu Bailu didn't bother to ask, he raised the small clay stove and cooked rice on his own.

But after a while, the smell of grilled fish wafted into the air, and the fresh smell of the fish soup also emerged. Qi Peiyun glanced at Liu Bailu complacently, but saw her staring intently at the small clay stove, He couldn't help getting angry, got up and walked in front of Liu Bailu and kicked the clay stove over.

Fire coals splashed everywhere, soup overflowed, Liu Bailu took two quick steps back, but sparks were still splashed onto her clothes, Qi Peiyun was heartbroken and hurried forward to help put out the sparks on her skirt, and then lifted her clothes Repeatedly asked: "How is it? How is it? Has it been burned?"

"I'm fine." Liu Bailu held down the hem of her skirt to prevent him from lifting it up, and the words that came out of her mouth were still unremarkable.

"You woman!" Seeing that she was not angry at all, Qi Peiyun simply ignored her, turned around and walked back to continue grilling fish, but couldn't help but keep glancing at Liu Bailu from the corner of his eyes.

Liu Bailu stood there for a moment, then bent down to help the small dirt road, picked out the extinguished charcoal fire inside, and put the burning charcoal fire back into the stove with tongs.The rice is cooked in a very small iron pot, the bottom of which is about the size of a palm, and a pot of porridge is barely enough for three or four people.

The porridge was no longer available, so Liu Bailu silently carried the pot and walked into the woods.

Seeing her like this, Qi Peiyun stood up abruptly, walked over and grabbed the pot in her hand and threw it out: "What's wrong with you! Bewitched! I'm your husband-in-law! Not someone else! You don't have to treat me like this!"

Liu Bailu looked at Qi Peiyun in confusion, and asked, "Master, did my concubine do something wrong?"

It was still just the right look of confusion, and the depths of the eyes were still the same cold and dull, Qi Peiyun jumped angrily: "No, no, no! Of course it's not!"

"Then how do you want a concubine? How about a concubine who learns slowly?" Liu Bailu smiled, and the boundless loneliness spread from the corner of her mouth to the depths of her eyes.

Although she was so lonely, her whole body seemed to be radiant. Seeing her whole body immediately come alive, Qi Peiyun exclaimed happily: "Yes, yes, yes! That's it! That's it?"

"Is that so?" Liu Bailu stopped smiling suddenly, his eyes blurred for a moment, and a lonely smile was still involved, but this time it didn't reach his eyes.

"You!" Qi Peiyun became annoyed when he looked at her.

Liu Bailu stared at him flatteringly with peach blossom eyes, she looked exactly like every woman who tried to please her husband, but Qi Peiyun was disappointed by her calm eyes.

"That's all, that's all." Qi Peiyun waved his hand, turned and left.

"Shut up!"

Riding a fast horse from far to near, she stopped immediately in front of Liu Bailu. She raised her head to have a look, then quickly lowered her head and bowed her knees in salute: "The woman has seen the Ninth Prince."

The Ninth Prince jumped off the horse, looked at Qi Peiyun who was roasting fish in front of him, and said to Liu Bailu with a smile: "Get up quickly. I saw you from a long way away. What's wrong? Lost your temper?"

Liu Bailu bowed his head slightly to thank En and got up, but he didn't say a word to the Ninth Prince's question.

The Ninth Prince circled around Liu Bailu, snorted, and said, "I see how you are different from yesterday? By the way! I just saw you as if you wanted to curry favor with Brother Qi, but I heard that the concubine Mu Said, such a coquettish method is only used by concubines, why do you show such an expression when you are the wife of the main house?"

Liu Bailu's expression was obvious, and then he calmed down, and stood up with a smile on his extremely dignified face: "Your Highness, I'm afraid you may have misread it."

"Oh, by the way, how about your grilled fish? It smells so good, let me eat some, the fifth brother will come later, but I can't eat any more." The Ninth Prince glanced at Liu Bailu, shook his head and walked towards Qi Peiyun.

Liu Bailu stood on the spot with his head bowed, patted his face after a while, and climbed into the carriage gropingly, curled up in a corner with his knees in his arms, in a daze.

***
For several days in a row, Liu Bailu looked like this. At first glance, there is nothing wrong with it. He is dignified, gentle, obedient, and never makes mistakes. .

But if you look closely, she is like a walking corpse, without any expression, and the brilliance that occasionally flashes in the blink of an eye is as fleeting as a flash in the pan.

After the announcement of the decree, the Ninth Prince, who was staying at Yongkang Pass, visited several times and found that Liu Bailu had turned out to be exactly the same as those noble ladies in Beijing. After that, he was not happy to come here, and instead wandered around Du Shuang.

And the Du family will leave for Yulingguan to take office within one month after receiving the order. Although Mrs. Du is going back to the capital, Du Heng can also leave a month or two later, but Master Du is going to attend his son's wedding. Serve a cup of daughter-in-law tea.Therefore, the Du family came to propose marriage the next day after receiving the decree, requesting that the marriage be simplified within a month.

Qi Peiyun is a foreigner, so it is not easy to arrange the marriage of the younger sister by himself, and the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, so all these fell on Liu Bailu, but in just four or five days, Liu Bailu spent the least amount of money to pay for everything he needed. All the things are properly arranged, and the Du family can't pick out half a cent of etiquette.

And all the procedures required for the wedding are also completed in these four or five days, and the rest is to get married at the right time.

In the past few days, Mrs. Du has been full of praise for the dignified and gentle Liu Bailu, and even asked Liu Bailu to help teach Du Shuang the rules, so as not to make any jokes when she returns to Beijing.

Liu Bailu didn't agree, but asked Du Shuang to come and follow her every day to prepare for Pei'an's marriage, and taught Du Shuang the rules and the skills of being a director in every word and deed.

Although the Qi family has no servants, and Liu Bailu has to handle everything alone, but among them, if he is in a powerful family, he has been taught clearly how to behave, etc. Du Shuang has benefited a lot in just one month.

On the day of Qi Pei'an's marriage, Liu Bailu and Du Shuang stood together in scarlet clothes. From a distance, they looked like a pair of twins, their words and deeds were exactly the same.

The smile on Du Shuang's face, who was sent to help make up the money at the bride's natal home, almost froze. She gritted her teeth and said, "It's thanks to you that you can pretend to be like this every day."

Liu Bailu glanced at Du Shuang casually, and said, "You never miss a smile."

"Yes." Du Shuang squeezed out a smirk. Compared to a month ago, her smile was not flawless, but it was much more natural and soft.

Fortunately, there are not many guests in the Qi family, otherwise Du Shuang would really go crazy. In the past month, she also saw that something was wrong with Liu Bailu. egret.

She rubbed her nose, glanced at the time, and said, "It's almost June now, and I can't participate in this year's No. 1 Yuan selection. I don't know if I can participate next year. Well, you said that if the No. You look like this, so why choose? You see the same smile every day, don’t you get tired of aesthetics?”

Liu Bailu reached out to help Du Shuang smooth out the wrinkles on her clothes, and said, "Most women in Beijing live like this, but if they are at home, they can relax a little. Just be careful that walls have ears, so a gentleman should be careful."

"Cut." Du Shuang couldn't help rolling her eyes, "That kind of life is so boring, I might as well go to Yuling Pass with my father."

Liu Bailu straightened his face, and said: "Don't forget, Yuling Pass is like a dragon's pool and a tiger's lair. You will distract your father here, so it's better to go to the capital. If you rely on your ability to break into the circle of girls in the capital, you will naturally have more in the future." Your usefulness."

"Those noble ladies can control the government?" Du Shuang stared at Liu Bailu with wide-eyed eyes, she really couldn't believe it!Just relying on those wooden men?
Liu Bailu straightened her face and closed her wide-open mouth. For some reason, she relaxed a lot in front of Du Shuang, and she didn't pretend to be so rigid: "Of course they can't influence the government, but if they are used well, It can be used as a knife or used to collect some information. Don’t forget, in the rich and powerful’s family, the daughter is a spoiled guest, and they will try to use the daughter in the family to pass on some things. It is a science to distinguish the true from the false and the pros and cons , I believe you are better at this than me."

"Oh, women are the places where gossip gathers." Although Du Shuang's understanding was wrong, it was not far off.

Liu Bailu didn't bother to correct her, and said, "Get married today, return to the door tomorrow, and you will leave the day after tomorrow. You must remember what I said. The rules in Beijing are strict, and the maids and women around you Be careful, if it's unbelievable, don't let them get close, and don't let them enter your room, touch your clothes, food. When you go out, all maids and wives should follow, the more the better."

"Why? In a place as big as the capital, is it possible that there are still people kidnapped at the feet of the emperor?" Du Shuang asked.

Liu Bailu cast her a glance, and said: "You should know the importance of fame to a woman. If someone distracts the people around you in order to deal with you, as long as a man meets you in private, even if it's just standing face to face , your reputation is over."

"Ah!" Du Shuang remembered, why did she forget all the Zhai Dou novels she had read? "Those noble girls only use such a method? People dirty their clothes, find a place to change her clothes, and then steal her clothes to strange men, or arrange strange men to change clothes at the changing place Or frame someone into the water, arrange a man to rescue them, etc., blame others to slander their reputation, or use means to force others to marry?"

Liu Bailu sneered and said: "Although this method is simple, it is the most effective. As long as the goal is achieved, what other methods are effective?"

"Boring." Du Shuang grunted, and smiled again, becoming twins with Liu Bailu.
