"What, you want to postpone the wedding for half a year?"
Xiaoqing's eyes widened with a look of disbelief on her face, and she screamed angrily: "Xu, do you want to regret your marriage?"
"No, no, no, Miss Xiaoqing, please listen to my explanation!"
Xu Xian waved his hands repeatedly, but his eyes were full of surprise. He didn't understand why Miss Xiaoqing's reaction was so intense. Didn't she understand the key to it?
It's impossible. As a maid next to a dignified official lady, it would be a joke if she didn't understand some of the rules of marriage.
That is to say, Xu Xian was in a hurry to explain at this time, and the beautiful Miss Bai family was beside him. His mind was a little confused at this time, otherwise he should have noticed something wrong long ago.
Miss Xiao Qing's reaction was so intense, and she was obviously not aware of the trouble that he and Miss Bai might encounter if they quickly got married. This is very suspicious.
"Xiaoqing, stop fooling around and listen to what Mr. Xu has to say!"
Bai Suzhen woke up from her shock. She looked at the embarrassed Xu Xian with a pair of beautiful eyes and said with a gentle smile: "Sister, I believe that Mr. Xu is not a person who breaks his word!"
"Thank you, Miss Bai, for your understanding!"
Xu Xian repeatedly cupped his hands and explained with a wry smile: "The thing is like this..."
A little while later, Xu Xian left the Bai family in Qingbo Mansion with a satisfied look on his face. He no longer had the anxiety and uneasiness he felt when he came. He secretly thought to himself that indeed, Miss Bai's family was really considerate and knowledgeable. After learning about the situation, she immediately agreed to postpone the wedding for half a year.
So touching.
In the main hall of Bai Mansion, Bai Suzhen and Xiao Qing were speechless for a long time.
"Sister, it's so troublesome. Getting married is so troublesome, I might as well forget it!"
Miss Xiaoqing's face was full of displeasure and she said angrily: "Listen to what Mr. Xu said, it's another good thing done by the guy who built the pot!"
"Xiaoqing, don't talk nonsense!"
Bai Suzhen waved her hand and said with a wry smile: "This is because we didn't understand the rules of the world and almost did something bad with good intentions. Fortunately, someone reminded us, otherwise we would have ended up harming others instead of repaying our kindness!"
"That's why my sister is so persistent. If it were me, I wouldn't care about the rules of the world!"
Miss Xiao Qing complained: "Sister, I still say the same thing. There are many ways to repay kindness, so you don't have to involve yourself in it!"
"Xiaoqing!"
Bai Suzhen glared at Xiaoqing with dissatisfaction, shook her head and said, "You don't understand!"
Xiaoqing looked at her sister's gentle face, feeling angry but helpless. She could only grunt and turn around and leave. She really didn't understand what her sister was thinking.
She didn't think there was anything good about Xu Xian, he was just a pretty faceless guy with no skills at all, and he couldn't even speak fluently.
But her sister Bai Suzhen just fell in love with her, and she looked like she would not marry him unless she was the king, which was simply inexplicable.
According to her opinion, based on the principles of demon cultivators, if she really wanted to find someone to marry, she might as well take advantage of the leader of the Lei Hall of the Qin Feng Martial Arts School. At least that guy was strong enough.
Lei Hu didn't know what Miss Xiao Qing was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely be furious. He really had no idea of provoking Bai Suzhen, and he didn't even have the idea of finding a female companion.
Are you kidding me? Cultivation is inherently lonely. He may also travel through all the heavens and worlds. What will he do then?
It's not like he had never seen beauties in the martial arts realm before. When he was the emperor, even though he didn't have three thousand beauties in his harem, they were still among the flowers, and he had no idea of getting married to a demon cultivator.
Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen's marriage seemed like child's play, but Lei Hu's playful intervention delayed it for half a year.
During this period, Li Gongfu and Xu Jiaorong were very busy. While they were spending their energy to get the three matchmakers and six betrothal gifts for Xu Xian, they also had to check and fill in the gaps to prevent major loopholes and problems in the marriage.
I don’t know if she was stimulated, but while she was staying in the Bai Mansion to get married, Bai Suzhen worked hard to learn the rules and customs of the world. Obviously, the previous events had greatly touched her.
Whether it was Lei Hu's reminder of the land deed or the marriage, it was because she didn't understand the customs of the world that she made a big joke.
Even if the joke only spreads in a small circle and does not make a fuss, Bai Suzhen still can't stand it.
After all, she has always been a leader among the demons in the hinterland of Qingcheng Mountain, and is the object of admiration and admiration from all the demons. Although she has a gentle and generous temperament, she has also developed a heart full of arrogance.
It turned out that I had only been in Qiantang for a short time, and I made two big jokes because I didn't understand human customs.
What does it mean to do bad things with good intentions? The two jokes she made before are the best examples.
If a commotion really breaks out, Bai Suzhen feels it's okay, but Xu Xianxu, a high-ranking official, may not be able to bear it. This is a result Bai Suzhen doesn't want to see.
After learning the lesson, she learned well and took advantage of the opportunity to get married to try to understand the customs of the world, so as not to make jokes about such things after getting married, which would be inappropriate.
She didn't want to make another dumb joke because she didn't understand human customs.
…
Miss Xiaoqing has been very leisurely recently. Although the Qingbo Gate White House is under renovation, she has spent a lot of money on it. Naturally, someone has taken over all the management and procurement matters, and there are five ghosts as supervision. It's really
Don't worry about what might happen.
Although she was not in a good mood, she still listened to Lei Hu's original warning and melted all the silver she had stolen from powerful families and re-cast it to avoid any flaws that would reveal traces.
During the process of melting and casting the silver, some extremely secret imprints of the family were indeed discovered, which made Xiaoqing unexpected and couldn't help but be a little more cautious.
If this batch of stolen money is not processed and is spent so freely, the final result is obvious and it will definitely lead to lawsuits.
It didn't matter to her and her sister. At worst, they could just leave Qiantang and live a prosperous life wherever they went.
But it is obvious that Xu Xian will not be able to survive.
However, it is not without benefit to act according to human rules.
This time, a lot of money was spent on the renovation of Qingbo Gate's Hakufu, and various craftsmen and materials came in a steady stream. Although it took a long time, she and her sister did not need to waste their mana.
Just as Lei Hu said, the mansion created by magic will one day be revealed, and then my sister Bai Suzhen will not be able to explain it even if she has hundreds of mouths.
It's not as good as the current situation. Spending money to hire people to repair the mansion is also a way to advertise the wealth and extraordinaryness of the White House to the outside world. This is also a way to build a reputation.
It is said that Xiaoqing and Bai Suzhen have been thinking about human customs for a while, and they have actually figured out some tricks, which will at least be very helpful for Bai Suzhen to dress up as an official lady.
Promoting the reputation and wealth of the White House is one of them. After all, she is the daughter of a dignified military commander. No matter how down-and-out she is, she cannot be compared to the ordinary people and the wealthy family. In a small place like Qiantang, there is no way to get it.
Revealing the family heritage and strength, right?
If it were like what the sisters thought at first, there would be no need to publicize their fame, and it would be quite strange for others to marry Xu Xian in such obscurity.
After learning some human rules and understanding many local customs, I looked back at the previous actions of the two sisters. There were flaws everywhere, so Xu Xian ignored them. Otherwise, no matter how gentle and generous Bai Suzhen was, people would be suspicious of her.
Origin and origin.
Now, the two sisters, who have been prepared, are no longer so reckless in their actions and have exposed many obvious flaws.
As for whether the exposure of wealth in the Baifu will attract others to covet him, it is impossible for such a thing to happen. Do you really think that Li Gongfu's name is fake?
At least, with the large-scale construction of Baifu, the entire upper-class circle of Qiantang County is aware of the marriage between Baifu and the Li family's brother-in-law. As long as they are not fools, they will not act rashly.
It is true that the Song Empire valued culture over martial arts, but if martial arts reached a certain level, it would be quite a deterrent.
The White Mansion does not have the power to display. Although the Five Ghosts are nothing in the eyes of real monks and powerful warriors, for those below the fake elixir realm, it is really an easy and simple matter.
The five ghosts were headed by Bai Fu, but Xiaoqing spent some effort to collect the powerful ghosts refined by the Five Elements Ghosts, which existed between ghost cultivators and magic weapons.
The "Five Ghosts Luck Wealth" is a magical power, not just a so-called means of driving ghosts. Bai Fu and other five ghosts not only belong to the five elements, but can also appear in the daytime, just like living people.
With these five towns, the White House is not to be said to be impregnable. Ordinary thieves are no match at all. Unless they meet the descendants of powerful people like Prince Liang, who can mobilize a lot of resources and manpower to deal with them, otherwise it will be just a group of powerful households in Qiantang County.
, I really can’t handle it.
It is said that everything is on track, and they will only wait for Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian to get married in half a year so that they can complete the so-called repayment.
Unfortunately, Miss Xiaoqing just couldn't be happy. She just felt that her sister Bai Suzhen was obsessed with lard, and she fell into some weird emotions and couldn't extricate herself.
But Miss Xiaoqing couldn't tell her what she was doing. She just felt that her sister's recent behavior was getting weirder and she didn't look like a great demon who had practiced for thousands of years.
In a depressed mood, she had no intention of continuing to stay in the noisy White Mansion under renovation. She said hello to her sister and went out for a walk.
As I walked, I unknowingly left the bustling part of the city and came to a secluded and desolate place. This is just my nature.
Huh……
Miss Xiao Qing suddenly came back to her senses, sniffed hard with a look of suspicion on her face, and said to herself: "Why is it so evil?"
She followed the traces of the faint demonic aura and went all the way out of the city to a nearby mountain forest with lush vegetation. The demonic aura here was still light, but it was much clearer and richer than in the city. It was impossible to hide it from Miss Xiao Qing.
of exploration.
Moreover, she also found some clues in the lush vegetation, with a look of curiosity on her face.
At the same time, in the Qiantang County Yamen Hall, the county magistrate called Li Gongfu and another arrester, with a gloomy face and loudly reprimanded...
