Chapter 44 Brother-in-law?

"Brother-in-law?"

I saw a girl wearing a light yellow gauze skirt, with an oval face, picturesque eyebrows, and skin as smooth as cream. She was about thirteen or fourteen years old, and she was a real beauty.

She was holding an uneaten piece of sugar cane in her hand, with a curious and shy expression on her face.

If Ji Que's prediction is correct, this should be Bai Lingshuang's sister Bai Lu.

If this marriage takes place, this will be his sister-in-law.

No, this can't happen!

According to Aunt Bai, this sister was born with spiritual bones and is also a one-of-a-kind spiritual genius?

Are there too many wizards in the White House?

This little girl is really pretty, but a bit flatter.

Pooh!

Ji Que suddenly thought of the troublesome matter of breaking off the engagement, and immediately said seriously: "I am not your brother-in-law. Please take my leave."

After saying that, he walked out, then quickly came back and asked, "When will your sister come back?"

"I'm not sure, but she goes home every year around the Dragon Boat Festival." Bai Lu said seriously.

Dragon Boat Festival, isn’t it next month? Come back then!

"Brother-in-law."

"Don't call me brother-in-law. I'm really not your brother-in-law. Farewell!"

Ji Que said, no longer caring about his image as a scholar, and ran out of the Bai Mansion. On the way, he was hit on the head by two falling pine cones, secretly thinking that he was unlucky.

Bai Lu looked at his back as he left in a hurry and couldn't help but laugh.

"Well, my brother-in-law is quite handsome."

Here she was smiling happily, but over there Mrs. Bai was in a different situation.

Seeing her mother's sad look, her younger sister Bai Lu couldn't help but say, "Mom, sister, just forget it if she's not suitable. What do you think of me?"

Mrs. Bai was already worried about the engagement. When she suddenly heard her youngest daughter speaking like this, she was stunned for a moment and then said, "What did you say?"

"If my sister likes to practice alone, let her do it. Anyway, Wo likes to live a life, and we are all members of the Bai family. If my sister doesn't want to, then Wo will sacrifice it. Let me do this engagement, so that you and your sister don't have to worry.

Do you think this is the case? Everyone is happy."

The more she spoke, the softer her voice became. When "everyone was happy" in the end, it sounded like a mosquito.

Because Mrs. Bai's face had darkened a long time ago, and her chest was so angry that her chest swelled.

"Stop first, stop!"

Bai Lu ran away without any hesitation.

"Stinky girl, this is messy enough, and you still want to make me angry!"

Mrs. Bai couldn't catch up for a while and was so angry that she was panting again and again.

Not long after leaving the Bai Mansion, Ji Que held onto the sycamore tree outside the Bai Mansion, and then spurted out a mouthful of blood.

Although this mouthful of blood had special effects, it truly expressed his mood at the moment.

This year, he failed to pass the exam to become a scholar, his money earned decreased, and now he can't even break off the engagement he was determined to win.

Simply poisonous.

Aunt Bai is the same. She won't back away from you even if you're weak, and she won't back away from you even if you're unlucky. She talked like Tang Monk for a long time without letting anyone interrupt. In the end, she said she couldn't make the decision.

Why are you talking to me so much when you can't be the master?

At this time, only a snapping sound was heard.

An egg hit Ji Que solidly on the head.

Ji Que rubbed his head, picked up the egg, and said in surprise: "Iron egg?"

He raised his head and said angrily: "Who the hell is hiding iron eggs in the tree? Why don't you hide a brick?"

The next moment, I saw him retreat violently.

With a bang, half a brick fell from the tree and hit his feet.

The servants at the door were shocked when they saw this scene.

Is this the legendary "words follow the law"?

A few days ago, the young master from the Yu family across the street was indeed playing in the tree, but he didn't expect to hide a brick?

In the Bai Mansion, the maid couldn't help but said: "Madam, just let him go like this?"

Mrs. Bai said with a gloomy face: "Then what do you want, to keep him as your uncle?"

The maid was startled and said: "You are too talkative."

"Send two people to watch him. Tianren City is so big. He just arrived from the countryside. If something happens here, our Baifu will not take good care of him."

"Yes!" The maid received the order and went down immediately.

At this time, Bai Lu ran in and asked: "Mom, how soon will we have dinner? I'm hungry."

"You still dare to anger me? Have you done your homework today? Have you finished practicing the exercises? Don't think that just because you have good talent, you can squander it randomly. You are still young and want to think about things. You still want to eat like this!"

What did Bai Lu say? She was born with spiritual bones and her talent should not be much worse than her sister Bai Lingshuang's, but her character is much worse.

Bai Lingshuang is devoted to cultivation and has no time to care about others, but this girl only knows how to eat and drink all day long. At best, she is lively, enjoys life, and humane; at worst, she does not do her job properly and is greedy for fun!

Thinking of this, Mrs. Bai became so angry that she only ate three bowls of rice at noon.

After Ji Que left the Bai Mansion, he was so angry that he vomited blood.

However, for him, who is the only one in the world of spiritual practice, vomiting blood is basically just a special effect and cannot hurt the body, but it also objectively reflects his emotions.

Not to mention three bowls of rice for lunch, he couldn't eat a single bowl. He only ate four bowls of fried noodles and a plate of roasted pig's feet at a noodle shop.

In this unfamiliar city of Tianren, only these delicacies could soothe his wounded heart.

After eating the noodles, Ji Que lost his goal for a moment and wandered around Tianren City. Naturally, he encountered a lot of bad luck along the way.

One of the pickpockets had just stolen ten taels of silver from him when he caught him with his backhand. In the process of begging for mercy with tears in his eyes, the pickpocket lost forty-three taels and was beaten severely.

After defeating the pickpocket and earning some money, Ji Que's mood improved.

Tianren City is very large, and the buildings are built according to the terrain, with undulating heights and unique characteristics in the southeast and northwest.

The Baifu that I went to before was in the East City. Compared to the West City, it was a lot cleaner and cleaner, but Ji Que still preferred the west side.

At least in terms of food, there are more choices than Dongcheng.

Tired of wandering around, Ji Que found a teahouse and listened to some leisurely reading.

But the storyteller's voice seemed to have a kind of hypnotic magic. Even if the gavel slapped and spit flew, there were still snores underneath, and Ji Que was one of them.

In fact, most of the people who come to this "Liu Meng Tea House" to listen to books are not to listen to books, but to sleep.

Relying on this characteristic, the storyteller did not starve to death, but lived quite well.

When Ji Que woke up, he found that it was already approaching dusk.

It's time to have dinner again.

Not far away, the two men sent by the White House to follow him were still snoring.

So in the Bai Mansion at night, Mrs. Bai's questioning voice soon rang out - "You can follow a scholar, how dare you say you are good at tracking?".

The two servants were speechless for a moment.

They used to be spies in the army, and it was not easy to track down a scholar.

But the storyteller was terrible.

The two of them thought that holding on to the storyteller's voice without sleeping was even more difficult than holding in the shit.

"Forget it, let's continue to send people to search. We have been following him all afternoon today. What did we find?" asked Mrs. Bai.

"This afternoon, Mr. Ji stepped on feces three times. Later, when a couple was arguing, he threw a kettle filled with boiling water. Although it didn't hit him, his boots were wet by the water; when it was time to eat at noon,

, he ate a nail, and then he met a pickpocket in the west of the city, but he reacted quickly and discovered it at once."

After listening to these two people's stories, Mrs. Bai was a little confused for a moment.

This guy said he was unlucky before, so it turned out it was not a joke, but the truth?

But, isn’t this too unlucky?

He is so unlucky and dares to wander around. How did he grow so big?
