Farm widows have space, pick up a treasure on the way to escape

Chapter 661
His father is only a long history official, and only a long history official in the county. There is no hope of promotion in recent years.

Although he has been studying for several years, his homework is not good, and there is basically no hope of gaining fame on his own.

Therefore, he has always wanted to find a woman from a good family to marry. His father was of little help to him in his career, so he could only focus on his father-in-law.

So over the years, he has been paying attention to managing his image so that those noble ladies can like him and save him a lot of trouble.

Even attracting Liu Yuexiang's attention in the first place was his intention. After all, Liu Yuexiang was the only daughter of the Linxian County Magistrate. If he could become the County Magistrate's son-in-law, it would be a good choice.

But now there is Lianhua, who is more beautiful than those women. Although she is only the niece of the second wife of the Lu family, she is treated like a legitimate young lady. Especially what Jia Rui said just now has simply refreshed his understanding of the Lu family. .

If a niece from the second wife's mother's family can be cultivated in this way, then if he becomes the son-in-law of the Lu family, wouldn't those resources be taken advantage of?

Not to mention that Lian Hua is so good-looking, with such a family background, even if Lian Hua is an ugly monster, he is still very tempted.

"Master Li, are you listening to me?"

After Jia Rui finished speaking, she found that Li Rong seemed to be in a daze. He called her several times and ignored her, and his anger suddenly rose again.

She didn't care if those people inside laughed at her. Who would have thought that Li Rong couldn't find a sense of honor here. Even though she said so much, they didn't listen.

"some."

Li Rong reacted and responded with a smile, looking gentle and elegant.

"Miss Jia, don't be sad. Maybe Miss Lianhua really means well, but the way of expressing it is not very good."

Now that he wants to please Lianhua, he naturally has to speak for Lianhua, but he doesn't want to offend Jia Rui. After all, she is the daughter of the county captain, so she still has some status.

After hearing him comforting her, Jia Rui's face really looked much better, but when she heard him say that Lian Hua probably didn't mean it, she felt angry again.

Judging from the sincere look on Li Rong's face, it seemed that he really didn't think Lianhua had done anything wrong.

Jia Rui felt a little tired. Why couldn't these men see such an obvious target?
"Mr. Li also wants to cling to the Lu family, so he protects the lotus like this?"

She was angry and had no scruples when speaking. Her tone was very mocking, and she could not stop the contempt on her lips.

Li Rong suddenly understood her smile, and the gentle smile on his face could not be maintained for a moment.

She was mocking him and belittling his family background.

"Ms. Jia's words are serious. My fair lady is a gentleman. Why don't you appreciate Miss Lianhua's talents?"

When he said this, Li Rong's face was full of sternness, which was because he was quite angry after being poked into the dirty side of his heart.

But he also admitted his thoughts about Lianhua. Jia Rui was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Sure enough, the world was as dark as crows.

Li Rong, who always prided himself on being noble, was like this, let alone other people. He knew what was going on with the male guest, and he must be trying his best to get close to that bitch.

The Lu family put so much effort into cultivating a cousin, surely because they wanted to use it to win over the higher dignitaries in the capital. How could they let a son of a low-ranking official like Li Rong succeed?
She felt that these people were just talking nonsense, but looking at Li Rong across from her, she couldn't help but said: "Master Li, don't forget, that Lotus's surname is Qin, not Lu. Don't plot a plot, but be happy in vain. .”

After saying that, regardless of Li Rong's ugly expression, he turned around and left.After venting to Li Rong, she was in a much better mood now.

After a while, she also figured out that no matter how good Lotus was, she was still just a pawn of the Lu family to cling to the powerful.

Li Rong stood there for a long time, with Jia Rui's words echoing in his mind. Lianhua's surname was Qin, not Lu. She was always a subsidiary. If something happened to the Lu family one day, women with foreign surnames like Lianhua might be pushed out. If he blocked the knife, wouldn't he also be implicated?
He came to Lian Hua because he wanted to use Lian Hua's power to pursue an official career and live the life of a master. He could only share joys and sorrows but not hardships.

So, he really started to hesitate.

If a family like the Lu family climbs too fast, it will definitely attract a lot of forces. Once it is dealt with, it will fall faster than anyone else.

The Lu family may really not be the most suitable choice.

After thinking about it, he went in with ease. Originally, he came out just to find a chance to inquire about Lotus and get closer. But now that he knew about it, he no longer had such thoughts.

The lotus was beautiful and moved him very much, but he didn't want to be implicated.

From this point of view, Liu Yuexiang is more suitable for her, and she can get in touch with him later.

When he returned to the living room on the male guest's side, everyone was discussing how to play hut. These are things that scholars like to play. The children of the Lu family are all studying, so they took it for granted that the Lu family should have it. Asked and said no.

Everyone in the Lu family looked embarrassed. They really didn't expect this thing and didn't prepare it in advance. It was really careless.

"It's okay. Those things are pretty much the same. Just ask someone to prepare them. I'll make the arrangements!"

Lu Xiaoyang felt that these scholars who talked all the time were really bored and wanted to do things on their own initiative.

Old man Lu waved his hand and let him go. Lu Baichuan and others didn't say anything, they just acquiesced. Everyone could see that Lu Xiaoyang was uncomfortable, so it was okay to let him out.

As for others, they felt that the Lu family was only superficially impressive and did not even have such elegant items. Li Rong was also glad at this time that he had just thought about it and did not even have such elegant items. He thought that this family would not prosper for long. Letting go earlier was the right choice.

Seeing the changes in these people, the Lu family remained calm, drinking when it was time to drink, and laughing when it was time to laugh.

Lu Xiaoyang came back after a while, carrying a vase and a few arrow feathers, very simple equipment.

Everyone's expressions were a little exciting, but they wanted to please the Lu family, so they all had forced smiles on their faces.

Lu Xiaoyang placed the equipment in the middle of the hall and said to the young master who first mentioned that he wanted to throw the pot: "Master Qin, please."

Everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Shouzhong. Qin Shouzhong did not refuse and said with a smile: "Then it is better to obey orders than to be respectful."

Lu Xiaoyang prepared ten arrow feathers, and everyone shot ten in a row to see how many they could score.

Five branches are the limit. If you hit five or more branches, you will win. If you hit five branches or more, you will be fined with alcohol. If you can't drink, you can perform your talents, or write poems or articles. Of course, if your literary talent is really not good, you can't. I can show off my other talents, just for fun.

Qin Shouzhong was able to propose this method because he was somewhat confident in his ability. He found a position to stand, took out an arrow feather and took a look, and then realized something was wrong.
