After my fiancé became a monk, I actually had a three-year-old son

At the beginning of the twelfth lunar month, there was a heavy snowfall.

The Xingyue Lake in the Princess's Mansion was frozen. Lu Baohua was getting married in a few days, and there was a lot of busy work in the Duke's Mansion.

Lu Baozhu has been practicing calligraphy quietly in the courtyard these days.

When Qi Yuning took Lingling to play with Lu Baozhu, he saw Lu Baozhu practicing calligraphy. Qi Yuning quickly checked to see if the sun outside had risen from the west.

"It's really more surprising than the sun rising from the west. You, Lu Baozhu, actually take the initiative to practice calligraphy?"

Lu Baozhu listened to Qi Yuning's words and snorted softly: "It's freezing outside and there's nothing more fun than practicing calligraphy. Now my sisters in the past are either getting married or engaged, and there's no one to accompany them." I'm joking, one or two of them actually got married in the past few days. We got married in such a short period of time, so we don't have to worry about marrying someone wrong!"

Qi Yuning said: "You can't eat the grapes and say they are sour."

Lu Baozhu hummed softly: "I, Lu Baozhu, want to get married, and anyone who wants to marry me can line up from here to the city gate."

Lingling saw Lu Baozhu's handwriting and said, "Auntie's handwriting is very beautiful. Lingling will no longer learn calligraphy from second aunt, but from auntie!"

Qi Yuning smiled faintly, but don't mention it, Lu Baozhu's hard practice of Yongzi in the past still had miraculous effects.

Yong character is the foundation, but practicing other characters will get twice the result with half the effort.

Lu Baozhu saw Qi Yuning and asked, "Aren't you busy today? It's the twelfth lunar month again. You must be busy with the account books at this time?"

Qi Yuning said: "Baohua will get married in two days. I came to see you to give Lu Baohua makeup."

Lu Baozhu asked: "What are you going to give me to add makeup?"

"We have many ancient books in the study room of Prince Qi's Mansion. It would be a pity to keep them in Prince Qi's Mansion. We are planning to give them to Lu Baohua as a gift."

Lu Baozhu said: "Why didn't you tell her earlier to give her an orphan copy of ancient books? Wouldn't it look tacky if I gave her gold, silver and jewelry? As a sister, I can't be so careless. In this case, you accompany me to go shopping in the bookshop outside. , see what ancient paintings by famous artists there are.”

Qi Yuning said: "There are many ancient paintings by famous artists in your elder brother's study. You can go and get them as your gift."

Lu Baozhu said: "His collection of paintings is a treasure, and it is more important than his life."

"is it?"

After Qi Yuning got married, she only went to Lu Ze's study once.

It's better to follow Lu Baozhu when he was a child. Lu Ze never said not to touch his paintings.

Lu Baozhu said: "You don't know how scary it will be after touching his paintings. It's better to go outside and buy a painting."

The gifts given to each other by sisters are nothing more than gifts of jewelry. They are all sisters who are not short of money. Lu Baozhu is really afraid that as a sister, she does not have the same intention as Qi Yuning in giving her gifts.

Qi Yuning already had time to spare, so he accompanied Lu Baozhu to the bookshop outside.

For the shopkeepers in the bookstore, these two princesses are really rare guests!

Qi Yuning showed Lingling some enlightenment books. Although there were quite a few at home, Lingling was still young, so she couldn't look good after reading them a few times. Lu Ze's weird temper didn't show the wrinkles on the pages, so it would be better to buy a few more books. .

"Sister Nian, do you like this picture of horses at the border? It was written by the famous Shi Mo three hundred years ago. Unfortunately, it is too expensive. I think it is the treasure of this bookstore."

Qi Yuning heard a cute female voice, and then heard Lingling calling her aunt and brother. When she turned around, she saw that it was Shen Nian. There was a pretty girl about fifteen years old beside her.

When Shen Nian saw Qi Yuning, he smiled lightly and said, "What a coincidence, we see you again."

Before Qi Yuning could speak, Lingling said, "Let's choose a painting for the second aunt to add makeup to."

The pretty girl next to Shen Nian asked Shen Nian, "Sister Nian, who is this?"

"This is Princess Qi from Prince Qi's Mansion, and this is her daughter Princess Lingling."

Shen Nian introduced to Qi Yuning: "This is my aunt's niece, Yang Rusi, who is just fifteen years old."

Qi Yuning looked at Yang Rusi and saw that she had no intention of saluting. He remembered what Mrs. Shen had said about her low background last time, so he just glanced sideways at Yang Rusi and went to Lu Baozhu's side.

The shopkeeper of the bookshop took Lu Baozhu around. Lu Baozhu pointed at a picture of horses at the border and said: "This is the picture. It just so happens that the family that sister Baohua is marrying is a general stationed at the border. This painting is valuable and appropriate for the occasion. Just buy this one!" Yang Rusi saw that Lu Baozhu was wearing a dazzling cloud brocade, with a golden hairpin and golden steps on his head. He couldn't help but scornfully said: "This painting was written by Shi Mo, a great painter during the founding of the Great Sheng Dynasty. You can't buy it with a thousand taels of silver, but you have a strong tone!"

Lu Baozhu never thought that a painting would cost five thousand taels of silver, but Princess Lu was the most face-conscious: "It's just five thousand taels of silver. When my daughter of the Lu family gets married, what does this dowry mean? Just this painting, including stand up!"

Seeing how grand Lu Baozhu was, Qi Yuning also looked at Lu Baozhu in disbelief.

The shopkeeper of the bookstore whispered: "Young Master Shen already wants this painting. He paid six thousand taels of silver."

Lu Baozhu asked: "Did he pay?"

The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "No! Mr. Shen said he would go back and collect money."

Lu Baozhu said: "I will pay six thousand six hundred taels. I will pay the money right now and give me the painting!"

Qi Yuning thought that Lu Baozhu would not have so much silver. She usually gave her a lot of rewards. The princess and the Duke also gave her one hundred taels of silver to spend almost every month, but Lu Baozhu had always been a squanderer. Excessive.

It is estimated that it is not easy for her to have three thousand taels of copper in her private house. I am afraid that she will not be able to get this huge amount of silver.

Sure enough, Lu Baozhu walked up to her and said, "Good sister-in-law, please pay me!"

Lu Baozhu whispered in Qi Yuning's ear: "You lend me money first. When I get married, I will use my dowry to pay you back. You can't let me be despised by others!"

Qi Yuning smiled lightly and said to the shopkeeper: "Wrap it up and ask your boss to come to me in the princess mansion to ask for the account."

The shopkeeper responded repeatedly: "Yes."

Lu Baozhu looked at Yang Rusi and said, "If you can't afford it yourself, don't think that others can't. I'm being serious."

Qi Yuning pulled Lu Baozhu and said, "Let's go."

Lu Baozhu and Qi Yuning walked out of the bookstore and happened to see Shen Jialin coming.

This was the first time Lu Baozhu met Shen Jialin again after parting ways in the teahouse that day.

Shen Jialin looked at Lu Baozhu, and many unexplainable emotions welled up in his heart. After that day at the teahouse, he asked many people in Shengjing, and also asked King Xu in a vague way, and then King Xu revealed the true nature of Princess Baozhu.

He is fond of playfulness and extravagance, loves rich clothes and jewelry, but does not like dancing and writing. He is even the most disgusted with scholars.

He has been extremely superficial since he was a child. He is also simple, but because he has no city, he is easily taken advantage of.

Shen Jialin couldn't even convince himself to let such a woman become his wife, but after going through two years of letters in the past few days, he had long discovered that Miss Qian was happy with grudges and had a straightforward personality.

He had deliberately forgotten about Lu Baozhu these days, but he didn't expect that when he saw her, he would still find it difficult to calm down.

"Brother Lin~"

Qi Yuning couldn't help but shiver when she heard her brother's voice, which was even louder than Lingling's. Then she saw Yang Rusi walking up to Shen Jialin and saying, "Brother Lin~"

Shen Jialin ignored his cousin, gave the banknote to the shopkeeper, and said, "Wrap up the picture of horses at the border that I want."

"Sorry, Mr. Shen, the picture of Guan Junma here has just been bought by Princess Lu."

Shen Jialin looked at the back of the figure who was not far away from the door, chased him out and said, "Princess Lu, wait a minute, I have been looking for that picture of horses at the border for a long time, and by chance I saw it in Shengjing City. Please give it to me!"

Lu Baozhu said: "A gentleman does not take away what others like, this picture is mine! If you want it, unless..."

Shen Jialin said: "Unless what?"

"Unless you are willing to marry into my Lu family and become my husband-in-law, naturally this painting can be given to you!"

Lu Baozhu's voice was so strong that all the gentlemen outside the bookstore looked over.
