Chapter 10 A Story

The Duke's Mansion was once prominent in the capital. Even though the old Duke passed away many years ago and withered a lot, it is not comparable to ordinary mansions. You can get a glimpse of the identity of the birthday worshippers in the high-door mansion.

It was rare for Meng Xiaomei to change into a bright dress today, with some make-up on her face, she was still weak, but she didn't look like a patient, on the contrary she gave off a weak beauty.

Xu Junluo also changed into a goose yellow dress, without makeup, youthful and lively, with a pair of bright eyes that were particularly eye-catching.

The mother and son got off the carriage, followed Xu Jia'an and another wife and lady into the Duke's Mansion. Judging from the look on their faces and the reaction of the housekeeper who picked them up at the door, they were regular visitors here.

After entering the Duke's Mansion, there was still some time before the birthday, so everyone went to chat with their acquaintances, which is also the way of communication in the upper-class circle.

Xu Junluo didn't like this kind of entertainment, so she found a reason to slip away and wandered around the mansion alone. She especially liked ancient buildings.

The Duke's Mansion was glorious in the early years, and the architecture was extremely elegant, luxurious but without losing its heritage.

"Tsk tsk, a bumpkin is a bumpkin, I've never seen such a big house before." When Xu Junluo was admiring the scenery, harsh mocking voices sounded behind him.

Turning his head, he saw five young girls coming together. The one who spoke had met the aunt at home, and she followed the aunt who was beaten that day.

Xu Junluo glanced at her, was she beaten enough?

Sensing Xu Junluo's gaze, Xu Yuehe subconsciously took a step back and hid behind one of the women who was also wearing a goose-yellow gauze dress.

The woman's appearance and temperament are much stronger than the previous one, but the goose yellow color doesn't suit her, it sets off her dark complexion.Originally, everyone praised her for looking good today, but when she saw Xu Junluo, she was instantly compared.

Xu Weiyu's eyes dimmed, and she fell on Xu Junluo.

That person also came back today, he likes the goose yellow color the most, could it be that her goal is also him?
Xu Junluo originally thought that the woman on the opposite side would stand up for Xu Yuehe, but he smiled at her unexpectedly, "Second sister is not familiar with the Duke's Mansion, so she should be curious, do you want my sister to show you around?"

Although Xu Weiyu's words were very polite, both in and out of the words were showing her sense of superiority in living in the Duke's Mansion.

"Thank you, no need." The other party didn't want to tear his face, and Xu Junluo didn't want to make trouble this day, so he turned his head and walked towards the main courtyard.

But just as she walked to the entrance of the courtyard, Xu Weiyu's voice sounded again behind her, "Second sister, is she going to the main courtyard? Let's go together. General Qin Zhao is here."

"..."

Hearing this, Xu Junluo staggered, turned around, and smiled, "I just remembered, I have already passed over there, I will continue to go inside."

Even if the meeting cannot be avoided, she hopes that the time will be as short as possible.

After receiving Xu Junluo's answer, Xu Weiyu's eyes flashed a trace of hostility, but it was fleeting, and she smiled at Xu Junluo again: "Is the second sister shy? General Qin's horse was disturbed, and he sent you back to the mansion personally... Everyone thinks it's a good story."

The scene of Qin Zhao carrying Xu Junluo out of the carriage was so beautiful that it was even drawn, and it was widely circulated.

The corner of Xu Junluo's mouth twitched, he didn't expect things to develop like this, let alone being able to meet each other, he smiled at Xu Weiyu, walked away without saying a word.

Fleeing as if avoiding the plague, walked through several yards indiscriminately, and found a yard full of peach blossoms...
