Soon after, Lu Jiuniang left Wanxiang Tower carrying the promised lantern.
When going out, hold the lantern high, level with your face.
In her life, she had never done anything so tasteless and uncultured in the past ten years, but she was really worried about meeting someone she knew.
If the legitimate daughter of the Lu family was seen in Wanxiang Tower in the middle of the night, wearing men's clothing, not only would the clan be punished, but she would also be the laughing stock of Bianjing City for more than a month.
Unexpectedly, after taking just two steps, I heard someone shouting "Jiuniang".
Why do you carry it so hard!
After hearing the sound, she not only did not turn around, but ran forward quickly.
The voice just now was all too familiar to her.
It was none other than the bastard.
The Wang family brothers and sisters are actually here. They are a family after all, and they all have such similar aesthetics.
Bastard, don't chase me. Go to the brothel to find your bragging brother.
Lu Jiuniang had only known Xu Nuo and the others for more than ten days, and now she was already developing from a dignified lady to a man who complained about big nerves.
The bastard had watched a dance performance by a group of brothel girls downstairs in the Wanxiang Building. She thought there were too many people, so she did not leave with the ladies who came to the lantern festival. She was not ready to leave until now. Who would have thought that she would see it as soon as she looked up? A familiar figure.
"Catch that person quickly." Wang Baniang squinted her eyes and looked carefully for a moment, then hurriedly ordered the maid next to her to catch Lu Jiuniang.
People in the capital usually say that Lu Jiuniang is good at learning and has the best etiquette. Today she wants to see who is this person who came out of the hospital?
Is she the Lu Jiuniang who was praised by others?
If that's the case, there's something good to watch.
In her anxiety, the bastard pushed the maid next to her, and the maid was pushed to the ground by her.
The maidservant was hurt by the fall, but she didn't dare to disobey the bastard's order. She could only endure the pain and get up and chase after her.
Two or three maids all went after Lu Jiuniang. There was no one around Wang Ba Niang to protect her. Instead, she was hit by the crowd and couldn't touch her head. It took a while to find her direction.
Lu Jiuniang ran forward quickly with a lantern. When she reached a crowded street, she heard someone shout "Jiuniang" again.
She had never been so unhappy with people calling her Jiuniang as she was today.
She subconsciously wanted to escape.
No one should be allowed to see the ninth lady of the Lu family like this.
As someone who had received the best education and learned the most standard etiquette knowledge since she was a child, she had never encountered such an embarrassing situation.
Although she ran fast, she was not as fast as that man.
A brown figure stopped in front of her in an instant.
"Ninth cousin?" Surprise and surprise can no longer describe Xu Pingyi's mood at this moment.
He didn't believe Erlang just now when he said that he saw the Ninth Lady of the Lu family. After all, the ladies from the Lu family are famous for their etiquette, and Jiuniang is the representative of this generation of ladies of the Lu family. How could she run wildly at a noisy lantern festival and wear men's clothes?
But he saw the lantern in Lu Jiuniang's hand, a lantern made by himself, and then he hesitated and shouted.
Seeing that she had been recognized, Lu Jiuniang hurriedly lowered her head and said awkwardly: "Cousin, I'm in a bit of trouble, can you help me?"
Xu Pingyi is a typical young man who likes to help others. How could he refuse when his cousin made a request? He nodded immediately.
After hearing the troubles Lu Jiuniang said, he hurriedly called Fan Zhongyan and Yan Shu. Xu Pingqi Ze had already followed, and the four of them blocked her in front of a stall selling masks.
When Lu Jiuniang saw Fan Zhongyan and Yan Shu, her heart almost collapsed. Brother Xu Pingyi was her cousin, so seeing her looking so rude was enough. Why were there these two?
Did the eldest cousin forget that she was a woman when he saw her wearing men's clothes?
While worrying, he escaped from the pursuit of the bastard and her maids.
Xu Pingyi took Lu Jiuniang to sit down in a restaurant with relatively few people, and asked: "Cousin, why are you here? And why is Liu Niang's lantern here with you? Didn't you go to enjoy the lanterns together? ?”
Fan Zhongyan and Yan Shu were sitting at another table to avoid suspicion, drinking wine and talking about elegant topics.
Lu Jiuniang glanced over there, then sat upright, and then whispered: "Cousin, Liu Niang and the third wife of the Hu family went elsewhere. I got separated from them a little late. I think I came here with Hu Ling's You are skilled enough to protect Liu Niang."
She has basically never lied, because she didn't need to lie about the things she did in the past. Telling the truth can better show her well-behaved and polite nature.
She really did a lot of extraordinary things today that she had never done before.
After hearing this, Xu Pingyi felt a little more at ease and said with a smile: "In that case, I will send my cousin back, otherwise there will be many people and things going on here, and you will not be safe alone."
He was good-looking and had such a gentle smile that almost made everyone who saw his smile unwilling to look away.
"Okay, I'm sorry to bother my cousin, but I have to change my clothes first..."
Lu Jiuniang put her hands on her knees, clasping them tightly, obviously dissatisfied with her performance today.
When she went out today, she was still wearing clothes specially prepared by her mother, with exquisite makeup, and the hair accessories on her head were exquisite and appropriate. If she went back like this now, her mother would definitely not recognize her.
Xu Pingyi was the best at understanding people. Realizing Lu Jiuniang's embarrassment, he hurriedly said: "On days like this, it is really convenient to wear men's clothes when going out, but you are still small now, and you don't look like a man when you wear men's clothes."
Then Lu Jiuniang went to the place where she had changed clothes before and changed back into women's clothes, and her whole temperament changed instantly.
Yan Shu had met Lu Jiuniang before, but he didn't feel anything after meeting her now. However, Fan Zhongyan had met Lu Jiuniang for the first time before, and now he was surprised to see her change from men's clothes to women's clothes and look so dignified and elegant.
His eyes lingered on Lu Jiuniang for a few moments longer, and he instantly realized his gaffe and looked away immediately.
Here Lu Jiuniang followed Xu Pingyi brothers to say goodbye to Fan Zhongyan and Yan Shu, and returned to the Lu family together.
They walked all the way and guessed a lot of lantern riddles.
"Cousin, if I knew you were so smart, you might have been able to get a dictionary by guessing lantern riddles with us just now.
"Vocabulary?"
Lu Jiuniang, who put on women's clothing, has regained the temperament and conversation that a noble lady should have.
