Lin Wanyu felt like she was struck by thunder, and she looked at Bai Lu in disbelief.
"What do you mean Young Master Seven is here? When did he come here?" Lin Wanyu looked at Bai Lu like this. It was definitely not the time to come to snatch birds in the daytime.
Sure enough, Bai Lu shook her head: "I don't know, I was already asleep at that time, and the seventh young master came into my room for some reason, and then...then..."
She couldn't speak anymore, and her tears fell like silver threads again.
Lin Wanyu couldn't believe that Lu Langchen would retaliate against Lu Mingyu in this way.
"Beast!" Lin Wanyu was so angry that she wanted to immediately scratch that filthy guy with a human face and an animal heart!
But Bai Lu pulled her and begged: "No! Girl, don't cause trouble for the young master, I'll be fine."
Lin Wanyu thought Bai Lu didn't want Lu Mingyu to know about it. What if Lu Mingyu took notice and kicked the unclean Bai Lu out? How will Bai Lu live?
But when he glanced out of the corner of his eye, the dazzling red on the bed really pricked Lin Wanyu's eyes.
"Bai Lu, you..."
Bai Lu also knew that she couldn't hide it at this time: "Girl, I told you, the young master is the best person. He took the eight of us in the house. Although they were concubines, he never forced us. So what it was like when we came in, and what it is like now, the young master has never touched us."
But now he has been contaminated by that beast Lu Langchen!
Lin Wanyu felt like a fire was burning in her heart! Her whole head was buzzing, and she held Bai Lu tightly in her arms, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
It was she who harmed Bai Lu!
If Lu Mingyu hadn't found a bird to please her, Bai Lu wouldn't have been used as a tool of revenge by Lu Langchen.
What a good girl. If Lu Mingyu was really just taking her in with kindness, then Bai Lu might have a chance to leave the house and get married again in the future, but now she...
No! wrong!
Even if this is the case, it does not mean that Bai Lu will not be able to leave the house and get married in the future. This is a shackles of the world. Yesterday, Lu Mingyu also said that you must not put shackles of the world on yourself!
Lin Wanyu was enlightened instantly, and she thought she had an idea.
After comforting Bai Lu, she stayed with Xiangxue to take care of her, heated water for her to bathe, and took care of her to tidy up the whole house again.
Lin Wanyu clenched her fists and hurriedly came to Lu Mingyu's study.
This was her first time coming to the east courtyard. Before, when Bai Lu helped her for a walk, she only walked around the perimeter, not wanting to come in and disturb Lu Mingyu.
Seeing Shitou standing at the door from a distance, Lin Wanyu knew that Lu Mingyu must be there, and her steps became more hurried.
A stone would not stop Lin Wanyu, but Lin Wanyu barged in before she even had time to notify him.
After she entered, she closed the door and told Lu Mingyu in detail what happened to Bai Lu and her thoughts on fighting back against Lu Langchen...
Two days later, Lu Mingyu had promised Lin Wanyu to take her to Guo Moshan to play, making up for her and the hairpin banquet.
But after Lin Wanyu came to Qiantang, he didn't have many acquaintances, so Lu Mingyu called his friends again, but this time only Gao Tong came.
"Brother Di is out on escort duty. He probably won't be back until tomorrow, so I can only accompany you!" Gao Tong, dressed in sapphire blue brocade clothes and riding a snow-white horse, appeared in front of Lu Mingyu's carriage with high spirits.
Lu Mingyu poked his head out of the carriage and suddenly had a bad feeling when he saw Gao Tong dressed like a peacock spreading its tail.
He knew Gao Tong very well. Gao Tong wouldn't dress up like this if he was just out and about, unless...
"Shen Ningxin is here?"
"hold head high."
Shen Ningxin is the girl that Gao Tong likes. Unfortunately, the Shen family comes from a scholarly family. The second brother has worked in the Ministry of Household Affairs of the capital in high school. It is said that in the coming year, the girl to be married from the third brother will be brought to the capital to look after the officials' children.
Naturally, he would look down on the Gao family who smelled like copper.
This was also the source of motivation for Gao Tong who had studied hard for years and wanted to take the scientific examination. However, when the new emperor came to the throne, Gao Tong gave up the idea of taking the scientific examination. It seemed that he was destined to have no connection with this girl from the Shen family.
Lu Mingyu said with a look of hatred: "She will go to the capital after the New Year. Either you go for the scientific examination, or you can rest your mind!"
Gao Tong's heart tightened, but he still had a smile on his face: "So, I have to seize the last chance to leave a good impression on her."
He didn't give Lu Mingyu a chance to continue scolding him, and waved his hand to urge him: "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up the mountain. Brother Di has promised to keep an eye on his Lady Yunxi."
Today, Mrs. Yun Xi was also invited to Guo Mo Villa to play for the guests. According to the usual practice, Lu Mingyu and Gao Tong had to look up to her more or less for the sake of Di Wuji.
Of course, it’s also for today’s plan…
Back in the carriage, Lu Mingyu probably introduced Guo Mo Villa to Lin Wanyu and Bai Lu who were traveling with them.
This is a manor surrounded by mountains and rivers. There are several natural hot springs, so even in autumn and winter, the mountain can be as warm as spring. It is a very popular resort in several nearby towns. It is difficult to make an appointment on weekdays, let alone book a banquet. Lu Mingyu also met the owner of the village by chance a few years ago, so he came as soon as he could.
Gao Tong, as for Gao Tong, always likes to borrow flowers to offer to Buddha and invite the people he wants to invite. Naturally, if he is invited, he will not miss a visit to Guo Mo Villa. Basically, he responds to every call.
In order not to appear to have a clear goal, he posted messages to the third and third bedrooms of the Shen family and to the Li family, who was close friends with Shen Ningxin. All of a sudden, a simple gathering turned into a banquet.
Lu Mingyu was a little embarrassed: "I agreed to make up for you with a hairpin banquet, but I didn't expect that the boy did me a favor. I will definitely give him a beating someday to vent my anger!"
Lin Wanyu didn't care. She pulled Bai Lu and smiled: "We are all here to have fun and relax. It's lively with so many people. It just so happens that I don't know the ladies in Qiantang, so I might be able to make a few sisters today."
Bai Lu nodded wildly. This was the first time she went out with the young master to play. Her heart was pounding all the way. Coupled with the crushing encounters in the past few days... Fortunately, she had Lin Wanyu by her side, so she wouldn't be too nervous. and fear.
The Guo Moshan Mountain Road was just built a few years ago and has become much wider. In addition to accommodating two carriages, it can also accommodate a horse.
After the group of them arrived at Guomo Villa successfully, Lu Mingyu led them directly to the back of the villa, which was a racecourse surrounded by mountains, where everyone was playing polo.
"I can't ride a horse." Lin Wanyu looked at the dust and took a step back instinctively.
Compared to the two of them who were embarrassed, Lu Mingyu looked at the field, his eyes shining brightly: "You don't need to fight, just sit here and cheer for me!"
It turned out that this was an agreement between Lu Mingyu and Gao Tong. Last time Gao Tong narrowly beat him by a goal, and today Lu Mingyu was determined to get the match back, and he was excited and eager to try.
But because Lu Mingyu was the host, before going on stage, he introduced Lin Wanyu to a few girls he knew well and asked them to help keep an eye on Lin Wanyu. Then he turned back three times to change clothes and prepare to play.
Lin Wanyu was good-looking and had a gentle temperament, and she quickly got along with the girls. The way she called Sister Lin and Sister Lin did not seem like she was Lu Mingyu's concubine, but more like a chat meeting for girls who had not left the palace.
However, more girls gathered around Lin Wanyu and asked questions.
"Sister Lin, what kind of powder did you use today? This white and rosy face is so beautiful."
"Sister Lin, is your white fox cloak the new batch that was purchased by Ruyi Pavilion last month? I heard that that batch was made from the fur of the snow-capped white fox. There are only three of them in the entire Jiangnan."
"Sister Lin..."
More and more people gathered around Lin Wanyu, pushing Bai Lu aside and almost touching the girl in the next seat.
Bai Lu smiled awkwardly and looked aimlessly at the field, looking for Lu Mingyu.
Seeing Bai Lu's embarrassment, Shen Ningxin took the initiative and said, "What is the girl's name? I am the daughter of the Shen family, and my name is Ningxin."
"Ah?" Bai Lu turned around in surprise. She thought she would not be noticed by such a transparent person.
"Ah, what? You and the Sixth Young Master of the Lu family are here, and they are also his concubines?" the girl sitting next to Shen Ningxin said, her tone was not friendly, it felt cold.
"I'm sorry, this is my handkerchief, the legitimate daughter of Li's family, Li Peirou." Shen Ningxin introduced the two of them gently, pointing to the seat next to her and inviting: "I see Miss Lin is a bit busy, if you don't mind , you can sit here with us first, polo will start soon, you will be very tired standing and watching."
Bai Lu didn't expect that the girl in front of her who smiled like the sun would take the initiative to invite her. She was a little frightened, but she turned to look at Lin Wanyu, who was able to respond calmly with a dignified smile even though so many people were surrounding her. She thought to herself Definitely ok too.
So after a short breath to adjust, she showed what she thought was a generous smile and blessed Shen Ningxin and the other two: "Thank you, Miss Shen. Miss Li, my name is Bai Lu, and I am the concubine of the Sixth Young Master of the Lu family."
In fact, in this dynasty, it was difficult for concubines to reach the level of elegance, and their status was only slightly better than that of slaves who signed a contract of sale.
Wanting to introduce herself as my concubine, Bai Lu's heart beat violently and two blushes appeared on her face.
She was ashamed, but remained strong.
Fortunately, neither Shen Ningxin nor Li Peirou was a flatterer. Seeing how timid and brave Bai Lu looked, they enthusiastically pulled her to sit down.
With the sound of a gong, the polo match on the field began.
Lu Mingyu and Gao Tong were divided into two teams, plus the other three teams, two people per team, a total of ten people and ten horses on the stage.
Everyone didn't have to wait for long. Lu Mingyu scored the first goal.
Seeing Lu Mingyu excitedly holding the bat high from a distance, Bai Lu also relaxed a lot happily, but in the face of the conversation between Shen Ningxin and Li Peirou, she mostly remained silent.
Because she couldn't pick it up.
Gradually, she felt that Shen Ning's heart was like the winter sun, her every frown and smile could warm people's hearts, while Li Peirou was like that old bitter tea. She seemed cold and cold on the outside, but after just a few words, she could find that she had her own personality. She is a very independent and thoughtful woman.
These two people, one soft and the other strong, made Bai Lu, who rarely interacted with outsiders, feel very strange.
It turns out that not all women only focus on getting married and fighting in the house. They can talk about everything, exchange skills, and express their requirements for the other half of their hearts...
It's not like her, who just wants to have enough food and clothing every day, and it's not like my mother said, it's virtue for a woman to have no talent.
Looking back in the direction of Lin Wanyu, he found that she was also looking at her, waving to her, asking her to go back and sit with her.
Lin Wanyu was worried about Bai Lu, and she also blamed herself for not noticing that Bai Lu had been squeezed away just now. Finally, Bai Lu saw her and immediately waved her back.
But Bai Lu told her with her expression: I'm fine, it's very nice here, you're busy~
Afraid that Lin Wanyu would be worried, Bai Lu specially showed Shen Ningxin and Li Peirou next to her, as if to say: Look, I also made new friends.
