The Lu family's carriage hurriedly and slowly entered Chang'an City. The golden crow fell to the west and dusk began to fall. This time they took a shortcut and would be home in two or three quarters of an hour.
Unexpectedly, they were forced to stop on Huaihua Street.
"What do you want to do?" Brother Xu took a few steps forward and asked the person blocking the carriage. At the same time, he pressed his thick palm on the butcher's knife at his waist. He estimated that if there was a fight later, he would be able to face these people. What a chance of winning. But no matter what, he will protect the little girl from the Lu family.
"We didn't want to do anything. Dare we ask if Miss Lu Er is in the car?"
In the carriage, Lu Songli frowned. Was her schedule exposed? In response to the inquiries from outside, she said coldly, "So what if it is, and so what if it is not?"
"Miss Lu Er, our eldest lady has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come out and see us."
"The second young lady is from the Zhao family." Mo Bing whispered through the carriage curtain. She went out when the carriage was stopped.
Those who come are not good, and those who are good will not come. This is the inner city, and she has nothing to fear. Lu Songli decisively opened the car curtain.
Zhao Yutan took a few steps forward and said, "Ah Li——"
When she saw Zhao Yutan, Lu Songli secretly thought it was bad luck! But he still got off the carriage.
Brother Xu followed closely behind him, with an obvious intention of protecting him.
Lu Songli held a fan in her hand and shook it gently, "I'm out, tell me why you ordered people to stop my car?"
"I'm looking for you because I have something to tell you."
Lu Songli signaled that she could start.
Zhao Yutan looked at the woman opposite and was silent for a moment.
While waiting for her to speak, Lu Songli stood casually, her eyes naturally falling on Zhao Yutan opposite.
Zhao Yutan is really beautiful, that kind of beauty with strong facial features, bright and generous facial features, strong three-dimensionality, and full of attack power. She often makes people's eyes brighten when she appears. It has to be said that a face like Zhao Yutan's is more resistant to aging and has a longer flowering period. In the original work, isn't it true that she is nearly thirty years old and weathered, and she can still bewitch Xie Zhan in her thirties and marry him as a widow? He is the step-brother.
But at this moment, Lu Songli looked at the other person, with such an appearance and her behavior, but for some reason, she always felt that something was wrong. Maybe it has something to do with her temperament? Probably because of the weather, Zhao Yutan's temperament is weak and even a little broken.
Maybe it's because he's been having a hard time lately, and he looks a little haggard.
Lu Songli looked at this scene with admiration. A peony that had been damaged by wind and rain was the credit of their Lu family.
Unlike Lu Songli's good mood, Zhao Yutan only felt that the person in front of him was strange.
Lu Songli was more like a shadow or a follower than her best friend and best friend. She had a quiet temperament and was taciturn. She had never paid much attention to her.
At this time, the setting sun stretched Lu Songli's figure very long. The evening breeze blew up her skirt and the bangs on her forehead, revealing her plump and smooth forehead, delicate eyebrows, small and pretty nose, and lips. Not thin, not thick.
Looking closer, her facial features are small and delicate, and her facial lines are soft and smooth.
With such an appearance, it is easy to give people the impression of being a petty and unworthy person. This was the case with Lu Songli in the past.
But now, she feels different from before. The more you look at it, the more interesting it becomes, and you have the urge to lift her chin and appreciate it in detail. What is the difference?
The more Zhao Yutan looked at it, the more frightened she became. She had never known that Lu Songli looked so good. She always followed her, her eyebrows lowered, and she always ignored the other person. She had always known that she was good-looking, but now when she looked at Lu Songli, she actually felt like they were equally matched.
On the street in the evening, two girls with different looks appeared, one as gorgeous as a peony and the other as pale as an orchid.
The two of them faced each other under the afterglow of the setting sun, one was majestic, the other was gentle: one was a flower of wealth in the world, and the other gave people a sense of cold alienation. I don't care about the stars day and night, I am independent from the world. The people around them automatically blurred into their background.
Guo Yan watched with horror. She was originally accompanying her cousin, but inexplicably felt that she was redundant and could not get between them.
"Zhao Yutan, you can say anything now." Lu Songli reminded her, what did it mean to just stare at her and not speak?
Her voice broke the stagnant atmosphere between the two.
Guo Yan also came to her senses. She was very dissatisfied with her calling her cousin by her first name, "Lu Songli, what's your attitude?" Besides, they had been waiting for her here since noon. After waiting for her for so long, She is also very angry.
Lu Songli is funny, what is her attitude? They stopped her carriage for no reason and forced her to get out of the car. Why did they think she had a good attitude? "My attitude is, if you have something to say, say it quickly! If you don't want to say it, just get out of the way. A good dog won't get in the way!"
Guo Yan's eyes widened and he was so angry, "Why are you so unhuman? Have you forgotten who brought you into the circle when you first came to Chang'an City, and who has been taking care of you? You are really a white-eyed wolf. .”
Lu Songli ignored Guo Yan and asked Zhao Yutan on the side, "You think so too?"
Zhao Yutan was silent.
OK, silence is the default. Are you going to break this up? Who is afraid of whom?
"Zhao Yutan, let's not mention how many times my father's care and guidance for your Zhao family have prevented you from being dismissed from office. Just take the years that I have joined you. Circle, have I ever refused Zhao Yutan’s request for anything? Apart from the initial care and concern, what else have you helped me with in the future? What I have done for you over the years has already paid back this care. Enough is enough." The original owner really regarded Zhao Yutan as a sister, and she had indeed helped her a lot over the years. No matter how difficult the other party's request was, she would help her.
"So you are so fussy about everything." Guo Yan couldn't believe it.
Lu Songli was speechless. Is this such a double standard? It was obviously them who settled the score first! "Yes, I care about everything, but you are so generous. You are so generous that you still remember the care you gave me back then."
Guo Yan choked, and when she was about to speak, Lu Songli glanced over and said, "I didn't get off the car to listen to you teach me how to do things. Besides, this is between Zhao Yutan and me. What does it have to do with you?" ?You are her dog, so you are so anxious to stand up for her."
Her eyes were cold, and Guo Yan was inexplicably afraid to say anything.
After looking at Zhao Yutan for the last time, Lu Songli turned around and left, not wanting to say anything!
"Ah Li, wait -" Zhao Yutan stepped forward to stop her.
