It is mid-December now, and two months later it will be January, or February at the latest. By then the weather may have warmed up.

Li Mofu's eyes lit up, "Okay, I'll be leaving by February at the latest."

"Okay." Lu Mingyun breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he was no longer angry or annoyed.

You know what, it’s quite easy to fool... and easy to coax.

he thought.

"Didn't you just say that you can take whatever you like?" Li Mofu suddenly asked.

Lu Mingyun paused and nodded, "Of course."

"I want to take that." Li Mofu pointed to the screen behind Lu Mingyun.

The screen was large, tall, and heavy, and was embroidered with green mountains, a sea of ​​clouds, and mountain stone pines.

You can vaguely see a golden glint on the screen, probably gilded. It will definitely be very beautiful if it is lit.

"..." Lu Mingyun pursed his lips and forced a smile, "Okay, let them move it to you."

Li Mofu felt very proud when he saw Lu Mingyun's painful expression.

This is indeed valuable, he has good taste!

Li Mofu quickly asked Guozi and Mo Yi to move the things away. When he knew that they had to move the screen, Mo Yi hesitated a little, and only dared to move after Lu Mingyun agreed.

After the three of them left the yard with the screen, Mo Zhu frowned and said worriedly, "Master, that was left by the eldest princess. She embroidered it herself. It's the only one of its kind in the world. What if it gets damaged..."

Lu Mingyun raised his hand and Mo Zhu stopped talking. "As long as he's happy, let him be. If he wants to die all day, I'll be in trouble."

"...Yes." Mo Zhu.

Li Mofu placed the screen in the study. When Mo Yi and a servant from Qinglian Courtyard carried it up to the second floor, he followed behind for fear that it might get bumped.

This screen looks really nice in a bright place. Li Mofu looked at it again and again, and felt more and more that this screen should be placed in his study.

"Sir, let me paint your face." Guozi said, holding a small white bottle.

Li Mofu's eyes were still on the screen as he asked, "What are you painting?"

"Cold oil." said Guozi.

Only then did Li Mofu remember that he had been slapped twice. He touched his face and hummed, "What a wretch."

He was naturally talking about Lu Baiyu.

Guozi lowered his head and pretended not to hear anything.

On the other side, Lu Baiyu went to Yixiangyuan with red eyes to cry to her mother.

Because I was walking too fast, my eyes were blurred with tears and I couldn't see clearly and bumped into someone.

"Eh!"

"Miss!"

Lu Baiyu was knocked flying, his eyes went dark and he fell to the ground, and he heard several voices in his ears.

Her teeth directly broke her lip, and her mouth suddenly tasted blood.

"White jade?"

The person she bumped into was the second son of the family, Lu Fengning, Lu Mingyun's half-brother and Lu Baiyu's brother.

"Wuwuwu..." Lu Baiyu cried out in pain, and the tears that had been suppressed in her eyes flowed out.

Her lips were covered in blood, and when her tears flowed onto them, they stung. She cried when it hurt, and when she cried, it hurt again. This went on and on, and she looked miserable.

Lu Fengning was stunned. Seeing his sister burst into tears, he quickly squatted down and wiped her tears. "It's all my fault. I didn't notice you and didn't mean to bump into you."

"Wow, brother, my eldest brother asked me to stay with my grandmother for a few days..." Lu Baiyu said crying.

She originally wanted to act pitiful, but the wound was really painful and her whole face fell.

Seeing this, Lu Fengning wanted to laugh, but now was not the time to laugh. "It's almost New Year's Eve, so it's time to go visit grandma. Besides, you're the only one in the family who has time to go visit her."

"I don't want to!" Lu Baiyu sat on the ground and started to act like a spoiled child. "My grandmother is so strict, and she eats vegetarian food and chants Buddhist scriptures all day long. If I go to her place, I have to copy scriptures and eat vegetarian food every day. I won't go!"

Lu Fengning supported her arm and helped her stand up. "Did my eldest brother tell me why he asked you to go to my grandmother?"

"...because..." Lu Baiyu paused, pouted and told the whole story, of course adding a lot of exaggerations.

Lu Fengning's face turned very bad after hearing this.

"Brother! It's really that bitch's fault. I did it for..." Seeing this, Lu Baiyu added fuel to the fire and wanted to say something.

"Bai Yu!" Lu Fengning stopped her, his eyes serious and his lips tight.

Lu Baiyu was yelled at by his two brothers in one day and was completely stunned.

"..." Lu Fengning couldn't bear it anymore when he saw this. He first glanced at the maid Lu Baiyu brought with her, and then pulled her to the rockery not far away.

The maids didn't dare to get close.

"Hmph!" Lu Baiyu tried to break free in a petty act.

Lu Fengning looked at Lu Baiyu and sighed, "Did mother say something to you?"

"...Mother is not wrong!" Lu Baiyu said with a frown.

Lu Fengning frowned, looking tired.

His mother, Lin, came from a humble family, but was beautiful. Lu Baiyu looked like her, but he looked more like his father.

But Lu Baiyu is straightforward, easily trusting others, and has a bad temper, which is unlike either his father or his mother.

"Bai Yu, don't you have any questions in your mind?" Lu Fengning asked softly.

Lu Baiyu was furious, but seeing Lu Fengning was so serious, she couldn't lose her temper. She frowned and asked, "What's the question?"

"Big brother is the eldest princess's son, a member of the royal family, and the eldest son of the family. He will inherit father's title in the future," Lu Fengning said softly. "Big brother has such status, but father insisted on marrying him to a man. Don't you think this is very confusing?"

Lu Baiyu nodded vigorously, "It's just very strange, that's why I'm so angry!"

"You don't understand what I mean." Lu Fengning pursed his lips, sighed, and then asked, "What do you think of father's attitude towards big brother?"

"Father thinks highly of my elder brother." Lu Baiyu affirmed.

"Father values ​​my eldest brother so much, why does he want to marry him off as a man?" Lu Fengning asked.

"...Because..." Lu Baiyu frowned, "Could it be that father actually dislikes big brother?"

"..." Lu Fengning held his forehead with his hand and smiled bitterly, "On the contrary, there must be something hidden behind this. Father must be doing this for big brother's own good."

"Do you really think that Big Brother has a homosexual habit?"

“…” Lu Baiyu really thought so.

"Some things are not as simple as we see on the surface. My eldest brother has his own reasons for protecting that male wife, and my father has his own reasons for helping my eldest brother marry a male wife." Lu Fengning added.

"But mother..." Lu Baiyu recalled what his mother had said, "Mother has always blamed father for marrying my eldest brother a man."

"Mother has been the principal wife for many years. Do you think she doesn't know the secret behind this matter?" Lu Fengning's eyes dimmed.

Lu Baiyu was stunned.

"Mother...didn't I tell you a long time ago about the discord between you and elder brother?" Lu Fengning smiled unkindly.

Lu Baiyu still couldn't believe it. "But mother clearly loves my eldest brother so much. She gives him the best food, clothing, housing and transportation. She always puts him first in everything..."

"My eldest brother is the eldest son, so he should have the best food, clothing, housing and transportation. Moreover, there are many shops in the mansion that were left by the eldest princess..." said Lu Fengning.

The two siblings stood at the rockery in silence.

"It's better to go to your grandmother and let her teach you more. Don't be so rude and rude when you get married in the future." Lu Fengning patted her head and said.

Lu Baiyu pursed his lips, enduring the pain, but the confusion in his heart grew even greater, "What on earth could have happened that even father and eldest brother had to retreat?"

"..." Lu Fengning shook his head and didn't know.

====

At night, Li Mofu lay in bed and couldn't sleep.

He has been here for almost a month, and during this month he has discovered a pattern.

That is, all the women he met inexplicably hated him.

Li Mofu, a man, is a man who has been single for twenty years and traveled through time.

I am actually hated by so many women, or even disgusted by them!

He felt that he needed to reflect on himself and wonder if he looked too ugly.

To be honest, this body is not handsome, but it has regular features, delicate eyebrows and eyes, and looks exactly like him.

You'll look quite handsome after dressing up.

Count the women he has met and known so far.

The first one, Nanny Lin, was instructed by others to freeze him to death.

The second one is Aunt Bai, whom he saw in the dream. She killed the original owner and wanted to kill him.

The third one, Yuzhu, works for Aunt Bai and wants to force him and make him angry to death.

The fourth one is Lu Mingyun’s concubine, who wants to force him and make him angry to death.

The fifth one, Lu Baiyu, slapped him and tried to push him into the water.

Li Mofu closed his eyes and wanted to cry.

In fact, if he thought about it, he could understand why these women hated him and couldn't stand him.

Because Li Mofu is now the male protagonist's wife, even though he is a man, as long as he is in this position, he will be disliked by the women in the courtyard.

Of course, Lu Baiyu hated Li Mofu more because he occupied the position of the male protagonist's wife.

But if the male protagonist did not marry him but married a woman, would she really not have any conflicts with that woman?

Conflicts between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law have existed since ancient times.

There were many such plots in the domestic fighting novels that Li Mofu had read before.

In the original novel, after "Li Mofu" was taken away by the Taoist priest, the male protagonist married Lu Baiyu's best friend.

Even so, there were many conflicts between Lu Baiyu and the heroine.

...Best friend?

Li Mofu suddenly opened his eyes and sat up abruptly.

Is there a girl of the same age as Lu Baiyu with her today?

Is that the heroine?

Li Mofu carefully recalled the girl's appearance...

What a pity, I didn't look closely.

Maybe that's the heroine.

Li Mofu felt so sorry that he slapped his thigh.

In a sense, they all came from other times.

The only difference is that the heroine traveled through time, and he traveled through a book.

I remember that in the original novel, the heroine fell in love with the hero at a flower viewing party when she was fifteen years old, and since then the heroine has been waiting for the hero to marry her.

Li Mofu recalled the plot and lay down again.

"Go to sleep, there will be delicious food when you wake up tomorrow." Li Mofu murmured and closed his eyes.

On the other side, in the palace, Wang Ruiyan, the second daughter of the Minister of Rites, had not yet fallen asleep.

There were only a few lights on in the room, illuminating her desk. She looked at the portrait on the table and fell into deep thought.

Wang Ruiyan is now fifteen years old and has reached the age of marriage. Even if her parents want to keep her for a few more years, it is time to get engaged.

She was just hesitant about the choice of person.
