Chapter 823 Chapter 823
During this day, everyone was busy with their own things.
Song Guanzhou was checking the accounts in Shaohua Garden as usual. Xu Lingqiao caught a cold and did not come to Shaohua Garden. He was afraid of infecting Song Guanzhou, so he hid in Biluozhai to recuperate.
Xu Lingbai spent two consecutive days enjoying the snow and drinking tea with his fellow Jinshi students. He was quite leisurely.
Some people also sighed at the few red plum blossoms blooming in the snow, "If I could listen to a piece of pipa music played by Pipa Lang at this time, it would be the ultimate enjoyment in the world."
"Ha! Why, are you dissatisfied with Miss Baoyue's pipa?"
Some people joked, while others covered their faces with their sleeves, "Not really, Miss Baoyue is proficient in everything, but it can be said that women playing the pipa are softer. If you had listened to the song played by Pipa Lang, you would have known the myriad ravines in my heart, which would have been enough to move your heart."
"Oh! Have you heard that Pipa Lang is now disfigured and cannot go on stage. He can only do some disciplinary work in the Jiaofangsi."
Some people didn't know and asked, "He had a good appearance, how could he be disfigured?"
"Oh, my dear brother, you don't know that Pipa Lang has had affairs with many high-ranking officials and noble ladies in the capital. I'm afraid he has offended the wrong people and brought about this disaster."
Gee!
Xu Lingbai followed behind and listened to the general situation. He and Huang Zhi looked into each other's eyes and laughed together, "I didn't expect that there are still people curious about Pipa Lang--"
Huang Zhi and Xu Lingbai were becoming more and more familiar with each other, and he laughed heartily when he heard what Xu Lingbai said.
"Brother Lingbai probably has never seen Pipa Lang. This guy is quite accomplished in music and dance. Speaking the truth, regardless of all the rumors about him, he is truly a talent."
such a pity……
Very poor background.
Xu Lingbai held his forehead and laughed dumbly, "No matter how accomplished he is, he is also a Langjun. I didn't know these brothers were talking so enthusiastically."
Huang Zhi carefully told the secret, and Xu Lingbai was stunned.
"So many ladies love him?"
Huang Zhi nodded.
"If his face hadn't been disfigured, any family that wanted to hold a banquet would have felt as if it hadn't happened without him. It's a pity that his fair skin... yes, there's a big scar right under his eye."
Relying on his looks to make a living, he is doomed to failure.
Hearing Xu Lingbai sighing, Huang Zhi added, "Not only do the ladies love him, but there are also many wealthy and powerful men who are greedy for his beauty."
Oh!
Xu Lingbai had also gained some experience. Huang Zhi saw that he looked confused and his cheeks were flushed, so he couldn't help but move closer and ask, "Brother Lingbai... are you still a virgin?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Lingbai's face turned red.
The skin including the earlobes and ear tips and below the collar was all red.
This happened so fast, in an instant, Huang Zhi was stunned, and then he laughed excitedly, "Brother Lingbai, at your age, you don't have a maid in your house?"
Ouch!
Xu Lingbai's eyes were filled with tears of shame, "Sanlang, spare me, Lingbai is thin-skinned and can't stand this kind of teasing."
The person walking next to him looked back and immediately burst into laughter.
"Brother Lingbai, you are so shy, just like a woman, but it's a pity that you were born in the wrong identity!"
They were all young and handsome men, and when they were chatting, they even mentioned Xu Lingbai's sister.
"I heard that Brother Lingbai has a virtuous sister. If not... I am still unmarried. Please take a look at me, Brother Lingbai. If you look at me differently, we can get married."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Lingbai's face flushed and he could only shake his head.
Before he could say anything more, Huang Zhi had already stopped smiling, his face was solemn and stern, "Xu's sister is a dignified and quiet person. Marriage is such a big deal, how can you guys joke about it like this?"
Even the person making the joke felt that he had made a mistake.
He quickly bowed and saluted to Xu Lingbai, "Brother Lingbai, please forgive me. Sanlang is right. I was reckless."
Xu Lingbai also reacted at this time and hurriedly helped the person who was apologizing up.
"Brother Zhang, you are too polite. My sister has a gentle personality and is not suitable for joking. Please don't laugh at me, Brother Zhang."
Zhang Jingzhi said sincerely, "Brother Lingbai, I lost my temper, but I still want to marry you. How about I hire an iceman with my parents and go to the mansion to propose marriage tomorrow?"
what?
Xu Lingbai never thought that he was serious, and quickly shook his head, "No, no!"
Zhang Jingzhi became more serious, "Brother Lingbai, although my family is far away in Jizhou, my ancestors also have some land. Although I am not rich, I can still call servants. Although I am not as noble as Brother Lingbai, I don't have any messy maids in my little house--"
Just when he was about to talk about his family background, Huang Zhi, who was standing beside him, sneered.
"You and the girl from the Lingbai family are not suitable for marriage. Besides, today's garden tour is not the time to talk about marriage."
what?
Zhang Jingzhi was stunned for a moment, "Not a good match?"
What kind of incompatible marriage is this?
Huang Zhi snorted and laughed, "Your zodiac sign is the Rooster, and Ling Bai is the Dog. You should not bring harm to Ling Bai. How can you have such a marriage that will bring unrest to both the chickens and the dogs?"
you--
Zhang Jingzhi was filled with astonishment. Hey, Huang Sanlang, what do you mean?
He then looked at Xu Lingbai, whose face was still flushed, but he nodded truthfully, "My sister is of the dog sign——"
Ai……
Zhang Jingzhi wanted to argue a few more times, but Huang Zhi said, "Now we are all waiting for the Ministry of Personnel to send an official. This is an important time, it is not appropriate to talk about marriage. Brother Jingzhi is confused."
Uh...not confused!
Xu Lingbai is fair and clean, so his sister must be as delicate and graceful as a willow. Earlier, I heard that Lingbai's sister looks about 50% similar to the fourth young master's wife of the Pei family.
I heard that the daughter of the Grand Secretary Song was very talented and beautiful.
To be honest, Zhang Jingzhi had this idea a long time ago, but he had heard someone mention it to Xu Lingbai before and was rejected.
At this moment, Zhang Jingzhi couldn't suppress his inner thoughts and spoke out.
But Xu Lingbai hasn't refused yet.
Huang Zhi stood in front of Xu Lingbai and refused directly. No, who was he to make the decision for Xu Lingbai?
"Brother Lingbai, I am sincere."
Huang Zhi looked at him with annoyance and directly scolded him, "Brother Lingbai only has one sister, and the brother-sister relationship is very close. You don't even know where you will be working in the future, and you want to separate the brother and sister?"
"Sanlang, that's not the way to put it. A beautiful woman is sought after by hundreds of families..., I——"
"You also know that you are a good girl, so you should go home and ask your parents if you are suitable for this marriage? Don't harm the young lady of the Lingbai family because of your whim."
The more Zhang Jingzhi listened, the angrier he became.
"Sanlang, what you said is wrong. Marriage is extremely important. It is not just about the zodiac sign. One's character and family background are also important. My Zhang Jingzhi family is not bad either."
After all, they are a well-known and wealthy family in Jizhou.
"Besides, how can Sanlang say such things? Could it be that you are also attracted to Lingbai?"
