Chapter 431: My sister can choose any man in the world, you don’t need to worry about it
"It's a small matter, simple." Lu Li smiled brilliantly.
She asked Qin Xiao to take the Jinyiwei sign to the government office, and the matter was done in two days.
After getting his household registration, Chi Hanqing was so excited that tears kept flowing out.
"Ms. Lu Jiu, you are my second parent. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid..."
She choked up and couldn't continue.
"Okay, take care of yourself, you can follow Long Zhentian back to the capital, and then you can hold your wedding in the capital." Lu Li patted her shoulder to comfort her.
Long Zhentian looked at Lu Li in surprise: "Miss Jiu, do I not need to follow you anymore?"
Lu Li shook her head: "No, it's more important to find a wife. You guys go back to the capital first. It's enough for you to have your three brothers with you."
Hearing this, Long Zhentian and Chi Hanqing's faces were tinged with embarrassment.
That's how it was settled.
There was no need to give the betrothal gift that had been prepared to the Chi family. After all, Chi Han was now an independent female household, so just give it to her.
Lu Li also helped her get back the dowry left by her mother.
Chi Hanqing was very grateful.
Now that Long Zhentian's marriage was settled, Lu Li no longer planned to stay in Anping City.
It’s been so long, I’ve stayed here long enough.
Lu Heng and Shan Haitang came to see her off reluctantly.
"This is for snake repellent and insect repellent, this will make you have diarrhea for three days after eating it, this can make people dizzy after lighting it..."
Lu Heng sorted the medicines prepared by himself and his wife into different categories, put them away, and handed them to Lu Li.
"Yeah, I remember it all." Lu Li nodded.
Lu Can couldn't bear to leave them, so he said, "Third brother and sister-in-law, why don't you come with us?"
"No, we are going to opposite places. Wait until Mid-Autumn Festival, if you return to the capital, then we can meet. If not, we will wait until the New Year." Lu Heng was reluctant to leave his younger brothers and sisters.
But they have all grown up and have their own lives.
It's impossible for us to stick together every day like we did when we were kids.
Lu Can was a little disappointed when he heard what Lu Heng said, but he sensibly did not make any further requests.
The group parted ways like this.
After Lu Li and others left Anping City, the palace's housekeeper also brought Long Zhentian and Chi Hanqing back to the capital.
Only then did Chi Hanqing realize that the man she was going to marry was actually the son of Prince Jin.
It turns out that Long Zhentian's background is so prominent. No wonder Zhang would rather sacrifice her life than snatch this marriage away.
"What are you thinking about? Are you not used to riding in this steam carriage?" Long Zhentian was a little worried when he saw her in a daze.
"No." Chi Hanqing shook his head and looked at him with relief and gratitude in his eyes.
Finding the Long family and asking Long Zhentian if he was willing to marry her was the bravest thing she had ever done in her life.
This bravery brought her lifelong happiness.
"Fourth Master, I really feel that I am very lucky." She raised the corners of her mouth, but tears were flashing in her eyes.
"I accidentally fell into the water, and luckily you rescued me; my parents forced me to get married, and luckily you were willing to marry me; my stepmother forced me to give up the marriage, but I refused and was almost killed, and luckily you came to my house and took me away..."
As Chi Hanqing spoke, a myriad of emotions surged into his heart. He couldn't control his tears and began to sob.
"You will continue to be lucky like this in the future." Long Zhentian reached out and wiped away her tears.
When his eldest brother asked him why he wanted to marry a strange woman with whom he had no feelings, he replied that it was out of responsibility.
But at this moment, when he saw her crying, he felt distressed.
He suddenly realized that he seemed to like this girl a little bit.
So, he hoped that she would continue to be lucky like this.
Hearing this, Chi Hanqing held his hand and nodded heavily: "Well, with you here, I will definitely do it!"
…
After three days of travel, Lu Li and others arrived at Yunzhong City, the most prosperous city in Xichang.
She had been here more than ten years ago when she and her father were on a secret visit, but they didn't stay here for long because her father wanted to visit places that were not so wealthy.
So this time, she decided to take a good look around this Cloud City.
After putting away the luggage, she took Lu Can and Lu Xuan out for a walk.
As soon as she went out, she noticed that many people were staring at her.
Lu Li was a little confused. What were these people looking at?
[Is it possible that I put my clothes on backwards? ]
【Is there food stuck in the teeth? 】
She murmured in her heart.
Lu Can heard her thoughts and subconsciously looked at her lips.
The teeth are white, without any vegetable leaves.
"Can'er, is there something on my face?" Lu Li asked.
"No." Lu Can shook his head quickly.
[Or is it that a spy is targeting me? ]
Lu Li muttered to herself while opening the melon-eating system.
But there was nothing different in the melon-eating system. Those who looked at her were just ordinary people.
The problems they have are all the same as those of their parents, nothing special.
Now Lu Li felt even stranger.
She looked at the people who were staring at her, and when they saw her looking at them, they quickly turned their heads away.
Lu Li walked and observed and found that most of these people were staring at her feet.
[Are my shoes special? ]
Lu Li secretly complained inwardly.
The feeling of being stared at made her uncomfortable.
After walking for a while, she still felt someone was looking at her, so she suddenly grabbed an old lady who was staring at her.
"What are you looking at?"
The lady who was grabbed was startled. She didn't expect that she would be grabbed directly by her hands.
She shook off Lu Li's hand and said with a look of disgust: "Let go, girl, you have no manners at all. You actually walked with so many men, and you have natural feet. I don't know what your family thinks that they let you go like this. Which wealthy family would marry a woman like you."
When Lu Can heard this, he exploded and said angrily: "My sister can pick any man in the world, you don't need to worry about it."
"Hey, you little brat, you have such a big tone." The old lady sneered, looked at the people around her, and they all laughed in tacit understanding.
"Your sister didn't even bind her feet. You can tell at a glance that she was born to work hard. Only women with bound feet can marry well." The old lady "tsk tsk"ed twice and looked at Lu Li's big feet with disdain.
The women beside him heard this and echoed it.
"Yes, the daughter of my neighbor's family was already married when she was five years old. Now she has a three-inch golden lotus and is extremely beautiful. Last month, she married the son of the Taiye of Lin County and is now enjoying a happy life."
"I heard that when Mr. Lu's family wanted him to marry a daughter-in-law, the first requirement was to bind her feet. If I had known this, I would have bound my daughter's feet so that she could marry Mr. Lu in the future."
After hearing this, Lu Li's face turned black with anger.
Who brought about this evil trend?
It is sheer nonsense to say that women can only marry well if they bind their feet.
Hearing everyone agreeing with her, the woman caught by Lu Li said smugly: "See, everyone knows that women can only marry well if they bind their feet. People don't want someone like your sister."
