Chapter 376 The eldest brother and the second brother each support one

Seeing that Wang Minglu looked wrong, Bai Zehao was about to ask when he heard his father say enthusiastically behind him: "Minglu is here, come in and sit down quickly, we will have dinner later."

"Uncle, don't bother me." Wang Minglu's words were obviously unnatural. When he walked into the yard, everyone saw that there was another person following him. Isn't it his "benefactor" wearing a mask?

Lin Ping'er hurriedly greeted her with a smile and said, "Well, you're here too? Please come to the house quickly."

Jiang Yichun wore a mask that made it difficult to see his emotions, anger, sorrow, and happiness, but he still exuded the aura of keeping strangers away from him, making him look very noble and cold.

"You don't have to be too polite, madam. I'm here to check on Ruozhu." Jiang Yichun's voice was a little low, but very magnetic, like a pot of sweet wine.

Lin Ping'er was stunned. She didn't expect her benefactor to say that, let alone care about Ruozhu so much.

Fang Guizhi looked surprised, and a thought came to her mind: This masked adult was so nervous. This was completely different from what she had thought before. It seemed that she really shouldn't say more.

Thinking of this, Fang Guizhi said hurriedly: "Ruozhu is resting, I will wake her up right away."

She turned to leave, but was stopped by the deep voice, "Wait a minute!" This time he spoke faster, and his nervousness towards Bai Ruozhu could be heard more clearly.

"She is frightened, let her rest for a while." Jiang Yichun coughed slightly to cover up his previous gaffe, and then said in a calm tone.

Fang Guizhi had to stop and said, "Oh, let's wake her up later when it opens."

Lin Ping'er and Bai Yihong glanced at each other, and both saw the confusion in each other's eyes.

"Let's not stand in the yard and talk. Hurry up and sit in the house. Caiyue, go and pour tea for the guests." It was Bai Zehao who reacted first and urged everyone to go into the house to talk.

Wang Minglu's whole body seemed to be wilted like a vegetable leaf beaten by autumn frost. After drinking the tea from Wang Caiyue, he said the first words after entering the door: Thank you, little sister.

Seeing Wang Minglu like this, Fang Guizhi felt a little unbearable, so she said, "Thanks to brother Minglu for saving Ruozhu today. Ruozhu said before taking a break that he wanted to thank you very much."

As soon as she finished speaking, she felt a sharp gaze sweep over her. She shivered subconsciously, only to realize that it was the masked adult who glanced at her.

Fang Guizhi shrank her neck. This person was so scary. She just said one word and was about to be killed by a glare. If he knew that she persuaded Ruozhu to marry Wang Minglu instead, she would have died a dozen times?

Wang Minglu regained some energy after hearing what Fang Guizhi said. He smiled sheepishly and said, "I happened to encounter him while patrolling. Speaking of which, I didn't catch the criminal. I'm really ashamed."

"If you have to concentrate on saving Ruozhu, why should you be ashamed if you can take care of everything?" Bai Yihong had a good impression of Wang Minglu and immediately answered.

"Yes, my second uncle is too self-effacing." Bai Zehao also agreed, then looked at Jiang Yichun and explained: "Sir, he is my wife's second brother, and he is also a relative of my family."

Jiang Yichun glanced at Bai Zehao and said, "I know."

Bai Zehao remembered that if he invited someone to have a wedding banquet in Houshan Village, he would know their relative relationship, but he had forgotten about it. He smiled awkwardly at Jiang Yichunhan twice.

Jiang Yichun didn't look at him much, but said calmly: "The person who attacked Ruozhu may be related to the thief I recently investigated, so it is safer for me to find out about this matter."

Lin Ping'er and Bai Yihong looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. They even ignored Jiang Yichun's direct address of "Ruozhu".

Wang Minglu still lowered his head and said nothing. Wang Caiyue couldn't stand it anymore, so she went over and whispered: "Second brother, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? Are you tired from your job?"

Wang Minglu hurriedly raised his head and said, "No, no, I was a little distracted thinking about the case."

That's obviously not the case! Wang Caiyue felt uncomfortable, so she said to Lin Ping'er, "Mom, I'll take my second brother to draw a pair of shoes so that I can make him a new pair of shoes in a few days."

"Go on, go on, you brothers and sisters can talk too, don't be too restrained." Lin Ping'er said with a smile.

Wang Caiyue took Wang Minglu to draw shoes, but Wang Minglu said: "Caiyue, second brother is not short of shoes to wear, and my mother even made a new pair but didn't wear them on my feet."

Wang Caiyue sighed and said: "Of course I know you, my dear, you must be full of shoes. I just want to ask you what happened today? You look absent-minded."

Wang Minglu moved his eyes away, not daring to look at Wang Caiyue, "No, I'm just a little tired."

Wang Caiyue pulled her second brother's sleeve helplessly and said, "Is it related to Ruozhu? Do you really think I can't see your thoughts?"

Wang Minglu instantly blushed to his neck, "Don't talk nonsense, lest people talk nonsense about Ruozhu."

"Look at how nervous you are. Even my own sister has turned into a nonsense person." Wang Caiyue shook her head helplessly and added: "Ruozhu is a rare and wonderful woman. I admire her very much when I look at her every day. If you If you like it, work harder instead of giving up on yourself."

"I, I'm not..." Wang Minglu felt that he couldn't go on and lowered his head.

"Do you think you can't compare to others?" Wang Caiyue asked, "Second brother, if you think so, then I advise you to stop as soon as possible. How can you catch Ruozhu's eyes if you have no ambition?"

Wang Minglu was worried when he heard this, and muttered: "Are you still my biological sister?"

"You have your advantages. You are down-to-earth and able to endure hardships. Now that you are an official, you can give her a stable life. Moreover, our family knows everything about it. Even my parents-in-law will feel more at ease." Wang Caiyue finished speaking and said angrily to him. One glance, "So don't belittle yourself."

At this time, Bai Zehao's voice came from outside, "Caiyue is right, second uncle, I'm very optimistic about you, you have to work harder."

Wang Minglu nodded vigorously with a red face.

Now he was not as decadent as before. The three of them left the house together and returned to the main room. When he entered, Bai Zepei had already returned from the east courtyard and was talking to Jiang Yichun. The two chatted about official business and current affairs. Mr. Xie was recently reviewing Bai Zepei's policies. He chatted with Jiang Yichun for a while and felt that he had benefited a lot.

"Your Excellency, please stay for a casual meal so that I can ask you a few more questions." Bai Zepei said.

Jiang Yichun was very happy, "Okay, then I won't bother you." He originally wanted to stay for dinner, because he could only wake up Bai Ruozhu during meal time, and he also wanted to see her more. As expected, Bai Zepei was a good ally, and he gave him a reason to stay in just one sentence.

Bai Ruozhu, who was still sleeping soundly in the room, didn't know that her eldest brother and second brother had already divided into two camps and had their own supporters.
