639 It Really Was
On the carriage back.
Shi Qingluo was in a good mood when she saw her sister-in-law’s happy expression.
“In the future, if you encounter anyone who plots against you, come back and complain. I’ll help you clean up.”
“If your brother and I are not here, you can take the guards to fix it yourself.”
!!
“At worst, you’ll just have a reputation for being tough, but it doesn’t matter as long as you live happily.”

Shi Qingluo was a modern person. She would not mistreat herself for the sake of her reputation. Of course, this was also what she taught her sister-in-law.
Xiao Baili’s eyes were filled with admiration and reliance as she hugged Shi Qingluo’s arm. “Sister-in-law is the best. I’ll listen to you.”
She did not care much about her reputation. If she was valiant, then so be it. It would save her a lot of trouble. Those who wanted to scheme against her might not dare to come.
Shi Qingluo thought for a while and asked, “Baili, it’s almost time for you to think about your engagement. What do you think?” Google search 𝗳𝔯e𝒆𝙬𝘦𝙗𝓷o𝘷el. c૦𝑚
After all, her hubby was the elder brother, so it was more appropriate for her as the sister-in-law to ask her about her marriage.
Xiao Baili was very reliant and trusting of Shi Qingluo. She smiled and asked, “Sister-in-law, what do you think of Brother Rui?”
“You asked him so many questions today. Listening to his answers, I feel that he fits my expectations for my future husband.”
In front of her sister-in-law, she did not hold back when she spoke.
Shi Qingluo knew that she had not misjudged her sister-in-law’s gaze.
“Your brother and I both think Xi Rui is not bad. He’s a little arrogant, but he’s not unreasonable.”
“Such a favored little tyrant doesn’t want to have any concubines or mistresses, so he’s not passionate about women. In the future, he should be able to only have a legitimate wife in the future.”
“Mainly, I’m familiar with him. It’s better than a blind marriage.”
“Of course, it depends on whether you like him or not. If you don’t like him, we won’t consider him no matter his identity or personality,” she emphasized.
Xiao Baili smiled. She knew that her sister-in-law and brother were the best. Usually, they would not force her to do anything she did not like, let alone force her to get married.
She thought for a while and said, “I think that Brother Rui is quite good. He’s also good-looking. I feel more relaxed when I’m with him.”
“We all like to eat, drink, and have fun. If we can be together in the future, we can accompany each other to go around and have fun.”
She spread her hands. “I just don’t know if Brother Rui will like me.”
As her sister-in-law had said, rather than marrying blindly and silently, it was better to find someone whom she was familiar with. At the very least, she knew the other party’s true personality.
Otherwise, she would encounter people like Tu Lihuan and the young master of the Lu family. They looked like gentlemen and usually behaved like modest young masters, but they were so despicable behind their backs.
It would be too unlucky to marry such a person.
Shi Qingluo smiled and tapped her forehead. “Silly girl, don’t you see that Xi Rui likes you?”
This time, Xiao Baili was a little dumbfounded. “Ah, Brother Rui likes me?”
Shi Qingluo nodded. “That’s right. Otherwise, with his personality, why would he take the initiative to go to the temple with you? He would often bring you and Erlang out to shop and eat delicious food. He would also bring you along if there was something fun.”
“Other than you, have you seen him go out alone with any unmarried woman?”
Xiao Baili’s eyes lit up. “That’s true.”
“Then, are we considered to have taken a liking to each other?”
Shi Qingluo chuckled. “Hmm, if you are interested in him too, it means you have a mutual attraction.”
“Will his family despise my identity?” Xiao Baili asked after some thought.
Shi Qingluo replied, “No, they won’t. Based on his response yesterday, it’s very likely that his family has already given their approval.”
“His family should be supportive of him marrying you. It’s not just for the sake of benefits. They might also think that the two of you are suitable for each other.”
Xiao Baili heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good.”

If the Xi family also looked down on her identity and did not approve of Brother Rui marrying her.
Even if she took a fancy to Brother Rui now, she would immediately give up.
As her sister-in-law had said, there was plenty of fish in the sea.
Of course, she had to catch what she needed to catch, just like how her sister-in-law had taken a fancy to his brother at first glance and took the initiative to marry into their family.
Ever since her brother married her sister-in-law, he has been smiling more.
Now, many people were envious of him.
Seeing her like this, Shi Qingluo knew she had something on her mind, so she asked, “Do you want to talk to him directly, or do you want me to ask your brother to talk to him?”
Xiao Baili thought about it and winked at Shi Qingluo. “I’ll spend some time with him myself.”
It was not fun to confess now.
“Alright, then you can handle it yourself,” Shi Qingluo chuckled.
It seemed that her sister-in-law’s marriage was settled.
In the past few days, news of Shi Qingluo and the Lu family had spread throughout Northern City.
It was not only the matter of Shi Qingluo bringing people to break the legs of the Lu family’s youngest son that spread, but also the matter at the temple where Miss Lu wanted to harm someone, but she fell into the water herself and had an affair with the Tu family’s son.
“Princess Fu Bao is really fierce, she actually brought people to attack the Lu family.”
“I’ve long heard that Princess Fubao dotes on her sister-in-law and treats her like her own sister. It’s normal for her to come knocking on their door when she’s bullied.”
“And if it wasn’t for Princess Fubao bringing people to attack, how would she know that the Lu Family’s Young Master was so shameless as to plot against her sister-in-law?”
“Don’t say, I really didn’t know that the Lu family’s young master was such a scum.”
“Isn’t the son of the Tu family a modest and polite noble son? But he has an affair with Miss Lu, who has a fiancé. You really can’t judge a book by its cover.”
...
“No wonder the Lu family and the Tu family have such a good relationship. They’re all jackals of the same feather.”
“Miss Lu’s engagement has been broken off, so she can finally be together with the Tu family’s young master.”
“Indeed. I heard that the Lu family and the Tu family had already arranged a marriage for the two of them yesterday.”
“It’s a pity that Miss Lu’s fiancé is cuckolded.”
“That’s right. I heard that he used to be quite attentive to Miss Lu. He often bought calligraphy, paintings, and jewelry to send to the Lu family, but they didn’t care about it.”
These people were laughing and laughing without restraint in the restaurant.
Two private rooms on the second floor.
Tu Lihuan and a few friends were sitting inside and eating. Naturally, they could vaguely hear the noise downstairs.
His face was dark and ugly. “Nonsense.”
He really had a lot to say. He and Miss Lu were clearly innocent, but they were splashed with such dirty water.
No one believed him even if he explained it to the outside world.
...
Xi Rui and Xiao Baili were too despicable. They had ruined the good reputation he had built over the years.
Tu Lihuan’s friends had followed him there that day and saw him hugging Miss Lu.
Therefore, they believed what the outside world said, but on the surface, they all smiled and advised, “Be true to yourself and don’t let it bother you.”
“Miss Lu is quite good-looking. You won’t lose out by marrying her.”
“I’ve long disliked that Li guy. You stole his fiancée, which means you’re better than him.”
“That’s right. Drink up, drink up, it is just a romantic affair for you. What’s there to be angry about?”
