Chapter 109 Unexpected request

Aunt Xin nodded with relief, lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then raised her eyes and said softly: "Tianfeng, Auntie wants to ask you for something later. Auntie heard that you know how to recognize your bones. Can you tell me the bones first?"

Lu Qi was stunned and couldn't help but look at Dongqing. Dongqing's pretty face changed and hurriedly said, "Young Master, Dongqing has never said anything."

Lu Qi smiled and said, "Holly, I didn't blame you. Aunt Xin is not an outsider."

Holly said lightly, and still lowered her head with uneasy on her pretty face.

Lu Qi turned his head and smiled at Aunt Xin and said, "Aunt, the bone-recognition technique I know is to test whether a person's roots and bones are suitable for practicing qigong, but not the bone-touching magic technique that cuts off people's fortunes and disasters."

Aunt Xin nodded and said softly: "Auntie knows that I am a little interested in your Qigong. If my aunt is suitable for practicing, I hope you can teach you how to practice."

Lu Qi said lightly, knowing that Aunt Xin must have known Dongqing's superpowers and wanted to practice. He hesitated for a moment. It was hard to say no to refuse. Just as he was thinking, a fair hand had reached in front of him. He felt helpless, so he had to reach out his left hand and hold the four fingers of the jade hand, pointing the middle of his right hand towards the acupoint of the palm of his hand.

When he was in the middle point, Aunt Xin only let out a slight muffled groan. This perseverance of suffering made Lu Qi admire him. His eyes were staring at him and his face looked surprised. A little vermilion appeared on the palm of Aunt Xin's palm. According to the Dan Book, vermilion was a superior fire physique, which really surprised Lu Qi.

"How is it? Is my root bone suitable for practicing qigong?" Aunt Xin asked in a gentle tone, but her eyes were looking at Lu Qi.

"My aunt's roots are of the best fire genus, and it should be suitable for cultivation." The facts were right in front of her. Although Lu Qi was surprised, she could only tell the truth. In her heart, he did not want to practice with Aunt Xin, after all, Aunt Xin was an elder.

"Is that true? I can practice your qigong." Aunt Xin said anxiously.

Lu Qi hesitated for a moment and nodded, "You can practice, but practicing that kind of qigong has a certain failure rate. If you fail, you will likely die. Tianfeng does not want his aunt to take this danger."

After hearing Lu Qi's dissuasion, Aunt Xin frowned and said, "Don't you want to teach me?"

Lu Qi hesitated for a moment and said frankly: "Yes, practicing that kind of qigong is dangerous. Once my aunt has something to do, I will be ashamed of Yun'er. In addition, that kind of qigong is practiced by men and women. Tianfeng cannot blaspheme my aunt."

Aunt Xin turned her head to look at the door of the house with a gloomy expression, and after a while, she said softly: "Tianfeng, do you know what I want to ask for you?"

Lu Qi said in harmony: "What my aunt wants is to practice qigong."

"No, I want to ask you for me and take me as a concubine." Aunt Xin said softly, her tone was extremely calm.

Lu Qi was stunned, and then looked at Aunt Xin in surprise. Dongqing next to him also reached out to cover her mouth with her hand, and looked at Aunt Xin in disbelief.

"Are you surprised? Do you feel ashamed? Do you think I'm crazy?" Aunt Xin looked at Lu Qi calmly, and spit out a string of them gently.

"No, aunt, why do you say this?" Lu Qi was caught off guard by the bombardment and responded in panic. He always respected Aunt Xin in his heart.

"You are right. I want to live, I want to live freely, so I beg you to take me as a concubine." Aunt Xin said with a little excited expression.

Lu Qiyi frowned, calmed down, thought for a while, and then said in a harmonious voice: "Aunt, I find it difficult to accept what you said. Can you tell me, what happened to you? I will definitely have a way to help you."

Aunt Xin looked twisted and said softly: "I originally wanted Yun'er to convince you to ask me, but today you come, I beg you directly. I don't want to say some reasons for misfortune to make you sympathize with you, and you don't need to say that I am an elder and cannot ask me. My reason is very simple. I like your righteousness and trustworthiness, and your song of spring. Now I am in trouble, so I beg you to become my safe haven. I hope to survive freely in the second half of my life."

After hearing this, Lu Qi remained silent. Aunt Xin’s request was unacceptable. After a moment of silence, he said in harmony: “Aunt, you have a big disaster, I can use other methods to help you.”

Aunt Xin shook her head muffled and said, "You can only help me if you want me. If you refuse to ask me, I don't need to tell you why I begged you. I can only take on my own responsibility."

Lu Qi frowned and said nothing. Unexpectedly, Aunt Xin was so stubborn. After a while, Aunt Xin sighed softly: "Tianfeng, you should be a heroic and decisive man. You should talk at most about not. Please tell me quickly."

"Didn't this force me?" Lu Qi felt unhappy in his heart, and thought for a while and raised his eyes and said seriously: "Do Yun'er know what you want?"

"Yun'er knows it, but I don't want her to feel guilty after you reject her. This is my business and I should bear it myself." Aunt Xin said softly with a calm expression.

Lu Qi turned his head and looked elsewhere and thought. In fact, he also knew that women were following their husbands. In the customs of the Tang Dynasty, the fact that the relatives and women of the clan and relatives were not violated by marriage etiquette, because the relationship between the female relatives of the large clan and the official family was almost unreasonable.

But this kind of thing was on Lu Qi's turn, and he was psychologically unwilling to accept it. If Aunt Xin was Xin Yun'er's distant relative or was not familiar with the Lu family, it would be difficult to take it as a concubine, but he was too familiar with it. Once he was taken to marry the Lu family, it would be an embarrassing thing.

"Young Master, Aunt Xin is such a good person, you want it." Dongqing next to her suddenly spoke softly.

Lu Qi looked at Dongqing in a daze. Seeing that Dongqing's pretty face was slightly red, his expression was embarrassing, but his eyes were bright and untimid. For some reason, Lu Qi and Dongqing's eyes looked at each other with a kind of clear and heart-warming comfort, and he felt very kind and trustworthy.

"Holly, I will marry Aunt Xin as my concubine. Don't you feel embarrassed when you get along with me in daily life?" Lu Qi said in harmony.

Dongqing said softly: "Young Master, this matter is not embarrassing. Dongqing remembers that a man from a neighbor's house passed away. The mother and daughter of the neighbor married Mr. Bao as concubines. They have always had no worries about food and clothing. No one is laughing at this matter. If a woman marrys into a woman from that family, no one cares about her previous generation."

Lu Qi smiled helplessly, "Other people's home is someone else's home, but he is not someone else's home."

Suddenly, Aunt Xin said softly: "Tianfeng, if you want me, I will not stay in Shida County's residence. I just want a orthodox destination for the soul to rely on when I grow old, and I will become your concubine. I can have a legal official identity and guide, and I can visit mountains, rivers and ancient sites with freedom, and pursue my dream of joy."

Lu Qi was stunned and said in surprise: "Auntie wants to travel with a free body."

"Yes, although I am a daughter, I yearn for the heroic and heroic direction of men. I beg you to ask for me. First, you are very similar to my dream husband back then. Back then, I admire the heroes and warriors and hate vain and untrue literati and poets. Second, traveling around requires the status of an official to be worry-free. Third, traveling requires a lot of money. Only by being your concubine can I ask you for money with a clear conscience. Fourth, I am a woman, and I really want to find a family I like to live for the rest of my life." Aunt Xin said softly.

After hearing this, Lu Qi pondered for a while, nodded and said, "Since you don't mind me, I'm willing to ask you."

Aunt Xin didn't like her and looked a little sad and sad, and said bitterly: "Tianfeng, today I am a very shameless woman, don't laugh at me."

Lu Qi thrust his waist slightly and looked at her and said in a stern voice: "If I had the intention to laugh at you, I would never ask you for it. I admire you very much for being frank and pursuing my own happiness. I don't like hypocrisy, but I often live in hypocrisy."

Aunt Xin said bitterly: "If this world is not hypocritical, it will suffer. Almost everyone lives in hypocrisy. Among the people I have seen, only Holly treats people sincerely and selflessly."

Dongqing was stunned and his pretty face lowered his head embarrassedly. Lu Qi looked at Dongqing and smiled. It was because of Dongqing's pure and honesty that he bought Dongqing to save Xiaoyun. He was not a sincere gentleman, but he liked the people around him to be innocent and honest, which would allow his heart to have a peaceful rest.
