I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

Chapter 405: Marriage, Bai Luozhi challenges Bai A Niang.

"No!" Bai Luofu hurriedly jumped off the wooden bed and ran to Bai Luozhi barefoot.

"Sister, give it back to me."

He reached out and snatched the wooden box, but when he saw the chipped corner of the box, a sense of inexplicable grievance surged in his heart.

Bai Luofu held the wooden box tightly in her arms, squatted down and began to sob.

It’s not that she didn’t think about opening the wooden box to take a look, she was just a little scared.

As long as she doesn't know what's inside, this wooden box will always be a memory that Li Mu left for her.

She was very scared because there was something in the wooden box that she couldn't accept.

At this time, Bai Luozhi on the side slowly frowned, then picked up Bai Luofu with one hand and snatched the wooden box away:

"This smell..."

"Sister, what are you doing!"

"Stand back, there is a deadly poison in this box!"

At this time, the fingertips of Bai Luozhi's hand that was dragging the wooden box had turned light green, and one could vaguely see a layer of true qi as thin as a cicada's wing attached to his hand.

The peach branch pattern between the eyebrows was faintly visible, and it was obvious that he attached great importance to the poison in the wooden box.

She was familiar with all kinds of poisonous insects and weeds, and she felt that the smell in the box was very familiar, but she just couldn't remember it.

"Sister~"

Bai Luofu's tears were streaming down her face in anxiety. She grabbed Bai Luozhi's skirt with both hands, her eyes full of pleading.

"What does this Zhongzhou person mean?"

Bai Luozhi looked at Bai Luofu, hesitated for a moment and said firmly,

"You were unconscious just now, probably because of the poison in this box."

"Impossible, little brother wouldn't do that!" Upon hearing this, Bai Luofu opened her mouth to defend Li Mu, but her chubby little face had already turned pale.

"You can only know a person's face but not his heart! He knows the secret of Mang Gu..."

Bai Luozhi's face was grim, and his silver teeth were clenching.

"Humph! With the blood-clotting Gu, it's no wonder that he's so cruel and ruthless! I wanted to kill you before..."

"Sister, brother, no, I won't..."

Bai Luofu wanted to go forward and grab the wooden box, but she had already burst into tears.

"Stay back!"

Bai Luozhi pushed Bai Luofu back onto the wooden bed, fully activated his innate Gu, and raised his hand to open the wooden box.

Bai Luofu couldn't see what was in the wooden box. She only saw Bai Luozhi's pupils suddenly shrink, as if she had seen something extremely terrifying.

"Sister?"

Bai Luofu didn't dare to step forward. She couldn't accept this reality, and her soft voice was filled with despair.

"what?"

"Ah...sister..."

Bai Luozhi's voice was trembling a little, and it seemed that he didn't know what to say.

Seeing this, Bai Luofu closed her eyes, stretched out her hand to Bai Luozhi with a trembling voice, and said stubbornly:

"Give me back the box!"

Then there was a snap.

Bai Luozhi closed the box with force, then held it in his arms as if it were a treasure.

"Sister, actually, sister and little Ning have known each other for a long time. She is really easy to get along with. Mother, mother likes her very much too."

"My brother-in-law... Although he looks a little weak, he can still take medicine and take care of himself... Bah! I can teach you how to express your true feelings."

Bai Luozhi swallowed, his tone somewhat awkward.

"???"

"Sister?"

Bai Luofu was stunned for a moment, then opened her eyes and looked at Bai Luozhi.

At this moment, the voice of a woman from the tribe suddenly came from outside the house:

"Sister Luo Zhi, Sister Luo Zhi!"

Hearing the voice, Bai Luozhi subconsciously hugged the wooden box in his arms tighter, frowned and shouted:

"What's up!"

"Sister Luo Zhi, you are really here! The clan leader asked me to ask you and Xiao Afu to go to the clan hall, saying that there is something important."

The woman outside the house was panting a little, and it was obvious that she had searched many places before finding this place.

Although Bai Luozhi had doubts, she did not dare to neglect it. It was already past the hour of Hai, and looking for them at this time was obviously something important.

He looked at Bai Luofu on the bed and said loudly:

"I understand. I'll go there with my sister right away!"

"Sister, wasn't mother discussing something with the Manwu clan before? Why are you asking us to come over now? Is that right..."

"What is it!"

Bai Luozhi glared at Bai Luofu with a tone of admonition.

"The previous marriage has been cancelled. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will teach you a lesson on behalf of my brother-in-law!"

"Brother-in-law?"

Bai Luofu's eyes were full of confusion. From the beginning, Bai Luozhi had been calling him brother-in-law. She instinctively thought that this brother-in-law should refer to Li Mu, but she also felt that was not right.

"Remember not to talk nonsense again, otherwise this will get to your brother-in-law's ears..."

Bai Luozhi's eyes fell on the wooden box in his arms, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up, and his tone softened a lot.

"Although my brother-in-law is reasonable, as a wife, you must know how to maintain your husband's face. Sister will help you explain that the previous engagement was a mistake. You need to change your temper!"

Although Bai Luofu had no idea what was going on, she felt dizzy just by hearing the words "wife" and "husband".

He didn't even know how he got to the clan temple with Bai Luozhi.

"Mother, are you looking for me?"

Bai Luozhi strode forward and glanced at the other people present with disdain in his eyes.

The first one was a middle-aged woman who looked to be around 40 years old. If it weren’t for Bai Luozhi calling her “mother”, the two of them would have looked more like sisters.

Bai A Niang nodded slightly, but her expression was not good. She glanced at Bai Luofu who was still a little dizzy and said in a deep voice:

"Fu Fu's wedding to the Miao tribe leader is scheduled for the middle of this month. My mother is busy with tribe affairs, so I'll leave this matter to you..."

"Auntie!"

Unexpectedly, before Bai A Niang finished speaking, Bai Luozhi interrupted her and said,

"This is all a misunderstanding. Let the daughter of whomever family should marry marry!"

"Bai Luozhi! Don't forget your identity. The clan leader only asked you to take charge, not to say anything!"

At this time, a fat middle-aged woman next to Bai A Niang pointed at Bai Luozhi and started scolding her.

Then he looked at Bai A Niang, as if saying, "You are the one who should discipline my daughter."

A gloomy look flashed across Bai A Niang's eyes, and the fists hidden in her sleeves were clenched so tightly that they made a creaking sound.

However, for the sake of the medical witch family's interests, she could do nothing about it.

The girl who was originally chosen was not from the Bai family, and the one planted with her was just an ordinary Mang Gu that all girls from the Yiwu clan would have.

Under pressure from the elders, they replaced the candidate with Bai Luofu.

It seemed that the reason for the temporary change was because Bai Luofu suddenly interrupted the discussion that day and said a few more words.

In fact, this was a plan that the elders in the clan had already made.

Besides, the one who needed the twins was Bai Luofu's grandmother, so Bai Luofu had no choice but to agree.

On the surface, it seems that he wanted to get the help of Manwu clan to achieve a twin, but secretly, he wanted to control Manwu clan.

After all, the reputation of the women in the Bai family is not that good.

The rumor that she would bring bad luck to her husband and cause him to have a short life is no secret among the entire witch clan.

Therefore, this marriage is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for both the Manwu clan and the Medical Wu clan.

Both parties had their own ulterior motives, and each thought that they had schemed against the other.

"Zhizhi, this matter has been decided. You just need to take care of it for your sister. You don't need to worry about the rest."

Bai A Niang spoke calmly, her tone dignified and unquestionable.

"I have something I want to talk to you privately. Can you please..."

"Bai Luozhi, you are too presumptuous! Are you sure you want to contradict the clan leader in public!"

Before Bai Luozhi could finish speaking, the fat black woman spoke again with a very harsh tone.

"Auntie!"

However, Bai Luozhi ignored her and kept his eyes on Bai A Niang who was sitting in the first seat.

"That's enough!" Bai A Niang shouted coldly.

"It's settled. Since you don't want to, I'll let someone else do it!"

"From today on, you will kneel at the altar. You are not allowed to come back without my order!"
