Chapter 8 Reflections
Lu Yalan's tears suddenly bubbled out like spring water in the mountains, she couldn't stop it, and her snot also fell, and this delicate face had no beauty at this time.
Lu Yalan covered her sleeves like a thief at first, but then she simply gave up, she stared at Qian's mother, and her choked voice gradually turned into a roar: "Pile by pile, do you think I don't know? I always think, if I treat you better, you will treat me better, even if it is less than half of Ah Xiang, as long as you care about me, I will be happy." You are my nurse, my closest person, I respect you, I rely on you, I trust you. What about you, do you think I'm a marionette in your hands, don't you, you are very proud of cultivating the second miss of the Lu family in Yancheng and the concubine of the celebrity Lu Anbang into two woods, aren't you?"
Lu Yalan cried and roared: "Don't you know what I'm doing in Yilan Garden? But whenever you open your mouth, I will be grateful, but what about you, you just watched, and never reached out to help." These people are accomplices, and you are the culprit. Beat me, beat me hard, kill me! Ermu is loud enough, what reputation, I don't want it!"
Lu Yalan knew that she was very embarrassed, but she didn't care, seeing the executioner stunned aside, she swept her eyes, and the executioner was full of excitement, and without saying a word, she pulled up Ah Xiang and the others and began to get on the board.
The second aunt covered the smile at the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief, although she deviated from the plan and did not save Ah Xiang, but the gain was not small, she didn't expect Lu Yalan to lose her temper on the spot.
This is interesting, if today's matter spreads out, the reputation of the second miss of the Lu family is over, and there will be no place to stand among the noble ladies of Yancheng, that person should be very happy to know. The second aunt squinted her eyes too much and decided to add another fire.
She ignored Lu Yalan's face and said leisurely: "Since the second miss wants to act according to the rules, then the subordinates who intervene casually can't let go, second miss, you won't use the public to help the private, right!
The second aunt walked out behind her, and a few people were about to hold down the red apricot palm.
Lu Yalan didn't understand why the second aunt always couldn't get along with herself, new hatred and old hatred came to her heart, she pushed away the woman who was holding the red apricot, and pounced on the second aunt, "I'll fight with you!"
Crying scratched the face of the second aunt.
The second aunt's screams woke up the stunned crowd, pulling Lu Yalan, playing the board, watching the excitement, and the scene was extremely chaotic.
Lu Yabai didn't understand, he just stayed in the scene for a while, how did it become like this.
Fu Ren Tang
Hearing the maid's report, the tea held by the old lady was not delivered to her mouth for a long time, "You say, who scratched the second aunt's face?"
The maid repeated it again.
After sending the maid away, the old lady sighed: "It's too much!" After a pause, she said: "You go and pass on my order, today's events will rot in my stomach, and no one is allowed to say it." β
Qin's mother hesitated: "There are a lot of people present today, I'm afraid it's hard to ban." β
"It's hard to forbid it, it's also forbidden, there are more than two unmarried girls in our family, and we can't spread it out and bring the reputation of the Lu family's girls. β
At this time, the open space of the outer house was empty, and it seemed that even the popularity had been taken away, and only the deserted remained.
Lu Yabai blamed himself a little, he knew that it would be this kind of result and didn't force the second sister, he looked at the second sister's red-swollen eyes and pitiful nose, and couldn't help but rub the top of her head, "Don't be afraid, there is a brother." β
"Hmm!" Lu Yalan sniffed and nodded heavily.
Lu Yabai left intimately, leaving the space to the master and servant.
Lu Yalan looked left and right, and there was no one around.
She and Hongxing glanced at each other, and the two flew towards each other at the same time, Lu Yalan cried and laughed, "Hongxing, have you seen it, I can protect you!"
"Mmmm, Miss is so brave today!"
The two hugged each other and cried and laughed, but anyone who came over might think that they had met two crazy people.
There were rows of evergreen trees planted in the middle of the clearing and the connecting gate, and no one noticed that there were people behind them.
"Hey, did you see it, that little girl is very interesting. The man who spoke was dressed in a straight military uniform, but he spoke with a ruffian.
"It's called Adjutant Pastor. Mu Chengyao originally asked Lu Yabai to communicate about the transportation of military rations, but he didn't expect to watch such a big show.
"Isn't it like there are no outsiders? Boss, do you have a crush on someone, staring at someone without blinking? Without waiting for Mu Chengyao to speak, he said, "Hey, boss, it turns out that you have such a strong taste." β
Mu Chengyao glanced at the other party coldly, and successfully shut up people.
"Let's go, it's time to get down to business. Mu Chengyao was the first to leave.
Miss Lu Jia's second lady seems to be quite interesting.
The residence of Lu Shibang, Vice Minister of Shanghai Ministry of Communications
The third lady, Lu Yazhu, got out of the car at the door wearing a fashionable dress with a small parasol, and her admirer politely opened the car door for her, got a sweet smile and left intoxicated.
Lu Yazhu walked across the lawn humming a little song, and the maid who had been waiting for a long time immediately followed.
"Is there news from my hometown?" Lu Yazhu stopped at the fountain in a good mood, and the water droplets that spewed out were shining in the sun, looking more and more exquisite.
"Miss is smart, there was news just now, and the second lady looked crazy in front of her. β
Telegrams are expensive, and the shorter the better, and this one is no exception, only a few words, but Lu Yazhu smiled, she seemed to be on the scene to see the embarrassed Lu Yalan, which made her feel better.
Lu Yalan, women in the old society like you should disappear with the remnants of feudalism, why can you live better than me in the previous life. It seems that Zhao Dingsheng's divorce has a great impact on you, that's right, I'm going to take all your things. Those things, you ignorant woman don't deserve at all!
Lu Yazhu seemed to see the high-spirited Zhao Dingsheng in his previous life shopping with Lu Yalan through the fountain water curtain, and he carefully protected Lu Yalan for fear that his wife would be bumped, and she could only hide in a dark corner and watch.
In this life, Zhao Dingsheng will not be cheap even if I don't want it, I want to see what you should do without the reasonable Zhao Dingsheng and his reputation!
Lu Yazhu smiled at the little boy sculpture in the center of the fountain and whispered a few words to the maid.
Lu Yalan didn't know anything about this, in fact, she was in a good mood now.
The second lady scratched the face of the second aunt and knew all about it the next day, Lu Yalan thought that when the matter spread, others would think she was crazy, or scold her for being vicious, but according to the news from Hongxing, there are not a few people who say this, but there are still some people who think that this is an outbreak of honest people.
She was ready to have a complete reputation, but she really didn't expect anyone to stand on her side.
Lu Yalan found that once people figure it out, they will find that the world is not as pessimistic as they imagined.
If it was before, she would have been terrified, and she wanted to kneel in front of her second aunt and ask for forgiveness, but since she let herself go, she felt that life like this was not bad.
Let go of herself, this word comes from the young lady in her memory, Lu Yalan feels that it is very in line with her current situation.
Although she doesn't go out these days, what she wants, as long as Hongxing goes to say it, she can send it immediately, the hot-steaming oolong tea, the fragrant cloud cake, are all the food she has been thinking about for a long time but is worried about troublesome others, and she is even more worried that no one will send it if she wants it, so she has not eaten the food to her mouth.
"Hongxing, I think the current life is good, no one is angry with us, eat whatever you want, I knew that this would make people not make small moves, I would have done it a long time ago. I have endured it for more than ten years, and I don't know if I have breast cancer. β
"Miss, what's breast cancer?"
Lu Yalan thought about it, in fact, she didn't know it herself, but the young lady in her memory often said this when she was angry when she was a maid, so she remembered it.
"This is just a disease, it has nothing to do with us, don't worry about it. Why are you frowning all the time?"
Hongxing's attention was easily diverted, and she was worried: "Miss, what should we do in the future, the old lady hasn't spoken now, I'm a little worried, and the second aunt, the more she doesn't move, the more panicked I become." β
From the time of illness to now, the two of them have been busy recuperating and have never spoken properly, no matter what Lu Yalan did, Hongxing didn't ask anything, just silently followed her behind to support her, Lu Yalan knew that Hongxing was worried.
Lu Yalan thought for a while and asked, "Hongxing, do you want to live the future?"
Hongxing said without hesitation: "Of course I follow Miss, when Miss gets married, I will be your housekeeper, and I will take care of Miss for the rest of my life." β
Hongxing's parents died, and she couldn't survive and could only plant grass and sell her body, but unfortunately no one would ask a child who had not broken milk to be a maid, she was hungry for four days, if it weren't for Lu Yalan, I'm afraid she would have died a long time ago.
When Miss gave her buns, she decided that she would follow Miss for the rest of her life.
When Lu Yalan had the most difficult time, Hongxing was bullied even worse, she once asked Hongxing if she wanted to leave, and even if she left, she would not complain about her. That's what Hongxing said at the time.
Although I have heard this answer more than once, there is still a warm current flowing into Lu Yalan's heart when I hear it again.
Lu Yalan held Hongxing's hand and said: "You know best what we used to do, but it's still like this in our own family, if we really get married, I'm afraid it's worse than at home." In fact, we all understand that we don't complain about others when we live like this, but only complain that I can't stand up myself. β
"Miss, don't say that, it's those people who are stealing and tricking an inch. β
Lu Yalan shook her head: "Maybe because I didn't have my parents to take care of me since I was a child, I was very rare for others to be good to me, and when I was a child, Mother Qian treated me well, so I always remember her kindness and respond to her needs." I thought about how much better I would be to others, whether others could be better to me, and with this kind of thought, I would hardly refuse other people's requests, and I was embarrassed to trouble others, and slowly, I forgot that I was also a human being, and I also had my own ideas. β
Lu Yalan took a sip of tea and continued, she seemed to be saying it to Hongxing and to herself: "I longed to marry Zhao Dingsheng, not only because he was my fiancΓ©, but also because I desperately wanted to escape from this family, so I was desperate for a while after he quit the marriage." But this serious illness made me figure it out, if I keep going like this, no matter what kind of environment I change to, I may be in the nest for a lifetime, and Qian's mother and second aunt are too pressing, I don't want to endure it, and I don't know how to fight back, so I will be so excited. β
