Chapter 161: Don't dare to ask for extravagance
When Lu Yunqian felt a little unable to wait, Zhou Lang finally arrived in Jinzhou City.
She received a letter from Zhou Lang yesterday, saying that she would arrive today, so she was busy asking Xiaocui to wait at the gate of the house early this morning.
However, at three o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Cui received the long-standing Zhou Lang at the gate of the Overseer's Mansion.
When he was brought in, many little maids passing by blushed slightly, and hurried in the direction of him, hoping to say a word to him.
Zhou Langsheng is handsome, he is gentle and elegant on weekdays, and naturally he has won the love of many women, he is no longer surprised when he sees this, and he arched his hand towards the maids who blessed him, returned the salute slightly and continued to walk forward with a smile.
Coincidentally, as soon as I walked to Matsumado, I encountered the night scene that had just returned from an inspection in the barracks.
When Yejing saw him, he squinted his eyes slightly, and after a little hesitation, he guessed that this was Lu Yunqian's second brother, the man named Zhou Lang.
Zhou Lang saw that this person was dressed differently from others, and his body was shrouded in an extraordinary bearing, although he was handsome, but there was a cold taste between his eyebrows.
Guessing it in his heart, he took two steps forward and arched his hand towards the night view: "Overseer." ”
The night scene looked at Zhou Lang again, and then said with a smile: "It turned out to be Alain's second brother, I heard Alain talk about you." Why didn't the Zhou family come?"
He really wanted to see Lu Yunqian's husband, what kind of person was he who could be worthy of his Alan.
Zhou Lang frowned slightly, glanced at the night scene in confusion, and said:
"The eldest brother was arrested as early as the wedding night with his sister-in-law to be a strong man, and he has not returned for so many years. My sister-in-law has always been alone and widowed. Seeing that the Overseer and his sister-in-law have a good relationship, why didn't the sister-in-law tell the Overseer?"
After hearing this, Yejing's mind didn't know whether he was ecstatic or dazed, and his eyes vibrate.
He admired Li Xianglan and knew that she was married to a wife, and he never dared to ask for anything too much, nor did he dare to find someone to verify, for fear of disturbing her family and going back to put her in trouble.
I heard Xiaocui talk about it two days ago, and he also intercepted Zhou Lang's letters, and learned that the Zhou family only sent a younger brother to visit Li Xianglan, but her husband did not come forward.
At that time, I still had some doubts about why this was so, and I secretly felt sorry for her.
After suffering such a big injury, her husband never thought of coming to visit, nor did he say that he would take her back, if it was not for the bad relationship between the husband and wife, it was because her husband was sick and could not come.
But she never thought that her husband had been taken away, and maybe he would never come back.
In this way, Li Xianglan is probably the husband who has never seen her.
Thinking of this, the night scene was ecstatic in his eyes, and he didn't notice the ups and downs.
Today, seeing that her husband's younger brothers are so dusty, if her husband is still alive, the night scene will suddenly have no bottom in her heart.
So even with her brother, I was displeased for a while.
Zhou Lang observed this, but saw that the expression of the night scene was calm, ecstatic, and gradually turned to displeasure, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
After another moment, he saw that Yejing had not yet let him in, and that it was uncomfortable to stand under the poisonous sun, so he opened his mouth to Yejing: "What else does the Overseer command?"
Night Jing came back to his senses at this time: "Oh, no. ”
After speaking, he didn't move, so Zhou Lang had to speak again: "Overseer, can I go in now?"
Yejing sank his head slightly: "Well, let's go in." 89 Literary Network
Then he got up and walked inside, and Zhou Lang naturally followed him.
Turning around the pear blossom case, Zhou Lang glanced at the furnishings around.
The maid intimately opened the bead curtain for the two of them, and let Yejing and Zhou Lang walk in.
As soon as he lifted the bead curtain, he saw Lu Yunqian wearing a white satin pajama, covered with gauze, and his face was pale but he still looked at Zhou Lang who came in with a smile.
"Second brother. She called.
"Sister-in-law. Zhou Lang made a slight salute, seeing that she was much thinner than she had seen when she left before, and felt a speechless discomfort in her heart for a while.
"My sister-in-law suffered. He said.
"It doesn't matter. Lu Yunqian replied.
"Has my sister-in-law drunk the medicine properly?" Zhou Lang asked again.
Lu Yunqian was about to talk, but Ye Jing snatched a white on the side: "Naturally, there is good food, can it be that my Overseer's Mansion can still treat my life-saving benefactor badly?"
Zhou Lang immediately returned: "The Overseer doesn't dare to take this seriously. I'm just greeting my sister-in-law, we, as people, have always lived under the protection of the Overseer, how dare we say that we are the Overseer's savior? This is what our Zhou family should do. ”
A few words, separating Lu Yunqian's own relationship with the night scene, became a good word for the Zhou family's protector.
Lu Yunqian and Yejing both understood that Zhou Lang was for the sake of her reputation, she had lived in the Overseer's Mansion for a long time, although everyone knew that she had helped the Zhou family to help the Overseer all the way north, and they also knew that the Li family had been favored by the night scene and had given a jade pendant.
But she has lived in the Jinju City Governor's Mansion for a long time, and it is inevitable that people will arouse suspicion and doubt her reputation.
Although Ye Jing also knew that Zhou Lang was thinking about her reputation, she still had a bad feeling after listening to it.
He looked at the two of them and said, "You uncle and sister-in-law will talk first, and I'll go and see the meal prepared for lunch." ”
So he led the maids in the room to retreat, and reserved the space for the two of them to speak.
For a while, only Lu Yunqian, Zhou Lang and Xiaocui were left in the room.
Zhou Lang sat on a Nanmu stool next to the bed, looked at the room, and said to Lu Yunqian:
"Sister-in-law, I have seen that this house is often inhabited, and the series of toys placed on the wall are all famous products, and most of the furnishings are simple, without a trace of femininity, this should be the place where the Overseers stay, right?"
Lu Yunqian exclaimed that his good eyesight should still be explained, after all, in this era, it is not appropriate for a woman to live in a man's room after all, except for husband and wife.
So she nodded and said to Zhou Lang:
"The Overseers may have taken me seriously as a savior, and as soon as I ran out of the enemy camp I felt nothing, fainted, and woke up and lay here. In the past two days, the body has just been better, and it is not appropriate to move, otherwise it should be at home at this time. ”
Zhou Lang nodded slightly, showing a look of understanding, and said: "Sister-in-law doesn't need to explain, our Zhou family is open, and the eldest brother has been gone for so many years, there is no reason to let the sister-in-law stay widowed, and besides, you and the eldest brother have not succeeded, and they are not a real husband and wife." ”
"Sister-in-law should still think more about herself. ”
Lu Yunqian, who said this, suddenly had a row of black lines on his head: "Second brother, it's not ......"
Zhou Lang waved his hand and interrupted her: "Eh, sister-in-law, don't explain, I understand, I understand." ”
As he spoke, a meaningful smile appeared on his face.
