Chapter 274: Mother and Son
Mother Ding couldn't take this well, so she could only lower her head and continue to beat Mrs. Lu's legs. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info She knew that the old lady's dissatisfaction with the lady had affected the jade girl. The master and servant chatted with each other. The little girl opened the curtain and came in to report: "Old lady, the master has come to greet you." ”
"Well, let him in. The old lady replied lightly, and sighed nonchalantly.
Lu Sheng hurriedly walked in, bowed and saluted, "My son asks my mother for peace." Mrs. Lu beckoned her son to get up, and said with a smile: "Okay, get up quickly, why has this hour come?" opened her eyes and looked at her son with a radiant expression, as if the person who was drowsy and sad just now was not her.
"Yes, mother. Lu Sheng agreed and stood up. first glanced at Ding's mother, and saw that there was nothing unusual on her face, and felt a little more at ease. sat on the stool that Ding's mother let go, picked up the beauty hammer next to her, and beat her legs for Mrs. Lu. smiled and said, "My son saw that the lights in his mother's yard were still on, and he was worried that his mother was tired from today's banquet, so he came to take a look." ”
Mrs. Lu looked at the worry in her son's eyes, and her heart was ironed, no mother doesn't like to see her son filial to herself. But seeing his son wearing hospitality clothes and the sad face between his eyebrows, he felt sad and distressed. Suppressing the bitterness, he pretended to say casually: "What can my mother do?" It's just that at today's banquet, I encountered a few interesting things, and I just chatted with Ding's mother a few more words. He smiled and patted Lu Sheng's hand and told him not to worry.
Lu Sheng smiled and looked at Mrs. Lu carefully, seeing that there was nothing wrong with her face except for a few traces of tiredness, and her heart was finally put down. said with a smile: "Mother, don't talk too late, you should rest early." ”
"I know this, and you don't have to worry about me. If you are such a big person, will you not be able to take care of yourself?" Mrs. Lu said with a smile, "It's you, no matter how many official duties you have, you also have to pay attention to your body." ”
"Mother, don't worry, my son knows. Lu Sheng agreed with a smile, turned his head to see the things placed on the desk not far away, and asked curiously, "I remember that Yunjin was rewarded by the emperor when my son was in the capital. Why did my mother think of finding it out?"
"I thought about giving this brocade to the girl of the Yu family. She gave me such a beautiful pearl, I can't show it anymore. Old Madam Lu said with a smile, "Plus that pair of gold-inlaid jade-inlaid treasure bracelets, you should be able to get your hands on them." ”
"Mother!" Lu Sheng's heart couldn't help but sink, he knew that Old Madam Lu was making up for him during the day. Looking at her white-haired mother, who still has to worry about her own affairs, I feel even more guilty. Qiang Yan smiled and said: "Mother, that brocade is a royal gift, and it is earned by my son's merits, which is of great significance, you should keep it for yourself." We don't need to give that pair of bracelets, haven't we already sent the Mid-Autumn Festival gifts? Besides, our gifts are still very heavy!"
"Hehe!" Old Madam Lu was amused by him, shook her head, and said helplessly, "When did our brother Sheng become so stingy? Although that cloud brocade is precious, I can't use that color, so I might as well give it away! The temperament of that girl from my jade family is very compatible with this brocade, and giving it to her is not a disappointment of such good materials." ”
The mother and son tacitly did not mention the daytime affairs, let alone Mrs. Lu's inappropriateness. Lu Sheng thought for a while and said, "Since my mother thinks it's good, then listen to my mother's arrangement." ”
"Okay, then let Ding's mother send it over in person tomorrow. Old Madam Lu said with a smile, and secretly looked at the expression on Lu Sheng's face.
"Don't you need it, right?" Lu Sheng said in surprise, "You can tell Cuiying to run, and Mother Ding is old, so don't bother her to run back and forth." ”
"I asked her to go in person, there were other things she needed to do besides delivering things. Old Madam Lu restrained the smile on her face, sat up, and said solemnly. and glanced at Ding's mother, Ding's mother understood, and stood straight to the door.
"I don't know what my mother wants Ding's mother to do?" Lu Sheng was frightened by Mrs. Lu's sudden change of attitude, but after years of experience in officialdom, he has developed the ability to pamper and not be shocked. There was still a faint smile on his face.
Mrs. Lu didn't beat around the bush, and said straight to the point: "I saw that girl today not only advanced and retreated, but also her rules and etiquette were very good, even slightly better than some girls from big families in the capital. Looking at the confusion on Lu Sheng's face, Mrs. Lu sighed secretly in her heart, it seemed that her stupid son hadn't noticed these at all. "So, I think there should be a nurturing grandmother who came out of the palace in her house. ”
"Do you want Mother Ding to meet that nurturing grandmother?" Lu Sheng asked in surprise, seeing Mrs. Lu nodding. He pondered for a moment and said, "No need, right? Master Yu's person is righteous and thin, and even his son, who meets in Pingshui, he can lend a hand." Presumably, he will have no shortage of good karma. It is not surprising that there are a few people who know the people in the palace, or that those people have received his favor before entering the palace. My son heard that those old servants of the Yu family, even if the lord and wife of the Yu family are gone, they have not left the Yu family and have been guarding the Yu family!"
"Well, there's some truth to that. Old Madam Lu nodded and said, "But Brother Sheng, have you ever thought that although the emperor is in the prime of life, he is also in good health. But several princes in the palace have slowly grown up, and there is only one position. Succession has always been a river of blood. Mother hopes that you will be a pure minister, don't stand in line in advance, and don't get involved in the things.
But this doesn't mean that others will let you go?! You sought the position of Jiangzhou prefect and made such a big move, and you maintained the Yu family everywhere. Since ancient times, there has never been a shortage of smart people. If someone with a heart discovers your true purpose of coming to Jiangzhou, and makes a fuss about this matter. Have you ever thought about the consequences? Don't forget, the Fang family also used to bite the position of Jiangzhou prefect.
The ups and downs of officialdom, you know better than your mother. So, I'm going to send Ding's mother on a trip. Take a look at the grandmother in the palace with your own eyes, and know who she is. It's better to take precautions in advance, so as not to provoke yourself and not know it. ”
"Well, it's still thoughtful. Lu Sheng nodded and said.
