CHAPTER XXXV

"What's wrong with my cousin, why is your face so pale?" Ah Sheng's shout alarmed Rong Jing, who was talking under the tree, and he rushed over and asked worriedly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Lu Zhendong's eyes stared at Lan Xin, who was following behind Rong Jing, and his unbelievable eyes contained grievances and resentment.

Lan Xin was very uncomfortable by his eyes, frowned unconsciously, and subconsciously leaned towards Rong Jing's side.

Rong Jing saw that Lu Zhendong didn't speak, just stared behind him. Turning around and following his line of sight, he smiled sideways and let Lan Xin out, and introduced, "Cousin, this is Miss Zhou." This is my cousin, my cousin is not in good health and has been recuperating in the bamboo courtyard, so you haven't seen him before. ”

Lan Xin curtsied, smiled and said to Rong Jing, "Since you have something to do here, I will go to Aunt Rong's courtyard." It was not too early, and after saying goodbye to my aunt, I went back. ”

"Well, okay. Rong Jing agreed softly.

Lan Xin smiled and nodded at Rong Jing, saluted Lu Zhendong again, and turned to leave.

Looking at the back that was gradually moving away, Lu Zhendong was resentful in his heart: How could she leave like this, without explanation, without apology, and without even giving herself a look, how could she be like this? I can only rub the purse under the sleeve vigorously to find the resentment in my heart.

Su Bo looked at the pale Lu Zhendong who was carried back by everyone, and his hands and feet were so frightened that his hands and feet were cold, and his breath was stuck in his throat, and he almost didn't exhale. Everyone was busy but not chaotic to carry people to the bed, and they asked for doctors and boiled medicine, and they were busy for a while.

"Su Bo, you see that the purse is about to be caught by the young master. Ah Sheng, who was wiping Lu Zhendong's hands with a warm handkerchief, said.

Hearing the word "purse", Lu Zhendong's empty eyes finally returned to focus. looked at Ah Sheng, whose eyes were red and swollen, looked at Su Bo who looked worried, and looked at the purse in his hand that was crumpled by himself, and felt a sense of loss in his heart.

Su Bo was overjoyed when he saw that the young master had come back to his senses. It's just that the expression on his face is half relaxed, and when he sees his young master's distraction, his face tenses again. pushed the ignorant Ah Sheng out of the door and led the door himself.

Lu Zhendong sat up, spread the purse in his hand on his lap, looked at the wrinkled purse, and regretted it in his heart. Carefully smoothed out the folds with his hands, and replayed the back of Lan Xin's departure in his mind, glad in his heart: fortunately he didn't stop her at that time. She and Cousin Jing had already been married, and at that time her parents had not yet had an accident, and the mother looked at her aunt's letter and happily thought about making a set of face-to-face gifts. What's more, he was wearing a mask that day, and she didn't know who he was at all.

Thinking of this, there was a wave of melancholy in her heart, yes, she didn't know him at all, and maybe she didn't remember the events of that day, right?! Thinking of this, Lu Zhendong only felt an indescribable pain in his heart. The more it hurts, the more he has to think about what happened to them together, and the more he thinks about it, the more he finds that there is nothing between them.

"Alas!" Su Bo sighed helplessly, and his heart was sour. Today's things in the garden are not secrets, and it is easy to find out. Seeing the young master like this, what else did he not understand? He sat on the pestle on the edge of the bed and asked softly, "Young master, do you still remember what the old master said at the beginning?"

Lu Zhendong glanced at Su Bo, turned his head to stare out the window, and said in a hoarse voice: "When I was young, I relied on my grandmother's favor and protection to cause trouble everywhere. After arriving in the capital, I still refused to restrain myself, and every time I got into trouble, my mother interceded for me, and I always had no fear. But every time my father would be furious. Once, he was so angry that he pointed at me with a whip and said, 'Little rabbit, I really think Lao Tzu can't cure you, do you? ’

I craned my neck and looked at my father unconvinced, and he said, 'Don't believe it now, one day, when you meet that person, you will know what it means to be powerful and have nowhere to go, and there is nowhere to fire.' I didn't expect my father to say a word, there would really be such a time. Tears rolled to the lips and flowed to the mouth, and a salty astringency filled the entire mouth. He misses the stern but loving man, and deplores the relationship that ended before it began.

"Young Master, do you think 'she' is that person?" Su Bo asked softly.

"She, is she?" Lu Zhendong sighed leisurely. He has always been reckless, never expected to fall in love at first sight, and fell deeper and deeper······

"Young Master, what did you say?" Ah Sheng asked timidly, staring at a pair of big innocent eyes.

Lu Zhendong came back to his senses, raised his hand to rub his hair, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, you go back to sleep early." Tomorrow is the plum blossom feast, and we will also go to see the plum blossoms in the courtyard. ”

"Well, I got it, young master. Ah Sheng agreed with a twinkle in his eyes.

Rong Zhijin handed the cloak to the maid at the door, changed into regular clothes and walked into the room, looked at Lu Shi on the couch, and said gently: "Why haven't you slept yet, didn't you ask you not to wait for me?"

"Oh, the lord is back. It wasn't until Rong Zhijin's hand touched Lu's hand that Lu came back to his senses.

"What do you want?" Rong Zhijin asked with a gentle smile, "It's so cold, let's rest." As he spoke, he took Lu's hand and walked to the bed.

"What were you thinking about just now, so engrossed?" After the two of them lay on the bed, Rong Zhijin looked sideways at Lu and asked.

"I want to think about Brother Dong'er!" Lu didn't hide it from him, "Brother Dong dropped the medicine bowl today, and when I went to look at it, Su Bo told me that he was making a fuss about going back to Beijing." ”

"Go back now, but who said anything to him?" Rong Zhijin asked with a frown.

"The people who serve in his courtyard are all carefully selected by me, and no one dares to speak casually. "The Lu family has always boasted of being strict in governing the family," he knew that the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law had come to Xuzhou, and he also brought Sister Jun'er, so he must have guessed something. The eldest sister-in-law in Lu's mouth is naturally the eldest lady of the Rong family, and the second sister-in-law is Lu Zaiye's wife.

"Brother Dong'er, he's not stupid, it's normal to guess. It's just that the New Year's Festival is coming soon, and the people in the shop are going to the house to reconcile the accounts, so that people know, and they think that we have treated him harshly, and his face is not good-looking. Rong Zhijin thought for a while and said.

"Don't worry, sir, I've thought about it. Lu said.
