Chapter 13: The Trap

Old lady Gu took her granddaughter's soft little hand, after all, it was a child, it would be good if the nun could recognize it. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Old Lady Gu said softly, "What if the nun can't recognize it?"

Mother Lu raised her head, just in time to see the eldest lady straighten up, cover her mouth with her palm, and say a few words in Old Madam Gu's ear.

Old Lady Gu frowned, and then sighed.

Langhua shook Old Lady Gu's arm impatiently, "If she doesn't tell the truth, let the government come to trial, so be it," said and begged Old Lady Gu, "Let's go, grandmother will accompany me to play pottery balls!" ”

Mother Lu took a quick look at Gu Langhua, Gu Langhua twisted like a twist in Mrs. Gu's arms, obviously unable to sit still. The child listened to the adult in a serious way, and he had already lost patience after an hour.

Mother Lu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Old Mrs. Gu was overwhelmed by Langhua, so she had to instruct Mother Jiang, "Take people down, lock them up separately, and don't allow anyone to see them, and tell the fake nun that if you can't recognize the person who bought her, don't want to get out of the Gu family alive." ”

Jiang's mother answered.

Seeing that Mother Lu was about to be taken away, Mother involuntarily stood up, and Mother Lu shouted with tears in her eyes, "Mrs." ”

The mother also wiped her tears, looked at Mrs. Gu and stopped talking.

Old Mrs. Gu had a calm face, "If it has nothing to do with her, let her out, if her charges are confirmed, then it will be your turn to cry." ”

The mother's gaze was not withdrawn until she followed Mother Lu out of the house, her face was painful and dazed, as if she had torn something from her body by force.

Langhua can understand her mother's feelings, after all, Lu's mother is the person her mother trusts the most. Being betrayed by someone she trusts, she knows the pain better than anyone else.

Langhua wanted to distract her mother and stretched out her hand, "Mother will go with us to play pottery!"

The mother barely had a smile on her face, and told the maid to get the pottery ball, her eyes kept wandering on Langhua's face, "This child is just sick, why is he so energetic." ”

In Langhua's impression, her mother seems to have been immersed in the grief of losing her father, no matter what happens, the first thing she mentions is her father, who is either desperate to get angry, or complains and grief, so she began to take medicine constantly before the age of thirty. It was because of her mother's poor health that she always took her mother with her.

In this life, she hopes to make her mother happy.

But there are some paths that must be taken, such as clearing the plague around her and her mother.

Langhua carefully recalled what Lu's mother had done in her previous life, after she married Lu Ying, Lu's mother followed her mother and she had been working in the Lu family's house, she wanted Lu's mother to take care of her mother wholeheartedly, and she also took out a piece of money from her own body to Lu's mother, Lu's mother was very attentive and had always taken good care of her mother, so she asked Lu Ying to find an errand for Lu's mother's two sons in the Lu family.

Now think about it, and my heart aches.

Langhua put aside her thoughts and tried her best to think about the people and things related to Lu's mother. The third aunt has always been not very satisfied with Lu's mother, she remembers that one year in the first month, the third aunt came to the door to ask for money, Lu's mother stopped the third aunt at the door, the third aunt scolded, and counted Lu's mother's dog power.

Mother Lu didn't seem to have done anything to benefit the third aunt, but when she had time, she asked her to think of driving the third uncle's family out of the capital and letting them go back to their hometown in Zhenjiang.

In this way, the third aunt should have nothing to do with this matter.

So, who is the person behind Lu's mother?

Langhua stabilized Lu's mother, just to get the answer one step closer.

First, she had to find the person who could help her find out.

Langhua raised his hand and rubbed his head.

Immediately came the kind voice of my grandmother in my ears, "Quickly bring the pillow, let the young lady lean on, the illness is not cured and tossed, if it is serious, it will kill me." ”

Before Langhua could lie down, Old Lady Gu was already coughing.

Mother hurriedly brought tea forward, everyone helped Mrs. Gu to lie down on the kang, Langhua looked at the tired grandmother, and felt very sad.

Grandmother's body is already very weak, and she is also taking care of her, Langhua gently took her grandmother's hand, I really hope that my grandmother can get better soon, so that she has the opportunity to be filial piety in front of the bed.

Langhua clasped his hands together, and the pharmacist Liuli Guang came, I beg you to let your grandmother be healthy and live a long life.

When the grandmother fell asleep and the mother left the house, Langhua got up lightly and beckoned Amo to come over.

Ah Mo served Lang Hua very cleverly and put on his shoes, and the master and servant walked to the warm pavilion before Lang Hua spoke, "Ah Mo, I want to eat bee candy cake." ”

Ah Mo nodded and went out, and after a while, Kung Fu Jiang's mother came over with a smile, "Miss wants to eat bee sugar cake?" It's late today, if you don't eat some cheese first, I'll ask someone to go to the West Market to buy it early tomorrow morning." ”

"Don't," Langhua deliberately angry, "I don't want to eat cheese...... I'm going to eat bee candy cake with nuts. ”

Mother Jiang said in a low voice: "Miss, I'll let people sprinkle some sugar on the cheese, you can taste it." ”

Langhua puffed up his face, "No...... Without bee candy cake, I don't want to take medicine tonight. ”

Mother Jiang suddenly looked embarrassed, and Mo next to her suddenly remembered, "Mother Jiang, I know who would make that kind of bee candy cake with nuts, otherwise I will call her...... It's just that she...... Large kitchen in the outer courtyard all year round...... I'm afraid ......"

Looking at Miss Gu's frowning eyebrows, Mother Jiang was helpless, so she had to agree, "Go quickly, no matter who it is, let her make a bee candy cake and send it to Miss." ”

**

Lu Ying carefully traced the wings of the butterfly one by one, and the butterfly was lifelike, as if it was about to fly high with its wings.

"Young Master. ”

Cheng Yi said in a low voice: "Old Lady Gu has already decided not to leave Zhenjiang?"

Lu Ying nodded, "It seems that I am not going to leave." ”

Cheng Yi was very puzzled, "Didn't the second wife say that Mrs. Gu had already asked people to pack up ......"

Lu Ying also felt strange, "It may have changed my mind temporarily." Speaking of this, he couldn't help but think of Gu Langhua's clear eyes, and the old lady Gu would change her mind because of Gu Langhua's words.

Cheng Yi said: "The whole Gu family is rumored that Miss Gu is a pharmacist Liuliguang Rulai. ”

Lu Ying gently blew away the vermilion gathered on the paper, "Does Mr. believe it?"

Cheng Yi laughed, "I naturally don't believe it, if there is a Bodhisattva in this world, the main family doesn't need us people to give advice, as long as you burn incense every day and worship it, you will get twice the result with half the effort." ”

Lu Ying put down the pen, "I'm just wondering, who is going to harm Gu Langhua's eyes, and why?"

Cheng Yi thought for a while, "Perhaps, this matter can help the young master." ”

Lu Ying raised her eyes and met Cheng Yi's four eyes, Cheng Yi smiled, "If this matter is done by the second wife, the old lady Gu will inevitably have a bad relationship with the second wife from now on, even if everyone who doesn't make trouble knows it, with this kind of ugly thing in front, the second wife can't raise her head in the Lu family." ”

"After all, the young master is difficult to support alone, it is better to take this opportunity to use the power of the Gu family to suppress the second wife, otherwise when the second wife's father and brother have made great contributions, they have obtained the Gu family's property, stabilized the status of the head of the house, and reborn a son-in-law, and ...... in the future How should the young master deal with himself. ”

"Our Daqi is different from the previous dynasty, not everyone can enter the imperial examination, the whole clan is waiting for this opportunity, young master, you have to seize it. ”

Lu Ying knew this, and he had long understood what he wanted.

Lu is a hundred-year-old family, after the fall of the previous dynasty, had to move to Zhenjiang to avoid disaster, since then lived an obscure life, great-grandfather called his grandfather to the bedside before he died, told his grandfather, life is short, don't be burdened by fame, do what you like, so as not to regret it. The Lu family, like the Gu family, prides itself on being a relict of the former dynasty, and after decades of keeping their reputation, what did they get?

The only thing in this world that can be praised is only four words: fame and fortune.

The rest is just a passing moment.

As long as he remembers these four words, he will never regret it.

Gu Langhua's disappointed expression suddenly appeared in front of her again, and Lu Ying only felt that her heart was suddenly hit hard by a heavy object again, and it took a while to come back to her senses.

This Gu Langhua is really strange, and his gestures make him feel inexplicably familiar and very unfamiliar.

Lu Ying instructed Cheng Yi: "Go and find out what Miss Gu is doing." ”

Cheng Yi is a little strange, what can an eight-year-old child do?

Lu Ying said: "I have to know everything she does. ”

Cheng Yi saw Lu Ying's expression and knew that he was serious.

Lu Ying sat upright on the chair and picked up the pen again, "Isn't the Gu family going to investigate?" I also helped her and asked her to go back and tell her grandmother and mother that my aunt and grandmother were not feeling well, so I stayed to serve Yaoshi and went back tomorrow." ”
