Chapter 571: Lunch Break

Contrary to the quietness of Zhiyuanju, there are already two maids in the courtyard who have been punished. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Lu's presided over the feed, has always been fair and decent, and there are few times when you get angry for no reason.

Only her dowry maid Xuezhu knew that the princess was sulking, and this sulking was not supported by Wu Sheng.

Last night, in order for Wu Zhengxiang to get married, Wu Sheng was finally able to come back for one more day, but the two had a quarrel before going to bed.

"Husband, when I got married, I only raised the dowry at sixty-four, and you see that my younger brother and sister accompanied me to one hundred and twenty-eight, and the Queen Mother gave her a long face. You say, where do I put my face in the mansion?" Lu was full of grievances.

Wu Sheng glanced at her strangely: "It's just a dowry, what does it have to do with face?" He couldn't understand these twists and turns in the back house.

Lu said: "I am the head of the house, everything is respected, the Xu family does this, just don't take me in their eyes, don't put you in their eyes, what do they want to do?"

Wu Sheng comforted her: "My brother and sister are in a coma now, and the Xu family will accompany them with more dowry, but they just feel sorry for their daughter, don't think nonsense." ”

"Why am I thinking nonsense?" Lu Shi put the comb on the dressing table heavily: "Now in the capital, who doesn't know that the Xu family is rich? But if you have money, you also have to know how to spend it, so you have crossed me like this, I'm afraid that others are laughing at us and being in-laws with a businessman." ”

Hearing her say this, Wu Sheng also became angry: "What is a businessman? Xu Wan is really a person that the Queen Mother values." With the Queen Mother here, why is it in the way of you that she has more dowry? What does it have to do with us? ”

Lu Shi was speechless, and he only felt that the two really couldn't get along. He loves that brother with all his heart, and now he even has to protect his younger brother and sister together. The two were silent all night, and Wu Sheng and the others returned to Beiya after recognizing their relatives, leaving only Lu's heart unresolved.

Xue Zhu knew what was on her mind, and waited carefully all morning, and finally she didn't want to do that, but she heard Su Liangzhi and Princess Chunhe come to the mansion to see Xu Wanzhen.

was so angry that Lu Shi dropped a pastel teacup, and the little girl who came in to clean up the pieces moved a little slower, and was punished by her to kneel under the corridor. Xuezhu made her another cup of tea, and Lu said that the water temperature was too hot, and punished her for a month.

Even Xuezhu was punished, and everyone became more and more cautious. The Lu family was full of grievances, but he couldn't find anyone to tell, so he thought about it and said: "The next post will go to the Anping Marquis Mansion, and I will invite the third lady of their family to come to the mansion to enjoy the flowers." ”

The third lady of the Marquis of Anping is Tu Manfen. When she and Lu were in the boudoir, they had a handkerchief and cherished each other. It's just that the Lu family married two years before her, and she married to the Guogong Mansion, so the friendship between them was inconvenient and gradually faded.

Later, Tu Manfen married Cheng Jinghao, and they both married people, so they had to be more free in communication. The two met again at the banquet and renewed their friendship. It's just that Tu Manfen has been out of the Hou Mansion for a short time, and the two haven't been able to see each other a few times.

The Lu family, who was unhappy because of Xu Wanzhen, thought of Tu Manfen again, and thought that the two were cousins, so he wanted to ask her about Xu Wan's true reality. As a concubine, she didn't want to suffer a loss, so she had to strike first.

……

If Lu's mood is not good, it will be cloudy in the Zhengchun Courtyard. Then the atmosphere in the main courtyard can be described as stormy.

Mother He stood behind Chen in horror, watching her cut the pair of brocade sparrow beads embroidered hibiscus shoes on the table into pieces with scissors. A good pair of shoes turned into a pile of waste, and the hibiscus flower was shattered under her knife.

What's even more terrifying is Chen's expression at this time. Her eyes were straight, and she didn't know what to say.

The people in the courtyard were far away from the main house. Chen beat and scolded at every turn, knowing that she was in a bad mood at the moment, and no one wanted to get up and touch her head.

After cutting the hibiscus shoes, Chen said slowly: "Such a daughter-in-law, she can't be beaten or scolded, and she can't even come to ask for a little maid under her hand, what's the use of her?"

Mother He didn't want to speak, so she had to persuade: "Madame doesn't have to be angry with her, she has a good color, and the second son is just greedy for freshness." When this month is over, it's not too late to slowly clean her up. ”

This is not an effective suggestion, but Chen is like grasping a life-saving straw, and his eyes are shining: "You are right, this month has passed first." I have a lot of adults, so I'll let her go this month. ”

……

After recognizing their relatives, Wu Jiao and Wu Chenghe returned to Shangshu Mansion.

Wu Chenghe didn't have any serious errands, he had already been a lifter, but Wu Shangshu read his article and said that he still lacked some heat, and he didn't end up in this year's Spring Festival, so he was afraid that he would fall into the second class and get a fellow jinshi.

Therefore, in addition to feasting and writing poems with three or five friends, he spent most of his time studying hard in the house.

Today, I accompanied Wu Jiao back to the Zhongguo Mansion, and when I came back, it was almost time to eat, so I didn't go to the study, and the two of them took a lunch break together.

Wu Chenghe changed his clothes and lay on the bed, remembering the scene of the confession in the morning, Chen's face was really embarrassing. He thought to himself, why didn't he see that Chen was such a person?

In front of himself and Wu Jiao, although Chen didn't talk much, his love for his daughter could be seen at a glance.

He always thought that the rumors about the Chen family were wrong. It wasn't until today that he discovered that Chen's other face was as rumored.

"What do you want?" asked Wu Jiao as she came out of the clean room and lay down on his side.

Wu Chenghe glanced at her and said, "If I say it, I'm afraid you won't be happy." ”

As soon as Wu Jiao heard this, she knew that he was thinking that what Chen had done wrong in the morning. In fact, deep down, she also felt that Chen had gone too far. But as a daughter, can she say her mother's?

Turning over, Wu Jiao's mood was a little low: "You don't know how much your mother has suffered, and she doesn't want to be like this." ”

Wu Chenghe patted her shoulder to comfort her, but his heart was unimpressed. It's not that he hasn't heard about what happened back then, it's just that her reaction is a little excessive. As long as there is a little power in this capital, which one is not three wives and four concubines, as for it?

What's more, he admires Xu Wanzhen, who has just married into a martial arts family, and has nothing to do with the relationship between men and women, but just a pure appreciation of respect for her personality. admires her as the daughter of a businessman, who can have such a mind.

The two have been married for nearly five years, how can Wu Jiao not know about his emotional changes?

But in this matter, it was indeed his mother who did something wrong, and deliberately found fault, so he was despised by Wu Chenghe. Wu Jiao didn't want to talk about it anymore, so as not to bring shame on herself.

……

During this lunch break, Xu Wanzhen slept for an hour and a half before getting up, and when she opened her eyes, she only felt that she had slept full, and the whole person was refreshed. Wu Zhengxiang had already gone out, and Sang Zi heard her movement and came in to serve her to freshen up.

"The second prince told us not to wake you up, and he went to the outer courtyard to read. ”
