Lu Ying quickly retracted her thoughts. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Old Lady Lu is like a burning fireball "crackling" non-stop, "You don't have to speak for her, this family affair was originally decided by taking into account the love of the two ancestors, although Old Lady Gu is gone, I am still alive, and I can dissolve the marriage contract one day after I live." β
"Gu Langhua's child, in addition to being good-looking...... Since she was a child, she was not raised by her father, and she has never heard that Mrs. Gu asked her to teach her etiquette, and when she grows up in the future, she will be just a peasant woman. β
If a few days ago, Lu Ying might not have taken his grandfather's words seriously, but now he clearly knows that his grandfather was wrong, and Mrs. Gu raised Gu Langhua, her granddaughter, very well.
If Gu Langhua was here, he would definitely understand what he was going to say next, and he didn't need to explain it again.
Lu Ying waited until Mrs. Lu finished scolding, and her anger calmed down a little before she spoke, "Grandfather, in the eyes of outsiders, both the Gu family and the Wang family are our in-laws, and now that something happened between the two of them, our Lu family should be impartial, grandfather sent a gift to the Gu family, and also persuaded Mrs. Gu to try to reconcile the relationship between the Gu and Wang families, Mrs. Gu refused to agree, and returned the gift, and my grandfather also gave an explanation to the Wang family, and what happened next depends on how the Gu family and the Wang family deal with it." β
"No matter what happens to the Lu family, it has nothing to do with the Lu family. β
"Why did the Lu family wade into this troubled water. β
Lu Ying raised her head and looked earnest, "When things come to an end, it's not too late for my grandfather to help make a decision, and in this way, it also protects my mother's reputation, so as not to make people think that my mother and her mother's family are conspiring together to calculate the Gu family." β
Isn't it good to not only save the face of the Lu family, but also to be able to react anytime and anywhere? Why did you get involved before everything was clear.
Mrs. Lu looked at her grandson in surprise, she knew that Lu Ying had a stable temperament, but in her heart she felt that Lu Ying had always been a child, and when she heard Lu Ying say such a thing today, she suddenly felt that Lu Ying had really grown up.
Lu Ying proposed to stay in Zhenjiang and properly arrange the old people in the clan who couldn't travel far, she thought that it was all his childish thoughts, and she had already made up her mind in her heart, and when she set off, she would press Lu Ying to go together, and she must not let him stay and mess around.
Now it seems that Lu Ying is not impulsive, but has her own opinions.
Mrs. Lu thought about it quietly, the old lady has been a little carried away because of the Lu family's development over the years, and she has looked down on her sister's family for a long time, but the best fields in Zhenjiang are all Gu family, this is the most intolerable thing for the old lady, the old lady doesn't understand a vulgar, A family that never encourages its children to study and enter the office, how can they enjoy those glory and wealth, so whenever the Gu family gives some expensive gifts, the old lady will scoff at it, thinking that the Gu family is showing off to the Lu family, and he has the strength to hold everything of the Gu family in his hands, otherwise what will he do as an official?
But since the Wang family is bad, they have to bear the result, and they can't hold on any longer. The relationship between the Lu family and the Gu family is the same, you might as well wait until the matter in Zhenjiang is over, if the Gu family is okay after the war has passed, the marriage between the two families will naturally be said, if the Gu family suffers because of this, there is no need to withdraw from the marriage at all, just give up.
Mrs. Lu said: "Old lady, I think what Ying'er said makes sense, this matter has nothing to do with our Lu family, and my sister invited Lord Min to be the master, and Lord Min is Princess Ning's maternal uncle." β
Old Lady Lu was stunned for a moment, and immediately sneered, "King Ning...... It's just a ......."
Lu Ying's face immediately said, "Grandfather, be careful that the wall has ears." β
Empress Dowager Zhang gave birth to four sons, the emperor as the eldest son, but the Empress Dowager Zhang's least favorite son, when the emperor was alive, Empress Dowager Zhang tried to depose her son Hui Wang as the crown prince. After the emperor ascended the throne, Empress Dowager Zhang spoiled King Hui too much, so that she personally contributed to the "King Hui Rebellion Case", after the death of King Hui, Empress Dowager Zhang was even more dissatisfied with the emperor, trying to use King Qing to contain the emperor, King Qing saw the intention of the queen mother, and invited herself to go out of Beijing to stay away from the political situation, Empress Dowager Zhang had no choice but to support the honest little son King Ning.
Who knows that this King Ning is too honest, several times in front of the civil and military officials are not neatly dressed, the words are lost, so that the Empress Dowager Zhang lost face, now the whole Qi knows, King Ning is a stupid prince, Empress Dowager Zhang is still not convinced, just for King Ning to find a prominent family to marry, ask to marry the daughter of the Duke of Rongguo as a wife, this time the emperor did not stop, because the Duke of Rongguo Mansion has long been gone, not long after the Duke of Rongguo died, the eldest son took over the title of Duke of Rongguo, the new Duke of Rongguo is weak and can not lead troops to fight, simply nest in the capital to recuperate, everyone thought that the Duke of Rongguo Mansion was overγ Unexpectedly, Han Zhang, the second brother of Rong Guogong, entered the palace as a janissary after making meritorious service to Rong, and then rose all the way to become the youngest Wubian general in Daqi.
This time, the counterinsurgency mobilized the army of Han Zhang's Lingbei.
"Old lady," the steward said at this time, "the son-in-law of Lord Min's family has come to find the third master." β
Old lady Lu's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked at Lu Ying, "You have a good relationship with the son of the Min family?"
Lu Ying said: "I studied with Min Zichen. β
Old lady Lu pondered, "I remember that the Min family invited Mr. Zhou to teach. β
Mrs. Lu said with a smile: "The old lady forgot, Mr. Zhou also accepted our Ying'er exceptionally." β
Lu Ying couldn't help but smile in her heart, if it weren't for this incident, her grandfather might not remember it in her life, he was still studying under Mr. Zhou, because his grandfather didn't care if he could become an official. Grandfather is a person with a strong concept of concubine, and has always blamed his father for not having an eldest son, so that his aunt became pregnant and gave birth to a concubine, when the aunt was sent to the family nunery, the father pleaded with his grandfather, and the grandfather didn't blink his eyes, and resolutely let the aunt be dragged away.
These events are vivid.
Even at home, it's the same law of the jungle.
Old Lady Lu stroked her beard with satisfaction, "Go ahead, by the way, ask him about the situation on the Gu family's side, which side is Master Min going to stand on?"
Lu Ying answered and slowly walked out of the room.
Lu Ying walked into the courtyard, and Cheng Yi immediately followed, "There is no movement on the Wang family's side." β
The absence of movement just indicates that countermeasures are being planned.
Gu Langhua should be very anxious over there! It's like playing chess, and he has lost his words, and he doesn't know when others will come to take over.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Langhua asked people to tie a swing in the garden, she sat on the swing, closed her eyes and heard the wind in her ears "whirring" by, and suddenly felt very happy, this kind of play can not be fun, taking advantage of Xiao's mother to leave, Langhua raised her feet and quickly stood up, held the rope, and swung up hard, and suddenly Xiao's mother exclaimed in her ears, "Miss, this is not good, come down, come down." β
She is not afraid, she can't wait to grow wings and fly out directly.
Xiao's mother stopped the swing with a few hands, and Langhua saw a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl standing in the yard, wearing a lotus-colored gown, combing a double snail bun, with sparse eyebrows, a pretty face, and a bookish face, looking at her with a smile.
See Langhua get off the swing.
The girl said: "I was worried that this illness would burn you out, but now it seems that you are more vigorous than before, no wonder the old lady said that you are different, let me be careful of being scared by your wild monkey." β
Langhua carefully searched for memories of this girl in her mind, if she was in her twenties, she might not remember clearly, but now after the fusion of memories in the past two days, all the people and things at the age of eight have gradually become clear, so before the girl pouted and got angry, Langhua had already opened her hand and hugged her.
