Chapter 112: The marriage is decided
Lu Zhi hurriedly stepped forward, helped him up, and smiled at him: "Just as the eldest brother said when he came to look for me today, if the eldest brother is useful to the fourth sister, the fourth sister cannot be defined. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
This time, Lu Heng did not thank him again, but nodded solemnly and said no more.
Lu Zhe sighed on the side: "You say, when will I be a daughter-in-law?"
Lu Heng and Lu Zhi looked at him together, and Lu Zhe touched his nose: "I just said it casually." ā
Today's conversation passed like this, and during the evening meal, Young Master Lu didn't say anything to keep Lu Zhi away from Duan Chen's words, but asked Mrs. Wu about the expenses in the house in front of everyone.
Mrs. Wu didn't answer, only said that the expenses in the house were still enough, so that Young Master Lu didn't have to worry.
Young Master Lu originally wanted to use this excuse to ask Lu Zhi to subsidize the expenses of the mansion with the money and silver brought back from Jiangnan, but when Mrs. Wu said this, he couldn't speak again, so he only snorted lightly and didn't mention it again.
Lu Zhi lowered her head to eat, just as if she had never heard of it.
After finishing the meal, Lu Heng took the initiative to go out with Lu Zhi, Lu Zhe took a step behind, walked with Lu Lan, looking at the figure of Lu Heng and Lu Zhe walking together in front of him, Lu Lan twisted the handkerchief in his hand: "Second brother, when will the eldest brother and fourth sister be like this?"
Hearing this, Lu Zhe stopped and looked at her, his eyes swept over the tightened silk handkerchief in her hand, and frowned: "The fourth sister and we are one, how can we say that it is good or not?"
Lu Lan seemed quite surprised when she heard this, but when she saw Lu Zhe's frowning appearance, she immediately lowered her head again: "I...... I didn't mean that, I just said......"
"It's best if you don't mean that. Lu Zhe interrupted her lightly and said, "Over the years, even Aunt Chen and our mother have seen the situation in the house clearly, and you should have understood it a long time ago." ā
"That's because we thought that the fourth sister was going to accompany His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the future. Lu Lan said in a low voice: "Can ...... But isn't she now privately pleaded with the prince of Zhenjiang for life? Why do you still want to bother with her?"
"Tie up?" Lu Zhe showed a little anger on his face: "Lu Lan, I will make it clear to you today, you are my sister, and the fourth sister is also my sister, it is a blood relationship, and it cannot be separated! If you say anything in my ear again, and make a private decision for life, if this damages the reputation of the fourth sister, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Lu Lan has always been a submissive appearance, but that is only in front of others, Lu Zhe is her brother with the same father and mother, and the two have grown up together since childhood, in front of him, Lu Lan is a little less cowardly.
Hearing this, she frowned, and said angrily to Lu Zhe: "What do you mean that I am damaging her reputation, and are she afraid that others will say what she does? Even Sister Qiu knows that she has a personal affair with the prince! What are you doing to protect her like this? I am your own sister!"
"What Sister Qiu?" Lu Zhe listened to her call Qiu Shiyi, and suddenly became angry: "Your own sister is not easy to get along with, but you have a close relationship with that Qiu Shiyi, are you stupid?"
"I'm not stupid, I know who can really help me!"
After Lu Lan yelled at Lu Zhe, she lifted her skirt and trotted away. When he crossed Lu Zhi, he snorted at her.
Lu Zhi was a little inexplicable, and couldn't help but look back, and Lu Zhe in the distance had an angry look on his face: "Don't pay attention to her, our father's little skills have all been passed on to her!"
Hearing this, Lu Heng just shouted: "Lu Zhe!"
Lu Zhe knew that he was speechless, looked around, and said loudly: "The Lu family has a woman like this, so I should be gratified." ā
When Lu Zhi heard this, he couldn't help but almost laugh out loud, Lu Heng also shook his head helplessly, turned to Lu Zhi and said, "Don't pay attention to him, he will always have convulsions from time to time, and it will be fine after a while." ā
Lu Zhi smiled and retracted his gaze: "Let's talk about the eldest brother." ā
Lu Heng nodded: "At noon, the fourth sister's words are like an empowerment, after returning from the fourth sister, I prepared a gift and went to the Fu Mansion, just when Fu Commander Mu Xiu was at home, I went to see Fu Commander and his wife first." ā
Lu Zhi understood: "Big brother, have you told me what you want in your heart?"
"Hmm. Lu Heng nodded: "I went with the heart of breaking the cauldron and told them the second elder in detail what I thought, I thought that even if they didn't laugh at me, they would definitely say something that didn't let me communicate with Fu Yao." ā
"Big brother, this is the difference. Lu Zhi sighed and said, "If Commander Fu was that kind of person, he would not have taken the initiative to make friends with his father in the first place, let alone cut off contact with him after knowing his father's temperament." ā
Lu Heng took a deep breath: "It's true that the eldest brother is different, because of his father, he always feels that the hearts of people in the world are ......."
"Forget it, don't mention it. Lu Heng was stunned, and turned his eyes to Lu Zhi and raised the corners of his lips slightly: "Commander Fu and his wife are both enlightened people, and they also told me the truth. ā
Lu Zhi was a little curious: "What is the truth?"
Lu Heng showed a hint of shame on his face: "Commander Fu and his wife actually have no opinion on me, and they don't care about the concubines and sisters-in-law, but they are afraid that I have no responsibility and can't give Yao'er happiness, after all, this is the situation in our Lu Mansion, and my mother is also ......."
The so-called son does not say anything about his mother, Lu Heng naturally can't and won't say that Aunt Chen is not good.
Lu Zhi nodded: "That's true, this is the situation in our family, if the eldest brother lacks responsibility, if Sister Fu really marries into the Lu family, my mother is the best example." ā
Lu Heng didn't answer, and was silent for a moment before he said: "I told them of the idea of wanting to gain fame and leave the capital, and they were very pleased, and agreed to marry Fu Yao to me after I got fame." ā
The corners of Lu Zhi's lips raised slightly: "Actually, Commander Fu has never prevented you from communicating with Sister Fu, let alone forcibly marrying Sister Fu to others, and letting the two of you make trouble is known to everyone, which is enough to show his intentions." ā
Lu Heng nodded: "In the past, I was the only one who couldn't see clearly, if it weren't for the fourth sister, maybe I would have pushed Yao'er away with my own hands." ā
While talking, the two of them had come to the door of Lu Zhi's courtyard, and Lu Zhi smiled at Lu Heng: "Now that the eldest brother can put his heart down, the good student is preparing to take the exam for fame, and there are only a few months left to calculate it carefully." ā
Lu Heng nodded yes, and the two parted at the gate of the courtyard.
Back in the courtyard, Lu Zhi summoned Chun'er and Xia'er and asked them if there was anything unusual in the mansion recently.
Since Chun'er and Xia Er came to the Lu Mansion, they have followed Lu Zhi's instructions to chat with the people in the mansion more when they have nothing to do, so that they can grasp the trends in the mansion.
Hearing this, Chun'er thought for a while and said: "Everything is as usual in the house, but I heard from the rough envoy mother-in-law in the lady's room, saying that the mother-in-law and maids in the lady's room have not yet issued the moonsilver last month." ā
