Chapter 272, Eventful Winter
Yang looked at his niece who was coquettish in his mother-in-law's arms, and couldn't help but sigh secretly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Don't blame the old lady and Mrs. for liking. Think about Lu Rushuang at the beginning, and then look at the current Lu Ruxue, it is clear which is better and which is inferior.
Now in this family, I am afraid that only the Yang family can think of Lu Rushuang. But the niece is now treating the second master, even if it is her, she will not mention Lu Rushuang at this time, causing unnecessary misunderstandings.
Lu Chongwu didn't follow, so he had to explain it clearly to his cousin. In the end, it was the old lady who spoke, and Lu Ruxue mentioned her thoughts.
"A few months ago, I saw that you were mysterious, and the minions around you were even supported by you, and it turned out that it was for this. You child!" Mrs. Tai nodded her granddaughter's head affectionately, her eyes full of doting.
The old lady also nodded frequently. Lu Chengyao and his wife looked at their daughter, and it was naturally an honor to be able to please their parents.
The grandparents have a big birthday, and the Ping and Xu families, as granddaughters-in-law, have also worked hard. But she is still not as good as Lu Ruxue and understands her grandparents' thoughts. However, the two of them only had a small taste, but they were not jealous.
Mrs. Lu's birthday banquet was held very grandly because of the emperor's reward. Even after a few days, there are still people in the capital who talk about it.
The old lady discussed with Mrs. Tai, worried that during the birthday banquet of Mrs. Tai, the scene would not be controllable. If it makes the city stormy again, I am afraid that it will cause the emperor's dissatisfaction.
It is a matter of honor and disgrace of the government, and everything is naturally decided by the old lady. On the day of the birthday banquet, except for the people who sent the invitation banquet before, all guests will be thanked.
Gu Yue and Layue, since entering the winter, with the preliminary preparations, the Taifu Mansion has been busy for three months. At the end of the month, it is time for the New Year.
Lu Ruxue these days, every day with a smile, together with the Heping family and the Xu family, accompanied her grandmother and two aunts, and her mother to entertain guests in the "Kangning Garden".
In order not to lose the dignity of the house, the clothes and hairpins are changed more frequently than the middle clothes. Finally, in the days before Chinese New Year's Eve, the provinces only sent some gifts, and most of the people who visited the house only sat down and did not stay for dinner.
When she got time, Lu Ruxue took the opportunity to dispense medicine to her second uncle, so that she could take a short rest in the "Perilla Garden". Lu Chongyu also worked hard for three months, and at this time he stayed with his sister, drinking tea and eating snacks and chatting about some gossip.
"Hongxuan hasn't been to the door for a few days, and I just heard a report from the office, saying that he sent a name sticker to the house, and he came to send a New Year's gift early in the morning. ”
After so many things, Lu Chongyu's heart has long lost the hostility towards Mu Xuanyang at the beginning. So intentionally or unintentionally, I hope to get closer to my sister and Mu Xuanyang.
It's just that where does Lu Chongyu know, Mu Xuanyang will come to the night meeting Lu Ruxue every once in a while, although the two of them have been passing books recently, and there is less opportunity to meet. But the feelings are getting stronger and stronger.
Lu Ruxue ignored her brother and just lowered her head to dispense medicine.
"You've been busy these days, so it's easy to rest, what kind of medicine is this? Is anyone sick at home?"
For Lu Chengzong's treatment, Lu Ruxue has never faked her hands to others, let alone tell her brother. Seeing that he asked curiously, he was afraid that he would chase after him, so he casually found an excuse.
It happened that a servant came to spread the word, saying that the third master wanted the third young master to go to the outer courtyard to help greet the guests. Lu Ruxue urged Lu Chongyu to go out.
Before Lu Chongyu went out, he inadvertently swept the medicinal materials on the table again, and couldn't see why, so he sighed and went to the outer courtyard unwillingly.
As soon as Lu Chongyu left, Xu Zhuying came to find Lu Ruxue.
"Sister-in-law, what are you busy with?" Xu Zhuying had no knowledge of medicinal materials, and Lu Ruxue casually found an excuse to dissolve the curiosity in her heart.
Grasp the medicine and order Cai Yue to decoction the medicine. She dragged Xu Zhuying into her room.
"The second sister-in-law is coming over now, but is there something wrong?" Lu Ruxue ordered someone to bring tea and snacks.
"Grandmother's birthday, the cold and warm jade mat sent by my sister-in-law, warm in winter and cool in summer, grandmother said yes directly. I want to ask my sister-in-law, where is it custom-made?"
The wife of the Duke of Wei, Xu Zhuying's grandmother's birthday was in March, and Xu Zhuying also wanted to customize a pair of such jade mats as a birthday gift.
Lu Ruxue could guess a few points, and wrote the location of the shop and the name of the craftsman on a piece of paper. Although this cold and warm jade mat is not a good jade, it is also worth a lot of money when made of a jade mat.
However, Xu Zhuying has a grange shop for marriage, and this little money can still be taken. Therefore, Lu Ruxue did not inform the offer, and she didn't want people to misunderstand that she intended to show off.
sent Xu Zhuying away, and the Yun family had time to visit her daughter. Cai Xing pouted towards Cai Yue, and couldn't help but complain a few words while serving tea.
"The eldest lady is so easy to get a vacancy, this one or two, if you have something to do, you will come to the door. ”
"You, masters, too, you can complain. Cai Yue glared at Cai Xing, afraid that someone would hear this.
"I'm just complaining to you. Cai Xing's mouth is hard, but his voice is so small that he can't even hear it clearly. I also know that I shouldn't be doing it.
After sending the Yun family away, Caiyue's medicine was also decocted, Lu Ruxue cheered up and went to see the second lady Yang.
With this medicine, the prescription has been adjusted three times. If there is no effect, Lu Ruxue has no choice. forced out a smile, comforted the second aunt for a few words, left the medicine, and then returned to Mrs. Tai's "Kangning Garden". It wasn't until after dinner and the servant lady rested that he went back to the house.
Ming'er Mu Xuanyang wants to come to the house to give a gift, and he thinks that he will not come again tonight. Lu Ruxue only wore a middle coat and was lying on the bed covered with a brocade quilt, although she felt very tired, she couldn't sleep.
Cai Yue was lying on the Luohan bed outside Pingfeng, listening to the eldest lady tossing and turning, thinking that the eldest lady was uncomfortable, so she hurriedly put on her clothes and got up to see.
"I'm fine, read a few pages and go to sleep. You should have rested earlier!"
Cai Yue thought about it and asked uneasily, "Miss, but you have something on your mind?"
"What's on your mind?" Lu Ruxue didn't know if she had something on her mind like this. Ten days ago, the Boxing gift sent by the Yan Mansion in Beiping arrived. Mrs. Tai took the gift list, didn't say anything, and prepared a return gift according to the list.
But she could see a hint of displeasure flashing in her grandmother's eyes. It's just that grandmother doesn't say it, and she can't ask for a gift list to look at it carefully.
It's just that afterwards, I heard the housekeeper's mother in charge of the treasury say that the two mansions are about to conclude a marriage, and the festival gift sent by the Yanwang Mansion in Beiping is not precious.
This also indicates Princess Yan's dissatisfaction with Lu Ruxue, her daughter-in-law. Naturally, she felt uncomfortable, thinking that she would spend the rest of her life in that unknown place. Thinking about how to get along with my mother-in-law in the future, a wave of annoyance accumulated in my chest, and I no longer felt sleepy.
But these words, she is not good to say to Caiyue's minions. Cai Yue saw that the eldest lady didn't want to mention it, and she couldn't guess for a while, so she had to pick out the lamp and candle and take a book to the eldest lady.
Seeing that the time was about to end, Lu Ruxue couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep.
