Chapter 4: The Comer Is Not Good
At noon, the sun is blazing, and the cicadas are singing.
Lu Lu got up and helped her with spring grass and Xia Wen, it seemed that she couldn't get out today. The two girls stared very closely.
Mother Wei came in with a pattern in her hand and said: "Miss, this is a new embroidery pattern in Yicheng, I see that you haven't touched a needle for several days, and you have rested enough today, it's time to review this female red." ”
"Oh, put it there." Lu Lu was listless.
Mother Wei pouted and asked another girl to sprinkle and sweep: "Go and bring the young lady's embroidered canopy." ”
"Yes, Mom."
Lu Lu couldn't help glaring at her, and he was pressing forward step by step.
Wei's mother is still planning to guard her, and she will never find an excuse to be lazy again, the girl in the fourteenth year, and the township have such a big mother. This eldest lady is still crazy about playing.
At this time, the servant woman of the village came to report: "Miss, the chief is here." ”
"What is he here for?"
"I don't know, there are two military masters with me."
Military master? Lu Lu's brows jumped.
She suppressed her surprise and said to Wei's mother, "I'm tired of my mother to greet the guests." ”
Lu Zili originally had a Zhuang head, and they were all in charge of the greeting from the outer court, but it was the first time that the chief of the security department pointed out that he wanted to see the eldest lady. However, with a military master of unknown origin, it is not good for the young lady to come forward in this matter.
Wei's mother agreed, dusted off her clothes and followed the servant to the front yard.
She walked on the front foot, and Lu Lu sneaked over with the spring grass and summer pattern on the back foot.
The front yard is partial to the hall, which will be sunburning, there is a hundred-year-old locust tree in front of the courtyard to shade most of the sun, and the side hall has just been sprinkled and swept, but it is not too hot.
Although Lu Lu is the most delicate lady in the Zhuangzi, it is the two Wang stewards appointed by Master Lu who preside over the affairs of the Zhuangzi. The field affairs and trivial matters in the village are all taken care of by them, and they report to the lord of Yicheng every month.
Steward Wang received the chief and the two young sergeants very respectfully, and after greeting them, he went straight to the point.
"Cheng Zhu? No. Steward Wang directly denied: "The population of the village is simple, and there are only about 30 servants, and there is no one with this name." ”
Wang Ping and Deng Ye glanced at each other and asked, "Dare to ask the king steward, a few days ago, could there be a woman in the village to go out to play?" ”
The corner of the king's steward was furious.
Play? Isn't she the eldest lady in the family?
However, it was a matter of reputation, and the name was not right, so he even refused: "No." ”
"Think again."
Steward Wang thought for a while and said, "Still not." ”
As she was talking, Mother Wei came over and saluted the chief of the security guard.
The chief of security asked, "Can Miss Lu be in the house?" ”
"In, in embroidery. I wonder what the chief of security has to ask? ”
The chief of the security department pointed to Wang Ping and Deng Ye and said: "The two little military masters said that a few days ago, there was a strange woman whose courage was commendable to rescue the injured Duan Counselor, and now the Counselor General is injured and stable, and he is specially sent to thank him heavily." ”
Hearing the heavy thanks, Lu Lu, who was squatting on the back wall and eavesdropping, was not calm.
Is it silver or silk? It's all money, right?
Do you want to come forward and admit it? However, at that time, I paid attention to the name of the eye, right?
No, what about the pseudonym, her face is real.
I'm hesitating.
Then Deng Ye smiled and said: "By the way, I also ask that Miss Cheng if you can see our general's saber?" ”
"Sabre?" After Mother Wei was stunned, she shook her head: "The two little military masters are just afraid that they will be disappointed." Not only do we have no Cheng Zhu girl here, but we also don't have wild girls who like to dance with knives and guns. ”
"Can you ask the fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls in the village to identify themselves?" Deng Ye asked politely.
Steward Wang's face froze, isn't this okay?
Think you're admitting a suspect?
Mother Wei even lowered her face and said, "What kind of place is our Luzhuang, two military masters?" Don't say that the young lady can't see it, even the girls who serve the young lady are also at a young age, how can they be reckless and lose seeing a foreign man? ”
That's it. Lu Lu nodded violently.
As soon as she heard that the other party was still going to verify the saber, she pressed her mind to come out and receive the reward.
If the reward is not received, and she is deducted with a hat of 'hand-leading sheep', won't she lose a lot because of a small one?
Wang Ping and Deng Ye exchanged glances again, and it was inconvenient for the chief to offend anyone, so he had to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
So, Wang Ping had to take out his military card, and the young man said: "The military order is like a mountain, and the violator will be beheaded." ”
Damn, shameless! It's such a thing and the military order is still moved. It's really a chicken feather as an arrow.
Lu Lu took a sip angrily.
Chuncao secretly tugged at the corners of her clothes, so the master and servant quietly slipped back to the backyard.
After a while, a servant woman came to invite Chuncao and Xia Wen to come to the court, oh, no, it was a trial.
Lu Lu hid the saber, and then began to put on makeup in front of the mirror.
She understood that these two young military masters would not give up until they reached their goals, but they were afraid that this saber was the beloved thing of that Duan Staff General, and it would be difficult to go back to deal with it if they were not searched out. Then, she will probably be taken out for recognition as well.
With their tough and domineering style, and she is an unpleasant merchant's daughter, it is not so strange that she is taken out for people to see.
Look at the glasses again: the complexion is yellow and black, there are a few obvious freckles on the tip of the nose, the cheekbones are high, and the mouth is white and miserable, which is very consistent with the appearance of cowardice at the beginning of a serious illness.
Changed into the brightest and most colorful summer clothes, and put a few more layers of shoes, in vain to raise the figure, it looks like the image of Lu Lu in the wild last time.
Mother Wei came in angrily, first glanced at her, and was stunned: "My eldest lady, you, why do you look like this?" ”
"Mother Wei, what's going on?"
"Oh, it's deceitful. The two military masters said that they were looking for someone, and they looked at our village girl and said no. He still refused to leave, saying that he wanted to invite Miss out to see him. ”
"It's just unreasonable, does my mother have someone to report to the official? My good Miss Lu family, how can she be seen by a stinky man outside. Lu Lu looked very angry.
Mother Wei's old face was stunned, and Ai Ai said: "Miss, this, the chief security officer is here, and the official is afraid that it is useless." ”
"And what did mom say?"
"Huh? That, since ancient times, this show has only met soldiers, and it is unreasonable. Wei's mother was embarrassed: "Steward Wang and the chief of security also said that the young lady was defenseless when she saw it." Anyway, with them by their side, no one dares to gossip. ”
Lu Lu rolled his eyes and knew that this would be the case.
"Alas! I can't twist my thighs with my arms. Who made me a motherless child? With the name of the eldest lady empty, anyone dares to bully her. Lu Lu pressed the corners of his eyes and sighed helplessly.
Wei's mother was sad, and she also raised her sleeves to wipe her tears and said, "The eldest lady has suffered." The old slave is ashamed of the first wife. ”
Lu Lu pretended to throw himself into her arms, shrugged his shoulders and cried, "Mother Wei, stop talking." ”
The master and servant were sad, and the woman in the king's steward came to urge: "Miss, the military master outside is still waiting." ”
Mother Wei said sharply: "What are you urging, let him wait." ”
"Forget it, I'd better see you." Lu Lu turned back to Steward Wang and said, "Let the two military masters go to the water pavilion and wait." ”
Water Pavilion? There is a pond in the Zhuangzi, but it is very small and not very interesting.
Mother Wei said to the stunned Wang Guan woman: "Do you want the eldest lady to let the men outside look like those girls?" ”
"Slaves don't dare." The woman in charge of the king was startled, and went in a hurry.
Lu Lu held Wei's mother's hand and said, "Thank you, Wei's mother." ”
She didn't want to let those two bullshit military masters stare at close range to take a closer look, what if they were goofs? Even if it's polite to just glance at the water pavilion, you have to maintain the identity of the young lady, right?
