Chapter 10 Family and State Affairs
Pang Zi, who originally had an indifferent expression, instantly smiled like a flower, and said in a truly doting tone: "You have a lot of ears." ”
There were already two identical young men wearing jade crowns, wearing seven-point pink sky-blue silk robes, and entered the door briskly, smiling at Pang Zi.
Pang Zi leaned over and pulled one in one hand, and said with a smile: "After school, why didn't you change your clothes, so you came over?" ”
The two teenagers leaned on Pang Zi and responded with a smile: "It's troublesome to take off and put on, and I'll have to go to the second uncle's house to see the big brother in a while." ”
They talked to Pang Zi in their mouths, but their eyes were aimed at the quiet Lu Lu.
"Is this the big sister who is recuperating in the countryside?" The one on the right jumped even more out of the way, pointing to the landing deer and grinning.
Pang Zi smiled and nodded: "Exactly." He said to Lu Lu again: "These are your two younger brothers, who have been stubborn since childhood, the most naughty, and only the master can control them." If they bother you, just talk to me or my lord. ”
"Hello big sister."
These two are the pride of Ponzi's life.
I think back then, she was still a little cautious when she first married in to continue the string. In front of her, there is a concubine left by the Yuan match, and there is the Yi family who was born and raised early, she is a seven-grade official concubine, if it were not for her father's greed for money, it would be impossible to marry a businessman to fill the house.
Fortunately, she got a man in one fell swoop, and she is still a twin. Since then, his position in the Lu Mansion has been consolidated, and he began to clean up the concubines in the inner house who did not like the eyes.
Relying on his two sons, Pang Zi was very high-spirited for a while, so much so that he didn't think of looking for Lu Lu's stubble. When she remembered that her concubine was sent to the countryside in the name of recuperation, she wanted to simply clean it up so that she could make room for the eldest daughter she gave birth to, but she didn't expect it. She didn't give birth to an eldest daughter, but the newly started Zhu gave birth to a concubine.
Ponzi has a sense of crisis.
It's true that her son is a sister-in-law, but there is a concubine in front of her, what if Lu Jing likes it even more?
Pang Zi didn't have the time to manage Lu Lu, so he fought wits and courage with the Zhu family and wooed the Yi family as a partner, and finally suppressed the momentum of the younger and more beautiful Zhu family.
Lu Ying and Lu Xu are thirteen years old this year, and they and their brother Lu Qing followed the husband invited by the family to read and practice calligraphy in the study in the front yard. The homework is okay, but it is not very brilliant but it also wins the qualification of a showman.
Lu Jing has a huge fortune in his hands, and his only regret is that he did not become an official.
He was hopeless in his life, so he pinned his hopes on his sons.
Lu Lu still remembers these curves.
She got up and smiled and said half-politely: "Hello two younger brothers." ”
When she came, she brought gifts to give to her younger siblings, but she just handed them over to Wei's mother to distribute them to each room.
Lu Ying smiled politely: "Look at my sister's complexion, I want to come to the countryside to recuperate." I wonder if my sister has encountered rain all the way? ”
"Yes, thank you, madam, the air in that village is fresh, the products are also abundant, there is no worry or worry, I have lived for so many years, I have not recovered from this disease." Lu Lu smiled at his words and said: "There was rain on the road, but fortunately it was close to Qingyunguan, TOEFL, and the road was safe." ”
"Qingyun Temple?" Lu Xu said with a strange face: "Big sister stopped at Qingyun Temple? ”
Lu Lu was puzzled, but nodded softly and replied: "Yes, the Taoist chief borrowed a side hall to shelter from the rain for a short time." ”
She emphasized the side nave. Naturally, it means that as a young lady of the Lu family, even if she was in a hurry to avoid the rain, she did not mix with other messy people, but was in a separate room, so that these women could not find fault with it.
Zhu smiled and said: "This is a coincidence, our Lu Mansion is the biggest customer of Qingyunguan. The girl is afraid that she doesn't know, if she reports the name of the Lu Mansion, let alone the side hall, the main hall can be entered. ”
Ponzi frowned slightly, and coughed dryly.
Lu Lu also frowned: There is still such a thing? How could she not know in her previous life?
"This is a rush and shelter from the rain, I want to come to the eldest girl is also tired, madam, why don't I take the girl to the bamboo garden to rest, and then go to the study to invite Master An later?" Yi Shi saw that Lu Lu's eyebrows were frowning, and he was very considerate of her.
Ponzi nodded.
She didn't have much patience to deal with the daughter of the dead ghost wife in front of her, looking thin and slender, her eyebrows and eyes were very similar to that yuan, and she looked at the nest fire, and somehow let her run to the age of fourteen, which was really a mistake.
Waving his hand, he said, "Go ahead." Although the bamboo garden has just been cleaned up, it is also quiet and pleasant. Go down and rest first. ”
"Thank you mother for your kindness." Lu Lu was blessed with a blessed body, and was led out of the main room by the Yi family.
Lu Ying and Lu Xu glanced at each other, laughing at Pang Zi.
Seeing this, the other concubines were afraid of disturbing their mother and son to enjoy the joy of family, so they all retired with interest.
Lu Ying saw that everyone had retreated, so he simply waved his hand to let the Pang henchman also withdraw.
"Ying'er, do you have something to say?" Pang picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"Mother. I heard that Duan Mian, the prince of the Hou Shizi of Beining, was urgently recalled to Beijing by the emperor's gold medal, and if the calculation is correct, he will arrive in Yicheng today. ”
Pang Zi was stunned for a moment, blinked, and said, "So what? ”
She is a woman, a businesswoman, and she doesn't know much about government politics.
However, her two sons are already thirteen years old, and because their family is in Yicheng and they are famous for being a huge wealth in Jiangbei, they will naturally attract the attention of people in the court, and they have the heart to make friends, so their sense of smell is better than that of ordinary people.
"Mother, do you know that a few days ago, my father set up a banquet in the Begonia Pavilion, but where is it sacred?" Lu Xu lowered his voice.
Pang Zi's eyes rolled, and he recalled one: "I heard that your father said that he was a merchant in the capital, called Lin Gongzi." ”
Lu Ying shook his head, looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "Father didn't tell his mother about this, the child first talked to his mother, and he was a big man in Beijing." Then he raised his three fingers and said mysteriously: "The people of the three princes." ”
"Huh?" Pang Zi never expected that the third prince, who was as noble as a celestial, would send someone to contact her husband, and he was surprised and delighted.
Lu Xu hurriedly waved his hand: "Mother can keep it a secret." My father has been hiding this matter, and I think it's a big deal. ”
"And how do you know?"
Lu Ying pointed to the north and said, "The eldest brother of the second uncle's family accidentally met in front of him, saying that he had met on the day of the imperial festival in the Buddha Temple. Mother also knew that the eldest brother would never forget it, and he said that he had seen this person follow the third prince, and he was right to think about it. ”
Pang Zi nodded, stood up with some excitement, and pinched the handkerchief.
In the Great Qi Kingdom, the status of merchants is low. Even if he is worth tens of millions, he still can't get into the eyes of the officials.
If it weren't for the low official position of the Pang family and the lack of money, even though she was a concubine, she would definitely not marry Lu Jing to fill the house. Rao is like this, the Pang family is still criticized by the elders of the clan.
Of course, if it weren't for her father's official status, Lu Jing would not have been able to marry her to fill the house.
If, if, climb up to the three princes, it will be simply the Lu family's ancestral tomb emitting green smoke.
Not only will the Lu family be more prosperous in the shopping mall in the future, but Lu Ying and Lu Xu will also be able to better plan for a future.
"Wait, Ying'er, what does this have to do with the prince of Beining?" Ponzi questioned.
Lu Ying whispered: "Mother doesn't know that this Beining Hou is from the second prince's side. ”
"Shhh Ponzi takes a breath of cold air.
