Chapter 5: Back to the City

The Lujia Water Pavilion is narrow and dilapidated.

The red paint of the pillars has faded in some places, and the pond near the water is sparse and pulls a few lotus flowers with little appearance. There were no fish, just a puddle of not-so-clear water.

Wang Ping and Deng Ye looked straight at the flowers.

Where does this place where the young lady of a big family lives? The average squire's house is more than so dilapidated, right?

Steward Wang waited with a smile, and saw Wei's mother coming over with a young girl from a distance, and hurriedly said, "Two military masters, our eldest lady is here." ”

Under the corridor, the girl next to Wei's mother was wearing a particularly festive one, a pink top, a red long skirt mopping the floor, combing double rings, and a few thin petals on her ears.

"She's ......"

"Master Huijun, it's our eldest lady."

Wang Ping and Deng Ye have both practiced their eyesight with Duan Mian, and although they are separated by some distances, they can still see each other's facial features and skin clearly.

It's familiar, but it's a little unfamiliar.

"Doesn't seem to be the right size?" Deng Ye observed carefully and whispered.

"Well, this one seems to be a lot taller."

"I have freckles on my nose and my eyes are dull." Deng Ye was ruthless at all.

Wang Ping shook his head and sighed, and asked Steward Wang: "Steward Wang, have all the unmarried women in your village shown up?" ”

"Master Huijun, yes."

Deng Ye asked again: "Didn't you have a female guest who left her relatives?" ”

Steward Wang assured with certainty: "Absolutely not." ”

"That bothered."

The two took their leave in disappointment.

In the distance, Lu Lu walked lightly under the corridor with an expressionless face, and he didn't look up and kept silent.

It wasn't until I saw them say goodbye to the king's steward that I was relieved.

Mother Wei secretly stared at her, not to say much.

After the guests were sent out of the village, she dismissed Chuncao Xia Wen and interrogated with a cold face: "Miss, you are honest, is the person they are looking for you?" ”

"It's not." Lu Lumian is not red, his heart is not beating, and he denies it.

"Really?"

"Really, really. It's more real than real gold. ”

"You swear." This year, the heaviest vow.

Lu Lu raised his right hand without any psychological pressure, and said solemnly: "What I said is true, if there is deception, let me be drowned." ”

Anyway, in her previous life, she jumped into a well and died, and she died once.

Mother Wei hurriedly stepped forward to block her mouth, and said in panic: "My young lady, how can this kind of oath be made casually?" ”

"You're going to say it." Lu Lu muttered.

"Hey, I said Miss. You, you can't be so open-mouthed anymore. Mother Wei said worriedly: "This village residence can't live for a long time, you are the eldest lady of the Lu family, you must be well-behaved and courteous, and have a basis for advancing and retreating." That's how it's good for the in-laws. ”

"Mother Wei, do you think my stepmother will give me a good mother-in-law's house?" Lu Lu asked in a troubled discussion tone.

Wei's mother was shocked again.

This, this other girl, even if she is a Yahuan aunt, is shy and ashamed when it comes to the topic of finding her mother-in-law's house, why does the young lady take it for granted?

Lu Lu didn't feel rude, and propped his elbows on the table and said thoughtfully: "You won't be worthy of a country boy, right?" ”

"Miss." Mother Wei decisively intercepted her self-question, and taught with a straight face: "This is not what you should inquire about as a young lady." ”

"Mother Wei, if I don't make a decision earlier, if my stepmother gets some small tricks, it won't be ruined for the rest of my life."

Whether in ancient or modern times, marrying is equivalent to a woman's second reincarnation.

If you marry well, you will have no worries for the rest of your life.

If you don't marry well, the second half of your life will be miserable.

Countless examples have been proven, and Lu Lu doesn't need to say much, Wei's mother knows it.

"Miss, don't worry about it. These days, you can learn female red needlework in Zhuangzi. Just wait for the eldest master to take you back to the city, right? ”

"Will my dad take me back?" Lu Lu tilted his head and asked.

Wei's mother looked stern and nodded solemnly: "Yes, definitely." ”

Time flies, and soon it will be the beginning of autumn.

I don't know which of the tendons of Lord Lu Jing in Yicheng has a convulsion, and suddenly he sent two housekeepers to pick up Lu Lu, who had been lost in the village for many years.

The two housekeepers were dressed very decently and neatly, and their behavior was very progressive, even Wei's mother sighed to herself.

When I inquired, it turned out that she was just a second-class mother-in-law, and she was sent by his wife, and it was not the kind that was close to the grade.

I don't need to prepare anything, I heard that the family has already cleaned up and entered the courtyard, waiting for the eldest lady to go back.

So, on a beautiful autumn day.

Lu Lu finally left Luzhuang and headed for Yicheng. Except for Kaiwei's mother, spring grass and summer patterns are all brought. The other rough envoy and the little girl each took one, got into the car lightly, and soon drove away from a remote village.

Along the way, Lu Lu was very excited.

I haven't been far away, and after passing through, I just sneaked back to the township a few times, and I didn't have time to go to the big cities and towns.

The main reason is that the mountain roads are rugged and the carriage is needed to act, and she does not dare to alarm the steward.

Now it's good, pick up the curtains and spring grass and summer patterns along the road and point unscrupulously, one will say that the mountain is good, and the other will point to the slope The water is clear enough. I couldn't sleep with excitement when I was resting at the tip.

The two mothers-in-law naturally watched coldly, and when they saw that this Yuan was the only bone and blood of the Liu family, they looked like a country girl, and they laughed secretly.

They are here to pick them up. The second is also to watch people.

Pick up people because the old lady inadvertently said that the eldest lady is fourteen, and she can't leave the countryside alone anymore, it's time to find a family to discuss relatives. As for what kind of family affairs can be discussed, it depends not only on status, but also on behavior.

It turned out that she was raised in the countryside, and it was this wild girl's demeanor, so the wife didn't have to worry too much, let alone feel threatened.

Mother Wei had eaten salt for a few more years, and she also saw the two housekeepers from the city with disdain, so she persuaded Lu Lu a few times behind her back. and strictly scolded the spring grass and summer stripes for messing around, and it was not rude to bring the eldest lady.

The two girls were frightened, and they didn't dare to indulge the young lady to lift the curtain to look at the scene at will, and sat on both sides to prevent her from coming out again.

Lu Lu was quite unimpressed, but in this environment, he had to go with the flow, and he also restrained his flamboyant temperament at the moment.

On this day, a group of horse-drawn carriages turned the road and headed for a wide straight road.

Wei's mother recognized that this road led straight to Yicheng to the end, and she couldn't sit still.

"Whoa!" The wheels of the carriage in front of him were crooked and broken.

The one behind couldn't stop and almost collided, but Rao was like this, and the horse pulling the cart also flashed his waist and couldn't jump.

I had no choice but to pull over, repair the wheels first, and then show the horse injuries.

Lu Lu jumped out of the carriage, turned his head, twisted his waist and stretched his limbs, and asked, "How far is it from Yicheng?" ”

The housekeeper replied: "There are still fifteen miles." ”

"Then, when will it be repaired?"

The coachman replied: "Miss, two quarters of an hour at most." ”

"Okay, let's hold on. Look at the sky, I'm afraid it's going to rain. Lu Lu looked up at the sky.

The autumn wind is colder, the sun is not so scorching, and there are a few dark clouds floating in the sky.

'Gotta got' the sound of horses' hooves is getting closer and closer.

The crowd lifted up their eyes at the voice.

There was smoke and dust billowing from behind, as if thousands of troops were coming.

Mother Wei hurriedly escorted Lu Mu behind her, and told Chuncao and Xia Wen: "Quickly dodge, I'm afraid that the military master is passing by." ”

"Cut, I don't know, I thought the bandits were coming." Lu Lu rolled his eyes.

Not only that, but other pedestrians also dodged and gave way.

The puff of smoke and dust was soon approaching.

Looking closely, it was indeed dozens of sturdy war horses, all of them whipped and drove quickly, and the horses' hooves were in the air, bringing up a whirlwind that swept past them, quite the majesty of a thousand horsemen.

"Ahem!" Lu Lu, who was choked by the thick dust, almost rushed to the middle of the road regardless of his image, jumped to his feet and scolded: Hurry to reincarnate?
