Chapter 102: No Regrets
Mother Huang took the carefully stewed blood swallow to the main room, and when she saw that Lu was in a daze by candlelight, her heart darkened slightly, and she said with a smile, "Madam, this is specially prepared for you, and it has been stewed for several hours." Come and try it. β
Lu Shi breathed a sigh of relief, "Ah Yan, what do you say about the five girls?" Lu's heart went up and down, and there was a feeling similar to unhappiness spreading. I don't know if I'm blaming myself or whom.
"If you want me to say, Miss Fifth is not easy. You know what he does, too! The tricks are to kill her! Let's not talk about the bad things of the Ma family, it was the prince of King Ning last time, which made people can't help but shiver! Madam, if you hadn't taken care of one or two, Fifth Miss would have been extremely pitiful in the house! The status of the biological mother is not high, and the younger brother is still young! Seeing that the fourth lady said such a good marriage, but she herself ......", Huang's mother had long felt that something was wrong with the Lu family tonight, but she didn't ask. Now that I hear Lu mention Ke Xiyuan, why do you have to say something good for Ke Xiyuan.
On weekdays, Ke Xiyuan has not forgotten about Huang's mother, if there is anything delicious, she will always let Qiqiao come out and give Mama Su and Huang's mother one copy each. It's not that she's greedy for food, but that she remembers herself in her heart, and she also feels sorry for her walking on thin ice.
As soon as Lu Shi heard Huang's mother's words, he also stopped drinking bird's nest and was stunned. Yes, that girl, she is indeed tired from life. Just rely on her well-behaved to help her, so what?
"When you go to greet your mother tomorrow morning, remember to get some blood swallows! Mother's one, I'm afraid it's almost used up! Lu said casually.
Mother Huang sighed, "The slave knows!" It's been prepared for a long time! For the old lady's sake, the slave and maid are put away separately every time, just waiting for your orders! I want the slave to say. When it comes to filial daughters-in-law in this house, you are the first to bear the brunt, wife! β
"It's just that my mother values me, so I reciprocate! Well, it's night, go down and rest! Ask Bai Zhi to come in and comb my hair! Lu continued to use bird's nest and a bowl of bird's nest before going to bed. It's become a habit for her.
"One more thing. Wife! Huang's mother hesitated for a moment, but still wanted to say.
"What's wrong?". Lu Shi subconsciously frowned, put down the bowl, and wiped his mouth.
"There seems to be an accident in the west wing, as if there is a problem with the avoidance soup!" Huang's mother said in a low voice, "Someone saw her hiding and throwing up today." The face is also extremely ugly, I'm afraid it's upper! β
Lu's face changed, and he slapped the table hard, "Cheap/human." How dare you play tricks in front of me! I almost hurt Rou'er last time...... This time, you dare to carry me behind your back ......", Lu's eyes emitted a faint light.
"Ah Yan, I heard that my aunt has served the master very well recently. You can help me get some blood swallows and give them to her!" Remember, you have to send it in front of the master! βγ Lu Shi only regained his clarity for a moment, and his expression could no longer see joy and anger.
Mother Huang nodded, "Slave maid is going!" I'm only afraid that I'll be there, and it's just right to go! β
"Sue Aunt SΓΉ Ming, if there is anything missing, sue me, I didn't have to come out of the Lu family, and now I am a sister, and I am still so unfamiliar!" , Lu's voice was a little cold, and it looked a little calm in the night.
"Yes! The slave knows! Let Angelica Angelica come and serve you! Huang's mother has followed Lu for many years and knows Lu's temper. After Lu Shi answered, he retreated.
When she met Bai Zhi at the door, Huang's mother whispered, "Mrs. is not in a very good mood, be careful." β
Bai Zhi nodded, lifted the curtain and went in.
Early the next morning, the Lu family went to greet the Wang family, stayed for a while, and then left the Ronghua Courtyard. Immediately after, the news spread throughout the house.
Mrs. Ke celebrated her birthday, and Aunt Hao, Aunt Ming, and Aunt Xia in the house assisted the eldest lady Lu to hold a birthday banquet together.
When the news came out, everyone in the Ke Mansion was shocked. This is in Kefu, although the young ladies and young masters are very concerned, but people with the status of aunts are generally ignored.
And this time, it is too much attention that these three aunts can come out to preside over affairs. First is Aunt Hao, she is the only aunt who has a big house, she is very low-key on weekdays, and rarely appears in front of people; Aunt Ming, who has caused a big storm recently, but is well protected by the eldest master Ke Zhengnan, should not be underestimated; And the last Aunt Xia is really the one who makes everyone guess infinitely. The house has a simple population of two rooms, one wife, one concubine, two daughters and one son. Among them, Aunt Xia gave birth to the only young master and third young master in the second room, and it is not uncommon for the second master to favor Aunt Xia in the house.
Everyone speculated, did the second wife completely lose? The result of Li's mother's family, everyone is still a little concerned, and the Yu family has basically never been out of their own yard since then, and they look like they don't care about the world at all.
Seeing such a result, the direction of the wind of a group of people immediately changed. Let's not mention the big house, Aunt Xia in this second room, I'm afraid she is going to have a good time. But it was only when everyone wanted to talk to Aunt Xia that everyone was shocked. Over the years, few people have seen Aunt Xia! I don't know what she likes! So, it was another earth-shaking search for news.
Shaohua Temple
Aunt Ming pinched the veil tightly, thought about it, and stepped into the Lu family's courtyard.
When Chuan Bei saw her, he smiled and said, "What a coincidence that my aunt came!" As soon as the lord comes, you are also here, aunt! β
Aunt Ming's face turned white, and she smiled, "I'...... I'm just here to find my wife! If the master is here, I'll come back later! β
Chuan Bei hurriedly grabbed her, "Don't go!" Don't leave! Auntie, don't go! After a while, the old man will know, and the slave's skin will be gone! After speaking, he immediately gave the little girls a look, and when he saw the little girls open the curtain, he immediately said, "Master, madam, Aunt Ming is here!" β
Aunt Ming only felt that although it was Layuetian, she still felt cold all over, and her heart was also a little cold. The veil tightened, and he bit his lip, but he went in anyway.
As soon as she entered, Aunt Ming felt that the room was not warm and couldn't help sneezing. Only then did he realize that he had lost his manners, covered his mouth with a handkerchief, and quietly raised his head.
Ke Zhengnan was dressed in civilian clothes and was having breakfast with Lu. This is a habit for many years, no matter what, when he returns home, he will definitely accompany the Lu family to use some.
"Sir, ma'am!" , Aunt Ming only felt that there seemed to be something wrong, and she didn't seem to be able to come in.
"Yo, Aunt Ming is here! What's wrong? On weekdays, you don't come to my Shaohua Courtyard! Lu Shi put down his chopsticks and asked with a smile.
"Madam, the concubine just thinks that she is young and embarrassed, and this old lady's birthday is a big deal, so the concubine will not participate!" , Aunt Ming smelled the smell of breakfast, only felt that her stomach was overturned, and when she thought of something, she endured it deeply, picked up the handkerchief and smelled it, and then she felt better.
"Not involved? Sister, it's not like I'm going to take the lead for you! This is what the old lady herself said, in the past few days, there have been many things in the house, and seeing that I am working hard alone, let a few of you aunts also come out to take care of the council! Old lady, this is a chance to give you a long face, my sister doesn't cherish it! The smile on Lu's face was even worse, and he couldn't see any flaws.
Ke Zhengnan also frowned and put down his chopsticks, "You came to your wife's yard early in the morning just to push off the work of your father's birthday banquet?" Since this is what your father ordered, you can do it well! β
Aunt Ming was a little aggrieved, her eyes were full of emotion that she wanted to talk about, and her voice softened, "Master, the concubine is just a slave, where do you know so many things." When the time comes, it will be even more ...... to embarrass the master."
Lu Shi smiled and said, "Master, look at you, you just spoil your sister!" My Kefu, even if it is an aunt, when I go out, others will look up to me. How can anyone look down on themselves! β
Ke Zhengnan's brows furrowed even deeper, "Hmm! Madame has a point! He turned his head to Aunt Ming and said, "Mingzhu, take this as an opportunity!" On weekdays, it is indeed hard for your wife to manage the huge family alone! This time, you should be relieved of your wife's worries! β
Aunt Ming secretly hated in her heart, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, could it be that the Lu family knew that she was pregnant? So deliberately dig a pit for yourself to jump? Could this birthday banquet be to kill the baby in his belly?
Thinking of this, Aunt Ming felt that the whole person was not good. She hasn't forgotten that there are so many concubines in the big house, but only Aunt Hao can give birth to a child. She would never allow that to happen! She must have children of her own! Thinking of this, he looked at Ke Zhengnan with great grievances, and silence was better than sound.
"Sister, don't blame the sister for not reminding you, you have to stand behind the master, and you have to help the master deal with things in the future. You little family style, but you can't do it! Look at Aunt Hao, she has accepted it gladly. However, if my sister has any difficulties, she can say it directly! Lu Shi picked up the tea, took a sip gently, and saw that Ke Zhengnan on the side already had a distressed look on his face, a cold light appeared, and he lowered his head again, "Also, if the master still wants to raise his sister as a canary in the backyard, I will go to tell my father and mother, explaining that my aunt is unwell!" β
Although Ke Zhengnan has many wives and concubines, he will definitely give the Lu family the status and respect he deserves. He also felt that Aunt Ming was indeed a little angry, and if he helped Aunt Ming say something, he was afraid that his wife would lose face.
"That's it! Go back to your own yard! Do what your wife tells you to do! Don't make a fuss! Ke Zhengnan waved his hand, his tone was already impatient.
Aunt Ming bit her lip, and her unwilling look flashed in her eyes. Fu bowed, turned around and went out.
Purple Orchid Temple
Qiqiao nodded with a smile and said to Chuanbei, "Got it, trouble sister!" Then he opened the curtain and walked in to look at the two who were playing against each other and said with a smile, "Miss, it's done!" β
The corner of Ke Xiyuan's lips hooked up a smile, and a son fell, "Sister-in-law, here, you are surrounded!" β
Lu Jiarou also fell behind, "A good hand of chess!" It's a pity for the chess pieces! β
"No regrets!" , Ke Xiyuan raised a happy smile, and the beauty of this moment made Lu Jiarou a little distracted. (To be continued)
