Chapter Twenty-Three: The Twin Sisters

"Let's go back. Pen%Fun%Pavilion www.biquge.info "Chang Di took Lu Shu's hand and went home.

Lu Shu glanced back at the door of the Liu family, bit his lip, and finally nodded.

When Chang Di and the two returned to Lu's house, the brothers Yang Yu and Pan Yong greeted them and asked Liu Ji about his situation.

Chang Di said suspiciously: "Didn't Mr. Chuan tell you when he came back?" ”

"Nope." Pan Jiang said truthfully: "As soon as he went back, he went back to the room, and asked me to go to the kitchen and bring him two jars of wine." ”

The wine was given by the villagers and neighbors, and it has been idle in the kitchen, Mr. Chuan usually doesn't drink a drop of alcohol, why did he remember to drink when he came back today?

However, she didn't have time to manage Mr. Chuan now, so she asked Yang Yu: "Is my father in the study?" ”

"Hmm." Yang Yu said: "In the past few days, my father has been locking himself in the study except for seeing guests. ”

Even if he smiled decently in front of the guests, he would laugh when he heard the jokes told by the guests, but Lu Gong, who was locked in the study, was really quiet and terrifying.

At this time, someone outside shouted, "Is there anyone?" ”

Chang Di looked at Lu Shu, but Lu Shu said that she wanted to go back to the room.

So Chang Di went out, and saw a well-dressed woman and a delicate maid, and she asked softly, "Is there something wrong?" ”

The maid glanced at Chang Di, glanced into the courtyard, and asked in a somewhat unkind tone, "Are you Miss Lu?" ”

The old lady is really, she actually asked her and Mother Wen to hand over the post to the Lu family in person. The maid was disdainful.

The woman glanced at her with disgust and said with a smile: "The girl is irritable, Miss don't forget to go to your heart." ”

"I'm not Miss Lu, I'm the adopted daughter of the Lu family." Lu Shu replied generously and appropriately, not arrogant or impatient.

Chang Di didn't deliberately show a smile, but her mouth showed a natural arc slightly, and Rao Shiwen's mother also felt that this girl's temperament was much more noble than the ladies in the house.

The Lu family has two adopted daughters, and Mother Wen looked at the girl's age and the news she had obtained, and felt that the person in front of her should be Miss Changdi, who was polite and modest among the villagers.

"That's right, we are the servants of the Jiang family." Mother Wen said as she took out a gilded invitation from her sleeve.

Chang Di raised his eyebrows and asked, "Jiang family?" The Jiang family who lives in the green alley? ”

Mother Wen should say "yes" and said: "My old lady celebrated her seventieth birthday on the 25th of this month, and held a small banquet in Jiang's house, hoping that Gong Lu and Miss Lu could go to the banquet with their faces. After finishing speaking, she added, "It's best if Miss Changdi can come, my third lady has been talking to you in front of the old lady." ”

Chang Di's eyebrows jumped, can Miss Jiang San talk to her? Is the sun coming out in the west this morning?

The gilded invitation was held in the air by Wen's mother, and Chang Di didn't take it.

Today is the nineteenth, and the twenty-fifth is only a few days away.

Mother Wen said: "The old lady said that the post represents the heart, and the heart is only required to be delivered." ”

It means that the Lu family took the post, and the old lady will not embarrass the Lu family whether they go or not.

It's all so clear, Chang Di took it without hesitation, the gilded purple and red cover, holding it in his hand, he felt heavy in his heart.

"Since the young lady accepted the post, the old woman went back to Jiang's house to return to the old lady." Mother Wen said goodbye.

Chang Di touched her nose inexplicably, the reason why she happily took the post was because she had heard Lu Gong say that Lu Shu's mother was the eldest aunt and grandmother of the Jiang family.

The Jiang family is Lu Shu's maternal grandfather's family, and his grandmother has celebrated her seventieth birthday.

Moreover, Lu Gong and his deceased wife have a deep relationship with each other, and Lu Gong should also go to the banquet in the face of his deceased wife.

Thinking of this, Chang Di clenched his fists and let it go.

She walked to the study where Lu Gong often sat quietly, raised her hand and knocked on the hidden door, and after a while, Chang Di knocked on the door again, but no one answered.

"Father?" Chang Di whispered softly, carefully pushed open the door and walked in.

The study room was neatly arranged, and on the quaint desk was a piece of drawing paper, on which a beautiful woman and a well-behaved and cute little girl were drawn.

The woman's face was filled with a happy smile, sitting under the phoenix tail bamboo in the yard, watching the little girl hold a bouquet of fragrant flowers in front of her, she happily reached out to pick it up.

The picture stops at this moment, like the most gorgeous fireworks blooming in the night sky, forever frozen on the drawing paper.

Chang Di's eyes were gloomy, and he finally sighed as he glanced at the paintings hanging from the strings crisscrossing the room.

Mrs. Lu died the day after giving birth, and Lu Shu had never met her mother, so these pictures were all imagined in Lu Gong's mind.

Wrong......!

Chang Di approached to take a closer look at the painting, and found that in the corner of the inconspicuous courtyard in the painting, there was a girl in a goose yellow dress who was counting ants.

How can there be two little girls in the painting?

The girl who sent flowers to Mrs. Lu was Lu Shu, so who was the girl who counted ants?

"Changdi."

Lu Gong's old voice sounded behind Chang Di, and the sound of light footsteps was getting closer and closer, and Chang Di was so startled that he immediately turned around.

Lu Gong asked her, "Is there anything wrong with me?" ”

"I ......" Chang Di felt that his throat was very dry, and he settled down before saying: "Liu Ji is seriously injured, I have seen it, and the injury has stabilized and is not in danger of life." ”

"Hmm." Lu Gong nodded, and his eyes fell silently on the post in her hand.

Chang Di took a step ahead of him and said: "This is a post sent by the Jiang family, saying that Mrs. Jiang will celebrate her seventieth birthday in a few days, and let you and Lu Shu go to the banquet." ”

After Chang Di finished speaking, he lowered his head and secretly observed Lu Gong's reaction with the corner of his eye.

She doesn't know what Mrs. Jiang is like now, but she only remembers that when she was a child, the friendly old lady would carry a bag of candy every time she came to Lu Mansion for the New Year, and then as soon as she entered the door, she and Lu Shuyang fish divided it up, and Zhao Chu would also get a sesame candy made by the old lady herself.

However, later the Lu family was defeated, and the Jiang family rarely had contact with the Lu family.

Seeing that Lu Gong was staring at the post in a daze, Chang Di called him gently: "Father, you ...... Going? ”

Lu Gong said: "Go, why don't you go?" The Jiang family meddled in the affairs of the Xu family, how could they seek justice for Shu'er. ”

Mrs. Xu, as the third daughter of Mrs. Jiang, is bound to go back to her parents' house to celebrate her birthday, and Lu Shu is also Mrs. Jiang's own granddaughter, and the family must settle the accounts clearly.

Chang Di turned his head and looked back at the paintings hanging all over the room, and it was not difficult to see that there was a second girl in a goose yellow dress in the paintings.

She couldn't help but ask the question in her heart, "Father, who is that girl?" ”

I thought that Lu Gong was angry or silent, but I didn't expect him to answer Chang Di without hesitation.

"That's Shu'er's sister."

"Sister?" Chang Di was surprised, thinking that this was simply impossible.

Mrs. Lu died after giving birth to Lu Shu that year, and Fusu sent someone to investigate, and it was indeed dead. How could it be possible to jump out of a sister again?

Seeing that Chang Di didn't believe it, Lu Gong said very seriously: "It's her sister, her biological sister." ”

Chang Di smiled: "Father, don't be joking. ”

Could it be the outer room that Lu Gong raised outside? Chang Di was chilled by this thought, and hurriedly shook his head in his heart.

Lu Gong didn't know Xiao Jiujiu in Chang Di's heart, he still said very seriously: "She and Shu'er are twins. ”

Twins are considered ominous among the people.

Lu Gong said with a sad face: "Later, she was taken away, but I saw her some time ago, and she was not doing well. ”

Chang Di suddenly couldn't laugh, and she said that she needed time to consume this shocking secret.

"Are you going to bring her back? Since it is the father's biological daughter, it is not a way to live abroad, what age is this, who cares if the twins are unlucky. ”

Chang Di's proposal, but Lu Gong vetoed it.

"I'll talk about this later, so there's no hurry. You go and prepare a birthday gift for the old lady of the Jiang family. ”

Lu Gong said that if he didn't mention it, he couldn't mention it, and Chang Di said "okay" in a slightly disappointed way, and then walked out of the study.
