Chapter Seventy-One: After the Birthday Banquet

As soon as the carriage drove into the second gate of Lu's house, before it could stop, Lu Zhilan jumped off the car in a huff, and no longer treated Yu Zhihua with the same courtesy as before, and walked to the backyard by herself without saying a word. Zhi'an glanced at the eldest sister apologetically, hurriedly followed, and reminded loudly: "Third sister, slow down, don't fall." ”

Zhilan pouted, speechless all the way, and when she returned to the second room to see her mother, her flat little face showed a look of grievance: "Mother......"

The second lady was holding a bowl of milk and egg custard in her hand, and was coaxing her son Lu Yu to eat, and when she turned around and saw her daughter's wronged look, she put away the loving smile on her face, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhilan didn't answer, and rushed straight into her mother's arms, so startled that the second lady quickly put down the bowl in her hand and hugged her. "Zhi'an, come on, is it in the eldest princess's mansion that someone is angry with your third sister?" The second lady had a calm face and asked the maid who came in later.

Zhi'an hurriedly knelt down and shook her head silently.

Zhilan raised her head from her mother's arms, sobbed and cried: "Mother, no one in the eldest princess's mansion is angry with her daughter. ”

"Then why are you doing this?" Seeing her daughter's tears rolling down one after another, she just didn't answer, and the second lady was anxious: "Ouch, mother's heart, who bullied you, you said!" Do you want to die in a hurry? ”

Ten-year-old Lu Yu was already much sensible, and walked over and handed his sister his handkerchief: "Third sister, don't cry, who dares to bully you, my brother will be angry for you to beat him to death." Usually, if someone upsets him, his mother always says, "Drag it down and beat him." You deserve to be killed. Over time, Lu Yu will learn the same.

Perhaps it was her mother's concern and her brother's comfort that played a role, Zhilan took the handkerchief and wiped away her tears. An ancient brain poured out the grievances in his abdomen: "...... In this way, the eldest sister has been in the limelight in the eldest princess's mansion, and everyone is full of praise for her, who can still see her daughter! When she went out in the morning, she did not allow her daughter to wear the new clothes specially prepared by her mother, and her daughter followed her, just like the little maid who served her. No one looks at me squarely! ”

When the second lady heard that it was just this kind of grievance, she was not beaten and scolded as she thought, but she was relieved. "Hi. I thought it was a big deal, just such a small grievance, is it worth it for you to be like this? ”

As soon as Zhilan heard that her mother was not on her side, the tears that had just stopped flowed again: "Mother...... You don't hurt me anymore. ”

Lu Yu is a little boy. How do you understand the complicated twists and turns in the heart of my daughter's family. Listen to my sister. I didn't think it was a big deal, seeing that she started crying again, she scraped her cheek with her fingers and teased: "Sister loves crybaby, shame face." ”

With her younger brother's actions, Zhilan's original grievances were magnified to ten points, and she cried even louder.

The second lady was so noisy by this voice that her brain hurt, she waved her hand to let the nurse take away her son, and motioned to the maid who was kneeling on the ground and had numb legs to step back. When there was no one else in the room, he taught his daughter in a good voice. "Lan'er. You listen to your mother. Earlier, my mother didn't let you prepare to perform a talent show, and I didn't plan to let you show off at this birthday banquet. You just need to quietly follow the girl in the big house and leave a good impression of the suppleness and duty to those nobles. Your father has no official position, and with a family like ours, he can't expect to marry into a high family and become a wife, and it is not difficult to find a noble concubine. And if those nobles want to give their sons concubines, the first thing to consider is the kind of well-behaved and obedient ones, and it's a good thing that you don't have that limelight. ”

Zhilan didn't expect her mother to have such thoughts, and her eyes widened: "Mother, how can you ...... How can you let your daughter be a concubine? "Zhi'an's biological mother is a concubine, what kind of life is lived, Zhilan can't see it.

"Silly girl, what do you know! Mother can still harm you! Your family background is innocent, and you have an uncle and uncle who are officials to rely on, if you can marry into a wealthy family as a concubine, then your life is better than marrying a poor scholar as a wife. With your face, you can't worry about the favor of your future uncle at all, maybe it's not impossible to suppress that wife. ”

Zhilan was still a little confused: "Since my mother didn't plan to let her daughter be in the limelight from the beginning, why did she deliberately prepare a new skirt that was so eye-catching?" ”

The second lady looked at her ignorant daughter, sighed, and continued to teach patiently: "If you want to enter the eyes of that nobleman, it is not enough to have a soft temperament, you must also have a good appearance that people can't forget at a glance." My mother made that skirt for you, just because I was afraid that you would be too quiet and not enough to attract attention. But your eldest sister is right to let you replace it. Today's protagonists are the eldest princess and the county lord of Minyi, and it's not good for you to steal the limelight from the master's house if you dress too eye-catching. ”

Zhilan worked hard to digest her mother's teachings, and after thinking for a while, she was still reluctant: "Mother, I don't want to be a concubine for others......"

"You ......" The second lady was angry, but she didn't expect that what she said for a long time was in vain. Rubbing the corners of her forehead, she pressed her temperament and continued to persuade her daughter, "You listen to your mother, even if you are a concubine, you are different from these aunts in our house......"

Not to mention how the second lady taught her daughter over there, here in Qiuhua Courtyard, Mother Han, who had stayed in the courtyard all day to watch the house, also heard about the limelight at the young lady's birthday banquet, and she held back her words, and finally seized the opportunity to speak after the young lady had dinner.

"Mom has something to say, right? Come, sit down and talk. "Han's mother's thoughts are written on her face, how can Zhihua not see it. After the dinner was removed, she dismissed the rest of the people, made two cups of tea with her own hands, and let Han's mother speak openly.

Mother Han sat on the chair in Miss's fingers, picked up the cup of tea she had made for herself, sorted out her thoughts, and then spoke: "Miss, Miss Zou took the initiative to provoke today, for the sake of the prince?" Zou Mingqing's youngest daughter was thinking, and the smart Bai Lan also saw it in her eyes, and when she learned from Han's mother, she inevitably mentioned it.

Zhihua nodded, but did not deny it, "I guess so." The way I am now, in addition to a good-sounding name as a countryman, only this family affair can make her red-eyed. ”

"Miss, this time you can't be stubborn again, and have the intention of withdrawing from your relatives again." Han's mother looked worried.

Zhihua laughed, and after a long time, Han's mother was worried about this. "Mom, don't worry, I don't have this plan."

Han's mother still didn't believe it, after all, Miss was a person with a criminal record. "Forgive the slave maid and ask Miss more, if there is also a relationship between Miss Zou and the prince, will Miss still withdraw from her family?"

Zhihua had never thought of this assumption, and was stopped by her for a while. He pondered for a moment before he replied: "If he is like that Zhang family son, he has a different mind, I will not wronged myself, and I will finally withdraw from my family." ”

That's what Han's mother was afraid of. "Miss, why are you so stubborn? The family background of the prince is there, even if he has nothing to do with Miss Zou this time, and Miss Zhang San, Miss Li Si or something, he will find a way to hurry up to marry the prince as a concubine, you are willing, just retreat without a fight, and give your husband to others again? ”

As a woman herself, how could Mother Han not understand her daughter's stubbornness but beg for one-hearted people. But the world is here, and the young lady is not an ordinary person. If you don't see it early and retire again, after the young lady, you will really be lonely for a lifetime. Therefore, Han's mother knew that Miss was a person with a very good idea, but she had to harden her heart and say these unspeakable advice, hoping that she would listen to one or two.

"What if I'm not reconciled? If he really has someone else in his heart, no matter how much I force it, it will be humiliating myself. Zhihua looked firm and unmoved. Glimpsing that Han's mother opened her mouth to persuade again, she knew that this was a good intention, but she really couldn't listen to it, so she interrupted: "It's too early to say this, and the son of the world may not really change his mind." I understand my mother's kindness, but I'm worried about this early now, it's really a mediocre person, so let's talk about it one day. ”

So, the rest of Han's mother's words were choked back into her stomach. She sighed, "It's the slave who has a lot of mouths." Miss is also tired for a day today, slave maid serve you to rest. (To be continued.) )
