Chapter Twenty-Nine: The First Meeting of the Lu Family 2
The person at the door who spoiled the scenery was Aunt Wang, the housekeeper of the Lu Mansion, and she was also Mrs. Lu's maid back then. Aunt Wang is over fifty years old, but she walks very neatly, without the state of a dragon bell, and in the blink of an eye, she has already walked in front of Lu You, and asked, "Third Young Master, Third Young Grandma, are you ready?" ”
Lu You asked suspiciously, "Aunt Wang?" Mother is urging tightly? ”
Aunt Wang smiled, "The young master is too worried, Madam is afraid that you two will not do anything, so she specially sent me over to take care of it." After speaking, he looked around and saw no trace of Tang Wan, and said, "What?" Young grandma hasn't cleaned up yet? ”
Lu You replied, "It's almost there." ”
Aunt Wang continued, "Take advantage of this stall, I'll tell you about the next thing, and when you get to the hall later, young master, you just need to do what I say." In fact, it's just a cup of tea, very quickly. ”
Lu You said, "Okay, there is Aunt Lao." ”
Aunt Wang said with a smile, "Young Master is polite, you can rest assured, the great gifts of the eldest young master and the second young master are all handled by me, Aunt Wang, although I am old, but people are not confused, and they can't make mistakes." After speaking, he sighed lightly and said, "Young Master, you said that this time is really faster than anything else, when the eldest young master got married, you were not yet born, and when the second young master got married, you were not so old." As he spoke, he gestured his hand to his waist. Now in the blink of an eye, young master, you have also become a family, and the old lady is really going to enjoy Qingfu now. ”
As soon as the words fell, Tang Wan was already dressed neatly, appeared in front of everyone, and when he saw Aunt Wang, he leaned slightly and shouted hello.
Aunt Wang hurriedly approached, wrapped her hands around Tang Wan, and said with a smile, "Look at our three young grandmothers, yesterday was red and beautiful, and today is light and beautiful, Aunt Wang, I was stunned, but let you say hello first, it really shouldn't be." Don't blame me! ”
Tang Wan is really not a person who can speak well, so he only replied politely at this time, "Aunt Wang said with a smile." ”
Aunt Wang saw that Lu You and Tang Wan were all people who were not good at words, and she seemed to talk a little too much, so she said, "Since everything is fine, let's go." ”
So Aunt Wang led in the front, and the two newcomers followed. Entering the main hall, I saw Master Lu and Mrs. Lu sitting in the middle, and the second elder watched his son and daughter-in-law walk in, with a face full of joy.
Sitting on the side is Lu Song, the son of the Lu family, who is nearly middle-aged, seems to be mature and steady, and there is a dignified and simple woman sitting next to him, it is his wife He Yuniang, and there is a man and a woman standing behind him.
On the other side sat Lu Wei, the second son of the Lu family, who was seven years older than Lu You, and was more similar to Lu You in appearance, but slightly older. The woman sitting next to her is his wife Li Ruyu, who is as beautiful as her name, but she is dressed in gold and silver, which is slightly tacky. Li Ruyu put her arms around a ten-year-old girl in front of her, and it seemed that she should be the daughter of the two of them.
Lu You Tang Wan walked to the front, both knelt in front of the second elder, the maid brought two cups of tea, the two took it, respectfully raised it above their heads, and said in unison, "Dad, mother, drink tea." ”
Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu looked at each other and smiled, reached out to take the cup, took a sip, and said happily, "Okay, get up." ”
After Lu You Tang Wan got up, he followed Aunt Wang to Lu Song and He Yuniang, the maid served tea, and the two of them stood up and offered it, and said, "Big brother and sister-in-law, please drink tea." Lu Song He Yuniang also took a sip and saluted back.
Lu Song put the cup in his hand on the table and said to the two young people behind him, "Yun'er, Xiao'er, come and see your uncle and aunt." "It turns out that Lu Wei's sons and daughters, one is called Lu Yun and the other is Lu Xiao. The two young men listened to their father's instructions, and immediately called Uncle and Aunt respectfully. Lu Xiao looked at Tang Wan, handed over a very delicate brocade box, and said with a smile, "Little aunt, this is what my mother carefully selected for you." ”
He Yuniang on the side opened her mouth and said, "Brother and sister, prepare a little little courtesy, open it and see if you like it." ”
Tang Wan took the brocade box and opened the lid, which contained a string of glittering glass beads. Tang Wan only looked at this dazzling brilliance, and knew that this thing was worth a lot of money, as the saying goes, no merit is not rewarded, Tang Wan intuitively accepted this thing, felt guilty, and hurriedly said, "Sister-in-law, such a precious thing, Wan'er dare not accept it." ”
He Yuniang said with a smile, "What is precious or not, just like a good horse with a good saddle, this good-looking glass bead must be matched with a person like you to highlight its brilliance." Besides, I have asked the monks of Yuji Temple to open the light for this glass bead, which not only protects many sons and blessings, but also protects the safety of the family. ”
Seeing this scene, Mrs. Lu, who was seated, said, "Sister-in-law has a good intention, you can accept it." ”
When Tang Wan heard the three words of Yuji Temple, his heart suddenly felt a pimple, and he didn't think much about it anymore after listening to Mrs. Lu's instructions, and after expressing his gratitude a little, he asked Fluttershy behind him to take the brocade box for the time being.
Lu You and Tang Wan came to Lu Wei and Li Ruyu and his wife again, and before the tea was served, Li Ruyu said, "That's it, don't drink this tea for the time being, the second sister-in-law will accompany you first," This is just a meeting, what will be wrong with her, Lu You Tang Wan was puzzled, and was stunned for a while, not knowing how to respond.
Li Ruyu continued, "Brother and sister, you just entered the Lu family, you don't know, your second brother is an official in Fuzhou, and our family of three is in Fuzhou on weekdays. ”
When Mrs. Lu heard the words, she suddenly looked displeased, and said, "Ruyu, what are you talking about, what kind of meeting gift is not a meeting gift." There can be no ceremony, but the tea must be drunk, you are the elder, and the two of them should respect you. ”
Li Ruyu turned her head and said to Mrs. Lu, "Mother, what you said is true, but the sister-in-law's glass beads have a good meaning, and they are still bright in front of the Buddha, but I, the second sister-in-law, am empty-handed, so I can't say anything." That's it, brother and sister, if you don't dislike it, please accept this bracelet. After speaking, he took off a crystal clear jade bracelet on his wrist.
Tang Wan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Second sister-in-law, no need, no need." ”
Li Ruyu said, "Brother and sister, you must accept this, otherwise my second sister-in-law will have trouble sleeping and eating in the future." As he spoke, he forcibly pulled Tang Wan's hand and put the jade bracelet on.
Tang Wan wanted to take off the jade bracelet, but he didn't know that the jade bracelet was easy to put on, but it was difficult to take it off, so he couldn't take it off at this time. Li Ruyu said, "Brother and sister, don't insist anymore, this jade bracelet is also about fate and recognition of the master, I think it is to recognize you as the master today." ”
