Chapter 28: Returning Home (1)
Pei Yuan said a few more words, and then got up to say goodbye.
Helan Xuanyi was about to leave, and it was inconvenient to stay longer at the moment, so he picked up the medicine box and went out with Pei Yuan, but he heard Lu Qinghuan shouting behind him: "Helan! ”
Her voice was as clear as her eyes.
Helan Xuanyi paused, and the hand holding the strap of the medicine box tightened, and then he twisted his eyebrows and looked at Lu Qinghuan.
"There are many troubles Helan these days, if there is a chance in the future, I will definitely come to the door to thank you, I hope Helan Mo will be surprised!" Helan Xuanyi saved her twice, she has always remembered it in her heart, if she returns to Lu's house today, she doesn't know if she will see him again in the future, and she doesn't know when she will be able to repay this life-saving grace.
"Not necessarily." Helan Xuanyi gently spit out two words, and left here without looking back.
Pei Yuan glanced at Lu Qinghuan thoughtfully, nodded, and left with him.
Lu Qinghuan was the only one left in the room, she nested in the warm quilt, planning to sleep again, but as soon as she lay down, she heard Gui Niang outside shouting happily: "Lady, lady!" Da Lang came to pick up the lady and go home! ”
So fast? Lu Qinghuan couldn't help but be a little puzzled, she wouldn't believe that after this time, Lu Jinyan would suddenly have a conscience attack and care about her daughter, but it was good to return to Lu Mansion, she also wanted to see the kind-hearted Lin Niangzi in Gui Niang's mouth.
Lu Jinyan didn't arrive at the moment, but just sent someone to inform Gui Niang in advance, so that they would have time to pack their luggage. Although Lu Qinghuan has lived here for half a year, she doesn't pay a lot of salutes, and most of the clothes and jewelry brought from home have been sold for money to catch medicine when she was unconscious.
Today's snow hibiscus gold-rimmed arrow-sleeved pipa shirt on her body is already her best dress. Because of the head injury, the rosary did not tie her bun for her, but just wrapped a ribbon around her hair, and tied a bow on each side, although it was plain, but it did not lose its charm.
Without the weight of those headdresses, Lu Qinghuan fell relaxed, looking at the unfamiliar face in the bronze mirror, as if he was in a different world.
Although both of them are called Lu Qinghuan, their appearance is not similar. If it weren't for her own crossing, Lu Qinghuan in the mirror might have turned into dry bones, but she didn't know what she would become after she left here?
After touching for about an hour, Lu Jinyan came, still unsmiling and looking bleak. Seeing Lu Qinghuan sitting under the porch, he said with a stiff expression: "Why are you sitting outside blowing the wind?" Are you feeling better? ”
The tone is straightforward, and people don't hear the slightest hint of concern.
Lu Qinghuan has always had no good impression of him, even if Lu Jinyan looks quite kind at this moment, and his attitude is not as cold as before, but Lu Qinghuan knows in his heart that there must be some hidden reason for Lu Jinyan's sudden change.
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person when you reach out, although she knows that Lu Jinyan is hypocritical, Lu Qinghuan is still very smart and chooses to be good, and responds with a smile: "Thank you Aya for asking, my daughter is fine." ”
Seeing this, Lu Jinyan didn't bother to pretend to be concerned anymore, beckoned, and asked the subordinates to come over and take Lu Qinghuan's few packages to the car, and let Gui Niang serve Lu Qinghuan to get into the car.
From Mingshan to Mingxian, it can be reached in just over half an hour by carriage.
Sitting in the shaking carriage, Lu Qinghuan remembered that every time Nianzhu and others went into the city to grab medicine for themselves, they had to walk for an hour or two, often leaving early and returning late, which made Gui Niang Rosary and others, who were not used to walking the mountain road, suffer a lot.
Leaning on Gui Niang's arms, Lu Qinghuan looked at the rosary with a happy expression, and the worried Gui Bao, they were the first people she knew when she came to this world, and they were also the best people for her, this time when she returned to the Lu family, although she didn't know how long she would stay, but she must protect them well!
Seeing Lu Qinghuan's pair of apricot eyes turning straight, Gui Niang asked worriedly: "Lady, but it's uncomfortable there?" ”
Seeing Lu Qinghuan shaking his head, he said with concern: "It's still far from home, can the lady sleep for a while?" ”
"Yes, let's sleep, lady!" The rosary pulled out a blanket and put it over her.
Lu Qinghuan nodded as he said and closed his eyes.
I thought that she might not be able to fall asleep because of the bumpy carriage, but she didn't expect to fall asleep after a while, and suddenly the carriage shook violently, Lu Qinghuan was shaken dizzy, frowned and opened her eyes, only then did she realize that she was held tightly by Gui Niang, if not, she almost rolled to the ground. Lu Qinghuan sat up and quickly glanced around, only to find that the rosary and Gui Bao were both frightened and almost fell.
A few people were frightened, and then they heard a noise outside, and when they listened carefully, it seemed that the coachman was arguing with someone.
The rosary just wanted to lift the curtain to see the excitement, but Gui Niang stopped her with a voice, "The lady just woke up, don't open the window!" ”
said to Lu Qinghuan again: "The maid looked at the hour, and he was about to enter the city, so he must have collided with someone!" ”
As soon as the words fell, a little servant stepped forward and asked through the curtain, "Is Wu Niang injured?" ”
Lu Qinghuan ranks fifth in the Lu family, except for Gui Niang and others who call her a lady in private, most of the rest of the Lu family call her a fifth mother.
Although it sounds a little awkward, Lu Qinghuan also has to follow the local customs.
"Never." Lu Qinghuan listened to the sound outside and seemed to have calmed down, so he asked, "I don't know what happened just now?" ”
"Qi Wu Niang, just now Wu Niang's carriage was suddenly damaged due to the axle and crashed into a passing vehicle, and the coachman quarreled with us."
Broken axles? No wonder the bump just now was so bad, almost causing them to roll to the ground.
"Gui Niang, I want to go down and have a look."
Gui Niang twisted her eyebrows, although she felt that it was inappropriate, she still nodded according to her words, let the rosary take a hat and put it on Lu Qinghuan's head, and personally put on a cloak for her, "I'll go down with the lady!" ”
After speaking, Gui Niang took the lead in getting out of the car, and then lifted the curtain to help Lu Qinghuan down.
Through the scarf on the hat, Lu Qinghuan saw that the carriage she was riding in was upturned and hung on the carriage next to her, if it wasn't for the carriage that happened to pass by, the carriage she was riding would definitely fall crookedly, and it was very likely to fall into the moat on the side, so it was not as simple as almost falling.
She approached between the two carriages and glanced at the broken axle, which was made of fine ash wood, which would not break, and which was partially flat and apparently man-made.
It seems that someone doesn't want her to return to the Lu Mansion at all, but they don't know who this person is - is it the gentle and humble Lin Niangzi, or the extremely hypocritical Lu Jinyan?
Through the hood, Lu Qinghuan coldly glanced at the carriage in front of Lu Jinyan, no matter who wanted to harm her, she would not let it succeed again!
