Chapter 126: Entering the Cui Mansion (2)
had already guessed that this would be the result, Lu Qinghuan was not disappointed in the slightest, curtsits, and said lightly: "Thank you, Mom!" I also ask my mother to tell my grandmother on behalf of her son, and ask her to take care of her old people! Wait two days to visit her old man! ”
Mother Wang told Lu Qinghuan a few more words, knowing that she didn't bring a maid to come, so she pointed out the maid who accompanied her, and transferred two maids who looked very clever from the old lady's courtyard and pointed them out to Lu Qinghuan.
After Lu Qinghuan thanked him, he took the four maidservants out of the courtyard together.
Earlier, before they came to Chang'an, they had already written to the Cui family, so the courtyard where Lu Qinghuan lived had been cleaned up early, and it was her aunt Cui who had lived before.
This courtyard has not been inhabited for many years, but Cui Yi has always ordered someone to keep it, and someone cleans it every day, so when Lu Qinghuan moved in, it was exactly the same as it was more than ten years ago.
Looking at the fresh and elegant courtyard, there was no place without showing an elegant charm, and Lu Qinghuan finally understood why the Cui family was able to attract so many people's admiration back then.
After being tired of these days and basking in the sun for so long, Lu Qinghuan is now tired and tired, so she ordered her maid to prepare hot water, planning to bathe and change clothes and sleep well.
For everyone like Cui's, hot water is ready at any time, and as soon as Lu Qinghuan opened his mouth, a rough mother-in-law immediately went to bring hot water and sent it to the clean room.
Lu Qinghuan soaked in the ironing hot water, feeling the lack before, as if he had been washed clean by the hot water.
She breathed a long sigh of relief, after experiencing life and death. The world in front of her began to become more real in her heart. She finally understood that Yiqiē here was not just a game. It's a qiē that she has personally experienced.
It's just that I don't know if one day, when she finds Ah Li, should she leave decisively, or stay here with Pei Yuan?
Tangled questions kept robbing her mind of reason, and soon this chaotic thought turned into sleepiness and completely wrapped her.
In Mrs. Cui's room. After sending Lu Qinghuan away, Wang Ma returned to the room and reported to the old lady about the conversation with Lu Qinghuan.
"Wang Ma. Look at her, what is there to be dissatisfied with? Old Madam Cui took a sip of tea and asked lightly.
Wang Ma shook her head and thought for a while. Only then did he reply: "What the old slave has seen." Although this Lu lady's heart is high, the measure is not small, she stood in the yard for a long time, without the slightest dissatisfaction, but let the old slave tell the old lady that she is so good at cultivating! ”
"Sure enough, like her mother, she is a person who can look at eyes." Old Madam Cui's expression was extremely light, and she couldn't distinguish between joy and anger. She took a sip of her tea and put it back on the table. Looking at the orange sunlight outside through the window lattice, Man Sheng said: "I don't care what she came to Chang'an for, but the Cui family must not lose her name for a hundred years because of her!" ”
When Mrs. Cui said this, her always plain face showed a hint of fierceness, and the whole room was dyed with a little chill because of this, and even Mother Wang, who had served for many years, was a little afraid.
When Lu Qinghuan opened her eyes again, it was already dark, she rubbed her misty eyes, looked around, and found that she was sleeping on the soft couch in the main wing.
She was awakened by a maidservant named Yingge.
Yingge stood on the edge of the couch and said in a low voice: "Cousin girl, Da Lang is back, saying that he is having dinner in the flower hall today to wash the dust for his cousin." ”
Dalang? Cui Yi? A-Niang's rumored boyfriend?
Lu Qinghuan came back to his senses for a long time, and nodded to Yingge, "And then?" ”
Yingge obviously didn't keep up with Lu Qinghuan's thoughts, and after thinking for a while, he said slowly: "Cousin girl change clothes, let's hurry up, listen to the cage smoke of the report, everyone has arrived, just send cousin!" ”
"Huh? Then why didn't you call me earlier? There were still some foggy thoughts just now, and he was suddenly scared to sober up by Yingge's words, Lu Qinghuan hurriedly got up from the couch, but because he was too flustered, he stepped on the corner of his skirt and almost fell.
Yingge supported her and brought her to the dresser, and another maidservant, Yan Wu, had been waiting for her for a long time, and when she saw her sitting down, she immediately stepped forward to make up for her.
Lu Qinghuan was still a little unable to come back to his senses at the moment, and he always felt that something was wrong in his mind, and when he finished combing his hair, Yingge took a set of smoke-pink bandeau dresses and changed them on, and then he dressed up properly.
Seeing Yingge squatting and tying the belt on his chest, Lu Qinghuan quickly caught something, and opened his mouth to ask, "Yingge, how long have I been asleep?" ”
Yingge raised her eyes and looked at Lu Qinghuan, as if she didn't understand what she meant, and after thinking about it, she replied, "One hour!" ”
"Did you take me back to my room?"
"What?"
Seeing Yingge's ignorant face, Lu Qinghuan suddenly felt that it was not good, and it was not good to ask again, so he laughed dryly and changed the topic: "Have you done it?" Let's go! ”
From here to the flower hall in front, you need to go through the garden of the back house and go around the moon gate to the central hall.
This time, although it was a dark night, it still made Lu Qinghuan a little unbearable, and it didn't take long for him to sweat.
When he arrived at the flower hall, before Lu Qinghuan could speak, he heard a ******** with a clear voice say directly opposite the door: "This is Qinghuan, right?" I haven't seen it for many years, but it looks like this! Compare several ladies of our Cui family to the bottom! ”
There was no need to guess, Lu Qinghuan immediately knew that the person who spoke must be her aunt Xie.
This Xie Shi looks dignified and generous, and with just one sentence, he immediately attracted everyone's attention to Lu Qinghuan, which shows that he is by no means a simple character.
After Xie's words were lagging behind, Lu Qinghuan obviously noticed a few eyes full of disdain and hostility that fell on her, she swept around lightly, only to find that in addition to Xie, there were several women and little ladies.
Cui Yi had already stood up at this moment, glanced at Xie Shi beside him, and then said to Lu Qinghuan: "Qinghuan, are you here?" ”
In a word, it was faint, and there was no joy or expectation to hear it, but Lu Qinghuan could feel the deep meaning hidden behind Cui Yi's words.
He really had feelings for her mother!
Lu Qinghuan blessed his body, "I've seen my uncle, my aunt!" ”
"Sit down!" Xie Shi beckoned to Lu Qinghuan, and he was kind.
After Lu Qinghuan thanked him again, he sat down under the guidance of the maidservant, and then he had to scan the people in the flower hall in a circle.
Continuing the habit of the Han Dynasty, the Zhou Dynasty still eats at separate tables, Lu Qinghuan, as a guest and a junior, sat in the middle position, and she looked at the people who had seen her just now.
Because Lu Qinghuan came, Cui Yi invited the people in the second, third and fourth rooms of the Cui family to dine together.
The hostile gaze towards her just now came from this group of seemingly innocent ladies. (To be continued.) )
