Chapter 123: Envelopes
Lu Qingrong held the letter in his hand, and he had no intention of opening it at all.
Jiang Xuan's eyes casually swept over the envelope, and he didn't linger long.
Lu Qingrong was a little hesitant, not knowing whether to say something or not.
"Sister Jiang is the eldest daughter of Lord Jiang Shenzhi. We have known each other since childhood, and she has been living with her father and brother in the South Courtyard of Lufu for the past two years. ”
She herself didn't know why she had to explain it so clearly.
Jiang Xuan didn't care much, and asked casually, "Then Guining should have seen it yesterday, right?" ”
"See." Lu Qingrong continued: "Yesterday, I saw that Sister Jiang's handkerchief was well embroidered, so I asked her for a pattern, but I didn't know that I was in a hurry and didn't have time to get it." ”
After speaking, Lu Qingrong handed the envelope back to Qiulan: "Put it in the embroidery basket first!" ”
Qiulan took the envelope and wondered very much, where did Madame get the basket?
When I was in Wisteria Pavilion before, I almost never saw my wife do needlework, and then I lived in the Yuyuan, and I didn't hear anything about my wife.
Looking at Lu Qingrong's unusually firm eyes, Qiulan didn't ask much, and took the envelope into the inner room with suspicion, and really didn't see the so-called show basket after searching in the house for a long time, so she simply put it on the table and walked out.
Lu Qingrong breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Qiu Lan's actions.
Over there, Jiang Xuan opened his mouth: "You still embroider?" ”
"I've learned a little, but I'm not good at it." Lu Qingrong said simply.
In fact, it's not just that they are not good at it, taking these young ladies in the Lu Mansion as an example, Lu Fangyu and Jiang Yunpei are naturally incomparable, and even Lu Qianyu is probably worse.
"In that case, how about you embroider a veil for me too? You don't need to be complicated, just plain. Jiang Xuan explained, "There are a lot of people in the Yu Courtyard, but there is no one who is good at needlework. ”
Lu Qingrong really couldn't find a reason to refuse, so he had to agree.
Who let her mention the embroidered veil herself!
Fortunately, although her needlework is definitely not on the table, the embroidery work of Chunyu in the maid is very outstanding, and she will help embroider a handkerchief when the time comes.
It wasn't until after lunch and after Jiang Xuan went out that Lu Qingrong returned to the inner room alone.
opened the envelope on the table, there was no word from Jiang Yunpei in it, but another envelope was directly sandwiched, and Lu Qingrong's name was still written on it, but there was no more payment.
What caught his eye was some familiar fonts, and Lu Qingrong didn't have to guess who sent it.
What puzzled her was that Jiang Yunpei had always been a prudent and cautious person, why did he blatantly send a letter for Jiang Ling this time, and now it was different from the past, it was much more dangerous to send a letter to the Hou Mansion.
Lu Qingrong believed that Jiang Yunpei would definitely not be unconcerned about his situation, and it must be Jiang Ling's method to do so.
She didn't think much about it anymore and tore open the envelope inside.
When he saw the things inside, Lu Qingrong was even more stunned.
There was not even a word from Jiang Ling in it, this time there was not even a painting, and it was an envelope, but this time it was Jiang Ling.
Although there is no payment as usual, the font on it is too familiar to Lu Qingrong.
This is a letter sent by Lu Qianyu to Jiang Ling, the envelope is intact and has not been opened at all.
Lu Qingrong frowned, very headache.
Lu Qianyu would send a letter to Jiang Ling, but it was not too unexpected for her.
But what does Jiang Ling mean by this?
What do you want to do with sending yourself a letter that has not yet been opened?
Lu Qingrong's first reaction was not to think about the problem, but to be a little angry.
Didn't Jiang Ling know that he was already married? Although her family affair is a bit hasty, it has been at least a little bit of a toss before and after now. What's more, the Master Wu of the Hanlin Academy who took him on the tour also brought back a congratulatory gift.
Lu Qianyu likes him for this, and he has always been very obvious, as smart as Jiang Ling, it is impossible not to notice it.
If he had no intention of Lu Qianyu, then he would write a letter to reject her in person, and for Jiang Ling, it would be impossible to save face and be difficult to talk about.
Now that he is in the Hou Mansion and is upright and newly married, it is not easy to go back to the Lu Mansion to see Lu Qianyu, let alone enlighten her...... How is this for the better?
In an instant, Lu Qingrong suddenly thought of another possibility.
Jiang Ling's letter didn't say anything, and it was also his wishful thinking to ask her to enlighten Lu Qianyu.
Could it be that he didn't mean that, he didn't want to let himself persuade Lu Qianyu, but just to show this attitude of rejection in front of himself?
Since the previous life, Lu Qingrong has not been a narcissistic person, and this possibility is really difficult to appear in her mind.
But Jiang Ling's train of thought has always been out of the box, and it is not easy to speculate on his train of thought according to common sense.
At this moment, Lu Qingrong gradually felt that this statement was very likely, after all, if it was to persuade Lu Qianyu, then it was obviously better to send it to Jiang Yunpei, Jiang Yunpei lived in Lu Mansion, and he had been very close to Lu Qianyu in the past two years, Jiang Ling had no reason to send it to him.
The more Lu Qingrong thought about it, the more headache he felt.
If it's someone else, it's just that, Hengzhu himself has already married, and no one will have any inappropriate behavior.
Now it's Jiang Ling.
If Jiang Ling's character is summed up by Lu Qingrong, it is "without scruples", and there is nothing he dare not say or do. From a certain point of view, it can be said that he is courageous and bold, but the more essential reason is that he is not bound by any traditional etiquette from the heart, and the saints and sages who are worshiped as gods by all living beings are no different from ordinary people in his eyes.
Could it be that his status as a wife is not worth mentioning in his heart?
Even in the modern world of his previous life, this is not something that ordinary people dare to imagine, right?
Lu Qingrong began to feel a little uneasy, but there was nothing he could do.
No matter whether his guess was correct or not, no matter what Jiang Ling wanted, the only response at this time could only be not to reply.
In this case, as long as you reply to the letter, regardless of the content, it is extremely inappropriate.
Lu Qingrong did not open Lu Qianyu's letter, this was not written to herself, she paid great attention to privacy, and naturally respected the privacy of others.
Just as Lu Qingrong was holding the envelopes in his hands and meditating, a crisp sound suddenly sounded from the bead curtain inside, and Jiang Xuan pulled the curtain in.
Although they slept in two separate rooms these days, Jiang Xuan would occasionally come to the inner room to find Lu Qingrong during the day.
Lu Qingrong panicked at this time, and hurriedly folded Lu Qianyu's envelope with Jiang Ling's name written on it, and stuffed it into the third envelope together with another envelope.
Jiang Xuan saw Lu Qingrong's panic, and was a little embarrassed for a while: "I just came here to sue you for something!" ”
"What's the matter?" Lu Qingrong still held the envelope in his hand.
"Today's palace test list has been released. Di Qian ranked among the top three and was admitted to Tanhua! Jiang Xuan said.
"Really?" Lu Qingrong was very happy when he heard this, "When he first took the exam, he was fifth, and I told my eldest sister that if the palace exam was good, it would not be impossible to rank among the top three, but I didn't expect it to really make me right!" ”
"Hehe, so your eldest sister should thank you?" Jiang Xuan quipped.
"Of course!" Lu Qingrong was happy for Lu Fangyu and followed him to make fun.
"You can prepare a congratulatory gift and send it to Di Fu!" Jiang Xuan continued: "Regardless of whether the Hou Mansion sends it or not, our Yuyuan will also give a copy of it ourselves." ”
"Hmm." Lu Qingrong nodded, "You said it's good to send a Huang Fei ornament from the Jade Palace?" ”
"Everyone is already in high school, what's the use of that?" Jiang Xuan couldn't hide his smile.
"Who said high school is useless?" Lu Qingrong disagreed with his statement, "The title of this gold list is only once in a lifetime, so naturally it should be commemorated!" We send this just so that he can miss it from time to time, and after all, it is a good omen, and it is also an auspicious omen for future generations. ”
Jiang Xuan smiled, and didn't argue with her: "If you think it's good, then send that!" ”
Lu Qingrong also laughed when he heard this, thinking in his heart that he didn't know if an ornament was enough, whether it would be good to add something.
During the conversation, Jiang Xuan not only inadvertently saw the envelope in Lu Qingrong's hand, but his expression instantly froze.
I saw that the letterhead on the envelope was still written Lu Qingrong, but it was a little different from the font when Qiulan sent it in just now.
Jiang Xuan is proficient in calligraphy, which is by no means from the same person as the one just now.
And at this time, the three words on the envelope, Jiang Xuan always felt a sense of déjà vu, he must have seen it somewhere, but now he can't remember it for a while.
"You're all for girls, aren't they?" Jiang Xuan asked.
"Huh?" Lu Qingrong lost his mind for a moment, and hurriedly responded: "Hmm." ”
"What then? You can't embroider a girl's veil for me, can you? Jiang Xuan didn't question the envelope.
"You don't have to worry about that. Since you want to be cleaner, you can just embroider some ordinary lace, and you can use the same color thread as the handkerchief, which will not look abrupt. "Although Lu Qingrong can't do it, it's still okay to talk about it.
"Oh, that's hard work for you." After Jiang Xuan finished speaking, he turned around and left the inner room.
Lu Qingrong was a little confused.
When Jiang Xuan came in just now, and when the two talked later, he was all smiling, even if he objected to his statement, he didn't see him displeased, why did he suddenly pull down his face later?
It's not the first time that Jiang Xuan has been uncertain these days, and Lu Qingrong is also a little used to it, so he didn't think deeply about it at this time.
Just as he was thinking about quickly finding a safe place to put away the hot envelope, when he looked down, Lu Qingrong's face suddenly turned pale.
Because the two envelopes outside were written with her own name, she was in too much of a hurry when she put it just now, and she actually stuffed Jiang Yunpei's envelope inside, but it was Jiang Ling's one that she had been holding in her hand just now. RS
