"The second master is not young anymore, so he must have started talking about marriage a long time ago, right?" Lu Qingrong asked rhetorically.

Mrs. Wu was slightly stunned and did not answer her question.

The matter of discussing marriage to Jiang Ke is currently just quietly planning for her, not counting the clear road, Mrs. Wu doesn't want Lu Qingrong to know.

"What does this have to do with Ke'er's marriage?" Mrs. Wu felt that these were two completely unrelated things.

"Regardless of whether the second master has started to discuss marriage now, but after all, this is a matter of time after all!" Lu Qingrong didn't pierce her either, "Think about it, if the family who is talking about relatives knows that there are groups of maids in his eldest brother's yard...... It's hard to guarantee that you won't have to worry about it. If the second master's family affairs are affected because of this, we will really be a little embarrassed......"

Mrs. Wu frowned slightly when she heard this, she really didn't expect this in the past, but she didn't want to admit defeat: "How can others know about the affairs in our house?" ”

Before she could finish speaking, she realized that something was wrong.

In this way, doesn't he admit that he also thinks that the matter of the group of maids in the Yuyuan will cause criticism!

Mrs. Wu couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: "Besides, Jiang Xuan is the son of the world after all, and it is normal to be special." ”

Lu Qingrong naturally noticed the change in her expression, ignored her quibbles, and continued to analyze: "Although the rules in our house are very strict, after all, there are many people, and these things that are known to the house are really not uncommon if they are spread!" ”

Lu Qingrong noticed that Mrs. Wu's face was getting heavier and heavier, and knew that he had listened to her words, but he didn't stop there.

"What you just said 'the son of the world can be special' should not be able to find anything wrong in the eyes of irrelevant people, but if it is a family talking about marriage, it is a different matter. Although the identity of the second master and ......the prince is different," Lu Qingrong paused, and found that Mrs. Wu's expression was really stunned when she heard this, "But after all, they are brothers with the prince, and they both live in this Hou Mansion, and I heard that the size and pattern of the Feng Courtyard are very similar to the Yu Courtyard, how can this make people not think about comparison?" ”

Ignoring Mrs. Wu's more dignified face at this time, Lu Qingrong added: "If it's an ordinary family, I'm afraid the more noble you are, the more you care about these!" ”

This last sentence really speaks to Mrs. Wu's heart.

Recently, she discussed Jiang Ke's marriage, which really made her quite brainy.

The few that she liked before were directly rejected for various reasons, which made her very annoyed.

Could it be that your vision is really too high? Mrs. Wu had always been so suspicious before.

Until this moment, after listening to Lu Qingrong's words, his heart was a little shaken, could it really be because of the matter of Yuyuan that Jiang Ke was affected?

The more Mrs. Wu thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible.

The concubine room is not worth mentioning at all in the eyes of the noble family, but there must be rules and order. Before the wife gives birth to a son-in-law, there must be no mistakes. It has always been taboo to confuse concubines and concubines and kill wives. And the state of a group of maids like Yuyuan will undoubtedly make the probability of this happening higher.

Could it really be that Jiang Ke was affected because of this?

Mrs. Wu was completely moved by Lu Qingrong's words at this time.

"I don't think this matter has anything to do with Ke'er." Mrs. Wu grasped this point, but she had already compromised in her heart, "But since you think there are too many people, let's do it yourself!" ”

Seeing that Mrs. Wu finally relented, Lu Qingrong didn't say anything more.

Mrs. Wu didn't say anything to her anymore, and was about to send her away, when Jiang Xuan suddenly came to Qinyi Courtyard.

Jiang Xuan went to the study just now to finish practicing the remaining words, and when he went back, he heard that Lu Qingrong was called by Mrs. Wu, so he hurriedly followed him to Qinyi Courtyard.

Until he walked through the door of the flower hall, he didn't understand why he was so anxious. It was only when he saw Lu Qingrong standing there with a smile on his face and a calm demeanor that his heart suddenly calmed down.

Mrs. Wu was inevitably a little surprised when she saw Jiang Xuan suddenly appear, but she tried her best to control that she didn't come out.

"Why are you here?" Mrs. Wu asked calmly.

"Madame didn't look for me?" Jiang Xuan seemed puzzled, "I think the maid didn't make it clear, I thought you were looking for me too!" ”

Of course, Mrs. Wu didn't believe it, and saw Jiang Xuan walk in with a nervous expression, and only after seeing Lu Qingrong did she ease up...... If she believed him, she would have a ghost.

Jiang Xuan was very unimpressed, and his face had already regained his previous calmness, he just casually said a reason, it didn't matter if she didn't believe it.

"I'm just looking for your daughter-in-law to come and talk." Mrs. Wu said, "Now that the words are finished, you all go back!" ”

Jiang Xuan and Lu Qingrong were not polite to her, and left Qinyi Courtyard after saying goodbye directly.

And Mrs. Wu in the hall was still sitting there, motionless, as if she was pondering something in her heart.

Mother Lu, who was on the side, didn't bother and stayed there quietly.

"You say...... Shizi is attracted to her, right? Mrs. Wu asked suddenly.

"Possibly." Mother Lu hurriedly responded: "The prince looked a little anxious when he came in just now, which is indeed very different from the past. ”

Mrs. Wu smiled knowingly when she heard this: "It seems that I am really not busy in vain, he has finally opened his mind!" It's just that...... This Mrs. Shizi and Miss Lu Si in my impression are a little incompatible, so let's pay more attention in the future. ”

Mother Lu nodded yes, but she was a little puzzled: "Since you also want the prince and Mrs. Shizi to ...... Why did you have to embarrass her just now because of the maids' affairs? ”

Mrs. Wu sighed deeply and said, "Originally, as long as he could have some interest in women, whether it was Lu Qingrong or anyone else, it would be the same, and I didn't have to keep those maids." It's just that she just married into the house, so it's not good to make her arrogant too arrogant! ”

"That's what Madame said." Mother Lu followed Ying Hedao, but thought in her heart, then didn't you compromise in the end?

Mrs. Wu seemed to see through her thoughts, and then said: "Although I want to suppress her arrogance, I am not a person who is willful, if this affects Ke'er's family affairs and future, how can I make a difference?" ”

"Naturally, the second master's family affairs are important!" Mother Lu really felt it this time.

At the mention of this incident, Mrs. Wu couldn't hide her loss: "Originally, Princess Chengyang's side has always made me feel some hope, but I didn't expect that this time the county lord of Kangning would quietly put on the list of the prince's concubines!" ”

Mrs. Wu always thought that if she could help Jiang Keshun ask to marry the county lord of Kangning, then things would be much easier in the future.

Mother Lu was listening to it, this matter involves the princess, and I am afraid that she has some connection with the Queen Mother, and she really can't interject.

Mrs. Wu complained a few words alone, and then lost interest.

At this time, Jiang Xuan and Lu Qingrong, who had just come out of Qinyi Courtyard, walked side by side on the way back to Yuyuan.

Jiang Xuan was feeling a little unhappy about the inexplicable tension just now, he never thought that he was a person who was easily affected by others, and at this time, he only regarded the loss of control just now as a temporary loss, but he was still a little bored in his heart.

Lu Qingrong saw him rushing to the scene in a hurry, and he didn't say anything at Mrs. Wu's place, and at first he guessed that he came over because he was worried about himself, but seeing that he didn't say a word at the moment, he didn't want to ask.

In the end, Jiang Xuan became a little relieved after self-consolation, and asked Lu Qingrong: "What happened when Mrs. Wu came to you just now?" ”

"At first, Mrs. Wu was reluctant to let the maids of the Yuyuan out." Lu Qingrong said.

"At first? So in the end, she changed her attitude? ”

"Well, I was left to make up my own mind."

Jiang Xuan couldn't hide his surprise when he heard this, Mrs. Wu was not a good talker, he knew it, he didn't expect Lu Qingrong to have a way to make her compromise.

Lu Qingrong was not very proud, but was a little curious: "I just told them about this matter this morning, how can Mrs. Wu know about it in a blink of an eye?" Aren't you surprised at all? ”

"What's so strange about that? It would be strange if she didn't know!" Jiang Xuan said without thinking.

Although there is no positive answer, the meaning is self-evident.

Only then did Lu Qingrong have a new understanding of their situation. I just thought that those maids were sent to Yuyuan by Mrs. Wu, and they received the monthly money of Qinyi Courtyard, and it was not difficult to imagine that there were Mrs. Wu's eyes and ears in them, but I didn't expect the speed of this message to be so fast! And Mrs. Wu made it clear that she wanted to help them make the decision, if it weren't for the fact that she carried Jiang Ke out, I'm afraid that today's pass would be really sad.

In this case, it would naturally be best if you could take this opportunity to clear those eyes and ears out of the Yu Courtyard, but I am afraid that it will be a little difficult in such a short period of time, and how many people are delivering the news? One? Two? Or more people?

Lu Qingrong couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

And Jiang Xuan was still in a little depressed because of the out-of-control love just now, so he didn't speak.

The two of them walked back to the Yuyuan quietly.

Not long after entering the house, Qiu Lan walked in with a letter to Lu Qingrong.

Lu Qingrong's several wedding maids, Chunyu and Xia Yue are mainly responsible for the affairs of the inner room, such as the storage of jewelry, laundry and so on, while Qiulan and Dongxue are in charge of passing on food and other things that need to interact with the outside of Yuyuan.

Because Lu Qingrong cares so much about the privacy space, these people rarely appear in front of her on weekdays, and most of them, whether inside or outside, report to her through Luzhu.

And today, Luzhu was entangled by the maids in the morning, and this is the scene where Qiulan came in to deliver the letter.

Lu Qingrong frowned slightly when she saw this, Jiang Xuan was still in the house, why did she come in at this time.

And when she took the envelope in Qiulan's hand, a bad premonition arose.

The envelope was signed by Jiang Yunpei, which already surprised her. After all, since she married into the Hou Mansion, they have never communicated with each other, and Guining had just met yesterday, so why did she suddenly send a letter again today?

And what made her a little worried the most was that the envelope was unusually thick. RS
