The autumn days of the Eastern Yuan Kingdom are known as the "Autumn Tigers".

The sun is still shining in the daytime, and the maple leaves are red all over the city, which looks a little hotter.

But at night, it's still cool very quickly.

It's autumn, and it's very different from summer.

Lu Ruifeng, the wife of the Marquis of Changxing, wore a snow-white hat and held a long pair of flower scissors in her hand, and she was tidying up the chrysanthemums in the chrysanthemum garden in her small garden.

The beautiful chrysanthemums are in full swing in the chrysanthemum garden, and the green peony, the fire phoenix volley, the mandarin duck lotus, and the amber remnant sun are the flowers of the four major town gardens, and Lu Ruifeng sees it more valuable than his own eyeballs.

Lu Ruifeng's maid carried a flower basket behind her, smiling and playing: "Madam, your green peony is praised by the queen's mother." The pot of green jade fairy you inserted last day is to use this green peony as the main flower, so that the Hou Ye will dedicate it to the palace to congratulate the queen mother on her birthday, and the queen mother is full of praise and gives you a lot of rewards! ”

Queen Qi Xueyun was full of praise, not only the flower arrangement of the pot of green jade fairy, but also Murong Changqing's family affairs, and praised her for her insight and good family affairs for Murong Changqing, and specially asked Lu Ruifeng when she planned to marry Murong Changqing, and she would come to drink a glass of wedding wine at that time......

As soon as he thought of this, the smile on Lu Ruifeng's face remained unchanged, but the flower scissors in his hand were uncontrollable, and after a few clicks of the scissors, all the green peonies were lost at the edge of the knife, and they were cut to pieces, and the jade-white and verdant petals fluttered down and sprinkled all over the ground.

The maid was taken aback, so frightened that she didn't dare to speak anymore, and hurriedly put down the flower basket. Get down on your knees and sweep the petals that have been chopped.

This chrysanthemum flower is huge, very similar to the flower type of peony, but the petals are not as many layers as peony. The outer layer of white jade, the more to the inner layer of the flower, those slender petals gradually turn green, verdant, like green jade, so although it is a chrysanthemum, it is called "green peony" by the world.

Green peonies are very squeamish. Ordinary people can't raise it.

Lu Ruifeng's hard work in this life has been on these flowers and plants, and he has raised many famous flowers.

She also loves ikebana, flower arrangement or elegance. Or luxurious, it is also a must in the Eastern Yuan Kingdom.

And her identity is more noble than that of ordinary florists, and the flowers she arranges can't be bought with silver outside.

Therefore, the queen mother is a thousand years old. The Changxing Hou Mansion presented the "Green Jade Fairy" served by Mrs. Hou herself. won the queen's mother's phoenix face and gave a lot of rewards to Mrs. Changxinghou, including a set of green jade head jewelry, which is even more luxurious.

Lu Ruifeng thought of the set of green jade heads, and the roots of his teeth were about to clench.

She threw the shears to the ground with a snap, turned and went into the house to wash her hands.

"Madam, Mrs. Shen from Situ Mansion sent a post, saying that I haven't seen you for a long time. I want to visit and meet my wife. "The mother-in-law on the second gate got the news from the steward of the outer court. Hurried to report the news.

Whether the Situ family is coming or posting, they don't dare to slack off.

The maiden family of the future Mrs. Shizi, how many heads do they dare not to put in their eyes?

Even if the Situ family is a businessman, Mrs. Situ Shen is the daughter of Prime Minister Shen, and she is not dead now......

A living prime minister's daughter-in-law, of course, has a much higher status than the deceased prime minister's daughter-in-law.

Lu Ruifeng just washed his hands, wiped his hands with a soft silk, and said without raising his head: "Didn't you give a gift?" Why do you want to see you? ”

Shen Yongjie's osmanthus banquet, Lu Ruifeng did not plan to participate.

Because of the queen's Qianqiu Festival, Yan zhòng affected Lu Ruifeng's mood, and she didn't have the heart to perfunctory Shen Yongjie, so she only sent a steward to give gifts and rejected Shen Yongjie's invitation.

I didn't expect Shen Yongjie to be reluctant and have to come to the door......

A sarcastic smile appeared on Lu Ruifeng's face, and he quickly calmed the corners of his lips, took the mouthwash tea from the maid's hand and took a sip, and then spit it into the small copper bowl that the other maid held.

"The person who sent the post only said that Mrs. Shen missed Mrs. Shen very much, and said that he wanted to come to the door to talk about it." The woman bowed her head and stood erect in front of the door of the main house.

Lu Ruifeng chuckled, thought for a while, and said, "Then ask her to come over and talk." As he spoke, he stood up and walked to the flower room that he used for flower arrangement.

The other maids and mothers-in-law all stayed outside to serve, and only one of the companions she brought in, Mrs. Lu, followed in.

"Madam, do you really want to see Madame Shen?"

"Do you think I can get out of the way? Tsk, people really can't make mistakes. You see, she was the daughter of the Shen family back then, and her father was still the prime minister. Although I am also the daughter of the Sanhou and Wuxiang families, my father is not the deputy prime minister, and he is far worse than her. And now? Lu Ruifeng shook his head, "Let me tell you, where does she miss me?" She thinks about the power of our Hou Mansion. It is said that she is also a miserable fate, a dignified prime minister's daughter, but she can only marry a businessman who is full of copper stench. Not to mention marrying a businessman, he gave birth to a child early in the morning and almost died. In the past ten years, she has not had a good time outside......"

"You mean, she came to the Hou Mansion to urge the prince to marry her daughter?" Mrs. Lu blinked, asked quietly, put on a soft silk cloak for Lu Ruifeng, and said, "It's hot outside, it's already cold in the house, Madame be careful of catching a cold." ”

Lu Ruifeng glanced at her with a smile, leaned down on the chaise longue with his cloak, picked up a bowl of crystal osmanthus lotus root powder and ate it slowly, and said, "Alas, people are really not as good as heaven." When her father married her to the one-eyed businessman, I haven't been sorry for her for a long time, and I've always sympathized with her......"

"Madame Bodhisattva, of course I can't see Mrs. Shen in trouble." Mrs. Lu said earnestly, knelt down half-way, and took the beauty to beat Lu Ruifeng's legs.

Everyone in the world thinks that Lu Ruifeng, the wife of the Marquis of Changxing, gave her son, Murong Changqing, the sister-in-law and son of the Marquis of Changxing, to set Shen Yongjie's daughter because she cared about the affection between the two of them at the beginning, so she insisted on marrying regardless of the disparity between the two families.

And Lu Ruifeng decided to do this family business at the beginning, but at the beginning, it was indeed because he felt sorry for his best friend Shen Yongjie and wanted to help her.

She doesn't have many friends, and Shen Yongjie is one of the few.

So when Shen Yongjie gave birth to a daughter for the first time, Lu Ruifeng immediately decided to set a baby kiss for his three-year-old son Murong Changqing.

At that time, Murong Chen, the Marquis of Changxing, vigorously opposed it. But Lu Ruifeng insisted, and then Murong Chen somehow agreed.

As soon as this family affair was brought up. Of course, the Situ family couldn't ask for it.

Changxing Marquis Murong Chen was very unhappy at that time, but even Prime Minister Shen Dacheng and the Empress Mother strongly agreed, so he didn't dare to object.

Prime Minister Shen Dacheng agreed with this marriage, and Murong Chen was not surprised.

But even Queen Qi Xueyun agreed, and Murong Chen was very strange.

He once tried to ask the queen the reason, but the queen just said that they were already sorry for Lu Ruifeng. Why bother with her in Changqing's marriage? Anyway, it's not about marrying a daughter, it's about marrying a daughter-in-law, no matter how bad the girl is. When you marry the Hou Mansion, you don't want to adjust how you want, so you can adjust it? Let him not worry, and say that Murong Changqing has this kind of background. It's not much worse than the crown prince. Where does he need a strong wife to help him?

said a lot of reasons, Murong Chen was skeptical, but he also knew that if Qi Xueyun didn't want to say anything, even if it was a dream, she wouldn't say it.

The woman's mouth was tighter than a mussel shell.

It's a pity that such a family affair, with the passage of time, slowly changed in Lu Ruifeng's heart.

Change your mind at first. It was when she learned who Murong Changqing's biological mother was......

The person she hated the most in her life was Queen Qi Xueyun, but this kind of hatred. But it can only be hidden in the heart forever, and it must not be known to others.

After a long time, the hatred was fermented, as thick as wine, but not good wine, but as sour as old vinegar.

Recently, at the Qianqiu banquet of Queen Qi Xueyun, he found that the queen was actually happy to see this marriage come to fruition, and she was very happy, and Lu Ruifeng felt even more uncomfortable.

Anything that can make Empress Qi Xueyun happy will make Lu Ruifeng feel the urge to kill......

Lu Ruifeng was crooked on the chaise longue for a while, and suddenly felt that he was too stupid.

If she didn't guess wrong, Shen Yongjie must have come to talk about marriage.

It's not easy to get married, isn't it easy to destroy one?

In the past, if she wanted to withdraw from the marriage, it was really difficult to quit.

Because Shen Yongjie "died" before, the family affairs she set before her death will be withdrawn after her death, which inevitably makes people say that she tends to be inflammatory, unapproachable, and has a bad reputation.

And what Lu Ruifeng cares about the most, in addition to her flowers and plants, is her reputation for being virtuous and generous, righteous and benevolent......

But now that Shen Yongjie is not dead, if something happens and the other party takes the initiative to withdraw from her family, it is no wonder that she is no wonder, right?

When I think of the queen's angry face after the resignation, it is really happy!

The more Lu Ruifeng thought about it, the happier he became, sat up straight from the chaise longue, and asked first, "Is the prince at home?" ”

"Yes, I'm practicing riding and archery on the school grounds."

Lu Ruifeng nodded: "Prepare eight kinds of dim sum side dishes, warm two pots of chrysanthemum sake, I want to have two glasses with Mrs. Shen." ”

……

Shen Yongjie quickly received Lu Ruifeng's reply this time, saying that she had prepared wine and food, and when she came to the house, she said that she hadn't seen her for many years, and she really thought about it, but she was busy with family affairs, and she couldn't get out of the osmanthus banquet for a while, hoping that she would forgive Yunyun.

Shen Yongjie finished reading Lu Ruifeng's letter with an expressionless face, sighed softly, and put the letter on the dressing table.

She was a famous talented woman back then, and although Lu Ruifeng tried her best to hide this thought, she still expressed it in her letter.

If you haven't seen her for many years and really miss her, how can she have been back to Beijing for two months and hasn't been here once? Even such a handwritten letter was sent for the first time.

also said that he was busy at home, and it was even more of a joke if he couldn't get away from the banquet.

The Changxing Marquis Mansion is not a common people's house, so the housewife needs to take care of the housework at home and prepare three meals a day?

said that you can't get rid of yourself, but it's actually because you don't have enough weight, and people don't take you to heart.

If it is someone else's house, such as Shen Xiang's house, Lu Ruifeng is impossible not to go unless he is too sick to get out of bed.

Shen Yongjie didn't expect that this handkerchief hand back then would also use such a scheming on her now, and her face was a little unsightly.

Situ Yingsleeve came over to see her, and saw that Shen Yongjie's face was not very good, so she hurriedly asked, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" Who you off? Isn't it Aunt Zhang? ”

Shen Yongjie shook her head, "No, it has nothing to do with her." As he spoke, he shook Situ Ying's hand and looked at her with a smile, "You go and see your brother." I'm going to go out. ”

"Where is my mother going?" Situ Yingsleeve asked nervously. "Do you want to take me with you?"

"I'm going to the Changxing Marquis Mansion, and you're going too?" Shen Yongjie smiled and winked at her, "Changqing doesn't know if she's in the mansion......"

Situ Yingsleeve's face turned red. Stamped his feet without disobedience, "Mother! What do you mean by that? What does he have to do with me when he's not in the house? So saying, he ran out.

In the end, the girl is older and knows that she is shy.

Shen Yongjie looked at Situ Ying's back and smiled slightly.

Anyway, no matter what Lu Ruifeng is, Murong Changqing still looks like a good child, and it's good for Yingsleeve. Caring for you, please come to the door every time. I have to ask Situ Yingsleeve what he is doing.

Although Shen Yongjie didn't see Murong Changqing, Mama Shen, who helped her housekeeper, told her about these things.

"Someone, prepare the car. Go to the Changxing Marquis Mansion. Shen Yongjie commanded. While going behind the screen, I changed into clothes to go out, and took the car of Situ Mansion to Changxing Marquis Mansion.

……

Lu Ruifeng didn't wait long, just waited for Shen Yongjie.

"Yongjie, long time no see, have you taken care of your body?" Although Lu Ruifeng never went to see Shen Yongjie, as soon as he saw her this time, he stepped forward to greet her very warmly. It's just like the previous snub was Shen Yongjie's own care.

Shen Yongjie also smiled and held Lu Ruifeng's hand and walked into the upper room with her.

To show affection. Lu Ruifeng took Shen Yongjie to the east room where she sat at her daily living banquet.

The two sat on the chaise longue couch and carved the ebony begonia on both sides.

On the low table were eight plates of dried fruits and side dishes, as well as two bottles of wine.

"Come on, I remember you had a good amount of wine." Lu Ruifeng poured wine for Shen Yongjie with his own hands, "Try the chrysanthemum sake I brewed." ”

As soon as the wine was poured out, it was fragrant, and when I smelled it, I got drunk.

The expression on Shen Yongjie's face was a little more relaxed.

She picked up the wine glass, took a sip lightly, ate a few bites of side dishes, and exchanged a few words of greeting with Lu Ruifeng before getting to the point: "Ruifeng, since I am here today, I will not say dark words." I want to ask you, next year, after the sleeves and the flute, when should we set the wedding date? ”

Lu Ruifeng looked a little surprised, and said very embarrassedly: "Yongjie, let's talk about the old days today, what are you doing with these words?" Come, have another drink......" poured another glass of wine for Shen Yongjie.

Shen Yongjie didn't drink anymore, just looked at Lu Ruifeng with a calm face, and said lightly: "I know that in our Dongyuan Kingdom, the female family took the initiative to talk about family affairs, and it was upside down on the pole, which is indeed a little shameless." But for me, my daughter's lifelong happiness is more important than face. Just give me a sentence, what do you want to do with this family matter? ”

Back then, they had passed three books and six ceremonies, and it was a real family affair, not just an oral marriage contract that only exchanged tokens.

Lu Ruifeng coughed lightly, and had to smile and said: "Yongjie, we are married, of course we want to get married, but I can't be the master of this kind of thing like marriage, and I have to wait for the Hou Ye to come back before making a decision......"

Shen Yongjie secretly breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on her face, leaned her neck and ate a glass of wine, and said, "I know Ruifeng, you are not that kind of person, otherwise you wouldn't be married to us." Don't worry, don't underestimate our sleeve background, she will never humiliate Changqing. ”

"Well, I believe that. I'm afraid that Evergreen will insult your family. Lu Ruifeng muttered with a smile, but there was no smile in his eyes.

Shen Yongjie looked up in amazement, "What?" What did you just say? ”

Lu Ruifeng had already lowered his head, clipped her with a chopsticks and a golden jade lotus clip, and said with a smile: "I'm joking, you are still serious!" - Here, this is your favorite dish since you were a child. ”

Shen Yongjie ate the golden jade lotus root clip, chattering about the new house and furniture, and asked Lu Ruifeng when the new house would be set, and they would measure the size of the furniture.

Now I start to make furniture, and it will be almost the same by the time I get married next year.

Lu Ruifeng said with a smile: "I have thought about the new house, just build a new courtyard next to the courtyard where Changqing lives now, and merge his current yard into it as a cross-courtyard." ”

In this way, that place is really not small.

The smile on Shen Yongjie's face was a little more, and she said earnestly: "Won't it be too big?" ”

"It's not big, it's not big, there will be many people in the future, and I can live there." Lu Ruifeng said with a smile, and asked Shen Yongjie again: "By the way, why can't your second lady come out recently?" I sent her several posts asking her to come and talk to me, and she said she couldn't go out. Yongjie, I didn't say you, you can't be too strong. Miss Situ Er was originally a serious concubine, because of you, she was born and became a concubine, and she has already suffered a lot, and you still treat her harshly, if this word spreads, your reputation will be very bad. ”

Shen Yongjie frowned slightly, and said, "Ruifeng, are you still so good at those false names?" ”

"It's not a name." Lu Ruifeng sighed, "If you live for a lifetime, don't you just look at yourself as someone else?" If everyone looks down on you and chews your tongue behind your back, what's the fun of living? Besides, you have already got a qiē back, it is better to be generous, and raise Miss Situ Er under your name, and others will also think highly of Ying Sleeve. ”

Shen Yongjie couldn't listen to it at this moment, put down her chopsticks, stared at Lu Ruifeng, and said calmly: "Tell me, I raised Fan Chunyun as a concubine, why do others think highly of Yingsleeve?" ――I really don't understand this reasoning. ”

"Who is Fan Chunyun? I said, Miss Situ Er, where are you going? Lu Ruifeng asked puzzledly, wiping his mouth with a handkerchief.

"Hehe, you don't even know who Fan Chunyun is, but you came to help Miss Situ Er talk about Xiang, and you want me to raise her under her name as a concubine. - Ruifeng, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd? Shen Yongjie said with a smile, the light in her eyes was already sharp.

Lu Ruifeng blinked, put down the veil and said, "What do you say?" I really don't know who Fan Chunyun is. Let's go back to Miss Situ Er. If you think about it, a woman's worst reputation is that she is unfilial and the other is jealousy. If you keep Miss Situ Er in your name and regard it as your own, people will know that you are virtuous and virtuous, and Yingsleeve, as your own daughter, will naturally get the most light. ”

"It turns out that this is how the reputation of virtuous and virtuous people comes from, Ruifeng, please forgive me for not being able to do it." Shen Yongjie stood up and said, "Fan Chunyun is the daughter of Aunt Zhang and the man in front of her, and she is the second Miss Situ that you will never forget." has already given her the surname of the Situ family, and she is still not satisfied? Do you want to be a concubine? Ruifeng, which way are your elbows turning? ”
