Chapter 21: Anxiety
The messenger quickly walked into the flower hall.
"Uncle said in the letter that they have left for Beijing, where have they gone now? Are the children coming back too? Mrs. Lu asked.
"Mrs. Hui, the eldest young master, the eldest lady and the second lady also came back with the uncle, when the uncle asked the little one to deliver the letter, he had already traveled to the territory of Shuntian Mansion, and now it has been two days, I think it will be almost to the capital!"
Mrs. Lu smiled and said to everyone: "This is really can't help but chatter! Just now he said that he couldn't go home for the Chinese New Year, and he is coming back soon! ”
Mrs. Lu rewarded the little guy with a tael of silver and let him go down to rest.
When Gu heard that Lu Yiduo was coming back soon, he said to Mrs. Lu with some hesitation: "Uncle is coming back, will we disturb Uncle if we live in the East Courtyard like this?" ”
"It's okay! Every time they came back, the children stayed with me in the main courtyard, and he could use as much space as he could alone! What's more, your small courtyard can't even account for three points of the east courtyard! ”
Mrs. Lu felt that the Gu family was really worried.
Gu Shi listened to Mrs. Lu's words and didn't say anything more.
And when they had eaten their supper they went about their places.
As soon as Lu Yizhong and Geng returned to the West Courtyard, they talked to Geng about Sister Man'er today.
"Sister Man'er is really rude today, I think you usually have to discipline her more!" Lu Yizhong felt that he had lost face in front of the Yin family just now.
"Mother didn't say anything, you're still holding on here!" Geng's mouth was stiff.
"I see that my mother can't discipline her as ruthlessly as you, so why don't we go and invite a nurturing grandmother?" Lu Yizhong has long heard that the women who are raised by their grandmothers are all beautiful women, and when they discuss marriage in the future, they are also the objects of competition between famous families.
Gu had also heard the methods of raising his grandmother, and he didn't want his daughter to suffer, so he didn't say anything, and only said to Lu Yizhong, "Think about it", and then diverted the topic.
"What did you say about your mother's heart, seeing that the eldest brother was about to come back, she also let the Yin family live in the East Courtyard. Others will just do it, the woman who has been separated lives in the East Courtyard, and when the time comes, this melon field will be under the ......."
When Geng thought of Yin Pingru's bright face, he felt awkward.
"What nonsense are you talking about, the sister of the Yin family is not this kind of person!" Lu Yizhong felt that Geng's words were a bit excessive.
"Yo, I don't know, when will you have such a sister!" Seeing Lu Yizhong's attitude, Geng's heart was even more resentful, "No matter how you say it, you are a person who is divorced, how can it be the same as an ordinary woman!" I heard from the people of the Qiu family that she took the initiative to bring this and leave! ”
"How many times have you been mentioned, why are you still getting involved with the people of the Qiu family!" Lu Yizhong was very displeased.
Geng pursed his lips, but finally didn't make another sound.
At this time, in the south courtyard of the East Courtyard, Yin Qinghua and Yin Pingru were talking, and Gu was coaxing the two children on the side.
This is the first time that the brother and sister have talked face-to-face since Yin Pingru and Li.
"What He Kai did was simply ridiculous. Now that you have seen that he is not a good person, don't think about it anymore when he leaves. Yin Qinghua's tone was very firm, "Now you will follow me and your sister-in-law in a down-to-earth manner, no matter whether you remarry in the future or not, you must be cautious." ”
When Yin Pingru heard her eldest brother say this, her eyes were a little moist uncontrollably.
She knew in her heart that the whole of Daqi followed the way of the husband as the wife, but any woman who divorced, whether it was right or wrong, was a shameful thing for her mother's family.
When her sister-in-law said that she would take her to the capital, she was already very grateful.
Yin Qinghua continued: "Whether I want to stay in Beijing or release this time has not yet been decided, and you will follow me and your sister-in-law." You don't have to worry about other things, just take care of your appearance. ”
"yes, I see." Yin Pingru felt that the feeling of hesitation that had been haunting her heart these days suddenly dissipated a lot.
Seeing that it was getting late, Yin Pingru planned to take Lu Qingrong back to their room, but she didn't expect Lu Qingrong to look like she was having fun with Yin Zihao, so she refused to leave.
Lu Qingrong kept thinking about Gu's preoccupied appearance when she was having dinner in the flower hall just now, and she was not sure if she didn't figure it out.
"Let's let the two kids play a little longer." Gu Shi said to Yin Pingru: "It just so happens that your luggage has not been placed yet, you go back and pack it up first, and then let Tinglan come and pick her up." ”
When Yin Pingru heard this, he left first, leaving Lu Qingrong here with the Gu family.
Gu really had something to say to Yin Qinghua, although the two of them entered the inner room, Lu Qingrong could still hear it clearly.
"The uncle of the Lu family is about to come back, and I always feel that we live here like this, I'm afraid it's not good for Pingru. Do you think we should hurry up and find a house in the capital first? Gu Shi said thoughtfully.
"Are you still thinking about the Lu family's kiss? That was three years ago! What's more, the mother handled it neatly at that time, and Mrs. Lu should have let it go a long time ago! Yin Qinghua was quite unimpressed.
"What does Mrs. Lu think, let's not say it for the time being, then the uncle of the Lu family has not remarried yet!" Gu felt that Yin Qinghua was thinking a little simply.
"This ......" Yin Qinghua hesitated for a moment, and soon returned to normal, "Brother Lu's personality, you can rest assured, he will never do anything that makes Pingru or us embarrassed." ”
Gu Shi saw that Yin Qinghua never understood what she meant, and couldn't help but be a little anxious.
"You've known him since childhood, and of course you know him better than I do. But it doesn't really have much to do with who he is. Think about it, after all, Pingru has a special identity now, and if something unpleasant is rumored to come out, whether it is true or not, she will suffer. ”
Gu continued: "Actually, if Pingru and the Lu family uncle can really ...... I think it's a good result. But in any case, you can't spread rumors without a word......"
Yin Qinghua didn't answer again, but seriously considered the matter.
Lu Qingrong heard that the inner room fell into silence, but her heart was a little uncalm at this time.
It turned out that my aunt was worried that Lu Yiduo had not remarried all these years because she had thoughts about her mother......
Will my aunt's fears happen?
What kind of person is this Lu Yiduo?
Lu Qingrong couldn't help but see He Kai's unsympathetic face in front of him, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
Lu Qingrong was very afraid that Yin Pingru would meet someone unladylike again, and he was a little apprehensive in his heart, and at the same time he was a little helpless because he was too young to help his mother.
Until Tinglan picked up Lu Qingrong and returned to Yin Pingru, she still couldn't stop thinking crankily, and she didn't sleep well all night.
The next morning, Yin Pingru came together, and found that Lu Qingrong's little face was very haggard, and dark circles could be faintly seen.
Yin Pingru was wondering in her heart, Mrs. Lu sent a maid to invite them to the main courtyard.
"Mrs. Yin, our lady invites you to go over with Uncle Yin, our uncle returned to the capital early this morning, and he has already entered the mansion at this moment!"
Yin Pingru heard that Lu Yiduo was back, so she asked Tinglan to take Lu Qingrong and go to the main courtyard with her.
Lu Qingrong sighed in his heart all the way, how could he arrive so soon!
When they stepped into the main courtyard again, the atmosphere in the flower hall was a little more lively than yesterday.
Mrs. Lu and Lu Yizhong were there, and Yin Qinghua and Gu also arrived one step ahead of them.
As soon as Yin Pingru entered the door, he greeted everyone in the house first.
And Lu Qingrong looked directly at Lu Yiduo beside Mrs. Lu.
After seeing Lu Yiduo's face clearly, Lu Qingrong couldn't help but be stunned and couldn't move.
