And Jiang Xuan was sitting on the carriage at the moment, and the corners of his mouth still maintained an upturned arc.

Thinking of Lu Qingrong just now because he didn't want him to bring that handkerchief, he even agreed to the request to embroider two more for him, and he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.

Lu Qingrong doesn't matter, horizontal and vertical is at this level, and there is no big difference between how much embroidery there is.

"It's all your mother's family, are you afraid that they will laugh at you?" Jiang Xuan couldn't help but ask.

Lu Qingrong shook his head and did not speak.

Jiang Xuan didn't really wait for her to answer.

When he returned to Ning, he accompanied Lu Qingrong back to the Lu Mansion once, which made Jiang Xuan obviously feel that whether it was himself or Mrs. Wu, the previous impression of her "dragging oil bottle" was really not very appropriate, and it could even be said to be a little ridiculous. If Mrs. Lu Jiatai's pleasant face and the excessive enthusiasm of the second lady are all because of the signboard of the Marquis of Jingyuan, then the attitude of Lu Yiduo and his wife is obviously different from them. At the beginning, they had rejected the proposal of the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion, and Jiang Xuan also knew about it......

Lu Qingrong, who was sitting opposite Jiang Xuan, saw that his face was calm at the moment, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Today's family banquet should be similar to the day of Guining, right?" Jiang Xuan asked suddenly.

"Well, the Lu family doesn't have any relatives in the capital, since it is said to be a family banquet, it should be these people." Lu Qingrong thought for a while, "My uncle's family will come over too, and you heard my eldest brother say it yesterday." Lu Qingrong remembered that Yin Qinghua was not present on the day of Guining, "You haven't seen my uncle yet, have you?" ”

"You're talking about Lord Yin from the Hanlin Academy?" Jiang Xuan asked.

"Hmm." Lu Qingrong was a little curious, "Have you seen him?" ”

"Of course." Jiang Xuan recalled, "It was more than two years ago, right? At that time, he was studying in the palace with the second prince, and Lord Yin was also one of the Hanlin who taught, but he didn't come very often. ”

Lu Qingrong reacted at this time, in fact, she knew about Yin Qinghua going to the palace to teach and Jiang Xuan to accompany the second prince, but she didn't get in touch with them.

And then she suddenly thought of another thing.

"Do you know Mr. Chu too?" Lu Qingrong asked.

Jiang Xuan didn't expect her to ask about this, frowning slightly and looking a little hesitant.

"I heard my eldest brother talk about it by chance yesterday." Lu Qingrong explained: "I said that I met you at Mr. Chu's house. ”

"Yes." Jiang Xuan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "I heard that Mr. Chu's old illness had relapsed, and I went to visit one or two." ”

Lu Qingrong still looked at Jiang Xuan with an inquiring expression.

"Mr. Chu also went to the palace to give lectures to the second prince, don't you know?" Jiang Xuan asked rhetorically.

"Really? I don't know! Lu Qingrong couldn't hide his surprise, "I just heard that Mr. Chu was knowledgeable, and he was a protégé of Lord Ji and was deeply appreciated, but he didn't have a chance to enter the office because of his leg disease...... The rest were unheard. ”

Jiang Xuan was silent for a moment, and when he spoke again, his voice was much lower: "The second prince's homework, the saint has never asked too much, and the people who teach are all arranged by Ji Ming, the head of the cabinet, and your uncle must have been sent by him." ”

"How dare he arrange for someone from outside the Hanlin Academy to enter the palace to teach?" Lu Qingrong was still a little surprised.

"The emperor also knows about this, otherwise who would dare to be so bold." Jiang Xuan smiled, "And it is said that the emperor was also very sorry for Mr. Chu not being able to enter the office. ”

"Is Mr. Chu's leg disease so strict?" Lu Qingrong had seen him in the Yin Mansion before, and every time he was wearing a gray silk robe, he looked like a fairy with bones, and he didn't look like a person with leg disease.

"It's light and heavy!" Jiang Xuan said simply.

"It sounds very similar to your illness." Lu Qingrong blurted out, but he immediately realized his gaffe, and he was a little embarrassed.

"Hmm." Jiang Xuan didn't care, "It's true." ”

It just so happened that at this time, the carriage had already entered Jinglin Hutong and stopped in front of the Lu Mansion, and Lu Qingrong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Xuan got out of the car first, followed by Lu Qingrong.

As soon as she came, she noticed a black lacquered flat-headed carriage parked in front of the Lu Mansion, with the word "Song" hanging on it.

The Song family, which is so exaggerated in the capital, can only be the Chengping Marquis Mansion.

Lu Qingrong secretly wondered in his heart, isn't it a family banquet in the Lu Mansion today? Why did someone from the Chengping Marquis Mansion also come?

When Lu Qingrong followed Jiang Xuan into the Lu Mansion, he met the second lady of the Chengping Hou Mansion who was about to leave the mansion.

Wearing a rose and purple sprinkled flowered chickenheart collar gown, a lychee red dress, and the tassels of the red gold butterfly hairpin on the round bun between her hair swayed, as the distance between her and herself gradually narrowed, Lu Qingrong felt that the reflected sunlight was becoming more and more dazzling.

"Who am I? It turned out to be the Marquis of Jingyuan and Mrs. Shizi! The second lady of the Chengping Hou Mansion said loudly with a smile.

Lu Qingrong was extremely awkward when she heard this, she was also an elder, so this posture was really unbearable.

And Jiang Xuan next to him had long been accustomed to it, and greeted her very calmly and politely, but he didn't say too much greetings, and walked directly to the house.

Lu Qingrong hurriedly followed, secretly wondering in his heart, and he didn't know why this second lady appeared in the Lu Mansion today.

On weekdays, the female relatives of the Lu Mansion have some friendship with her, that is, the second aunt Geng's family, but it is nothing more than a little warmer when they meet, and they have no habit of visiting.

Recalling the previous few times the second lady of the Chengping Marquis Mansion came to the Lu Mansion, all for the purpose of proposing marriage, is this time no exception?

Lu Qingrong was thinking about it, when Jiang Xuan in front of him suddenly stopped.

"Let's come early today, why don't we go to the East Courtyard first?" Jiang Xuan mentions.

"It's fine." Lu Qingrong originally had this intention, "Father must be in the study at this time, you can go to him to play chess." ”

"What about you?"

"I'll go sit with my mother."

Jiang Xuan nodded, looking at her with a look of understanding in his eyes, which made Lu Qingrong avoid it with some weakness.

The two entered the east courtyard together, Jiang Xuan went to the study, and Lu Qingrong went straight to Yin Pingru, the main house.

Lu Qingrong actually didn't lie, no matter what the purpose of her coming to the East Courtyard was, she always had to go to her mother first.

Yin Pingru, who was in the main room, had already gotten the news, and was sitting in the house waiting for Lu Qingrong to land.

Yin Pingru wore a lilac embroidered orchid carved silk gown today, a lotus lotus-colored eight-piece skirt, her hair pulled up a fallen horse bun, and a parrot green jade carved hairpin was inserted diagonally, and the whole person looked refreshed.

"Mother!" As soon as Lu Qingrong came in, he found that she was obviously much more energetic today, "Father, the official reinstated, even you are several years younger!" ”

"You kid, you're all married, why are you even naughtier than ever!" Yin Pingru was a little embarrassed by her, and pretended to be angry: "You can't do this in the Hou Mansion, you didn't make the elders angry for no reason!" ”

Lu Qingrong naturally didn't take it seriously, but he also followed her words and said: "Where did the elders come from? As Yin Pingru sat on the Luohan bed in the main house, Lu Qingrong continued: "Master Hou has been recuperating in Jingchun Hall, and he usually doesn't let people visit, and he hasn't seen him since the day he confessed his relatives. Mrs. Wu doesn't need us to settle down in the morning and dusk, even if you want to make the elders angry, it's not easy! ”

Lu Qingrong's words were ridiculous, but what he said was the truth.

"It's your mother-in-law after all, she can save her mind without you in the morning and dusk, but you can't really just go and say goodbye!" Yin Pingru did not forget to instruct.

"Well, I know that." Lu Qingrong responded casually, and then asked, "As soon as we entered the mansion just now, we met the second lady of the Chengping Marquis Mansion, why did she come today?" ”

"Even if you come over to talk, it's nothing." Yin Pingru said vaguely.

Lu Qingrong didn't believe it very much, but when he saw that Yin Pingru didn't want to say more, he didn't get to the bottom of it.

The mother and daughter chatted for a long time, and the most they talked about was the reinstatement of Lu Yiduo this time.

The official document of the Ministry of Officials arrived yesterday, and Lu Yiduo will be officially reinstated in two days. As for why there was a turnaround so quickly this time, Yin Pingru was not very clear, and when he mentioned that the entire Lu Mansion was very surprised when he heard the news.

Recalling Jiang Xuan's unexpectedly calm look when he heard about this, Lu Qingrong felt a little strange more and more.

About half an hour later, Lu Qingrong came out of the main house and went to the Wisteria Pavilion to find Lu Qianyu.

Today, she thought about coming to the East Courtyard first, mainly to find Lu Qianyu.

When she received Jiang Ling's letter a few days ago, she couldn't make up her mind whether to return it to Lu Qianyu, and she also hesitated for a long time when she went out in the morning, and finally brought the letter out. Since Jiang Ling was completely bored with Lu Qianyu, it was better to let her die quickly, so that Yin Pingru would tell her about kissing her, but she refused directly.

"Why did you come here so early?" Lu Qianyu was a little surprised and a little happy when she saw her coming.

"It's not early, I've been sitting on my mother's side for a long time." Lu Qingrong looked around casually, "Are you alone?" ”

"Lotus leaves have gone to the pulp washing room to get clothes." Lu Qianyu said.

Lu Qingrong relieved himself, took out the letter, and handed it directly to Lu Qianyu.

The two envelopes that were on the outside Lu Qingrong had already put them away by himself, and the one in front of him was only the one that Lu Qianyu sent to Jiang Xuan.

When Lu Qianyu saw the letter, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and she was slightly surprised, but she didn't have the kind of shock that Lu Qingrong expected.

"Why are you here?" Lu Qianyu's tone was very flat, as if she was talking about today's weather.

"This letter has not been opened yet, you can find a proper place to deal with it yourself." Lu Qingrong didn't answer her question, and looked at her indifferent appearance, not like she was pretending, but a little worried, "You don't have to be too persistent, the so-called marriage is a matter of two people after all......"

"I know!" Lu Qianyu interrupted her words, and took the letter and threw it on the table beside her, "This is all in the past!" ”

"In the past?" Lu Qingrong blurted out, "What about now?" ”

She didn't know why she asked.

But Lu Qianyu's face suddenly turned slightly red, and she said with some twist: "I sue you, don't you say it......" RS
