Chapter 133: Letters
Jiang Xuan said and handed Yin Pingru's reply to Lu Qingrong.
Lu Qingrong hurriedly took it, and was hesitating to open it in front of Jiang Xuan.
"I went to Qinyi Courtyard just now, there's nothing going on over there, right?" Jiang Xuan asked.
"Mrs. Wu heard that you went to the study in the middle of the night last night, and I was afraid that you would catch a cold, so I asked me to pay attention to your body." Lu Qingrong somehow said this first.
"She found you yesterday, and then she knew I was going to the study in the middle of the night?" Jiang Xuan was a little baffled.
"I also said that I was young and I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to take care of you, so I mentioned that I wanted to help you collect the house." Lu Qingrong turned his heart aside, but fortunately said directly: "I said that there is no suitable candidate yet, and I can't settle down for a while...... Take a look for yourself, and if you have something you like, tell me! β
After Lu Qingrong finished speaking, he took Yin Pingru's reply, turned around and lifted the curtain and entered the room.
Jiang Xuan was left looking at her departing back in a daze, and an indescribable feeling suddenly appeared in his heart.
Since Lu Qingrong married into the Hou Mansion, the conversation between the two of them has always been relaxed and natural, and it can even be said that there is an inexplicable sense of closeness.
Although Lu Qingrong's words seemed casual just now, this was the first time I heard that obviously a somewhat distant tone from her mouth.
Jiang Xuan was inevitably a little dazed.
After a while, Jiang Xuan shook his head slightly, and secretly said in his heart, why did he suddenly get up from his mother-in-law.
remembered that as soon as she woke up in the morning, she didn't care about eating, so she came over with a reply from Lu Fu and waited for her. I don't know if I'm in a hurry to deliver the letter, or I'm worried about what will happen to her when she goes to Qinyi Hospital......
Seeing that it was now approaching the end of the day, and he hadn't written a word in the morning, Jiang Xuan hurriedly turned around and went to the study.
Before going out, he didn't forget to tell sΓΉ green bamboo, and he would come back for lunch.
Green bamboo got this order, and the tension of the morning was relieved.
By the time it was time to eat at noon, Lu Qingrong's mood had obviously changed a lot.
Just thinking of the embarrassment he encountered last night and the gaffe in front of Jiang Xuan in the morning, Lu Qingrong was still embarrassed to take the initiative to say something.
It was Jiang Xuan who spoke first.
"Didn't you want to continue studying before, these days I talked to Mr. Zhen in the Yanguo Mansion Girls' School, and she agreed to come to the mansion to teach you individually."
"Really?" Lu Qingrong has almost forgotten about this matter these days, and at this time, he was naturally very happy to hear that Mr. Zhen had actually responded.
"Invite her to the house in two days, and you can discuss the specific time yourself!" Jiang Xuan's voice also became brisk.
"There's nothing wrong with that, right?" Lu Qingrong was a little worried, now in the Great Qi Dynasty, which believes that "a woman is virtuous if she is not talented", there are not many women who have already married and still want to study.
"After all, it's a female gentleman, and it's fine." Jiang Xuan disagreed, "And even in the Hou Mansion, it is in the name of teaching piano skills, so it doesn't matter." β
Lu Qingrong relieved his heart and nodded excitedly.
"But ......," Jiang Xuan added, "Since you are talking about teaching piano skills, you have to really grow somewhat!" β
Looking at the smiling expression on Jiang Xuan's face, Lu Qingrong was a little embarrassed.
Lu Qingrong put a pine snow piano in the inner room, because he knew that his skills were rough, he didn't want to be ugly in front of Jiang Xuan, Jiang Xuan happened to come in when he was practicing in the room that day, and happened to hear her most rusty song "Guangling San", which was the joke just now.
Lu Qingrong wanted to explain that the song was really difficult...... But in the final analysis, I haven't practiced enough, and then I remember that Jiang Xuan once mentioned that the second prince has a soft spot for collecting guqin, presumably he also listened to the superb skills of many pianists in the palace back then, right?
Thinking of this, Lu Qingrong did not plan to continue to dwell on this topic.
What's more, the fact that Mr. Zhen can come to the Hou Mansion to give her a lecture really makes her very happy, so she won't care about these things.
"I've read my mother's letter in the morning." Lu Qingrong suddenly felt that he should be informed.
"Done inquiring so soon?" Jiang Xuan asked along with her.
"There's no need to ask." Lu Qingrong didn't expect it before, "My mother had already heard of that Song Shixiang's reputation, and the letter told me not to worry, saying that when the second lady of the Chengping Houfu came to the door for the first time, she directly found a fortune-telling and other reasons to refuse, so the second lady would come to the door again and again to persuade her." β
"That's fine." Jiang Xuan said directly: "The Chengping Marquis Mansion is now sitting and eating empty from top to bottom, even if it doesn't matter what Song Shixiang's personality is, it is not a good idea to marry them." β
Lu Qingrong was slightly stunned, and he didn't understand the meaning of Jiang Xuan's words, "No matter what Song Shixiang is", but he didn't delve into it.
In any case, this family business did not succeed, but she still felt happy for Lu Qianyu in her heart.
"No wonder my mother didn't ask the second sister's opinion, it turned out that she didn't plan to agree at all!" Lu Qingrong's words were a little close to talking to himself.
Jiang Xuan could hear it clearly.
"Will your mother ask your opinion on your sisters' relatives?"
"Huh?" Lu Qingrong was a little stunned by his question, and suddenly found that no matter what he said, it seemed a little awkward, so he simply didn't respond positively: "When someone comes to propose marriage, they will always tell us what we know!" β
The corners of Jiang Xuan's mouth curled slightly, and he didn't ask any more, but suddenly remembered something again: "Although your mother already has an idea, she must be able to convince your second sister!" β
Lu Qingrong was stunned, she didn't seem to tell Jiang Xuan about Lu Qianyu's willingness to do something before, and when she heard him say this, she couldn't help but be surprised: "What does this mean?" β
"I'm just casually reminding you." Jiang Xuan was a little hesitant at this time, but finally said: "That Song Shixiang has some ways to deal with women, if he starts to do it seriously...... After all, your second sister has lived in the boudoir for a long time, and she may not be his opponent! β
"Is it so strict?" Lu Qingrong asked with a frown.
"There is no best." Jiang Xuan himself was not sure.
After the two of them had lunch, Lu Qingrong didn't take this matter to heart anymore.
Yin Pingru has already rejected this family business, not to mention that Lu Qianyu and Song Shixiang only have a one-sided relationship, I think Lu Qianyu has been obsessed with Jiang Ling for so many years, and finally let it go easily? How much ability can this Song Shixiang have that she will never forget it once she has seen it for the rest of her life?
At this time, Lu Qingrong didn't know that Song Shixiang really had such a great ability.
In the blink of an eye, a few months passed, and the autumn weather was slightly cooler again.
Lu Qingrong's first summer in the Marquis of Jingyuan's Mansion was spent so plainly.
In the past few months, Marquis Jingyuan is still recuperating behind closed doors in Jingchun Hall, and is taken care of by two aunts on weekdays, rarely letting others in and out.
And Qinyi Courtyard was also surprisingly quiet, and everything was peaceful, which Lu Qingrong didn't expect.
Since the wedding of the second prince is imminent, before this, the matter of the prince's choice of concubine may not be conclusive. Therefore, Mrs. Wu, who had been thinking about marrying Princess Chengyang's mansion, was still waiting for the news of whether the county lord of Kangning could be elected, and Jiang Ke's marriage was naturally delayed.
During this period, Mrs. Wu never wanted to cause trouble, so she had Lu Qingrong's rare purity in the past few months.
And Lu Qingrong and Jiang Xuan get along with each other, needless to say, they are familiar with each other, but there is no substantial change from the days when they first got married.
At night, he still slept in two separate rooms through the screen, and with the embarrassing experience last time, Lu Qingrong became extra careful when talking at night.
During the day, the two of them still do their own thing.
Lu Qingrong followed Mr. Zhen to read and play the piano, which made her often have the illusion that she was still the carefree fourth lady in the Lu Mansion. The big and small affairs in the Yu Courtyard are all handled by Mother Ye and Lu Zhu, and Mother Cao and Cai Lian and Cai Mei are a few of them, I don't know if it is because there is no movement on the side of Qinyi Courtyard, they are also very peaceful, and basically do not have to worry about Lu Qingrong.
And the only thing that made her feel at ease was Jiang Xuan.
Jiang Xuan often went out all day, and occasionally didn't return at night.
If you ask where he is, you just get some words like "go out and go around", which makes people worry.
Especially in these days, Jiang Xuan has fainted two or three times, and every time he gets sick, he is in front of everyone in the Hou Mansion, and he is carried back to the Yu Courtyard to drink the prescription of the Taiyi's awakening soup to recover as before.
At the beginning, Lu Qingrong was really scared enough, and then one of them got used to it, and the other also heard from the people in Yuyuan that the number of episodes of the prince is significantly less than before, and there are gradually people in the house who are talking about the fact that the wife married in Chongxi played a role......
Thinking of Jiang Xuan's fainting on the night they got married, it was obvious that he had recovered before drinking that awakening soup...... Lu Qingrong couldn't help but start to feel a little strange about his fainting that came and went freely, but he didn't have a clue for a while.
Speaking of the Lu family, Lu Yiduo has been back in the military department for some time, and in the past few months, the Lu family has also done a happy event, after Lu Chengjie's master Mr. Chu protected the media, the Lu family married Lu Chengjie's daughter of Lord Fan of Wanping Zhi County, Shuntian Mansion. Although Lord Fan's official position is not high, the Fan family is a veritable scholarly family.
On the day Lu Chengjie got married, Lu Qingrong also saw this sister-in-law, but she felt that she was dignified and elegant, and everyone was full of beauty.
And since the last time she wrote a letter to Yin Pingru for Lu Qianyu's family affairs, the mother and daughter have often exchanged letters.
On this day, Jiang Xuan returned to the inner room at night and brought her another letter from Yin Pingru.
The married daughter doesn't often go to her parents' house on weekdays, and her and Yin Pingru's letters are nothing more than gossip about the little things in life.
Lu Qingrong took the letter and opened it directly, and looked at it in front of Jiang Xuan.
It's just that after looking at it, the expression on her face gradually became a little solemn. RS
