Chapter 140: Cousin

"It's what it looks like with a plain white bamboo pattern." Jiang Huijuan said softly: "If my cousin-in-law has anything else, you can also give it to me, I will let them follow the description, and I will be able to return it to you soon!" ”

Lu Qingrong couldn't help but smile slightly.

She actually saw that the embroidery was bamboo......

Lu Qingrong responded generously.

Originally, she wanted to ask Luzhu to help get it, but then she changed her mind.

At the banquet in Qinyi Courtyard today, because Qiu Muyun's mother and daughter had been accompanying Princess Chengyang, they also sat down at the main table.

This sitting made Lu Qingrong a little uncomfortable from beginning to end.

The mother and daughter took turns to show her all kinds of goodwill, the closeness of the tone and the exaggeration of the words made Lu Qingrong annoyed.

Only then did she decide to take Jiang Huijuan back to Yuyuan to get it in person, and she should be hiding from Qingjing.

After saying hello to Mrs. Wu, Lu Qingrong walked to the Yuyuan with Jiang Huijuan.

And Lu Qingrong hadn't noticed it at this time, and at the moment when the two of them left the table, the eldest cousin Jiang Huichun, who was sitting next to him, showed a trace of worry on her face.

"Cousin-in-law, can I often come to the Hou Mansion to play with you in the future?" Jiang Huijuan, who was walking on the road, suddenly asked, her voice revealing a sense of innocence, but it didn't seem to be a good match for her.

"Yes." Lu Qingrong replied casually: "I'm quite idle on weekdays, when you want to come over, send someone to deliver a letter first." ”

"I heard that my cousin-in-law is still studying with the husband in the female school?" Jiang Huijuan then asked.

Lu Qingrong's heart tightened a little.

"I can't talk about studying, I just practice my piano skills with Mr. Zhen." Lu Qingrong said the words that Jiang Xuan had prepared before.

"Did my cousin-in-law's female celebrity also learn from Mr. Zhen?" Jiang Huijuan's questions are one after another.

"It's not." Lu Qingrong didn't explain much this time.

Soon, the two arrived at the Yuyuan.

Lu Qingrong asked Jiang Huijuan to wait in the hall for a while, and then went into the inner room to take embroidery samples.

For privacy-related matters, Lu Qingrong has always been more optimistic. On weekdays, even the maids around him, only Luzhu can often enter and leave the inner room.

Jiang Huijuan was a little surprised by her move, but she had to wait quietly in the hall.

At this time, two maids came in from outside and brought her snacks and tea.

Jiang Huijuan couldn't help but look up at the visitor.

I saw that both of them were wearing green dresses, with picturesque eyebrows and eyes, graceful posture, very outstanding appearance, and very delicate makeup.

This look actually made Jiang Huijuan feel a faint sense of self-shame in her heart.

After the two of them retreated, although Jiang Huijuan's face was still trying to maintain a plain and normal look, her eyes inadvertently drifted towards the door of the inner room.

My cousin has just gotten married, why is there such a stunning maid in the house? Cousin-in-law doesn't care?

Jiang Huijuan's thoughts couldn't help but drift farther and farther.

I think of my cousin's chic and handsome figure now, I think of the past when they played together when I was a child, and I think of overhearing my mother and father discussing to marry her to my cousin, but in the end he married someone else......

And since her cousin got married, even if they met, they couldn't say a few words in total, so she suddenly had a whim, and planned to get closer to Lu Qingrong, as for what she was doing, she actually couldn't say it herself.

At this time, Jiang Huijuan's face suddenly froze, and she thought with some worry in her heart, could it be that her inner emotions were not well concealed enough, so that her cousin-in-law found out, so that she retreated?

Jiang Huijuan's heart felt a little uneasy.

And she was really worried.

Lu Qingrong didn't mean this at all.

Today, the Hou Mansion held a banquet, and most of the maids followed to Qinyi Courtyard to help, and only Chunyu, Xia Yue, Cai Mei, and Cai Lian were left in the Yu Courtyard.

And the reason why Cai Mei and Cai Lian were left behind was just because they were afraid that they would run to scratch their heads in front of the guests.

Lu Qingrong returned to the inner room, turned out the female red utensils he had placed in the depths, and took out all the embroidery samples in it, but suddenly found that there was no pattern of the bamboo veil in it.

Only then did she remember that she didn't embroider at the beginning, but just embroidered according to the handkerchief embroidered by the spring rain.

After hesitating for a moment, she still called Chunyu in.

"Where is the handkerchief you embroidered last time?" Now help me find out! Lu Qingrong hadn't forgotten what Jiang Xuan had asked her to throw away, but she didn't think she would really throw it away.

Sure enough, Chunyu got the order, and although his face was hard to hide his surprise, he quickly sent a clean and new handkerchief to Lu Qingrong.

Lu Qingrong was not surprised at all.

Chunyu was glad that he didn't throw away the handkerchief, but washed it and put it away.

Lu Qingrong stretched out his hand to take the handkerchief, put it together with the embroidery samples just now, and then walked out of the inner room with it.

"Here's for you." Lu Qingrong handed it directly to Jiang Huijuan, "I didn't have the pattern you wanted, but I just embroidered it according to the handkerchief above, you can take it together." ”

"Thank you, cousin!" Jiang Huijuan said politely: "I will do my best to return it." ”

"No need to rush! I don't use these things very often. Lu Qingrong is telling the truth.

Jiang Huijuan no longer insisted, and went back to Qinyi Courtyard with Lu Qingrong.

Jiang Huijuan still had some regrets about not being able to enter the inner room of the Yu Courtyard, and the two pretty girls just now really startled her, and she was a little sullen on the way back, and no longer took the initiative to provoke the topic.

Lu Qingrong didn't take the initiative to speak, and the two walked relatively silently.

At this time, Jiang Huijuan inadvertently looked down at the embroidery patterns in her hand, and was stunned for a moment.

I saw that on the stack of embroidery samples was a white bamboo handkerchief. There is no need to look carefully at all to find that this embroidery is far more exquisite and exquisite than the one on Jiang Xuan's body.

Jiang Huijuan suddenly felt an unspeakable depression in her heart.

My cousin has always been very particular about dressing and wearing, why do you not need such fine embroidery now, and you have to bring the handkerchief that is really not flattering?

She already had an answer in her heart, but because it wasn't what she wanted, she didn't want to face it.

When he returned to the banquet, Lu Qingrong's expression was as usual, and his smile was still the same.

Jiang Huijuan obviously lost her liveliness just now, and sat back in silence.

Seeing this, Jiang Huichun on the side repeatedly confirmed that there was no displeasure on Lu Qingrong's face, and his heart was a little more steady.

And Qiu Muyun and He Qingwan, as soon as they saw Lu Qingrong coming back, they focused on her alone.

It's just a matter of talking about it, and in the end, even the words "The old lady and Mrs. Tai of the He family often talk about her" came out, which couldn't help but make Lu Qingrong laugh.

At that time, when He Kai and Yin Pingru reconciled and left, they broke off with their mother and daughter very happily, and it would have been impossible to do it without the support of the elders of the He family.

At this moment, how can people believe half a point of this statement?

Lu Qingrong still had a calm smile on her face, she was already very clear about Qiu Muyun's personality, and now no matter what shocking words came out of her mouth, it made her feel unsurprising.

Lu Qingrong seemed to continue listening to Qiu Muyun's rambling words, while paying attention to Mrs. Wu at the next table.

Mrs. Wu was chatting and laughing with everyone at the banquet at this time.

Speaking of Jiang Xuan's summons by the saint, as well as the birthday gift given by the emperor to Marquis Jingyuan, he all looked honorable, and at the same time, he also exaggerated a lot of Jiang Xuan's words such as filial piety.

Of course, this praise is not only Jiang Xuan, but also occasionally mention one or two sentences of Jiang Ke, although the words are few, but they are more sincere.

The corners of Lu Qingrong's mouth curled slightly when he heard this, and the smile he showed couldn't tell whether it was clear or sarcastic.

When the banquet was coming to an end, Mrs. Wu led Lu Qingrong to turn around every table in the banquet to show her gratitude to everyone for coming to the banquet. And this is also the first time that the Hou Mansion has held a banquet after Lu Qingrong got married, and in this way, it can be regarded as officially introducing her to all the guests present.

Among the people at the banquet, most of them had already met Lu Qingrong on other occasions in the past, but a few had never seen them, and they were really amazed today.

I had heard people who had entered the new house on the day of marriage mentioned that Mrs. Jingyuan Hou Shizi was so beautiful, and when she saw it today, she was really worthy of her name, but she was somewhat puzzled that Mrs. Wu married such a good-looking bride to make the prince happy......

There are also various compliments, especially the second lady of the Chengping Marquis Mansion.

"I have always said that Mrs. Shizi is one in a hundred, not only outstanding in appearance, but also very outstanding in all aspects of character. And I heard that after Mrs. Shizi married into the Hou Mansion, Shiziye's body really improved, which shows that he is really a blessed person! ”

After speaking, the second lady herself covered her mouth and laughed.

There were many people next to him who chimed in.

Lu Qingrong looked at the second lady's oily face, I don't know if it was because he listened to what she just said, or because he was dazzled by the red gold tassel hairpin on her head that shook with laughter, and he felt a little dizzy.

Fortunately, when it was approaching, the banquet in Qinyi Temple finally began to gradually disperse.

Lu Qingrong followed Mrs. Wu and saw off waves of guests at the door of the flower hall.

When the people of the Yanguo Mansion led Tang Shan away, Mrs. Wu still showed special enthusiasm for them.

Especially Tang Shan, not only thanked her more for her words than others, but also kept instructing, "I will often come to the Hou Mansion with your mother in the future" Yunyun, which couldn't help but make Lu Qingrong a little confused about what kind of medicine she was selling in this gourd.

With her understanding of Mrs. Wu, it was really strange to be so so.

But Lu Qingrong's train of thought was soon interrupted by Qiu Muyun's mother and daughter.

Before the two left, they still did not forget to remind Lu Qingrong again and again, asking her to come to the church meeting in He Mansion at that time.

Lu Qingrong was still noncommittal, just smiled, neither shirked nor agreed.

And at this time, Lu Qingrong was not the only one who was troubled by this.

Jiang Xuan, who was seeing off guests in the front yard, was the same. RS
