Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Guest
When the two sisters arrived at Fushouju, the eldest lady He led the second lady, Lu Shuqi, to arrive.
Lu Shuqi is the second daughter of the He family, who is thirteen years old this year, and is a sign of birth. In her previous life, she was a person with a very good personality, and she didn't like to talk about right and wrong in Su Ri, and she could say a few words to the sisters in the hospital, but she was not close to them.
When the Lu family was convicted, she escaped the catastrophe and married into the Qian family, a big family in the south of the Yangtze River, and became the granddaughter-in-law of the Qian family.
In fact, Lu Shuyi has always wondered why the eldest wife didn't marry Lu Shuqi to the official family, but married into the family of the merchants? Among them, is there anything else that can't be hidden?
"Third sister, eighth sister, you are here." Lu Shuyi didn't have time to think about it, Lu Shuqi had already smiled at their sisters.
Although this smile is warm, it can be experienced carefully, and it seems to have a sense of distance. Obviously, she didn't want to be friends with their sisters.
"Third cousin, eighth cousin is good." There was also a tall girl standing beside Lu Shuqi. This girl is wearing a silver-red folded magnolia and Shu brocade skirt, combing a double bun, and wearing a headband with ivory carved ginkgo biloba on her head. The thin lips are just right to embellish the skin, and it feels very mean, but you can't hate it......
Lu Shuyi looked at the smile on the girl's face, and her heart shook, as if a drum was beating, hitting her heart one by one.
He Zhao'er......
I didn't expect to see her here, and I didn't expect that the moment I saw her, my heart still couldn't be indifferent.
In her memory, in order to know more about He Tai, she often went to talk to this eldest lady. gave her all her best and favorite things, thinking that she would treat herself sincerely, but she took the letter she wrote to He Tai, preached it everywhere, and slandered her everywhere......
Even later, after she was banned, she came to the Buddhist hall to ridicule and mock her......
The piercing pain disturbed Lu Shuyi again, and she couldn't be at peace.
He Zhao'er is like a poisonous poppyIt is like millet, blooming with beauty, but pregnant with filth.
Lu Shuyi bit her lower lip tightly, her chest rose and fell, and it took a long time before she gradually gathered her mind, Mu Mu let herself squeeze out a smile, and nodded at He Zhao'er. So he stepped forward to greet Mrs. Lu.
Mrs. Lu sat on the couch, a few side dishes and a bowl of ham stewed pigeon were placed on the kang table, the pigeon was still steaming, the fragrance was overflowing, and Mrs. Lu's voice was calm: "In the next month, you will be exempted from the morning and dusk of your sisters, and you will take good care of your mother." ”
Lu Shuyi and Lu Shujing bowed their knees in response, and then stood beside the painter.
He Zhao'er was still chuckling at her, she only pretended not to see it, her eyes and nose were looking at her nose, and her nose was standing with her heart and heart.
Lu Shujing glanced at Lu Shuyi quickly, as if she was looking at He Zhao'er.
Lu Shuyi smiled bitterly in her heart, and only grabbed Lu Shujing's hand tightly through her sleeve. Lu Shujing was comforted in her heart and breathed a long sigh of relief.
At that time, Aunt An also came to ask for peace, but Lu Shufang did not follow. When Mrs. Lu asked, Aunt An only said, "I caught a cold last night, and my body was a little uncomfortable." ”
Mrs. Lu didn't say anything else, just glanced at her intently, and said lightly: "It's important to take care of the children, you are also busy these days." She retracted her gaze and said without a trace of hesitation: "Now that the in-laws are here, the second wife, you don't have to wait." ”
Aunt An knew this, bit her lip slightly, and bent her knees.
The eldest lady raised her hand to add food for Mrs. Lu, and chuckled: "Mother, Zhao'er said that she wanted to go to see the second brother and sister, but I was afraid of disturbing the second brother and sister." In the end, it is better to be sick or recuperate. ”
He Zhao'er smiled, she looked very likable, and Mrs. Lu praised her a lot in her previous life.
"Old lady, when my mother came yesterday, I wanted to go and see my wife, but I was afraid of disturbing the second wife, so I didn't go." Her voice was as sweet as boiling a pot of wosi candy, and she glanced at Lu Shuyi quickly, and said, "She explained to me when she left, and asked me to take the time to take a look at the second wife." After a pause, he said: "My brother also wants to go and see, but he can't enter the inner room, so he doesn't dare to make a mistake, so I can only greet him on my behalf." ”
When she spoke, she deliberately bit the word brother very hard, as if she was deliberately trying to say it to someone.
Lu Shuyi hated a lot in her heart, she was stupid in her previous life, if He Zhao'er said this, she would definitely secretly find time to please He Zhao'er and let her talk more about her brother.
He Zhao'er also took advantage of her eagerness and teased her from time to time.
She pinched the handkerchief in her hand fiercely, and chuckled: "Cousin is really bothered, cousin went to visit her mother, and her mother is not in a hurry to be happy, how can she be annoyed?" She paused slightly, and said indifferently: "It's just that my mother has been sick, and the house is also seriously sick, if my cousin goes, I'm always afraid that I will pass the illness to my cousin, and then my mother should blame herself again." ”
She didn't say a word about He Tai, and even made it clear that she didn't want He Zhao'er to see her mother.
He Zhao'er was stunned for a moment, her eyes flashed with something different, she seemed confused, and she seemed to hesitate......
Although the eldest lady did not look at her, her eyes swept to her side several times. Don't think about it, Lu Shuyi also knows what is in the eldest lady's eyes.
Aunt An glanced at her thoughtfully, the corners of her mouth seemed to be smiling, and she quickly lowered her eyelids.
After such a loud sound, He Zhao'er curled the corners of her lips slightly: "That's it...... That...... Then I'm not going to bother. ”
"Aren't you going to stay a few more days?" The eldest lady reminded with a smile and said, "When the second wife is better, you can go to see her again." ”
Old Lady Lu also nodded and said, "Divine Doctor Xue should also be coming, with Divine Doctor Xue, this disease will definitely get better quickly." ”
"Yes, that's what the old lady said." Aunt An showed an extremely virtuous smile, as if she was looking forward to Divine Doctor Xue, and said softly: "With Divine Doctor Xue, the concubine will be relieved." ”
Lu Shuyi listened to these insincere words, and only felt disgusting in her heart.
It seems that she is not the only one who is disgusting, Mrs. Lu did not react to Aunt An's words, took a sip of pigeon soup, and said slowly: "The first day of the next month is the birthday of Mrs. Dingbeihou, what gift to give, you have to bother to prepare." ”
Such a major event has always been prepared by the He family, and the He family smiled and said, "Don't worry, when you are ready, I will send you the list, and you will decide after you see it." ”
Lu Shuyi's mind moved slightly, when Mrs. Dingbei was born, the Lu family seemed to have sent a waiting pearl, this bead was the collection of the old man Lu, and I heard that it was worth a fortune.
As soon as Hou Zhu was born, I heard that it was a big day, and the old man Lu was also proud for a long time, thinking that the Lu family would get the blue eyes of Dingbeihou, but he didn't wait for anything......
When Old Man Lu mentioned this later, he would always feel sorry for the bead and regret it.
The so-called stealing chickens does not make rice, that's about it......
