Chapter Eighty-Six: Competing for Favor
Aunt An's face changed slightly, her eyebrows frowned slightly, and she knelt on the ground and said, "The concubine didn't teach Fang'er these words......"
"It wasn't taught by my aunt." Lu Shufang bit her lip, she was angry but didn't dare to speak, so she could only endure her temper and said, "It was me who was careless, it wasn't my aunt who taught me to call her that." Please mother...... Ask the mother to punish her. ”
Lu Shufang's aunt made Aunt An's heart ache, as if a sharp knife slashed from the tip of her heart, bloody and painful.
Wu's eyelids moved, glanced at Lu Shufang, and said, "When you go back, let the grandmother next to you teach you the rules, do you know?" ”
Lu Shufang had never been reprimanded like this here in the Wu Clan, and this was the first time. The little girl felt aggrieved and anxious in her heart, her eyes were red, and she choked with tears for a long time before she said, "I know......"
Wu nodded and stretched out his hand to Aunt An: "You can get up too, I can understand your heart as a mother." ”
After all, the Wu family still can't do Aunt An's disregard for a little bit of human affection, they are all the mothers of children, and she knows that kind of feeling.
"Fang'er is also tired, I won't keep her, you can take it back and let her rest earlier! In the next half month, let her reflect in the room and don't go out and walk around. Wu said meaningfully: "It's not just that you are embarrassed by that scene, why am I not embarrassed?" ”
Aunt An answered, her eyes moved slightly, flashing a little unwilling.
Lu Shufang is even more unwilling, is this going to be grounded? Isn't it a joke that she was grounded as soon as she came back?
Lu Shuyi's eyes flashed with joy, but such a punishment was far from enough. Aunt An's debt has to be repaid little by little.
Arrived at the Champs-Mansion. Lu Shujing couldn't help but put her arms around Wu's neck and said coquettishly: "Mother." You're amazing. It's been all these years, and it's the first time I've seen you teach Lu Shufang that girl! ”
Wu smiled bitterly and shook her head, she was born with an indisputable temperament, if Aunt An hadn't done too much, she would not have been able to embarrass Aunt An and Lu Shufang.
“…… It's not just the seven girls, even if you don't follow the rules, I will also punish you. Wu raised his hand and rubbed Lu Shufang's hair, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a few days." I see you're getting bigger. ”
"Really?" Lu Shujing stood on the ground happily and turned around, and said with a smile: "Have you grown taller?" ”
The maids and grandmothers in the room couldn't help laughing, and the Wu family also laughed happily, and the complexion on her face improved a lot, and she pulled Lu Shujing and nodded on her forehead and said, "You...... Goblin's. ”
It seems that she still has to be by her mother's side in order for her to be happy, and her illness can get better quickly, Lu Shuyi also laughed, pouted and said: "Mother is just eccentric, you have been in the house for so long, you just talk to your sister." Ignore me. ”
The house was full of words, and the maids and women also joked.
Wu's eyebrows and eyes were crooked when he smiled. Hurriedly stretched out his arm and said, "My Yi'er has also grown taller, come over and let me take a look." ”
"It's not high, I think my sister is fat." Lu Shujing flattened her mouth and said: "Don't you know, Yizhou's pastries are delicious, rose crisp, mung bean cake, osmanthus cake, ......" Her eyes were shining, and she instructed Narcissus: "Go, bring the dim sum box I brought to my mother." ”
Wu smiled and rubbed Lu Shujing's little face: "You still bought me snacks?" ”
"I bought it for me from my cousin Liangyu, and I also brought you Quanfulou's donkey meat baked cakes. By the way, I brought one for my father, and I'll send it over later. Lu Shujing smiled brightly.
“…… Donkey meat is a hair thing, and if you are not cured, you should eat less. Lu Shuyi reminded at the right time.
Wu nodded, smiled and instructed Mama Zhao to put away the donkey meat baked cakes: "I'll eat it when I want to." ”
The mother and daughter had a good relationship, and Lu Shujing said, "Shall we go to see my father first?" ”
"You go and change your clothes first, and then we'll go after you get dressed." Lu Shuyi gently nudged Lu Shujing.
Wu saw that Lu Shuyi had something to say to her, so he instructed Mama Zhao to send Lu Shufang back to change her clothes.
As soon as Lu Shujing left, Wu personally carried the purple sand teapot and poured a cup of tea for Lu Shuyi, and said with a smile: "I see that you have been absent-minded all along, do you have something to say to me?" ”
Lu Shuyi nodded "um", looked at Wu with a pair of eyes, and said solemnly: "I found a prescription for you, you can take a look first." ”
"Prescription?" Wu hesitated, raised his hand to take the prescription in Lu Shuyi's hand, and asked, "Who gave it to you?" ”
"Mr. Bai of the Hou Mansion." Lu Shuyi answered truthfully and said with a smile: "His medical skills are no worse than those of Doctor Xue, and he also said that your illness can be cured." ”
Wu Shi looked at the medicinal materials in the prescription and saw that they were Ganoderma lucidum and snow ginseng, frowned for a while, shook his head and said, "These medicinal ......"
"I brought you the medicine, and it was all Mr. Bai looking for." Lu Shuyi called Mo Ju and told Mo Ju to bring the medicinal herbs over.
Mo Ju smiled and came over with a brocade box, opened it and put it in front of Wu: "This medicinal material is rare, they are all good." ”
Wu Shi looked at the box of Chinese medicinal materials, there was clear shock and deep doubt in her eyes, like a net rushing towards Lu Shuyi, she said urgently: "Who is Mr. Bai?" How did you meet him? How old is he? Also, how did he give you such a valuable thing? Your grandmother...... Does your grandmother know that? ”
Lu Shuyi chuckled. Slowly comforted: "Don't worry, Mr. Bai is a good person, and my grandmother also knows about this, or her old man asked me to find a prescription for you." As for the medicinal herbs he sent...... Of course, it wasn't given away for nothing, and I had to copy two scriptures for him! By the way, my grandmother gave him an inkstone! ”
When Wu heard that Mrs. Lu also knew about this, he was relieved, and the expression on his face became much more natural, and he recited the Buddha: "I'm afraid that you won't meet any bad people, you are still young, I am always afraid that you will be deceived." ”
"I know you're doing it for my good." Lu Shuyi's tone was a little coquettish, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked with a smile, and she said, "Mr. Bai said, let you go out and walk around more in the future, don't stay in the house all day long, it is not good for your illness." ”
Wu let out an "um". The mood also brightened: "From now on, I will go to see you and your sister every day." When the time comes, don't bother me as a mother. ”
"How can I bother you......" Lu Shuyi looked at Wu's mood and improved. I am also happy.
As for how the Wu family and Aunt An get along these days, Lu Shuyi didn't say a word.
After returning to her room, she asked Mama You carefully about the big and small things that had happened in the house these days.
Mama You replied one by one, it was just a trivial matter, and nothing big happened.
“…… By the way, two days ago, the Pan family in Baoding Mansion came to visit, and the old lady left Master Pan to live for a night, and Mrs. Pan was entertained by the eldest lady. ”
Lu Shuyi thought secretly. It seems that the Pan family had come to visit her grandfather at this time in her previous life, and at that time, she was all about He Tai, and she didn't pay much attention to these things, let alone know the purpose of the Pan family's visit......
At this time, did the Pan family betray the Huo family?
Lu Shuyi was silent, pondered for a while, and asked Mama You to call Holly and Le'er in.
Before leaving, she told the two to pay attention to Aunt An's every move, and she didn't know if she had found anything.
Holly had a calm temperament and whispered: "In the past few days when you have been gone, my aunt has rarely gone out, but she has only gone to the master every day to ask for help." The rest of the time. Every day, the flowers and grass are not abnormal. ”
Le'er also said: "But our lord didn't let my aunt stay ......"
Lu Shuyi's heart was relieved. Anyway, if her father can snub her, it will be a torment for her!
"Nothing out of the ordinary? Haven't seen anyone else? Lu Shuyi's tone was solemn and powerful: "What about the people around her?" Is there an abnormality? ”
Le'er muttered: "That day, Mrs. Pan from Baoding Mansion came to visit, and my aunt took someone to meet Mrs. Pan. ”
Aunt An also met the Pan family?
In the previous life, did Aunt An have anything to do with the Pan family?
Lu Shuyi rubbed her eyebrows, she didn't know these things, and she couldn't make a judgment immediately.
On my father's side, I should go and see it right away.
Lu Shuyi changed her homely clothes, asked Mo Ju to comb her hair again, and then went to her father's study.
In the study, Lu Er's master was talking to Lu Shujing, and the father and daughter were talking about a pair of Su Liangyu's copy of Guan Sheng's "Ink Bamboo Picture".
This is Lu Shujing who specially asked Su Liangyu to ask for it, she felt that Su Liangyu painted it very well, and wanted to bring it to Lu Er's master to taste.
It's a pity that such turbidity can't get into the eyes of Lu Er's eyes, he shook his head with a smile and said: "It's just a random painting by my daughter's family, how can such a thing be easy to use the word 'tasting'." ”
Lu Shujing was anxious, in her heart, Su Liangyu's painting skills were definitely among the best, how could she say that she couldn't taste it?
She felt that her father really had no vision, and just happened to see Lu Shuyi coming in again, so she pouted and pulled Lu Shuyi and said, "Sister, you came to comment, my father said that this painting can't be appreciated, how do you look at it?" ”
Guan Sheng's paintings are especially outstanding in Mozhu Meilan, and no matter how well Su Liangyu imitates them, in the eyes of Lu Er, it is naturally not a good thing.
Moreover, from Lu Shuyi's current point of view, this painting is indeed not very good.
Second Master Lu is also a very stubborn person, and immediately pulled Lu Shuyi's arm and said, "Yi'er, take a look, is this painting not up to the word tasting?" ”
Lu Shuyi smiled slightly: "Do you still want to compete with your daughters?" ”
"Tsk, that's not right." Second Master Lu coughed lightly, put his hands behind his back, and immediately took out a big reason, and said: "In the face of calligraphy and painting, everyone is the same, how can I let you because I am your father." He looked serious, looked at Lu Shujing and said, "If you want me to tell a lie, then I can't do it." ”
Lu Shuyi couldn't help but smile when she looked at the second master Lu with a serious face, to be honest, she had never gotten along with her father in her previous life, and she had never seen him have such a cute side, stubborn like a child.
"Sister...... Tell me, is this painting good? Lu Shujing didn't let go of the painting, she felt that it was good, that was good.
Lu Shuyi was embarrassed.
Offend your sister by telling the truth, and offend your father by telling lies......
That's a real problem.
"Or ...... Let's change the tasting? Lu Shuyi frowned, and said with a smile: "Father must want to see the painting you painted, so he said that this painting is not good." You go and get a picture of what you drew and show it to your father, and he will like it. ”
Lu Shujing is still a child after all, and it is easy to coax, so she immediately laughed when she heard this, and said, "Then I'll go get the painting I painted a few days ago, you wait." With that, he grabbed his skirt and ran away.
As soon as Lu Shujing left, Second Master Lu immediately pinched the tip of Lu Shuyi's nose and said with a smile: "You girl, ghost, I just don't want to see this painting!" I have a headache when I see it. ”
Lu Shuyi pursed her lips and smiled, turned around and looked at the painting drawn by Su Liangyu on the table, and said lightly: "Cousin Liangyu's painting has a shape, but no bones, so it is not good." ”
Second Master Lu was stunned, he had never talked about calligraphy and painting with Lu Shuyi, and he didn't know what his daughter liked. Now listening to her insight into calligraphy and painting, it turns out to be the same as he thinks.
He was interested, picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip and said, "Then you can tell me, why do you have a bone?" ”
Lu Shuyi was about to speak, but Aunt An suddenly brought Lu Shufang over.
Aunt An was dressed very plainly, but she was thoughtful in her simplicity, like an ink chrysanthemum, and smiled faintly: "Fang'er knows that you love tea, so she specially brought a pot of tea back from Yizhou, saying that it is Ba Mountain Tongue, and the concubine will make one for you to taste?" ”
Lu Shufang tilted her head and followed behind, glancing at Lu Shuyi.
Lu Shuyi didn't pay attention to it, but smiled and said to Lu Er's master: "Why don't you drink tea first?" ”
Lu Shufang saw that Lu Shuyi was empty-handed and did not bring a gift, she raised her chin proudly and said, "I don't know what good things the third sister brought to my father?" Let me see it too? ”
Looking at Lu Shufang's smug expression, Lu Shuyi couldn't help sneering in her heart, but she still had a decent smile on her face, and said lightly: "I don't have the heart of the seventh sister, and I also brought tea to my father." I just brought a few snacks and left them with my mother. When my father is free, I think he'll go eat. She smiled sweetly at Second Master Lu sideways, and said very well-behaved: "You will go to eat, right?" ”
Second Master Lu laughed: "I was thinking about going to see your mother......"
Aunt An's face suddenly became ugly.
Since the second master Lu came back, he has not been to her room. It's just that I don't go to her room, and I often stay in Wu's room.
Wu is a sick seedling, can you serve him?
Aunt An felt that she had suffered a great shame and bit her lower lip fiercely.
Lu Shufang also felt bored and was silent for a while.
Lu Shuyi didn't move, and reminded Lu Er with a smile: "Do you still have this painting?" Still is...... Would you like tea? ”
Second Master Lu glanced at Aunt An and said lightly: "Look at the painting first." ”
Lu Shuyi smiled, ignoring the expression on Aunt An's face, and continued: "The root bone I just said, I think it is because the momentum of this ink bamboo is not good, and the momentum of the pen is missing. Her fingertips fell on the painting, "For example, this bamboo knot is soft and collapsed, and I can't see the noble and indomitable posture of the bamboo at all......"
Aunt An was very bored standing on the side, but she was unwilling to walk away like this, she glanced at Lu Shufang. (To be continued......) R1292
