Lin Shangshu has very high cheekbones, a dark yellow complexion, and white temples, like a monkey who has been hungry for a long time, which shows that he has not thought about tea and dinner these days.

His tall, thin and bamboo-like body seemed to be able to blow it away when the wind blew, and his grandmother was just like his grandfather.

Lu Chang looked at the two old men with poor faces, and she was very worried.

Lin Shangshu was afraid that this little thing would take advantage of his absence to run to his father to send Mo Chuqing's actions, and he still had to plan this matter, so he could only wronged his hard-working daughter first.

He persuaded bitterly: "Your father may or may not know, but you must not bet on your father's favor for Mo Chuqing, grandpa and grandma are old, you have to be careful!" ”

She tried to pull away a smile and nodded obediently, "I know." ”

Mrs. Shangshu handed over the box of jewels to Lu Manman's hand again, and her eyes were full of doting on her, "You must take good care of your mother's relics, and take them to your husband's house as a dowry in the future." ”

Lu Manman took the jewels from her grandmother's hand and hugged them tightly in her arms, she knew that her grandfather and grandmother were leaving, and she felt very uncomfortable.

She showed a sweet smile obediently, and then said glutinously: "Grandpa, grandma, you have to take good care of yourself, Daddy said that he would invite a teacher to come to the house to teach everyone to read and write, and I will go to see you when I am free." ”

Mrs. Shangshu stroked her scattered hair, and then hugged her, her kind appearance was very similar to Lin Qingcheng.

"Okay, grandpa and grandma are waiting to see us."

Lin Shangshu looked attentive and said softly: "You go back to the house first, let's pack up and go home." ”

Lu Man nodded and left the room, holding the jewels and slowly walking back to his room to rest.

Lin Shangshu once fought with Lu Chenyuan for the custody of Lu Manman, but Lu Chenyuan did not agree that his flesh and blood were left behind, especially him and his beloved daughter, Lu Manman.

Since then, Lin Shangshu can't compete with him in terms of speech, and he hopes that Lu Manman can come to the Lin Mansion by himself, so that he can think of leaving his granddaughter.

In the evening, the Lin couple left the Prime Minister's Mansion, and at the same time, on the high wall outside the mansion, the two white lanterns were still parked and swayed by the evening breeze.

"Knock knock...... Knock knock knock ......"

Outside the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, a jade-faced man dressed in black was banging on the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and his crisp voice was very soft, "Is anyone there?" ”

The subordinate guarding the door opened the door, and when he saw the delicate-looking and ruddy-faced son in front of him, he thought to himself, this should be a distinguished guest invited by the master!

The man bowed and saluted, and said slowly, "The younger generation was entrusted by the prime minister to come to your mansion to do business, and I also asked this eldest brother to let the younger generation into the mansion." ”

The doorman in a light blue linen shirt invited him into the house after confirming it, and said politely: "Since the prince is the lord's honored guest, how can we who are subordinates have no reason not to welcome him?" Childe walks straight along this road to the main hall, and the butler is waiting in the main hall! ”

The man smiled and said gently: "There is Brother Lao, the juniors will go and get busy first." ”

After that, the man threw up his sleeves and left, and the back under the sunset was free and easy.

The jade-faced Langjun strolls along the smooth white cobblestone path, which is lined with different flower trees, including peach trees with pink stamens, longan trees bent by brown fruits, and lychee trees that are known as concubines' smiles...... It turned out that the owner of the family liked to plant fruit trees.

He knew the topography of the front yard after walking less than half a pillar of incense, and soon came to the main hall.

There was a radiant old man standing in front of him, well-dressed, and at a glance he knew that this person was highly respected in the mansion.

When the old man saw the man coming, he stepped forward, smiling, kind and dignified, and he introduced himself: "I am the housekeeper of the house, dare to ask the prince is Situ Xiuyuan?" ”

Situ Xiuyuan nodded slightly, he lightly opened his thin lips and said helplessly: "It is in the next place, the juniors who settled in Beijing and dared to come non-stop, but it was still a little late." ”

Originally, Situ Xiuyuan could have entered Beijing very early, but there were some episodes along the way that were delayed, and he was very worried that Prime Minister Lu would blame him for this and blame him for not being punctual.

The housekeeper seemed to see the clue, and he said in a friendly tone: "It's okay Situ Gongzi, it is an honor for you to visit this mansion, it is getting late, is Gongzi willing to stay in the mansion?" I have asked people to pack up the wing room in the east courtyard, and my son can move in as soon as he wants. ”

"That junior might as well be respectful, and ask the housekeeper to guide the way."

Situ Xiuyuan turned around and just wanted to leave, but the housekeeper hadn't finished speaking.

The housekeeper answered: "Don't worry, stay for the time being, my lord still has something to say to my son in person, please come with me first." ”

Situ Xiuyuan was embarrassed by this, although he was very annoyed by the housekeeper's leisurely actions, but he was still calm and light on the surface, and he couldn't see any clues.

Situ Xiuyuan slowly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Please ask the housekeeper to guide the way." ”

"Childe comes with me."

With that, the butler turned and walked to the left hand side of the main hall, and after passing a few rooms, he stopped.

"The master is waiting for you in the study."

I saw the housekeeper slapping on the wooden door as he spoke, and then a voice came from inside the house.

"Enter."

Just such a word has been tossed for a long time.

Situ Xiuyuan smiled gently, "I'm tired." ”

Then he stepped into the study, and there was a hole in it.

The study in the mansion was not as strange as other nobles, but simple to the point of having only a desk and a black chair.

The young man in front of him picked up a pen and wrote a few strong and powerful characters - Pengmen is now open for you.

Situ Xiuyuan bowed and saluted, and respectfully blessed Lu Chenyuan, "The younger generation has seen the Prime Minister, and the Lord is happy." ”

Lu Chenyuan put down the brush in his hand, waved his hand and said, "Baile can't talk about it, do you think this couplet is very suitable for you?" ”

Situ Xiuyuan naturally understood the meaning, and he said humbly: "The younger generation is not talented, thanks to the prime minister's love." ”

Lu Chenyuan's mind was hard to figure out, he lowered his eyes and smiled evilly, "Do you know who I hate the most in my life?" ”

Seeing him like this, Situ Xiu felt like a mountain of pressure in his heart, but on the surface he was calm and composed, he still said respectfully: "The younger generation is ignorant, please also ask the prime minister to give advice." ”

Lu Chenyuan put his big palm on the table, and his face was suddenly unpredictable, and his tone was strange, "It's a scholar!" I hate groveling, flowery but inflexible readers, don't you? ”

When Situ Xiuyuan heard this, he lowered his head gloomily, he didn't feel that he was wrong in doing so, he raised his head again, looked directly at each other, and his words were sonorous and powerful, "Etiquette and morality come first, the elders and young are respectful and humble in the back, the younger generation just respectfully treats the prime minister, that's all, nothing else, if the adult has any suspicions, the junior has nothing to say." ”
