Chapter 34: The Matchmaker

The sky was bright, the rain was still on Dongting Lake, and the building boat was lively.

On a very ordinary morning during a long journey, the atmosphere was a little imperceptibly different.

Zhu Manzhi drank too much yesterday, and was hiding in the house thinking about who carried her back yesterday, but she hasn't figured it out yet, so her face has been red.

Xu Buling didn't know if he drank too much yesterday, but he definitely got on the head, although it wasn't a big deal, but he was a little embarrassed in his heart, and when he had breakfast with Xiang'er, the hands under the table were a lot more secure.

Xiao Xiang'er has been bullied so many times, she has long figured out the nature of her stinky brother, and she is not surprised by the shameless appearance of her death last night, and naturally she doesn't mind, at this moment, she is thinking about how to use Zhongli Jiujiu's medicine, as for what she said last night, she has already forgotten about it.

In addition, Zhongli Jiujiu, who spent a lot of effort to prepare the medicine yesterday, also had a strange expression.

Zhongli Jiujiu is a highly accomplished expert in medicine, and he is naturally interested in this aspect, and he is also very concerned about what he has to offer. After getting up early in the morning, he walked around the corridor and secretly looked at Xu Buling's expression.

It's a pity that when Xu Buling puts on his clothes, he will always be cold and extraordinary and gentle and elegant, and there are almost no people who can see through his thoughts from his face. Xiao Xiang'er has been the queen mother for ten years, and it is the basic skill that joy and anger are invisible, and she can't see anything.

The purpose of this trip is Jiangnan, and I have to go to Yuelu Mountain, so I can't stay for a long time. After eating, Xu Buling and Ning Yu got off the boat and went to Junshan Island on the other side of the lake to find out the news of Ning Qingye.

It was still raining in the sky, and Mrs. Lu couldn't go out to play, so she embroidered flowers in the boudoir to pass the time.

Mrs. Lu lived in Xu Buling's room, which was quite large, and half of the robe was placed on the table, and Mrs. Lu and Yue Nu were discussing the decorative patterns.

Mrs. Lu is obviously a very traditional woman, in Chang'an before, Xu Buling was the only one by her side, and she took care of a lot, and she would have nothing to eat some flying vinegar.

But since Xu Buling gradually had more women around her, Mrs. Lu realized that Xu Buling was not the child she imagined, she had grown up a long time ago, had her own life and friends, and no longer needed to be verbosive, and she may never have needed it.

After thinking clearly, Mrs. Lu didn't say a word more, in the past, if she didn't see Xu Buling for three days, she would let the Imperial Forest Army search the city, but now, she couldn't see Xu Buling for many days, and she just stood at the window and watched, and when she came back, she wouldn't ask, 'Where did you go?' What did you go?'

It's not that Mrs. Lu has changed, and now she is still jealous and jealous in her heart, and she wants to know what Xu Buling did and where she went every day, but now she hides all these things in her heart and doesn't show it.

Just like those ladies of wealthy families, they know how to be proportionate and restrained, don't care about what you shouldn't care, don't ask what you shouldn't ask, most of the women who are too self-righteous don't end well, even Xiao Xiang'er, who has been the queen mother, knows this truth.

As for whether she is happy now, Mrs. Lu has never thought about this, maybe as long as she is happy, she will be happy, there is only one person in her world, why care about family affection or the love between men and women, why bother to compete with other women for who is more or less, as long as they are together and not separated, they will be satisfied.

It was raining lightly outside the window, and Mrs. Lu, who was wearing a dark green autumn dress, was holding a needle and thread, and was imagining the appearance of the new robe in her hand on Xu Buling's body, when footsteps suddenly sounded at the door, and then there was a knock on the door:

Knock Knock –

Mrs. Lu turned around, but saw Xiao Xiang'er pushing open the door and walking in, carrying a snack box in her hand.

"Xiang'er, you don't make medicine, what are you doing here?"

"I'm a little tired, come and sit."

Xiao Xiang'er looked calm, with three points of laziness, slowly walked to the table and sat down, put down the food box, and took the fabric that was being cut from the hand of the moon slave.

Yuenu knew that the two sisters were chatting very openly in private, and they had no intention of listening, so they got up with a smile and went out and closed the door.

Mrs. Lu took the needle and thread and glanced at Xiao Xiang'er:

"Detoxified Ling'er again last night? Don't brace, do you want to lie down? ”

Xiao Xiang'er didn't care about this joke at all, but sighed faintly, looking like she wanted to talk and stopped.

Mrs. Lu didn't wait for Xiao Xiang'er's face to be red and angry, but waited until she sighed softly, couldn't help frowning slightly, hesitated a little, put down the needle and thread, and moved the stool to Xiao Xiang'er's side:

"Xiang'er, what's wrong?"

Xiao Xiang'er pursed her lips, shook her head and said, "It's nothing, my personal matter with Xu Buling has nothing to do with you......"

!!?

This sentence was meaningless and stabbed Mrs. Lu in the heart.

Mrs. Lu and Xu Buling have always been intimate, whether they meet or live together, she comes first. and Xiao Xiang'er are also best friends who talk about everything, and the two of them have never had any secrets, even if they have a secret conversation in the room.

Now that Xu Buling and Xiao Xiang'er are together, they should be more intimate and have nothing to talk about, but she has become an outsider!

Your private affairs with Ling'er have nothing to do with me......

Mrs. Lu's eyes turned red for a moment, her hand tightly squeezed her skirt, she thought about it, but she didn't show her sour eyes in the past, but smiled slightly embarrassedly, lowered her head and picked up the needle and thread, and didn't ask any more.

Xiao Xiang'er seemed to sense that the words were hurtful, and quickly explained: "I didn't mean that...... Well, it's just hard to speak, it's hard to speak......"

Mrs. Lu bit her lower lip, raised her eyes and glanced at Xiao Xiang'er, and smiled gently: "Really?" ”

"Really, don't think about it, we never say anything, we even tell you what the fox's tail does, we don't hide it from you, it's just ...... Just ......"

Xiao Xiang'er's face was a little anxious, as if she was trying to comfort her best sister, and kept explaining what she had just said.

The two most important people in Mrs. Lu's heart, except for Xu Buling, there was only the only friend Xiao Xiang'er left, seeing Xiao Xiang'er's expression so abnormal, as if it was really difficult to speak, she temporarily swept away the loss in her heart, frowned and said:

"Could it be that Ling'er quarreled with you? Or did it hit you? ”

"It's not."

Xiao Xiang'er sat a little closer, with a little helplessness in her eyes: "Forget it, I'll tell you directly, don't turn your head and tell Xu Buling...... He'll say my ......"

Mrs. Lu's face became a little serious, she sat up straight, and nodded seriously: "If you have something to say, if Ling'er is really wrong, I will not favor him." ”

Xiao Xiang'er's eyes were a little tangled, and she said:

"Don't let him ...... He is too stubborn, I am afraid that he will lose his essence and blood, so I prepared some things for him to replenish the kidney and strengthen the yuan, nourish qi and generate blood, no matter how good a man's body is, there is a limit, and a little recuperation should be. But he felt that those old men who couldn't get up ate ate these, and as soon as I said that, he felt that I was saying that he couldn't do it...... I'm......"

"Uh......"

Mrs. Lu's face turned red, and she looked left and right: "Ling'er...... Need these? ”

"Nature." Xiao Xiang'er opened the food box and took out the small wine bottle inside: "It's a thing to nourish the body, and there is no harm in it, I spent a lot of effort with Miss Zhongli to get it." He is in good health now, but what will he do in ten years? If you don't recuperate now, you won't remember it until something is wrong, but it's too late, you haven't heard of the lady of Kuishou Street, how much effort has been spent to make up for the husband's body......"

Mrs. Lu thought carefully and nodded slightly: "It also makes sense...... But Ling'er doesn't seem to be the kind of person who wants to save face, how can you refuse with your kindness? ”

Xiao Xiang'er sighed: "It depends on who you are against, you talk about him, he naturally listens to everything." I have a relationship with Xu Buling, but the relationship between detoxification and detoxification, he naturally didn't admit it when he said this, don't you believe that you will try to find Miss Zhongli and talk to him about it? You see that he is angry, maybe he will prove that Miss Zhongli is correcting the Fa on the spot......"

Mrs. Lu pondered for a while, felt that it was the same, picked up the small wine bottle and looked at it: "You mean to let me persuade him?" But this kind of thing, how can I, the aunt, open my mouth......"

Xiao Xiang'er frowned slightly: "It's not an unclean thing, it's just to warm up your body, you can drink it." In the evening, you call him to the house to have a meal together, talk about the shortcomings of the family, and then you will finish drinking. ”

Mrs. Lu is not stupid, she thought for a while, and looked at Xiao Xiang'er: "If it's just like that, why don't you just prepare two glasses of wine at night, why let me come?" Do you have something to hide from me? ”

Xiao Xiang'er blinked, shook her head and said, "Okay, I'm embarrassed, I didn't tell him at all, in case he sees it, he can't laugh at me...... You're his aunt, even if you can see it, it's for his good, he can understand......"

Mrs. Lu suddenly said lightly: "It's been for a long time just for this?" After bending around for so long, I thought it was a big deal......"

Xiao Xiang'er glared slightly: "Is it okay?" If it doesn't work, forget it, I drank it myself, I finally got it, and it can also help with beauty and beauty, it's a pity that it's cheap. ”

Mrs. Lu took the wine bottle in her hand and looked at it a few times, and nodded lightly: "With a gesture, you have opened your mouth to beg me, how can I refuse, anyway, I haven't eaten with Ling'er for a long time, help you." ”

Xiao Xiang'er secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Don't tell others, in case you don't let it smell, let the maid hear that we are worried about this matter, and we have to laugh at us behind our backs......"

Mrs. Lu put the small wine bottle on the table: "Got it, Rory, let's be gossip." ”

"Hehe......"

Xiao Xiang'er's eyebrows were crooked, she glanced at Mrs. Lu a few times, and then said, "Hongluan, your dress is a bit earthy. ”

Mrs. Lu looked down: "Why don't you go out on the boat, why are you dressed so ceremonious?" ”

"Hmm...... I just learned a new hair accessory, and I can't go out in the rain anyway, so let me practice my hands and dress you up......"

Saying that, without waiting for Mrs. Lu's consent, Xiao Xiang'er stood up, ran back to the room and hugged a set of extremely bewitching dresses......
