Lu Zuo saw that his younger brother Renxiang wanted to speak and stopped, and then looked at the embarrassed face of He Shi who was on the side, and now if he pretended not to see it, it seemed to be too faceless, so he smiled and bowed to He Shi, and asked his younger brother: "Renxiang, who is this...... You haven't introduced it yet? ”

"She is ......" Lu Renxiang saw his brother asking, the original oath, suddenly became a little timid, turned his head and looked at He again, and saw that his wife was looking at him half anxiously and half resentful at this time, so he stubbornly said, "She is my wife......

"Oh?" Lu Zuo pretended to be surprised, then smiled heartily, and then patted Lu Renxiang's shoulder, and said with relief, "Haha...... That's a joy! I'm so happy for you! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, He hurriedly saluted Lu Zuo Daofu, "I've seen my brother......"

"No courtesy, no courtesy!" Lu Zuo glanced at He Shi and nodded with satisfaction, "Hmm!" At a glance, you can see that it is everyone's beautiful girl, our family Renxiang can marry you, but I really wronged you! ”

Seeing the amiable appearance of this eldest uncle, He Shi became much bolder, and said with a smile: "The eldest brother is joking, Renxiang is considerate, and it is a blessing for the concubine to be able to marry him!" ”

Lu Zuo suddenly changed his words, and asked his younger brother with some jokingness: "My two brothers have exchanged letters for more than half a year, why have I never heard you mention that they have already started a family?" ”

In an instant, Lu Renxiang's face turned red, and he didn't know where to start. It was He Shi who helped to relieve the siege and said: "Renxiang was transferred to Suzhou, and he spent all his efforts on governing Suzhou, and when he married me, he didn't get the knowledge of his family, so he didn't dare to speak." Today, the concubine is here, and I will plead guilty to the eldest brother first! ”

He was about to kneel on the ground after speaking, Lu Zuo hurriedly said: "Brother and sister misunderstood, the foolish brother is not asking for the guilt, but blaming Renxiang for marrying such a virtuous daughter-in-law Why don't you tell the family." Hurry up! ”

"Thank you, big brother!" He smiled at Renxiang and slowly stood up.

Then Lu Zuo continued to ask: "Which girl is my brother and sister?" Presumably after being born into a famous family, right? ”

He Shi's face was originally with a smile, but when she was asked by the eldest brother at this moment, she suddenly became stiff, she turned her head and looked at Renxiang in a daze, but He Renxiang lowered his head silently, not ready to help solve the meaning, He gritted his teeth in his heart, nodded to the eldest brother and smiled: "The concubine is the eldest daughter of Lord Suzhou Thorn Shi." When he was in Suzhou, his father saw that Renxiang was diligent and diligent, so he ...... himself"

Lu Zuo muttered in his heart, he didn't expect that this He family is really a person who can speak well, if He Younian married his daughter to Renxiang just because he was diligent and devotive, then this reason is too far-fetched, seeing that she is so smart, she must not be a good person! But didn't Renxiang know that her father was the prince's person? Judging from Renxiang's various performances just now, it is obvious that he also knows the identity behind the He family, but since he will marry the He family, there must be something hidden in this. Lu Zuo thought to himself, his face still showed flattery, and he smiled: "Oh? To be able to marry the daughter of Lord Thorn Shi, then my family Renxiang is simply lucky for three lives! I don't know how many lifetimes of blessings our Lu family ancestors have cultivated! Haha......"

He Shi only frowned at this moment, she knew that Lu Zuo was the prince's old enemy, since he was defenseless against himself, indicating that his identity as the daughter of Suzhou Thorn Shi did not affect Lu Zuo's trust in herself. He smiled happily: "Big brother said it's funny!" ”

Lu Renxiang's original hanging heart finally fell to the ground at this time, and he also smiled and said, "Why didn't you come out without seeing your sister-in-law?" ”

Yin Ji grabbed the white and said: "The master has already prepared the wine and food at home, just waiting for you to catch the wind and wash the dust!" ”

Lao Pan behind Lu Zuo also suddenly appeared at this time, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the uncle and the second master for reuniting after a long absence." Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and it's not too late for the second master to come back, but it's almost dawn now, let's go back to the house and catch up again! ”

The lights at the gate of Lu's house are lit up today, that is, the day when Lu Renxiang comes back is calculated, and he is ready to spend a year, and he will arrange the wine and food early, and then stand in front of the hanging flower door and wait.

When Lu Zuo led Lu Renxiang and the others back, Jing Jingruo hurriedly ordered his subordinates to set off firecrackers again to show that they would drive away evil spirits. When Lu Renxiang and Jing Jingruo's uncle and sister-in-law saw each other again, they couldn't help but cry again. Lu Renxiang hurriedly pulled the He family to kowtow to his sister-in-law, but Jingruo hurriedly stopped them and led them to the dining hall for dinner.

After the family gathered and had a drink, the whole courtyard was filled with laughter. The night was getting deeper, Lu Zuo and Lu Renxiang were already drunk, Chen Huizhi was also a little drunk, only Yin Ji didn't drink and helped take care of the drunk back and forth. It was not too early to be quiet, so he asked Yin Ji and Chen Huizhi to help the two Lu Zuo brothers to rest in the master bedroom, and he and He lived in the ear room together.

When the moon is in the sky, the wind outside the house is wild, and the window lattice is patted intermittently. It was still dark in the room, but a pair of bright eyes on the bed were looking up and thinking. After a long time, he seemed to hear a sigh, and asked, "Renxiang, you haven't slept either?" ”

"Brother, why haven't you slept yet?"

Listening to Lu Renxiang's voice, he seemed a little surprised. Lu Zuo smiled unhurriedly, "I can't sleep!" I don't think you're drunk, it's like ......."

In the dark night, after Lu Renxiang listened to his brother's words, he instantly felt that his cheeks were hot, his brother was really so shrewd, after all, he still couldn't hide it, tonight the brother and sister-in-law were hospitable, and they didn't ask about He's situation at all, and they were also polite to He's, which made Lu Renxiang more and more honestly afraid, he knew that his brother would definitely ask about it again afterwards, so he could only pretend to be drunk during the banquet, and when he slept until the second day, he would report to the household department, and then arrange a place to stay and leave here temporarily. Then my brother didn't have a chance to ask again, but I didn't expect my brother to be drunk, and what surprised Lu Renxiang even more was that he didn't fall asleep either. Now that this is asked by his brother, Lu Renxiang is a little cramped and uneasy, he sleeps at the end of his brother's bed, at this time he turned over, coughed dryly, and deliberately replied in a daze: "Brother...... Say...... And what? Go to sleep! ”

Lu Zuo's eyes felt a little dry at this time, for some reason, he closed his eyes quite bitterly, and he could feel like he was sighing slightly between his noses, although he didn't understand why his brother didn't say it, but there must be something unspeakable in it, and now it seems that it is impossible to persuade his brother to divorce his wife, so he can only be careful to watch out for He. Tonight was another sleepless night, Lu Zuo struggled in the quilt until the fifth watch, and when the sound of New Year's firecrackers sounded in his ears from time to time, he slowly fell asleep.
