Early this morning, Zi Biao was taken back to his own courtyard by Wan Ruoling to tidy up and change clothes, Zi Biao's bedroom is a garden, named: East Garden Residence, leisure and quiet. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThis is not much different from Lu Lan's Tilting Ying Residence and Zimu's An Lin Residence, the three of them are all located in Duanren, and this is the back garden of Lu Mansion outside.

Ziqiao cleaned his face and mouth, and was pulled by Wan Ruoling to the dining room.

Today, Ziqiao is wearing a blue Yunxiang talisman bat pattern suit, with a rhino horn belt around his waist, the belt is inlaid with colorful gems, and a jade-patterned dragon jade pendant is draped in a white coat, and the snow-white fox fur on the hood is soft and comfortable, adding a touch of nobility, and fluttering gently in the breeze, quite a little free.

Wan Ruoling began to take care of this young master at a very young age, and now time flies, more than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, Wan Ruoling just watched him grow up little by little, just like treating his own children, taking care of him.

When I learned that something had happened to Ziqiu, I couldn't close my eyes for several days, but I was able to see him okay today, and I couldn't say a lot of words that I had already thought about to blame.

There are two dining rooms in Lufu, one in the front yard and one in the back yard. The former is called Jinxiang Hall, which is mainly used to welcome dignitaries and nobles and hold a grand banquet, which is magnificent and brilliant. Seats, tea sets are all made of the above materials, excellent and delicate workmanship, the floor tiles are made of the best marble slabs, clear and white can even reflect the human figure, you can see the royal gift of gold silk Nan everywhere, precious calligraphy and painting, the best porcelain of the official kilns of all dynasties, all kinds of decorations are extremely luxurious, dazzling.

The latter is relatively simple and warm, removing those vain luxuries, leaving only simple and elegant, this dining room is called Siyuan Hall, taking water and thinking of the source.

Siyuan Hall is not even one thousandth of the Jinxiang Hall in terms of scale and decoration, but this dining room is only for the owners to eat, and there is no other purpose.

Siyuan Hall is not very far from Duanren, and the only thing you have to cross is a fish pond.

The fish pond is relatively large, and the water in the pond flows left and right and finally reaches the pond cloud pond in the back garden, which is one of the most important water sources in the back garden. In order to prevent the fish from escaping along the water, iron fences are also specially installed on the left and right sides of the fish pond, and all the water sources in Lufu Mansion are introduced into the upper reaches of the Liao River, thus forming a natural automatic water exchange.

In the pool, there are beautiful rare water splashes and exquisite rockeries carved from black jade dragon tail stones, like mountains stretching in the water, forming a spectacular beauty. The corridor crossed over the fish pond, the water in which the water was clear, and the fish were frightened by the sudden footsteps and fled.

The layout of Siyuan Hall consists of two parts, separated by screens. In front of it is a small hall, mainly for the hosts to talk before the meal or rest after the meal, the screen is painted with a picture of the spring stream jumping carp, and the book: drinking water and thinking of the source.

The front is a small eight-immortal table and a pair of seats, the middle is a rectangular red mink carpet, there are exquisite patterns of dragons and phoenixes, dragons and phoenixes are embroidered with gold wire, and the central axis shall prevail; There are also two pairs of tables and chairs on both sides, a potted plant in each corner, and fine porcelain on the square shelves on the walls.

Zi Biao came to the door, the first thing he saw was his mother Qin Xirui, she was wearing a delicate purple rose case silk robe, the lower body was a gold silk embroidered purple orchid cloud smoke long skirt, the cuffs and collar were dyed purple velvet, the hair comb bun, the top inserted rare dragon scale bamboo grate and the best white jade inlaid purple diamond hairpin, wearing purple gemstone silver earrings, all kinds of exquisite makeup show its supreme dignity.

On the left side of Qin Xirui stood a richly dressed woman, this is Shen Yanan, the second lady of the Lu Mansion, and also Zifu's second aunt, and on the right side stood three hardcover maids, they were Qin Xirui's favorite girls, namely Chunliu, Xia He and Dong Mei. These people are the dowry maids that Qin Xirui brought from the Zhou Mansion.

Lu Lan sat on the guest chair on the left, she was wearing a snow fox fur collar cotton coat, a hibiscus auspicious cloud flower pleated skirt on the bottom, a light blue plum blossom shirt, and a pearl headband, lining the white skin more and more crystal clear. There was Zi Mu sitting next to her, and this kid laughed happily when he saw the second brother.

There are still some people in Siyuan Hall, from young to old, they are the same clan of the Lu Mansion, when Lord Lu succeeds to the throne, except for the heirless concubine who will be buried, the rest of the people can be divided into money or stores or land, and then support themselves, and gradually become a little alienated from the lineage.

But these people will still be listed in the genealogy, and if they want to come back, the Lu Mansion cannot turn them away. Therefore, Ziqiao has no feelings for them.

Wan Ruoling appeared in front of the door with Ziqiu, and everyone's eyes here also gathered, Qin Xirui had not yet spoken, and the surrounding Lu Mansion Tongzong was chattering, "Oh, the second young master is fine." "I've been worried about it, but now I'm finally safe." "You say that the master is not here, if something happens to the second young master, how can he explain it."

Of course, Zi Biao didn't have time to take care of their main seat is the right corner, and was led to the front of the carpet by Wan Ruoling, and after Wan Ruoling saluted his wife, he retreated to the back hall to prepare breakfast.

Qin Xirui looked at Zi Wei in front of him and groaned for a while, but he also said helplessly: "This matter has passed, and I won't worry about you anymore..."

Before Qin Xirui finished speaking, Zi Biao was a little excited in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Mother, so you don't plan to lock me up?" ”

Qin Xirui pursed his lips and glared at him angrily, and Lu Lan on the side smiled secretly, this kid is quite naïve.

Zi Wei smirked awkwardly, I really hope that my mother can nod generously.

Qin Xirui didn't have any expression, but he just sighed and continued: "I won't worry about you about this matter for the time being, your cousin has now returned to Shangjing, and when the master comes back, you will go to the Zhou Mansion with me." ”

Zi Biao was stunned for a moment, then gasped and suddenly felt bad, go to Zhou's mansion? The little heart jumped all of a sudden, and hurriedly shouted: "Mother! My aunt said she was going to be confined, but I won't go anywhere! ”

Qin Xirui smiled coldly, but he didn't care, and picked up the teacup on the table and said lightly: "I don't bother you about this matter, you can't do it." As he spoke, he stirred the tea noodles and took a sip slowly.

"It's not... I..."Zi Biao was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and looked at Lu Lan is begging, "Sister-you have something to say!" ”

Lu Lan didn't expect her mother to suddenly mention this, she sighed and looked at him with some embarrassment, what can she say, your kid is in trouble first, and my mother said that she doesn't care about you, and she doesn't know how to do it, so let's follow it honestly.

Before Lu Lan could speak, the fellow Lu Mansion who was sitting with him persuaded again, "Second Young Master, just listen to Madame." "Yes, be obedient and don't make Madame angry."

"I heard that your cousin has been sick recently, should you, as an elder brother, also go to visit her, and in a few days Lan'er will take him to the market to pick up some gifts, and also follow us." Qin Xirui put down the teacup in his hand, and looked at Lu Lan on the side as he spoke.

Lu Lan is not reluctant to go to the Zhou Mansion, and since her mother has said everything about this, it is not easy to refuse, but Zi Biao is still standing in that hall and pouting, with a thoughtful look.

Qin Xirui glanced at him coldly, he had expected that it would be like this Gu didn't care very much, his eyes moved to the same sect, and then said, "Okay, everyone don't sit, let's go to the back hall to eat." ”

"Mother!"

As soon as Qin Xirui finished speaking, he was about to get up, but Zi Wei suddenly cut off, lowered his head and looked at the plush on the carpet, and said angrily: "You take my sister over, I won't go to Zhoufu if I say anything!" After speaking, he didn't care about Qin Xirui's increasingly ugly face, and turned around and walked towards the garden outside Siyuan Hall.

Qin Xirui looked at his back and slapped the armrest of the seat angrily, seeing this, the same sect present also hurriedly comforted him, and Shen Yanan behind him also trembled and said: "Madam, don't worry, the second young master is still small-skinned after all, how can he be embarrassed to admit this kind of thing?" ”

Lu Lan watched Ziqiu's figure disappear into the garden outside Siyuan Hall, accompanied by the autumn breeze and falling leaves, and the back of the departure couldn't help but look so desolate. She felt a faint pain in her heart, and confided in Qin Xirui: "Mother, is it a bit too much for you to do this." Lu Lan took a deep breath and continued, "Anyway, Zi Biao and Yan Rou are still young, you can't be forced so hard, and you can give them a process of acceptance and adaptation." ”

Qin Xirui was stunned for a moment, as if his anger had not subsided, and he looked at Lu Lan and said, "I didn't say that Yanrou would marry now, aren't I in the process of adapting to them?" Your brother is reluctant, what do you say! ”

Lu Lan was speechless when she was asked, and she didn't dare to talk nonsense when she saw that her mother was also angry. In fact, she is a sister who naturally understands Ziqiu, he is unwilling today and will not be willing in the future, saying that adapting is just a pretext.

"Eldest Miss, the second young master has such a temperament, you have to persuade him." "Madam, don't be angry, take care of yourself, when the second young master grows up, he will understand your good intentions." "Madame, don't be angry."

Lu Lan glared at everyone, although these people are the same clan in the Lu Mansion, they are not the same clan in the five suits, now that the father is not in the mansion, the big and small matters in the Lu Mansion are all decided by the mother alone, this group of people has no ability, except for being able to pry favor with Qin Xirui, they are useless.

Qin Xirui didn't get up, so no one in the hall dared to move, only to see a white-haired old man sitting there take Lu Lan's words and said: "Miss, this marriage is a rule set by the ancestors, and it is related to the future of the entire family, the second young master is the eldest son, he has to shoulder this responsibility, even if he can't accept it now, then when he grows up, he will have to face it, and it will be more troublesome to talk about it then." ”

When the old man's words fell, there was another discussion in the lobby, some of them continued to comfort Qin Xirui, and some of them were talking about Zi Biao being ignorant and so on.

Lu Lan was also a little irritated by their quarrel in his heart, and shouted angrily: "How old is Zi Biao now, what marriage is not marriage, does he know what responsibility is?" Have you said enough of it? At the end of the voice, Lu Lan was already extremely angry, and his tone became a lot heavier, completely ignoring the seniority of some people.

"Lan'er must not be rude!" Qin Xirui was stunned and hurriedly stopped. She was also a little surprised, I was afraid that it was the first time in more than 20 years that she saw her daughter lose her temper, Lu Lan was gentle and knowledgeable since she was a child, this time she would actually offend the elders here for this matter, Qin Xirui's heart was beating rapidly, what happened to Lan'er?

Lu Lan took a deep breath and leaned back in the chair, seeing that his eyes were secretly a little red, don't turn his head to look to the side and don't know what he was thinking.

At this moment, the hall suddenly quieted down, and the Lu Mansion Tongzong on the right was also very embarrassed, which inexplicably made the eldest lady angry again, and no one said a word of gossip anymore.

At this moment, a little girl outside the door of Siyuan Hall ran in, this was Yin'er, Yin'er entered the lobby, first saluted Mrs. and the third young master, and then walked behind Lu Lan, and whispered a few words.

Lu Lan was shocked when she heard this, and looked at her, as if she didn't believe it, and her eyes were full of surprise and disbelief.
