Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Patriarch of the Ancestral House

She and Luo Yingxue were very close, and they fell from the position next to each other, and no one could see who they fell from.

Luo Yingxue looked at the letter handed over by Luo Shuangyi with a blank face, and subconsciously denied it: "It's not mine." ”

The old lady saw the things in Luo Shuangyi's hand at a glance, her eyes flashed, and she said in a deep voice: "What kind of letter, take it and I'll take a look!" ”

Luo Shuangyi was stunned, subconsciously turned sideways to cover the letter, and denied: "Sister, put it away!" ”

"Yi'er, bring the letter." This time, the old lady's voice was even cold.

Luo Shuangyi took the letter, and his face was embarrassed: "Grandmother, this is my sister's letter, if you want to read it, I'm afraid you have to ask your sister's consent." ”

Luo Yingxue was about to say that it was just a letter, and she could read it if she wanted to read it, but thinking of the things Luo Shuangyi had done to her before, as well as this letter that appeared inexplicably, she was afraid that there was a trap, so she stepped forward and snatched the letter from Luo Shuangyi's hand.

"Grandmother, it's just something that Xue'er writes and plays with when she has nothing to do, nothing to see!"

When the old lady saw her appearance, she became more and more sure that there was something in the letter, stared at her with a cold face, and her voice sank completely: "Take it!" ”

This cold drink made Luo Yingxue even more frightened, and the grandmother next to the old lady stepped forward and pulled out the letter and presented it directly to the old lady.

The old lady took the letter, and when she saw the contents of it, she slapped the table angrily on the spot: "Come on, drag her down for me, and hit twenty boards!" ”

When Luo Yingxue heard that the old lady was going to punish the board, her face turned pale: "Grandmother, Xue'er was wronged, what mistake did Xue'er make, why did you hit Xue'er's board?" ”

The old lady panted angrily: "You still have the face to ask about the good things you have done?" You just don't want to see your sister like this, and you want to ruin her reputation? You wrote that letter at the door today, right? ”

Luo Yingxue was just about to open her mouth to deny it, but was interrupted by the old lady: "You don't have to be in a hurry to deny it, don't think that people don't know what you've done these days." The handwriting on the letter is yours, if you don't recognize it, how about I find a handwriting gentleman to compare? ”

These words completely blocked Luo Yingxue's retreat to prove her innocence.

"Someone! Drag it out! ”

"Wait a minute!"

Luo Shuangyi stepped forward, helped the old lady breathe, and said softly: "Grandmother, Xue'er is still young, she has done something wrong, and she should indeed be punished, but she is a woman after all, the twenty boards are too heavy, if there is a scar on her body, it will not be her grandmother who will be distressed in the future?" ”

After all, it is her granddaughter, where is the old lady willing to really play the board, but she was angry just now before she said such a thing, but the water that spilled out of the words was difficult to collect, and she was regretting how to take it back, Luo Shuangyi's words gave her a step.

"Then Yiyi'er, how should I be punished?"

Luo Shuangyi looked at Luo Yingxue, her face was pale, as if she was really frightened, and sighed: "Grandmother might as well punish my sister for copying scriptures to nourish her heart." ”

"Okay, just do as you say!" The old lady patted Luo Shuangyi's hand, her eyes full of relief.

After Luo Shuangyi came out of the old lady's yard, he went directly to Luo Yingxue's yard.

"What are you here to do? Don't think I'll thank you if you intercede for me! Now, Luo Yingxue naturally knows that the letter was Luo Shuangyi's doing.

Luo Shuangyi sneered: "What can I do?" If you didn't write that letter to insult my innocence, how could you end up with these punishments? ”

She looked at Luo Yingxue, and her voice gradually sank: "Luo Yingxue, don't think that I don't know what you did to me, you are my sister, I don't want Luo Wangfu to lose his harmony because of you and my sisters, but if you are obsessed and don't come to your senses, you will attack me......"

Her hand gradually fell on Luo Yingxue's shoulder, and her calm and powerful voice pressed towards Luo Yingxue like a heavy stone: "Since I can let my grandmother take back these twenty boards today, I can let it fall on you again." Unbelief...... You can try it and see if your delicate body can withstand these twenty boards! ”

Satisfied to see Luo Yingxue's pale face trembling, Luo Shuangyi turned around and went back to Wushuang Courtyard, this little kid just owes a lesson!

——

"What's going on out there, so noisy?" The old lady was lying on a carved wooden bed of red sandalwood, awakened by the noise in the courtyard.

The grandmother who was waiting at the door hurriedly pushed the door and walked in: "Go back to the old lady, it's someone from the ancestral house." ”

The old lady's worried eyes began to regain clarity little by little, and she stretched out her hand and stretched out the tent: "Quick, help me up!" ”

Mama hurriedly stepped forward, helped the old lady up, and began to freshen up.

The old lady sat in front of the dresser, letting the grandmother behind her carefully comb her hair, looking at the wrinkled face in the mirror, and had to sigh that people were really old.

"That's too fancy, wear this today." The old lady handed an emerald hairpin on the table to the grandmother behind her, and her tone paused slightly, "Who are the people here?" ”

Mama combed the last strand of the old lady's hair, and inserted the hairpin into the bun: "The old slave heard the person in front of him mention it, it seems that he is the patriarch of the ancestral house, and there are a few young strong men around him, and there is nothing else." ”

Seeing that the old lady didn't speak, Mama continued: "I heard that the bandits in the Mocheng area have been more fierce recently......

The old lady's eyes flashed: "Let's go, go to the main hall, talk to the people of Wushuang Courtyard, and let Yi'er come to the main hall for dinner in a while." ”

"Hey!"

Mama took the order, and the old lady was willing to let the eldest lady contact the people on the other side of the ancestral house, which showed that she really recognized her.

As soon as the old lady walked to the main hall, Luo Shuangyi also arrived.

As soon as he stepped into the door, a shrill voice came into Luo Shuangyi's ears: "Is the old lady okay lately?" ”

The old lady looked at each other coldly and sat directly at the dining table: "A handful of old bones, quite tough." ”

"This is Yi'er, right? I haven't seen you for a year, and it's getting more and more moving! Luo Shuangyi looked up, and Luo Hongtai's ravine-ridden old face had a pair of shrewd eyes that were as unpleasant as his voice.

The original owner didn't like this patriarch very much, and every year he asked for a lot of money from the Luo Wangfu by virtue of the identity of the patriarch, but the old lady remembered the old love and refused to part with the people in the ancestral house, so she dragged such a big burden.

Luo Shuangyi bent over and saluted, called out to the patriarch grandfather, and the old lady pulled her to sit down: "If you have anything to say, let's eat first." ”

This meal, eating extremely quietly, Luo Hongtai really didn't say a word, according to previous experience, Luo Shuangyi knew that this time, I was afraid that he would come to ask for money again.

After finishing the meal, Luo Hongtai said the purpose of the trip: "This year's harvest is not good, the people in the ancestral house are not having a good time, where is like an old lady, living in this prosperous capital, every day big fish and meat have to be served." ”

Luo Shuangyi listened quietly on the side, she didn't know if the lives of others were good or not, but the people of the Luo family, with the identity of Lord Luo, had purchased a lot of land in Mocheng, and there was also silver from the Luo Palace.

No matter how bad this day is, how bad can it be? It's just that I want to get a little more oil and water.

There are so many excuses every year, and the old lady has long been tired of hearing it, so she waved her hand and said, "Okay, I'll ask the prince to send you this year's silver in a while." ”

After Luo Hongtai heard this, a smile immediately appeared on his face: "It's still the old lady who misses the old love!" ”

The old lady had a calm face, remembered what Mama said when she was dressing, and said in a slightly cold tone: "I heard that there are bandits in Mocheng this year, and the people of the palace will not go to worship the ancestors this year." ”

Luo Shuangyi listened to the old lady's words, and only felt that this Luo Hongtai would definitely not agree, they would just wait for the ancestors to make a lot of money every year.

Sure enough, as soon as Luo Hongtai heard this, he immediately exploded: "How can this be done!" This ancestor worship is a rule set in previous years, how can you say that if you don't go, you won't go? If it weren't for the blessing of the Luo family's ancestors, would your son have been able to climb to today's high position? You can't forget your roots after you become rich, after all, you are also from the Luo family. ”

"I won't cancel this ancestor worship, as a descendant of the Luo family, how can I ignore the ancestral teachings in vain because of some bandits? If you Luo Wangfu don't go to Mocheng this year, in the future, there will be no need for your family's name on this genealogy! ”

"You!" The old lady was so angry by Luo Hongtai's words that her blood was churning, but this expulsion of the genealogy was not for fun, she held her breath fiercely, and then she responded, "Luo Wangfu will go!" ”

——

Eastern Suburbs Racecourse.

Lu Huaiyu sat boredly on the viewing platform, his eyes fell on the court, but he seemed to penetrate the people on the court and look into the distance.

"Hey......" King Chu sighed, and looked at Lu Huaiyu beside him, who didn't know how long he had been in a daze, "Seeing these people on the field, I miss Miss Luo's amazing demeanor on the field more and more." ”

Lu Huai's stiff body finally moved, turned to look at him slightly, and a cold light shot out: "What, you also have a crush on her?" ”

The king of Chu stiffened, so strong and murderous!

Knowing that Lu Huaiyu has been urged by countless people to withdraw from marriage these days, King Chu held back a smile and shook his head: "Am I such a blind person? Don't worry, Miss Naluo, I will never fight with you! ”

Lu Huaiyu stopped talking again, and the King of Chu found out that since Lu Huaiyu became interested in the eldest lady of the Luo family, this word has become less and less.

"Hey, haven't you seen Miss Naluo for a long time?" King Chu's eyes flashed, and he pretended not to care, "I heard that the people from King Luo's Mansion are going back to Mocheng to worship their ancestors, and someone is afraid that they won't be able to see their sweetheart for a long time!" ”

Lu Huaiyu's eyes flashed slightly, worship ancestors?

His eyes fell a little dark, and the afterglow in his eyes turned a thousand times, what did this have to do with her?

Seeing that Lu Huaiyu hadn't turned the corner yet, the King of Chu reminded in a good voice: "Father is having a headache about the bandits in Mocheng, why don't you take it?" ”
