Chapter 25: Lu Weizhang
After school, Jiang Ruofu followed Mr. Gu directly.
Mr. Gu waved his hand, and a handsome young man stepped forward and handed over the bookcase, Mr. Gu looked down in the man's bookcase, and finally took out a very worn-out looking book and stuffed it into Jiang Ruofu's arms.
Looking at her, he snorted coldly in his nose and blew his beard,
"It's a shame."
Jiang Ruofu didn't understand what Mr. Gu meant, but Mr. Gu immediately turned around and left.
The young man carrying the bookcase turned his head and glanced deeply at Jiang Ruofu before turning to leave.
The man's posture is tall, his eyebrows are handsome, and his demeanor is like a white jade pendant that has passed through a round of cold water, and his hair is all tied up, he is used to the appearance of those humble gentlemen in the book, but he is a little more calm, and he is calm and calm when facing Mr. Gu.
I don't know if it's Mr. Gu's scholar or a student.
Jiang Shuyun anxiously followed out, seeing that Jiang Ruofu was fine, she breathed a long sigh of relief, and saw that Jiang Ruofu was still holding a tattered book in his hand, Jiang Shuyun was surprised,
"This is given by Mr. Koo?"
Jiang Ruofu nodded.
Jiang Shuyun was overwhelmed with surprise.
It's really more popular than people.
She has been reading books with her husband for two years and she can't see how much her husband likes her, at most she doesn't blow her beard and stare at her, Ruofu actually took the ancient books given by Mr. Gu as soon as she came.
In the past two years, Mr. Gu has only given ancient books to two people.
I didn't expect Ruofu to become this third!
Jiang Shuyun took the ancient book from Jiang Ruofu's hand with envy, but he couldn't read the words on it clearly.
Some places have been spent, but what is lacking is not a little.
Jiang Ruofu glanced at the young man's back and said,
"Is that also Mr. Gu's student, but this son doesn't look like a student of the school."
Jiang Shuyun glanced at the back and said with a smile,
"Of course it's not a student, that's Mr. Xiao Gu, who teaches the piano, and he is Mr. Gu's eldest grandson."
Jiang Ruofu nodded,
"No wonder he doesn't look like a student or a scholar."
Jiang Shuyun's maid followed with a bookcase, panting and saying,
"Childe is waiting for you, don't delay, tomorrow Childe will accompany you to worship the god of flowers, you have to go back and prepare first."
Jiang Shuyun smiled apologetically,
"Then I'll go first, so as not to wait for my brother."
Jiang Ruofu nodded.
Jiang Shuyun walked outside the school hall and saw that the Jiang family's carriage was waiting outside, she lifted the curtain and entered the carriage, and the maid helped her carry her skirt so that she would not be moved by the wind.
Jiang Sang closed his eyes and leaned against the wall of the car and pretended to sleep,
"Why did it take so long to come?"
Jiang Shuyun stuck out his tongue while he couldn't see it, but his voice was well-behaved,
"After school, I went to ask my husband a question."
Jiang Sang opened his eyes, and Jiang Shuyun took a serious look at Jiang Sang.
Seeing that his eyes were shallow blue and black, Jiang Shuyun was surprised,
"Brother, didn't you sleep well last night?"
Jiang Sang raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, his Adam's apple slipped a little, and said lightly,
"Hmm."
Jiang Shuyun was speechless,
"You can't be having a nightmare, are you?"
Jiang Sang opened his eyes, his eyes were as secretive as deep,
"Let's go."
The coachman immediately set off on horseback.
Jiang Sang closed his eyes again.
If it's really a nightmare, that's fine.
ββ
When Jiang Ruofu went back, he didn't see Jiang Lanqian in the carriage.
Jiang Mo said curiously,
"Seventh sister, I heard that Mr. Gu asked you to endorse it, but the second sister didn't recite it?"
Jiang Ruofu nodded,
"It was so sudden."
If she hadn't seen the "Tokyo Menghualu" in Shizi's study before, she would only be kicked out of the punishment station like Jiang Lanqian today.
When she got out of school today, she was no longer in sight of Jiang Lan's potential outside the door.
Presumably reprimanded by Mr. Gu, his daughter's family couldn't hold their face, so they ran away early.
Such a face-saving reprimand is indeed unbearable for a thin-faced daughter's family.
Jiang Mo was puzzled,
"Hey, where is the second sister?"
"I've been waiting for her for so long, and she hasn't come yet."
The sound of the coachman is like a bell,
"The second miss took the Lu family's carriage and left, saying that the third miss and the seventh miss don't have to wait for her."
Jiang Ruofu frowned, and even Jiang Mo was puzzled,
"Which Lu family?"
Coachman's Road,
"The slave didn't know, it was the second miss's maid who came to say, the slave looked at the second miss as if she was on a son's carriage, the maid said that the second miss accidentally fell around the child's carriage, and the son saw that the second miss was limping and incapacitated, so he helped the second miss into his carriage and said that he would send the second miss back."
Jiang Mo didn't speak, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant for a moment.
Jiang Mo knows even if she is naΓ―ve, it is not suitable for lonely men and widows to live in the same room.
What's more, there is no relationship with no relatives and no reason.
If Jiang Lanqian was injured when the Lu Gongzi tripped and fell, the Gongzi surnamed Lu would just send her back.
But now she had fallen on her own, so she could get the maid to come and tell the coachman that she wanted to sit in someone else's carriage. That must have allowed the coachman to drive the carriage over to pick her up, why should she take a strange man's carriage?
Jiang Ruofu frowned, but didn't say anything,
"In that case, let's go."
The coachman answered and set off on horseback.
Jiang Lanqian sat beside Lu Weizhang, and Lu Weizhang looked worried,
"Is the girl's leg okay? Why don't you go straight to the hospital? β
Jiang Lan said softly,
"It's okay."
She sneaked a sneak peek at Lu Weizhang.
Lu Weizhang is the second son of Lu Shaofu, although he does not have any fame, he is extremely handsome and white.
Lu Weizhang also bent down at this moment to check her feet, caressed her ankles with warm fingertips, and said carefully,
"Are you alright?"
He looked at her in a gentle voice, as if there was still a smile, but the worry was not fake.
Jiang Lanqian couldn't help but reddened the roots of her ears,
"It's okay, Mr. Lu."
Lu Weizhang lowered his eyes and laughed lowly, and the low smile echoed in the cramped carriage, even if it didn't mean that, it sounded very charming.
He whispered,
"Your girl's family is the most delicate, you have to be careful not to hurt yourself."
He rubbed her ankles gently, the warm touch fainting a little.
He said softly,
"Did you hear that?"
Lu Weizhang looked up at her with seriousness in his eyes.
Jiang Lan nodded with red ears.
Lu Weizhang sat down, obviously it should have been unintentional, I don't know why, but Jiang Lanqian felt that he was so close as if he was deliberate, and the two of them were next to each other's shoulders.
Lu Weizhang looked at her sideways, with gentleness in his eyes,
"My sister is a girl from the Jiang family."
"I saw you two years ago, but my sister never recognized me, and then you started working in the school at the age of sixteen, I thought you were going to get married, and I couldn't listen to the class for a long time, and I was thinking about you getting married, and I regretted it."
Jiang Lanqian was a little surprised, her heart moved, and her palms couldn't help sweating.
The curtain of the car was blown up by the wind, and Jiang Lanqian's broken hair was blown up.
Lu Weizhang reached out and picked up her broken hair, and then looked at her with deep eyes,
"Sister, you're eighteen years old."
Jiang Lanqian nodded.
Lu Weizhang chuckled,
"I see."
The young man smiled warmly, showing his silver-white teeth, and his big eyes looked at her intently, and those eyes were gentle and deep, enough to suck the woman's soul away.
Jiang Lanqian was so nervous that her back was sweating.
When the carriage arrived at Jiangfu, the maid at the door came to help Jiang Lanqian, and Jiang Lanqian pretended to be sprained and walked slowly.
also pretended to look back inadvertently, and saw Lu Weizhang looking at her with the curtain of the car, his eyes like torches, just looking at her, his eyebrows and eyes gentle.
The flush that had finally faded on Jiang Lan's surface flushed again.
She turned her head away and didn't look at him again.
But the heart is excited.
He asked her if she was eighteen.
Although nothing was promised, the meaning was already clear.
When did Lu Gongzi start noticing her? She didn't even notice it.
He thought she was married, and he was sad for her for a long time.
At that time, she was sixteen years old, and he was only fifteen.
But now he's seventeen.
It's the age when you can talk about marriage.
Seeing Jiang Lanqian's figure disappear behind the vermilion door, Lu Weizhang lowered the curtain.
Coachman's Road,
"Childe, shall we go?"
Lu Weizhang closed his eyes and said casually,
"Wait."
After waiting for half an hour, Lu Weizhang opened his eyes,
"Let's go."
ββ
As soon as Jiang Ruofu came back, he received a letter from Wen Guqi.
It's already night, and now Qinghui Garden is different from usual, there are people on duty at night, not the time when you could climb over a wall and get in and out.
Jiang Ruofu thought about it for a long time, and finally went out from the main gate openly.
Jiang Boqi seemed to wish that Jiang Ruofu would not return at night.
When Jiang Ruofu asked to travel at night, he said with a smile,
"I heard that you were with Chen Gongzi last night?"
Jiang Ruofu raised his eyes in surprise.
Jiang Boqi said dissatisfied,
"You're dressed too plain today, dress up and go out again, otherwise you won't pay enough attention."
Jiang Ruofu was puzzled.
It stands to reason that even though her father very much wants her to marry into a powerful family, in the end, the Jiang family is also discussing marriage with the Wen family, and her father should not be so happy when he heard that she was with Chen Jing last night.
Jiang Boqi didn't explain, and asked the mother-in-law who was the best at grooming in the house to dress her up.
The mother-in-law dismantled Jiang Ruofu's hair and re-tied a bun that was so complicated that Jiang Ruofu couldn't understand how to comb it.
Although the shape of the bun was not complicated at first glance, it combed Jiang Ruofu for half an hour, and at the end, a long pearl jasper was inserted diagonally, and Jiang Ruofu only felt a sinking on his head.
The bead below was bigger than the Nanzhu of Zhu's Nanzhu pendant, but Jiang Ruofu couldn't recognize whether it was Nanzhu or Dongzhu on Bu Shao.
The hairpin is blue and white, and in the dancing candle flame, it looks more and more colorful.
And a few fine but not deliberate small hairpins dotted the hair.
The most complicated thing Jiang Ruofu has combed before is the fallen bun, but this kind of bun can be combed in a fallen bun even if it is dismantled.
The mother-in-law who was dressing looked at Jiang Ruofu's face, a little embarrassed, and she didn't know where to start for a while, Miss Seven's facial features were too perfect, and she didn't know where else to make up.
In the end, the mother-in-law took the eyebrow pencil and hooked Jiang Ruofu's eyebrows, which was originally a little heroic, neutralizing the soft and charming eyebrow sagging, and the whole person became more gentle and weak.
Jiang Ruofu's eyes are slender but not small, starting from the front of the eyes, the traces of the double eyelids slowly extend, getting bigger and bigger, and at the end of the eyes, they are like swallowtails, the eyelashes are heavy, the eyes are dark, and the eyes are clear and moving.
The face is just the size of a palm, with those slender eyes, which are pure and dusty, and it makes people tremble and pity at a glance.
The face itself, which is flawless and extremely white, is not powdered.
The mother-in-law worked hard to draw Jiang Ruofu in the direction of Chu Chu's moving.
picked up another box of begonia red lipstick, Jiang Ruofu subconsciously retreated a little, wanting to push it away,
"Don't."
But the mother-in-law let her hold her,
"Miss Seven, if others want to be so beautiful, they can't sleep and take care of themselves in the mirror every night, why do you think you will become more beautiful."
The mother-in-law quickly cut the mess and finished coating her, Jiang Ruofu sipped and sipped, wanting to wipe it off with a handkerchief, but Xiaoyu looked at her and said in amazement,
"Miss, it's pretty!"
Jiang Ruofu only felt very uncomfortable on his lips.
Even the eyebrows feel itchy.
The servant changed her into a pleated Ruyi moon skirt.
Everyone was amazed and flattered desperately.
Jiang Ruofu is like an ant on a hot pot, she is already half an hour late, presumably the son of the world is impatient.
She pursed her lower lip, and when she was sent to the carriage, she saw Jiang Lanqian running out of the mansion while everyone was welcoming her.
Jiang Ruofu wanted to get out of the carriage and take a look, but was stuffed into the carriage by her mother-in-law.
"Miss Seven, it's beautiful enough, you don't need to get it anymore."
Jiang Ruofu could only lift the curtain and watch Jiang Lan sneak away.
Her right hand unconsciously rotated on her left thumb, as if she were spinning a wrench.
What is the second sister doing when she runs out so late?
In the private room of Baijulou, Wen Guqi turned the rhino horn wrench in his hand.
The room was silent.
It's been half an hour, Jiang Ruofu didn't come, did something happen?
As soon as he thought about it, Jiang Ruofu pushed the door in, but he was wearing a vertebral hat.
Wen Guqi saw her coming, so he naturally picked up the upside-down teacup next to her and filled her with tea.
"Yesterday I was..."
Wen Guqi was stunned the moment he saw Jiang Ruofu lifting the curtain of the vertebral hat.
Jiang Ruofu said unnaturally,
"Dad thought that I came to see Chen Jing and asked my mother-in-law to dress me up like this, and in the future, when you are in Jiangfu, you may also be dressed up like this."
Wen Guqi's face returned to normal, and he didn't answer her words, but said,
"Chen Jing is indeed a reliable person, if you marry him, he will not let you compromise and become a concubine."
Wen Guqi looked up at her again and looked at her deeply, his Adam's apple moved, and he drank all the tea in the cup.
"Jiang Ruofu, are you willing to marry Chen Jing?"
Jiang Ruofu's right hand unconsciously rubbed the root of his left thumb.
Wen Guqi's eyes drooped, and he noticed her movements similar to his own.
Jiang Ruofu sighed,
"I'm afraid I can't choose."
Wen Guqi just looked at her,
"I'm just asking if you'd like to."
Jiang Ruofu lowered his head and said softly,
"Shizi, I'm not a child, it's not the age when I can go and not do this if I want to, if I marry Chen Jing, I believe he will be very good to me, my biological mother and eldest brother will be shaded, no longer have to be afraid, but my honey, arsenic, because I regard Chen Jing as a friend, I dare not involve him."
"On the trade-off, my wish doesn't really matter, as long as my father says he wants to marry, then he must marry. I didn't have much to ask for, I originally only wanted to accompany my aunt and brother, but now I am facing the Wen family's proposal and the sudden favor of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and now I have to marry. β
"I don't have anything to lose, and I won't be miserable or happy to take this step."
She looked at him, her eyebrows bent like the smoke of distant mountains, and her eyes were misty,
"Originally, I didn't plan to get married."
