After a while, Lu Huasheng nodded solemnly and said: "In the past few days, the master has returned to his hometown on leave, and before leaving, he asked me to buy some pen, ink, paper and inkstone for him, so that he can use it when he comes back." It just so happens that my sister knows a lot about this, so why don't my sister go out with me today to choose. ”

Lu Guanlan smiled slightly, and bowed his head, "Yes, second brother." ”

When Song Yuemei heard that Lu Guanlan was going out again, she was about to turn her head to go to Lu Bingyan of the study ward.

But I heard that my second son also went with him.

couldn't help frowning, and asked the girl who came back to report: "Did you really see the second young master going out with the eldest lady?" ”

The maid nodded hurriedly, "The slave and maid have indeed seen it with their own eyes, and they dare not deceive their aunt." ”

Song Yuemei thought for a moment, and then asked, "Then do you know what is the reason why the second young master left the mansion with the eldest lady today?" ”

The maid said: "Qingfu next to the second young master didn't go with him, so the slave asked Qingfu, Qingfu said, today the eldest lady took a snack to visit the second young master in the courtyard of the second young master, the second young master was thinking of helping the master buy pen and ink, thinking that the eldest lady usually needs to use, and he knows which one is the best, so he asked the eldest lady to go with him to take a look." ”

Song Yuemei listened, but always felt that things were not so simple.

Watson, who has a stuffy gourd-like temperament, never messes with the yin in the mansion on weekdays, although he knows that she has no good face with Lu Guanlan, but he doesn't know what she is doing behind her back.

Now that she is suddenly involved with Lu Guanlan, although she is not worried that Lu Guanlan can get something out of Watson's mouth, she is a little worried that Watson will be used by Lu Guanlan because he is too close to Lu Guanlan.

Thinking of this, Song Yue Meiwen, "Have you sent someone to keep an eye on it?" ”

The maid nodded, "The slave has already let the people in our courtyard follow." ”

Song Yuemei nodded.

At this time, I saw Lu Jingzhu coming in from outside.

Seeing that Song Yuemei was talking to the girl, she bowed slightly to Song Yuemei, and then sat down on the side.

"Okay, let's go down first," Song Yuemei saw that Lu Jingzhu was coming, so she asked the maid to retreat.

After the maid left, Lu Jingzhu asked: "A-Niang, I also heard that the second brother went out of the house with Lu Guanlan, and you are also for this, right?" ”

Song Yuemei took the teacup, put it down for a moment, and raised her eyes to look at Lu Jingzhu, "You said, why did your second brother take Lu Guanlan out of the house?" ”

If Lu Guanlan leaves the house alone, she can still say in front of the master, and when Lu Guanlan comes back, she will inevitably be reprimanded again.

But Watson was there, so she didn't have much to say.

Otherwise, if she really just went out to buy pen and ink, then when she said this, the master thought that she had arranged it.

Lu Jingzhu didn't think as much as Song Yuemei, and only said: "My daughter thinks that the second brother may have been deceived by Lu Guanlan, otherwise Lu Guanlan would have nothing to do with the second brother." ”

Song Yuemei was stunned when she heard this.

Yes, she didn't expect that Watson was so soft, he must have been tricked out by Lu Guanlan's girl.

As for why, it's easier to guess.

It must be that Lu Guanlan wants to leave the house on his own, but thinking about it now, it is not timely, so he borrowed Watson's reason.

Thinking of this, Song Yuemei slapped the table.

She actually miscalculated, she never expected that Lu Guanlan, a cheap girl, would dare to hit her second brother with an abacus.

Lu Guanlan took Ah Li out of the house after Lu Huasheng, and the two rode in the same carriage.

Because he was with Lu Huasheng, Ah Li walked slowly by the carriage.

"Although the two of us said that it was out, my aunt will also feel that we are going out of the house like this, it is too coincidental, and I will feel that you have done something to me," Lu Huasheng is a sensible and clear-eyed person, since he agreed to this matter, when he left the house, he has thought about the next things clearly.

He also knows his aunt and knows what his aunt will think.

Lu Guanlan smiled and said, "Aunt Song, why didn't you realize that I was doing a lot of things?" ”

Lu Huasheng didn't feel that Lu Guanlan said this deliberately.

In his opinion, it is indeed true.

Lu Huasheng said again: "But if my aunt says something in front of my father, won't you be reprimanded again?" ”

Lu Guanlan said: "Second brother, isn't this you?" ”

Lu Huasheng was stunned, but he still didn't understand.

Lu Guanlan sighed and explained: "As long as the second brother is here, Aunt Song will definitely not blow any wind in front of her father, and if she is afraid, it will also affect you, the second brother." ”

Lu Huasheng suddenly realized when he heard this, but he was not annoyed, but smiled: "You, looking at this smile, but I didn't think that you still had such thoughts." Look at what you said to me today, if you are a man, if you are in the court, you are used to perceiving people's hearts, and you can move forward the most. ”

Lu Guanlan smiled and said nothing.

Insight into people's hearts? It's ridiculous to say, if she really has insight into people's hearts, she wouldn't have been able to see Cheng Ye's use of her in her previous life, and she wouldn't have seen the vicious heart of Song Yuemei's mother and daughter.

In this life, she may have lived too casually, so she was so wanton.

Think about it, if it weren't for the news of her mother's death, she would almost have been lost in the comfort of this life.

At that time, she didn't promise Li Duan, so she thought the same way.

She was afraid that because of the pleasure of this life, she would forget the suffering and humiliation she had suffered in her previous life.

People are like this, and after a long time, they will always forget their troubles.

So she reminds herself every day, reminding herself to remember what Song Yuemei did to her and her mother, reminding her to remember that Lu Jingzhu once made Cheng Ye rip off her heart, and reminding Cheng Ye of her hypocrisy and betrayal in the past.

Only by remembering it all the time, can she not forget this unforgettable hatred because of momentary pleasure.

After a short time, the two arrived at Wen'an Fang.

Lu Huasheng asked the carriage to stop at the entrance of Fangshi, and then took Lu Guanlan out of the carriage.

instructed the coachman to wait at Fangkou, and then entered Fang City with Lu Guanlan.

In front of a tea stall, Lu Huasheng stopped and said, "I'm waiting here, you go and come back quickly." ”

Lu Guanlan smiled and bowed his head at Lu Huasheng, then turned his head and walked towards the Chengmo Courtyard in the depths of the workshop with Ah Li.

As soon as Lu Guanlan's figure left, Lu Huasheng noticed that a figure on the side also flashed by.

Then he got up and grabbed the man, "Wangfu? What are you doing here? ”

Cheng Mo knew that Lu Guanlan would definitely come today, so he asked Chu Ling to prepare tea and fruit snacks early.

Ziyuan looked at this posture on the side, and couldn't help but whisper to Chu Ling on the side: "I don't know, I thought we were setting up a poetry banquet today." ”

Chu Ling was carrying Nan Sheng Zhai's dim sum out and putting it on the table, and when she heard this, she glared at Ziyuan, "Be careful that Your Highness plucked out your tongue." ”

Now that there is news about Miss Lu outside, I don't know if Miss Lu will come today.

If they come, then His Highness will naturally be happy, if they don't come, if they say a few more words, it will be to sprinkle salt on His Highness's wounds.

As he was talking, he heard a knock at the door.

Ziyuan hurriedly turned his head to open the door.

Chu Ling also hurriedly put down the snacks, turned around and went to the backyard to call His Royal Highness to come out.

Ziyuan didn't think that this was on the cusp, and it was just that Miss Lu dared to go out, and she was generously dressed in this young lady's clothes.

Seeing that Ziyuan was stunned, Ah Li coughed lightly on the side, "Your Highness is here today?" ”

Ziyuan came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly welcomed the two of them into the door, and said: "Those who are here, our Highness is naturally here, Miss Lu will wait in the front hall for a while, and our Highness will come immediately." ”

Ziyuan's words changed as he spoke, and he always felt that there was a little deliberateness.

Lu Guanlan saw the melon and fruit snacks placed in the front hall, and understood why Ziyuan said this.

Thinking about it, I sighed in my heart.

If she hadn't asked Cheng Mo to investigate this matter for her earlier, she wouldn't have come to him like this now.

Cheng Mo heard Chu Ling's report that Lu Guanlan was coming, so he got up from his couch and wore off half of his shoes.

Chu Ling smiled on the side, and then remembered Concubine Xian's instructions, so she coughed lightly on the side.

Cheng Mo's body stiffened, and he felt out of shape, and immediately returned to his former calmness, turned his head and asked, "Have you arrived in the front hall?" ”

Chu Ling bowed, "It's the door called by Miss Ali, the slave and maid heard the sound and came to invite His Highness, Ziyuan went to open the door, and estimated that he should have sat down in the hall." ”

Cheng Mo nodded, and then went out to meet her.

But thinking about it again, there is no shortage of people in this courtyard who are concubines, if they are asked by their concubines, I am afraid that they are not looking for Lu Guanlan.

Thinking of this, Cheng Mo heard Chu Ling: "You say, why don't I go out later?" ”

Chu Ling smiled, "Your Highness, rest assured, Concubine Xian will not blame." ”

Her words also made her two highnesses feel at ease.

Only His Royal Highness didn't understand Concubine Xian's intentions, so she didn't snub Miss Lu because of Niangniang's advice.

If this displeases Miss Lu, I don't know how many days Her Royal Highness will have to worry about it.

Cheng Mo was just worried that the concubine would not be able to explain it, but now when he heard Chu Ling say this, he suddenly felt relieved, smiled and walked towards the front hall.

Chu Ling looked behind her and shook her head.

Speaking of which, His Royal Highness is really becoming more and more like a child.

In the past, the strategy and courage were outstanding, and when something happened, he was always calm and calm.

But since he got to know Miss Lu, His Royal Highness is easy to think about everything, and he can't let go of his hands and feet to do things.

After all, as soon as it comes to Miss Lu's matter, His Royal Highness will be divided.

Thinking of this, Chu Ling sighed in her heart. If His Royal Highness and Miss Lu were both young ladies and sons of ordinary people, I am afraid that there would not be so many things.

As soon as Cheng Mo arrived in the front hall, he saw Lu Guanlan drinking tea and eating snacks happily.

He didn't seem to care about coming from the backyard.

I heard Ziyuan suddenly say: "I've seen the Second Highness." ”

Lu Guanlan turned his head and saw that Cheng Mo was coming, so he put down the tea cup and snacks, got up and saluted: "The folk girl has seen the Second Highness." ”

Cheng Mo smiled, waved his hand to excuse Lu Guanlan, and then sat down.

After looking at Lu Guanlan, it was a little strange to see that she was wearing young lady's clothes like this.

Lu Guanlan acts for convenience, and it is common for him to wear men's clothes.

But today, on the cusp of such a storm, he dared to come out like this, but he really couldn't guess what she thought.

Lu Guanlan didn't have the heart to think about what the people around him thought, and only focused on what Cheng Mo said in his letter.

Then he got straight to the point and said, "Second Highness, where is the beggar now?" ”
