Chapter 153: Marrying Wang Qin'er
At night, Ah Li just sent Wang Qin'er away, and then withdrew the dinner in the courtyard, and then returned to the house.
"Miss, I see, Aunt Song seems to have done it on purpose today," Ah Li took a cup of herbal tea and put it at the head of Lu Guanlan's bed, turned around and picked up scissors to cut the wick of the candle, and said.
Lu Guanlan smiled slightly and lay down on the bed, "She is naturally in a hurry, otherwise she wouldn't be in a hurry to find it." โ
Ah Li cut the wick of the candle, put down the scissors, and then turned around and tucked the quilt for Lu Guanlan.
"Come to think of it, Aunt Song will have to keep an eye on our yard in the future," Ah Li said, turning around and pulling the curtain on the bed.
Lu Guanlan closed his eyes.
Song Yuemei will naturally stare at her yard next, but Song Yuemei probably didn't expect that in just a few days, she already knew everything she wanted to know.
She didn't want to mess with Gong Yu, but who knew that it was not only Song Yuemei's mother and daughter who harmed her and her mother.
Since these people used her and her mother's blood to climb up step by step in the previous life, in this life, she personally pulled these people down one by one.
The next day, after Lu Bingyan went down, he changed his clothes and went to Wang's house.
Song Yuemei asked about Steward Zhao, and Steward Zhao only said that she didn't know.
Lu Jingzhu Cong Moyuan rushed to Nixuan Pavilion, saw that Song Yuemei was stunned, and stepped forward and said, "Auntie, I heard that Wang Qin'er came yesterday?" โ
Song Yuemei came back to her senses and looked at Lu Jingzhu, "What's the matter?" Don't get angry with me? โ
Lu Jingzhu stepped forward and sat down, "How can my daughter be angry with A-Niang, but I heard that my father just returned home today, so he changed his clothes and went to the Wang family, but I don't know why." โ
Song Yuemei was also a little puzzled.
Didn't Lu Guanlan's little slut say something yesterday?
She is just guessing now, whether the master wants to marry Wang Qin'er early, but think about it, Liu Yun'an's funeral period has not passed, according to Lu Guanlan's temperament, he will definitely not let Wang Qin'er pass the door early.
But if it weren't for that, what would the old man do at the Wang family at this time? If it's just for the sake of the affairs of the court, if there is anything that can't be talked about in the court, you have to go to the Wang's house.
In the afternoon, Lu Bingyan came back from Wang's house.
Song Yuemei heard the girl's report that as soon as Lu Bingyan returned home, she asked Steward Zhao to take someone out to buy things for the wedding ceremony.
Hearing this, Lu Jingzhu was also a little panicked, and hurriedly stood up, "A-Niang, did you say that your father is going to marry Wang Qin'er so soon?" โ
Song Yuemei calmed down, took a sip of the teacup, and said lightly: "No, if your father wants to marry Wang Qin'er at this time, it will be unjustifiable, and he will be virtuous." โ
said, looking at the girl on the side, "Lingxiang, did you send the letter you sent today?" โ
Lingxiang bowed, "The slave sent the letter early in the morning, and when I think about it, it has already arrived in the hands of the mother." โ
Song Yuemei nodded, "It's okay over there." โ
As long as Yun Concubine is there, as long as she has Yun Concubine's handle in her hand one day, then Yun Concubine will have to help her.
As he was talking, he saw Steward Zhao coming, saying that the master had prepared a family banquet in the dining hall and asked the aunts and ladies to go.
Song Yuemei said: "What about the eldest lady? But you have to go with you? โ
Steward Zhao said: "I have already gone to the eldest lady's courtyard, and the eldest lady said that she would come." โ
Song Yuemei nodded, "Okay, I know." โ
After that, he waved his hand to let Steward Zhao go back.
"A-Niang, what do you say my father is doing with this good family banquet? Let us all go," Lu Jingzhu still looked a little worried.
If her father marries Wang Qin'er at this time, then Wang Qin'er will help Lu Guanlan, then she may not even be able to go out in the future, and she will not be able to see His Royal Highness the Third Highness again, it will be even more difficult.
Besides, when Lu Guanlan saw her talking to the Third Highness last night, he must have been jealous, and he would definitely obstruct her affairs with the Third Highness.
In this way, it really can't be done.
Looking at the worry on Lu Jingzhu's face, Song Yuemei said slowly: "What's the hurry, your father is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, no matter what, he doesn't dare to let everyone know, he will marry a newcomer without caring about his wife's funeral." โ
Lu Jingzhu nodded when he heard this, but the melancholy on his face did not diminish at all.
In the peach orchard, Lu Guanlan changed into light clothes, and asked Ah Li to bring a plate of snacks, and then slowly went to the canteen.
On the way, I saw Zhou Susu as if he was waiting for him, and as soon as he saw him passing, Zhou Susu came forward.
"Miss, there is something about the concubine, I want to tell you," Zhou Susu bowed slightly towards Lu Guanlan.
Lu Guanlan smiled, "What's the matter with the third aunt, you still have to wait for me like this, my yard is there, when did you say it?" โ
Zhou Susu looked left and right, "I'm afraid it's not good to go to the eldest lady in the concubine to tell it, if Aunt Song knows about it, she will definitely know that the concubine told you." โ
Lu Guanlan smiled lightly, "Then the third aunt will tell me, what is the matter?" โ
Zhou Susu approached Lu Guanlan's ear and said in a low voice: "Today, Aunt Song sent a letter to the palace. โ
Lu Guanlan turned his head to look at Zhou Susu, "How did the third aunt know?" โ
Zhou Susu smiled, "The concubine has been letting Yu'er keep an eye on Aunt Song's whereabouts these days, yesterday Aunt Song came out of the eldest lady's courtyard, and told Lingxiang to deliver the letter today, and today the concubine asked Yu'er to follow Lingxiang, and sure enough, I saw Lingxiang go out of the house early in the morning and went to the palace gate." โ
Lu Guanlan smiled and bowed his head, "The third aunt has a heart." โ
With that, he continued to the dining hall.
Zhou Susu saw that Lu Guanlan was so bland, so he caught up and stepped forward, "What kind of means do you want to use when you come to Aunt Song, didn't the eldest lady take precautions earlier?" โ
Lu Guanlan stopped and turned around and said, "Some people, naturally, can't be prevented. โ
When the words fell, Lu Guanlan no longer paid attention to Zhou Susu and walked straight away.
Zhou Susu was stunned, but he looked puzzled.
She is now helping Lu Guanlan, and she also knows that if she doesn't rely on Lu Guanlan in the future, when the new lady enters the door, their mother and daughter will be even more unhappy.
If Lu Guanlan can be asked to trust himself again, the way forward will not be too bad.
Besides, she has no hope for Lianqing now, and she doesn't care about her anymore, as long as Lianhua can still promise a good family, it will not be in vain for her to help Lu Guanlan.
After walking away, Ah Li said softly: "I don't know what the third aunt is having, do we want to believe the words of the third aunt?" โ
Lu Guanlan smiled: "Believe, how not to believe." โ
"But the third aunt also bit the young lady in the past, and the slave maid was worried about ยทยทยทยทยทยท" There was a hint of worry on Ah Li's face.
Lu Guanlan said: "I believe it, and I don't believe it." She told me this, but it was also for Lu Lianhua, thinking that it would be better to live in the mansion in the future, but if she really asked her to do anything for me, naturally she couldn't. โ
Ah Li knew that her young lady had the most ideas, so she nodded, "Miss is measured. โ
In the dining hall, Lu Bingyan turned around for the first time.
Seeing that Lu Guanlan was coming, he smiled and beckoned Lu Guanlan to sit down beside him.
Lu Guanlan ignored it and still sat far away.
Not long after, Song Yuemei and Zhou Susu also came with their respective daughters.
After Steward Zhao put the dishes on the table, Lu Bingyan said happily: "Yesterday's palace banquet, I heard that the Jingzhu Dance was famous in Kyoto, and I wanted to come, and it was also the favorite of the nobles in the palace." โ
Lu Jingzhu smiled when he heard this, "What does the father say, the daughter can't be compared with the big sister, the big sister followed the queen mother yesterday and didn't leave a step." โ
Lu Bingyan nodded with a smile, and then took the wine glass, "Actually, I called you here today to tell you that at the beginning of next month, I will marry the eldest lady of the Wang family. โ
Lu Jingzhu's face changed when he heard this, and he looked at Song Yuemei suddenly.
Song Yuemei had a smile on her face, as if she hadn't heard Lu Bingyan's words at all, "What the master says is what it is." โ
Lu Bingyan saw that Song Yuemei had no objection, and couldn't help nodding, "Speaking of which, Yun'an's mourning period is not over, I shouldn't marry a newcomer at this time, it's just that yesterday Guanlan also said that the family is not good for a long time without a master's mother, she also misses her mother, and wants to have a mother to take care of herself, I just thought, you girls are all young, and you should have a mother to suffer." Since Guanlan feels like this, then I should also fulfill your feelings as children. โ
Lu Jingzhu glanced at Lu Guanlan, and saw that Lu Guanlan was still that light and breezy appearance, and only cared about eating.
Zhou Susu looked at Song Yuemei and then at Lu Guanlan.
The two of them didn't say anything, and she naturally couldn't say anything, so she smiled and raised her glass and said, "The concubine is here, so I congratulate the master." โ
Lu Bingyan laughed, and also raised his wine glass and drank it all.
At this time, I heard Song Yuemei say: "I just don't know, can you know about this outside?" โ
When Lu Bingyan heard this, his brows furrowed, "What do you mean by this?" โ
Song Yuemei hurriedly put down her chopsticks and bowed her head with a smile, "The master misunderstood, the concubine was thinking, after all, the lord is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, although this matter is all about the eldest lady's desire to care for her mother, but in the end, it should not be too lively, otherwise, if it is transmitted to the court, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to the master." โ
Lu Bingyan was stunned when he heard this.
He heard Lu Guanlan say yesterday that he didn't mind marrying Wang Qin'er as soon as possible, but he was full of joy, but he didn't expect this.
Indeed, now that he is being reused by His Majesty, if he still commits a taboo in the official department of etiquette, then I am afraid that those who are dissatisfied with him in the court will be impeached by him.
In this way, the gains outweigh the losses.
At this time, Lu Guanlan drank the last mouthful of soup in the bowl, put down the bowl, and raised his eyes to look at Song Yuemei, "Aunt Song is really thoughtful. โ
Song Yuemei turned her head and smiled at Lu Guanlan, "The eldest lady has an overreputation, and the concubine is also for the sake of the lord and our Lu family." โ
Lu Guanlan couldn't help but sneer in his heart. It's a good one for the sake of the Lu family.
Not long after her mother passed away in her previous life, Song Yuemei pestered Lu Bingyan to carry herself to her mother, and now she will say that she thinks about the Lu family.
Thinking of this, Lu Guanlan said: "Having said that, it doesn't seem appropriate to say this from Aunt Song's mouth. โ
Song Yuemei curled her lips, "What do you mean by this?" โ
