Chapter 85: The First Entry into the Republic of China (5)
The Lin family, who was in a hurry to finish eating and went to greet the Lu family, couldn't care so much, and after eating a few bites, he went to the front hall again.
Chen Twelve returned to his yard with the food box, and ate the clean meal with Hongmeng, and Bi'er was startled when she came to collect the dishes and chopsticks: "Miss, you have such a good appetite today." ”
Chen Twelve Muran remembered that the original owner was a little girl who didn't know how to eat, and haha: "Ah, yes, the weather is good today, and the weather is good." ”
Hongmeng covered his mouth and snickered, you can talk nonsense.
Chen Twelve, who was full of food, rested for a while, pinched a little and went to the front hall.
At this time, the Lin family was entertaining the guests from the Lu family, and saw the Lin family sitting on the main seat, enthusiastic: "Ouch, this mother is really good, you can come as you say, how embarrassing it is to bring so many things." ”
The mother of the Lu family smiled reservedly: "Miss Chen has been engaged to marry our young master since childhood, so naturally we can't slack off, I don't know if Mrs. can make it convenient for the old man to see the eldest lady." ”
Lin raised his veil and said, "Ouch, this is not a coincidence, our eldest girl is not feeling well today, so——"
"Mom, when did I say I wasn't feeling well?" Chen Twelve's angry voice came from the front door, and when Lin and Lu's mother looked around, they saw a very delicate girl stepping in.
After entering the door, Chen Twelve first saluted the Lin family: "Hello little mother, I don't know if my little mother is listening to which slave and maid should be beaten, I have nothing to do, it's good." After speaking, he turned to the Lu family's mother: "This mother is very kind, and Twelve is here to give her mother a gift." ”
The mother of the Lu family looked at Chen Twelve in front of her with satisfaction, and replied: "The old body can't stand the etiquette of the eldest lady, the eldest lady is so slim, think about it, our old lady will also be satisfied." ”
Chen Twelve lowered his head shyly, but glanced at him defiantly when his eyes met the ghost-like Lin clan.
Lin shivered and pointed at Chen Twelve: "You, you, you're not-"
Chen Twelve opened his deer-like eyes: "Mom, what's wrong with me?" What are you watching me do? ”
Lin was about to make a difficulty, but suddenly felt a pain in his stomach as if he had been punched, holding his stomach, beads of sweat the size of beans oozed from his head, this pain made Lin unconsciously want to bend down to relieve it.
Chen Twelve stepped forward with concern and held Lin's arm, not letting her bow down, while saying, "Mom, what's wrong with you, oops, oops, Mom, don't slide down!" ”
The Lin family now doesn't even have the strength to be angry with Chen Twelve, so he can only be at the mercy of Chen Twelve, Chen Twelve hurriedly shouted to the maid: "Ouch, please ask the doctor, my little mother can't do it, hurry up, help my little mother to the bed!" ”
As he spoke, he handed the Lin family to the maid on the side, turned around and said to the Lu family's mother with a worried face: "This mother, I'm sorry to make you laugh, my little mother is usually in good health, and I don't know what's wrong today." The mother of the Lu family just smiled and expressed understanding.
At this time, Chen Fuyu, who had not seen the Lin family to call him for a long time, also came, and saw that there were only Chen Twelve and the Lu family's mother in the front hall, Chen Fuyu's face changed slightly, and he said to Chen Twelve: "Sister, where is my mother?" ”
Chen Twelve sneered in his heart, this little girl is not a fuel-efficient lamp: "Little mother was not feeling well just now, I asked the maid to help her down to rest, you can also accompany her." ”
Chen Fuyu waited for the opportunity to come to the Lu family easily, how could he let it go casually, if Chen Twelve and the Lu family's mother were left alone, then he wouldn't have a chance! Chen Fuyu said with a smile: "Sister, my mother is sick, I will entertain the Lu family's mother with you." ”
"Eh, this can't be done, now that my father is not at home, my mother is sick again, you must be filial to your mother as a daughter, I am your eldest sister, I will just come to these chores outside." Chen Twelve immediately refused.
Chen Fuyu was unwilling: "But-"
The mother of the Lu family spoke at this time: "The second lady should listen to the words of the eldest sister, so let's go and accompany Mrs. Chen." ”
Chen Fuyu reluctantly twisted the handkerchief and walked back step by step.
When Chen Fuyu left, Chen Twelve pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled at the Lu family's mother: "Let you see the smile, alas, the eldest sister is difficult to do." Hongmeng looked at Chen Twelve's melancholy face, and almost believed it.
The mother of the Lu family is the old man next to Mrs. Lu, she has lived for half her life and has never seen any demons and monsters, just helped Chen Twelve to speak is to see Chen Fuyu's thoughts, at this moment looking at Chen Twelve with a melancholy face, the mother of the Lu family also understands compassion: "Don't worry, eldest lady, life will only be better after marrying, the young master is very easy to get along with, and the lord and the lady will also treat you as their own." ”
It is also fate, Chen Twelve's mother and Lu Qin's mother were handkerchiefs, Mrs. Lu gave birth to Lu Qin and came to visit Mrs. Chen, who had just given birth to a child, looking at Yuxue's lovely Chen Twelve, Mrs. Lu immediately decided to marry the three-year-old Lu Qin and Chen Twelve, who was not full moon.
Lu Qin looked at the milk doll in his mother's arms and asked Mrs. Lu: "Mother, is this my future bride?" Mrs. Lu didn't know where Lu Qin learned this word, and nodded: "Yes, this is the bride after Qin'er, does Qin'er like it?" ”
Lu Qin nodded, stretched out his fat hand and touched Chen Twelve's little face, Chen Twelve giggled, Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Chen both said that these two children had fate.
After that, when Lu Qin was ten years old and Chen was twelve or seventeen years old, the two met once, it was at Lu Qin's tenth birthday banquet, Lin took Chen Twelve and Chen Fuyu to the banquet together, Lu Qin recognized Chen Twelve at a glance in front of a group of children, took Chen Twelve's hand and went back to his room.
During the Republic of China, the folk customs were open, and there was no longer much attention to the seven-year-old different seats, and when they saw Lu Qin pulling Chen Twelve back to their room, the adults didn't say anything, but Mrs. Lu looked at her face full of relief.
That year, ten-year-old Lu Qin took out a small wooden box from under his bed, and handed it to Chen Twelve, Chen Twelve opened it and saw that it was full of gold and jade things, although Chen Twelve's mother died early, but he also knew that other people's things could not be asked for casually, so he shook his head and pushed Lu Qin's box open: "I can't ask for it." ”
Lu Qin's little overlord was like a reluctant reluctance: "Why can't you ask for it, you are my future daughter-in-law, you can ask for it!" ”
The two of you pushed me and sent it for a while, and finally Lu Qin took out a jade carved rabbit from the box, solemnly put it on Chen Twelve's neck and said, "Take it well, don't drop it, I can find you with this rabbit in the future." ”
