Chapter 181: Envy, Jealousy, and Hatred

"Although this family matter is decided by my father, but in my heart, I always feel ashamed of my sister, so I came to make amends to the third sister today."

Lu Man and Dian Cui looked at each other again, saying that they were here to apologize, but it turned out that they were here to show off.

"If my sister apologizes for this matter, then there is no need, I have nothing to do with the Huang family, and whether he marries a wife or concubine in the future, it will be their Huang family's business."

Lu Man said this lightly, but he was still uncomfortable in his heart, not for anything else, just because his father had forgotten the grievances he had suffered, and forgave the Huang family like this.

"It's still my sister who is magnanimous," Lu Ting sighed and said: "No matter what, my sister owes the third sister a lot in this life, and she can only repay her in the next life." ”

"The fourth lady is only twenty-eight years old now, and she is still growing in her life, what to talk about in the next life, what can be done in this life may as well do it first." Her pretentious appearance, Diancui only thinks that she hates it more than Qu Huashang!

Originally, these women in the capital, Dian Cui saw them all so cool and generous, and even the delicate and willful temper of the eldest lady was also fair-minded, even if Lu Man was a little arrogant, when it came to serious things, women would not let them shave their eyebrows.

Only this Miss Lu Si is clearly from a famous family, but she is full of childishness, which makes people tired!

Hearing Diancui say this straightforwardly, Lu Man burst out laughing. In the past, at home, she was always dominated by these four sisters in words, but now that Lu Ting has met Diancui, she can be regarded as an opponent.

saw that Lu Ting was embarrassed, but he still had to hold the pomp of his daughter, his face was red and white, and he was very good-looking.

This is no better than Lu Mansion, where because of Master Lu's favor, everyone is polite to this fourth lady. Here, Luhmann is now at the top of the list. If she puts that arrogant lady on the shelf again, no one will be willing to play with her.

Lu Ting is not stupid, she has seen it for a long time, and she understands that it is a mistake to use the Huang family to make the third sister unable to raise her head at her in-law's house.

So he stopped saying those unfortunate words, and led the conversation to this year's "stove meeting".

The "Stove Meeting" in October is a big festival in winter. Every year, the Lu family will make a big deal and invite all close friends and relatives. Today, Master Lu instructed Lu Ting to come to Haosheng to apologize to her third sister, and personally invited the Guifu family to participate in the Lu family's "stove party".

That is, what Master Lu meant, Lu Man didn't dare to disobey, and asked his sister-in-law Diancui softly. Diancui also participated in the stove party in previous years, when she was in Qianjia Village, but Qian Laosi's family had a meat meal together, but she had nothing to do; When I came home, it was much grander. It was a lively day of braziers and test furnaces. After that, no matter how the master and his subordinates put on new clothes, the old lady would invite a troupe to sing a few good plays. After that, those who have talents in the house in the piano, dance, song and music can all go on stage to show off, which can be said to be the master and servant having fun together.

Thinking about it like this, then the Lu family is even more solemn and annoyed.

Diancui nodded in agreement, and returned: "Please rest assured, Miss Four, when the time comes, my sister-in-law and my two brothers will visit." ”

"Then it's settled." Lu Ting smiled slightly.

The three women were all smiling and eating tea, and each had their own thoughts.

Suddenly, outside, a person came in like a gust of wind, but he didn't dare to enter the inner room, but only stood outside the screen, and said loudly:

"Sister-in-law, can my sister be here? Recently, I found some strange ones from the dock warehouse and sent them to my sister-in-law and sister to have a look. ”

This voice is smiling, revealing the slight strength and vitality of this prince in the capital, as if it is like the sun outside, only penetrating this screen.

Diancui heard that it was the second brother, and heard that it was a strange thing, and when he was happy, he forgot that there were others present, and pushed the screen aside when he collapsed.

"Second brother, what's the good stuff? Come and check it out with us! Dian Cui smiled and ran to the second brother.

"You slow down, so startled, don't alarm our sister-in-law." Because they are all members of their own family, Gui Zhongqing has always been a fool, and they are all intimate when they speak.

Lu Man covered his mouth and smiled, and said, "I'm not a muddy person, how can I be so easily shocked." After speaking, it was not as good as Diancui, and he looked forward at the box, and only sat upright as before.

Only then did Gui Zhongqing realize that there were still people in the house, not cramped, nor looking, but only generously sang a promise to Lu Ting's position, and said: "I don't know if there is a guest, Zhongqing is rude." ”

After speaking, he raised his head and only looked at his sister-in-law, waiting for her to command.

As soon as Lu Ting returned to Zhongqing and came in, he only felt a little dizzy, this man's face was not fairer than that of the women in the capital, he was a shiny bronze, tall and thin, like a vigorous pine tree. When he spoke, he smiled with his eyebrows and eyes, and his gestures were dashing, and his whole body seemed to be covered with a halo.

When you walk through the screen, you are like a child of the sun, a god born from the most dazzling place. According to the layers of conspiracy and jealousy in her heart.

Lu Ting rubbed her head a little uncomfortably, and didn't dare not look directly into someone's eyes for the first time. She was originally from a famous family, and today she was ashamed of herself in front of such a merchant's son, which made her a little confused.

"This is my fourth sister." Lu Man introduced to the little uncle.

"It turned out to be the fourth sister of the Lu family." Gui Zhongqing is used to going to the rivers and lakes, and he has some habits in his words and deeds, and he is not informal.

Every day, I am either busy with business matters, or I am eating and drinking and playing polo with a few fox friends and dog friends, where do I know the things in the inner house, and I don't know the grievances of the Luman and Lu Ting sisters. I just thought that the brothers and sisters in other people's families were as close as their own families.

Today, I saw her come to accompany my sister-in-law to relieve my boredom, and I regarded her as a little sister in my heart.

The fourth sister sounded, but Lu Ting flashed her mind, so heartless and affectionately called her fourth sister, except for the sibling brother who disappeared when he was a child, there is no one else in this world. Now that she heard it again, she couldn't help but tremble.

"Sister, you see, this gem as red as a pomegranate, is it very rare, if it is under the sun, when the pearl is lit at night, this gem will be overflowing with starlight, it is very beautiful. Do you still like it? ”

Where did Gui Zhongqing understand Lu Ting's careful thoughts, so he happily took out a red and shining gem the size of an egg and gave it a little cui.

Diancui took it, and some couldn't put it down.

Such a red and dazzling, if it is used on the phoenix crown and xia veil, what kind of amazing world is it, Diancui's face suddenly turned red when he thought about it.

Gui Zhongqing took out a small box made of ebony again, opened it, and contained all kinds of strange gadgets.

"This is a water bead, sent by the boss of the boat that I saved. It's not as mysterious as the book says, but it's quite rare. If it doesn't fall into the water, put it on your body and it will have a miraculous effect. My sister was tired of inlaying a circle of gold thread, and wore it into a jewel for the little nephew to wear. Gui Zhongqing pointed to a jade/bead-like and said.

Lu Man felt strange, and when he took a look, there were indeed circles of water in it, as if living water was fluctuating, and he would even feel dizzy when he saw too much.

"And this, I heard that it is a kind of beast that can breathe flames, and the scales on the body of a beast that can breathe flames are warmed in your hands, and you can also sew them into your clothes for your little nephew, which is very good for keeping warm in winter." Gui Zhongqing pointed to a palm-sized piece of fish scales.

"The rest are all children's gadgets that we have collected overseas." He received a letter from home, saying that his mother was pregnant, and he happily collected a lot of things for his unborn brothers and sisters, and when he came back, his sister-in-law was pregnant again, so Wu asked him to divide these strange things into two and send them to Lu.

Lu Manmo held the small black box handed over by his brother-in-law, and looked at the gadgets inside one by one, his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and they were all soft. Although Lu Man has always been elegant and noble, such softness is something Lu Ting has never seen.

But such softness made Lu Ting feel dazzling and unbearable. Why can she live so carefree in her life? When I was in the Lu family, I had the eldest lady who said everything to take care of, and the second young master who was full of heart and eyes to take care of me; Marry a woman, and be angry with your mother-in-law and sister-in-law, but everyone in this family treats her so kindly......

Lu Ting clenched the handkerchief in her hand, for fear that she would not be able to control it, so she stepped forward and tore Lu Man's quiet face.

"Second brother, you are so good, how did you collect such strange things that I have never seen before!"

Dian Cui and Gui Zhongqing picked and chose in the box, and from time to time they screamed in surprise and happiness. Gui Zhongqing also explained to her one by one, where these things came from, and each of them had an interesting or thrilling origin. Only a few people in the room were stunned.

Lu Ting also forgot that she had already gotten up to say goodbye at this time, and only followed the hearty voice of Gui Zhongqing to tell about those unseen and unheard experiences.

In the end, there were a few satin horses that felt like a stream, and when I took it out, there was still a sparkling water.

"This is a shark yarn?" Lu Ting hid the jealousy in her heart, and inevitably said in surprise.

It's not that she hasn't seen shark yarn, and some of the nobles in the capital in the summer like to bring a shark yarn handkerchief, or make a beauty fan out of shark yarn, and everyone praised and envied a few words.

Now this horse's shark yarn ruler is rare to see.

Gui Zhongqing nodded and said, "The top ones are shark yarn, and the bottom ones are shark satin." ”

"Satin?" Lu Man couldn't sit still this time, so he came down and opened it for himself.

This satin is thicker than the silk yarn, not translucent, but has a jade-like halo, as if it is extremely silky gelatin, and it is not wrinkled in the hand.

"This shark yarn has to be made into a smock, but the shark satin can be made of any skirt and clothes, and the mother and grandmother each left a horse for the rest, and the sister-in-law and sister picked the one they liked and divided it," Gui Zhongqing said: "There are also the four sisters of the Lu family, if you don't dislike it, you can also choose a piece of clothes to play with." ”

is the only one who is so hearty and generous that he can say things like playing with shark satin yarn.

Hearing him mention himself, Lu Ting couldn't help but squirm again. The satin shark yarn is really too precious, just a handkerchief and a beauty fan are enough to arouse envy, not to mention making a dress!

"Sister Cui will pick first, and then pick the fourth sister after picking it." Lu Man hurriedly said, there are a total of four shark yarns and three shark satin, the little uncle is righteous and squandering money, but she is reluctant, besides, the rouge Luan bird pattern is really beautiful, it should be given some emerald.

was urged by her sister-in-law to choose, and Diancui didn't shirk it, and stepped forward with a smile to choose the rouge-colored shark satin, as well as a glow-colored shark yarn.

The rouge luan bird pattern is so beautiful, Lu Ting's eyes were looking at it without blinking, but she also knew in her heart that Diancui was Zhongqing's sister after all, and the best freedom was for her.

Thinking like this, I couldn't help but feel that sour and resentful feeling in my heart. But inadvertently looked up at Gui Zhongqing's sparse face, and forcibly suppressed the resentment.

She chose a horse of virgin lotus peony pattern satin and a marqued red shark yarn.

In addition, a piece of light blue and purple shark satin and a piece of shark yarn of the same color are very elegant and refined, which is exactly what Lu Man likes. The rest of the star-blue shark satin, cloud-colored shark yarn, Lu Man plans to make a set of summer clothes for the child in the womb and the unborn brother-in-law.

Lu Ting came out of the homecoming, and the little maid was holding the two satin and light yarn, very cautious, afraid that her hands would be scratched by the young lady, and she would have to be scolded.

After getting into the carriage, Lu Ting looked at the shark satin and shark yarn, and sighed slightly.

"Why does the young lady sigh, this shark satin and shark yarn are rare good things. It's a pity that it's going to be winter now, if it's summer, I must make that fairy skirt and clothes, so that the young ladies in the house can envy it! The little maid hurriedly flattered.

Lu Ting frowned slightly, and said, "Sometimes I really envy that Diancui, with my brother by my side...... If it weren't for Lu Man, my brother wouldn't have died, why didn't she fall to her death last time she fell down the attic, and now she is still living so happily! ”

The little maid knew that the young lady had been hating the third young lady all these years because of the matter of the fourth young master, so she didn't dare to breathe at this time, for fear of touching her moldy head again.
