Chapter 61: Everyone's Troubles
After the new subject champion finished speaking, Tan Yin saw Li Zheng and Zhang Ziqing coming, so she walked over, and Zheng Xi went straight to Lu Qing.
Lu Qing was very annoyed when she saw Zheng Xi, and she was unwilling to talk to him in public, so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, so she turned around and left.
After returning from the Marquis of Jingning Mansion that day, although Mrs. Lu reprimanded her, she still felt sorry for her daughter, and later, under the persuasion of Mrs. Tan and the lobbying of her daughter, she was not very enthusiastic about the Zheng family. But Lu Da did not change his original intention, and called her to the study for a lecture a few days later, and later asked Lu Yiner to face him, so he had such a show today.
Lu Qing couldn't help but think of the scene in her father's study that day. Nervous, she entered the study and saw her mother too.
Luda, who had always been serious, began to be kind to her daughter that day, and after a few homely words, she cut to the chase and said, "I heard your mother say your worries. Zheng Xigui is the son of the Hou Mansion, he is shrewd and capable, he is the second grade, although he likes to go in and out of the Zhangtai, but he loves you a lot, in the future, you will be the housewife of the Hou Mansion, those are just concubines, can you still pass you can't be, people envy you, what are you not satisfied with? ”
Lu Qing looked at his father's appearance, and knew that it was not easy to pass today, his father was different from his mother, but he would not have so much compassion, so he could only continue to cry, "Although Zheng Xiren is not bad, he is also quite capable, but he is constantly pampered inside and outside, and like his father, he doesn't know how many top brands he has been popular." How did the daughter of a petty official with no power in my sixth rank become the head of the housewife of the second-class marquis, there are more than 100 people in his family, and the inside is filthy, you only see the glory and wealth of the Hou Mansion, but you don't see its danger. If Zheng Xi has no affection for me, how should I deal with myself. ”
Lu Da glanced at Mrs. Lu, who was sitting on the side, and Mrs. Lu couldn't stand it, so she had to say: "They are the lord's family, so they will naturally respect the master mother, and you can have a few more children to protect your life." ”
"Respect for the housewife? You don't know how his mother Kim is doing. ”
"What's wrong with Mrs. Zheng! She is quite famous in Shangjing, and she is exquisite, and everyone praises her. Luda rebuked.
"Aren't you tired? People are still beautiful, but the powder on their faces is so thick that they can sing, I heard that she was a big beauty when she was young, and now she is being ruined. ”
"It's nonsense, what does this have to do with Zheng Xi, he is different from his father?"
"He's not the same as his father? Yes, he is more capable than his father, but he is not inferior to the sleeping flowers and willows, and the amorous and lustful ones. ”
Mrs. Lu saw that the two of them were talking more and more intensely, and the more they pointed at Mai Mang, and hurriedly played a round game, "He is not married, and he will change after marriage." Besides, when I was young, I always liked women, and when I got older, I naturally came back, didn't I come here like this! ”
"The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change."
Lu Da was so angry that he slapped the table heavily and said, "Whose son doesn't have a few favorite concubines, are you Xueyanya?" I see if you stay together all day, are you being picked up by them! He pointed at Mrs. Lu's nose and scolded: "Your good daughter, your Gao family doesn't want a golden beetle son-in-law, do you want the Lu family to want it either." The daughter of a merchant dares to throw her face to show the new champion, it is really shameless, she can't get on the stage, but fortunately she has moved out now, and she is not allowed to interact with them in the future. ”
Lu Qing saw her father scolding her mother, and she cried angrily: "What mistake did my daughter make, you just beat me and scolded me, why bother with my mother and grandfather." ”
Luda slapped her and shouted angrily, "You still dare to talk back." ”
Lu Qing covered her face and cried: "You beat me to death!" Even if I die, I won't marry into the Zheng family. I don't want to be like my mother, working day and night to live a big family, and being disliked by others. was poked in the heart by Aunt Chen without yin or yang, and she had to take care of Aunt Yin, who was beautiful and favored. ”
As soon as Lu Da heard this, she was furious, and she raised her foot and kicked Lu Qing to the ground, she touched her stomach in pain and screamed.
Mrs. Lu hurriedly came to see her daughter, helped her up immediately, rubbed her belly, asked her if she was seriously injured, and immediately ordered the maidservant to ask for a doctor. When Lu Qing was a little better, he turned around and straightened up to look at Lu Da.
"Luda, I have been married to you for more than 20 years, and I ask myself to do my best for the Lu family. I gave birth to a son and a daughter for the Lu family, and I worked day and night to take care of the housework. is filial to his in-laws, and he is compassionate to his children, and he is not disinterested in Aunt Chen and Aunt Yin. You are dedicated to being an official, and you don't care about everything in your family, it's all my calculations inside and out, and I'll take care of you Zhang Luo. Your mother, Aunt Chen, and even your wife, who always thought that I could be a six-rank official, was a blessing that I cultivated in my previous life, and it was also a blessing for the Gao family. But over the years, what kind of life have I lived, I know in my heart, how much face did you give me when my mother's family came over? If you can start all over again, you were just a white man at the time, even if you were a jinshi, I would never enter the gate of your Lu family. I will never agree to the marriage of the Zheng family, I only sigh that I have lived a long time and Qing'er has not been able to see and think clearly, I will never let Qing'er enter this fire pit again, whether to give up or leave with you, I just took Qing'er away. ”
After speaking, he didn't look at Lu Da, so he and the maid helped Lu Qing away.
In the next few days, Luda went to Mrs. Lu's room to have a closed door, and even if they met on other occasions, Mrs. Lu did not give him a good face. Lu Da was also stunned to see Mrs. Lu behaving like this, and seemed to see the once spicy and capable lady of the Gao family, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
