When Lu Xuan arrived in the front yard, the people of the Shu branch had already crowded the small courtyard.

A few seniors sat in the lower seat, and in the middle high seat, Lu Xuan's mother-in-law Cui Shi, and her cousin Rong Li.

Cui Shi didn't look very good, pinched the handkerchief against the center of her eyebrows and tilted her head sideways, sat in a wheelchair, and talked politely to her two uncles and aunts, with a gentle smile on her lips, but her eyes were also low and tight.

“…… My cousin was indeed on the sickbed, but the doctor also said that if the fever subsided today, he would be fine. Since Gongzheng had objections to the separation of the family in the early years, it was better to wait for his cousin to wake up and then discuss. ”

Rong Liao is the eldest son of Cui's sister who married to Jiangzhou, and when he was ten years old, his father changed his mind and spoiled his concubine and killed his wife. After his mother died of depression, he was taken to the mountainside by the concubine in the middle of the night and pushed down, but fortunately he was rescued by a passing chaifu, and after being raised, Lu Xuan's father heard about it, so he asked her mother to send someone to Jiangzhou and took him to the capital.

He didn't know she was a woman, but he took care of her. The first two times when Shu Zhi came, although he was in a wheelchair, he was afraid that she would be bullied, so he accompanied her to meet people, but in the end, he could only help so much.

There is a table in front of the brother, which is a relative, and in the eyes of others, he is also an outsider. He can't manage the affairs of the two branches of the Lu family, so he can only use a procrastination trick after all.

And this truth, her uncle Lu Xilong also understands.

Touching his knees, Lu Xilong sneered, and his words seemed to be very good: "I naturally understand that it is not appropriate to talk about this matter at this time, but the nephew of the Rong family, you also know that I have just been promoted to the position of Shi Sigong, the head of the Changwang Mansion, and it just so happens that the prince has many orders, and he is really busy." If it weren't for the fact that I had time to deal with this today, I wouldn't have been able to do it. After all......"

He laughed: "After all, I'm not you and your second brother and sister, a widow who sits in a wheelchair and only writes and paints on weekdays, and a widow who sits and eats nothing and doesn't have to think about anything. ”

"You talk nonsense!" Cui Shi was immediately angry, his throat stalked, and he coughed a lot in anger.

Rong Liao hurriedly patted her on the back and said to Lu Xilong: "Gong Zheng is cautious!" ”

"You're a foreigner, have a decent attitude! Raised in the Lu Mansion for so many years, don't you know the truth of the juniors' respect for the elders? Turn to get you to interject! Lu Xuan's eldest aunt Xu scolded.

Rong Lily choked, clutching his wheelchair tightly. Xu Shi twisted his fat body proudly and rolled his eyes, "I've seen it all, a few days ago, you met a hunchback behind the kitchen of the Lu Mansion, and you gave him a lot of silver." ”

"That's the camel who went up the mountain to collect eye medicine for Ah Xuan!" Cui Shi was embarrassed by the sneers of the crowd, and twisted the veil to explain.

But Fat Xu didn't care, rolled his eyes and said, "Who doesn't know that thieves will say that they are not thieves?" We have not been caught in bed, and if you say yes, that's it. ”

Cui's eyes were red, and his eyes were full of tears, which widow could tolerate such foul words?

When the people of the Shuzhi saw her like this, they felt that they had won half of the victory, and they laughed at her. In front of Lu Xuan stood a fourteen or fifteen-year-old cousin Lu Jiaojiao, who also hid her sneering lips, and whispered to another cousin on the side: "Let her occupy the Lu Mansion, she deserves it!" ”

The other scolded softly as a "slut".

None of them noticed that she was here, Lu Nanjun listened closely, his fists clicked out a series of fine and continuous sounds, and he was about to rush forward to refute loudly, but his afterglow swept to Lu Xuan's eyes that were as heavy as water.

He also thought that she was taking care of things as before, and he was afraid that everyone would see the Lu family's jokes, so he had to put down his fists. As a result, in the next moment, Lu Xuan unexpectedly raised a foot - kicked the cousin into the hall fiercely, and the flower fell to the ground!

Lu Jiaojiao didn't react for a while, she touched the blood on her face in amazement, and she screamed: "What is this, what is this!" My face, my face! ”

Fat Xu was also taken aback, although it was not her biological daughter, but she was a person from the big house, she looked at the crowd in amazement, her eyes rolled, and said to Cui's family: "It must be someone from the Lu Mansion who pushed it!" ”

How can there be such a person in the Lu Mansion! They must have touched porcelain!

Cui Shi looked at Lu Jiaojiao on the ground, and before he could speak, he heard a familiar deep voice.

"I kicked her in, how?"

Lu Xuan agreed neatly, and everyone immediately dodged away and looked at her.

Pulling back the ends of the hair hanging on his shoulders, Lu Xuan turned his head coldly and hooked his hand at the other cousin who was scolding: "Come here." ”

This is Lu Yu'er from the second room of the Shu Branch, she glanced at the stunned thin Xu family, walked towards Lu Xuan, and suddenly "snapped", and was slapped in the face and tilted her head.

Thin Xu was taken aback: "Lu Xuan, what are you doing!" ”

The only thing that responded to her was the sound of blood dripping from the corner of Lu Yu'er's mouth.

Burning her face, Lu Yuer looked back, grinding her teeth and scolding: ", you ......"

"Smack!" This time it's the right side of the face.

The five finger prints were clearly visible on Lu Yuer's face, and her ears were buzzing, as if she had lost her deafness for a moment.

Tears burst out of her eyes uncontrollably, she looked back at Lu Xuan, Lu Xuan took a step forward, she couldn't speak, and retreated in fear.

Lu Xuan didn't run for her, reached out and pinched her face, and said word by word: "If your mother didn't teach you to be a man and teach you to speak, then I, as the eldest son of the Lu Mansion family, will teach you, the daughter of the Lu Mansion, to be a good person and speak well——"

She looked at the fat Xu family: "The junior you said should respect the elder, then I have the right to dispose of the junior, right, aunt?" ”

Fat Xu's face was slightly purple. However, she has no way, her husband Lu Xilong has been eating oil and water in officialdom for so many years to support herself, but she was choked easily.

Seeing Lu Jiaojiao, who was hiding in the crowd after Lu Xuan let go of his hand and walked towards Cui's, Lu Xilong scolded "out of breath" and grabbed Lu Jiaojiao on the ground.

"There have been lessons that should be learned, but even if they did, they had to ask me and deal with them according to family law. If you treat them like this, that's a personal vendetta! If it's a personal vendetta, you have to lose money! Lu Xilong's gray eyes flashed, "I want the land in the west of the Lu Mansion!" ”

He came today to get the Lu Mansion in his hands, of course, in addition to the Lu Mansion, he also knew that the Cui family had some marriages, and the few pieces of land in the west were also the Cui family's private property.

wanted to say that it was fair for the old lady to divide the family, but it turned out that his father had no two or three left within two years of his hand. On the other hand, the old mansion of Lu Mansion lives comfortably, and there are servants in the fields, for so many years, it is Lu Xuan and her father who have repeatedly failed to succeed, and a seven-grade official who has been hung in the shade has died of illness within a few years, and the Lu Mansion is gradually declining, and the wife and children are still living well on the Lu Mansion.

And he, the family is tight, and he is sad.

As the saying goes, the father's debt is repaid by the son, and the son has no money, so the wife will pay it. So if you want Cui's to compensate him and compensate Lu Jiaojiao, what's the matter?

Lu Xilong was shameless, and Cui's almost got up on the spot.

"Ah Niang rest, Ah Xuan is here, you don't have to hurt your liver." Lu Xuan held her down, looked at her kind face, and thought that in her previous life, she stopped the officers and soldiers for her, but was stabbed to death with a shot, and she was full of guilt.

In this life, she won't let her Cao Xin anymore.

Lu Xuan helped her sit back, walked towards Lu Xilong, and asked, "Uncle thinks this is a personal vendetta?" ”

She has had a good appearance since she was a child, and now she is dressed in men's clothes, her complexion is not good, and her sick color makes her covered with a layer of moon white, but she does not look weak at all, but ...... made Lu Xilong a little frightened.

Especially those eyes, he had seen her before his illness, and she was more elegant and proud at that time, and a pair of phoenix eyes were raised and closed, which made people feel like March Spring. But now, her eyes were cold, staring at him, and it made him feel as if he had never been there, like a baby in swaddling clothes.

Lu Xilong stammered rarely: "I, I, I...... That's right! This is a personal vendetta! He dragged Lu Jiaojiao forward, "She has a big opening on her forehead, how do you let her meet people in the future and how to marry!" If it's just a lesson, why don't you kill it! ”

Lu Xuan glanced at the scratches on Lu Jiaojiao's head and face that were less than the length of her little knuckle, and said sarcastically: "It's true, the bowl is big." ”

Lu Xilong was stunned, but he didn't expect her to admit it, and he was busy: "I heard it, she can accept it herself!" ”

Shu Zhiqi: "I heard it." ”

There are many people! A group of crows that steal people's favors!

Lu Nanjun scolded from the bottom of his heart.

Sister is too, why do you want to follow Lu Xilong's words, in this way, the Yan branch is not left behind!

He muttered and looked at Lu Xuan, not knowing what she was thinking.

Didn't you really burn out your head?

Lu Xilong was triumphant: "Nephew, I heard that the test will be held in a few days, you have a good future, you shouldn't want any gossip on your body to affect your future, right?" Although our two branches have been separated for many years, but they are relatives, if you are willing to re-liquidate the Lu Mansion to sort out the partiality of the year, return our branch to a fair, and then give us the few pieces of land in the west, I think, Jiaojiao will forgive you. ”

"Isn't it, Jiaojiao?"

Lu Jiaojiao was afraid of Lu Xuan, but she didn't dare to disobey her father, so she whispered: "Yes......"

Lu Xilong leaned back, as if he was already the master of the Lu Mansion.

Everyone was waiting for Lu Xuan to speak, Cui Shi was uneasy, and was allowed to lie and whispered: "Cousin won't do stupid things." ”

Lu Nanjun: ...... He didn't think so.

After a while, Lu Xuan suddenly stretched out his hand towards him and hooked it.

Lu Nanjun was stunned for a moment, and stepped forward, "Brother? ”

Lu Xuan didn't look back, stared at Lu Xilong and Lu Jiaojiao, and sighed regretfully for a while.

"Uncle, I finally figured it out, why a person like you, who is slippery and can please, has been a nine-rank official for more than ten years, and only this year has he been promoted to an eighth-grade position......

"It's stupid."

Lu Xilong bounced up instantly, "What did you say!" - I will definitely write to the examiner, saying that you are not behaving properly, being domineering, and treating your elders badly, and when the time comes, you will beg me, but don't ...... back."

Lu Xuan took out the dagger on Lu Nanjun's waist and pasted it on Lu Xilong's throat.
