Chapter 270: Chance Encounter
After Mrs. Lu went back, she immediately asked the housekeeper at home to inquire about the truth of the matter, and soon got a definite answer, but she didn't expect that the prince of Huainan really lived in the little-known Liu family, which was a great opportunity.
After losing money by sea, Lu Buqun's house was left with only an empty shelf, so money was very tight.
In order for her daughter to be able to rely on the big tree of the prince of Huainan, Mrs. Lu gave her ancestral jade bracelet as a living for five hundred taels, she was still quite confident in her daughter, anyway, her daughter became the wife of the prince in the future, and this bracelet was redeemed.
After taking five hundred taels, she took her daughter Lu Qingqing to make new jewelry and clothes, all of which were the most fashionable and urgent, because she was going to Liufu for a banquet the day after tomorrow.
After doing all this, Mrs. Lu looked forward to the stars and the moon and finally arrived on the day of Liufu's treat, when the rooster crowed, she pulled her baby daughter up and dressed up, and invited Mrs. Wu, who specializes in helping the bride dress up in the city, and her skills are super good.
As the so-called people rely on clothes, horses and saddles, makeup and dress are more immortal, Lu Qingqing originally looked six or seven points beautiful, after Mrs. Wu's dress, and wearing Mrs. Lu's newly purchased clothes and jewelry, it is definitely at the level of immortals.
As soon as he got off the car in front of Liufu, Lu Qingqing attracted the attention of a group of men.
Mrs. Lu was very satisfied with the reaction of the men present, which showed that her daughter's charm was great enough.
She bought a set of expensive study four treasures to give to Niu's, after the maid took the gift, Niu quietly went to the maid's side and opened it to take a look, although Niu didn't understand the four treasures of the study, but looked at the box outside and felt that the things inside were very good.
Mrs. Lu is very unaccustomed to Niu's style, it is really out of the remote country, and she actually checked the gifts sent by the guests on the spot, but she didn't expect the prince of Huainan to live in such a family.
Niu's purpose of secretly checking the gifts on the spot was actually to entertain people separately, and the people who gave things and valuables were invited by her to the upper room, and the gifts were ordinary, so she asked the maid to take people to the wing room to entertain.
Outside, Xiao Qi also stood at the door to greet the guests, and she was mainly greeting the guests she invited.
Although Xiao Qi said that everyone should not give gifts, there are still very few people who go to other people's homes empty-handed, so everyone gave gifts on the day of the treat, but there are light and heavy.
Xiao Qi wanted to exchange gifts, so he asked Zhang Guozi to help register the gifts, and return the gifts when everyone had a treat in the future.
Mrs. Lu followed the Niu family to the upper room, sat down and drank tea for a while, then she was a little breathless, and asked: "Mrs. Liu, I heard that the prince of Huainan lives in your house, so it can be seen that your family is one of the best families in this Pengzhou City." ”
When the Niu family heard this, they were very happy, it turned out that the prince of Huainan lived at home, and the status of the Liu family was so much higher in Pengzhou City! She decided to keep the prince of Huainan to live in the Liu family for a while.
Mrs. Lu took a sip of tea, and then said: "I believe that this prince of Huainan must be a very elegant character, I don't know if you can witness the peerless demeanor of the prince in your Liu Mansion today?" ”
Another richly dressed woman chimed in: "Yes! Yes! ”
Niu heard that these noble ladies wanted to see the prince of Huainan, so she beckoned to the maid octagonal standing at the door.
When Octagon came to his side, Niu stood up and whispered in Octagon's ear: "Go, see where the prince is now and what he is busy with?" ”
Soon Octagon quietly arrived in the east courtyard, and when he arrived at the door of the house, he was stopped by Zhu Ba, who was guarding outside.
"What is this sister doing here?"
Octagon was very straightforward: "Our lady wants to know what the prince is busy with now?" ”
Zhu Ba: "Sister is waiting outside first, I'll go inside to have a look." ”
Zhu Yuan is making up for sleep in the house at the moment, after the death of Changshan Four Monsters, his insomnia has occurred again, so he is always awakened by nightmares at night, and he is a little embarrassed during the day, and he can't sleep when he lies in bed, only tossing and turning and thinking nonsense.
Zhu Ba and the little maid heard the conversation outside word for word, he was a noble prince, and it was indeed too reckless for the Niu family to send someone to inquire about his whereabouts, but he was now asking the Liu family, so he didn't lose his temper, and only let Zhu Ba tell the little maid truthfully.
After Zhu Ba left the house, he showed a charming smile towards the octagon: "Sister, our son is resting in the house. ”
Octagon was blushed by Zhu Ba's laughter, but he didn't expect that not only the prince himself was good-looking, but even the guards around him were so good-looking when they laughed.
Bajiao turned around and trotted away in the direction of the door of the house, running to the corner where Zhu Ba couldn't see, Bajiao took out a handkerchief and wiped his forehead, and stroked his chest.
This Zhu Bugling is really good-looking when he laughs, I don't know what kind of woman he likes, and then she is worried that Zhu Bugling is the entourage of the prince, and I don't know if I can look down on an ordinary maid like her.
Back in the upper room, Octagon truthfully reported the situation of the son.
After hearing this, Mrs. Lu glanced at her daughter Lu Qingqing, and Lu Qingqing walked out of the house quietly.
Lu Qingqing's maid stuffed a piece of silver into Qingshan, a little maid who was guarding not far away: "This little brother, I heard that there is a noble person living in the house, and our young lady wants to take a walk in the courtyard, please point me out where the noble person lives, so that we will not go to the wrong place and disturb the nobleman." ”
Qingshan felt that the maid and lady in front of him were not only good-looking, but also very polite, and immediately pointed to the east courtyard where the prince lived after taking the silver.
The maid led Lu Qingqing to the east courtyard of the prince, and at the gate of the east courtyard, he happened to meet Ah Fu coming out of it, followed by a small servant.
Ah Fu came to deliver the painting, and the prince asked him to help make the portrait, and he sent it over as soon as he finished it today.
Lu Qingqing was very satisfied, she thought that Ah Fu was the prince of Huainan, so she lowered her eyes and gave Ah Fu a shy salute.
The son in front of him looks like a scholar, and he looks very safe and reliable, and it should be very good if he marries such a person in the future.
When Lu Qingqing got up after saluting, he stepped on the corner of his skirt and was about to fall to the ground.
Ah Fu hurriedly held the person up, Lu Qingqing raised his head in Ah Fu's arms, and his watery eyes looked at Ah Fu.
Ah Fu panicked, it was the first time he was so close to a woman, but the woman in front of him was very good-looking, like a fairy, especially this shy appearance, it was really intoxicating.
After a while, Ah Fu suddenly came to his senses and felt that the girl in front of him had been abrupt, so after Lu Qingqing stood firm, Ah Fu immediately took a step back.
He saluted Lu Qingqing, "I'm sorry, Miss Abrupt." ”
"It's Qingqing who is reckless, and please don't blame the son."
Lu Qingqing seemed to be very shy, and after speaking, she quickly turned around and left with the little maid.
Ah Fu looked at Lu Qingqing's back in a daze, and felt that this girl was not only beautiful, but also very reasonable.
