Chapter 66 Lu Family Seventeen
From time to time, I went to Lu's house, called the porter, and handed over the sticker, the porter happened to be the little guy next to Lu Seventeen in the past, because Lu Seventeen went to the countryside, and he was older, so he did the porter to get this idle and often rewarded errand. Seeing that it was Zeng Jiawulang who came to visit, he knew that he was friendly with the seventeenth prince, so he directly led him to Lu Seventeen's courtyard.
When I entered the door of the small courtyard, I saw a man in red leaning under an orange tree, smiling and watching a little boy with seven or eight children jumping enough to reach the orange orange on the branch, and laughing and cheering on the side: "Twenty-one, hurry up, pick enough ten, and Ge Ming'er will take you to visit the tiles." ”
"Tile? Lu Seventeen, are you looking for death? ”
I had to listen to a loud shout from the house, it was obviously a woman's voice, but it was full of anger.
Before the words fell, a blue figure blew out like a whirlwind, but it was a girl wearing a light blue cloth dress, standing in front of Lu Seventeen in red, with an angry face, glaring at Lu Seventeen, clenching his fists, like a little tiger about to exert his might.
Lu Qiqi touched his nose and called the child under the tree: "Twenty-one, you also take care of your cousin." You asked me to go to the tile yourself. ”
The little boy named Twenty-One also rubbed to the side of the Fawei girl and pulled her sleeve: "Sister Cang'er, don't be angry with Brother Seventeen, he is teasing me." ”
"Is there such a funny thing? How old are you? This bad guy is going to hook you to the tile? When I turned around and told my aunt to listen, I might be more sad. ”
As he was talking, he saw a sweet voice in the room and smiled: "Sister Cang'er, don't listen to my brother, he has never spoken in a proper manner." ”
A fourteen or fifteen-year-old lady came out of the house, and saw her brother's former little maid leading a young man, and an eleven or twelve-year-old lady, nodded with a light smile, and wanted to remind her brother that there was a visitor. ”
Lu Qiqi looked back at this time, saw Zeng Wulang, showed great joy, stepped forward in three steps and two steps, took Zeng Wulang's hand and smiled: "Why are you here?" I didn't say anything in advance, I went to the drunken guest house to book a private room, and our brother also had a few drinks. ”
Seeing that Zeng Wulang was still followed by a little girl, thinking about which sister Zeng Wulang should be, and wondering why Zeng Wulang came to look for him, why did he bring his female dependents over, because his personality has always been cynical, and he didn't care about those small sections, so he said to his sister: "Little sister, you help take care of Miss Zeng's family, brother and Gorou are talking in the house." ”
The girl responded with a smile, Lianbu stepped forward, took Banniang's hand, and said softly: "My brother is such a character, please forgive me for the faux pas, how many young ladies are you of the Zeng family?" He turned back to call Twenty-One: "Brother Twenty-one, you go to find someone to first," and beckoned Cang'er, "Sister Cang'er, you go into the house with me and help me greet Miss Zeng's family." ”
Although the Cang'er was disgusted with Lu Seventeen, he turned his face to this Miss Lu, but he greeted him with a smile, and hurriedly said "hey", and entered the house with the two.
Banniang blessed the two girls and introduced herself: "Hello two sisters, I am in the fifteenth line in the clan, and eight in the family, and the two sisters call me Banniang." Today, I took the liberty to come with my fifth brother and disturb my sisters. ”
Cang'er just waved her hand unmindfully, she was also a guest, not a host, since it was not her turn to speak, but Miss Lu smiled: "Where to bother, the fifth brother can find it, this can be regarded as helping our family, or with my brother's temperament, people who can't be idle for a moment, no one has an appointment, I don't know what to do," and introduced himself, "I'll do four, the eighth sister just call me a fourth mother, we have many brothers, the daughter's family is few, the first few sisters are married, I was very lonely, Fortunately, now I am accompanied by my cousin Cang'er, and I am very happy to see my eighth sister. ”
After seeing each other, Lu Siniang called the maids to serve tea and snacks, and when the maids served the refreshments for the guests, Lu Siniang also wondered why the fifth brother of the Zeng family asked why his brother and brought his sister, so he smiled and said: "My brother and I died early because of my father's mother, and my uncle was an official outside, and he didn't care too much about his brother, so he developed his idle temperament, but provoked some pride, and went to the grange, saying that it is not difficult to study, and it is not difficult to farm? I really want to make some results for my uncle to see. Therefore, he has never been in the city, and he doesn't want to go back to the city because of the festival, so he is thinking about going around to visit his friends, and he doesn't want Fifth Brother Zeng to come to see him. ”
Banniang heard her say this big basket of words, I really didn't see that this Miss Lu looked delicate and restrained, and her eloquence was excellent, so she also smiled: "Because my fifth brother has some things, I want to find the seventeenth son, and I came out to find the seventeenth son, but the seventeenth son is not at home, I met a friend on the street yesterday, and I heard that the seventeenth son has returned home, so I came over, because I have always been fine at home, and the sisters also went to the countryside, so I was left alone at home, and the fifth brother saw that I was idle, and knew that the fourth sister Lu should be at home, so he simply brought me here, Also meet Sister Lu Si. ”
Lu Siniang originally wanted to lead Banniang to talk about the reason why Zeng Wulang came to find her brother, but who knew that this girl said a lot, but she didn't say anything, so she also threw it away, and simply just said something between girls, left and right are just dressing up, what books you read, what embroidery work you do, and what pastimes you have on weekdays.
Cang'er was a little bored when he heard this, and after sitting for a while, he said to the two: "Cousin, you can talk to Miss Zeng, I'll go and see Twenty-one." ”
After speaking, without waiting for Lu Siniang to answer, Lisuo got up and flashed out.
Lu Siniang said with some apologies: "Eighth sister, don't care, cousin Cang'er has this temperament, and she is a girl who practices martial arts, she is in a hurry, but she is good-hearted." She is the niece of my sixth aunt's mother's family, and because her parents are gone, she was taken to our house by my sixth aunt, and because there are no other girls in our house, she has always been good friends with me. I also play in our yard every day. ”
Banniang said that she didn't care, and when she heard Lu Siniang say that Cang'er was martial arts, she became a little interested: "Is it really martial arts?" This is rare. If only I could see her kung fu someday. ”
Lu Siniang saw that she was really interested, and there was some dreamy color in her eyes, which was already smart, and she also felt funny, and when she heard this, she knew that this little girl was also not pretending, so she said: "It's not difficult, when she comes back, ask her to play a few punches or perform a few sets of swordsmanship for you to see, her father used to be a martial artist and has a family inheritance." Isn't this my twenty-first brother pestering her every day. ”
"That's great." Thinking of the martial arts world, Banniang's eyes lit up, and she was looking forward to Cang'er coming back to the house.
Who knew that after waiting for a while, the girl didn't turn back, so Lu Siniang called the maid in: "Go and see what Miss Biao is doing?" If it's okay, invite her over. ”
The maid was killed, and after a while, she saw Cang'er sweating profusely into the house: "Cousin, are you looking for me?" ”
As she spoke, she took the tea she hadn't finished on the table, poured it into her mouth in one gulp, and still felt that it was not enjoyable, so she poured another cup and poured it down, and then sat down unsatisfied.
In that way, Banniang who watched it felt that the tea was sweet, and couldn't help but take a sip of the water cup.
Lu Siniang took the handkerchief and reached out to help Cang'er wipe the sweat on his face: "What are you doing here?" Look at the sweat on your face? Do you want to change into dry clothes first? ”
Cang Er shook his head helplessly: "It's very troublesome, it's good to dress this outfit, what is my cousin looking for me?" I'm busy. ”
"Tell me what you're up to?" Lu Siniang said angrily.
"Didn't Aunt Six ask someone to cut down the begonia trees in her yard? The men cut down there for a long time before they knocked down one, and I looked at the effort, so I went to look for the axe, and after a while, they were almost all cut down, and there were two more. ”
"This," Lu Siniang really couldn't cry or laugh, "and I'm not in a hurry, those heavy jobs, what are you doing with a girl?" Aunt Six didn't care about you? ”
"My aunt is not here, and I went to talk to the fourth aunt in front of me. If my cousin is fine, I'll go and cut down the two begonia trees before I come back. Cang'er replied.
"Okay, don't go back, but two trees, it's not that no one takes care of them," Lu Siniang grabbed him, "Sister Zeng wants to know you." You sit down and talk for a while. ”
"Didn't you just see a salute?" Cang'er Qi said.
