Chapter 144 hesitation

As soon as Lu Hong, who was covered in dust, arrived at the door of the house, he asked Xiao Wu to prepare new clothes. But when Lu Hong walked into the courtyard and saw Chaoxia standing outside the main house, he felt strange and walked over. Just as Lu Hong wanted to ask, he heard a conversation in the room.

understood that Huo Qingsong was here to propose to Lu Xiang'er, and Lu Hong was also very shocked but disagreed. At the beginning, Lu Hong saw that Liao Wenbo was interested in Lu Xianger, so he didn't agree very much. He was also afraid that Lu Xiang'er would enter the Liao Mansion and suffer some grievances. At this time, another general who was not much taller than Liao Wenbo came out, and Lu Hong disagreed.

Although Lu Hong admires and respects Huo Qingsong very much, it does not mean that Huo Qingsong can take care of Lu Xiang'er. Lu Hong came from the family of high-ranking officials, and he also saw what kind of things happened in those back houses. He didn't want his sister to change from a lively woman to a resentful woman who was detained in a deep house.

Seeing that Xiao Wu had already brought the new robe, the matchmaker and Huo Qingsong's nurse were persuading Lu Erniang, and Lu Hong directly bypassed Xiao Wu. In Chaoxia's surprised gaze, Lu Hong walked into the main room with a raised voice: "Auntie, my son thinks that this matter still depends on how Xiang'er plans, this is related to Xiang'er's happiness in the second half of her life, and my son doesn't want to see Xiang'er sad." ”

Lu Hong's sudden words naturally attracted the attention of the Zheng family and the matchmaker. Song Yuan and Huo Qingsong knew that it was Lu Hong, but they went to see Lu Erniang. Sure enough, when Lu Erniang heard Lu Hong's words again, her face did not hesitate, but nodded lightly. The uncle and nephew glanced at each other, and they both sighed a little that it was not the right time for Lu Hong to come back.

If Lu Erniang had nodded first, then this matter would probably be much easier. Song Yuan and Huo Qingsong knew that although Lu Xiang'er was small, she had a lot of ideas. If she really asked Lu Xiang'er's opinion, if she shook her head, Lu Erniang would definitely listen to her, then Huo Qingsong would have survived.

In fact, Song Yuan came to the Lu family first, just to see if Lu Hong and Lu Xiang'er were not at home. If the three of them were at home, Song Yuan planned to find an excuse to get the three of them out. Unexpectedly, Lu Xiang'er was unwell and rested in her room, and Lu Hong helped Lu Xiang'er take care of the shop.

Lu Xianger and Chaoxia are both little ladies, and they will not come to the living room because of the etiquette. But Lu Hong was not there, Song Yuan thought that God was helping Huo Qingsong. Unexpectedly, just when Lu Erniang was about to be explained by the Zheng family and the matchmaker, Lu Hong suddenly came back.

But seeing that Lu Hong was covered in dust from beginning to end, Song Yuan couldn't help laughing. However, when Huo Qingsong looked at it, Song Yuan put away his smile, but in his heart he was amused that his nephew was 'not good for a teacher'. Since Huo Qingsong was ten years old, he has been like a little adult, and it is rare for Song Yuan to see when he is not in trouble. Now in this matter, Song Yuan must be helping him, but he also has some hearts to see his nephew suffer.

When Lu Erniang saw Lu Hong's appearance, she was taken aback at first, and then pretended to be angry and said angrily: "Why are you so rude, why don't you apologize to the distinguished guest quickly, and then go to change your clothes." ”

"What A-Niang taught me is that my son is rude." Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Lu Hong obediently saluted the few people present before slowly withdrawing.

Seeing Lu Hong leaving, the Zheng family didn't know what the Lu family was doing, so he asked Lu Erniang again: "Second lady, Song'er is also in front of you, and you know very well what he is like." Such a family affair is unattainable. ”

"My sister said it was very true, but I hope that my little girl will marry someone who is in love." With the appearance of Lu Hong, Lu Erniang remembered that Lu Xiang'er was a person with a strong personality, if she didn't want to marry Huo Qingsong, wouldn't she be sorry for her deceased brother and sister-in-law. So, Lu Erniang used the word 'support' and said softly: "If my sister doesn't mind, I want to understand the meaning of the little girl first." ”

Lu Erniang said this, just to let Huo Qingsong go back first, how to say that Lu Xiang'er has not yet arrived, he does not need to worry. But Lu Erniang was wrong, Huo Qingsong was not in a hurry, and he would not come to propose marriage at this time. Seeing that Lu Erniang shirked, Huo Qingsong did not have the temperament to retreat without encountering setbacks.

Without waiting for the Zheng family to speak, Huo Qingsong suddenly got up and said, "Lu Niangzi, since I have been rolling in the barracks, I have developed a straightforward temperament. As Mrs. Lu said, I will ask Mrs. Lu what she means, if she really has no intention, I will never mention it. ”

Before the words fell, Huo Qingsong strode out. Lu Erniang and the matchmaker widened their eyes in shock, watching Huo Qingsong leave, without saying a word. Zheng and Song Yuan glanced at each other, a little embarrassed. Huo Qingsong's actions, looking at the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, are also incompatible with etiquette. But both of them are Huo Qingsong's closest relatives, so they have to make a haha and deal with Huo Qingsong.

Zheng is Huo Qingsong's nurse and a member of the General's Mansion, so he immediately apologized to Lu Erniang: "Second lady, Brother Song lost his parents since he was a child, and the old general also died when he was ten years old, so he will inevitably be a little unruly. I also ask the second lady to forgive Brother Song'er for his reckless behavior, and I will go to persuade him to come back. ”

As he spoke, Zheng also got up and wanted to persuade Huo Qingsong back. But Song Yuan stopped in front of her and said loudly: "You don't have to worry, there is still a morning glow in the courtyard of Little Lady Lu, and it won't damage her reputation." Besides, Qingsong is not so reckless and knows how to take it lightly. ”

Song Yuan felt Lu Erniang's angry gaze, and immediately had a smile on his face and wanted to explain to Lu Erniang. It can be seen that the matchmaker was dumbfounded, and Song Yuan's face was blank, staring straight at her. Although the matchmaker had never seen Song Yuan, he had never heard of what kind of character the person in front of him was. Thinking of not being a matchmaker, and messing with another character, the matchmaker immediately got up and retired. Of course, she also hinted to Song Yuan that she would not spread today's events.

The matchmaker left, and Song Yuan didn't have so many taboos, so he sat directly next to Lu Erniang, and said, "Erniang, even if you are worried, you should understand what kind of character Xiang'er is." Have you ever seen someone who can make Xiang'er soft? Besides, Qingsong is a person who can't say a few words for a few hours, how can he speak Xiang'er. Let them solve the matter of the two of them by themselves. The most important thing you should do now is to think about what we did before. ”

"Song Yuan, if you talk nonsense again, don't blame me for kicking you out." Lu Erniang listened to what Song Yuan said earlier, and her heart was slightly calmer. But when he heard the last words he said, he was immediately annoyed and angry, and his eyes stood up. If nothing else, there is a Zheng family listening to it in this room. Song Yuan can not estimate anything, Lu Erniang still has a face. glared at Song Yuan fiercely, Lu Erniang brushed her sleeves and went back to the room, she couldn't even care about the number of courtesies that should be given to the Zheng family.

Zheng couldn't help but shake his head when he saw Lu Erniang, whose face was flushed, close the door, and said in a low voice: "Grandpa Guo, you have done it." The second lady is also a serious lady, you are so frivolous, but it's too much, too ......"

"I don't know, but it's not for the green pine." Song Yuan shook his head, glanced at Lu Erniang's room, and said in a low voice: "For the sake of Qingsong, I offended Erniang fiercely this time." If he can't marry Xiang'er, he really made me suffer this sin for nothing. ”

Seeing that Song Yuan also admired Lu Xiang'er so much, the Zheng family looked at what kind of person she was. Thinking about it, Zheng got up and walked out of the living room. Song Yuan saw that Zheng was gone, and immediately rushed to the door of Lu Erniang's room, knocking on the door softly, and said something in a low voice.

Besides, Huo Qingsong walked out of the main house and went directly to the small cross-courtyard in the west. But before he entered the courtyard, Chaoxia appeared in front of Huo Qingsong and stopped him at the gate of the courtyard. Huo Qingsong looked at Chaoxia and said very quietly: "I'll have a few words with her, please don't stop me." ”

"Can you guarantee that Xiang'er won't be harmed in any way?" Chaoxia didn't move, but she behaved like a pool of water, making people unable to understand what she was thinking.

Huo Qingsong couldn't see it, but he nodded and said affirmatively: "If I can't even protect my wife, I don't deserve the surname 'Huo'." ”

"Well, please remember every word you said today." Chaoxia bowed slightly, quickly flashed to the side, and let go of the door.

Lu Xiang'er, who was sitting in the room, was shocked at first when she saw Huo Qingsong standing at the door of the room. Then, as if something had come back to his composure. Standing up slowly, Lu Xiang'er walked in front of Huo Qingsong, and said after blessing Fu: "General Huo, the sun is just right at this time, why don't you go to the courtyard and sit." ”

"Okay." Huo Qingsong was slightly stunned, and understood that Lu Xiang'er didn't want to be alone in the room with him, which made people misunderstand. Nodding, Huo Qingsong took a step back and let Lu Xiang'er walk in front.

Lu Xiang'er was entangled in Huo Qingsong's purpose at this time, and she also forgot the etiquette she remembered on weekdays, so she stepped out of the door and came to the courtyard. Glancing at the morning glow standing under the locust tree and looking up at the fruit on the tree, Lu Xiang'er didn't let her avoid it, so she invited Huo Qingsong to sit at the stone table.

Huo Qingsong looked at Lu Xiang'er's calm face, and felt more and more that she didn't look like a young lady who was not at all. However, the thought that she would marry someone else made Huo Qingsong's heart very uncomfortable. At the beginning, Huo Qingsong didn't understand what it was like here, but it was only through a few friends that he realized that he had affection for Lu Xiang'er. At this time, looking at Lu Xiang'er, Huo Qingsong actually imagined that she was wearing a phoenix crown.

Lu Xiang'er didn't know what Huo Qingsong was thinking, but guessed what he was doing. After taking a deep breath, Lu Xiang'er raised her head, looked at Huo Qingsong seriously and calmly, and said softly: "General Huo is the queen of the general, and his future is limitless. Xiang'er is just a little lady from an ordinary people's family, and she really doesn't match the general......"
