Chapter 186 Chapter 186 Heard
Since Li Luo's wife Cui Lan saw the appearance of Lu Xianger and Chaoxia successively, her behavior and attitude were a little strange. While chatting with Lu Erniang and Mrs. Wen, she also carefully asked Lu Erniang about Lu Xianger and Chaoxia. Although they were very careful in their words, Lu Erniang and Mrs. Wen could still feel it.
Lu Erniang thought that Mrs. Li wanted to choose a wife for Li Wenhao, so she worked hard to introduce Chaoxia to her. And Mrs. Wen knew something about Li Wenhao and Chaoxia from Wen Song and Wen Yao's brothers and sisters, thinking that Mrs. Li didn't like Chaoxia and was hinting at something. Therefore, Mrs. Wen also helped Lu Erniang say good things for Chaoxia.
Mrs. Li wanted to know more about Lu Xiang'er, but she heard a lot about Chaoxia. Although there were some regrets, the more she listened, Mrs. Li's face began to change a little. In the end, Mrs. Li's face was a little pale, and she leaned towards Lu Erniang weakly.
"Mrs. Li, what's wrong with you?" Feeling the pressure on her body, Lu Erniang realized that Mrs. Li was inappropriate, and immediately exclaimed.
Li Luo, who was at the other table, heard this voice, and immediately got up and ran to Mrs. Li's side, and said hurriedly: "Lan'er, what's wrong with you." ”
Looking at Li Luo's expression, he obviously cares about his wife very much. Song Yuan and Wen Nuo glanced at each other, and also walked over. But the hearts of the two of them are very strange, from the prince to the little guy below, they are all people who practice martial arts. All people are in good health, and getting sick is a rare thing. But it was really strange to see Mrs. Li's face as if she was seriously ill.
Mrs. Li leaned on Li Luo's body with a complicated expression, and said in a low voice, "I'm a little uncomfortable and want to go back and rest." ”
"Lan'er......" Li Luo just wanted to say something, but he felt that he was shaking the hand holding Mrs. Li. Li Luo hurriedly nodded and said, "Okay, let's go back to the house." ”
As soon as the words fell, Li Luo raised his head to say something, Song Yuan hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Even if Mrs. Li is not well, you still do so much false courtesy, go back and invite a Lang Zhong quickly." ”
"Then Li will leave." Li Luo was originally from the military camp, and his temperament was naturally clean and neat. Xiang Song Yuan and Wen Nuo hugged their fists, and nodded to Lu Erniang and Mrs. Wen, and Li Luo helped Mrs. Li downstairs.
Li Luo's sudden departure made Song Yuan and Wen Nuo very helpless. The two glanced at each other, then smiled and walked back to the table to continue drinking tea and chatting. Speaking of which, the two met Li Luo, and it was when Li Luo came to Beijing to look for his abducted daughter and his sister who never returned.
I haven't seen each other for many years, and they are three people of about the same age, but Li Luo looks older. Thinking of what happened back then, Song Yuan and Wen Nuo both sighed softly and drank tea silently.
Lu Erniang and Mrs. Wen, who didn't know much about the events of the year, thought that Mrs. Li might be really sick. After planning whether to go to the Zhongyong Palace's Mansion tomorrow, he talked about other topics. Of course, the two women were most willing to talk about their own children.
"Xiang'er, Sister Chaoxia, I found that Mrs. Li looked at you a little wrong." Wen Yao saw that Lu Erniang and Mrs. Wen didn't pay attention to them, so she looked at Lu Xiang'er and Chaoxia.
Lu Xiang'er listened to Wen Yao's words and immediately said, "I can see it too." Do you say that she was jealous of Sister Chaoxia and fascinated Li Wenhao, and then found out that Chaoxia was actually a good person, which was a little contradictory. ”
"Xiang'er, you are laughing at me again." Chaoxia glanced at Lu Xiang'er, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but be teased by her.
Wen Yao also covered her mouth and chuckled, but she understood a little in her heart that Lu Xiang'er might not know where Mrs. Li's weirdness came from, so she would laugh like this and make a few people laugh. At this time, what Lu Xianger cares about the most is probably what Zheng Fangfei said.
Thinking of this, Wen Yao sighed secretly and wanted to say something. Song Yuan got up and opened the door to summon the shopkeeper, and he was about to start ordering. At this time, the people in the house realized that it was almost noon, and it was time for lunch. In one more hour, the temple examination will be over.
Just as Xiao Er was about to raise his chopsticks, the door was suddenly opened. Huo Qingqing, who was cold, had not yet entered the house, and his voice had already come in: "I can be regarded as finding you." ”
"Qingqing, how old are you, and you are still so reckless, come and meet your cousin and cousin." Song Yuan likes Huo Qingqing's character very much, but there is Wen Nuo in front of him, and he doesn't want Huo Qingqing to be too embarrassed.
Huo Qingqing also knew what Song Yuan meant, and stuck out his tongue at Lu Xiang'er and the three of them, before slowly walking in front of Wen Nuo and saluting in a proper manner. If it weren't for Huo Qingqing's previous words and deeds, she would really be a lady from everyone at this time, and people couldn't see the rudeness.
"Okay, it's all my own family, let's sit down and eat." Wen Nuo's tone was very rare, although it was a little stiff, it was also extremely rare.
Mrs. Wen even pulled Huo Qingqing over and said with a smile: "I know that you know how to be polite, come here." You've found this place, but you're tired of it. ”
"Cousin, Qingqing is not tired, but she is about to be frozen." Huo Qingqing smiled at Lu Erniang, then sat down between Lu Xiang'er and Wen Yao, ignoring the white eyes of the two.
When Lu Erniang heard Huo Qingqing say this, she immediately put a bowl of soup in front of Huo Qingqing, and said with a smile: "Since it's cold, let's drink a bowl of soup first to warm up before eating." ”
"Thank you, aunt. However, Qingqing wanted to eat her aunt's dishes at night. "Huo Qingqing knew that today was Lu Hong's 'big day', and Lu Erniang would definitely cook at Lu's house at night, so she wanted to go to eat.
"Okay, you and Qingsong will come in the evening, and I'll cook a few more dishes." Lu Erniang liked the crowd very much, so she immediately responded, making Huo Qingqing nod again and again with a smile.
Wen Yao on the side listened to Huo Qingqing's laughter, and her eyes also lit up. But seeing Mrs. Wen's eyes swept over intentionally or unintentionally, she immediately lowered her head. There is no way, Wen Mansion also wants a family banquet tonight, although Wen Yao also likes to eat the dishes made by Lu Erniang, she has to stay at home.
Mrs. Wen had heard Wen Yao say many times that the food cooked by Lu Erniang was delicious, and she always thought that Wen Yao liked the atmosphere of eating. Seeing her daughter's look this time, Mrs. Wen believed it, and talked about eating with Lu Erniang while eating the food on the table.
On the other side, Song Yuan and Wen Nuo, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, chatted very speculatively. Every topic can make two people have a drink. After this meal, a pot of soju went into the stomachs of the two of them. There is no Wen Nuo, who has a high amount of alcohol in Song Yuan, but he drank with a full face of wine. It's not good to go to the gate of the palace again, Mrs. Wen and Wen Yao had to send Wen Nuo back first.
Although Song Yuan didn't drink much, he also had a smell of alcohol. When Lu Erniang saw him like this, she didn't want him to go to the palace. Song Yuan also knew that it was not good for him to pick up Lu Hong with this appearance, so he thought about renting a carriage and leaving to wait at Lu's house first.
Lu Xiang'er saw that Song Yuan's face was also a little red, so she asked Lu Erniang to go back with her, and by the way, she prepared the dishes to be made in the evening. Lu Erniang originally wanted to pick up Lu Hong in person, but it can be seen that Song Yuan was not at ease to let him leave by himself, so he had to agree.
At the gate of the restaurant, Lu Erniang helped Song Yuan to sit in the carriage she had just rented and went to the Lu family first. Lu Xiang'er, Chaoxia, and Huo Qingqing rushed to the gate of the palace in Song Yuan's wide carriage.
When the carriage arrived at the palace, the palace examination was not over. Lu Xiang'er then instructed the coachman, like any other carriage, to stop and wait. The three of them each held a stove and chatted about how Lu Hong's examination was.
Chaoxia, who was sitting on the side, didn't talk much, thinking about Mrs. Li's eyes when she looked at her for a while, and thinking of Li Wenhao for a while. In short, the feeling that the Li family gave to Chaoxia was weird, which made her more confused the more she thought about it. But when Chaoxia heard that Huo Qingqing picked up that Huo Qingsong was in the palace today and might come out with Lu Hong, Chaoxia suddenly remembered something.
Taking advantage of the pause between Huo Qingqing and Lu Xiang'er, Chaoxia suddenly interjected: "Qingqing, when we came to see off Brother Hong in the morning, we met the Zheng family. ”
As soon as Lu Xiang'er heard Chaoxia's exit, her heart moved and she quieted down. She knew that Chaoxia wanted to know how much Huo Qingsong knew from Huo Qingqing, and Lu Xiang'er also wanted to know so she stopped talking. Which Cheng thought, Huo Qingqing didn't hear what Chaoxia meant, but complained about his suffering.
"Then they're here to see Zheng Tong." When Huo Qingqing heard the Zheng family, he pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "Then the Zheng family doesn't know what to think, so they went to the General's Mansion to ask for Zheng Tong." Although I, Huo Qingqing, am just a little lady who is not outstanding, it is not that I can't get married......"
Listening to Huo Qingqing talking about Mrs. Zheng's demeanor when she came to the door, Lu Xiang'er really wanted to hold her forehead and sigh. Lu Erniang's move to leave the Zheng family now seems to be a really wise move. Otherwise, if you have a relationship with such a person, Lu Xianger will have enough headaches.
Seeing the appearance of Lu Xiang'er and Huo Qingqing, Chaoxia also sighed secretly. When Huo Qingqing stopped, she interjected again: "Qingqing, Zheng Fangfei said that His Majesty may give General Huo a flat wife, or two concubines, is this true?" ”
"Huh? How come I haven't heard? Huo Qingqing hadn't finished speaking, but he was stunned. When she saw Lu Xiang'er, she remembered something, and hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Xiang'er, you can't listen to other people's nonsense, and Zheng Fangfei's words are even more unbelievable." ”
"Xiang'er and I both know that what Zheng Fangfei said can't be done accurately. But she said that she had heard the news from Princess Jingrou. When Chaoxia saw Huo Qingqing's appearance, she knew that she knew everything. However, thinking of Princess Jingrou's personality, Chaoxia and Lu Xiang'er are afraid that it is true.
As soon as Huo Qingqing heard 'Princess Jingrou', his face turned a little red, and he said angrily: "I'm going to find my brother, I'm going to tell him that Princess Jingrou is not honest, and she starts tossing again......"
As soon as the words fell, Huo Qingqing took advantage of the fact that Lu Xiang'er and Chaoxia were distracted, lifted the curtain and jumped out of the carriage. When Lu Xiang'er saw Huo Qingqing's movements, she wanted to reach out to pull her, but it was too late.
When Lu Xiang'er lifted the curtain and was about to call Huo Qingqing back, Chaoxia stopped her and said softly: "Xiang'er, you will listen to me about this matter, let Qingqing go to Huo Qingsong." There are some things that need to be said openly......"
