Section 168 Chapter 168 Opening of the Distillery (1)

Lu Xiang'er, Lu Hong and Chaoxia temporarily 'retreated' and did not enter the Guogong Mansion, and they were very sad for a while after being known by Lu Erniang. Fortunately, with Song Yuan's company and persuasion, Lu Erniang did not show her mood when facing the three children. However, Lu Erniang may have compensated for the 'grievances' suffered by Lu Xiang'er and the three of them, and after finishing the affairs of the Guogong Mansion, she returned to the Lu family to visit the three of them.

"It's still delicious food cooked by Auntie." Lu Xiang'er ignored the 'lady image' she was raising and stuffed her mouth with food. And Lu Hong was even more unbearable, since the meal was served, he kept his head down and never raised it. Only Chaoxia still looks like a little lady, her movements are elegant, and she has a little meaning. However, it would have been more perfect if she had swung her chopsticks less often.

Lu Erniang looked at the appearance of the three of them, smiling, but she understood in her heart. The new mother-in-law and grand-in-law who cooked at home, but Song Yuan finally found it. Grandma Sun's craftsmanship is first-class, and even Lu Erniang herself has eaten the dishes she makes, and she is ashamed of herself. But Lu Xiang'er and the three of them only said that the food cooked by Lu Erniang was delicious, how could Lu Erniang not know that what the three of them wanted to eat was this 'atmosphere'.

"Xiang'er, in a few days, your winery will open." Lu Erniang served vegetables for the three of them, and at the same time motioned to Zao'er, who came back with her, to serve the soup. In her heart, she was thinking about Lu Xiang'er's wine shop.

Lu Xiang'er was almost finished eating at this time, so she put down her chopsticks and let out a long breath, before nodding and saying, "Well, what A-Niang said is right, there are two more days, which will be the day when the wine shop opens." If it weren't for A-Niang coming today, we would still be busy in the wine shop. ”

"Oh, what are you busy with, do you want A-Niang to help too." When Lu Erniang came, she also saw the exhaustion of Lu Xiang'er and the others, so she thought about helping too.

When Lu Hong saw Zao'er bring out the soup, he immediately got up and took it, and said, "A-Niang, I don't need you, there are a lot of people helping in the wine shop now." ”

"Yes, stepmother. You can stay in the Guogong Mansion with peace of mind, or come and see us at home. Thinking of the people in the winery, a complicated look flashed in Chaoxia's eyes.

Since he met Li Wenhao outside the Guogong Mansion that night, he didn't know why, so he took the initiative to find Lu Hong to intersect with him. Although Lu Hong felt that Li Wenhao had some purpose, he felt that Li Wenhao was decent from his acquaintance with him, so he did not snub him too much. Therefore, Li Wenhao quickly became acquainted with several members of the Lu family, and deliberately talked to Lu Xianger and Chaoxia.

For Lu Xiang'er, Li Wenhao has already been 'warned' by Huo Qingsong, and he can still pay attention to some proportions. But for Chaoxia, Li Wenhao didn't care about Chaoxia's 'no one is close' face at all. Every time he came to the winery, he would talk to Chaoxia for a while, although he said ten words, Chaoxia may not say two, but Li Wenhao did not have a little disappointed.

As for the fourth prince, Zhao Chengmin, I don't know if he felt something, or if he had a sense of crisis. When he saw Li Wenhao's 'closeness' to Chaoxia, his face was very bad. In fact, Zhao Chengmin also privately approached Li Wenhao and said that Chaoxia was the person he fancied. But Li Wenhao nodded on the surface, and he remained the same afterwards. Zhao Chengmin, who was angry, had no reason to prevent Li Wenhao from meeting Chaoxia, so he could only come to the wine shop often.

Chaoxia was really annoyed by Zhao Chengmin and Li Wenhao, but she couldn't do anything. No matter how you say that the identities of the two are noble, they are all things that she, a common person, can offend. If this had been placed before, Chaoxia would definitely clean up the two of them and then float away.

Seeing Chaoxia's face, Lu Hong was a little stunned, and he didn't know what to say. Speaking of which, if it weren't for Lu Hong's indulgence, Li Wenhao would not have become more and more familiar with him, and he would be lazy in the wine shop all day long. Fortunately, Li Wenhao seemed to know something, and he didn't rush to Lu's house to recognize the door, otherwise Lu Hong really didn't know what to do.

Lu Xianger didn't know Li Wenhao's goal, but she could see that he seemed to be very interested in Chaoxia. Compared with the fourth prince Zhao Chengmin, Lu Xianger still thinks that Chaoxia and Li Wenhao are much more suitable than Zhao Chengmin. However, she doesn't have time to worry about Chaoxia now, and Lu Xiang'er is also in trouble.

Thinking of Huo Qingsong, Lu Xiang'er's face was also a little unsightly. Lu Erniang kept looking at Lu Xiang'er, of course she didn't miss the look on her face. is the so-called knowing daughter Mo Ruomu, Lu Erniang thought for a while, and then understood who Lu Xiang'er's angry and anxious face was for.

"Xiang'er, you're almost at the end of your life, and there are some things to consider." Lu Erniang sent the soup to Lu Xiang'er and said softly: "No matter what you think, A-Niang will not interfere." As long as you think it's right, A-Niang will support you. ”

"Auntie, Xiang'er knows. However, Sister Chaoxia is older than Xiang'er, so she should be close to Sister Chaoxia first. Lu Xiang'er stuck out her tongue at Chaoxia and pushed her out. Chaoxia immediately gave Lu Xiang'er a fierce look, expressing her dissatisfaction.

Lu Hong saw that Lu Erniang's gaze fell on his body from Chaoxia's body again, and hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Ah Niang, have you found it?" Sister Chaoxia and Xiang'er seem to be more and more alike, and when the two of them walked to the winery, many people thought they were sisters. ”

"Hey, Brother Hong didn't say it, A-Niang really didn't find out." Lu Erniang looked at Chaoxia, looked at Lu Xiang'er again, and sure enough, she forgot to talk about the marriage of the three of them.

Lu Hong secretly snickered, nodded again and again on the surface and said, "Speaking of which, if Brother Li hadn't told me, I wouldn't have felt it." ”

Chaoxia and Lu Xiang'er couldn't help but look at each other when they saw Lu Erniang's serious expression. But after watching it for a long time, the two didn't feel where they looked alike. Seeing the flashing joy in Lu Hong's eyes, Lu Xiang'er and Chaoxia understood something, so they didn't refute it, and recognized Lu Erniang looking at them back and forth.

After lunch, Lu Xiang'er and Chaoxia, and Lu Hong accompanied Lu Erniang to talk for a while, and then got up and prepared to go to the winery. In two days, the winery will open, and Lu Xianger has a lot of things to do. Even distilling those liquors that have been fermented to the optimal time are a little too busy. Lu Erniang also knew her identity at this time, and it was not appropriate to go to the wine shop to help, so she went out of the house with Lu Xianger and returned to the mansion.

When Lu Xianger and the three of them came to the winery, they found that Huo Qingsong's brothers and sisters, Wen Yao, Li Wenhao, and His Royal Highness the Four Princes had already arrived at the winery. Seeing these people who were more punctual than their own masters, Lu Xiang'er and the three of them were relatively speechless, their faces were melancholy, and they entered the wine shop with a strange mood.

……

"It's finally time to take a break. Tomorrow we will have a day off, and the brewery will open the day after tomorrow. After that, it's time for my brother to take the temple exam. Looking at the gradually darkening sky through the window, Lu Xiang'er, who had already extinguished the fire in the stove, stretched out her body and squinted her eyes and stretched out.

However, Lu Xiang'er suddenly felt everything, and immediately looked at the door. I saw Huo Qingsong in a robe, I don't know when, standing behind her and looking at her. Lu Xiang'er was stunned for a moment, then remembered her posture at this time, and immediately put down her hands.

Thinking of her 'laziness' just now, being seen by Huo Qingsong, Lu Xiang'er's face immediately turned red, and she said with some annoyance: "Why don't you make a sound when you walk." ”

"When I was in Jiangnan, I often attacked the rebels, and I got used to it." Huo Qingsong received his gaze when Lu Xiang'er turned around, and he didn't seem to see Lu Xiang'er's shyness. Therefore, his tone was light, as if he didn't think he was rude at all.

When Lu Xiang'er heard Huo Qingsong say this, a wave of anger immediately appeared in her heart. She wanted to say, you treated me like a rebel, didn't you? can think of Huo Qingsong's face that has not changed for thousands of years, Lu Xiang'er is afraid that whatever he says, he will not change anything.

"I'm here to ask you, have you changed your mind about me?" Huo Qingsong looked at the well in the courtyard, but all his spirit was always paying attention to Lu Xiang'er's movements.

Lu Xiang'er didn't expect Huo Qingsong to suddenly ask this sentence, her heartbeat immediately accelerated, and her expression was a little unnatural. But her mouth said: "What a change, why can't I understand what you want to say." ”

"I don't think I need to say it so clearly." Huo Qingsong slowly turned his head and looked at Lu Xiang'er, his tone was a little light, but he was very serious: "I can wait, as long as you are not married, I can wait." ”

"Wait, wait for what, I, I...... I'm going to see my brother. Lu Xiang'er was overwhelmed by Huo Qingsong's serious tone, her mind was at a loss, and her hands and feet moved uncontrollably. Huo Qingsong looked at Lu Xiang'er's appearance, but he didn't stop her and let her leave. However, he sighed slightly in his heart.

But when Lu Xiang'er was about to walk into the room in front of her, she paused and said in a low voice: "I, I haven't finished yet, so I don't want to think about this for the time being." ”

After speaking, Lu Xiang'er disappeared behind the door, leaving only two doors that were a little shaky. Huo Qingsong was slightly stunned, and quickly turned his head to look at the door, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes were full of smiles. However, thinking of the news from the palace, Huo Qingsong's face turned cold again, and there seemed to be a chill exuding from his body.

"Hey, who dared to pull teeth out of the tiger's mouth and provoke our General Huo." Li Wenhao shook a folding fan and walked over step by step, looking very comfortable.

Huo Qingsong glanced at Li Wenhao, walked past him, and threw down a sentence: "Beware of being sick and unable to participate in the palace examination, it's really 'demeanor not temperature'." ”

'Poof-' Li Wenhao couldn't help but hold his breath when he heard the second half of the sentence, and only laughed out loud after a while: "It's not that I'm angry, it's that I'm in a good mood." 'Be graceful, not warm', interesting, this sentence seems to be what she said......"

After Li Wenhao laughed, he put away the fan, looked up at the stove and was a little distracted. After a while, he said to himself: "I think those generals have taken over the affairs of the frontier, and my father and mother will return soon." I just don't know ...... them."
