125 Chapter 125 Knowing Everything
The Lu family of four finished their first meal after separation, and then 'dispersed'. Lu Xiang'er, who also wanted to go back to the room, was stared at by Lu Erniang very closely, so she had to stay with her. Thinking of Lu Hong and Chaoxia, who were unrighteous, Lu Xiang'er pulled Lu Erniang to gossip.
Lu Erniang felt that Lu Xiang'er and the three of them were a little strange from the time they were eating, and after the meal, Chaoxia and Lu Hong slipped away quickly, and Lu Erniang felt that these three people had something to hide from them. Listening to Lu Xiang'er say some trivial things, Lu Erniang quietly took Lu Xiang'er back to her room.
After closing the door, Lu Erniang's face turned pale, and she looked at Lu Xiang'er and asked seriously, "Xiang'er, did you have something that happened in Jiangling Mansion that I don't know?" ”
"No, A-Niang." When Lu Xiang'er saw Lu Erniang's complexion, she was a little unnatural. With a roll of her eyes, Lu Xiang'er opened her mouth and yawned, and said as if she was tired: "Auntie, I haven't slept peacefully for a long time, and I really want to sleep well." ”
As she spoke, Lu Xianger took off her shoes and went to bed. Lu Erniang, who wanted to say something, saw that Lu Xiang'er's expression was a little tired, so she sighed lightly and put the words she wanted to ask back into her stomach. However, she didn't plan to let Lu Xiang'er hide like this. After calculating in her heart, Lu Erniang also went to bed and lay down beside Lu Xiang'er.
Lu Erniang didn't ask, and Lu Xiang'er's mind slowly relaxed. This relaxation, sleepiness hit her head. Thinking that Lu Erniang was by her side, Lu Xiang'er quickly closed her eyes and fell asleep. But Lu Erniang didn't feel sleepy, still looking at Lu Xiang'er beside her.
From Song Yuan, I knew that Lu Xiang'er, Lu Hong, and Chaoxia were going to come to Beijing, but Lu Erniang didn't have a moment of leisure. From arranging the accommodation of the three of them to going grocery shopping, Lu Erniang did it all herself. Although she hadn't been so tired for a long time, her heart was full of joy. Now that her children and righteous daughter have come to Lu Erniang's side, she is really a little excited and can't sleep.
After looking at Lu Xiang'er for half an hour, Lu Erniang felt a little sleepy, so she was ready to go and put out the lights in the house. But when Lu Erniang was together, Lu Xiang'er moved, her brows furrowed tightly. Moreover, she also made a muffled murmur. Lu Erniang felt strange in her heart, and just wanted to push Lu Xiang'er, but saw a line of tears welling up from the corners of her eyes.
These tears shocked Lu Erniang, and in her memory, Lu Xianger rarely shed tears. When she went to pick up Lu Xiang'er and the three of them at the city gate before, although Lu Xiang'er also cried, Lu Erniang thought that she hadn't seen her for a long time. Thinking about it now, Lu Xianger at that time was not just crying, but crying. There seemed to be some grievance in that cry.
thought that it must have been something that happened to Lu Xiang'er when the three of them were in Jiangling Mansion to make Lu Xiang'er like this. Lu Erniang really wanted to call Lu Xiang'er up and ask her. But after hesitating for a while, Lu Erniang finally withdrew her hand. Sitting on the edge of the bed and thinking about it, Lu Erniang put on the clothes she had taken off and left the room gently.
Standing at the door of the room, Lu Erniang looked at the starry sky, and Lu Xiang'er always had tears in her mind. Sighing softly, Lu Erniang raised her feet and walked towards the west across the courtyard. Entering the courtyard, Lu Erniang saw that the lights were still on in Chaoxia's room, and turned around and walked out.
About half an hour, Lu Erniang walked into the West Cross Courtyard again with a bowl of egg custard. Coming to Chaoxia's door, Lu Erniang knocked lightly on the door: "Chaoxia, it's your stepmother, have you slept?" ”
"Mother-in-law, Chaoxia hasn't slept yet." As Asaka spoke, the door opened. Chaoxia, who was clothed, looked at Lu Erniang very suspiciously, and said, "Mother-in-law, why haven't you rested yet?" ”
"Oh, I saw that your room was lit, so I came and looked." followed Chaoxia into the house, and Lu Erniang put the egg custard on the table. Seeing the book on Chaoxia's bed, Lu Erniang continued: "I knew you were reading, so I went to steam a bowl of egg custard. You didn't eat anything at the dinner table just now, and you should be hungry. ”
"Thank you, mother-in-law, Chaoxia is really hungry." Chaoxia helped Lu Erniang to sit at the table, and sat beside her, picked up the porcelain spoon and drank the egg custard quietly.
Chaoxia knew that Lu Erniang came to her room, and she must have wanted to ask about Jiangling Mansion. Although Chaoxia was very reluctant to tell Lu Erniang that the person who happened was her, Lu Erniang had already asked her head, and she would not avoid it like Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong.
To be honest, after Chaoxia was rescued by Lu Xianger and returned to the Lu family, Lu Erniang was really like a daughter to her. For as long as she can remember, Chaoxia has been wandering around with her father-in-law Wang Zhen. Although Wang Zhen treats Chaoxia like a daughter, he is a man after all, so he is not as careful as a mother. Chaoxia has grown so big, and she has never met a person like Lu Erniang, who will steam a bowl of egg custard for her at such a late hour. This feeling of being cared for and taken care of, Chaoxia really likes it and enjoys it. Therefore, Chaoxia is also very reluctant to deceive Lu Erniang.
Lu Erniang didn't know that Chaoxia was eating egg custard, and she would think of so many things in her heart. She poured herself a cup of herbal tea, and while drinking it, she looked at Chaoxia, and she was also thinking about how to ask. Lu Erniang also knew that Chaoxia never lied to her, and if she embarrassed Chaoxia, she didn't want to do that.
But Lu Erniang didn't expect that Chaoxia put down the spoon after eating the egg custard, and said softly: "Mother-in-law, do you want to know what happened to Xiang'er and Brother Hong in Jiangling Mansion." ”
"Chaoxia, if you are embarrassed, I can also ask Xiang'er or Brother Hong tomorrow." Lu Erniang suddenly felt that she seemed to be coming by mistake, patted Chaoxia's hand, and wanted to go back to her room to sleep. But Chaoxia grabbed Lu Erniang, looked at her and said, "Mother-in-law, it's up to me to talk about it." If you let Xiang'er or Brother Hong tell you, it will only make you feel more distressed. ”
"Distressed? What really happened to you in Gangneung Province? When Lu Erniang heard Chaoxia say this, she hurriedly sat down and grabbed Chaoxia's hand in turn, looking at her very eagerly.
Seeing Lu Erniang's expression, Chaoxia first said: "Mother-in-law, you have to be clear that Xiang'er and Brother Hong are by your side at this time, and the two of them have nothing to do now." ”
"I know, I know, you name it." Lu Erniang understood what Chaoxia meant, but she didn't want her to be too anxious, so she nodded hurriedly.
Chaoxia sighed helplessly, and began to talk about the small square in front of the Jiangling Mansion where she left the Jingshi and returned to Jiangling Mansion, and rescued Lu Xiang'er, who was about to be taken away. Although Chaoxia's temperament is slowly changing, there are some things in her body that can't be changed. For example, when talking to people, her tone is always unfluctuating, and her speech is simple and to the point.
However, Lu Erniang listened very carefully and did not let go of every word Chaoxia said. When she heard that Lu Xiang'er was abducted and Lu Hong was injured, Lu Erniang grabbed Chaoxia's hand and kept tightening. It wasn't until Chaoxia finished speaking that Lu Erniang suddenly got up and was about to walk out of the room.
When Chaoxia saw this, she understood that Lu Erniang wanted to go to see Lu Xiang'er and Lu Hong, so she also stood up and wanted to accompany her. But Lu Erniang took two steps, but suddenly turned around and came to Chaoxia again. The serious look on Lu Erniang's face was a little strange when she saw Chaoxia stunned.
"Asaka, are you injured too?" Although Chaoxia didn't talk too much about herself, Lu Erniang could feel that Chaoxia was hiding something from her.
Chaoxia was slightly stunned, hurriedly lowered her head, and said in a normal tone: "Mother-in-law, Chaoxia is a little injured. However, it's not serious, don't you think I'm fine now? ”
"Let me see the wound." Chaoxia is never good at lying, how could Lu Erniang not see it, so she stepped forward again and stared at Chaoxia's eyes. Chaoxia really couldn't withstand Lu Erniang's eyes, so she had to look at the wound in her abdomen.
Seeing that hideous scar, Lu Erniang's tears flowed down as soon as she 'brushed' it. This startled Chaoxia, and just wanted to comfort Lu Erniang, but Lu Erniang turned around and walked out of the room quickly. Seeing Lu Erniang's appearance, Chaoxia hurriedly got dressed and followed out.
Lu Erniang came to the main room and just wanted to walk in, but suddenly stopped. She took a deep look at the room that was still lit, and then turned and entered the East Cross Courtyard. Chaoxia looked at Lu Erniang's room and knew that Lu Xiang'er was inside, but she didn't understand why Lu Erniang didn't go in. However, she continued to follow Lu Erniang into Lu Hong's courtyard.
"Brother Hong, open the door, it's A-Niang." Lu Erniang saw that there was no light in Lu Hong's room, but she didn't stop, and stepped forward a few steps to knock on the door.
Lu Hong in the house seemed to be asleep, and after a long while, a voice came out: "A-Niang, wait a minute, I'll open the door immediately." ”
"A-Niang, it's so late, why are you still ......" Lu Hong opened the door and saw Lu Erniang and Chaoxia. And Chaoxia, who was standing behind Lu Erniang, was still glancing at him. Seeing Chaoxia's small movements, Lu Hong immediately understood that Lu Erniang already knew everything.
Thinking of this, Lu Hong ignored Lu Erniang's tense face and said with a smile: "A-Niang, you are so late, is there something wrong with coming to find your son?" ”
Lu Erniang pushed Lu Hong away without saying a word, and after she walked into the room and sat at the table, she said coldly: "Take off your clothes." ”
"Ah, take off, undress." Lu Hong looked at Chaoxia, a little unsure what Lu Erniang was doing with his wounds. But Lu Erniang kept staring at him, and Lu Hong had to take off his robe to reveal his strong upper body. But Chaoxia didn't know whether she should go out or not, so she had to quickly turn her head.
Lu Erniang glanced at Lu Hong's wound a few times, her face changed a few times, and finally sighed. When she looked at Lu Hong again, Lu Erniang's tone was a little cold: "Lu Hong, if you never forget it in the future, the woman who wants your sister's life all the time, I, Lu Erniang, will not have this son." ”
