Chapter 153 The Wedding Date Has Been Set
[Chapter 4, Volume 4]
Section 153 Chapter 153 The date of marriage has been set
Lu Xiang'er looked at the lake with a look of surprise and disbelief, but this attracted the attention of the little lady next to her. This little lady is the one who just pulled Lu Xiang'er, if it weren't for her, Lu Xiang'er would have fallen into the lake a long time ago.
Originally, this little lady was also handy, and she didn't care about anything. But Lu Xiang'er didn't even say 'thank you', which made her very confused. Seeing Lu Xiang'er looking straight at the other side, the little lady thought she was looking at those sons. But she found that she was wrong, but the person Lu Xianger was looking at was the little lady.
I don't know what it is, the little lady who usually never talks to strangers looks at the little lady and says softly: "That little lady's name is He Ya, and she is the daughter of Lord He Shenghe, the head of the household. I heard that He Ya was not in good health when she was born, so she was taken away by a master of Taoism, and only returned to He Mansion a few days ago. ”
"...... a few days ago" Lu Xiang'er was slightly stunned when she heard this, and her heart was really her. But after thinking about it, Lu Xiang'er realized that these words were said by the people around her. At this time, Lu Xiang'er remembered that she almost fell into the lake just now, and it was the people around her who pulled her.
Thinking of this, Lu Xiang'er immediately turned her head and said, "This little lady, I haven't thanked you for saving me just now, it's really rude." ”
"It's okay, I just took it easy." The little lady and Lu Xiang'er looked at each other, they were both stunned, they didn't expect to meet such an outstanding little lady in this place. And when they met for the first time, the two felt that each other was a lovely little lady. This is the second time that Lu Xianger has such a feeling after meeting Chaoxia again.
Just when Lu Xiang'er was about to say something, a young man who was three or four points similar to the little lady opposite squeezed over and said to the little lady: "Sister, let's go back, I think it should be quiet in the house at this time." By the way, I also have to buy some pickles that my grandmother loves to eat, so that she won't be angry with me again. ”
"Alright then, brother, let's go back." The little lady smiled at Lu Xiang'er and prepared to leave with the son. And the son only found Lu Xiang'er at this time, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly regained his calm. He saw his sister smiling at Lu Xiang'er, and nodded before leaving with the little lady. When the brother and sister walked out, the boy glanced at the luxurious painting boat in the lake, and his face showed a trace of disdain.
Lu Xiang'er watched the brother and sister disappear into the crowd before turning to look at the painting boat on the lake. Finding Xiang Qingya, who is now He Ya, Lu Xiang'er was very puzzled, how could she become the daughter of the household servant, her biological father was not King Chen. However, these are not the most important things for Lu Xianger. Lu Xiang'er cares most about Lu Hong, she is in Beijing, will she meet Lu Hong. After the meeting, what kind of mood will Lu Hong have, Lu Xianger was a little melancholy.
After confirming that what Liao Wenbo said was true, Lu Xianger took the carriage back to her home in Xishi with a heavy heart. When she arrived at the door, Lu Xiang'er saw that it was not too early, so she asked Tie Ge'er to pick up Yuan Musheng and his wife home. She watched Tie Ge'er leave before she pushed open the door and walked into the house.
But when I walked into the courtyard, I saw Xiao Wu and Zao'er standing honestly under the eaves of the main house, and their faces seemed to be a little uneasy. But in the main house, there was a quiet. Seeing this, Lu Xiang'er's heart sank, and she immediately walked quickly to the main room, guessing what had happened in her heart.
When Zao'er saw Lu Xiang'er, she seemed to be relieved, and hurriedly whispered: "The little lady is back, the lady, the little lady of Chaoxia, and the son are all in the house." ”
"Oh, I see. Zao'er, it's not early, you go and prepare dinner. Lu Xiang'er paused, glanced at Zao'er, and said to Xiao Wu: "Xiao Wu, you go and help Zao'er make a fire, make a pot of tea first." ”
"Yes, little lady." Zao'er and Xiao Wu listened to Lu Xiang'er's instructions, and immediately walked to the kitchen in the backyard.
Lu Xiang'er's voice when she spoke did not deliberately lower it, and the people in the room knew that she knew. Lu Hong's voice sounded first: "Xiang'er, you're back, come in quickly." ”
"Brother, Xiang'er is coming in." Lu Xiang'er replied and walked into the main room. Listening to Lu Hong's voice, Lu Xiang'er walked towards Lu Erniang's bedroom without pause.
Pushing open the door, Lu Xiang'er found that Lu Erniang was sitting on the bed with an ugly face, Chaoxia was also in a hurry, and Lu Hong's performance was not too obvious. But Lu Xiang'er still saw a lot of resentment in Lu Hong's eyes.
"What's going on?" Lu Xiang'er smiled first, and then walked to Lu Erniang to sit next to her, secretly looking at the performance on the faces of several people.
Lu Erniang looked at Lu Xiang'er, her lips moving slightly. After a while, she said softly: "Xiang'er, if A-Niang marries into the Guogong Mansion, it's good for you to go with A-Niang." Come to think of it, the old man and him are also willing. ”
"Auntie, everyone marries with objects, but you let me be the dowry." Lu Xiang'er smiled and did not agree with Lu Erniang's consent. She also knew that Lu Erniang would definitely worry about herself, so she looked at Lu Hong and said, "A-Niang, don't worry, you have entered the Guogong Mansion, don't you still have my brother and Sister Chaoxia at home." Even if Sister Chaoxia is married, and her brother is married, Xiang'er is not alone. ”
"Auntie, Xiang'er is right, as long as I am here, I will definitely not let others bully Xiang'er." Lu Hong had been persuading Lu Erniang before, but unfortunately it had no effect. Seeing Lu Xiang'er say a few words at this time, Lu Erniang's expression seemed to have changed a little, and Lu Hong hurriedly expressed his position.
In fact, Lu Erniang also knows Lu Xiang'er's temperament, and she will definitely not follow her to the Guogong Mansion to live a life under the fence. Thinking of the person she met today, as well as their mother and son, Lu Erniang glanced at Lu Xiang'er very worriedly. Lu Erniang is sure that the little lady who is eight points like her mother, as well as her brother, will not just forget it.
Lu Erniang was thinking about things in her heart, and she didn't hide her expression on her face, so that Lu Xiang'er could see it clearly. Lu Xiang'er looked at Chaoxia, who had been silent and had a gloomy face, and suddenly understood a little. Lu Erniang and Chaoxia may have encountered something at today's party.
Thinking that Lu Erniang was here, Lu Xiang'er didn't want to ask, so she said: "A-Niang, I've been busy all day today, and I'm a little hungry." The dishes made by jujube are not as delicious as those made by A-Niang. ”
"Oh, it's all this time, I'll go to the kitchen and have a look." When Lu Erniang heard Lu Xiang'er say this, she found that the room had darkened, and hurriedly got up and went out.
At this time, Xiao Wu also walked in with a pot of tea. When Lu Hong saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward and poured himself a cup of tea: "I was persuaded just now that my mouth was dry, but I was thirsty." Sister Chaoxia, don't be angry, talk to Xiang'er. What A-Niang said just now was vague, and I didn't understand much. ”
"Sister Chaoxia, what happened?" When Lu Xiang'er heard Lu Hong say this, she moved to Chaoxia's side and sat down. Chaoxia took the tea that Lu Hong poured for her, but she didn't drink it but held it in her hand, and slowly talked about today's party.
It is said that today's meeting was held in the Taifu Mansion that had just been Zhishi. This old lady's surname is Wen Mingli, and she is also an important minister in the court who is similar to Song Beiqiao, and she is very valued by His Majesty the Emperor. Moreover, the sister of Concubine Song in the harem is still the daughter-in-law of Wen Taifu, and the status of the Wen family in Beijing is not low. Some time ago, Wen Taifu Zhishi, but his son Wen Nuo had just been promoted to Dali Qing. The glory of the Wen family is undiminished, and it is naturally a good city.
I heard that Mrs. Wen was going to choose a wife for Wen Song, the eldest grandson of the Wen family, and many noble ladies who received the invitation came to this party with their children. Even if his daughter can't get into the eyes of Mrs. Wen, she can have long eyes for her son.
The relationship between the Wen family and the Guogong Mansion is also good, so naturally they know that Song Yuan wants to marry a married lady. Although Mrs. Wen looked down on Song Yuan's actions, she also sent a post to Lu Erniang through the nurse Zheng of the General's Mansion in the way.
Although Lu Erniang didn't like such an occasion, in order to adapt to this kind of life and for Chaoxia, she took Chaoxia to Wenfu with Zheng and Huo Qingqing. Unexpectedly, at this party, Lu Erniang found that Zheng Baiyang's wife also came with her daughter.
That Mrs. Zheng was also very surprised when she saw Lu Erniang in the Wen Mansion. Through inquiry, I learned that Lu Erniang was already the future wife of the Song State Mansion, and this Mrs. Zheng was naturally envious, jealous and hateful. So, when the ladies sat down to speak, Mrs. Zheng used language to squeeze Lu Erniang. Moreover, she also let everyone present know that Lu Erniang was a lady with a son and a daughter, and a daughter of unknown origin.
Mrs. Zheng's intentions were obvious, but she didn't get much of her support. Although these ladies were influenced by Mrs. Zheng in their hearts, they looked down on Lu Erniang. But behind Lu Erniang is the Guogong Mansion, and they can't help but be careful. Song Yuan's feat of rampaging through the capital division back then was not known to many people.
When Mrs. Zheng's daughter saw her mother, she didn't move Lu Erniang at all, and she was sarcastically embarrassed by Huo Qingqing's nurse, so she also hated Lu Erniang. She knew that she was a junior and couldn't sit with her elders, so she hit Chaoxia's body with her idea. But who is Chaoxia, how can she suffer a dark loss, but let Zheng Xiaoniang 'steal the chicken and lose a handful of rice', and there is an ugly one among the little ladies. Huo Qingqing didn't want to let her go, so he mocked her for a while. As a result, Zheng Xiaoniang hated Chaoxia and the Lu family.
"When I came out of the Wen Mansion, I saw the look in the eyes of the mother and daughter, they wouldn't just forget it." Chaoxia looked outside the house, then looked at Lu Xiang'er, and lowered her voice: "I'm not afraid of anything else, I'm afraid that they will hurt my stepmother, and you." ”
"They don't think about it." After hearing what Chaoxia said, Lu Hong's eyes showed a ruthless color that he had never seen before, and he said in a deep voice: "I am going to discuss the marriage date with Mr. Song today." When the list is released on the trial list, it will be the day when A-Niang marries into the national government. As for Xiang'er, with me here, no one wants to hurt my sister......"
