Chapter 429: Retribution

Lu You rushed to the academy step by step after seeing off the Lu family's visitors the next afternoon.

Yan Yan invited the Lu family to dinner this time, except for Lu Zhu and Lu Ming, who were out of town, they did not come, and Lu Jing did not come.

This meal was actually not pleasant, mainly because the Zhu family was unhappy, full of four or five tables, and even the aunts and grandmothers who came out of the concubine dragged their families to bring their mouths, but only her children were missing, so how could she swallow this meal?

She didn't want to come, but her husband had just come back, and the interest was so high, she didn't dare to spoil the fun; Another point, she knew that Yan Yan was deliberately embarrassing her.

In fact, whether she came or didn't come, she would lose this meal, if she didn't come, Lu Duan would definitely be dissatisfied, and let the second room and those concubines see the jokes, if she came, she really didn't want to see Yan Yan's smiling face.

But compared with the two, she still chose to come, without him, she didn't dare to offend her husband, nor could she offend the royal family behind Yan Yan.

Lu Jing didn't think about it so much, she had just been scolded by Yan Yan and Lu You two days ago, and this breath hadn't come out yet, how could she be interested in coming to Yan Yan to eat?

Lu Jing didn't come, Mrs. Lu didn't feel comfortable, she didn't rush to Yanyan, in fact, things have developed to this day, she doesn't know who to blame.

If you want to say wrong, any of these people are at fault, if Lu Ming didn't take Lu You to Yan Yan's New Year's ceremony; If you are not in a hurry to withdraw from your relatives after the original incident; If they let go of their selfishness and don't calculate, Yan Yan will marry Lu You; If the Zhu family later followed her advice and did not marry Yan Yu; If she had been more correct in her mentality over the years, and had not ignored Lu You's grandson so much, etc., then there would be no troubles now.

This is only the first step, and there are still many troubles in the future, but I am afraid that there are other hidden dangers.

It's ridiculous to say, so many smart people from the Lu Yan family worked hard to lay out a big game of chess, and in the end, only Lu You, a dumb and fool, became a fool, and the others all became losers, which is really ridiculous.

Perhaps, this is the so-called retribution.

Old Mrs. Lu no longer believes in the rhetoric of the Zhu family and Lu Ming, the original collision and retreat was not an accident at all, but a planned premeditation, otherwise, Yan Yan would not have had such a great hatred for Yan Yu.

This is one of them, and the other is that Yan Yan's talent and knowledge are not a little bit stronger than Yan Yu, but Yan Yan has never won any leadership over the years, but Yan Yu has won the championship twice in a row, which is definitely abnormal.

Third, Yan Yu obviously suffered so many grievances in the Lu family, but the Ma family not only did not dare to angrily reprimand Yan Yan, but also did not dare to ask the Zhu family for an explanation, which was also abnormal.

Therefore, after careful analysis, Mrs. Lu understood the ins and outs of the whole thing, and she said, how could this daughter-in-law suddenly have the kindness to take this concubine who can't speak out to see the world, and if she doesn't bring it sooner or later, she just brought Yan Yan's New Year's gift, which must have been with Ma's family.

Because she was not happy in her heart, Mrs. Lu didn't have much appetite, the two generations of the Lu family's wives had a bad appetite, and those who were born out of Lu Zhu, Lu Zhao, Lu Xing, and the Huang family in the second room didn't dare to laugh out loud, so this meal was really dull.

The men's table was slightly better, Lu Duan asked a lot of Lu You's homework, and saw that this son had made significant progress in knowledge, temperament and language, and was basically the same as a normal person, Lu Duan was very pleased.

For this reason, after going back, Lu Duan picked up a lot of books from his collection and sent them to Lu You, including many rare books.

Yan Yan held a meeting half a month after Lu You left, first, she needed to rest for a few days to slow down; The second is that she needs to come up with a few new dishes or snacks; Third, she will personally teach Yan Tong to make two hometown snacks of the Queen Mother, oyster fried and vegetable buns; Fourth, she also needs to prepare some ingredients.

After the menu and ingredients were listed, Yan Yan personally wrote an invitation, which indicated that it was a food tasting, and she also included the names of familiar female dependents in the invitation list, such as the eldest princess of Jinyang and Chen Chen, Mrs. Wu and Wu Xu, Mrs. Xu and Xu Ruqing, etc., of course, Yan Yan's maternal grandmother, aunt and Meng Jing, as well as Ma and Yan Tong, in addition to several families who have moved.

But this time Yan Yan didn't invite Lu Jing, she didn't come last time she was given a chance, Yan Yan didn't want to be bored.

And Yan Yan noted one thing on all the invitations, he must bring a snack that he is best at, not much, just the same.

Early this morning, Yan Yan began to be busy, and ordered someone to light the fireplace in the side hall early, and then began to put a group of shelves in the middle of the room, the shelves are used to hang calligraphy and paintings, and on both sides of the shelves are large and high tables, which are specially used for writing and painting, and there are two rows of small tables and cushions around the room for playing the piano and tasting food.

Also, there are several pots of flowers in every corner of the house, including daffodils, begonias, orchids and chrysanthemums.

To Yan Yan's surprise, the first ones to arrive were Ma and Yan Tong, saying that they were here to help Yan Yan, Yan Yan did not refuse, and took Yan Tong to take care of affairs by his side, and the second one to come to the door was the crown princess, she also said that she came to help, saying that she was afraid that Yan Yan would work.

The dishes and snacks Yan Yan has already arranged, she now has two more Qingyu Qingyun to help, and Qinghe Qingyu is also back, the business of the cake shop is handed over to Shanhua's sister-in-law, she is the master of picking eight twelve or thirteen-year-old girls from the village, and following Qinghe four to learn for half a month, she can basically take the cake shop next, so Yan Yansong is much faster, or these four people have been with her for a long time, and they can use it easily.

The third one to come to the door was Mrs. Lu and Zhu's family, Mrs. Lu didn't know that the princess came to the door at first, but she knew that Yan Yan did not invite Lu Jing, so when she saw the princess, she hurriedly sent Chunmian to Zhao's house, and asked Lu Jing to bring her daughter Zhao Yan over together, because she knew that if Lu Jing did not enter the gate of the Ming Garden again this time, I am afraid that there would be no chance to enter the Ming Garden again from now on.

She is not afraid of Yan Yan, she is also afraid of the royal family behind Yan Yan, just imagine, even the crown princess came over to help Yan Yan take care of affairs so early, what kind of friendship does this have?

Of course, Mrs. Lu also knew that Yan Yan was the biggest contributor to the prince's safe return this time, and she also knew that the prince took the crown princess and the imperial grandson Li Xi into the Ming Garden the next day after returning to the palace and stayed for a meal.

From this, Mrs. Lu figured out one thing, she was wrong to blame Yan Yan, Lu Jin is indeed the blood and blood of the Lu family, and the emperor left the dragon pendant that day, most likely because he knew that the prince was rescued, and left such a promise in order to thank Yan Yan.

In other words, the milk doll lying on the shaker is very likely to be the future granddaughter-in-law.
