Chapter 326: Conspiracy
"Mother, you don't have to worry, I believe that Fang Ruo will be fine, Fang Ruo is such a big person, don't you know the priority of things?" Lu Xiyi said that Mrs. Zhong was a little relieved when she saw her attitude.
Fortunately, Fang Ruo's disappearance has nothing to do with her, but over there in Yangzhou City, she really doesn't know how to explain it.
A few days later, Xiu'er and Mingzhu returned home with the restored gold and silver jewelry, and as soon as they returned to the mansion, they heard the news that the young lady's whereabouts were unknown, and they cried and cried for the dignitaries.
Mrs. Zhong had no choice but to lock the two maids in the house, lest they spread the news of Fang Ruo's disappearance to every corner of the capital, and if the people of Yangzhou City knew about it, her sin would be great.
In the middle of the night, Mrs. Zhong looked at Master Zhong with a heavy heart, her brows were full of worry, "Master, since that Lu Xiyi entered the mansion, this mansion has not been peaceful, first the prince sent troops to control the mansion up and down.
Now that Fang Ruo has disappeared inexplicably, do you say that these things are all related to Lu Xiyi? Or did Lu Xiyi rush our house? ”
"I said, can you not use the metaphysical one? Xi'er is our daughter-in-law, how can you say that about her as a mother?
Fang Ruo's run away must have nothing to do with her, besides, you forgot that you didn't mean to reconcile with Qing'er before, if it wasn't for the ghost idea you came up with and swapped the family letter, such a thing wouldn't have happened.
You really don't know what to say about you! Master Zhong loosened his bones and lay on the bed.
Mrs. Zhong looked at him with a dissatisfied expression and said, "Isn't it all for the sake of the entire Zhenguo Mansion?" If it weren't for my control inside and out, I wouldn't know what the chaos would have been. ”
When Master Zhong heard her say this, he turned over and got up, "Otherwise, you can teach Xi'er how to take charge of the backyard, if the family is really separated in the future, she can take on the responsibility of a hostess, no matter what, she is also a marquise." ”
"Sir, what do you mean by that? Do you think it's bad for me to be in charge of the backyard? I'm in such a hurry to let you, the eldest daughter-in-law, come and share the housework with me, where is the master doing this? ”
Mrs. Zhong said as she spoke, pursed her lips aggrievedly, and wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, Master Zhong thought she was crying, so he hurriedly stepped forward and held her shoulder and said, "I didn't mean that, think about it, one day, Qing'er and Han'er will have to stand on their own."
At that time, they are also the number one in the court, and they must let Mrs. take charge of the backyard for them, if the backyard is not good, the front yard will not be peaceful, don't you remember the historical example? ”
When Mrs. Zhong heard this, she sighed with a sad face, and Chu Chu frowned pitifully and said, "I understand, the master either thinks I'm useless, or I just want that Lu Xiyi to play a role." ”
"Madame understands my intentions, and don't say these sad words again in the future."
Early the next morning, Lu Xiyi changed into court clothes for Zhong Yihan, and today he wants to accompany his father-in-law to the court, of course, he has to dress up in spirit.
When she sent Zhong Yihan out, she smelled a smell of wine in the yard, she sniffed, and said depressedly: "You didn't drink yesterday, where did the smell of wine come from in this yard?" ”
As he spoke, his eyes turned around, and he saw Zhong Yiqing lying on the side of the steps, and angrily stepped forward and kicked his ass and said, "What's the matter with you?" Why did you sleep here? ”
Lu Yin and Zi Yan rushed over and said, "Why is the second young master here?" If you don't hurry up, help the second young master back to the Lotus Garden. ”
After that, a group of subordinates came to carry Zhong Yiqing away, but Zhong Yiqing seemed to be still half-awake and half-confused, waving his hand, with an angry face, "Don't touch me, I'm here, I'll wait for Fangruo to come back." ”
Lu Xiyi said angrily: "What are you doing here waiting for Fang Ruo to come back?" ”
"I'm going to wait here for Fang Ruo to come back, don't any of you try to stop me......" Zhong Yiqing hugged the wine jar in his arms and said in a daze.
The strong smell of wine made her a little breathless, she got up and looked at Zhong Yihan, and said with a gentle face: "You go to the court first, don't delay the business, I'll solve the matter here." ”
Zhong Yihan lowered his eyebrows, looked at Lu Xiyi and said, "Then you be careful, I'll go first." After watching his figure walk away, Lu Xiyi's expression changed, a trace of arrogance flashed in his eyes, he turned his wrist, and gave an order to the crowd: "Throw him to the Lotus Garden for me, and without my permission in the future, I can't let Zhong Yiqing step into the Lama Hall."
When you see the shadow of the second young master, you immediately drive him away, do you understand? ”
"Understood."
Lu Yin and Zi Yan bowed their heads and forgot about each other, but they didn't expect the eldest lady to become so majestic after the eldest prince left, and everyone carried Zhong Yiqing to the Lotus Garden together and threw it in mercilessly.
Lu Xiyi stretched her waist, slept beautifully, and fell asleep, but found that she had delayed the time to say goodbye, she screamed, and Lu Yin hurriedly ran in with a hot water basin and said, "Madam, what's wrong with you?" ”
"What's wrong with me, you're still asking? Why didn't you call me in time? It's all gone. ”
Lu Yin looked at the sky outside and said: "Madam, just now the old lady said that there is no need to ask for peace in the morning, and also said that I want to invite you to go to the Green Bamboo Garden at noon, and I want to discuss some things with you." ”
Lu Xiyi took a deep breath, "So that's the case, I'm so scared that I thought I was delayed, it's okay, it's okay, since it's noon and you call me again, then I'll sleep for a while, remember to call me if you have something." ”
Lu Yin nodded, watched Mrs. fall asleep again, shook her head helplessly, as soon as noon arrived, Lu Yin washed her, Lu Xiyi came to the Green Bamboo Garden unhurriedly, where a row of bamboos was planted, the scenery is very elegant, many people who came to Zhenguo Mansion will definitely take a turn here.
If it is placed in modern times, it must be another scenery that can be seen, the layout of the garden is unique, each place is carved with lifelike phoenixes and some statues of rare and exotic beasts, from here you can observe a lot of scenery every few steps, which is pleasing to the eye.
Lu Xiyi saw the old lady in the courtyard, her eyes lit up, and she stepped forward to salute, "Daughter-in-law greets mother, mother, are you not feeling well in the morning?" The daughter-in-law was originally going to go with you to say goodbye, but I heard Lu Yin say, you don't need it here, what's wrong mother? ”
Lu Xiyi looked at her with a well-behaved face, because there had just been a rain in the Green Bamboo Garden a few days ago, the air here became very humid and clear, which made people feel comfortable.
"Come and sit down, this is the oolong tea that has just been brewed."
Madame Zhong, as always, showed a gentle smile.
