Chapter 201: Clever Calculation
Zhong Yihan looked at the bowl of noodles but didn't have the heart to eat it, Lu Xiyi tapped the table with his slender jade fingers, "I said you don't want to be ignorant, it's difficult for ordinary people to eat under me." Do you eat or not? ”
Zhong Yihan reluctantly picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, then put down the chopsticks, as if he was brewing something to say, Lu Xiyi rubbed his chin and said, "If you have anything you want to ask, just ask, it won't be the prince's business today, right?" ”
Zhong Yihan nodded coldly and said, "You know what I want to ask?" Then why do you want to cooperate with Qi Yan, don't you know what kind of person he is? ”
Lu Xiyi thought for a while, and blinked innocently, "Prince!" ”
This answer made Zhong Yihan speechless, so he had to bury his head and take a big sip of noodles, Lu Xiyi hurriedly came over with a cup of tea, "Eat slowly, don't choke, isn't Zhen Guogong delicious?" Why did you come to me for dinner? ”
Zhong Yihan straightened his back and looked at her and said, "I just want to remind you that Qi Yan is very dangerous, and I have no objection if you want to cooperate with him, but don't be emotional." ”
Lu Xiyi listened to his words in a fog, watched him put down a few copper plates and turned away, and immediately shouted, "Hey, what do you mean by this?" Give me back the money. ”
Zhong Yihan didn't respond, he opened the door directly and walked out, Lu Xiyi looked at a few copper plates on the table and stomped his feet, what does this guy mean.
She cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, Shen Zhuosi reminded her, and Zhong Yihan also reminded her, could it be that Qi Yan is really an unpredictable and dangerous animal?
I thought of the jade plate I got today, who put it here for her?
Six days have passed, and still no one has come to claim it, whenever she has time, she takes the token in a daze, and thinks of what Lu Ruoling said, this is Mrs. Lu's, is it really Mrs. Lu's personal belongings?
But according to her situation, she wouldn't go to Lulu Mansion obediently and return the things to her, she wouldn't be that good person, and she would want to wrap up the jade card here.
The next morning, when I opened the door, I saw a woman dressed in tatters, sitting at the door, as if asleep, Lu Xiyi hurriedly stepped forward to wake her up and said, "Grandma, are you okay?" ”
The old woman opened her eyes and saw that it was Lu Xiyi, her eyes were full of tears, "Miss, is it you?" Lu Xiyi scratched his head, and some of the second monks were confused.
took the old woman back to the house and made her a bowl of noodles, and when the wife saw the bowl of noodles again, she burst into tears with excitement, and swallowed her stomach in three or two strokes, regardless of the burning of her mouth.
Lu Xiyi poured a bowl of tea and said, "Grandma, eat slowly, why are you at the door?" And why do you call me Miss? ”
The old woman bit off the noodles, looked at her and said, "You are the concubine of the Lu Mansion, and there is a plum blossom birthmark on your back, right?" ”
Lu Xiyi touched her waist, she didn't expect that this old woman still knew her well, nodded and said, "Yes, how do you know that I have a plum blossom birthmark on my back?" ”
The old grandmother looked at her, tears fell straight down, and suddenly knelt up in the southwest direction, "Miss, I finally found Miss..."
Lu Xiyi was startled when he saw her suddenly make such a big salute, and quickly helped her up and said, "What's the matter?" You get up first. ”
Helping the old woman up, the old woman said, "Can you let me see the birthmark on your back?" ”
Lu Xiyi was a little embarrassed, so he had to untie his clothes, anyway, everyone is a woman, and there should be nothing unspeakable.
The old grandmother looked at the plum blossom birthmark on her back and breathed a sigh of relief, "That's right, you are Miss, I finally found you." ”
Lu Xiyi closed his clothes and asked curiously, "What are you talking about?" And what is the relationship between you and the Lu government? ”
The old grandmother held her hand and said excitedly: "I am your mother's personal nurse, I entered the Lu Mansion with her, she died of a malaria many years ago, but I know that things are not so simple, she did not die of a serious illness."
Someone must be trying to harm her, and then I was kicked out of the house, wandering outside, not eating and sleeping well every day, asking for your news everywhere, I didn't dare to return to the capital, the people of the Lu family said, as long as I dare to set foot in the capital, cut off my hands and feet, I should be incognito outside, I finally found you Miss after so many years. ”
The old grandmother's tears had already wet her clothes, and Lu Xiyi frowned slightly when she heard these words like a thunderbolt from a sunny day, no wonder she faintly felt a little unstable in her heart, her mother's affairs could not be so simple.
And the mother's former nurse has actually returned to the capital, she looked at the grandmother, so she first went to the cloth village to buy two sets of clean clothes, gave her a bath, and bought her a room upstairs in the restaurant.
While helping her sort out the futon, he asked, "I don't know what to call you." ”
She was only fifty years old, but she was like a seventy-year-old, and she was physically and mentally exhausted from wandering away all these years, so her spirit became more and more haggard, and her gray silver hair and old wrinkles were all symbols of her suffering.
Lu Xiyi was a little sad, pulled her to sit down on the edge of the bed, and the woman sighed and said: "You can call me Aunt Hua, I know that I won't live long in this world, but I just want to find Miss, I want to know if Miss is doing well?"
Madame told me before she died that she would raise Miss as an adult no matter what, but I didn't expect that after going through so many things, Lu Mingde was simply not human! ”
Seeing that Aunt Hua's emotions were getting more and more excited, she hurriedly reassured: "Aunt Hua, I am no longer a young lady in Lu Mansion, I have split up, and I have opened this restaurant by myself, by the way, did you put this jade pendant in the backyard?" ”
As he spoke, he took out the piece of jade.
Aunt Hua stroked the jade plate, and couldn't help but think of the past, she and her wife entered the Lu Mansion together, and spent decades of time, but she didn't expect that once the turmoil happened, she became a prisoner and spent a dark and terrifying time.
"Yes, every lady who marries into the Lu Mansion will be rewarded with a piece of such a jade plaque by the master, and this piece of jade was quite famous in the capital back then."
"I see, why didn't you find me sooner?"
Aunt Hua looked at her and sighed deeply: "I've been secretly observing, but I haven't dared to confirm it, I asked someone to ask around, and I think you look like Miss but not like Miss, and later I heard that your surname is also Lu."
I felt a little confused in my heart, but I didn't dare to get close to Lu Fu to inquire, so I had to wander around the restaurant, and then I heard that Xiaoyao Wine was closed, and Xiaoyao Restaurant was opened, and I lost contact with you during this time.
I asked someone to bring the token to you, but the man drank too much wine and left the token on the table, so I didn't meet you. ”
