Chapter 27: Lu Lin's wife
The prefect Lu Xiangnian finally couldn't rest assured that his spoiled daughter was still relieved, and rushed to Yuan Street to apologize to the Bai family, but after all, he was still a step too late, only to see the hustle and bustle of the crowd, and there were bursts of congratulatory voices inside, a young man held the hydrangea in his hand and smirked, and the folding fan under his feet had already been broken by himself.
"Miss Lu, I got it!" Although Wang Yicai no longer stuttered when he spoke at this moment, he was a little more shy.
Upstairs, Lu Linwen looked at the initiator indignantly, shook her head, and the pink-shirted maid beside her nodded clearly and walked down the colorful building.
After watching the excitement, Cui Ranxin was pulled by Cui Jiuan and was just about to leave, but was interrupted by the crisp voice of the girl in the pink shirt: "Please also ask the son to stay, I just saw it upstairs, the colored ball was touched by the son first before it fell into the hands of Wang Gongzi, so this hydrangea is received by the son." ”
Cui Ran looked at the pink-shirted maid talking to herself dumbfounded, what kind of logic is this, and what kind of crooked reasoning is this? She only hated that she couldn't speak for her second brother, and glared at the girl in pink shirt.
Before Cui Jiuan could speak, Wang Yicai, who was not far away, resisted unhappily: "But the hydrangea is in my hands!" ”
"Hydrangeas weren't thrown at you!" The pink-shirted maid insisted on her word.
"That is to say, this is a gust of wind blowing into my hands, and the wind blows it, it is the fate of heaven!" Wang Yicai pretended to be innocent and applauded.
"You son is messing around." The girl in the pink shirt was forced to jump to her feet.
"You boy still don't understand? This is the one who is recognized. At this time, the passers-by next to him interjected and drew everyone's attention to Cui Jiuan, and there was an exclamation from the crowd, such a handsome and good appearance, everyone can understand Miss Lu's behavior, who doesn't like such a beautiful appearance? If it weren't for the fear of tarnishing people like jade, they would want to reach out and touch it.
Cui Jiuan motioned to Wang Yicai, who had already recognized him, not to reveal his identity, and Wang Yicai nodded appreciatively.
"Miss Lu, you can't just ignore your words just because you like this son, isn't this teasing us?" As smart as Wang Yicai, although he admired Lu Lin's beauty, he would never offend the princess for her, so this time he spoke loudly and powerfully, and he hit it with one blow, and a group of young men who were also waiting for hydrangea on the side protested slightly when they heard this.
For a while, the crowd was boiling, and everyone gathered around the pink-shirted maid downstairs to ask for an explanation.
Cui Jiu'an, who was squeezed out of the circle, dragged the girl's soft and quietly left, and Lu Linwen, who was standing upstairs, looked at the pair of figures drowning in the street with hatred, and turned away angrily.
Lu Linwen, who had just left from the back door of the Cai Lou, was stopped by her father.
Lu Xiangnian said helplessly: "Since Mu has become a father, there is no way, people can't be untrustworthy." ”
After speaking, she pulled Lu Linwen into the crowd, the girl kept trying to break free, but her father, who had always been responsive to her needs, this time she held her hand tightly and didn't let go, Lu Linwen didn't understand why her father had changed.
Honesty and faith are her father's original intention to be an official to the people, and it is also his sincerity to the court, and it is also her father's unbearable regret for 20 years ago.
"Father, you can't really let your daughter marry a stranger like this." Lu Linwen resisted.
"Then why didn't you think of it before you did this? Take your own marriage and your father to be angry, you are too willful, it's my fault, I spoil you too much, but it hurts you! There were faint tears in the corners of Lu Xiangnian's eyes, and he was ashamed of his deceased wife's thousands of instructions.
Seeing the person coming, the crowd automatically gave way, and Wang Yicai saw this situation and knew that the person who came must be the prefect Lu Xiangnian.
"Lord Lu, it's polite!" Wang Yicai saluted slowly.
Lu Xiangnian looked at the young man in front of him, and he was quite satisfied, such a person wants to come to the family, and his father is also a scholar, and his daughter is a good match to marry such a young man.
"Dare to ask where the family is, what do the parents do for a living, and can there be a family at home?" After all, it was his spoiled daughter, and Lu Xiangnian still carefully inquired about the young people one by one.
"Lord Hui, the late Wang Yicai, a person from the capital, his father Wang Zuo served in the Ministry of Rites, and there was no family at home." Wang Yicai answered them one by one, and he advanced and retreated to a certain extent.
"It turned out to be the son of Lord Wang, and then he was terrible, what did he say about coming to Xijing? Why don't you come to my house for a cup of tea? Lu Xiangnian listened to Wang Yicai's words, and was even more satisfied, so he invited him to be a guest.
Wang Yicai nodded in response and went to the Lu Mansion under the leadership of Lu Xiangnian.
"Lord Lu doesn't have to worry, if Miss Lu is really reluctant, Wang will never be reluctant, and he must always listen to his parents' opinions on marriage matters." Wang Yicai quietly reminded Lu Xiangnian, in fact, he can't be the master of this matter, after all, Wang Yicai was just a joke before he was young and vigorous, and then he was attracted by Lu Lin's beauty to act like that, in fact, he calmed down for a moment and regretted a little in his heart, he shouldn't act so abruptly, how could he be so childish in marriage, and he would inevitably be scolded when he went back.
Lu Linwen, who was on the side, heard Wang Yicai's shirking, and the resentment against Fang Cai and the two of them was even deeper in her heart, if it weren't for his troubles, how could he have made such a field, but this eldest lady didn't admit that she was willful and messing around at all.
"Of course, it's better to move to the study to repair a book, and send it to the capital quickly, what do you think?"
"Then listen to the adults!" Wang Yicai couldn't refuse, so he could only repair the book and send it to the capital on a fast horse, but the attendant he sent also brought a sentence: "It's a pure coincidence, the child has no intention, and he asked his mother to refuse." "If he has such a sentence, he will put his responsibility aside, and his mother will not blame him much when he goes back, and his mother will not let his father in the officialdom have a bad relationship with Lord Lu because of this.
It's just that he didn't know that his mother, who was far away in the capital, just smiled contemptuously and said to the grandmother next to him after receiving this letter and hearing about it: "A slutty woman who can make a hydrangea to recruit relatives still wants to marry into my palace and have her spring and autumn dreams!" ”
Lu Linwen in the Lufu Garden here looked at the little girl kneeling in front of her.
"How's it going to send you to investigate?" As she spoke, Lu Linwen threw the fish food in her hand into the pond, causing a group of fish to scramble for it, and the water surface rippled in circles.
"Miss Hui, those two live in the Xilai Inn, and I heard the shopkeeper say that the son is Xincui, and I don't know anything else." The little girl said as she peeked at the red skirt of Lu Lin's wife.
"It's just a bit of news, it's a waste!" Lu Linwen was very dissatisfied with this.
"Miss, the two of them live in the elegant room of the Xilai Inn, I think it's not an ordinary small family, please think twice!" The little girl sincerely persuaded the girl in red.
"If you want to be nosy, you can't take care of it, and you love to worry about what you shouldn't, so go ahead." Lu Lin's wife said so, but she was not really angry.
"Yes." The little guy in the green shirt retreated without saying a word.
"The nurse, this son, is becoming more and more ignorant of the seriousness of his actions, and he turns around and asks the steward to drop him outside to Zhuangzi." Lu Linwen complained and said to the pink-shirted maid beside her.
"Miss, isn't that right?" The pink-shirted maid hesitated.
"What's wrong, I'm the master, I have the final say, you don't see his eyes, and he's becoming more and more unruly." Lu Linwen said with disgust.
"Yes. Miss, the one surnamed Cui just let him go? ”
"I'm not done with him."
Cui Ran in the Xilai Inn pulled Cui Jiuan uneasily and asked, "Second brother, I don't think that Miss Lu will just give up like this, why don't we leave early!" ”
"Hmm." Cui Jiuan is not afraid of things, but he doesn't want to waste time messing around with a woman.
So when Lu Linwen came to the Xilai Inn with a group of people, she was already empty, and she could only leave with hatred and anger.
