Chapter 334: Direct and Roundabout
When she returned to the house in the evening, Mrs. Ruan drank half a bowl of soup and kept looking at the dripping, seeing that it was still early for Lu Yi to come back, she was a little anxious and impatient.
Fortunately, Lu Yi came back a little earlier than usual today, and before Mrs. Ruan was about to lose her patience, the little girl's voice sounded, "Master is back." ”
Mrs. Ruan hurriedly lifted the curtain and went out, greeted Lu Yi, and went straight out of half of the corridor.
"What's wrong? Why is it in such a hurry? Lu Yi hurriedly took a few steps to meet Mrs. Ruan, stretched out her hand to support her waist, and carefully looked at Mrs. Ruan's face.
"Nothing's wrong, it's just ...... Are you back? Mrs. Ruan's eyebrows and eyes were full of joy.
Lu Yi's depression all day suddenly disappeared, "Is this missing me?" ”
"Hmm. Half misses you, half misses you, there's a good thing, anxious to wait for you to come back and get an idea. Mrs. Ruan leaned back in Lu Yi's palm, looked up at him and smiled.
"Obviously something's wrong!" Lu Yi raised her hand and nodded on the tip of Madam Ruan's nose.
"I talked to Sister Dong for a day today, she thinks Uncle Seventeen is good anywhere, if I say that Uncle Seventeen is not good, she must defend Uncle Seventeen a few words, I see ......" Mrs. Ruan dragged a long voice, quite proud, "This end, almost, I didn't dare to say it deeply, Sister Dong has a soft temper, Uncle Seventeen is very awkward, you see, when will we explore Uncle Seventeen's words?" ”
"Do you really think this is the right affair?" Lu Yi looked at Madam Ruan and asked.
Mrs. Ruan nodded, "The two or three times that Uncle Seventeen took a fancy to him were all soft and graceful people like Sister Dong'er, but those two or three families all felt that Uncle Seventeen was not a good person. ”
"Seventeen is a little deviant, he is a real non-bully, you have a better vision of this kind of thing than me. Your seventeenth uncle is a person who can talk? He's so smart that it's best to call him up and ask him directly. ”
"When do you ask? You have to hurry, it's not small, especially Uncle Seventeen. Madame Nguyen was impatient again.
Lu Yi laughed out loud, "You're right, your seventeenth uncle is the eldest is not small, so now, I can't let you be in a hurry." Lu Yi paused, beckoned to the little girl standing under the door of the weeping flowers, "You go to Hanguang, let him go to Ruan's Mansion immediately, and tell the seventeenth master that there is something important, let him come over immediately." ”
The little girl agreed, and hurriedly went out to spread the word.
Ruan's mansion is not far away, and Ruan Seventeen heard that there was something important, and he came over quickly.
Lu Yi simply invited him into the upper room of the main courtyard and sat down under the porch to talk.
"What do you say now?" Lu Yi is really straightforward.
Ruan Qiqi was taken aback, "You said that there is something important, ask this...... Someone wants to say goodbye? Dowager? Emperor? ”
"You don't think too much of yourself." Lu Yi glanced at Ruan Seventeen speechlessly, "The Queen Mother probably knows that the Ruan family has a seventeenth uncle who is very unsuccessful, and the emperor definitely doesn't know you." ”
Ruan Qiqi ignored the not very small disdain in Lu Yi's words, let out a long sigh of relief, and leaned back into the chair, "As long as it's not these two, something else...... Hey. The corners of Ruan Qiqi's mouth let out a dry laugh, and he raised his hand and waved, other people want to calculate his family affairs, he doesn't care.
"What does your family say now? Or is it up to you? Lu Yi asked again.
"My family business, not me, is it up to you? My aunt's temper, didn't Sister Yu tell you? She thinks I'm fine now, and if it's my family business, she's afraid that she won't be able to hold on to the next hurdle. Ruan Qiqi cocked Erlang's legs and shook freely.
"You said last time that the girl from the Li family was good, how about I take this red line for you?" Lu Yi really asked directly.
"Li girl? Which one? Li Jia...... What kind of Sister Dong did you say was soft-spoken? Ruan Qiqi was startled at first, when it came to the girl of the Li family, the first thing he thought of was Li Xia, this red line...... He still wiped his neck himself...... Good thing it's not.
"Well, how's that?" Lu Yi stared at Ruan Seventeen.
"How is this ...... The Li family, from the lady in charge to the two little female tigers, must not be able to look down on me, how do you think of what is not the line? Are you so idle now? Ruan Qiqi subconsciously avoided the first question, and then hurriedly asked the second question.
"You don't have to worry about the rest of the Li family, you just look at how the six ladies of the Li family are, you, when did you care what others think?" Lu Yi's eyebrows raised slightly, and he looked at Ruan Qiqi with a smile, his attitude was ...... It's a bit of a way.
Ruan Qiqi slanted to the landing instrument, "You smile like this, I feel as if the place I am sitting in is a trap." ”
"It's the Ruan family, I think you and the six ladies of the Li family are very suitable, let me explore you, the six ladies of the Li family are nineteen years old this year, although the selection is very good, but years ago, this family matter must be decided, you think about it, or if you want to see each other again, let the Ruan family arrange, but, you have to hurry up."
Lu Yi simply said something directly.
Ruan Qiqi leaned back in the chair, furrowed his brows, and his fingers knocked on the armrest of the chair urgently, "The person is good, but ......"
"Okay, then it's decided, let Ruan explore the meaning of other girls tomorrow, if people don't dislike you, your lifelong event will be fine, I won't keep you more, I've been busy for a day, and I haven't eaten yet."
Lu Yi stood up, grabbed Ruan Qiqi again, and pushed him out, while saying: "You come over tomorrow to listen to Xin'er, I won't let people come over to invite you, by the way, I got a few jars of good wine from the south, in the front yard, you can pick it yourself, you can take it away if you like it, I don't have time to drink." ”
Mrs. Ruan was anxious about this, and when she saw Mrs. Yan the next day, she pulled Mrs. Yan and said in a few words that her seventeenth uncle wanted to ask Sister Dong......
When Mrs. Ruan smiled and left, Mrs. Yan sat on the futon, stunned for a long time, and then came to her senses and understood what Mrs. Ruan's words meant: The seventeenth master who disturbed Uncle Xu's blind date and beat people on the spot with silver tickets on the spot, took a fancy to Sister Dong?
This is a fancy for Sister Dong'er, so it's easy to bully!
No, she can't think like this, Ruan Qiqi doesn't know about this person, but Mrs. Ruan and General Lu, waiting for Sister Dong and Ah Xia are very good, no matter what, they won't be so cheating Sister Dong......
Ruan 17 is Mrs. Ruan's uncle, and that is also General Lu's elder, Sister Dong...... Ahem, how did she think of this, she didn't need to think about it now...... It's a bit of a mess, and she's going to have to take care of it......
As soon as Mrs. Yan came to her senses, she was messy like a ball of silk thread in the wind, and she had to think about it and sort it out.
Mrs. Yan was in a mess, and when she saw Li Xia turning her head and gesturing at her quietly, she just nodded, these two children are very sensible.
Li Xia saw that Mrs. Yan nodded, and slipped out of the side hall one after the other with Li Wennan, Su Ye greeted him and said with a smile: "Mrs. Ruan brought a few snacks from the south, and just now the Queen Mother rewarded Mrs. Ruan with a lot of pomegranates, Mrs. Ruan asked me to ask you to come over to eat some and take a rest." ”
Li Xia and Li Wennan followed Su Ye to the back of the main hall, passed through a small narrow hall, and entered Mrs. Ruan's small quiet room.
Just ate half a pomegranate, there was a rush of fine crushing outside, but the footsteps with the rhythm of the chapter, Li Xiagang's hand froze when he picked up a few pomegranate seeds, the Queen Mother is here!
This is the Queen Mother coming, she is too familiar with such footsteps, and the next brisk slap to deliver the letter......
Madame Ruan had already jumped up, pointed to her lips, signaled the three of them not to make a sound, and hurriedly greeted her.
"You didn't hear the scriptures ahead?"
A gentle and gentle voice with warmth came into the room, Li Xia hung her head, and a sour, hot and spicy current rushed up, her eyes were moist and blurred, and after more than ten years, she heard the voice of the Queen Mother again......
Li Xia didn't hear what Mrs. Ruan answered, her mood was too agitated, a little chamberlain lifted the curtain, Li Wennan nervously pulled her, Li Xia pressed the sour and hot heat wave in her heart, crossed Li Wennan, reached out to hold Li Dong's hand, as if relying on her, held Li Dong's nervous cold fingers, stepped over the threshold, knelt on the ground, kowtowed.
"This is Li Wenshan's eldest sister, called Li Dong, next to her is the little sister Li Xia, next to her is Li Wenshan's cousin, the youngest daughter of Li Shuaisi, the transfer envoy of Qinfeng Road, called Li Wennan." Mrs. Ruan lowered her eyebrows and respectfully introduced.
"Don't be afraid, come and I'll take a look." Empress Dowager Jin's voice was full of love and smiles.
This voice calmed Li Dong a lot, pulled Li Xia to stand up, Li Wennan followed closely, stretched out his hand to hold Li Xia, and quietly went to see the Empress Dowager Jin.
"Look, that's what an old boy looks like." Empress Dowager Jin pointed at Li Wennan and said with a smile with the eldest princess and others: "Look at her like this." ”
"She is like this, when Brother Yan was five or six years old, she went to watch the martial arts performance, she was obviously worried and scared, but she had to watch it." The eldest princess also laughed.
"Sister Dong is a very sensible and good child, Sister Nan and Ah Xia are very naughty." Mrs. Tang Shangshu is the most familiar with the Li family, and she took the introduction with a smile.
Li Dong led Li Xia, Li Xia pulled Li Wennan, and had already stood two or three steps away from the Empress Dowager Jin, the Empress Dowager Jin beckoned again, and the three of them took two steps closer, the Empress Dowager Jin looked at the three of them carefully in turn, turned around and smiled with Mrs. Sui: "I can also see it, Sister Dong is a good child, these two children, you see that these eyes are smart, and they are good, this spirit is rare." Listening to this, can you two little girls sit still? ”
Li Xia looked at Li Wennan, Li Wennan glanced at Li Xia, and replied respectfully: "Back to Niangniang, sit still, today is the fifth day, and in the first four days, Ah Xia and I listened all day." ”
"The eldest aunt said, the seventh sister and I have to be able to sit still and be able to endure the temperament, the eldest aunt praised us yesterday." Li Xia answered.
"Such a sensible child, where is he naughty?" Empress Dowager Jin laughed and pointed to the two of them and Mrs. Sui.
"It's just that those who should be sensible are very sensible, and it's not the time to be Tao." Mrs. Sui glanced at Mrs. Ruan.
Mrs. Ruan pursed her lips and smiled: "Niangniang doesn't know, Ah Xia and Sister Nan have fought with people twice. ”
"I remember, in the spring, the fight in the South Water Gate, isn't it these two girls......" The eldest princess laughed, looked at the Empress Dowager Jin, and said in a few words the excitement in the South Water Gate in the spring, "...... I said at the time, seeing that my father was beaten by others, and he didn't rush up, is that still a person? That's not naughty. ”
"When I look at these two children, I think of when we were children." The Empress Dowager Jin and the eldest princess said in a low voice, their voices full of infinite nostalgia.
"Not really." The eldest princess sighed with emotion, "Decades have passed. ”
"Come, I'll take you to listen to the scriptures and see if you have sat still." Empress Dowager Jin motioned to Li Xia and the three of them to follow her and go to the main hall.
Mrs. Ruan and Li Dong were side by side, Li Xia pulled Li Wennan, lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, and followed behind the Empress Dowager Jin very well-behaved.
All coincidences are arrangements, this is the words of the Queen Mother, so who arranged this coincidence today? Queen Mother? Or Lu Yi? For what?
