After lunch, Lu Jiayue accompanied Meng Shi to drink the diet tea, and when she came back to Chuntang Residence, she learned that Xiaoshun and Xiaocheng had been waiting for a long time.

After entering the inner room, the maids were all sent out, leaving Xin Zhu alone, Lu Jiayue asked the two little guys: "How are things going?" ”

The two little guys stood below and beat a thousand children, Xiao Shun replied: "Since the young lady's orders, the servants have quietly followed the young master of the Lou family every day, and found that the young master Lou does not go out often, and he goes out once every two or three days, but as long as he goes out, he will definitely go to a place." ”

Speaking of this, the two little guys glanced at each other, but stopped talking.

"Oh," Lu Jiayue nodded, "What place?" ”

Both of them hesitated, and after a while, Xiao Chengcai said in a low voice: "It's Yihong Mansion." ”

"Leaning on the Red Mansion?" Lu Jiayue couldn't help frowning, such a gaudy name, as soon as she heard it, she knew that it was the land of fireworks, she didn't feel disgusted in her heart, and sneered, "It turns out that Young Master Lou is such an elegant and good person." ”

Seeing that Lu Jiayue understood, the two little servants stopped talking about it, and Xiao Cheng said again: "The minions have also inquired clearly, Young Master Lou cherishes his face, and every time he goes in, he goes out of the way, and every time he only looks for a girl named Xiang Ruan." According to the guy who worked in Yihong Mansion, Young Master Lou seemed to have the intention of ransomesing this girl, and also said that this girl was also a well-known celebrity in Yihong Mansion, and the silver taels needed to redeem her body were a lot. ”

The imperial court has long banned that all officials, regardless of rank, and their children and nephews, are not allowed to enter and leave the land of smoke willows and poplars. Lou Wenke was born in a family of eunuchs and had a marriage contract, so he regarded the ban of the imperial court as nothing, and did things to find flowers and ask willows, and humiliate himself.

Lu Jiayue's disgust for Lou Wenke suddenly deepened.

Seeing that Lu Jiayue's pink face was tense, the two little guys were obviously angry, and they couldn't help but feel uneasy in their hearts.

The two of them had been by Lu Jiayue's side for several years, and it was the first time they had seen such a "serious" look on their master's face.

Who knew that Lu Jiayue thought silently for a moment, and then laughed, and said, "That's fine-"

When the two little guys heard this, they looked at each other in shock.

The young master of the Lou family is married to Miss Qu, and now he is doing such ugly things behind someone's back, but the master is Miss Qu's cousin, so he doesn't feel sorry for Miss Qu, but praises it?

Lu Jiayue naturally didn't know how the two little guys slandered, leaned on the kang table with her hands, her expression was leisurely, and she said sarcastically: "After redeeming your body, how do you settle other girls?" You can't marry into Lou Mansion openly, right? It seems that this Young Master Lou wants to hide Jiaojiao in the golden house, if you want to hide, then there must be a place," he looked at the two little guys with a smile, "I have to work hard for you, continue to stare at Young Master Lou, if I am not mistaken, he will definitely buy real estate in the near future to be his gentle township." ”

These words were said so bluntly that the two little guys were stunned when they heard it, and even Xin Zhu on his side couldn't help blushing.

Lu Jiayue didn't care, and only asked Xin Zhu to give the two little guys a tael of silver, which was considered a reward for them to eat snacks, and the two little guys received the silver and went out with a thousand thanks.

Xin Zhu was full of doubts about Lu Jiayue's abnormal behavior and attitude, and when he saw that Lu Jiayue's expression was relieved and joyful, he couldn't help but be even more surprised.

Lu Jiayue took off her purple satin embroidered shoes and curled up on the warm kang, Xin Zhu hurriedly took the brocade quilt and put it on for her, she raised her eyes to look at Xin Zhu, her eyes were calm, "Right now, you should know why I want to break up the marriage between Cousin Ying and the young master of the Lou family, right?" ”

Xin Zhu didn't speak, and after a while, he said softly: "Miss Yingbiao is such a good girl's family, if she marries someone like Young Master Lou, it will be like a flawless jade falling into the mud, which is also a pity." As he spoke, he looked at Lu Jiayue, "I just think it's strange, Miss seems to have known that Young Master Lou is not a good match for Miss Yingbiao." ”

Lu Jiayue gathered the brocade quilt on her body, and the smile on her face was quiet and quiet, "When we first arrived in Yanjing, where did I know what the young master of the Lou family was?" It's just because Cousin Ying treats me really well, I regard her as my own sister, and for the sake of her life, I have so many tricks and feet, and all I want is to let Cousin Ying marry a lover and have a happy marriage in this life. Who knew that this was really a coincidence, and the crooked fight made us see the nature of the young master of the Lou family. ”

"Hey, this is also God's eyes, I can't bear to see Miss Yingbiao marry by mistake." Xin Zhu sighed, and said, "It's just that Miss Yingbiao and the young master of the Lou family have already made a marriage, what are Miss going to do?" ”

Lu Jiayue raised her eyebrows, and smiled confidently: "Don't worry, I have my own way." ”

*

A few more days passed, and it was the beginning of winter.

The practice of the Qu family, the beginning of winter is a big day, you need to hold a feast in the upper room of Mrs. Qu, and the whole family will toast Mrs. Qu to congratulate, so as to have an auspicious and safe winter.

The feast was placed in the flower hall of the upper room, and it was only in the afternoon that day, and the maids and servants in the flower hall had already begun to get busy.

When it was time for dinner, dozens of lanterns were picked up in the courtyard of the upper room, and from a distance, the lights were bright. When I entered the courtyard, I saw the figures in the flower hall, the figures of the maids and servants shuttling back and forth, and the laughter that sounded from time to time, which was obviously a prosperous scene of the family of the eunuchs of the high gate.

Entering the flower hall, the soft couch on the top sat Mrs. Qu, and there were still five or six maids on the side, and the fourth lady Fang sat on the embroidery pier on the side of Mrs. Qu, and I don't know what she said, which caused Mrs. Qu to smile and look very happy.

Lu Jiayue followed behind Meng, Qu Ying, and her cousin-in-law Xu, and stepped forward to greet Mrs. Qu.

Old Madam Qu smiled with her chin, looked through everyone, and looked at Lu Jiayue alone.

I saw that Lu Jiayue's figure was as weak as a willow, standing in the crowd, wearing a bud green checkered satin jacket, jade white cotton silk phoenix skirt, and the colors and styles were all in time. I also saw that she was covered with green silk behind her shoulders, and she had a double-ring bun combed on the top of her head, slightly embellished with two beaded flowers. Although the face is not powdered, it is white and pink, and the eyebrows are clear, and there is a bright and natural state that only a cardamom girl has.

Mrs. Qu has lived to the present age, and I don't know how many women with outstanding looks have been seen in the prince's palace, and I don't know how many women with outstanding looks have been seen in the official family, but because I have seen a lot, I feel that they are all the same beautiful, and there is nothing new. The thirteen-year-old girl in front of her eyes suddenly felt that there was a feeling that the jewel was in the box, as if it could show its true light just by waiting for time to be carved.

Old Madam Qu suddenly remembered herself when she was young.

It is also delicate and bright, smiling like a flower.

However, time flies, after all, it urges people to grow old, no matter how beautiful she was in the past, she can't compete with the wind and frost of the years.

The twilight of the beauty and the white-headed general are the most helpless things in the world.

Mrs. Qu felt a little sad in her heart, but she was also a little inexplicably happy. It's just because she doesn't think of her former self for a long time, but Lu Jiayue's appearance reminds her of the young and vivid times she once had.
