When she went to Lancui Courtyard early the next morning to ask for peace, Lu Yunlan found that Lu Yunmeng's eyes were a little swollen.

According to the rules, no matter whether the daughter is born or not, she must go to the wife of the main courtyard to say goodbye between the hour and the hour. Xu has been married to Lu Zhe for nearly 20 years, and has never treated concubines and concubines harshly, so she can let everyone go to Chenzheng.

Mama Qian is an old man of the Lu family, and she knows the rules, so she told Ruan and Lu Yunlan to get up early as the day before. The mother and daughter got up at the same time, washed and dressed up, and then went to Lancui Courtyard together.

When they arrived at Lancui Courtyard, after saluting, Xu asked them to sit down again. Aunt Yao invited An to come early, and she was slightly older than Ruan's, so she sat on the right side of Xu's head. She changed into a camellia red dress today, with a light white gown, and a pink hibiscus flower in full bloom on her hair. On the contrary, it made Xu's face pale, as if he was lacking in qi and blood.

Such a delicate dress can not be vulgar, neither the Xu family nor the Ruan family can compare.

Lu Yunlan thought to herself, and her eyes fell on the girl sitting beside her with slightly swollen eyes.

Lu Yunmeng was holding her hands and apologizing.

"Good sister, yesterday my sister thought about it and felt that she couldn't live with you, and she didn't sleep well all night, thinking that she must apologize to you today......" I have to say that Lu Yunmeng is really a master of acting, and this excellent performance of singing and songwriting makes people unbearable to blame, and they forget how she "inadvertently" mentioned yesterday that Lu Yunlan is likely to be the culprit of destroying Gongju.

Xu Shi lowered his head and silently plucked the teacup, as if he hadn't heard Lu Yunmeng's words. Lu Yunying, who was sitting at the top of her left, listened and frowned slightly.

Miss Lu was born with this temperament, and she has not changed in her previous life or present life.

Lu Yunlan glanced at her eldest sister and couldn't help laughing.

"Second sister, what are these words," Lu Yunlan pressed Lu Yunmeng's hands instead, the latter was startled by her slightly cool temperature, and almost retracted her hand, but Lu Yunlan's strength was actually extremely great, she couldn't break free for a while, she could only meet the girl's dark eyes, and heard her say-"It's just a villain, and the second sister is also being deceived...... Rest assured, sister, I will never take such a small trick to heart. ”

Lu Yunmeng's face changed and changed, not sure if this good sister who couldn't see the depth was really scolding the gardener, or using the florist's matter to point fingers at Sang and scold Huai.

Yesterday before going to bed, she sent a maid to inquire about the whereabouts of the gardener, only to be told that the gardener had been carried back by his family. She wanted to inquire about the injury again, but the maid who went to inquire said that Grandpa Guo had ordered the ladies not to interfere in this matter again.

When her father found out, she was uneasy, so she decided to apologize to Lu Yunlan early in the morning, so that everyone could know how gentle and frugal she was and how close she was to her sisters.

"The fifth sister is talking about ......"

Lu Yunmeng reluctantly smiled and withdrew his hand.

Seeing that their little sisters had finished speaking, Xu Shi turned to Aunt Yao and said, "In a few days, the palace will hold a banquet for the four princes, and the lord said to me this morning, let me take Mengniang ......with me," she paused and said vaguely, "...... Mengniang is fifteen years old......"

It's not clear what this is saying, but who here doesn't understand it? Lu Yunying's face changed slightly, and she turned her face to look at an osmanthus tree in the distance; Lu Yunmeng's face was shy, he lowered his head and twisted the handkerchief in his hand and was silent; Lu Yunlan is calm, anyway, she is still young, and it will not be her turn for the time being.

Aunt Yao was even more happy, glanced at her daughter, and said softly.

"Madame remembers Mengniang, and the concubine knows it."

Ruan didn't understand at first, but when she saw everyone's reactions, she also knew why. Since she entered the Guogong Mansion, she always felt a little shrunken, not as comfortable as in Pearl Hutong, fortunately Xu's people are kind, and Aunt Yao is also a good talker, so she is a lot more relieved.

Ruan's thought in his heart was very simple, since the Xu family could plan for Lu Yunmeng, he would definitely have his own daughter in the future.

The maids set up their breakfast behind the screen, and the dishes and chopsticks collided, occasionally making a crisp sound.

Lu Yunlan counted the time in her heart, and the Xu family should soon let them go back to breakfast.

“…… Concubine Niangniang is not an outsider, what the lord means is that our family is not prosperous, so we simply call the two rooms and three rooms together...... Naturally, Lan Niang is definitely going to go. ”

Suddenly hearing her name, Lu Yunlan was startled and raised her head.

Xu Shi was looking at her with a smile.

"Lan Niang, if you haven't entered the palace, I will send a grandmother to teach you the rules-" Xu Shi looked at Lu Yunmeng with the same gentleness, and explained together, "Mengniang too." Once we enter the palace, we represent the face of the Qingguo Mansion, but we must not make mistakes. ”

Lu Yunmeng secretly complained.

In her previous life, as the wife of the Hou Mansion, she had entered the palace several times, and each time she had three knocks and nine bows, the rules were cumbersome, and after she came back, her bones seemed to be scattered. She would rather go to the temple with the Ruan family to worship a few more times, and it is better to travel and travel than to enter the heavy palace gate and communicate with a group of women who are more noble than her.

Even she doesn't really like to worship Buddha.

It's just that since Xu said so, she has to go, besides-she remembers, this time entering the palace is not for nothing.

The girl's eyes slanted slightly, thinking of her little aunt who only had a few faces, Concubine Lu Wanbai.

The Lu family is illustrious, Lu Wanbai entered the palace at a young age and was crowned a concubine, and later she was pregnant with a dragon descendant and entered the concubine, until two years ago when the four princes turned fifteen, the emperor issued a decree to respect Lu Wanbai as a concubine, second only to the queen and the concubine.

In fact, he had an eldest son as early as when the emperor was still a prince, but unfortunately the eldest son was sick and weak and died before he was three years old; Since ascending the throne, there was also a low-ranking concubine in the palace who gave birth to the second prince, but unfortunately the blessed woman died in childbirth, and the second prince was not favored by the emperor because of his biological mother's lowness, so he only hastily arranged a Jieyu who had served the emperor in the prince's mansion to raise him, and there is little news about him so far; Later, the concubine and the concubine gave birth to heirs one after another, namely the third prince Yu Wenrui and the fourth prince Yu Wenwen.

Lu Wanbai is not a competitive person, but Wu Guifei and the third prince are. The mother and son always took the four princes and the Lu family as thorns in their eyes, wanting to get rid of them, so that Yu Wenrui could ascend to the crown prince as soon as possible, but they hated and feared, for fear that once they made a move, they would encounter a crazy counterattack from the Duke of Qingguo.

- These are all what she said when she later entered the palace and listened to her little aunt Lu Wanbai herself.

At that time, the Xu family was dead, and Lu Yunying was such an ignorant character, Lu Yunmeng was inconvenient to enter the palace because she was not married, only she, as the wife of the prince, could often walk around to meet and talk to Lu Wanbai, who had lived in the palace for a long time. Lu Wanbai likes her good listening, and she is also willing to talk more to this lonely woman.

"Thank you mother for arranging, Mengniang and my sister will definitely learn etiquette from Mama, so as not to lose the face of our Qingguo Mansion." While pondering, Lu Yunmeng had already smiled lightly, and Lu Yunlan said the same when he saw this, "Mother Lao is bothered!" ”

Xu Shi covered his mouth with a handkerchief and smiled, "Okay, I won't grind you anymore, let's go back to eat separately." Mama will come to your courtyard before lunch. ”

"Yes, Mother."

Coming out of the Lancui Courtyard, Lu Yunlan walked beside Ruan, and inadvertently saw the food in the hand of the little girl who brought breakfast into the house next to her—she twisted her eyebrows slightly, a little surprised.

"Lan Niang?" Ruan Shi noticed her eyes and said curiously, "What's wrong, but what's uncomfortable?" ”

Seeing that there was no one else beside him, Lu Yunlan avoided the maids and leaned into Ruan's ear and said softly.

"Mother, it's a little strange for me to look at the breakfast that Madame ate......"

Ruan Shi was stunned, "Strange? ”

"Hmm," Lu Yunlan nodded, carefully recalling the few foods he had just seen, "cucumbers, shredded kelp, coconut white, mung bean sprouts, ......"

Every time she thought about it, the doubt in her heart deepened, these foods were not indispensable as a side dish for porridge, but if she used these food with these foods every day and had no other food, it would not be good for the woman's health.

"It sounds like cold food," Ruan thought for thought, but not very seriously, and she said, "Maybe we've only seen a few of them." ”

Really? Lu Yunlan still had doubts in her heart, but it was not good to speak directly to the Ruan family.

"Ahh Lian Rong suddenly shouted in a low voice behind her, with a nervous expression, "Miss, your sachet is gone!" ”

Lu Yunlan subconsciously touched her waist and looked at her maid in confusion—but Lian Rong avoided Ruan's gaze and winked at her.

What a smart girl!

Lu Yunlan instantly understood that Lian Rong saw that her doubts were creating opportunities for her, so she pushed the boat along the river and showed a look of embarrassment.

"Mother, the sachet may have fallen in the yard of the lady......"

Ruan Shi did not doubt him, "Then the mother will accompany you to go back and find it, right?" ”

"It's just a sachet, and my daughter is not a three-year-old child," Lu Yunlan said with a smile, "My mother will go back to Fenghe Courtyard first, and I will come later." ”

Because she trusted her daughter very much on weekdays, Ruan felt that it was okay for Lu Yunlan to go, so she explained a few words not to alarm Mrs. and Miss, not to be reckless, and went back with Chunrong.

After Ruan left, Lu Yunlan pointed a little bit of Lotus Rong's head with her finger and said with a smile.

"You are wise, and you know what is in my heart."

"The slave is going to be a worm in the belly of the young lady!"

The master and servant looked at each other and smiled, and then turned back to Lancui Courtyard.

In Lancui Courtyard, Lu Yunying was dining with Xu's family, and suddenly heard someone report that Miss Wu had turned back again.

Lu Yunying doesn't look down on Lu Yunmeng's pretentious appearance on weekdays, but they don't have any other sisters in this room, so they can always get by in terms of face. But when she heard that Lu Yunlan was coming, she actually felt a little happy - she put down her chopsticks and said happily, "Mother, let's let the fifth sister sit down and eat together." ”

Xu Shi looked at her helplessly, "I don't know what your fifth sister is doing." Xu ordered someone to call Lu Yunlan in, and then took a chopstick-cut pine egg for Lu Yunying, as if asking casually, "You have always been to Mengniang, why do you seem to like Lanniang very much?" ”

Lu Yunying didn't answer directly, but just asked with a smile.

"Doesn't my mother also think that the fifth sister is in line with her eyes?" The eldest lady paused again, and said without any scheming, "Maybe it's because the fifth sister is smart and smart?" Yesterday, my mother also saw it, and the fifth sister said a few words that were anti-guest-oriented, leaving the gardener speechless - I listened to it, and I wanted to clap my hands! ”

As soon as the words fell, the girl in blue blessed her at the door, and her voice was calm and gentle.

"Lan Niang has seen her mother and big sister."
