Chapter 45: The Banquet of King Huan's Mansion
Of course, Lu Mubai was also worried.
But I can't say it, so as not to aggravate my mother's worries, so I said: "Mother, don't worry, I think Ruoqing is smart and smart, and she is very measured in her actions." ”
"Hey, how can I not be worried?" Gu sighed, lowered his voice and said, "Let's just talk about this 30,000 taels of silver, even if it wasn't Ruoqing's doing, your grandmother and aunt would be angry, not to mention that it's really her?" ”
Lu Mubai's face was constricted, "Mother! You can't think that way yourself, and show your feet again. ”
Gu suddenly understood, "Yes, yes, I don't know." ”
I thought silently in my heart, and quickly forgot about the 30,000 taels of silver.
In the future, not only can you not mention it, you can't say it, but you don't even dream about it, and you have to pretend that you don't know it at all. lest evil come out of the mouth, and the children may be implicated again.
Lu Mubai looked at his mother's panicked look, and couldn't help but feel helpless.
It seems that my sister is right, those silver tickets really can't be guarded by my mother, otherwise my mother will be so uneasy that sooner or later she will show her feet in front of others.
It's just that my sister is really ......, and the idea is getting bigger and bigger.
At this moment, Lu Ruoqing had already hidden the silver ticket.
When she did this, she naturally wouldn't keep a girl. only said that she wanted to rest, let the girls all retreat, and then divided the silver ticket into three parts, each hiding three hiding places.
Lu Ruoqing's boudoir, except when she was there, no one was allowed to come in.
And she won't be as flustered as Gu's, and after doing such a big thing, her face is as if she was fine. I just slept by the way, waited for it, and called the girl to come in and serve and freshen up as usual.
Yaoxiang gave her a seal and asked, "With a pearl hairpin?" Or is it a jade hairpin? ”
Lu Ruoqing didn't care, "Whatever." ”
She didn't bother to think about dressing, and even her mother and brother were a little puzzled, and she didn't have time to take care of it.
In a few days, it will be King Huan's birthday banquet.
Lu Zheng'er was also released, and unexpectedly, she should go to the banquet to show off a little limelight. and when my father came back, it was indispensable to make do with it, and take the opportunity to tie up King Huan.
---- though I can't get a knot.
But no matter what, no matter what it is, the Lu family's side alone is lively enough.
Thinking about it again, Xiao Shaoxuan, who has made his identity public, as the brother of King Huan, must attend. There are also the final Princess Huan ---- Murong Changya in the previous life, and Concubine Su Shu, who favored the harem, and all kinds of people want to play.
None of them are good at stubble.
"Miss, the second miss is here." The voice of the girl outside the door was a little nervous.
Yao Xiang's hand was also stunned, facing the mirror, and he lowered his voice and said, "Second Miss is only afraid that the person who comes is not good." ”
"Huh." Lu Ruoqing sneered, "She got into trouble herself, offended His Royal Highness King Huan, went to prison, and let her family spend 30,000 taels of silver to redeem herself, why is it not good?" ”
Yao Xiang swallowed, "I'm not worried, Second Miss's charcoal-like temper." ”
"Don't worry." Lu Ruoqing smiled lightly and pointed outside, "Look at now, I didn't say let her in, she has been staying outside without breaking in, and she has already eaten a trench and grown wise." ”
Before the change, Lu Zhenger would definitely not be able to hold her breath.
Yao Xiang was stunned, "Yes, why did the second miss stop like this?" ”
Lu Ruoqing smiled but said nothing.
Yao Xiang didn't want to test Lu Zheng'er's patience, so she went out and opened the curtain, "Second Miss, our young lady just got up." ”
"Hmm." Lu Zheng'er nodded, looking very polite and easygoing.
I thought I was hallucinating.
"Sister." Lu Zheng'er shouted affectionately.
Lu Ruoqing was still sitting in front of the dresser, turning her head to look at her, "Sister Zheng'er is back." ”
"Hmm." Lu Zhenger wore a rose-red embroidered skirt with a dark purple top, the color was slightly heavier, and it was a little more calm than before. She took the food box from the girl's hand, put it down and smiled: "This is the snack I gave to my sister." ”
Lu Ruoqing's eyes flashed slightly, "Give it to me?" ”
"Yes, thank you sister for saving me." Lu Zheng'er seemed to have suddenly changed a person, no longer arrogant, but became delicate and weak, and wiped the corners of her eyes, "I blamed me for being ignorant, pushing my sister, and offending His Royal Highness King Huan, thanks to my sister's intercession, I can go home." ”
Lu Ruoqing smiled faintly, "I just said a few words, I want to thank ......, or thank my grandmother for their 30,000 taels of silver." ”
Lu Zheng'er was furious when she heard this.
Thirty thousand taels of silver! Thirty thousand taels of silver!
Almost emptied all the spare money of the Lu family.
Although the grandmother and aunt really took the money out, they really didn't feel distressed? Don't blame her? Take 10,000 steps back and say that her grandmother and aunt really feel sorry for her, and they don't blame her for losing her silver.
Then when she marries in the future, the dowry will definitely shrink.
Not to mention, my father's side is distressed to death.
If it weren't for her grandmother and aunt to protect her, for the sake of this money, I was afraid that my father would tear her heart apart.
"What's wrong? Sister Zheng'er. Lu Ruoqing asked.
Lu Zheng'er suppressed the anger in her heart, and choked up: "I know ......, it's all my fault, I have caused such a big loss to my family, and I am sorry for the people in my family." ”
Lu Ruoqing persuaded: "That's it, it's a blessing for my sister to come back." ”
Lu Zheng'er wiped the corners of her eyes, "Thank you sister for your care." ”
She suddenly became docile and weak, which made the girls around her look dumbfounded, and looked at each other one by one, with an unbelievable look in their eyes.
Lu Ruoqing was indifferent.
She had spent ten years in the prison in her previous life, and she knew very well what that place was.
Whipping, soldering irons, cane scolding, all kinds of flesh and blood blurring, ghosts crying wolves, and there are many felons who swallow their breath in front of them, and life and death have become a common thing inside.
Therefore, no matter who goes in to experience it, it will change a little bit of temperament.
Lu Zhenger must have suffered a lot these days.
There is nothing wrong with becoming so "gentle and kind" and "delicate and pitiful" now.
Even if he knew that Lu Zheng'er was pretending, it was always better than opening his mouth to salivate Yang Hua, closing his mouth to meet men privately, and even pushing people, at least it seemed that everyone was decent.
"Sister." Lu Zheng'er wiped the corners of her eyes and asked again: "The day after tomorrow is the birthday banquet of His Royal Highness King Huan, right?" ”
Lu Ruoqing nodded, "Yes." ”
Lu Zheng'er looked uneasy, wringing her handkerchief, "I blamed me for misunderstanding my sister before, and I was so angry with His Royal Highness King Huan, so ......, I want to follow my sister to the banquet and make amends to His Royal Highness." ”
"Okay." Lu Ruoqing agreed very happily.
Although she knew that Lu Zheng'er didn't press the letter, the ruby head face that Yun Taijun gave had to be used by Lu Zheng'er to know what the conspiracy was.
Hehe, if Lu Zheng'er doesn't go, this lively drama won't be able to be sung.
"Sister, did you agree?" Lu Zheng'er looked moved, grabbed Lu Ruoqing's sleeve, and said with a blank eye: "When the time comes, my sister will have to say a few good words for me in front of His Royal Highness King Huan." ”
Lu Ruoqing chuckled, "That's nature, you and I are my own sisters." ”
Lu Zheng'er smiled stiffly, "Sister, you are so good." ”
Only then did she realize how deep her sister's city government was.
obviously hates her to death, but now he can talk and laugh in front of her, and he is not embarrassed at all.
---- used to be too underestimating for her.
But, she won't in the future!
"Second Miss, the old lady called you over." The girl outside came to report.
"Okay." Lu Zheng'er responded, and then politely said goodbye to Lu Ruoqing, "Sister, I'll go over first." ”
"Go ahead." Lu Ruoqing was too lazy to talk nonsense with her.
Lu Zheng'er walked out of the Youzhu Pavilion, stopped, and glanced back with a cold gaze.
In the past, it was because she was too light on the enemy that she would fail miserably! In the future, she will take every step of the way, take one step and count three steps, and learn her sister's ability to smile at the tiger, so that people can't catch the handle.
Hehe, let's see!
On the day of King Huan's birthday, the sun was shining, and the blue sky was simply cloudless.
Lu Ruoqing deliberately combed a gorgeous Yaotai Wangxian bun, put on a ruby head, and wore a twelve-piece woven gold-threaded Hunan skirt, dressed brightly and brightly. She was originally tall and delicate, and when she was dressed like this, she was lined with a unique appearance, just like a fairy concubine.
The girls were all amazed.
Even Gu, who has always been introverted, saw it and boasted: "Ruoqing's appearance is dignified and generous, and she can hold down her clothes, so she is suitable for wearing such a red and carmine, and it looks much more radiant." ”
Lu Ruoqing smiled faintly, "Mother, you are boasting about yourself." ”
Gu Shi was stunned for a moment, only then did she understand what she was joking, "You kid ......" couldn't help but laugh, "That's right!" You are born good-looking, all because your mother and I are good-looking, so I sell myself and boast. ”
When he said this, the girls in the room laughed.
Wen Zhu also joked: "Madame is indeed good-looking, not boasting." ”
"Don't talk nonsense." Gu Shi waved his hand again and again, "What age am I?" Pretty too? Besides......" Thinking of his crooked body, his eyes flashed with a faint gloom.
Lu Ruoqing saw it in her eyes and hurriedly interrupted, "Mother, am I more beautiful than when you were younger?" ”
Gu Shi looked at his bright and brilliant daughter, distracted his thoughts, nodded and said, "There is a girl in my family who has just grown up." His gaze fell on the ruby head, "This set was given by your grandmother, and when you go down to say goodbye, remember to thank you." ”
She didn't think much about it, she just thought it was given by Yun Taijun in order to coax her daughter.
Lu Ruoqing knew it very well in her heart.
Yaoxiang reminded her again and again, saying how beautiful and brilliant this ruby head is, and asked her to wear it today, there must be another conspiracy in it.
But it doesn't matter, ...... today, Lu Zhenger is also going to go.
---- wait and find a chance to give it to her.
Gu Shi said again: "Let's go, it's not early." Straightened up her daughter's clothes and brushed her hair, "At the banquet of His Royal Highness King Huan today, there must be many nobles, don't walk around so as not to collide." ”
