Chapter 21: Mother
Seeing that the old lady Bai obeyed his words like this, everyone couldn't help but start to guess the origin of this man in brocade clothes.
Seeing this, Governor Lu smiled with satisfaction, and stood in place with his hands in his hands, as if waiting for the old lady Bai to speak.
Old lady Bai also planned to continue to invite Lu Zhifu to his house for a cup of tea, and when he met his eyes, he immediately understood and ordered another entourage beside him: "Please ask my aunt and my grandson to go in, kill animals and prepare food, and tell Seventh Aunt and Grandma to come out and see them." ”
"Yes."
The attendants saluted, and went to invite someone.
Governor Lu smiled at this time: "I still have something to do, so I won't bother." Leave. ”
"Alas! You stay, it's rare to come to Fuyang, and you have done us such a big favor, and please come to the house for a small gathering, so that the old man can express his gratitude! "Old lady Bai tried his best to keep it.
"I really have other things to do, and I understand the old lady Bai's intentions."
Lu Zhifu insisted on leaving, but the old lady Bai couldn't keep it, so he had to send it off, and secretly sighed in his heart that today's bad luck - because of Lu Zhifu, he compromised and made concessions, but he didn't get a benefit.
Zhu Huating and Zhu Youning stopped in front of the mansion and saluted and thanked Governor Lu from afar.
Governor Lu glanced at Zhu Huating, his eyes were faint and he couldn't see his emotions, turned around and said goodbye to Old Lady Bai, and took people away first.
Old lady Bai watched Governor Lu go away and returned to the front of the mansion, only then did he lower his voice and mock Zhu Huating: "I didn't expect you to have this shit luck and get this help." ”
"It's all up to my father-in-law to take care of me." Zhu Huating smiled.
Old lady Bai is exhausted today, and he doesn't want to make another incident, so he has the intention to take advantage of the fact that Governor Lu's mansion has left, so he will take Zhu Huating's father and daughter away, but there are still so many people around who have not dispersed, and he is not good at going back on his word in public.
He could only suppress this breath for the time being.

After leaving the Bai family for a distance, there was no one around, so the master asked Governor Lu in a low voice: "Why did your lord help today?" The boss of the Zhu family, Qiu Yan, cheated and misbehaved, although the old lady of the Bai family did something excessive, but he deserved it. ”
Governor Lu shook his head and said, "The specific reason has just been said. What's more, who let that be the father of the nine girls of the Zhu family. ”
"Miss Nine?" The master thought for a moment and asked, "The adults seem to value that little girl very much, but you know that she may not be so talented, so why are you willing to lend a hand?" ”
Lu Zhifu said: "Let me ask you, Zhu Youning will be in charge of the industry in the future, is it better for her to have parents to support her, or is it better not to come?" ”
"Naturally, it's better to have the support of your parents."
The master suddenly realized that the prefect of Lu helped Zhu Youning in order to let her have enough strength to fight the rest of the Zhu family.
The master smiled and said, "My lord is really wise. ”
"It's not wise." Governor Lu said in a deep voice, "It's just for the court." ”
The master actually couldn't keep up with the thoughts of the Lu Governor's Mansion, and he didn't understand why he must want to see the Zhu family make trouble.
But following Governor Lu for many years, the master knows what he should do and what he should not do, and he will never say much when he should remain silent.

Zhu Youning and Zhu Huating were following their subordinates all the way to the front hall at this time.
And as soon as the old lady Bai entered the mansion, he didn't bother to look at them anymore and walked away.
Although the Bai family is not as good as the Zhu family, it is a century-old family, but it is also a small surplus property, and the family is also a carved gallery and a group of servants and maids.
Zhu Huating and Zhu Youning's dress is so simple, they are worse than the maids and daughters of the Bai family, but the father and daughter are both very good-natured people, and they can be at ease in the face of all kinds of strange eyes from these people.
When I came to the front hall, I sat down on a circle chair covered with dark green elastic ink mattress, and someone served refreshments.
Zhu Youning took a sip of the tea bowl, but he didn't have the heart to taste the taste of the tea, but couldn't help but look in the direction in front of the door.
This is when she met her mother for the first time. Even if she has the memory of this body and knows what kind of person Bai is, she is still indescribably excited, maybe because she has never received maternal love, so she is looking forward to it? Or maybe it's the original owner's residual feelings for her parents that resonate with her expectations?
People who always participate in clan meetings and face hundreds of people, who can still blush and breathe, are biting their lips with a little blushing at this time, as if they are very nervous.
Zhu Huating couldn't help but laugh when he saw it, so he pushed the dim sum to Zhu Youning: "Fu Ya'er, if you're hungry, eat some first." "They didn't think of this kind of dim sum when they were at home in the past, but after a year of suffering outside the home, life can only be fed, it is difficult to eat this kind of extravagant dim sum again.
Zhu Youning shook his head: "Daddy, I'm not hungry." Then he looked worriedly, "Daddy, do you think that my grandfather will do a thing in front of me and behind my back, and this son will not let my mother come out to see us?" ”
The maidservants standing at the door bowed their heads when they heard this.
Zhu Huating also felt that she was speaking too bluntly, but if he thought about it carefully, Old Lady Bai really did such a thing, and he couldn't help but worry in his heart.
"Don't think about it so much, at least we can protect your mother's safety. Even if you are a father today, you have not come in vain. ”
As soon as Zhu Huating's words fell, there was a mixed sound of footsteps in the courtyard, and an old voice of a mother-in-law said: "Seventh aunt, you can slow down, carefully step down, you are now a person with a double body!" The old lady said that you should keep this child, and you should not get rid of it yourself. ”
"I know. I know. Mother Fang, but I'm just in a hurry. ”
……
Zhu Huating and Zhu Youning both stood up, Zhu Huating took two steps forward, and waited in place with both hands clenched.
Zhu Youning had already rushed out, standing under the porch and looking at the Bai family who was supported by the maids, and laughed.
"Mother!" Happily flew to Bai's like a little butterfly.
"Fu Ya'er, mother's good girl!" Bai Shi hugged Zhu Youning, tears raining down, "You're fine, it's great!" That day, my mother couldn't resist those recognitions, couldn't take you away, and threw you in the rain, my mother was really scared to death! If I hadn't known that you were okay later, my mother really hated to be killed by her head! ”
"Mother, don't worry, Daddy takes care of me, and Daddy is very smart and a person with great skills, didn't you take me to see you today. In a few days, we'll be able to pick you up and take you home! My grandfather should have gotten down in front of everyone! ”
"Okay, okay, I've just heard about it."
Bai's soft face was covered with tears, and although she was crying embarrassed, she did not lose her beauty at all.
Zhu Huating listened to the voice of his wife and daughter talking, he couldn't stand it, strode to the door of the main hall, and saw Bai Shi, who was wearing a lake-blue brocade gown, with a haggard face, hugging his daughter and crying and laughing.
Zhu Huating's heart was shocked, his hand suddenly clenched the door frame, and he muttered: "Zirong."
Bai Shi raised his head suddenly, met Zhu Huating's gaze, and couldn't help but cry again: "Master." ”
