After school. Yu Yu unhurriedly packed up her things, and during the afternoon class, most of the students in the teaching hall had their eyes rolling on her, and it was impossible to say whether it was good or bad.

In fact, the name of the second lady in the Huaiguo Mansion is not seen in the princess's rampant Guozi Prison, how great it is, especially externally, she is still recognized by a side branch.

Compared with the important ministers and the emperor's relatives, she is a second-rate identity, because of her special performance in the art competition of the five academies, she is a second-rate person.

But it's such a second-rate identity, and it's more than 100 stronger than her previous civilian background, to put it simply, it used to be a bare board and hairless, but now there are more Guogong Mansion as backers behind her, everyone talks and does things, and they have to give face, but it is not her face as a person, but the face of Guogong Mansion. is like a first-class identity like Changsun Xian, and there was such a big leak at the time of the art competition, and everyone just stinked her in private. Who would dare to point at her to her face and say something unpleasant?

Reputation determines whether a person is respected or not, while status determines whether a person is comfortable in life.

With this layer of identity, she finally doesn't have to worry about those cats and dogs coming to bite her, and she can raise her head to the princess or something, which is a good thing. She turned her head and got up with her bookbag, glanced at the eldest grandson Xian, who had been born all day today, and walked out of the school house with Du He.

As soon as her back disappeared behind the door, some of the remaining students in the room gathered together and chattered.

***

On the carriage home, there was more Lu Shuqing than before, and it was not good for the brothers and sisters to take this opportunity to talk about some secret things, and they would talk about it later in the evening, Yi Yu had the intention to shorten the distance with her, and they were all picking topics along the way, but how did Lu Shuqing and Lu Zhi cooperate, until the carriage stopped in front of the Guogong Mansion, and the two did not say a few words.

When he got out of the car, Lu Zhi saw the sneering expression on Yi Yu's face, and secretly laughed, he knew what she thought, but for him, it was no longer necessary to have a good relationship with these inconsequential people now.

The three of them walked to the front hall, and when they saw Lu Zhongzhi sitting in the hall and looking out, they all thought that he had a guest to treat, and Yu Yu asked questions. But in exchange for Old Man Lu's embarrassing light cough, he made trouble for a long time, and he was here to wait for them to come back from school.

After talking for a while in the front hall, Lu Zhongzhi took Yiyu and Lu Zhi to meet Mrs. Lu, who was waiting for them for a day, and the grandmother of the three siblings.

When I arrived at the quiet courtyard where I had been yesterday, as soon as I entered the house, I listened to the sound of conversation inside.

"Mother, if you go to sleep again today, then you won't be able to see those two children until tomorrow." This is Lu Jingshan's voice.

"With you to talk, how can my mother be so sleepy." This is the voice of a strange and hoarse old woman, "Jun'er, you can tell your grandmother something about your childhood." ”

Bypassing the screen, the first thing Yi Yu saw was a thick jujube-colored velvet blanket, on which sat five people, Lu Shi, Lu Jun, Lu Jingshan, and a silver-haired woman with a thin quilt on her knees, her demeanor was serene, her appearance was neat, and there were only a few hostas pinned to her simple bun, and her eyes were closed. Revealed her identity.

"Qingyu, Zhi'er and Xiaoyu are here." Holding Lu Zhongzhi's relict jade, hearing him call so gently, the sound of talking in the room disappeared in an instant, and the silver-haired woman turned her head in their direction, the smile on her face gradually floated, stretched out a hand, and called:

"Zhi'er and Xiaoyu are back."

Not as excited as the Lu brothers and sisters when they met, the call of the silver-haired woman actually gave Yu a feeling that they had never left this home, and they had never been separated for thirteen years.

It was the same hand that stretched out to them, but it gave Yi Yu and Lu Zhitong a completely different feeling when they saw Mrs. Fang that day, the two of them were different, after looking at each other, they saw the urging of Lu's eyes, and Lu Jingshan secretly gestured to them, and Lu Jun who stood up and walked over.

The old woman did not urge them to come, but looked at them with her eyes closed and a smile, Lu Zhongzhi gently removed the arms that the two were holding him, and the brother and sister took a few steps forward, knelt on the edge of the velvet blanket, and stretched out their hands to hold her.

When Yi Yu grabbed the silver-haired woman's hand, she sensed from its slight trembling that she was not as calm as she appeared on the surface, and paid attention to the slight light of water in her eyes, and called before Lu Zhi spoke:

"Grandmother, I'm Xiaoyu."

"Ahh Lu Mu stretched out her other hand from under the thin quilt and put it on her hand. answered twice, and when Lu Zhi also opened his mouth to call, he gently patted the back of their overlapping hands, opened his mouth, and wanted to say something, but he couldn't make a sound for a long time.

Lu Jingshan watched this and said busily: "Mother, don't you dare to cry, I am looking forward to it day and night, and I finally met someone, so I should be happy." ”

"Yes, it should be happy." Lu Zhongzhi, who was very relieved, sat down next to Lu's mother with a cane and Lu Jun's support, glanced at her sideways, and pulled the thin quilt that covered her lap again.

Lu Shi watched his father and mother and children sitting together through the tea case, and for a while, his whole heart was full.

Later, under Lu Jingshan's continuous laughter, the faint sadness that flowed in the room just now dissipated, and the family, sitting around a blanket, spent half an hour talking and laughing, and no one mentioned half of the sad things that had passed.

Dinner was served in the hall of the main room. A special long table is full of dishes, and there are benches on each side, enough for the whole family to sit, Lu Zhongzhi and his wife live on the upper seat, on the right side is the Lu family of four and Lu Jingshan, and on the left side is Lu Rongyuan, Lu Ronghe and his wife are five.

The chef of the Guogong Mansion was brought from Yangzhou, and the dishes were a little more refined than those in the capital, with more sweetness, Lu Jun was not used to eating it, but Yu Yu liked it, Lu Mu and Yu were the same. We like to eat vegetables, but in this era, vegetables are rare, and it is winter, and it is not easy to find a red and white radish on the dining table of ordinary people, but Lu Zhongzhi has an industry in Yangzhou, and a batch of fresh vegetables will be sent to the capital in ten days and half a month, such as spinach and lettuce and other serious vegetables, and there are four or five things on the table.

Xu is because he lives in the south, and the staple food of the Guogong Mansion is mostly rice, and during the meal, Lu Zhongzhi saw that the jade was delicious, so he smiled at both sides:

"You see, my granddaughter seems to have lived with us in the south."

Lu Shi sandwiched a piece of meat for Yiyu and said, "Dad, you don't know, this meal at home is just right for her appetite, she doesn't like to eat meat on weekdays, and with so many lettuce, it's enough." ”

Dou Shi, who was sitting opposite, laughed and said, "That's in our house, if it's outside and doesn't like to eat meat, wouldn't you dig wild vegetables to eat." ”

There was silence on the table, and the people at the table, except for Lu Shi, Yi Yu and Lu Jun, all turned their heads to look at Dou Shi, Lu Zhongzhi was even more stiff, and stared at the frozen smile at the corner of her mouth, Lu Ronghe put down the chopstick, and was about to speak, after Yi Yu swallowed the food in his mouth, he broke the silence in the room with a smile:

"I really let the second aunt say, we used to dig wild vegetables to eat. Although it is not as delicious as these lettuce, it has another flavor, and I can read from the book that some wild vegetables are good for the human body. ”

Seeing that she threw a slope over, Dou Shi hurriedly said: "I'm just laughing, who really guessed, hehe, Xiaoyu tastes this dish." ”

Yi Yu followed her fingers, took a piece of meat and put it in the bowl, thanked her, and the atmosphere at the dinner table circulated again, Zhao looked at Lu Zhongzhi's undisguised protection just now, and glanced at Lu again, even more suspicious.

Ignoring this little episode, the meal was quite harmonious, and after the meal, the family turned to the warm room to talk, and after a while, Lu's mother became sleepy, and Lu Zhongzhi explained a few words to Lu Jingshan and Zhao, and then accompanied her back to the room.

Lu Jingshan put down the teacup in her hand and said to the Lu family: "I have been in a hurry in the past two days, and I haven't prepared anything for you, and the food and clothing in this house are all in charge of my sister-in-law, and she will not treat you badly." ”

Zhao was named and said: "That's natural, they lack less, I have sent someone to buy, some special things, and I also wrote a list to go to Yangzhou, which will be delivered in about ten days and half a month." ”

Lu Shi looked at the sister-in-law with a serious face on the other side, compared her with the vague impression in her memory, and thanked her in a low voice.

After another quarter of an hour, it was getting dark, they each went back to the courtyard, Lu Zhi and Lu Jun were called by the steward sent by Lu Zhongzhi to speak, Yi Yu saw that Lu was a little sullen, let Pingtong and Pinghui go out to guard the door, and asked:

"What's wrong with my mother?"

After hesitating, Lu Shi said: "Xu is Niang is a little sensitive, and I always feel that it is not good to be close to them, do you think we should confess our affairs to them, maybe it will be better?" ”

Even if you give the bottom, if you look like it tonight, you won't get close. If there is no stake between people, they can naturally get along peacefully, but when interests are involved, even if they are brothers, they will turn their faces.

If there were no Lu Zhi and Lu Jun, even if the Zhao family and the Dou family held the children of the Lu family and raised them under their own names, they would be stronger than the current situation.

But it's strange enough that there are only two seedlings in her eldest brother and second brother at such a big portal of Fang Lu's house. Lu Rongyuan and Lu Ronghe both have concubines raised in other hospitals, and even Fang Qiao has two little wives, but they haven't been able to give birth to half of their sons for so many years, is it really retribution?

"Mother, don't think too much, big brother, they have their own plans, you just need to live a good life."

"Well, my mother suddenly thought of such a thing, by the way," Lu put away the depression on his face and replaced it with a strange expression, "Pingtong and Pinghui two girls, where did they come from?" ”

"Uh..."The days of living in the secret mansion are not that I can't tell the Lu family, but it's a long story, and it's really not a good time to do now.

Yi Yu's words were misunderstood by the Lu family, her face tightened, and she said, "Tongniang, to be honest, are they raised by your eldest brother and outside?" ”(！ )
