Chapter 32: Aren't You Ashamed!

"Yu'er, send Mrs. Zhou back, don't rush back." The Lu clan sent the person to the door and said to the Yu Yu with a smile.

Knowing that Yu understood, her mother's meaning was that she wanted her to accompany the old woman.

"Lan Niang, I'm bothered." Mrs. Zhou nodded at Lu, and then stretched out an arm to Yi Yu, who hesitated for a moment and reached out to hold it.

The two left the small courtyard and walked towards the east of the Wumanshe, and the locals passing by greeted Mrs. Zhou very affectionately, chatted a few words, and returned to the door of Mrs. Zhou's house all the way.

It was the little boy who had seen him that day who came to open the door, and unlike the first time they came, he ignored him, greeted Yu Yu very politely, and called her Miss Lu clearly.

"Sit down." After entering the house, Mrs. Zhou withdrew her arm from the hand of the widow and sat down after going to the low case.

Yi Yu looked at the lonely cushion on the ground, felt familiar, and remembered in a blink of an eye that it was the one when she came with Li Tai that day, she glanced at Mrs. Zhou's flat look, and knew that it was not an illusion before, as soon as she entered the house, the old woman changed her face into the lukewarm she saw for the first time that day, and the friendly appearance before seemed to be deliberately made for outsiders to see, and there was no trace of it, she was really an old woman with acting skills.

Mrs. Zhou saw her "stunned" there, and said: "It is rude to wander in front of others, especially in front of unfamiliar people." ”

"I'm sorry." After apologizing, Yi Yu frowned, sat down on the cushion opposite her, looked up at her, and the two looked at each other for a long time, and then heard the old woman speak:

"Everyone is in the same room, listen more and talk less, three people in the same room, but don't speak, two people in the same room, if I don't speak, you need to speak."

Yi Yu pursed her lower lip and said, "You have something to do with me?"

Obviously, she will sit here, not because Mrs. Zhou likes her "well-behaved and sensible", nor because of "casting eyes", let alone because "no one listens to her nagging".

"A smart person may not be liked, but a person who thinks he is smart will be disliked."

Yi Yu began to wonder if she had offended this Mrs. Zhou somewhere.

"Do you have a marriage contract with King Wei?" Mrs. Zhou probably had enough stubble and asked.

There is no doubt that this old woman knew it from Li Tai.

"When talking to elders, be cautious."

"I made a note of it." Not again.

At this time, the boy who answered the door reported outside, and with Mrs. Zhou's permission, he came in with a tea tray, put it down on the low table between the two, and retreated.

Raising her hand, lining her sleeves, carrying the pot, and pouring eight points, Yiyu quietly watched her few actions of pouring tea, and some special feelings came out in her heart, seeing that she gave a cup in front of her, she said softly "Please", nodded and thanked her, held the teacup in her hand, and listened to her ask again:

"Your deceased father is the blood of the Lu family, your mother was widowed in her early years, and was later found by the late Huaiguo Gong to return to the Lu family, recognized your father as a son-in-law, and accepted your brothers and sisters as grandchildren, in order to inherit the Lu family's incense, right?"

Yi Yu frowned again and said, "Your Highness told you?" This set of rhetoric is well known to everyone in Chang'an City.

Mrs. Zhou shook her head, looked her up and down, lowered her head to blow tea, and said slowly: "Your mother is Lu Jinglan, the daughter of the late Huaiguo Gong Lu Zhongzhi, and the biological father of your three brothers and sisters is Fang Xuanling, who was the secretary of the court and the general leader of the Baisi, right?" ”

With a word, Yi Yu's face changed, and he said, "Did Han Li tell you?" ”

"After the death of Huaiguo Gong, your second brother Lu Jun disappeared, and your eldest brother was identified as killing the eldest grandson of Wuji's eldest grandson and grandson of the left servant of the court, and then died in the prison fire of the Criminal Department, you were abandoned by the Lu family and forced to leave Beijing, and then got the blue eyes of the King of Wei, and asked for marriage, which was for the side concubine of the King of Wei, and in February of the same year, he could leave Beijing in a bright and bright manner, right?"

Yi Yu looked at the old woman with a tense face, and said in a deep voice: "So what? ”

Mrs. Zhou began to show a smile on her face, which made people unable to distinguish the taste, but the ridicule in her voice pierced people's ears:

"Your grandfather is the founding hero of the Tang Dynasty, the authentic Fanyang Lu family is a descendant of the bloodline, your biological father is also a pure Confucian, a very good minister, you have to recognize the Lu family tree, for the time being, Fan Yang Lu's family lineage to your generation, there are no more than three daughters with higher blood than you, such a background, such a noble, but forced to a corner, so downtrodden to the point of sending people under the fence, to the point of being a side room, such nonsense, don't you feel ashamed?"

"Crunch", Yi Yu clenched the teacup in her hand, and the ring on her finger rubbed against the body of the cup, making a grinding sound, she pursed her lips and stared at the sharp words in front of her, but the dignified old woman did not respond.

The room was quiet, and when the tea in her hand became cold, Mrs. Zhou said calmly:

"The old man is tired, you can go back, and come back tomorrow."

Yi Yu's mind was confused, Rao had many questions, listened to her send-off, didn't stay any longer, put down the teacup, saluted her, and turned away.

Mrs. Zhou glanced at the direction she left, her eyes fell on the slightly swaying blue-brown curtains, closed her eyes, raised her hand and tapped lightly on the low table, and sighed:

"Ying Hui is more than enough, sleek and insufficient, and he is weak in the world, but he can hide and endure, and he is not unteachable."

For the next period of time, Yiyu would visit Mrs. Zhou's house every morning, but Mrs. Zhou never mentioned the life experience that day, the two were in the same room, and they didn't do anything else.

The reason why Yi Yu insisted on going every day was not because she liked this game of finding fault, but because she wanted to find out something about Li Tai's biological mother, Concubine Jin, from Mrs. Zhou's mouth, and figure out what dangerous things she asked Li Tai to do.

After getting along for days, Yiyu is still wary of Mrs. Zhou, but she can't be convinced by this nearly sixty-year-old woman, Mrs. Zhou's greatness lies not only in her face-changing kung fu of seeing people and talking about ghosts, but also surprisingly good popularity.

She talked and did things, every move, and even more unrevealed, Yiyu asked her directly about Li Tai's matter to no avail, so she knocked on the side, but she couldn't get a little useful news, she also thought about not going to Mrs. Zhou anymore, but every time this old woman left before she left, she could always leave a stubble to make her look forward to it, and she would find it again next time.

This kind of aimless visit, after lasting half a month, this morning Yu and Mrs. Zhou chatted and chatted indoors as usual, talking and talking about the hairstyle of the Tang woman, Yu Yu's hair was a simple bun in the morning, and after being disgusted by Mrs. Zhou, she asked Tong'er to go to the inner room to get a comb, tendon rope and other things, regardless of Yu Yu's refusal to comb her again, but this comb, the problem came out.

"What's going on with your face"

Listening to this rather "shocking" inquiry, Yi Yu turned his head, and saw the surprised expression on the face of this meticulous old woman for the first time, and after hesitating, he replied:

"I got into trouble on the way here, and I left this scar."

Her "understatement" explanation added Mrs. Zhou's anger to the next level, and when the hair covering her neck was lifted away, and after seeing the scratches, her whole face darkened.

"It's a shame that you can live happily every day, do you have the slightest self-knowledge as a woman"

Listening to this tone of hatred, Yi Yu suddenly felt that this old woman who had been with her for many days was actually a little cute, and as soon as her mind moved, she turned her head and showed a good tooth at her, and said:

"Mother-in-law, could you actually have the surname Lu, for example, my grandfather's long-lost sister or something?"

When Mrs. Zhou saw her like this, half of her anger disappeared, and she snorted softly: "If I am really your aunt, how can I allow you to fall into such a field." ”

Yu responded, her eyes flashed, for the first time in so many days, she got a sentence, whether it was from the tone or from the literal point of view, Mrs. Zhou was very dissatisfied with her current situation, which had nothing to do with the late Concubine Jin, and had nothing to do with the late Lu Zhongzhi, why, it needs to be verified, and it may be confirmed that this old woman has no bad intentions towards her.

"There is a strange medicine in the palace, called Snow Refining Frost, which can remove scars and remove scars, with Wei Wangtai's favor, he should have a reserve in his hand, have you ever heard him mention this medicine?"

Yi Yu was no longer surprised by her extensive knowledge, and said honestly: "Your Highness helped me write a letter back to Chang'an to ask for medicine, but there has been no reply. ”

Mrs. Zhou was a little surprised when she heard her say this, "He treats you with a good heart." ”

Yi Yu replied vaguely, subconsciously didn't want outsiders to know too much about her relationship with Li Tai, what the man promised her, as long as she remembered it clearly.

In the eyes of Mrs. Zhou, who is in the know, she is the daughter of the noble Lu family, but in Chang'an City, she is an orphan girl who offended the eldest grandson's family and was desperate to win the favor of King Wei, but if Li Tai will marry her as a concubine, I am afraid that people will only think that she is a fool's dream.

"In this way, the old body also has some scar removal ointment here, and I will try it with you."

"No, my wound is poisonous, so the scar can't be easily erased, and I've tried many prescriptions before, but it's all in vain."

Mrs. Zhou was silent for a moment, and her face returned to normal, "Accept help, whether you want to accept it or not, don't say it politely." ”

"I made a note of it." Not again.

"Anyway," Mrs. Zhou stroked her excessively long forehead hair, put down the comb, and said, "I'll teach you some makeup methods to cover up this scar temporarily." ”

After finishing speaking, he called the boy outside the door to prepare things, and after a cup of tea, the boy took a tray that was only larger than a tea tray into the house and placed it on the table.

Yi Yu looked at the few boxes of white and frightening red oozing fat powder in the tray, looked up and said with a dry smile: "Mother-in-law, I don't like to apply grease and powder. ”

"That's why you don't have the slightest self-awareness of being a woman." Mrs. Zhou glanced at her and said with some disdain.
