Chapter 118: Stayed for one night

(PK50 Plus Update)

Seeing Lu Zhi speak up, let the Lu mother and daughter go to rest first. Lu Zhongzhi knew that he didn't want the mother and daughter to hear something, so he nodded, and called the guards outside to come in and take them to the side room, Lu didn't persuade Lu Zhi anymore, and only told them to rest early after sighing lightly, Yu Yu glanced at her eldest brother quietly, and then lowered her head and followed her mother out.

The butler-like servant took them to a side room on the east side, and in the small hall at the entrance there were four gauze lamps, and the room was very elegantly furnished, and incense was burned, and then two maids entered, and placed six delicate snacks and two cups of soup on the table, and then withdrew.

"Madam, Miss, you two use some supper first, and you can bathe when the hot water is boiled, the little Lu Yong, just wait in the yard, if there is something, you can call the little one directly." The servant named Lu Yong bowed to the mother and daughter sitting in the chair and stepped out.

Yi Yu held a bowl on the table and opened it, and looked at the contents by the light. In addition to glutinous rice, there are about white fungus wolfberries and the like, and there are also some translucent filaments, and the warm aroma comes out, with a faint sweet taste.

Seeing that Lu Shi was a little absent-minded, she handed the cup over, "Mother, look at what kind of porridge this is, it smells very good." ”

Lu Shi took a look, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and said, "This is bird's nest porridge, it is a tonic, you can drink it while it's hot." ”

Yi Yu nodded, took another cup, she was not a rich person in her previous life, so she only heard of the name of this kind of bird's nest and did not see it, although she has no worries about food and clothing in this life, but these twenty taels of silver and one or two goods are not luxurious.

She scooped a spoonful and put it in and tasted it, the taste was very sweet, the entrance of the bird's nest was very smooth, she was already a little thirsty, and she drank up the soup in the cup after a while.

"Is it good?" Seeing her put down the empty cup, Lu Shi asked softly.

"Well, it tastes good."

Lu Shi also pushed the cup in front of him, "Mother doesn't like this taste, you can eat this bowl too." ”

"Don't, you eat."

Lu Shi smiled and quipped, "Mother is not hungry." If you think it's delicious, drink more, but my mother won't have the money to buy you these in the future. Although she was smiling, there was a hint of bitterness in her eyes, she had naturally eaten these things since she was a child, but her three children had never even heard the names of these rare objects.

"Mother, no matter how good it is, it's the taste after tasting it, we don't have the money to buy it or eat it, isn't it okay, is your daughter such a gluttonous person?" Yi Yu saw that Lu was a little uncomfortable, and pretended to be dissatisfied.

Seeing that she insisted on not eating anymore, Lu Shi put the bowl on the lid and put it aside, she didn't plan to use these things, from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, when she went to the countryside at the beginning of the year, the first time she ate wotou and wild vegetables, she vomited for two days before she could swallow it, fortunately, she was good at cooking, and gradually she could make those grains delicious.

The two ate a few more snacks, and the next person knocked on the door to deliver water, and there was a small cubicle on the side of the hall. There were six flowers and birds outside, and two servants carried smoking hot water back and forth several times before going out, and the maid who had sent supper before came in and closed the door, and respectfully invited Lu's mother and daughter to bathe.

Yu Yu was not uncomfortable, when she was in the apricot garden, she was unable to move, and the maids were waiting for the bath, but Lu Shi sent people away, and pulled her around the back of the screen, and saw two steaming bath tubs placed side by side.

The jade is soaked in the hot water, and the back of the neck is pillowed on the edge of the bath bucket, only feeling extremely comfortable, although there are also servants in the Kun Courtyard who can make the boiling water to take a bath, but they can only use a small basin to shower, which is more comfortable than such a large bath bucket with hot water.

There is a silver plate on the high table on the side, and there are two or three pancreas of different sizes on the plate, which are much more regular and smooth than the shapes they usually use every day, and Lu Shi pointed to her one by one, washing hair, wiping the body, and cleansing the face, with different functions, Yi Yu sighed in his heart, wondering if he would also have to make the toiletries so complete in the future.

After bathing, the mother and daughter changed into the brand-new white silk shirt prepared before, the size was almost fit, and Yi Yuxin said that this old man Lu had prepared it enough.

The maid had already made the bed, the porcelain pillow and silk quilt, the snow tent and the warm mattress, and the mother and daughter quickly became sleepy when they lay on the bed, just when the jade was in a daze. Suddenly, I heard Lu Shi whispering:

"Yu'er, don't blame your grandfather, he was also forced to do so, before my mother left the cabinet, among the four children of your grandfather and grandmother, the most carefree one, and later married, before the two families fell out, they also took good care of me......"

Lu Shi told her some past stories, all of which were words about how her mother's family treated her well back then, and Yi Yu knew that she was afraid that she was guilty, so she could only comfort her loudly: "Mother, as long as you are good, no one will complain about Yu'er." ”

Lu Shi stretched out his hand and hugged her into his arms, and said "um" softly, Yi Yu rubbed his little face in Lu Shi's arms, but she was sighing in her heart, she was the same as Lu Shi, in some cases, she was a person who was easily soft-hearted, but even if she didn't resent the old man Lu, she couldn't treat him as a relative, just like Lu Zhi said. She doesn't trust them either.

Thinking of the last look of Lu Zhi in the hall just now, her heart suddenly felt that if someone in this world can be said to know Lu Zhi, then she must be the best, even the Lu family doesn't know the hidden side of her son.

There is no doubt that Lu Zhi is smart, he looks like a slightly humble person on his face, but he has a bit of arrogance and coldness in his bones, and he is a jealous and hateful person. Lu Zhi recognized Lu Zhongzhi, and the purpose was not as simple as he imagined.

But no matter what the reason for him to recognize Lu Zhongzhi and what his purpose was, she didn't plan to ask, because she believed that no matter how deep Lu Zhi's mind was, he would not hurt the Lu family and hurt them like Fang Xuanling and Lu Zhongzhi back then.

As soon as the day dawned, Lu Shi woke up, put on his clothes and shouted out to Yu Yu, and just put on her tuck skirt, he heard a whispered inquiry from outside the door.

"Ma'am, are you awake?"

Lu Shi walked into the hall and opened the door of the house, and the four maids came in with all kinds of things in their hands, and bowed to Lu Shi, "The slaves and maids are waiting for the lady to freshen up." ”

After Lu's hesitation, he should get down, the maids neatly brought water to their mother and daughter, because the jade had to go to school next, after wearing regular clothes, and let them comb their own simple hair bun with a hosta to fix, but Lu's is different, there is a carved wooden cabinet in this room, the maids asked Lu's favorite color, and then selected a complete set of skirts and shawls from it to change clothes for her.

Lu Shi directly refused, "No, I'll wear this." ”

One of the pink-clothed maids with a corset skirt lowered her head and persuaded: "Madam, the clothes in this cabinet are all new, and the old lady ordered them to let the slaves and maids serve you well." ”

"Just listen to me." Lu Shi didn't look at those delicate clothes anymore, turned around and walked to the dressing table and sat down, and asked the one who had just combed Yiyu's hair to comb her hair. The pink-clad maid could only bite her lower lip, and her eyes motioned to the other two to put the clothes back in the cabinet and put them away.

A total of four jewelry boxes of different sizes were placed on the dressing table, and the pink-clothed maid stepped forward and opened all four boxes, and saw that the gold and silver jewelry were full of dazzling colors, and the jade was standing on the side, and her eyes were flashed by this piece of golden light. Compared with the jewelry they spent thousands of taels of silver on before, each piece is not far behind, and these four boxes add up, I am afraid that it will cost more than a thousand taels of silver.

The pink-clothed maid picked out a pure gold twisted silk peony and was about to compare it to Lu's head, but she reached out and stopped her, "Don't use these." After speaking, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the hairpin ring she took off yesterday on the table, "Use what I brought." ”

"Madame doesn't like gold and silver?" The sixteen-year-old maid didn't seem to hear Lu's words, but asked softly, "Why don't you change the jade ornament for you to wear?" She reached out and rummaged through another box.

Lu Shi said in a deep voice: "I said to use what I brought, didn't you hear?" ”

The pink-clothed maid's hand in selecting jewelry trembled, and she quickly retreated and knelt on the ground, and said in a slightly frightened voice: "The slave knows her mistakes, and I hope Mrs. will forgive her sins." ”

"Alright, you get up." Lu frowned and asked her to get up, but the maid still knelt motionless.

Lu Shi stopped talking, and let her kneel on the ground, and after Yi Yu glanced at the pink-clothed maid kneeling on the ground, she pinned the jewelry that Lu Shi wore last night on the dressing table to her hair one by one.

The mother and daughter packed up and went to the hall, where breakfast had been set up on a round table of Nanmu, the two drawers of delicate small buns were radiating heat, the six dishes were different, and there were two kinds of porridge each in a celadon bowl.

At this time, it was already more than half of the hour, and as soon as I finished eating breakfast, I saw Lu Yong, who I had seen last night, standing outside the door, and said respectfully: "Madam, the old lady asked the little one to call you." ”

"Hmm." Lu Shi pulled Yu Yu up and followed him out of the room where he had stayed for one night.

After they left, the pink-clothed maid who was kneeling on the floor of the inner room slowly stood up with the dressing table, and several other maids in the room hurriedly greeted her, "Sister Yijia, are you okay?" ”

The maid named Yijia stiffened her face, glared at them fiercely, and said, "Hmph! I didn't see you speaking for me just now, but now I am pretending to be kind, and I think you are eager to see me make a fool of myself in front of outsiders. ”

After saying that, she stomped her feet and walked out of the wing room on her own, and when she was far away, the remaining maids in the house whispered:

"Hey, it's just the second master's room, and it's still a faceless, if it weren't for the second lady taking care of the old lady in Yangzhou, which round would she be arrogant."

"That is, if you say that the sky is not the same as us, she is still a maid, and the old lady personally let the guests served by Haosheng, and she dares to make a face."

"Don't say it, hurry up and clean up the house, and when the second aunt and grandmother come back, I don't know how to lose my temper when I see her house in chaos like this." (! )
