Chapter 238: Things Take a Turn
Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!
Soho went to see Zhao Ping.
Bai Susu didn't follow, so I don't know what the two of them said, but after coming back, Soho was like a different person, she swept away her previous depression, and the whole person suddenly became energetic.
"I'm going to open a lo-mei restaurant." This is what Soho said after meeting Zhao Ping.
Mingxiang and Zhao Tie were both confused by her decision, but thinking that it was not a bad thing for her to do a lo-mei restaurant, naturally there was nothing to disagree with.
When Liu Daniu's case was decided, Sun Daren remembered that Soho had suffered a lot, and took 200 taels of silver from the seized finances of Liu Daniu's house and gave it to Soho. But Soho refused, she didn't want to have a little more to do with Liu Daniu.
This time, Soho took the initiative to go to the yamen, and she asked Lord Sun for the compensation of two hundred taels of silver.
For her, not only Mingxiang and her family, but also Bai Susu couldn't figure it out, looking at Soho's appearance, she seemed to be in a hurry to make a lo-mei restaurant, and even her eagerness had been undisguised on her face.
Bai Susu had a faint premonition in her heart that Soho was hiding something from them, but looking at her appearance, she really couldn't think of anything.
"It's probably the uncle who persuaded her." Mingxiang sighed, "But that's fine, she can do something and save herself from thinking all day." I guess Uncle wants her to be happy, too. ”
Zhao Ping's feelings for Soho once surprised both Zhao Tie and Mingxiang, since he was a child, Zhao Ping was not a person who was good at words, and even rarely had strong likes and dislikes. No one knows when and why his feelings for Soho began, but he couldn't hold it back from the beginning, and even lost his life.
"I'm always a little worried that she doesn't really want to open it like this, so she doesn't have any plans." Bai Su is worried.
"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on her side, if something is wrong with her, I'll immediately let the iron head find a way to stop it." Mingxiang will be in the confinement, plus she just gave birth to a small one, and her energy is far from enough, and now she can only rely on Zhao Tie.
"You guys are staying here for the time being, Zhao Tie is a man after all, and he can't keep an eye on Soho. I'm paying attention to her side, you just need to take care of yourself. "Bai Susu is not a nosy person, but Soho's affairs have been managed until now, and he is not bad enough to take care of it directly to the end.
"Auntie, the affairs of the slave maid's family have caused you so much trouble, and the slave maid is really sorry in her heart." Mingxiang is both grateful and guilty.
Especially seeing Bai Susu doing her best to help her family's affairs, this guilt is even deeper.
"Auntie, the little master of Huai'an actually ......" Mingxiang was just halfway through her words when she was interrupted by Chunlan's voice from the door.
Chunlan's loud voice quickly floated in like her people, "Auntie, the adults are looking for you." Go back quickly. ”
Bai Susu then remembered that she had promised to have lunch with Lord Lu at noon, she reached out and knocked on her forehead, "Look at my memory, I almost forgot it." ”
After she finished speaking, she was about to leave in a hurry, and when she turned around, she seemed to remember something, "By the way, what did you say about Huai'an just now?" ”
Mingxiang shook her head and said, "The slave maid is saying that the little master of Huai'an looks very similar to an adult." ”
Bai Susu smiled, "It's not just an image, it's carved out of a mold, needless to say, you know it's the son of an adult." ”
After she finished speaking, she walked out the door, leaving Chunlan behind her, frowning and looking at Mingxiang, "Are you stupid, have you forgotten how the adults explained?" ”
Mingxiang lowered her eyes, she forgot there, it was because she remembered that she had been guilty, she suddenly raised her head and looked at Chunlan, "Are we going to hide it from our aunt all the time." Young Master Huai'an is obviously his aunt's child. ”
"But what can I do?" Chunlan asked rhetorically.
Mingxiang frowned and opened her mouth but couldn't speak, yes, what can you do if you know. The child has passed the ancestors, is on the family tree, and is the son of the Luo family.
"Then we can't keep my aunt from knowing like this, my aunt treats us well, and we can't stand her like this." Mingxiang lowered her head and said.
"It's up to you to say, can I not know?" Chunlan sighed, she put away her usual grinning appearance, and became rare and serious, "This matter will be solved by adults, what we can do is to serve my aunt well, and it is our duty to make her live comfortably." ”
Mingxiang has always looked down on Chunlan, Chunlan has not caused trouble over the years, and her temper is very bad like a cannon commander, and she needs her master to solve her troubles from time to time. Such a maid is Aunt Bai who is not picky and keeps, and if she is someone else, she has already been sold one hundred and eighty times.
But today she looked at Chunlan and felt both familiar and unfamiliar, she thought about it and laughed to herself, "Indeed, you are right, we as maids only need to serve the master well." ”
Chunlan didn't stay in the house for long, and soon she left.
After Bai Susu left from Mingxiang's place, he went back to the courtyard directly, and the adults in the house sat on the chair with a calm face, and Lu Huai'an and Jin Cao were on the left.
Luo's old illness has recurred in the past few days, and she has been drinking medicine for several days, she is afraid that Lu Huai'an will not let him get close to Lu Huai'an, and it just so happens that Lu Zhiyuan is on Zhuangzi, so basically Lu Huai'an has been on Bai Susu's side these days.
Jin Cao is the same age as him, and the two children can play together.
"Mother is back." Jin Cao was the first to cheer when she entered the door, jumped down from the stool and pounced, her voice aggrieved, "Mother, I'm hungry, and my father said that you can't eat if you don't come back." ”
Lu Huai'an glanced at them, then retracted his gaze and continued to be silent, he looked at Bai Susu and Xiao Jincao together, worried about Luo.
The three-year-old and almost four-year-old child already knew a lot of things, and he knew that Roche was sick, and he was very sick, so he felt a little uncomfortable.
Bai Susu secretly glanced at Lord Lu's black face like the bottom of the pot, and automatically consciously stayed away from this piece of ice, sitting on the edge of the golden grass, she said with a smile, "My lord, let's have dinner." ”
Lu Zhiyuan glanced at her, ignored her, and reached out to pick up the chopsticks.
Bai Susu quietly stuck out her tongue, this is angry, it seems that she will have to be coaxed for a while, she kept a smile on her face, reached out and put a piece of pork ribs in the golden grass bowl, "Eat." ”
Jin Cao likes to eat meat the most, which is very similar to Bai Susu, she just learned to hold chopsticks, clumsily used her fingers to hold the ribs in the bowl, and did not clip it, and finally she threw the chopsticks and grabbed them with her hands.
"I said you girl, how come you are like a monkey." Bai Susu raised her eyebrows and scolded while holding a handkerchief to wipe her oiled hands clean, "You are not allowed to eat with your hands, eat slowly with chopsticks." ”
Jin Cao pursed her mouth, she is a female doll who can read colors, seeing that Bai Susu seems to be angry, she doesn't dare to be disobedient, and honestly takes chopsticks and continues to fight with the ribs in the bowl.
As soon as Bai Susu turned his head, he saw Lu Huai'an sitting between Jincao and Lu Zhiyuan, he had been sitting with his head down, the rice in the bowl had not moved, and he didn't know what to think with his head down.
"Eat ribs." Bai Susu also sandwiched a piece for Lu Huaian and put it in the bowl.
"Thank you, Aunt Bai." Lu Huaian thanked her, but he didn't want to move the chopsticks.
Bai Susu looked at Lu Zhiyuan and asked him for help.
Lu Zhiyuan naturally also discovered Lu Huai'an's abnormality, he put down his chopsticks and said to Lu Huai'an, "Why don't you eat?" ”
Lu Huai'an was most afraid of his father, especially when he heard his stern tone, he was extremely afraid. But children are afraid of their fathers and have a little reverence, Lu Huai'an is no exception, he hesitated and said, "I, I miss my mother." ”
Lu Zhiyuan almost blurted out that your mother is here, and only then did he remember that Lu Huai'an was referring to Luo's mother.
He subconsciously glanced at Bai Susu, and saw that her face was as usual, so he looked back at Lu Huai'an, and his tone couldn't help but soften a lot, "Your mother is sick and needs to rest now, you will affect her rest in the past." ”
Lu Huai'an's eyes were red, he looked at Lu Zhiyuan with big eyes, and almost spoke with a crying voice, "I'm not going to disturb my mother's rest, I'll watch the meeting at the door." ”
This was not only Lu Zhiyuan, but even Bai Susu was a little sad when he heard it. She spoke, "It's natural for a son to worry about his mother, so let Huai'an go over to accompany his wife." ”
Lu Zhiyuan sighed slightly, he picked up his chopsticks and put a chopstick green vegetable in Lu Huai'an's bowl, "Eat the meal first, and I'll send you back later." ”
Lu Huai'an's eyes lit up as soon as he heard that he could go back, and he quickly picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
Lu Zhiyuan saw him like this, and his mood was more complicated. Originally, he wanted Bai Susu and Lu Huai'an to have more contact so that he could cultivate some feelings, so that Lu Huai'an would be easy to accept if he knew who his biological mother was in the future.
But he has a headache now, no matter how many wrong things Luo has done before, there is one thing she has done very well, that is, she has done her best in Lu Huai'an's upbringing, and she is completely raised as her own son.
How much effort Luo has put in, he will naturally get a lot of affection from Lu Huai'an, this kid has begun to remember now, some things can't be decided rashly, otherwise it is very likely to be self-defeating.
Bai Susu thought that Lu Huai'an's child was really good, although she had been in contact with him a few times, but she liked it inexplicably, and that kind of liking was as if this child was her own.
After Lu Huai'an had eaten, Lu Zhiyuan sent her to Luo's side, Bai Susu watched them go out, and there was a faint sense of resistance in his heart, but after careful study, he felt that this feeling was so inexplicable.
Luo's health is very poor, and the weather has become cooler in autumn recently, and the wind chill has become more serious.
She was lying on the bed, covered with two layers of quilts, but she still felt chills all over her body, and her face was even more pale and bloodless.
Qingmei went to wash a hot towel for Roche to put on his head, and then turned around and put a new stove into the quilt, "Madam, it won't be cold if you hold the stove." ”
Luo raised her eyelids weakly, she pulled the corners of her lips, and her voice was hoarse, "What about Huai'an?" ”
Qingmei felt uncomfortable in her heart, but she still said with a smile on her face, "Little Master Huai'an is with adults now, don't worry." When you are better, the little master will be back. ”
As she said this, a little maid at the door hurriedly ran into the door, "Madam, the lord has led the little master over." ”
