Chapter 32 Lu Lixin
Layue took Wanqing into the suite of the flower hall partition door, and Mrs. Shi came in with a smile with her mother-in-law, followed by a son in a moon-white robe, probably in order to make people see each other more clearly, this son did not have too much decoration, but a jade pendant was tied around his waist, but the pendant looked like an excellent mutton fat jade, showing the wealth of the family.
"Sister, what do you think of this son?" Layue asked in a low voice.
She personally thinks that this son has a moderate manners, polite words and deeds, and although his appearance is not very beautiful, he is very comfortable. The face is soft but has a temperament that is not arrogant or humble, and selfishly feels that it is a late sunny climb.
But Wanqing pouted and complained, "Where is this where the poor sour family also brought our family, and it was in vain that I spent more than an hour dressing up carefully." ”
Layue sneered, but did not speak.
Listening to Mrs. Shi's introduction with a smile, "This is Lu Lixin, the eldest son of the Lu family in the south of the city, Lu Lixin and Lu Xiucai, who is nineteen years old this year." ”
Lu Gongzi hurriedly saluted, and his mother-in-law frowned arrogantly, "Is that the Chengnan Lu family that specializes in coarse porcelain?" ”
Mrs. Shi's face froze, she didn't expect this old lady of the Zhang family to be so shameless, and she thought of what her old sister said, "You are a matchmaker for their girls?" But be careful, their old lady is very difficult, don't look at how many pounds and taels she has, she dreams of heaven every day, and I have been scolded by others several times. ”
"Old sister, don't underestimate their porcelain kilns, although they are all made of coarse porcelain, but they can't stand the high output, then there are people from Dengzhou Yandi to order their porcelain."
Seeing that Mrs. Zhang's expression was unmoved, Mrs. Shi suddenly slapped her head and said with a smile, "I forgot, this child is actually a classmate of your city!" ”
Obviously, Mrs. Shi's words did not play a close role.
Layue saw the corners of her mother-in-law's mouth and disdain at the corners of her mother-in-law's eyes, glanced at the Lu Gongzi, and said, "If you talk about reading, our family still has some talent, and I usually listen to him often talk about a few classmates who are good at studying, but I don't remember such a person." ”
Mrs. Shi's face changed, and Lu Gongzi, who had been sitting upright next to her, suddenly got up at this time, bowed to the two elders, and said softly, "When the younger generation came, my father told me not to delay for too long, the potters are all novices, for fear that they will do badly, please forgive the younger generation for disrespectfully retiring first." ”
Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Shi had angry faces and guilty faces, and they were just about to speak, but who knew that Zhang Wanqing behind the fan was already mad with anger.
Seeing that this poor sour boy dared to be so rude, he stomped his feet and ran out, pointing at Lu Gongzi's nose and scolding, "What are you, you dare to come to my house to propose!" Now that they're just looking at each other, who will take a fancy to you? You dare to retreat first! As she spoke, she grabbed the pillow in the chair next to her and smashed it.
only shocked everyone speechless, Layue was even more stupid, stunned for a moment before coming back to her senses, hurriedly ran out and grabbed the sister-in-law, snatched the pillow in her hand, and scratched her face and hands several times during the pull, finally persuaded her, and dragged her out to go back to her yard.
Afraid that something would be wrong with her mother-in-law, Layue hurriedly rushed back to the flower hall after staring at her sister-in-law.
There was silence, the mother-in-law's face was pale, the Shi matchmaker's face was angry, and the Lu Gongzi was full of disdain, but he forced himself to press it, and persuaded him in two places very politely, and he was not arrogant or humble.
"Mrs. Zhang, you misunderstand the younger generation, Lixin is the only son in the family, his father is not in good health, and last year he has gradually moved the affairs in the kiln to the shoulders of the younger generation.
Mrs. Shi also said in a bad tone, "I can be regarded as having gained knowledge today, Mrs. Zhang's daughter is so spicy, the old slave has lived for sixty years, and it is the first time I have seen such a 'true temperament' Miss Wang." ”
Layue was so funny in her heart, how dare she show half a point on her face, and she went in to comfort Mrs. Shi first with a smile.
Brought a cup of tea to serve, Mrs. Shi didn't want to take it, but thinking that the daughter-in-law that Mrs. Liu said was also pitiful, she felt sympathy, so she sighed and took the tea and took a sip, then softened her tone and said to Mrs. Zhang, "Today's day is not good, and there was such an accident, old sister, where can we say it, this is revealed, Lixin, this child must not be looked down on, let's not delay time, I will take him back, and I will talk about it later." ”
The mother-in-law snorted from her nose, gave Layue a look, and said, "I'm not very comfortable, Layue, you go and send it off." ”
Layue took Layue's hand, looked at the nails on the back of her hand and on her face and said, "Last time I heard what Mrs. Liu said that your child is pitiful, after all, the Zhang family is also ......" Shocked that this was inappropriate, she sighed, and turned back to apologize to Lu Gongzi who followed behind her honestly, "This time is your Aunt Shi's bad, I never thought it was such a bad person, I went back and told your mother that Aunt Shi was gone this time, This month, I have to tell you that a good child from a good family is married. ”
Lu Gongzi didn't dare to say, "Aunt Lu has always been good with her mother, naturally for the sake of her nephew, this young lady ...... today" He glanced at Layue and said euphemistically, "It's just a true temperament, but it's not as unbearable as Aunt Shi said, it was because the Lu family was not worthy, but you were tired of being scolded, and when I turned around, my nephew personally made two porcelain cold pillows for you to send to you, just ask Aunt Shi not to be angry." ”
Layue praised this Lu Gongzi in her heart, what a talking, eye-catching son, Zhang Wanqing is not blessed.
"Actually, Wanqing is not like this, today Xu is morning was scolded by her mother a few words, a little unhappy, I will ask her to compensate you when I go back."
Mrs. Shi looked at her and said meaningfully, "You are a sensible child, I'm afraid that you won't be able to be their master, and I don't dare to accept their gifts," Mrs. Shi smiled and said suddenly, "But ah, your child is really likable, if you don't like me, just give me two rouges, I can send it to Lixin's mother, say a few good words for your family, don't make a matchmaker and leave an enemy." ”
Layue simply responded.
Lu Gongzi, who didn't look at him next to him, suddenly asked, "Young lady, there is a thrush dew with fragrant ink in your shop, Xiao Sheng has never seen it elsewhere, and I want to ask for a few hundred taels of silver from you, I don't know if it can be mass-produced?" ”
Afraid that Layue would refuse, he hurriedly said, "Xiaosheng bought all the original price." ”
