3. The man
The congratulatory banquet of the third prince of Lu lasted for three days.
After three days, Lu Kang's family, who had a happy event, was also a little unbearable, and his spirit was not so refreshing.
Early in the morning, I picked up the dishes and chopsticks, ate a few bites, and put them down.
"Sister-in-law can't drink much." Lu Ning stood beside Lu Kang and pressed her temples with his hand, "I can't sleep well and eat well after drinking this." β
In fact, there is no relief according to this, but Lu Kangshi did not refuse to serve, and closed his eyes to soothe his brows.
"That's a lot of adaptation, and next, our brother will let my sister-in-law drink more and more." The third brother and daughter-in-law said with a smile on the side.
Lu Kang's brows stretched even more, and there was a smile on his lips.
Outside the door, a girl of fourteen or fifteen years old rushed in, wearing only a small shirt and skirt and her hair scattered.
"Mother." She asked urgently, "What about Ah Qi?" β
Lu Kangshi opened his eyes, and the corners of his mouth sank: "What does the cloak look like!" β
Lu Rui is the youngest daughter of Lu Kang's family, and she is not afraid of her mother's scolding.
"Why hasn't she been sick for a few days and still hasn't gotten better? It's definitely lazy. She stomped her foot, "Today I'm going to my mother's house on Saturday to enjoy the flowers, and I'm waiting for her to comb my hair." β
Lu Kangshi looked behind her: "The maids and servants in front of you are all eating idle meals?" If it's useless, sell it all. β
The girls standing outside the hall shrank and knelt.
"They don't have Ah Qi's dexterity, and I always let her comb her hair when I go out." Lu Rui said, urging Lu Kang's, "Mother, you hurry up and take her back from your grandmother, comb her hair and send her back." β
Lu Ningshi smiled: "You have always used her, this time it is better to try your aunt's combing mother-in-law, it will definitely satisfy you." β
Lu Rui seems to believe it or not.
Lu Ning gave the maid a look, and her maid smiled and stepped forward to take Lu Rui's hand, "Miss Six, come with me." β
Lu Rui hesitated and left.
Lu Kangshi angrily scolded in the back, "What will it look like, how will you marry in the future." β
"It's called natural." Lu Ning smiled and said, "Besides, there is an elder brother like a different brother, and we Ruirui are still worried about getting married?" β
That's right, the women's net worth and status are all given by their father and brother, their father and brother are powerful, everyone looks up to them, and everything is worry-free, the corners of Lu Kang's mouth are crooked, but before he can show a smile, another servant woman hurriedly ran in.
"Madame, Madam, that Ah Qi is from Zhuangzi-"
The servant woman had apparently come back from outside, panting and sweating.
The corners of Lu Kang's mouth sank, and he slapped the table and stood up: "She dared to run back again, did she think I didn't dare to break her legs?" In the past few years, she has lived a very good life, and she really regards herself as the daughter-in-law of the Lu family? β
Speaking of this, sneered.
"Even if it's a daughter-in-law, it's just a child daughter-in-law."
What is a child bride? They are here to be slaves and maids, they can be beaten and scolded, and they can be returned.
Now that there are no guests at home, there are no outsiders, and Lu Ning's family doesn't persuade Lu Kang's anymore, so she loses her temper.
The servant took a few breaths, and before the lady called for someone, she continued: "βRan away." β
Lu Kangshi was slightly stunned: "What does it mean to run away?" β
......
......
It can't be said that it ran away.
Left a note.
Lu Kangshi looked at the paper on the table, and there was a line of words on it.
"If you lose your faith, you will return home."
The words seem to be a little weak, but they are still beautiful and elegant, and it is Ah Qi's handwriting.
The women of the Lu family are not as good as her in writing, and even the third son, who is the best in reading, has been inferior to her with a smile - of course, this must be a gentleman's humility.
This character was not learned in the Lu family, but in her own home.
Home.
Lu Kangshi sneered.
Lujia Zhuangzi is located outside the village, a courtyard with two wings, Mrs. Lu lives in the east courtyard, and Ah Qi and the maid pheasant are in the west courtyard.
On that day, they were sent back from their homes tied up, and the servants locked the door, and the food was stuffed under the door panels, and they didn't care about what they liked to eat.
Three days later, a tenant came to get a cart to pull firewood, and found that there was a cart missing in the backyard, and then said that the girl here borrowed a donkey, and a group of people were stunned, so they hurried to see the west courtyard, only to know that the person had run away.
"I inquired in the village and along the road." The steward said, "I saw a woman pulling a cart with a donkey, and there was a man lying on it, and she went east." β
"Judging by the food that was put in." The servant woman whispered, "I must have sent it back and ran away the next day." β
Lu Kangshi sneered again: "It's so backbone, I told her to get out, and she really got out." β
Lu Ningshi sighed: "Sure enough, other people's children are not familiar with it, we have been eating and drinking for so many years, and if we don't agree with each other, people don't treat this place as their home, and turn around and leave." β
The steward asked, "Are you looking for it?" β
Even if the donkey cart traveled for three days, it wouldn't go far.
Lu Kangshi said coldly: "Don't look for it, since she can't look down on my family, let her go home." β
That family is long gone, and don't expect anyone to support her.
The marriage book was burned, and there was no evidence.
In front of the Lu family, the little woman was like smoke, who would care.
Whether it is the government or the world, will they accuse them of the Lu family for that little woman?
Lu Kangshi looked at the note on the table and grabbed it, and threw it into the incense burner like burning a wedding book that day.
Lu Ning covered his mouth and nose with his hands slightly to avoid choking on the paper cigarette, and looked down to see the skirt.
"She should have been asked to make her autumn outfit earlier." She muttered, full of regret.
It's a pity that Ah Qi, who is a good embroiderer, ran away, and this year's dress can't be brightened in front of people.
......
......
Although it is a matter of the woman in the house, although she does not admit that she is a daughter-in-law, but this woman is not a slave after all, Lu Kangshi told the man in charge, Master Lu.
Master Lu has been in high spirits in the past few years, and now his son has stepped on the green clouds again, making him a little floating when he walks.
"You drink every day, you drink too much." Lu Kang's hatred.
Master Lu let her say, only smiled, and when he talked about this Ah Qi, he hesitated: "Did you really let her go?" Anyway, it's ----"
It was also a marriage contract that he personally promised, and he took it back in person.
Lu Kangshi said: "Our brother has an unlimited future, not only in his career, but also in his in-laws, and his future wife must be a nobleman." β
The person who can make them Lu Sangongzi more expensive.
What good can an orphan girl be without a father or mother? Originally, seeing that she looked good and stayed as a concubine, she was unwilling.
"She wants to be a wife, and even if she stays, the family will be uneasy." Lu Kang snorted and said, "Ruined our brother." β
Ruining the different brother is ruining the Lu family, ruining the luck of the Lu family that is about to become a big family, just a woman, Master Lu immediately threw it away.
"Thank you, ma'am." He laughed and said, "I'm so busy that I have to deal with this kind of thing." β
Lu Kangshi glared at him: "Who is to blame for this?" β
Who quietly and suddenly promised his son a family affair, and came back directly with someone?
What's even more ridiculous is that I don't know anything about my in-laws.
