The ground was too slippery, Lu Shi couldn't bear the impact, and rushed forward, at that moment, Mama Kang, who had been worried, instantly moved, and when Lu Shi and the figure fell together, Mama Kang was properly pressed underneath.

Hearing another scream of "ah", the two looked back to see that the figure had been hit by a thick branch.

"Girl—girl—" The woman dressed as a maid next to her turned pale.

Lu Shi and Mama Kang struggled to get up, shocked, and finally reacted, if there was no woman, it would be the two of them who would be smashed.

"Quick, let's go see how she's doing." Seeing that Mama Kang was fine, Lu Shi ordered.

Mama Kang probably checked: "Girl, how are you?" ”

The maid cried and said, "My girl's legs and feet seem to be injured." ”

"I can't move my feet." A weak voice squeezed the tip of its tongue out of its tongue.

"I'm afraid it's broken." Mama Kang judged when she saw this situation.

"Go find the monks in the temple to help, go quickly!" Lu's Road.

Soon, the woman was transferred to the guest rooms of the temple.

There was a monk in the temple who knew how to heal the woman's injuries. Lu Shi and Mama Kang have been watching from the sidelines. Both of them are fine, so I am even more grateful.

Knowing from the monk that the woman would not leave the root of the disease, Lu Shi breathed a sigh of relief and finally put his mind at ease.

"May I ask the girl's surname, my wife is the Duchess of Xinguo, and the girl rescued her today, and she will be grateful for it in the future." Mama Kang said.

"It turned out to be the Duchess of the Kingdom." The woman wanted to get up to salute, but was stopped by the Lu family, she was a little nervous and said, "Mama, don't be polite, I also happened to be passing by, and I saw a sudden danger, so I didn't think too much about it at the time, it must have been the Bodhisattva who blessed Mrs., and Mrs. was deeply blessed." ”

"Duchess of Xinguo! What a coincidence! Last time, I wrote that the prince of the country saved the girl, and this time the girl saved the princess of the country......"

"Cai Wei!" Mei Ruolian stopped her from talking.

Glancing at Mama Kang, Lu said, "Is there such a thing? ”

"This ...... Madam, how can this be easy to speak, please don't ask again. The woman bowed her head shyly, and her voice was gentle.

Seeing that the woman insisted, Lu Shi stopped asking. She took off a golden hairpin inlaid with precious East Pearls and personally put it on Mei Ruolian's head: "Since the girl doesn't want to tell me, I can only give it as a gift, please don't dislike it." ”

The woman couldn't refuse, so she accepted it embarrassedly.

When Lu returned to his meditation room, he asked Mama Kang to send someone to check the identity of the woman and the matter of the son saving the other party.

"It turned out to be the daughter of the Mei family. It seems that the Mei family was also invited to the flower banquet last time, did she come? Lu seemed to be reminiscing, but he didn't have much of an impression.

"The old slave is not impressed."

Mei Ruolian did go to Mei's house that day, but it was Mei Ruojiao who was in the limelight, her half-sister, where did she dare to behave, and after secretly going to find the son, she stayed in the corner silently.

She wanted to get a man without those flashy methods.

"I went back and invited her to come to the house, I want to thank the people, but they were injured in order to save me, but fortunately they can recover, if they are disabled or something, what should they do with the girl? Moreover, I think it's a good thing to be wronged so much but don't want to leave a name. ”

Mama Kang agreed.

The next day, the Lu family sent Steward Zhang to bring a imperial doctor to Meifu, as well as many precious medicinal materials, such as treating bruises, stabilizing the mind, and consolidating the foundation and cultivating the yuan.

The Mei family was flattered, especially the head of the Mei family, Mei Hongchang in the Ministry of Works.

asked the reason, Mei Hongchang was relieved: he has adopted his daughter for many years, and it will eventually be useful, but fortunately, after the death of the general Yi Lingfeng, he did not let his daughter marry in a hurry.

A few days later, Mei Ruolian's injuries were not yet complete, so she handed over the post and visited the Duchess of Xinguo.

"If you're not well, don't come yet, and then go out when you're ready, so as not to fall ill." Lu Shi felt very sorry for this child.

She has two sons, one was sent to the Buddhist temple to recuperate because of physical reasons, and it is rare to see each other several times a year, and the other is completely away from home.

There is no one intimate, she has always wanted a daughter in her heart, and she is even more distressed when she sees Mei Ruolian's soft and weak appearance, especially the strong and forbearant appearance on the day she was just injured.

She had an idea, and she said, "Why don't I recognize you as my daughter." ”

She sent someone to investigate Mei Ruolian before, and knew that her life was bumpy, her mother died early, and she had a stepmother and a stepfather, so that she was almost nineteen, and her family affairs had not yet been decided.

If she had her back, it would have been different.

Mama Kang's eyes widened in surprise, and Mei Ruolian also raised her head suddenly and blurted out: "This is absolutely impossible." ”

Mei Ruolian didn't expect the other party to have such thoughts, she didn't want to be the righteous daughter of the Duchess of the Kingdom, this was a good thing that others couldn't ask for, but she just wanted to marry Qi Yuncang, the son of the Duke of Xinguo.

became the righteous daughter of the Guogong Mansion, how can she marry the prince!

Mei Ruolian was a little embarrassed, she bowed her head and said, "Thank you Madame for taking pity on Lian'er, it's just that if I recognize you as my stepmother, my father at home is afraid that ......."

Needless to say, Lu understood what she meant.

Her father may think that her stepmother is not good to her.

In fact, Mei Hongchang won't, he will only think that his daughter is very capable, and he will go to the Xinguo Mansion.

"Well, I didn't think it through. You're right, but even if we're not a mother-daughter relationship, if you encounter any difficulties, you can come to me, you know? ”

Mei Ruolian was grateful: "Thank you, madam, it is really a blessing for Lian'er to meet Mrs. in this life." ”

"Hey, why shouldn't I, if it wasn't for you that day, I'm lying in bed now." With where she was at the time, if she hadn't been pushed away, the thick branch might have hit her head, and the consequences might have been even more unimaginable.

"I've always wanted to have a caring daughter, knowing that I'm warm and cold, but it's a pity to ......" Lu's eyes flashed a little lonely.

"Mrs. is deeply blessed, and she will have a good daughter-in-law in the future, and she can also be very caring."

"Promise your good words."

Seeing that Lu Shi didn't answer her words about her daughter-in-law, Mei Ruolian was a little disappointed. But it doesn't matter, at least in the future, she will be able to enter this state mansion generously.

After Mei Ruolian left, the Lu family was a little embarrassed.

"Madam, the old slave sees that you really like Miss Mei." Mama Kang said.

Lu Shi did not deny it: "Mama Kang, Sister Lian is indeed a rare good girl, if it is an ordinary person, the Duchess of Guo wants to be her stepmother, it is unbelievable, but Sister Lian has thought about it so much, she is a delicate and transparent person." ”

Lu couldn't hide his regret. Since I was a child, I didn't have the protection of my mother, so I was so sensitive!

"Madame doesn't have to feel pity, she really likes it, then let her marry into the Guogong Mansion, wouldn't it be beautiful? Just now, Miss Mei said that a good daughter-in-law can be very caring. ”

"Daughter-in-law?" Lu Shi didn't think about it this way, she was silent for a few breaths, and shook her head, "Hey, as a daughter-in-law, this background is still a little lower." "No matter how much you pity others, you can't go past your own son.

"It's a pity that the eldest girl of the Dingning Marquis Mansion ......" Mama Kang knew that the Lu family had taken a fancy to her before, even before the flower viewing banquet, the Lu family, who knew a lot about the nobles in the capital because of the choice of daughter-in-law, was also amazed by Feng Jiaxian.

It's just that something happened to her and Gu Liulang later......

"I didn't expect such a thing to happen, this Gu Guifei also asked Princess Jingyang to learn the piano with her." Lu Shi wondered.

Mama Kang was blessed to her heart: "Some people also said that the incident with Gu Liulang at that time was because someone couldn't see her well, so they did it deliberately." ”

The two glanced at each other: Recently, the Xinguo Mansion elected the princess, and there is more than one family who wants to marry into the Guogong Mansion.

"But she and Gu Liulang did meet."

She said that she was holding the qin, and she loved the "falling spring" piano so much that she was reluctant to let others touch it, so she had to go by herself. Originally, I was going to find the qin master, but later I met Gu Liulang, who didn't know Gu Erye's qin cutting skills, Xu is two people had negotiations, and they were later slandered when they were bumped into. ”

"There's some truth to that." The Lu family also has very favorite things, and they are reluctant to be touched by others, "It's just that they are a little out of consideration when they encounter problems." ”

"People are still young, they all need to be taught, if you are lucky enough to enter the Guogong Mansion, you have to teach it yourself, don't you?" Mama Kang knew about Lu's entanglement.

"Yes, after all, her mother is a merchant, and she is somewhat unruly in teaching her daughter, and it is good that she can do this."

Feng Jiaxian's mother's background is her minus.

"Let's take a look!" Anyway, now, she can't look down on other people.

"Actually, Miss Mei doesn't have to be a wife, it's good to be a concubine in the mansion!" Mama Kang smiled and replaced Lu with new tea.

"This is not good, although her father is not from a high background, but she is also a concubine in the family, how can she be a concubine? It's not appropriate. Lu dismissed the idea.

As the main room, the Lu family doesn't like the concubine very much, and they really like Mei Ruolian, and they don't want her to be their son's concubine.

"What if she wanted to?" Mama Kang said.

Lu Shi was stunned: "She? Would she be willing? ”

After Feng Jiaxian had a bad reputation with Gu Liulang in the capital, she kept sending people to keep an eye on the Xinguo Mansion, and on this day she actually got the news that Mei Ruolian was a guest at the Guogong Mansion.

Because of her concern for the prince of Xinguo, she knew everything about everyone who went to the flower banquet that day, and Mei Ruolian's sense of existence has always been very low, judging from the situation on that day, the Duchess of Guo should not know Mei Ruolian very well at that time, so how could she go to the Guogong Mansion alone as a guest?

Thinking of this, she thought of Su Yansheng, she had also been a guest at the Guogong Mansion alone, and she also wanted to have such qualifications very much.

"My sister doesn't seem to be in a good mood, what's wrong? Is it because of Cousin Su again? "Feng Heng came back last time for Feng Jiaxian, and this time it was really a vacation.

"That's not it, Cousin Ah Yan didn't do anything to be sorry for me."

"Although my sister seems to have something on her mind, her subordinates still have clear ideas, and my eldest brother still can't win against you."

The two played chess, and Feng Jiaxian won since childhood.
