Chapter 13 Tea Ceremony

Tao Yao didn't know what people were thinking, she followed behind Lu Jiuyuan, enjoying the scenery of the Guogong Mansion all the way.

It is worthy of being a big family, and compared with the Tao family, it is obviously deeper and thicker.

Pavilions, flowers and gardens, zigzag corridors, flowing water bridges, bucket arches and cornices...... All of them show the prominence of the landing family.

After walking for about half an hour, Fushoutang, where Mrs. Lu lived, finally arrived.

When the two of them entered, the Fushou Hall was already full of people.

Seeing Tao Yao coming in, they looked at her with subtle and complicated eyes.

Everyone knows that she was originally engaged to Lu Qingbai, but who would have thought that this prospective niece and daughter-in-law would marry Lu Laojiu when she turned around.

Tao Yao noticed their scrutiny and knew what was going on, but she didn't care at all.

It's not her who is wrong anyway!

She greeted the scuffles of people from all walks of life very openly.

When she entered the hall, she went up to salute the old lady sitting in the center.

"I've seen the old lady."

As early as the moment she stepped in, Old Madam Lu had already looked at her.

At this time, I saw her saluting obediently, and her wrinkled eyes were full of kindness.

"Now that she is my Lu family's daughter-in-law, Lao Jiu's daughter-in-law, is it time to change your words?" The old lady looked at the little girl in front of her with a smile, her eyebrows charitable.

Tao Yao was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted.

"Mrs. Nine, let's give tea to the old lady first." At this time, a gentle-looking grandmother placed a cushion in front of her and reminded her softly.

Tao Yao paused, and couldn't help but glance at Lu Jiuyuan, his eyes were inquiring.

Lu Jiuyuan paused and nodded slightly.

Seeing this, Tao Yao knelt down.

It seems that at this moment, whether it is expedient or not, she has to do enough to make the play.

Thinking about it, she took the tea brought by her grandmother, then raised it above her head, and said sweetly to the old lady, "Mother, please drink tea." ”

When Mrs. Lu heard this, she smiled from ear to ear, took the tea in her hand, took a sip of joy, and put it down.

Then, she took off a jade bracelet on her wrist, put it on Tao Yao's thin white wrist, and pulled her up.

"In the future, you will live a good life with Lao Jiu, if Lao Jiu dares to bully you, come and tell me at any time, I will definitely make decisions for you." The old lady shook her hand and admonished.

Tao Yao lowered his head shyly, but his eyes glanced at the jade bracelet on his wrist.

This jade bracelet is turquoise all over, and the water head is very good, and it is worth a lot of money at a glance.

The corners of her lips hooked, and she said obediently: "Got it, thank you mother." ”

The more the old lady looked at it, the more satisfied she became.

How nice this little girl is, beautiful, and vibrant, the key is that she is also well-behaved and endearing.

Thinking about it, the old lady suddenly turned her head to look at Lu Jiuyuan, "Old Jiu! Her originally kind face was more serious at this time, "I am a hundred satisfied with this daughter-in-law, people don't think you are old, they are willing to marry you, you have to love her well, don't let her be wronged." ”

Tao Yao's eyelids jumped, and he quietly looked at Lu Jiuyuan.

As soon as she looked over, she met the man's deep dark eyes.

She was stunned for a moment, but when she reacted, she withdrew her gaze with a "boom".

Lu Jiuyuan paused, frowned and nodded at his mother's eager gaze, "I know." ”

The old lady smiled, took Tao Yao's hand, and introduced the others.

"These are Jiuyuan's brothers, sisters-in-law, and nephews, you recognize people."

"Okay." Tao Yao nodded.

The old lady turned to her sons, daughters-in-law, and grandchildren and said, "You must not be rude when you first arrive. ”

Everyone's eyelids jumped.

The meaning of the old lady's words is already very obvious.

This is to make them say something.

Fortunately, everyone came prepared.

Tao Yao followed Lu Jiuyuan, and first walked in front of the uncle of the Lu family, that is, Lu Qingbai's father, Lu Boyan.

Looking at Lu Boyan's disdainful and disdainful, but faintly glowing face, Tao Yao blinked his eyes, and shouted in a sweet and crisp voice: "Big brother! ”

Lu Boyan: "......"

"Big brother?" Tao Yao saw that he didn't react, so he called again.

Lu Boyan's eyelids jumped, and he finally nodded stiffly, and it took a long time before a sentence burst out of his mouth, "Ninth brother and sister." ”

"Poof!"

As soon as he finished speaking, I don't know who laughed.

Tao Yao: "......"

Lu Boyan naturally heard it, and his face became even more ugly.

If it weren't for the old lady staring at him, he would have snatched the door out of the door a long time ago.

Lu Boyan's hand under his sleeve clenched his fist hard, what is this?

The original daughter-in-law turned around and became a brother-in-law, there is really nothing more absurd than this.

Lu Jiuyuan, a rabbit cub, can even pry down the corner of his nephew.

How embarrassed is he?

Lu Boyan was secretly angry, but he didn't dare to attack.

Noticing the old lady's gaze on him, he took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.

He took a box from the hand of the attendant, handed it to Tao Yao, and said in a proud tone: "Our big room has a breeze on both sleeves, and there is nothing long, only this calligraphy and painting can be handled, so I will give it to the ninth brother and sister, enjoy it." ”

To be honest, Tao Yao disdained to accept his gifts.

After all, on the day she crossed over, this old horseman, but he was ashamed to want her to make a side room for Lu Qingbai.

The wife has become a side room, and it is only a villain like him who has gone back on his word that he can think of it.

But in front of the old lady, she naturally didn't do that.

She took it with a smile, "Thank you, big brother." ”

Hearing this, Lu Boyan's eyelids jumped again.

Seeing this, a group of sons and nephews lowered their heads and laughed.

These nine aunts are too interesting.

"The eldest brother is very smooth, and there is no awkwardness or discomfort, in the past, I underestimated you."

At this moment, a yin and yang strange voice sounded.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Tao Yao turned his head to look, but he met a pair of eyes that were glowing with coldness and disdain.

The owner of the eyes was a woman in her early forties, with thin cheeks, thin lips, and a tense face, which was mean to look at.

Tao Yao reacted, and was not embarrassed because of the other party's deliberate difficulty.

On her little face, the smile did not decrease, "Oh, that sister-in-law thinks, how to call the young woman to be appropriate?" I just arrived and don't know the rules, so my sister-in-law might as well teach me? ”

Hearing this, the woman who spoke looked at Tao Yao's gaze even more sharply, and the corners of her mouth pursed into a straight line, obviously suppressing her anger.

This woman is Lu Boyan's wife, Lin, Lu Qingbai's mother.

After a long time, she sneered: "Sharp teeth and sharp mouth, shameless!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed.

There are those who watch jokes, there are those who disapprove, and there are those who sympathize with Tao Yao.

The old lady directly sank her face and said in a warning: "Lin, pay attention to your words!" ”

Lin was still a little afraid of the old lady, so when he heard this, he pursed his lips and didn't speak again.

"If my sister-in-law knows how to be honest, she won't say rude words on such an occasion, I think, it's you who don't know shame, and it's you who is scathing!"

In the dead silence, a majestic and cold voice suddenly sounded.

When everyone heard this, their hearts trembled.
