Chapter 6: Trouble
Thirty-five years of heaven.
One of the five major clans, the Lu family's mansion, back mountain.
"Lu Xiyan! Lu Xiyan! You come down for me!! β
Fifteen-year-old Joan also sat on a tree with her arms crossed, her two thin legs dangling in her dress, and she raised her head in a crisp voice: "Who are you called?" Lu Yanshan, you have the ability to come up! β
The girl named Lu Yanshan under the tree stared at her eyes and gritted her teeth: "You! I... I......! She clenched her fists, looked at Qiong Yi who was proud of the spring breeze on the tree, and said angrily: "Do you believe that I told my mother?!" β
"Ahh I'm so scared! β
Joan also pretended to be frightened, and then smiled and said, "Say, do you think I'm afraid?" Who did this after all, don't you know the bottom of your heart? β
ββ¦β¦ All pushed on me? Lu Xiyan is so powerful. The most unsightly thing for Lu Yanshan was that the person in front of her was invulnerable, smiling and grinning at herself, she snorted: "You come down!" β
"Another fight?"
"Still fighting? Hit you in the head! If you have the ability, you will always stay on it! Whoever provokes the trouble will clean it up!! Lu Yanshan didn't want to say a word to this person anymore, so she turned her head and left, and Qiong Yi's clear and bright voice came from behind her: "Then you have to clean up well, don't let Mrs. find out." β
Seeing Lu Yanshan leave with anger, Qiong Yi laughed alone on the tree for a long time.
"Laugh, come down."
There was another man's voice under the tree, soft and bright, and Joan knew who was coming as soon as she heard it, and she glanced down to see a girl in a coarse linen dress standing under the tree, looking at her with a half-frowning brow.
Joan also chuckled, then expertly jumped from the tree and landed lightly.
"Arlo." She greeted her with a smile, revealing a pair of small tiger teeth.
Zhu Yunluo said with a little disgust: "Qiong Yi, how old are you, why do you still like to make such a fuss?" β
Qiong also stuck out her tongue and whispered, "What's wrong with me?" It's just Lu Yanshan, she provoked me again......"
Zhu Yunluo's ear strength is not bad, and she can hear clearly: "Did Miss Lu provoke you, or did you provoke her?" β
Qiong also heard her say this, and disagreed in her heart, arguing: "She hates me so much, I am provoking her by standing in front of her!" Didn't she want to fight me because she didn't like me......"
Seeing that she didn't know what was wrong, Zhu Yunluo shook her head: "I know that you and Miss Lu have always been at odds, but you can't cause trouble." β
"I didn't!" Qiong also raised his head, and his purple eyes were full of righteousness: "I really didn't break that glass bucket color bottle!" β
recalled that an hour ago, Qiong Yi and Lu Yanshan met in the front hall, only because they rubbed each other when they staggered each other, and suddenly turned into a bare-handed fight, and the congratulatory gifts sent by other families in the hall shook off the table and shattered.
The fight was fought together, can she be blamed alone?
Yao Qiong also said that the fist wind was brought by Lu Yanshan, and she had to take full responsibility.
So she still has a clear conscience when she says this.
Zhu Yunluo was suspicious in her heart, and she was still not very relieved when she saw Qiong Yi's conclusive appearance, and said: "You should go to dinner later, go early, Madame seems to have something to say." β
"Dinner? Won't that be an hour? What are you doing so early? Joan also looked at the sky and measured the time, "I didn't go so early." Don't want to go. I'm going to spend some time with Alodo! With that, he took Zhu Yunluo's hand.
"If you don't go, you'll be punished again." Zhu Yunluo bent the corners of her lips and squeezed Qiong Yi's hand. "Obedient."
Qiong Yi pursed her lips and said, "Master and Senior Brother haven't come back, and Lu Yanshan doesn't want to see me, if I go, she may have to say something to Lu Xu." β
"The eldest prince is back." Zhu Yunluo coaxed, "Tonight's dinner is a reception banquet for the eldest prince." β
Joan's eyes lit up, "Really? Big brother is back? Seeing her reaction like this, Zhu Yunluo responded, "Hmm." It's time to go out and practice for a year. β
Among the inner disciples of the Lu family, in addition to most of the disciples who have a good relationship, the senior brothers Lu Yuhao and Qiong are the closest.
"You were punished last time, but this time you have to be careful not to make Madame angry again. You have to remember that our status has long been different, you are the descendant of the sect master, and I am still a miscellaneous servant, you don't need to stand up for me, and I don't want you to get hurt for me like last time. Zhu Yunluo pressed Qiong Yi's shoulder, and her brown eyes shone with a little light.
Qiong also turned her face away and didn't look at Zhu Yunluo, "I don't understand, everyone is the same person, why do you have to divide the high and low?" She paused for a moment, then continued, "I don't know why, everyone thinks that I was chosen as a protΓ©gΓ© by my wife from a miscellaneous cultivator, what a gift......
"Joan! How many times have I told you. Zhu Yunluo frowned slightly, and said with a straight face, "The kindness of the sect master's wife, you should keep it in your heart." The past has long passed, and you are now the 'Lu Xiyan' of the Lu family, not Xiao Qiongyi, who was brought up by your grandfather. β
Joan also inhaled and muttered to herself in her snort, "I don't like the name." β
"Well, I still have some things to tell you." Zhu Yunluo's face slowed down, patted her shoulder gently, and pinched the tip of her nose after Qiong Yi raised her head, "The glass bottle that you and Lu Yanshan broke was sent by the Sheng family." β
"What happened to the Sheng family?"
"Let's not mention how much it is worth, the generous gift sent by the Sheng family today has been shattered, and I am afraid that it will be criticized by others if it is passed on." Zhu Yunluo paused, "I heard that everyone in Taiyang City is saying that according to the momentum of the Lu Sheng family, I am afraid that they will get married." β
Speaking of marriage, Qiong Yi's face immediately appeared in her mind, and what came to mind: "The Sheng family's direct lineage, there are no girls, right?" Then you can only marry, and if you can marry, it seems that only the second son of the Sheng family can be married? Isn't he deaf? β
"Having said that, Mrs. will definitely not let the Lu family suffer such grievances. The third son of the Sheng family, you should have heard of it, his name is Sheng Hao, although he has not reached the crown, but he is highly rated in the family, if you want to marry, it should be him and Miss Lu Yanshan, the two are also similar in age. β
"Then it has nothing to do with me." Qiong was also very dazed, not knowing what Zhu Yunluo told her to do.
Zhu Yunluo stared, "This is to tell you that eighty percent of the glass bottle is a gift from Miss Lu's future husband's family, it doesn't matter if she drops it, but as far as you are concerned, you will be punished!" β
After speaking, he added: "Don't provoke Miss Lu again in the future, you know?" β
Qiong was also unhappy when she thought of Lu Yanshan's high-flying and domineering behavior on weekdays, "She can't get used to me, where can I get used to her!" Seeing Zhu Yunluo's slightly dark expression in a blink of an eye, he had to change his words, "Okay, Ah Luo, I won't mess with her, I don't care about her if she provokes me." β
"Hmm."
As they spoke, they had unconsciously walked down a mountain full of ginkgo biloba, and in front of them was a paved stone road, and the lush trees on the side of the road reflected the vague outlines of houses in the distance, standing in a setting sun.
"Just send me here." Walking to the entrance of the garden, Qiong also stopped and said to Zhu Yunluo.
Zhu Yunluo nodded slightly.
*
The scenery of Lujiahou Mountain is famous for the ginkgo biloba full of mountains, the stairs made of white stone meander down, and there are several white stone lamps on one side, which is elegant and elegant. The house in front of the hill has a very elegant name, which is called Ginjo Garden.
Qiong also returned to his bedroom in the garden, just sat down and thought about what Zhu Yunluo had instructed, and when he was thinking about it, there was a soft knock in front of the door, and a clear and gentle male voice sounded: "Little Wu, it's time to eat." β
"Big brother!" Qiong Yi was very familiar with this voice, she immediately got up and opened the door, only to see a young man standing outside the door, with a handsome appearance and a long posture, it was the son of the Lu family, Lu Yuhao.
Qiong Yi walked up to him and grinned at the man outside the door, "Senior brother is back!" Then when he looked up and looked at Lu Yuhao carefully, he pressed his hand and stroked his head: "Xiao Wu hasn't grown a lot taller in a year." β
Compared with Lu Yuhao a year ago, he is taller now, and his eyebrows and eyes are much more mature and heroic, especially the chic and warm temperament between gestures, which has never been seen before.
"Why! I haven't grown up as fast as my brothers and sisters this year. Joan also protected her head and muttered. Then he asked, "When did the senior brother come back?" β
"Soon in the afternoon, it's just over two hours." Lu Yuhao helped Qiong also close the door when he spoke, and looked back and smiled, "Did you miss me?" β
"I want to die!" Qiong Yi smiled, jumped up and threw herself into Lu Yuhao's arms: "I think about it every day!" Lu Yuhao couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and sighed, "It's the same as when I was a child." Then he let go of his hand, "Let's go to the main hall for dinner." β
Side room of the main hall.
There were already a few disciples sitting in the side room, and when they saw Qiong Yi and Lu Yuhao, they called out, "Senior brother." Fifth Senior Sister. Or "Fifth Senior Sister". Since the seat was fixed, Joan also returned to her place, and then sat down peacefully, waiting for Mrs. Lu's arrival.
Not long after, Mrs. Lu came to the house, because the head of the family Lu Bin was not in the house recently, and only Mrs. Yang Suyong sat on the main seat. She was born with a pair of curved eyes and thin eyebrows, and she has always been generally oriented, and she has a very high voice in the Lu family.
After Yang Suyong sat down, he ordered people to serve meals one after another. The people who eat here are all the disciples of the head of the family, and the children of ordinary sects or miscellaneous cultivators rarely have the opportunity to enter the Yinyu Garden.
"Hao'er, what have you gained from this one-year experience?" Yang Suyong looked at her eldest son, who she hadn't seen for a long time, and asked.
"A-Niang, I have gained a lot. Cultivation, experience, etc. have grown. There are also some interesting things that happened on the way, so it is better to wait for the meal to tell you about it slowly. Lu Yuhao replied with a smile.
Hearing him answer like this, Yang Suyong couldn't help but chuckle: "Don't you know, Yan Shan has been thinking about you every day for the past year. β
The disciples in the audience chuckled.
"Auntie!" Lu Yanshan listened to her aunt's jokes, and said slightly: "I didn't either... Every day. β
I don't know which disciple smiled and said, "Yan Shan, Senior Brother went to look for you as soon as he came back, and he was determined to think about you every day during his training." β
Lu Yanshan was amused: "Of course, if my brother comes back and doesn't see me first, who else can I meet!" He also brought me a lot of good things, and I'll show them when I'm done eating! β
