Chapter 9 doesn't make sense of what rules are
Shen Lansui looked at Lu Xingyue inexplicably, but Lu Xingyue withdrew his gaze and remained calm.
Maybe it's because the defense of men and women in ancient times was serious, and it was not good to show their wrists in public, right?
She didn't think much about it, and said to Lu Jingzhi with a smile: "Yes, I don't know who sent it, I like it very much." β
Lu Jingzhi showed a smug smile on his face.
Lu Mingchao suddenly said: "I remember that the little sister has a pair of similarities." β
As soon as these words came out, the eldest lady immediately looked at Lu Jingzhi, her eyebrows and eyes pressed slightly, but she didn't say anything.
Lu Jingzhi said, "It's almost the same, I sent it." β
"My little sister has a good eye." Shen Lansui could feel that she was different from the rest of the Lu family, and she had a very good impression of her.
"You two are still looking at each other." Lu Mingwan said rarely: "I didn't see you so enthusiastic before." β
Lu Jingzhi's face changed, and he subconsciously looked at Lu Xingyue.
Lu Mingchao also frowned.
The atmosphere at the table sank suddenly.
Shen Lansui wondered, why did everyone react like this when they mentioned the former lady?
"Eat without saying anything, and the rules are all learned in vain?" Rong Guogong picked up the chopsticks and said coldly: "Eat." β
Lu Mingwan pursed his lips and didn't say anything more.
Rong Guogong sandwiched the dishes first, and the others followed suit.
Lu Xingyue was speechless the whole time, as if whatever they said had nothing to do with him.
However, the few dishes in front of him didn't look very appetizing, and he basically didn't move.
Shen Lansui thought about it, picked up the small bowl on the side, filled it with some soup, and put it in front of him.
Lu Xingyue looked at her in surprise.
"These dishes are not very to Saburo's appetite, so let's drink some soup." Shen Lan said as if unintentionally.
Rong Guogong was stunned, "Unappetizing? How do you know? β
Shen Lansui was puzzled, "Doesn't my father know?" Saburo doesn't like sweetness, and he doesn't like tofu and fish. β
As soon as these words came out, Lu Xingyue and Rong Guogong glanced at each other.
Rong Guogong asked, "Is what she said true?" β
Lu Xingyue nodded.
"The third sister-in-law is really beautiful and careful, and she remembered the preferences of the third brother after only one day." Lu Jingzhi looked at the two ambiguously.
Shen Lansui lowered her head shyly.
Rong Guogong was silent for a moment, and raised his hand to change the fish in front of Lu Xingyue and the dish on the side.
This time, Lu Xingyue ate more obviously, and the corners of Shen Lansui's mouth hooked slightly.
For a while, there was only the subtle sound of the clashing of dishes and chopsticks on the dinner table.
Seeing that she was almost done, the eldest lady suddenly spoke, "Lan Sui and the third child are so affectionate, maybe the prince will be able to hold his grandson soon." β
Shen Lan was stunned, why did he get involved with the heirs again?
Lu Xingyue put down his chopsticks, wiped his lips with a handkerchief, raised his eyes to meet her gaze, and said lightly: "If the eldest lady is in a hurry, you might as well pay more attention to the eldest brother." β
Suddenly being named, Lu Mingchao raised his head and smiled helplessly, "I'm not in a hurry, it's good for a man to start a business and start a family." β
"The Ming Dynasty is on the rise, and it is inevitable that you can't take care of it when you marry a wife."
Rong Guogong's eyes were much gentler when he looked at Lu Mingchao, and Shen Lansui knew in his heart that he had high hopes for his eldest son, and it was no surprise that he should be the next head of the family.
"Yes, the Ming Dynasty is different from you." The eldest lady made a pun, and looked at Shen Lansui again as she spoke, "Speaking of which, Le Tao went to sue me this afternoon, saying that you suppressed them indiscriminately, but is there such a thing?" β
"Suppression? I don't know what the eldest lady means by suppression? Shen Lansui's face did not change and said: "It was they themselves who said that they wanted to pray for San Lang, I didn't agree at first, but they had to kneel, I couldn't resist their sincerity, so I agreed, how could I go back and sue the eldest lady?" β
She sighed mournfully, her eyebrows pressed slightly, and she looked a little aggrieved.
"The three of Le Tao were carefully selected by me to give to Xingyue, I know very well what their temperament is, if it is not true, they will never chew the root of their tongue behind their backs." The eldest lady said solemnly: "You are a dignified wife, jealous with the three concubines, and you are not afraid of people's jokes when you spread it?" β
"Isn't there anyone in the Bofu who teaches you the rules of being a wife?"
"The third brother and sister are concubines, and their mothers are aunts, so no one is really taught." Lu Mingwan laughed, and the malice in his eyes was undisguised.
Rong Guogong's eyebrows were furrowed, and his eyes looked at Shen Lansui with a faint sense of condemnation.
Shen Lansui put down the bowl, sat upright, and said without humility or arrogance: "Madame is afraid that it is a misunderstanding, it is the three of them who came uninvited, if it were not so, I would not take the initiative to find them, it was also their disrespectful words first, compare Mrs. Xian with me, I did not punish them, everything is in my eyes, if the eldest lady does not believe it, she can let Zhou Quan come in and confront her." β
"For the sake of the three concubines, the eldest lady questioned my wife in public, what are the rules?" Lu Xingyue's eyes were slightly cold.
"Lu Xingyue! Is that how you talk to your mother? Lu Mingwan said angrily.
Lu Xingyue didn't even look at him, and said: "It's not too much, it's disturbing the house, don't be a concubine like this." β
"You're going to sell them?" The eldest lady was furious, "I sent them to your side to help you spread the leaves, but now they have become mine, right?" Guogong, look at your good son! β
Rong Guogong said impatiently: "What is there to quarrel about this little thing? Xingyueβ"
"Father, I think San Lang is right, I just got married, and I have no grievances with them, so they framed me like this, how can there be peace in the future? What's more, you and the eldest lady support each other, and you have never had a concubine, which has become a good story in Yangdu, but San Lang accepted three concubines, isn't this your own bad rules? β
Shen Lansui shook her head, "Of course, they are the eldest lady's people, and it is normal for her to feel distressed, so it is better to return them to the eldest lady, and fulfill each other's master-servant feelings." β
"That's nice, it's not that you can't tolerate them?" The eldest lady smiled coldly, "San Lang's heirβ"
"San Lang is only one in twenty, and he is not in a hurry, as for the heir, he will make a concubine before he has a son-in-law, and the face of the Guogong Mansion will not be glorious at that time."
Every sentence she said was on the bottom line of Rong Guogong.
The eldest lady wanted to say something more, but he said in a deep voice: "Okay, just do as you say, Xingyue, you go back." β
Lu Xingyue gave Shen Lansui a look, and the two got up and left.
Lu Jingzhi followed, Lu Mingwan didn't want to leave, Rong Guogong shouted angrily: "Get out!" β
Lu Mingchao got up and dragged the person away.
"Brother, what are you doing? What if my father quarrels with my mother? You let go of meβ"
The voices of the two gradually faded away, and Rong Guogong dropped the porcelain bowl in his hand without warning.
There was a crisp sound of "pop", and the eldest lady's eyelids jumped.
She glared at him with red eyes, "Are you throwing a tantrum with me?" Just for the evil seed who turned his elbow outward? β
"After all these years, why are you still obsessed?" Rong Guogong was angry and helpless, "What is he sorry for you for so many years?" You don't like him and ignore him, anyway, sooner or later you have to break up, why make it so ugly every time? β
"I can't get by! He's a wild breed of kinship, and if it weren't for him, my third wouldn't be ......."
She covered her face and sobbed silently.
Rong Guogong couldn't, sighed, and after a stalemate for a long time, he still hugged her to comfort, "It's my mistake, don't cry, don't call them over for dinner in the future, you won't be happy." β
