Hearing this, Ji Yuexian couldn't help but smile bitterly. "I would like to say, but you don't know the old lady's temperament, how can I tell you about it. Send the moon bridge to your house The old lady herself is not agreeable, because she knows what you mean. It's just that the old lady's health is getting worse day by day, and with the news coming from Beijing, the dragon's body is also a little sick today, and although it has been cured, it is still not as good as before. ”

Speaking of this, Ji Yuexian sighed heavily. "I know that you are both smart people, so I have no intention of hiding these things. What you said that day was right, the Ji family looked like a beautiful person on the surface, but in fact it was struggling step by step, as if walking on thin ice. Not only Yueqiao, but also the other brothers I also deliberately called them all back to Jiang'an, so that they would not cause trouble in Shangjing. Zheng'an, I know your thoughts, but you have to help me no matter what, and at the moment, except for you and Huaishu, I will no longer rest assured that anyone else. ”

Regarding Ji Yuexian's request, Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu did not give a clear answer until they left.

Mrs. Ji already knew the answer from Ji Yuexian's disappointed eyes, but Mrs. Ji had long known Lu Zhengan's thoughts, and she was not as disappointed as Ji Yuexian.

Lu Zhengan's family is valued by the old lady, and Mama Zhang specially ordered it. Therefore, the Ji family's lunch at noon was extraordinarily rich, and there were many things on the table, and Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu had never seen them.

It's just that the two of them have something on their minds, and in the face of a table of delicacies from the mountains and seas, Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu don't have much appetite.

The old lady saw the two of them like this, and understood in her heart that Ji Yuexian's request still made the two of them feel embarrassed. He sighed helplessly in his heart and silently put down the chopsticks in his hand.

"Zheng'an, you just listen to what Yuexian said before, don't take it to heart. As long as you and Huaishu take care of Xingyi girl, I will be relieved. ”

Lu Zhengan and Song Huai didn't have much appetite for books, and when they saw Mrs. Ji put down the chopsticks in their hands, they also put them down.

Lu Zhengan looked at Mrs. Ji's cheeks, which had been much thinner than before, and nodded gently. "Thank you, old lady, spring has begun now, and the peach blossoms of Hualong Mountain will bloom in a while. If you have time, you can take someone to stay for a while. ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Ji smiled and nodded. Seeing that everyone had put their chopsticks in front of the table, he motioned for his subordinates to remove the dishes and chopsticks.

Lu Zhengan accompanied Mrs. Ji to gossip for a while, and when he saw that Lu Xingyi was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, and it would take more than an hour to drive home, he said goodbye to Mrs. Ji.

Mrs. Ji wanted to keep the family of three for a few days, but she also knew that Lu Zhengan would definitely not agree, so she had no choice but to give up.

Knowing that Lu Zheng'an's carriage was already waiting at the door of the mansion when he came, he personally sent people to the gate. After watching Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu's family of three get into the carriage, they turned around and prepared to go back.

However, at the moment when Mrs. Ji turned around, the carriage that Lu Zheng'an had already started suddenly stopped.

I saw Lu Zhengan jump out of the carriage under everyone's astonished eyes, walked quickly in front of Mrs. Ji, and said, "Old lady, on the 10th day of February, my family needs to borrow two people from you to replant a batch of peach saplings. You see, you can be convenient? ”

Mrs. Ji did not expect Lu Zhengan to agree, and after hearing his words, she hurriedly responded a few times. "Convenient, very convenient. I'll send it to you myself. If you don't do it well, let me beat and scold me, and never interfere! ”

Seeing Mrs. Ji's agreement, Lu Zheng'an looked deeply at Mrs. Ji's face for a moment before finally opening his mouth and instructing: "We are still counting on you to help us support our palms and eyes when we get married, so please take good care of your body and don't work too hard." ”

When Mrs. Ji heard Lu Zhengan's voice, her eyes immediately turned red. Holding Lu Zhengan's hand, he nodded his head heavily, and choked up: "Good, good!" With your words, I will strive to live to be 100 years old, and I want to see our Xingyi girls get married. ”

……

After coming out of Ji's house, Lu Zhengan hugged Lu Xingyi, who was already asleep, and looked at Song Huaishu beside him apologetically.

"Huaishu, do you blame me for going back on my word?"

Hearing this, Song Huaishu recalled Mrs. Ji's help and love for them, and shook his head with a smile. "I blame you for what you do, the old lady has been helping us a lot, and I have been thinking about how to repay her."

After finishing speaking, Song Huaishu recalled Ji Yueqiao and couldn't help frowning. "It's just that the little young master of the Ji family doesn't seem to be easy to discipline, if it's not good to discipline......"

Song Huaishu's later words were not spoken, but the meaning was self-evident.

Lu Zhengan sighed and stretched out his hand to hold the person around his own chest. "Even if you have already opened your mouth, it is useless to worry. When the old lady handed over the person to us, it was not only a question of whether to discipline or not, but more importantly, she wanted to leave a root for the Ji family. Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. You wake up so early in the morning, sleep on me for a while, and it will take you a while to get home. ”

Song Huaishu didn't feel sleepy, leaned on Lu Zhengan's shoulder and looked at Lu Xingyi, who was sleeping soundly, and couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth.

When Lu Zheng'an's family of three returned to Hualongshan, the time had just reached the end of Shen.

At this time, there was still some sunshine in the courtyard, and Song Lan and Lu Yang were sitting in the courtyard with the soles of their shoes. Hearing Lu Zheng'an's voice at the door, he knew that they had gone to Ji's house to visit relatives and had returned, so he hurriedly put down the dustpan in his hand and stood up from his chair.

"Guessing it's time for you to come back, how about it? Xingyi is still good all the way? ”

Lu Xingyi hadn't seen Song Lan's for a day, so he held two small hands for her to hug. After staying in Song Lan's arms, he hugged her neck and rubbed her face fiercely.

Holding Lu Xingyi's soft little body in his arms, Song Lanshi only felt that his heart was about to melt. Holding her around the yard and looking at the things unloaded from the carriage, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I know that you are going to visit relatives, but those who don't know think that you are going to buy goods." ”

Hearing this, Lu Yang on the side couldn't help laughing. "No, Mrs. Ji really has nothing to say about Zheng'an and Huaishu, looking at the big bags and small bags. Yo, it's not early, I should go back, I'll be here tomorrow when I'm free. ”

As he spoke, Lu Yang put the mille-feuille bottom in his hand that had not been stored into the dustpan. Raised her feet and walked to Lu Xingyi's side, shook her little hand, and then walked out.

Seeing this, Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu sent people to the door, and after watching Lu Yang's walk away, they turned around and went home.

The two of them packed up the things they brought back into the warehouse, but they didn't find Song Xiren, so they asked suspiciously, "Where is my father?" ”

"Go to the village and go down to the dragon with your Uncle Changgen, and the momentum is enough every day."

Seeing Song Lan's helpless face, Lu Zhengan comforted her with a smile and said, "Father is idle at home and boring, let him go if he wants to." Running up and down the mountain a few times is also good for his body. ”

Song Huaishu on the side echoed on the side: "Father is at home every day, and you still think he is wandering around under your nose." Now that he's found something, you don't think he's home. ”

Song Lan, who had been 'squeezed', glared angrily at Song Huaishu and Lu Zheng'an, and only after a while did he speak: "Okay, I'll just say a word about him, and you guys will do it one by one." If I say a few more words, won't I have to quarrel with me? ”

While speaking, Song Xiren walked into the courtyard with a smile behind his back, and saw that Song Huaishu and Lu Zhengan had returned, so he hurriedly asked, "Why don't you come back today?" Mrs. Ji: How's it going? Can the body still be tough? ”

After Song Xiren finished speaking, he saw Lu Xingyi raising his hand high in front of him, and hurriedly stepped forward to take the person into his arms. rubbed her neck with stubble, and the itchy Lu Xingyi giggled.

After watching the two grandparents make trouble for a while, Song Huaishu saw that the sun was setting in the west, and there was no warmth left, and he hurriedly beckoned a few people into the house.

After a few people entered the house, Song Lanshi clearly felt that the smiles on the faces of Song Huaishu and Lu Zhengan did not reach the bottom of their eyes, and they couldn't help but suspect that the two of them had been slighted in the Ji family.

However, thinking that the old lady of the Ji family cherished Lu Zhengan very much, and with her as the head of the family, Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu should not be neglected in the Ji family, and I was even more puzzled. After hesitating for a moment, Song Lan couldn't help but open his mouth.

"Look, you two don't seem to be very happy, what's wrong? But what happened? ”

Seeing that Song Lan's family was so keen, Lu Zhengan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Seeing that Song Xiren was holding Lu Xingyi and looking at him and Song Huaishu, Lu Zhengan hesitated for a moment and told the two elders about the old lady and Ji Yuexian's plans.

Seeing that the two of them were silent, Lu Zhengan sighed and said, "Actually, I also know in my heart that this matter should not be accepted. However, when I think of the old lady at such an old age and having to worry about the hearts of her children and grandchildren, I feel a little unbearable. ”

Song Lan and Song Xiren also felt that this matter was really tricky, but after thinking about it for a while, if they were Lu Zhengan, they really couldn't bear to refuse.

"You're doing the right thing, but it's not easy. No matter how mixed the children of the Ji family are, their identities are also there. It's better to have a charter in mind about how to behave. ”

Seeing that the two elders did not mean to blame themselves, Lu Zhengan nodded hurriedly. "Thank you father for reminding me, I can save this matter."

"Okay, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge. Wait until the Ji family sends people over, there is no need to worry about things that haven't happened yet. You two are tired from a day in the car, and I'll make you whatever you want to eat tonight. ”

Lu Zheng'an and Song Huaishu didn't eat much at noon, and when they heard Song Lanshi say this, they felt empty in their stomachs.

"If you're really hungry, just rest for your mother. Huai Shu and I made two cakes, cooked some rice porridge, and stir-fried two dishes. ”

With that, Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu got up and walked to the kitchen.

Looking at the backs of the two of them leaving, Song Lanshi touched Song Xiren's shoulder with her elbow and said, "I always feel that the old lady of the Ji family seems to have a really unusual attitude towards political security? ”

"How is it not ordinary?" Song Xiren was a little puzzled.

"I have said some things in the previous Huaishu, and I always feel that the old lady of the Ji family treats Zheng'an as the head of the family. But when I think about it again, the Ji family has such a big business, and it is not enough to find a person with a foreign surname to be in charge. ”

Chapter One Hundred and One

Although the Ji family is a troublesome matter, life should still be passed.

At the end of the fifth day, the family followed Song Xiren to the town's shop and set off a firecracker, and the Song Kee grocery store officially opened its doors for business.

However, just after the Spring Festival, most people have everything they need at home, and not many people can come out to buy things. So the family of five stayed in the shop for most of the hour, and when they saw that there was really no business, they took the car home.

After Song Xiren followed Lu Changgen to the village several times to watch people play chess, he became addicted. In addition to the rain can not go out, all day soaked in the old man pile at the head of the village, having fun.

When Song Lan saw that he was not at home all day, she would nagging him a few words. Later, he was persuaded several times by Song Huaishu and Lu Zheng'an, and when he was young, Song Xiren had been suffering and tired, and he did not enjoy life properly, so he went with him.

In this way, the days slowly arrived at the Shangyuan Festival.

Early in the morning, Lu Yang took half a pot of glutinous rice flour up the mountain. Seeing that Lu Zhengan was carrying water back from the back mountain, and that Song Huaishu and Lu Xingyi were still following him, Lu Yang hurriedly stopped entering the door.

"It's early in the morning, it's still so cold, what are you doing with Niuniu going to the back mountain? If the cool breeze blows and the wind chills it, it will be too late to regret it. ”

Hearing this, Song Huaishu raised Lu Xingyi's small hand and waved it to Lu Yang's, and said with a smile: "Xingyi saw Zheng'an carrying a bucket to the back mountain, so he had to follow. I carried her around for a while, not to the creek behind me. ”

As he spoke, Song Huaishu walked to Lu Yang's side with Lu Xingyi in his arms, saw the glutinous rice noodles in her basin, and asked curiously, "What is this aunt?" ”

Lu Yangshi stretched out his hand to tease Lu Xingyi, and replied with a smile: "Glutinous rice noodles, last time I heard your mother say that she would make Lantern Festival." Today isn't the Shangyuan Festival, I'm thinking about rolling some Lantern Festival and everyone will eat together. ”

While the two were talking, Lu Xingyi in Song Huaishu's arms had already heard the word 'eat', and the whole person suddenly came to his senses. His eyes were firmly fixed on the basin in Lu Yang's hand, and he kept struggling towards her.

Seeing this, Lu Zhengan couldn't help but smile and said: "You gluttonous girl, the glutinous rice noodles in grandma's pot are raw, and you can't eat them yet." ”

Although Lu Xingyi is young, he can still understand some words. However, as a foodie, and a foodie who is strictly controlled, he naturally does not believe what his father says. nestled in Song Huaishu's arms, and kept grinning and baring his millet teeth.

Hearing the voices of several people, Song Lanshi in the house walked out. Seeing Lu Yang's coming over with a basin, he knew that she was holding glutinous rice noodles, and couldn't help laughing: "You are really, our family has everything, what are you doing from the bottom of the mountain?" Besides, I don't have a lot to eat about it, so just get a few and taste it. ”

"How heavy this pot can be is a matter of walking a few steps. The old sister can be cleaned up, when will we start doing it? ”

Song Lan beckoned Lu Yang to hurry into the house, and said to Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu: "To eat Lantern Festival, you have to go with floating wine, and the floating wine at home has been eaten." Wait a minute, put Xingyi at home, and you can go to town and buy some back. ”

Today is the Shangyuan Festival, Lu Zhengan was thinking about taking Song Huaishu down the mountain for a walk, and when he heard Lu Yang's words, he nodded busily.

"Okay, it just so happens that there is a meeting today, and Huaishu and I may come back later. Wait a minute, Xingyi will be handed over to you and your aunt first, and we will pick up my father back by the way in the evening. ”

How could Song Lan not understand Lu Zhengan's thoughts, and let go happily with a wave of his big hand.

Lu Yang hugged Lu Xingyi, and watched Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu walk out of the courtyard holding hands, and their eyes were full of smiles. "Looking at the two of them, I don't know that I think they just got married."

Song Lan also glanced at the two of them, thinking of Lu Zhengan's thoughtfulness and care for Song Huaishu, and he was extremely satisfied with this son-in-law.

"Huaishu has been spoiled by me and Lao Song since he was a child, and it is Huaishu's blessing to be able to find Zheng'an who is so tolerant of him."

As she spoke, Song Lan remembered that Lu Yang had said that Lu Zhengting was going to bring his daughter-in-law and children back for the holiday, and hurriedly asked, "Eh, you said earlier that your family was going to bring your daughter-in-law and children back for the holiday, what's the matter?" Has the itinerary changed? ”

Referring to his son and daughter-in-law, Lu Yang waved his hand at each other. "Zheng Ting came back and left two days ago, saying that it was cold at home, and his daughter-in-law and grandson would not toss back and forth. Hey, let them go, I'll be a little less tired if I don't come back. ”

When the two were gossiping before, Song Lan heard Lu Yang talk about her son and daughter-in-law who were far away in Linzhou. Hearing her say this at this time, Song Lanshi didn't ask any more, put Lu Xingyi, who was holding the cloth tiger and gnawing happily, into the small cart, and the two began to make Lantern Festival.

……

The temple fair of the Shangyuan Festival was unexpectedly lively, Lu Zhengan and Song Huaishu bought a few catties of floating wine on the street and put it in the Song Ji grocery store, and began to wander around the street.

At this time, the shops along the street had already erected flagpoles to hang lanterns, because it was still early in the dark, and the lanterns prepared by the houses had not yet been hung. The two walked along the crowd for a while, and Lu Zhengan saw that Song Huaishu's face was tired, and he looked around and saw that there were still vacant seats in a stall for fried cold noodles, so he walked over with Song Huaishu. I asked the boss for two fried cold noodles, and the two found a table in the corner and sat down.

Since it is a meeting, it is naturally indispensable to make a big drama. However, the Liangfen stall is a little far away from the stage, and Lu Zhengan can't see anyone except for the sound of gongs and drums coming from the stage.

Lu Zhengan saw Song Huaishu's eyes looking in the direction of the stage from time to time, and couldn't help laughing: "Don't look at it, when we finish eating cold noodles and rest, I will also take you to listen to it." ”

"Xingyi is still at home, forget it. I don't understand much, so I'm just watching the fun. ”

Pushing the cold powder sent by the boss to Song Huaishu, Lu Zhengan pulled out a pair of chopsticks from the chopstick cage on the side. He wiped the head of his chopsticks with a handkerchief, and then handed it to Song Huaishu.

"Ever since you had a daughter, you've been tied up at home all day. It's rare to have some free time today, so it's okay to spend a little more time outside. Xingyi is also used to her mother and aunt, so it doesn't matter if we go back later. ”

Song Huaishu listened to Lu Zhengan's words, and couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart, and raised his eyes to look at Lu Zhengan. Seeing him smiling at himself, Song Huaishu only felt his heart skip a beat, and his earlobes immediately turned red.

Seeing him like this, Lu Zhengan couldn't help laughing. It wasn't until he watched Song Huaishu eat most of the cold noodles on the plate that he lowered his head and took a few bites of his own into his mouth. After taking the handkerchief and handing it to Song Huaishu to wipe his mouth, he got up and settled the account with the boss.

Today is the Shangyuan Festival, and the opera troupe specially performed a clever play with mandarin ducks. Because the two came a little late, it was just in time for the poor scholars Feng Tiancheng and Fang Qiaoying in the play, as well as the rich man Sun Dacai and Miss Qian's family to get married by mistake.

In the play, two couples were happy, the other was sad, and the people in the audience laughed.
