Lord Quan teases Houmen's poisonous wife
Chapter 276
Chapter 276
Lu Xiuyuan was also helpless, turned his head and glanced over there, then turned around and said in a low voice, "Father, walls have ears, we still have to find an appropriate time and place to talk about this matter. Talking too much right now is not good for us brothers."
Only then did Lu Jiaping come to his senses, and quickly restrained his emotions, "Okay, okay, since that's the case, I'll let your aunt treat her well for a while."
Lu Xiuyuan smiled, "Thank you dad."
Lu Jiaping looked him up and down, and asked with concern: "I'm going to Beiyan, did my legs break out on the way? Is there any discomfort? If there is any abnormality, you must tell me as soon as possible, so I can find someone to help." look."
Lu Xiuyuan smiled, "Ah Bai knows medicine, so it doesn't need to be so troublesome. Besides, I have fully recovered. Although the scar on my leg can't be removed, it's not a big deal. As long as my legs can walk on the ground, I'm already very satisfied."
"Yes, yes, yes." Lu Jiaping laughed, and was indeed delighted that Lu Xiuyuan was able to recover, "I've been looking forward to your recovery for more than 20 years, and now your wish has finally come true, how about it, do you want to drink two more glasses with me later? "
"That's natural." Lu Xiuyuan still has a good drinker when he often goes out to socialize, besides, he just came back today, there is nothing important, everyone is happy, and it doesn't matter if he drinks two more glasses.
"Father, let's go over quickly, don't make Ah Bai feel left out."
Knowing that Yi Bai is Lu Qingwan's biological son, Lu Jiaping looked at him with softer and warmer eyes than before, but it is temporarily impossible to have any special feelings, after all, Yi Bai has not been in Lu Qingwan since he was a child. In Lu Jiaping's impression, Yi Bai is Beiyan's national teacher, born sick, cold and stern, and has an unpleasant temper, especially when Yi Bai stayed in Lu's house for a few months last time , seldom come out, let alone salute and greet their elders, Lu Jiaping privately feels that such a person is not polite, too aloof and arrogant, and his impression of Yi Bai is getting worse and worse.
And it is difficult to completely change the impression of a person in a short period of time, even if this is his own nephew, Lu Jiaping can at most talk to him a few more words, and put his tone in a better tone.
Lu Jiaxing knew his elder brother best, and when he heard that tone of voice, he couldn't help but look at Lu Jiaping. The other party seemed to be unaware, and he was still talking to Yi Bai in a low voice.
What surprised Lu Jiaxing even more was that Yi Bai seemed to be a lot more normal than last time, not to mention the rosy color on his face, even when talking to Lu Jiaping, he was no longer the same indifferent as before On the contrary, there is a faint layer of warmth added to his expression, although it is not much, but for those who have seen Yi Bai before, it is enough to startle the eyeballs.
Second Mrs. Lu naturally also noticed the subtlety of the atmosphere, but the two masters are here, she is not a woman who can interrupt, so she waited until everyone had finished talking before she spoke, "Brother, Brother Yuan, Mr. Bai, stay outside Standing, sit inside, sit inside quickly, have a sip of tea first, there is still a while before the table."
Lu Jiaping nodded, and asked Yi Bai politely.
Yi Bai responded casually, and followed Lu Xiuyuan into the front hall.
After sitting down, Lu Jiaping's eyes fell on Yi Bai from time to time, Yi Bai also noticed it, but just sat quietly and let others look at him, he probably figured out that his brother had already told Lu Jiaping about his life experience, Otherwise, it would have been a few months ago, and it was absolutely impossible for Lu Jiaping to talk to him with the soft attitude just now.
"Brother, why are you staring at him?" Lu Jiaxing kept frowning. Although this person is an outsider to the Lu family, the elder brother is not a child who has never seen the world. He has been in the business field for so many years. It's not so easy to lose your composure.
Lu Jiaping looked back and coughed in embarrassment, "I think Mr. Bai's complexion seems to be much better than a few months ago. Has the condition been relieved?"
"Yeah." Although he knew that these two were uncles, but Yi Bai was used to doing things his own way, and he suddenly had to accept these so-called relatives. He couldn't change for a while, and even the answer was a bit blunt, but he thought he was very cooperative. up.
Seeing the tangle between his brows and eyes, Lu Xiuyuan felt sorry for him, so he comforted him in a low voice: "Ah Bai, it's okay, you just came back, and it's really a little difficult to accept this kind of relative you have never met in a short period of time. Difficulty, it doesn't matter, take your time, you will get used to it after a lot of exposure."
Yi Bai nodded without any trace, and he doesn't want to be the same person he used to be, so let's learn to adapt slowly!
After about an hour of incense sticks, the Second Mrs. Lu came over in person to inform that the table was ready.
Lu Jiaping stood up first, glanced over Lu Xiuyuan and Yi Bai, and told Lu Xiuyuan, "Yuaner, take Mr. Bai to the dining room, I have something to do with your second uncle."
Lu Xiuyuan responded, and called Yi Bai, and the two brothers went one by one to the flower hall where the banquet was set up.
"Brother, do you need me?" Lu Jiaxing asked in a low voice after the two of them walked away.
Lu Jiaping sat down again, took a sip of tea, his eyes were misty, "Second Brother, do you know who this Young Master Bai is?"
"Isn't he Beiyan's national teacher?" Lu Jiaxing was a little puzzled, "There are many people in this world who have never met Yi Bai, but his name is very recognizable. At first glance, I knew it was Beiyan. A national teacher who is born with a sick body but has a brilliant talent."
"Not only that." Lu Jiaping sighed and said, "He is also the eldest sister's child."
Lu Jiaxing was so startled that he almost fell off his chair, "Brother, what are you kidding?"
"Yuan'er told me." Lu Jiaping said calmly: "I was also wondering what exactly happened. Yuan'er said that he would explain to us in detail when he said that he had time to wait. The reason why I left you is I just want to let you know first, since he is our nephew, we should pay attention to what we do and what we say in the future, and don't be as lukewarm as before."
Lu Jiaxing still couldn't believe it, "Why do I feel a little unreliable?"
Lu Jiaping glared at him, "Are you trying to say that Yuan'er is unreliable?"
"Of course not." Lu Jiaxing is very clear about the character of his elder nephew. It is impossible for him to joke about this kind of thing, but Lu Jiaxing can't figure it out. saved?Otherwise, why did she give birth to another child later.Or, this child is not Cheng Xiaodi's, but the eldest sister and another man?
Lu Jiaxing is the first and the second eldest. Although their family is a merchant, it is absolutely not allowed to have such a thing happen. It was hard for Jiaxing to imagine what kind of life the elder sister lived in her husband's house.
Recalling that year, Lu Jiaxing's face became completely serious, "So, Yuan'er should have found out the whereabouts of his mother in Beiyan."
"I think so too." Lu Jiaping said: "After we have dinner, go to the tea house, and I will ask Yuan'er what he has experienced in Beiyan in the past few months."
"Ah."
-
The table was very rich, with a lot of southern specialties. Mrs. Lu was always worried that Yi Bai would not get used to it, but she didn't expect that he seemed to like it very much, so she only chose southern specialties to eat.
The Second Mrs. Lu observed quietly, what kind of dishes Yi Bai ate, and which kind of dishes were picked up the most times, she wrote them down one by one, and ventilated the other side of the kitchen tomorrow.
As for the things that Lu Jiaxing and Lu Jiaping were worried about, the Second Mrs. Lu would not think about it at all. It was not because she was big-hearted, but because she had no idea about Lu Xiuyuan's real identity and Yi Bai's identity. It was even more impossible for the Second Mrs. Lu to know. up.
The two masters completely lied to her, she just felt that Lu Xiuyuan seemed to like to see this young master Bai very much, so he loved the house and Wu, besides, from the perspective of being a mother, the second wife of Lu loved Yi Bai very much.
When Yi Bai lived in Lu's residence before, Lu Yinheng basically never met him because he didn't go out often. Today, Yi Bai officially met with this big family in his true colors.Lu Yinheng felt that it was very fresh, so he specially said a few words with Yi Bai at the banquet.
Yi Bai smiled lightly and answered one by one.
He just didn't say anything, in fact, he was already surprised by the "enthusiasm" of the family. He remembered that when he was in the prime minister's mansion, he rarely went home for a meal, or his stepmother Xie was picking on him. Picking up eyes, or because he and Yi Zhuoming were angry, all in all, there was never a time when He He Lele finished the meal, and the Lu family's dining table was completely different from that of Beiyan's Prime Minister's Mansion, except During the meal, there was an invisible but palpable thing surging between the family members. It was very warm. What it was, Yi Bai couldn't say clearly, but he heard the second wife of Lu's question and Lu Yinheng's polite greeting At that time, Yi Bai felt very kind, because there was no purpose at all, it was a very pure kind of concern.
After dinner, it was getting late, so Lu Xiuyuan personally sent Yi Bai back to the yard where he used to live to rest. When he came back, he saw Lu Jiaping and Lu Jiaxing still sitting in the hall and had no intention of leaving. According to the intention of the two uncles, he closed the door smoothly, and then looked at the two with a smile, "Are the two uncles okay?"
Lu Jiaping snorted softly, "Ask knowingly."
Lu Xiuyuan laughed softly, walked to the side and sat down, without going around the bush, and got straight to the point, "I didn't lie to the two uncles, Abai is really my mother's child, and also my brother with the same father and mother. "
Lu Jiaxing opened his eyes wide and asked, "Did you find out where your mother is?"
"My mother died a long time ago." Lu Xiuyuan's expression gradually became depressed, "It's just that I found out what happened to her after she went to Beiyan."
Lu Jiaping choked for breath, "Yuan'er, are you serious?"
"Of course, the boy dare not lie to the two uncles."
Next, Lu Xiuyuan counted out Lu Qingwan's experience after leaving Luming Mountain, and once again opened up the life experiences of the two brothers. Lu Xiuyuan only felt that his heart was broken into several petals, and his whole body was in pain. strength.
Lu Jiaping fell into silence, his eyelashes drooped, his face flickered, he couldn't tell what he was thinking, while Lu Jiaxing pounded the table heavily, "It's unreasonable!"
I think back then, in order to let the elder sister get the favor from Ye Cheng, the three brothers moved a lot of money from the account without telling their parents to help Ye Cheng, in order to let him return to Beiyan as soon as possible to win the power The eldest sister took it, and the three brothers actually didn't expect the eldest sister to be a queen. After all, the merchant's background was there, so there was nothing to do. They just wanted to give her a decent title, so that she could be safe and sound. It's good to bring up the child as quickly as possible, but what about Ye Cheng?Not only was he ungrateful and ran away with the money, but he also turned back on what he said. The first thing he did after winning power was to marry Mrs. Zhu as his queen, and he completely forgot about his eldest sister.
That's all, and later, she actually used elder sister like that.
"Bastard!" Lu Jiaxing was so angry that he directly lifted the table, thinking that his elder sister had to compromise with that scum in order to keep Yuan'er, so he was so angry that he wanted to dig the Ye family's ancestor's grave right away.
"Second Uncle." Seeing that Lu Jiaxing wanted to get angry, Lu Xiuyuan hurriedly dissuaded him, "Calm down, this happened more than 20 years ago, no matter how angry you are now, you can't find someone to vent your anger on, I'm just discussing the matter That's all, the purpose is to let you know that Abai and I are blood brothers. He has been tortured by illness since he was a child, and his personality has become withdrawn. When he lived in our house before, if he offended the two uncles in any way , I also ask the two uncles to be more tolerant, and don’t argue with him, Abai has recovered now, and he will gradually change in the future.”
Lu Jiaping let out a long sigh, "What nonsense are you kid talking about? I didn't want to see him before. Firstly, I was concerned that his identity would implicate you and bring you unclear troubles. Secondly, I don't know him well. I heard that he was born with a disease, how could he know that this disease is... ah, what a crime!"
"It's really hateful, that bastard Ye Cheng died too early." Lu Jiaxing was full of anger, "Otherwise, if he is still alive, with the current financial resources of the Lu family, I dare not say that he can be killed, but let Bei Yan It is still possible to paralyze a large commercial firm, so let him taste the feeling that life is worse than death."
Lu Xiuyuan also hated it, but that scum died early, even if he wanted to flog the corpse, what he took out would only be a skeleton, and he would not relieve his hatred at all.
"But fortunately, I joined forces with Abai to bring down Empress Dowager Zhu and Emperor Xuanzong, which can be regarded as revenge for myself back then."
Of course Lu Xiuyuan was embarrassed to say that Abai hired a beggar to insult Queen Mother Zhu in front of the two uncles, but he just gave a general overview, but the two were still very relieved to hear it, especially when they heard that Queen Mother Zhu finally knelt in front of Lu Qingwan's spirit. After a hundred bangs, Lu Jiaxing immediately applauded, "Well done!"
Lu Xiuyuan smiled, "She deserves to pay for her life, but both Abai and I felt that killing her would be too cheap for her, so we tried our best to keep her alive, unable to speak or walk, and was imprisoned in Leng Gong, for her, life is worse than death."
Lu Jiaping's eyes lit up, and then he looked at Lu Xiuyuan with a look of extreme admiration, "As expected of my Lu family man, this wrist, this courage, hahaha, not bad, although there is no way to smash that bastard Come out to avenge, but it is really not easy for Empress Dowager Zhu to fall into such a situation, Yuaner, Uncle really saw you right."
Lu Xiuyuan smiled, "Uncle is too famous."
-
Bai picked up such a big nephew, Lu Jiaping was very happy, and asked Mrs. Lu to stuff things into Yi Bai's yard the next day, changing everything from decorations to daily expenses, but not blindly. They changed after asking Lu Xiuyuan and Yi Bai's preferences, and they were all of the highest quality.
As for Yi Bai, he directly said that he was the child of his sister-in-law Lu Qingwan, whose surname was Bai.
There are quite a few people who have contacts with the Lu family, but no one knows where Lu Qingwan married, but no one will follow up and ask.
Therefore, Yi Bai and Lu Xiuyuan became "cousins".
Yi Bai sat in his small courtyard, watching the servants come in and out to arrange the layout for him, he didn't say a word, and even looked a little dazed.
"Ah Bai, what's the matter?" Lu Xiuyuan came in from the moon gate, and seeing Yi Bai in a daze, he couldn't help asking.
"It's nothing." Yi Bai turned around, looked at Lu Xiuyuan's tender eyes, and slightly raised his lips, "I just feel that I haven't been so lively around me for a long time."
"It will be more lively in the future." Lu Xiuyuan sat down next to him, and the Second Mrs. Lu, who was directing the servants to place things, came over to greet the two of them with a smile.
Lu Xiuyuan called out naturally, "Auntie."
"Brother Yuan, you went to Beiyan this time, did you see a lot of things?" Second Mrs. Lu asked with a smile, her rolling eyes seemed to be thinking about something.
Lu Xiuyuan just ignored, nodded, "Indeed, I have seen a lot."
Second Mrs. Lu changed the subject again, "What about your legs?"
"It's all right now, I'm worried about Auntie Lao."
The Second Mrs. Lu breathed a sigh of relief, and finally got to the point, "Shortly after you left, the news of your recovery spread. I'm afraid you don't know it yet. Now I have become the son-in-law of Shuntian Mansion. Every time I go out, I always A few wives and wives inquired with me, asking where you had been, and I said that I was out to discuss business, and they begged me, saying that if you come back, you must set up a few tables for them to come and enjoy themselves."
Lu Xiuyuan couldn't understand why, Auntie was euphemistically telling him about marriage proposals, and she didn't refute, "Auntie thinks it's good, so let's do it, I have no objection."
Mrs. Lu's eyes moved slightly. She couldn't guess what this elder nephew was thinking, but she understood his temperament. It wasn't that he didn't get close to women in the past, but that he couldn't get close to women. Now he can finally walk around the ground. There are quite a few matchmakers she got through, but Mrs. Lu always finds a few random ones and dismisses them every time, leaving no hope for anyone. Although she is an elder, she is not Brother Yuan's relative after all. Father and mother, it is not appropriate to decide the marriage affairs for him privately, after all, if life is good in the future, everyone will be happy, if life is not good, she will become a sinner, so after much deliberation, I still have to have a fight with the right master call.
Lu Xiuyuan's reaction surprised the Second Mrs. Lu. Based on her understanding of this eldest nephew, no matter what happened, she had to pass her own eyes, right?Why does it sound like a very indifferent look, isn't he going to ask what the other girl is like?
This realization made Mrs. Lu feel puzzled, and asked again: "Brother Yuan, what kind of girl do you like, you might as well tell me, there are so many girls waiting to be married in the capital, Auntie can always find you a similar one."
Lu Xiuyuan curled his lips, "Auntie doesn't have to worry about me, if you think it's okay, then it's okay."
Mrs. Lu was even more puzzled, "Don't you have any demands?"
Lu Xiuyuan thought for a while, "Be nice and obedient!" He doesn't like girls who are too noisy, although these girls in the capital are all locked in the inner house and don't leave the second door. They are all quiet, but they are not uniform. There are only a few who are out of line. After all, they are going to get married and live a life, and those who are too noisy will not do.
Second Mrs. Lu can't laugh or cry, other people's family chooses a daughter-in-law who has to look upright, well-mannered, and have a good reputation. In addition, there are such and such requirements. Her eldest nephew is good. She only wants a quiet and well-behaved one. Such unconditional conditions If it gets out, I don't know how many families will fight for it.
The heir of the richest man's family, doesn't he know that his worth will skyrocket after he recovers?With so many girls to choose from, shouldn't one be unique?
The Second Mrs. Lu remembered that she saw Qin Shan at the wedding banquet when the Duke's Mansion hosted the full moon wine. She looked upright and had a quiet temperament. The official's family is a wealthy family, and it is even more impossible for Prime Minister Qin to marry his daughter into a merchant, so he can only reluctantly cut off this candidate.
If Lu Xiuyuan knew what the second wife of Lu was thinking, he would definitely refuse without saying a word. Who is Qin Shan?Su Yan's niece married Qin Shan, so he would have to call Su Yan uncle -- that's fine if he failed emotionally, if he failed again in marriage and called his rival uncle, he would lose face.
In fact, having no conditions is the most difficult condition, because he is not sure whether the girl he chooses based on his own will will satisfy him.
The Second Mrs. Lu already had a few candidates, but after hearing what Lu Xiuyuan said, she hesitated again. She had no idea after all, so she took some free time to go to Dongyang Houfu.
Fan Shi probably guessed why his younger sister came here, and turned away all the waiters before saying: "Is it because of your brother Yuan's marriage?"
The Second Mrs. Lu nodded, "Exactly. You said this child, I asked him what he likes, and he didn't ask for anything, he just said he wanted a quiet and well-behaved one. If he wanted to be quiet and well-behaved, whose girl would not Quiet and not well-behaved? That’s why I’m worried. I originally had a few of my favorites, but after what he said, I didn’t dare to make up my mind casually, so I came here to ask my sister for advice. My sister is well-informed. You should have an idea better than me, you give me the palm of your hand, what kind of girl is suitable for Brother Yuan?"
Fan paused while drinking tea, "I thought you were sure, but it turned out that I was the one who made the decision?"
"I'm so anxious that I can't sleep all night." Mrs. Lu frowned, "The two masters don't care about the affairs of the back house, and I have no choice. If even my sister can't make up her mind, I have no choice but to go I went to the Duke's Mansion, Wei girl has always been a smart girl, her eyesight is naturally impeccable, if she thinks it is feasible, she will probably be a perfect match with Brother Yuan."
Not to mention, if Yun Chuwei really shows up, no matter who he chooses, Lu Xiuyuan will definitely use all his energy to treat him well, even if he has no feelings in his heart, at least he has to give Zu Yunchuwei face.It's just that it's too late for Fan's precious daughter now, so it's impossible for her to come forward to worry about such things. It's good to know that life will be difficult in the future, but people will take their grievances on her. Bite her, thinking that her daughter might take the blame for this, Fan refused to obey, and glared at Mrs. Lu, "Don't embarrass the child."
The second wife of Lu just said casually, how can she really go to the younger generation for advice, if it gets out, it will be terrible, "My good sister, don't be devious, give me an idea, how is this marriage going?" Certainly?"
Fan's eyes narrowed, "The key is, do you want to marry a colleague or marry an official girl?"
"The elder brother is not specific, but I once heard him say that the most important thing is brother Yuan's wishes. As for marriage or something, with the status of the Lu family, there is no need to marry anyone."
This tone is really arrogant, but Fan thinks it is very pleasant to listen to, because it can be seen that Mr. Lu really loves this child Lu Xiuyuan. After so many years, he can finally walk on the ground, so he must find someone who suits him. of it?
"By the way, sister, are there any unmarried girls in your family?" The Second Mrs. Lu lowered her voice, and if there were, just arrange for ready-made ones.
When Fan heard this, her face was a little ugly, "Don't make up their minds, it's not because I don't want to, but in my heart, I don't think any of them are worthy of your brother Yuan." Besides, Yun Xueyao's head The hair on her head has only grown so much, but don’t be disgusting in the past. As for the cousin girl Qiu Xia, she has already been engaged, and she will be able to give it away after a month or two. In the end, there is only one Yun Qilan.
What kind of person is Yun Qilan? Thinking about it, after this period of turmoil, most of the people in the capital, even if they haven't seen her, have heard of her bad reputation. Such a girl who doesn't pay attention to self-cultivation, why bother marrying her and ruining her life? People, it's better to stay in the house honestly, in the future, if someone's elder brother really can't marry, he may just ask her regardless of those things, or maybe, it will be like that in this life, don't expect anything extravagantly.
Fan's words were not deliberately concealed, so it didn't take long for Yun Qilan to hear them, and she hated her teeth itchingly, "Auntie thinks that I am not good enough for Lu Xiuyuan?"
The personal nurse and wet nurse both stood aside and kept silent.
"The Lu family is just a merchant, and no matter how poor my father is, he is still a fifth-rank official. It is a blessing they have cultivated in their lives for a merchant to marry an official daughter. How dare they say that I am not worthy? Marry her and see!"
The personal nurse is a little speechless, what are you making a fuss about, girl?Isn't there enough trouble with the Cao family these days?After finally calming down, shouldn't he take advantage of this opportunity to cultivate his reputation and make up for all the previous losses?The eldest lady is right. You are just not good enough for the young master of the Lu family. Although he is a bit older, his appearance is one in a million. In addition, he is a normal person who can walk on the ground now. I don’t know how tall he is. A big family is waiting to get married, just a girl with your family background?How dare you dislike him as a business owner, maybe he won't even bother to give you a handout!
It's true that the Lu family is a merchant, but because they have a side concubine and are the richest man, even if many people often say that the merchant's status is low, there is a lot of jealousy in it. Well, in fact, I'm afraid it's too late to flatter.
The more Mammy looked at Yun Qilan, the more she felt that this girl had shallow eyelids and was not good enough for the public. Before that, the third wife tried every means to send her to Yingmei Nunnery to learn from the second girl, but the second girl "practiced" a lot. When she came back in [-], she married the number one scholar as a concubine. Although the fifth girl was only a concubine, she was still a bit taller than the second girl. She obviously had so many opportunities to fly to the top of the branch, but she still But if you put yourself to death, this time you will get a bad reputation, and if others don't dislike you, it will be considered as a face to you, and it's your turn to pick on the young master of the richest family?The face is really big.
"Nurse, help me go to the embroidery workshop to order some fashionable clothes." With her chest straightened out, Yun Qilan's self-confidence came from nowhere, and she seemed to have the confidence to speak at this moment.
The nanny said: "The girl still has several clothes that she hasn't worn!"
"I don't like those." Yun Qilan frowned. They were all made of middle-grade materials, so she couldn't wear them out. Every time her aunt went out to a banquet, she wanted to go with her, but the first thing she thought about was that she couldn't afford it. Clothes and accessories, afraid of being looked down upon when going out.
It is different now, she wants to use her beauty and strength to prove that she is not inferior in any way, how can she be as shabby as before.
Mammy still hesitated, "Girl, Sanfang's life is very tight, and I'm afraid I won't be able to spend so much money to cut clothes for you."
Yun Qilan became furious when she heard this, "What, no money again?"
Mammy sighed, and said to herself that it wasn't you who made the trouble, if you didn't kill that maid, spoil her reputation, and then make a big fuss with Cao's family shamelessly, the third wife would get a lot of money Take it out and get some to wipe your ass?Now he is blaming other people instead, he doesn't know how to restrain himself and reflect on himself, if he continues to do this, he will be no different from the Erfang who lost all his hair.
The third house was born from a concubine, and its share is not as good as that of the first two. If there is no subsidy from the master, how can the little share from the public be enough to spend? Come on, where can it relax.
Yun Qilan bit her lip, and went straight to Ding's yard to find someone. Ding was talking to the mothers in charge, when she saw her daughter coming in, she waved them away.
"Who is this daring to make our sister Lan unhappy?" The corners of Ding's eyes flew up, and he watched her angrily walking over.
Yun Qilan lowered her face, "Mother, is our family that poor? I just wanted to make some clothes, but my mother told me that I couldn't afford it. What do you think is this?"
Mrs. Ding brushed her hair, and didn't seem to take the words to heart, "How can I remember that I just made clothes for changing seasons, and you don't seem to be wearing much, and you don't want to go out to meet anyone, why do you have to yell now? To make clothes?"
Yun Qilan was a little guilty, but quickly showed her previous confidence, "Even if I don't go out, I'm still a lady of the official family, I can't even take out some clothes that are waiting for materials. People joke?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Ding sneered, "Now that you know that you are a lady from the official family, you need to show some face. When you bit the Cao family not to make a big noise a few days ago, why didn't you think about it? The people of Dongyang Hou Mansion lost the face of Dongyang Hou Mansion?"
"I..." Yun Qilan was at a loss for words. In fact, she also regretted this matter, but she really couldn't swallow that breath at the time, so she had to vent her anger and make up for it so that she could feel more balanced in her heart. On the contrary, Nao smeared his reputation more and more, so he could barely suppress it after a few months of silence, otherwise he would have been drowned by spitting stars if he was still like a few months ago.
"Mother." It's time like this, it's impossible to be soft, Yun Qilan held Ding's arm affectionately, but acted coquettishly, "Daughter knows it's wrong."
Ding didn't believe her evil, "What kind of moth are you trying to do?"
Yun Qilan pursed her lips, "Daughter has been heartbroken and aggrieved by the Cao family's affairs these days, so you can take it as a comfort to me, and go to my aunt's place to get some horses of high-quality material to make for me." Get dressed!"
Ding's face darkened, "Yun Qilan, do you know what you're talking about?" Everyone said that Mo Ruomu knew her daughter, but Ding couldn't tell that Yun Qilan probably wanted to be a demon again. Looking at this, I'm afraid it was because of man.
What happened to the Cao family before made their reputation black and stinky, and it has only subsided for a few days, and they want to continue dancing again?
Yun Qilan was terrified by Ding's cold stare, "Mother, why are you so fierce?"
Ding didn't hate her, but hated her for being uncarable. Before sending her to Yingmei Temple, she thought that she could learn a few tricks from Yun Xirong and become smarter. She never thought that when she came back, she would be smarter Yes, but they are all clever. She is having fun jumping around by herself, but in the eyes of others, she is being stupid.
Ding has always felt that as a daughter, no matter how bad her family background is, if you improve your self-cultivation first, you can stand in the crowd and shine without using your identity. As for where will Gao marry, but what about Yun Qilan?Although she is a concubine's daughter, she has assumed the title of "concubine's daughter" anyway, but she doesn't know arrogance and self-respect at all. Feeling that I have made money, and continuing to put myself aloof, it is simply a mental illness.
Ding gritted her teeth, hating that iron cannot be made into steel, "Whatever material you want, if you have the face, you can go ask your aunt, I won't go."
When Yun Chuwei's pair of twin sticks were born, the three of them pretended to be dead and ignored them. They didn't even send a small padded jacket over. Not lightly venting his anger on Fan's head, that's why he chose to ignore it, but after realizing Fan's relationship with the third room, Ding woke up suddenly, and took advantage of the full moon banquet at Yunchuwei's house to quickly send the replacement It's a pity that Fan only accepts gifts and doesn't appreciate it. He still has that lukewarm attitude, and he is still struggling now. How can Ding have the face to ask Fan? There is a fixed share of materials, and Sanfang has received the fabrics for this season long ago. Now even if she goes to talk about it, what's the use of it?
Yun Qilan snorted angrily: "Just go, I don't believe that an elder like her can embarrass a little girl like me!"
(End of this chapter)
Lu Xiuyuan was also helpless, turned his head and glanced over there, then turned around and said in a low voice, "Father, walls have ears, we still have to find an appropriate time and place to talk about this matter. Talking too much right now is not good for us brothers."
Only then did Lu Jiaping come to his senses, and quickly restrained his emotions, "Okay, okay, since that's the case, I'll let your aunt treat her well for a while."
Lu Xiuyuan smiled, "Thank you dad."
Lu Jiaping looked him up and down, and asked with concern: "I'm going to Beiyan, did my legs break out on the way? Is there any discomfort? If there is any abnormality, you must tell me as soon as possible, so I can find someone to help." look."
Lu Xiuyuan smiled, "Ah Bai knows medicine, so it doesn't need to be so troublesome. Besides, I have fully recovered. Although the scar on my leg can't be removed, it's not a big deal. As long as my legs can walk on the ground, I'm already very satisfied."
"Yes, yes, yes." Lu Jiaping laughed, and was indeed delighted that Lu Xiuyuan was able to recover, "I've been looking forward to your recovery for more than 20 years, and now your wish has finally come true, how about it, do you want to drink two more glasses with me later? "
"That's natural." Lu Xiuyuan still has a good drinker when he often goes out to socialize, besides, he just came back today, there is nothing important, everyone is happy, and it doesn't matter if he drinks two more glasses.
"Father, let's go over quickly, don't make Ah Bai feel left out."
Knowing that Yi Bai is Lu Qingwan's biological son, Lu Jiaping looked at him with softer and warmer eyes than before, but it is temporarily impossible to have any special feelings, after all, Yi Bai has not been in Lu Qingwan since he was a child. In Lu Jiaping's impression, Yi Bai is Beiyan's national teacher, born sick, cold and stern, and has an unpleasant temper, especially when Yi Bai stayed in Lu's house for a few months last time , seldom come out, let alone salute and greet their elders, Lu Jiaping privately feels that such a person is not polite, too aloof and arrogant, and his impression of Yi Bai is getting worse and worse.
And it is difficult to completely change the impression of a person in a short period of time, even if this is his own nephew, Lu Jiaping can at most talk to him a few more words, and put his tone in a better tone.
Lu Jiaxing knew his elder brother best, and when he heard that tone of voice, he couldn't help but look at Lu Jiaping. The other party seemed to be unaware, and he was still talking to Yi Bai in a low voice.
What surprised Lu Jiaxing even more was that Yi Bai seemed to be a lot more normal than last time, not to mention the rosy color on his face, even when talking to Lu Jiaping, he was no longer the same indifferent as before On the contrary, there is a faint layer of warmth added to his expression, although it is not much, but for those who have seen Yi Bai before, it is enough to startle the eyeballs.
Second Mrs. Lu naturally also noticed the subtlety of the atmosphere, but the two masters are here, she is not a woman who can interrupt, so she waited until everyone had finished talking before she spoke, "Brother, Brother Yuan, Mr. Bai, stay outside Standing, sit inside, sit inside quickly, have a sip of tea first, there is still a while before the table."
Lu Jiaping nodded, and asked Yi Bai politely.
Yi Bai responded casually, and followed Lu Xiuyuan into the front hall.
After sitting down, Lu Jiaping's eyes fell on Yi Bai from time to time, Yi Bai also noticed it, but just sat quietly and let others look at him, he probably figured out that his brother had already told Lu Jiaping about his life experience, Otherwise, it would have been a few months ago, and it was absolutely impossible for Lu Jiaping to talk to him with the soft attitude just now.
"Brother, why are you staring at him?" Lu Jiaxing kept frowning. Although this person is an outsider to the Lu family, the elder brother is not a child who has never seen the world. He has been in the business field for so many years. It's not so easy to lose your composure.
Lu Jiaping looked back and coughed in embarrassment, "I think Mr. Bai's complexion seems to be much better than a few months ago. Has the condition been relieved?"
"Yeah." Although he knew that these two were uncles, but Yi Bai was used to doing things his own way, and he suddenly had to accept these so-called relatives. He couldn't change for a while, and even the answer was a bit blunt, but he thought he was very cooperative. up.
Seeing the tangle between his brows and eyes, Lu Xiuyuan felt sorry for him, so he comforted him in a low voice: "Ah Bai, it's okay, you just came back, and it's really a little difficult to accept this kind of relative you have never met in a short period of time. Difficulty, it doesn't matter, take your time, you will get used to it after a lot of exposure."
Yi Bai nodded without any trace, and he doesn't want to be the same person he used to be, so let's learn to adapt slowly!
After about an hour of incense sticks, the Second Mrs. Lu came over in person to inform that the table was ready.
Lu Jiaping stood up first, glanced over Lu Xiuyuan and Yi Bai, and told Lu Xiuyuan, "Yuaner, take Mr. Bai to the dining room, I have something to do with your second uncle."
Lu Xiuyuan responded, and called Yi Bai, and the two brothers went one by one to the flower hall where the banquet was set up.
"Brother, do you need me?" Lu Jiaxing asked in a low voice after the two of them walked away.
Lu Jiaping sat down again, took a sip of tea, his eyes were misty, "Second Brother, do you know who this Young Master Bai is?"
"Isn't he Beiyan's national teacher?" Lu Jiaxing was a little puzzled, "There are many people in this world who have never met Yi Bai, but his name is very recognizable. At first glance, I knew it was Beiyan. A national teacher who is born with a sick body but has a brilliant talent."
"Not only that." Lu Jiaping sighed and said, "He is also the eldest sister's child."
Lu Jiaxing was so startled that he almost fell off his chair, "Brother, what are you kidding?"
"Yuan'er told me." Lu Jiaping said calmly: "I was also wondering what exactly happened. Yuan'er said that he would explain to us in detail when he said that he had time to wait. The reason why I left you is I just want to let you know first, since he is our nephew, we should pay attention to what we do and what we say in the future, and don't be as lukewarm as before."
Lu Jiaxing still couldn't believe it, "Why do I feel a little unreliable?"
Lu Jiaping glared at him, "Are you trying to say that Yuan'er is unreliable?"
"Of course not." Lu Jiaxing is very clear about the character of his elder nephew. It is impossible for him to joke about this kind of thing, but Lu Jiaxing can't figure it out. saved?Otherwise, why did she give birth to another child later.Or, this child is not Cheng Xiaodi's, but the eldest sister and another man?
Lu Jiaxing is the first and the second eldest. Although their family is a merchant, it is absolutely not allowed to have such a thing happen. It was hard for Jiaxing to imagine what kind of life the elder sister lived in her husband's house.
Recalling that year, Lu Jiaxing's face became completely serious, "So, Yuan'er should have found out the whereabouts of his mother in Beiyan."
"I think so too." Lu Jiaping said: "After we have dinner, go to the tea house, and I will ask Yuan'er what he has experienced in Beiyan in the past few months."
"Ah."
-
The table was very rich, with a lot of southern specialties. Mrs. Lu was always worried that Yi Bai would not get used to it, but she didn't expect that he seemed to like it very much, so she only chose southern specialties to eat.
The Second Mrs. Lu observed quietly, what kind of dishes Yi Bai ate, and which kind of dishes were picked up the most times, she wrote them down one by one, and ventilated the other side of the kitchen tomorrow.
As for the things that Lu Jiaxing and Lu Jiaping were worried about, the Second Mrs. Lu would not think about it at all. It was not because she was big-hearted, but because she had no idea about Lu Xiuyuan's real identity and Yi Bai's identity. It was even more impossible for the Second Mrs. Lu to know. up.
The two masters completely lied to her, she just felt that Lu Xiuyuan seemed to like to see this young master Bai very much, so he loved the house and Wu, besides, from the perspective of being a mother, the second wife of Lu loved Yi Bai very much.
When Yi Bai lived in Lu's residence before, Lu Yinheng basically never met him because he didn't go out often. Today, Yi Bai officially met with this big family in his true colors.Lu Yinheng felt that it was very fresh, so he specially said a few words with Yi Bai at the banquet.
Yi Bai smiled lightly and answered one by one.
He just didn't say anything, in fact, he was already surprised by the "enthusiasm" of the family. He remembered that when he was in the prime minister's mansion, he rarely went home for a meal, or his stepmother Xie was picking on him. Picking up eyes, or because he and Yi Zhuoming were angry, all in all, there was never a time when He He Lele finished the meal, and the Lu family's dining table was completely different from that of Beiyan's Prime Minister's Mansion, except During the meal, there was an invisible but palpable thing surging between the family members. It was very warm. What it was, Yi Bai couldn't say clearly, but he heard the second wife of Lu's question and Lu Yinheng's polite greeting At that time, Yi Bai felt very kind, because there was no purpose at all, it was a very pure kind of concern.
After dinner, it was getting late, so Lu Xiuyuan personally sent Yi Bai back to the yard where he used to live to rest. When he came back, he saw Lu Jiaping and Lu Jiaxing still sitting in the hall and had no intention of leaving. According to the intention of the two uncles, he closed the door smoothly, and then looked at the two with a smile, "Are the two uncles okay?"
Lu Jiaping snorted softly, "Ask knowingly."
Lu Xiuyuan laughed softly, walked to the side and sat down, without going around the bush, and got straight to the point, "I didn't lie to the two uncles, Abai is really my mother's child, and also my brother with the same father and mother. "
Lu Jiaxing opened his eyes wide and asked, "Did you find out where your mother is?"
"My mother died a long time ago." Lu Xiuyuan's expression gradually became depressed, "It's just that I found out what happened to her after she went to Beiyan."
Lu Jiaping choked for breath, "Yuan'er, are you serious?"
"Of course, the boy dare not lie to the two uncles."
Next, Lu Xiuyuan counted out Lu Qingwan's experience after leaving Luming Mountain, and once again opened up the life experiences of the two brothers. Lu Xiuyuan only felt that his heart was broken into several petals, and his whole body was in pain. strength.
Lu Jiaping fell into silence, his eyelashes drooped, his face flickered, he couldn't tell what he was thinking, while Lu Jiaxing pounded the table heavily, "It's unreasonable!"
I think back then, in order to let the elder sister get the favor from Ye Cheng, the three brothers moved a lot of money from the account without telling their parents to help Ye Cheng, in order to let him return to Beiyan as soon as possible to win the power The eldest sister took it, and the three brothers actually didn't expect the eldest sister to be a queen. After all, the merchant's background was there, so there was nothing to do. They just wanted to give her a decent title, so that she could be safe and sound. It's good to bring up the child as quickly as possible, but what about Ye Cheng?Not only was he ungrateful and ran away with the money, but he also turned back on what he said. The first thing he did after winning power was to marry Mrs. Zhu as his queen, and he completely forgot about his eldest sister.
That's all, and later, she actually used elder sister like that.
"Bastard!" Lu Jiaxing was so angry that he directly lifted the table, thinking that his elder sister had to compromise with that scum in order to keep Yuan'er, so he was so angry that he wanted to dig the Ye family's ancestor's grave right away.
"Second Uncle." Seeing that Lu Jiaxing wanted to get angry, Lu Xiuyuan hurriedly dissuaded him, "Calm down, this happened more than 20 years ago, no matter how angry you are now, you can't find someone to vent your anger on, I'm just discussing the matter That's all, the purpose is to let you know that Abai and I are blood brothers. He has been tortured by illness since he was a child, and his personality has become withdrawn. When he lived in our house before, if he offended the two uncles in any way , I also ask the two uncles to be more tolerant, and don’t argue with him, Abai has recovered now, and he will gradually change in the future.”
Lu Jiaping let out a long sigh, "What nonsense are you kid talking about? I didn't want to see him before. Firstly, I was concerned that his identity would implicate you and bring you unclear troubles. Secondly, I don't know him well. I heard that he was born with a disease, how could he know that this disease is... ah, what a crime!"
"It's really hateful, that bastard Ye Cheng died too early." Lu Jiaxing was full of anger, "Otherwise, if he is still alive, with the current financial resources of the Lu family, I dare not say that he can be killed, but let Bei Yan It is still possible to paralyze a large commercial firm, so let him taste the feeling that life is worse than death."
Lu Xiuyuan also hated it, but that scum died early, even if he wanted to flog the corpse, what he took out would only be a skeleton, and he would not relieve his hatred at all.
"But fortunately, I joined forces with Abai to bring down Empress Dowager Zhu and Emperor Xuanzong, which can be regarded as revenge for myself back then."
Of course Lu Xiuyuan was embarrassed to say that Abai hired a beggar to insult Queen Mother Zhu in front of the two uncles, but he just gave a general overview, but the two were still very relieved to hear it, especially when they heard that Queen Mother Zhu finally knelt in front of Lu Qingwan's spirit. After a hundred bangs, Lu Jiaxing immediately applauded, "Well done!"
Lu Xiuyuan smiled, "She deserves to pay for her life, but both Abai and I felt that killing her would be too cheap for her, so we tried our best to keep her alive, unable to speak or walk, and was imprisoned in Leng Gong, for her, life is worse than death."
Lu Jiaping's eyes lit up, and then he looked at Lu Xiuyuan with a look of extreme admiration, "As expected of my Lu family man, this wrist, this courage, hahaha, not bad, although there is no way to smash that bastard Come out to avenge, but it is really not easy for Empress Dowager Zhu to fall into such a situation, Yuaner, Uncle really saw you right."
Lu Xiuyuan smiled, "Uncle is too famous."
-
Bai picked up such a big nephew, Lu Jiaping was very happy, and asked Mrs. Lu to stuff things into Yi Bai's yard the next day, changing everything from decorations to daily expenses, but not blindly. They changed after asking Lu Xiuyuan and Yi Bai's preferences, and they were all of the highest quality.
As for Yi Bai, he directly said that he was the child of his sister-in-law Lu Qingwan, whose surname was Bai.
There are quite a few people who have contacts with the Lu family, but no one knows where Lu Qingwan married, but no one will follow up and ask.
Therefore, Yi Bai and Lu Xiuyuan became "cousins".
Yi Bai sat in his small courtyard, watching the servants come in and out to arrange the layout for him, he didn't say a word, and even looked a little dazed.
"Ah Bai, what's the matter?" Lu Xiuyuan came in from the moon gate, and seeing Yi Bai in a daze, he couldn't help asking.
"It's nothing." Yi Bai turned around, looked at Lu Xiuyuan's tender eyes, and slightly raised his lips, "I just feel that I haven't been so lively around me for a long time."
"It will be more lively in the future." Lu Xiuyuan sat down next to him, and the Second Mrs. Lu, who was directing the servants to place things, came over to greet the two of them with a smile.
Lu Xiuyuan called out naturally, "Auntie."
"Brother Yuan, you went to Beiyan this time, did you see a lot of things?" Second Mrs. Lu asked with a smile, her rolling eyes seemed to be thinking about something.
Lu Xiuyuan just ignored, nodded, "Indeed, I have seen a lot."
Second Mrs. Lu changed the subject again, "What about your legs?"
"It's all right now, I'm worried about Auntie Lao."
The Second Mrs. Lu breathed a sigh of relief, and finally got to the point, "Shortly after you left, the news of your recovery spread. I'm afraid you don't know it yet. Now I have become the son-in-law of Shuntian Mansion. Every time I go out, I always A few wives and wives inquired with me, asking where you had been, and I said that I was out to discuss business, and they begged me, saying that if you come back, you must set up a few tables for them to come and enjoy themselves."
Lu Xiuyuan couldn't understand why, Auntie was euphemistically telling him about marriage proposals, and she didn't refute, "Auntie thinks it's good, so let's do it, I have no objection."
Mrs. Lu's eyes moved slightly. She couldn't guess what this elder nephew was thinking, but she understood his temperament. It wasn't that he didn't get close to women in the past, but that he couldn't get close to women. Now he can finally walk around the ground. There are quite a few matchmakers she got through, but Mrs. Lu always finds a few random ones and dismisses them every time, leaving no hope for anyone. Although she is an elder, she is not Brother Yuan's relative after all. Father and mother, it is not appropriate to decide the marriage affairs for him privately, after all, if life is good in the future, everyone will be happy, if life is not good, she will become a sinner, so after much deliberation, I still have to have a fight with the right master call.
Lu Xiuyuan's reaction surprised the Second Mrs. Lu. Based on her understanding of this eldest nephew, no matter what happened, she had to pass her own eyes, right?Why does it sound like a very indifferent look, isn't he going to ask what the other girl is like?
This realization made Mrs. Lu feel puzzled, and asked again: "Brother Yuan, what kind of girl do you like, you might as well tell me, there are so many girls waiting to be married in the capital, Auntie can always find you a similar one."
Lu Xiuyuan curled his lips, "Auntie doesn't have to worry about me, if you think it's okay, then it's okay."
Mrs. Lu was even more puzzled, "Don't you have any demands?"
Lu Xiuyuan thought for a while, "Be nice and obedient!" He doesn't like girls who are too noisy, although these girls in the capital are all locked in the inner house and don't leave the second door. They are all quiet, but they are not uniform. There are only a few who are out of line. After all, they are going to get married and live a life, and those who are too noisy will not do.
Second Mrs. Lu can't laugh or cry, other people's family chooses a daughter-in-law who has to look upright, well-mannered, and have a good reputation. In addition, there are such and such requirements. Her eldest nephew is good. She only wants a quiet and well-behaved one. Such unconditional conditions If it gets out, I don't know how many families will fight for it.
The heir of the richest man's family, doesn't he know that his worth will skyrocket after he recovers?With so many girls to choose from, shouldn't one be unique?
The Second Mrs. Lu remembered that she saw Qin Shan at the wedding banquet when the Duke's Mansion hosted the full moon wine. She looked upright and had a quiet temperament. The official's family is a wealthy family, and it is even more impossible for Prime Minister Qin to marry his daughter into a merchant, so he can only reluctantly cut off this candidate.
If Lu Xiuyuan knew what the second wife of Lu was thinking, he would definitely refuse without saying a word. Who is Qin Shan?Su Yan's niece married Qin Shan, so he would have to call Su Yan uncle -- that's fine if he failed emotionally, if he failed again in marriage and called his rival uncle, he would lose face.
In fact, having no conditions is the most difficult condition, because he is not sure whether the girl he chooses based on his own will will satisfy him.
The Second Mrs. Lu already had a few candidates, but after hearing what Lu Xiuyuan said, she hesitated again. She had no idea after all, so she took some free time to go to Dongyang Houfu.
Fan Shi probably guessed why his younger sister came here, and turned away all the waiters before saying: "Is it because of your brother Yuan's marriage?"
The Second Mrs. Lu nodded, "Exactly. You said this child, I asked him what he likes, and he didn't ask for anything, he just said he wanted a quiet and well-behaved one. If he wanted to be quiet and well-behaved, whose girl would not Quiet and not well-behaved? That’s why I’m worried. I originally had a few of my favorites, but after what he said, I didn’t dare to make up my mind casually, so I came here to ask my sister for advice. My sister is well-informed. You should have an idea better than me, you give me the palm of your hand, what kind of girl is suitable for Brother Yuan?"
Fan paused while drinking tea, "I thought you were sure, but it turned out that I was the one who made the decision?"
"I'm so anxious that I can't sleep all night." Mrs. Lu frowned, "The two masters don't care about the affairs of the back house, and I have no choice. If even my sister can't make up her mind, I have no choice but to go I went to the Duke's Mansion, Wei girl has always been a smart girl, her eyesight is naturally impeccable, if she thinks it is feasible, she will probably be a perfect match with Brother Yuan."
Not to mention, if Yun Chuwei really shows up, no matter who he chooses, Lu Xiuyuan will definitely use all his energy to treat him well, even if he has no feelings in his heart, at least he has to give Zu Yunchuwei face.It's just that it's too late for Fan's precious daughter now, so it's impossible for her to come forward to worry about such things. It's good to know that life will be difficult in the future, but people will take their grievances on her. Bite her, thinking that her daughter might take the blame for this, Fan refused to obey, and glared at Mrs. Lu, "Don't embarrass the child."
The second wife of Lu just said casually, how can she really go to the younger generation for advice, if it gets out, it will be terrible, "My good sister, don't be devious, give me an idea, how is this marriage going?" Certainly?"
Fan's eyes narrowed, "The key is, do you want to marry a colleague or marry an official girl?"
"The elder brother is not specific, but I once heard him say that the most important thing is brother Yuan's wishes. As for marriage or something, with the status of the Lu family, there is no need to marry anyone."
This tone is really arrogant, but Fan thinks it is very pleasant to listen to, because it can be seen that Mr. Lu really loves this child Lu Xiuyuan. After so many years, he can finally walk on the ground, so he must find someone who suits him. of it?
"By the way, sister, are there any unmarried girls in your family?" The Second Mrs. Lu lowered her voice, and if there were, just arrange for ready-made ones.
When Fan heard this, her face was a little ugly, "Don't make up their minds, it's not because I don't want to, but in my heart, I don't think any of them are worthy of your brother Yuan." Besides, Yun Xueyao's head The hair on her head has only grown so much, but don’t be disgusting in the past. As for the cousin girl Qiu Xia, she has already been engaged, and she will be able to give it away after a month or two. In the end, there is only one Yun Qilan.
What kind of person is Yun Qilan? Thinking about it, after this period of turmoil, most of the people in the capital, even if they haven't seen her, have heard of her bad reputation. Such a girl who doesn't pay attention to self-cultivation, why bother marrying her and ruining her life? People, it's better to stay in the house honestly, in the future, if someone's elder brother really can't marry, he may just ask her regardless of those things, or maybe, it will be like that in this life, don't expect anything extravagantly.
Fan's words were not deliberately concealed, so it didn't take long for Yun Qilan to hear them, and she hated her teeth itchingly, "Auntie thinks that I am not good enough for Lu Xiuyuan?"
The personal nurse and wet nurse both stood aside and kept silent.
"The Lu family is just a merchant, and no matter how poor my father is, he is still a fifth-rank official. It is a blessing they have cultivated in their lives for a merchant to marry an official daughter. How dare they say that I am not worthy? Marry her and see!"
The personal nurse is a little speechless, what are you making a fuss about, girl?Isn't there enough trouble with the Cao family these days?After finally calming down, shouldn't he take advantage of this opportunity to cultivate his reputation and make up for all the previous losses?The eldest lady is right. You are just not good enough for the young master of the Lu family. Although he is a bit older, his appearance is one in a million. In addition, he is a normal person who can walk on the ground now. I don’t know how tall he is. A big family is waiting to get married, just a girl with your family background?How dare you dislike him as a business owner, maybe he won't even bother to give you a handout!
It's true that the Lu family is a merchant, but because they have a side concubine and are the richest man, even if many people often say that the merchant's status is low, there is a lot of jealousy in it. Well, in fact, I'm afraid it's too late to flatter.
The more Mammy looked at Yun Qilan, the more she felt that this girl had shallow eyelids and was not good enough for the public. Before that, the third wife tried every means to send her to Yingmei Nunnery to learn from the second girl, but the second girl "practiced" a lot. When she came back in [-], she married the number one scholar as a concubine. Although the fifth girl was only a concubine, she was still a bit taller than the second girl. She obviously had so many opportunities to fly to the top of the branch, but she still But if you put yourself to death, this time you will get a bad reputation, and if others don't dislike you, it will be considered as a face to you, and it's your turn to pick on the young master of the richest family?The face is really big.
"Nurse, help me go to the embroidery workshop to order some fashionable clothes." With her chest straightened out, Yun Qilan's self-confidence came from nowhere, and she seemed to have the confidence to speak at this moment.
The nanny said: "The girl still has several clothes that she hasn't worn!"
"I don't like those." Yun Qilan frowned. They were all made of middle-grade materials, so she couldn't wear them out. Every time her aunt went out to a banquet, she wanted to go with her, but the first thing she thought about was that she couldn't afford it. Clothes and accessories, afraid of being looked down upon when going out.
It is different now, she wants to use her beauty and strength to prove that she is not inferior in any way, how can she be as shabby as before.
Mammy still hesitated, "Girl, Sanfang's life is very tight, and I'm afraid I won't be able to spend so much money to cut clothes for you."
Yun Qilan became furious when she heard this, "What, no money again?"
Mammy sighed, and said to herself that it wasn't you who made the trouble, if you didn't kill that maid, spoil her reputation, and then make a big fuss with Cao's family shamelessly, the third wife would get a lot of money Take it out and get some to wipe your ass?Now he is blaming other people instead, he doesn't know how to restrain himself and reflect on himself, if he continues to do this, he will be no different from the Erfang who lost all his hair.
The third house was born from a concubine, and its share is not as good as that of the first two. If there is no subsidy from the master, how can the little share from the public be enough to spend? Come on, where can it relax.
Yun Qilan bit her lip, and went straight to Ding's yard to find someone. Ding was talking to the mothers in charge, when she saw her daughter coming in, she waved them away.
"Who is this daring to make our sister Lan unhappy?" The corners of Ding's eyes flew up, and he watched her angrily walking over.
Yun Qilan lowered her face, "Mother, is our family that poor? I just wanted to make some clothes, but my mother told me that I couldn't afford it. What do you think is this?"
Mrs. Ding brushed her hair, and didn't seem to take the words to heart, "How can I remember that I just made clothes for changing seasons, and you don't seem to be wearing much, and you don't want to go out to meet anyone, why do you have to yell now? To make clothes?"
Yun Qilan was a little guilty, but quickly showed her previous confidence, "Even if I don't go out, I'm still a lady of the official family, I can't even take out some clothes that are waiting for materials. People joke?"
After hearing this, Mrs. Ding sneered, "Now that you know that you are a lady from the official family, you need to show some face. When you bit the Cao family not to make a big noise a few days ago, why didn't you think about it? The people of Dongyang Hou Mansion lost the face of Dongyang Hou Mansion?"
"I..." Yun Qilan was at a loss for words. In fact, she also regretted this matter, but she really couldn't swallow that breath at the time, so she had to vent her anger and make up for it so that she could feel more balanced in her heart. On the contrary, Nao smeared his reputation more and more, so he could barely suppress it after a few months of silence, otherwise he would have been drowned by spitting stars if he was still like a few months ago.
"Mother." It's time like this, it's impossible to be soft, Yun Qilan held Ding's arm affectionately, but acted coquettishly, "Daughter knows it's wrong."
Ding didn't believe her evil, "What kind of moth are you trying to do?"
Yun Qilan pursed her lips, "Daughter has been heartbroken and aggrieved by the Cao family's affairs these days, so you can take it as a comfort to me, and go to my aunt's place to get some horses of high-quality material to make for me." Get dressed!"
Ding's face darkened, "Yun Qilan, do you know what you're talking about?" Everyone said that Mo Ruomu knew her daughter, but Ding couldn't tell that Yun Qilan probably wanted to be a demon again. Looking at this, I'm afraid it was because of man.
What happened to the Cao family before made their reputation black and stinky, and it has only subsided for a few days, and they want to continue dancing again?
Yun Qilan was terrified by Ding's cold stare, "Mother, why are you so fierce?"
Ding didn't hate her, but hated her for being uncarable. Before sending her to Yingmei Temple, she thought that she could learn a few tricks from Yun Xirong and become smarter. She never thought that when she came back, she would be smarter Yes, but they are all clever. She is having fun jumping around by herself, but in the eyes of others, she is being stupid.
Ding has always felt that as a daughter, no matter how bad her family background is, if you improve your self-cultivation first, you can stand in the crowd and shine without using your identity. As for where will Gao marry, but what about Yun Qilan?Although she is a concubine's daughter, she has assumed the title of "concubine's daughter" anyway, but she doesn't know arrogance and self-respect at all. Feeling that I have made money, and continuing to put myself aloof, it is simply a mental illness.
Ding gritted her teeth, hating that iron cannot be made into steel, "Whatever material you want, if you have the face, you can go ask your aunt, I won't go."
When Yun Chuwei's pair of twin sticks were born, the three of them pretended to be dead and ignored them. They didn't even send a small padded jacket over. Not lightly venting his anger on Fan's head, that's why he chose to ignore it, but after realizing Fan's relationship with the third room, Ding woke up suddenly, and took advantage of the full moon banquet at Yunchuwei's house to quickly send the replacement It's a pity that Fan only accepts gifts and doesn't appreciate it. He still has that lukewarm attitude, and he is still struggling now. How can Ding have the face to ask Fan? There is a fixed share of materials, and Sanfang has received the fabrics for this season long ago. Now even if she goes to talk about it, what's the use of it?
Yun Qilan snorted angrily: "Just go, I don't believe that an elder like her can embarrass a little girl like me!"
