Chapter 201 Visiting (1)
The matter has come to this point, what else can Mrs. Lu say, she can only dispel the idea of ​​sending Lu Mingfeng away, so that Mrs. Lu can continue to prepare a dowry for her, and at the age of the First Prince, she wants to wait until his confinement period expires , the emperor should order Qin Tianjian to choose the wedding date.

After the dust settled on this matter, Lu Mingxuan and Lu Mingfu boarded the carriage home together.

After a new rain, the sky is as blue as washing, the vegetation is verdant, and there is a faint rainbow hanging in the air. Under the sunlight, it emits colorful lights, and even the air is filled with the faint fragrance of soil, which is extraordinarily fresh. .

Walking on the corridor of her home, Lu Mingxuan couldn't help but took a deep breath, feeling as if her whole body stretched out in this kind of air.

It has been more than ten days since their sisters returned to their home from the Duke's Mansion, because the Qi family had already given birth before they came back, so after they came back, the Yan and Lu families began to celebrate the three books and six rituals, The three etiquettes of accepting, asking for names, and Najib were completed smoothly, and today is Najib's day of appointment.

Lu Mingxuan got up early in the morning, first went to Lu Mingfu's room to tease her, she was so ashamed that she was almost annoyed, then left Lu Mingfu's room wisely, rushed to the main room to meet Lu Zhongxian and Qi Greetings, and then helping Qi with some chores for today.

Lu Zhongxian wore a brand-new dark green eight-treasure ruyi tunic flower straight gown, and looked very good looking, while Qi wore a bright red ruyi pattern makeup and flower gown, combed a peony bun, and wore a gold and jade Guanyin manchijiao. The lapis lazuli earrings are very gorgeously dressed.

The brows and eyes of the husband and wife were full of joy, obviously very satisfied with the marriage of the Yan family.

Seeing Lu Mingxuan come in, Lu Zhongxian first smiled and said: "Why did Xuan'er come here so early? Didn't she tell you last night to let you sleep more? Is your wife responsible for everything?"

Lu Mingxuan first bowed her knees to salute him and the Qi family, and then said with a smile: "My wife has to get up to see Brother An several times a night, so she should sleep more. It's fine if my sister and I are not at home on weekdays. At home, it is natural to share worries and relieve labor for my wife."

He asked again, "Where is Brother Ang, is he awake?"

Qi smiled and said: "It's already this hour, I'm afraid it's time to wake up."

As soon as the words were finished, she saw Grandma walking in with Brother An in her arms, first bowed her knees to salute Lu Zhongxian, Qi Shi and Lu Mingxuan, and then said with a smile: "As soon as Brother woke up, he went outside to 'babble' It’s the first time I’ve seen a child who’s only two months old wake up like this.”

Qi hurriedly took the child, looked at it carefully, and then smiled: "What does he know, but he just sees the excitement outside and wants to go out to join in the fun. He is already crazy at such a young age. How can he be older?"

Lu Zhongxian couldn't hear this, and he didn't care about the saying of "caring for a grandson but not a son". He hugged his son and said in a complacent voice: "My son is Lingxing. He knew it when he was just full moon. Let people hold him upright, and he knows how to cry before he needs to pee. How can other children be so smart, let alone the new youngest son of Ming Brothers in Houjie, who is now more than four months old. Look You still look stupid and don’t understand anything.”

Both Qi and Lu Mingxuan couldn't help laughing, and Lu Mingxuan said: "It's all right for Daddy to say this in front of my wife and me. When Uncle Ming comes to have a wedding, remember Don’t say you slipped your tongue, or you’ll never end with Uncle Ming.” As he spoke, he stretched his finger in front of An Ge’er, who was only wearing a red silk apron because it was hot today, and he immediately stretched out his chubby hand. He caught it, and "babbled" at Lu Mingxuan, not knowing what he was talking about.

Ange'er has been around for more than two months now, she is white and fat, and You Qi has two dimples when she smiles, she is so cute, Lu Mingxuan's hand is grabbed by him, she feels like her heart will melt, hugging him After teasing for a while, seeing that it was getting late, he handed him over to the nurse, and ordered him to carry him to Lu Mingfu's room—although Lu Mingfu is the main character, she can't come out to meet guests today. You don't have to worry about anything, so she is the most leisurely person today, and her room is the quietest place in the entire Lu family. It would be perfectly appropriate to send Angle to her.

After ** left with Ang in her arms, the husband, wife, father and daughter sat down and had breakfast.

After Fang finished his breakfast, the uncles and brothers who had been friends with Lu Zhongxian in the clan brought their wives and daughters and servants over to help. Lu Zhongxian briefly explained to the Qi family and Lu Mingxuan, and hurried to the outer courtyard.

The rest of the Qi family and Lu Mingxuan were busy entertaining the sisters-in-law and sisters in the clan, arranging the lunch table, and dealing with some unexpected trifles. They were extremely busy. Fortunately, both mother and daughter were able People, but also arranged in an orderly manner.

As soon as noon came, there was a burst of "cracking" firecrackers outside, and a little maid trotted in and said with a smile: "The elder uncle and the matchmaker are here together."

When I was young, another little maid came running in and said: "The dowry from the eldest uncle's house is a full 36. I heard that there are silk and satin rulers, gold and silver jewelry, dragon and phoenix wedding cakes, all kinds of happy fruits, acacia quilts, and dyed red with rouge." 1000 chicken eggs and [-] duck eggs each, [-] bags of high-quality Wuyi tea, [-] carps, [-] boxes of happy bottles, and [-] taels of betrothal money... all the neighbors came to watch the fun!"

When the uncles and aunts in the family heard the news, they all enviously said to Qi: "Brother Xian and sister-in-law Xian are really lucky to have chosen such a good son-in-law!" Compared with the last time when Lu Zhongxian married Qi But this time, no one dares to speak plainly. Lu Zhongxian already has a son, and now he has a good son-in-law. Maybe when the eldest daughter will be the wife of an official, it is better for them to restrain themselves. It is uncertain what will happen in the future, maybe one day they will ask for Lu Zhongxian's house?
However, Lu Mingxuan's heart moved, she went to Qi's to have a look and said to her: "Madam, it's time to start the dinner while talking, I'll go to the kitchen and have a look, so as not to cause any trouble later."

This was originally Qi's job, but Qi couldn't leave now, so he nodded and said: "Then you go and have a look."

Lu Mingxuan agreed, and went to the kitchen for a while, then took the second door to see if there was a chance to take a look at Yan Shijiulang, so that she could learn from Lu Mingfu when she returned later, so that she could feel at ease. .

It was also a matter of luck, and because the Lu family's place was small, Lu Mingxuan just stood on the stage in the main hall of the outer courtyard for a while, and from a distance, she saw a group of people surrounded by a smiling Lu Zhongxian and another seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing crimson sea water. The youth in the dark pattern robe came over.

Lu Mingxuan knew that this young man was her future brother-in-law, so she hurriedly squinted her eyes for a closer look, and saw that his face was not very outstanding, and his facial features were also very ordinary, but his eyes were slender and bright, as straight as stars in the night sky, extremely radiant , which made his appearance, which should have been drowned immediately in the crowd, suddenly stand out, and he also has a tall and straight figure, with a refined and bookish air... I couldn't help but nodded secretly, this Yan Shijiulang is quite worthy her sister.
