Step by step lotus flower

Chapter 337
Mrs. Lu heard that her daughter was about to leave, she couldn't help but she was filled with reluctance, but she also knew that the family banquet in the palace must not be late, so she had to tell her daughter a few more words, and then took her back to Rongtaiju. After resigning from Mrs. Lu, Grandma Lu led the people to the outside of the Chuihua Gate to board the car.

On the third day after the Dragon Boat Festival, Lu Mingxuan received a letter from Ling Mengqi, which was forwarded by Lu Zhongxian. The letter was several pages long, and the envelope was tightly sealed. At first, Lu Mingxuan thought that Ling Mengqi had some serious business. Tell her that's why I wrote so many, but who knows that the letter wrote: "Xuanxuan, Qingqing, it's been a few days since we parted. The ancients said, 'One day is like three autumns'. , I think about you and I am crazy, last night I saw you in my dream, and you were so sweet to me... This evening, in my heart, you know what you know...Qingqing, I don't know how long we have been apart, life is so far away ..."

Ling Mengqi used more than a thousand words to repeatedly babble about one thing, that is, how much he missed Lu Mingxuan these days after being separated, so much that he thought about it every day and dreamed about it at night, making Lu Mingxuan blush and endure... I couldn't help being funny, thinking to myself before that she thought this guy's face was already thick enough, who knew he immediately proved to her what "there is no thickest, only thicker". Fortunately, her father has always respected her and tolerated her. Like the other parents, he would open and read her letter first, and only after he felt that he could show it to her would he actually show it to her. Otherwise, if he let his father read it, he would never have to meet anyone again!

Lu Mingxuan endured her shyness and amusedness, read the entire letter, and finally saw the sentence "I have successfully arrived in Yangzhou, don't worry", she couldn't help but curl her lips secretly. This sentence is the most valuable in the whole letter, and the rest is straightforward. It's all nonsense, but even if it's nonsense, she still likes to watch it... Lu Mingxuan's heart has been hanging for many days, and so far, half of it has finally come down to reality.

A few days later, Lu Mingli's wedding date was set, but it was the first day of October, and there were still more than four months left. Although she was a little nervous, because Lu Mingli was only a concubine, she would not marry as well as Lu Mingfeng. So prominent, so whether it is from the dowry or the dowry personnel, they are far behind Lu Mingfeng, and more than four months are enough to prepare everything.

After the wedding date was set, Lu Mingli and her aunt finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although the marriage was settled early, as long as the wedding date is not fixed and the marriage is not officially married, there may be accidents in the middle. Now They can finally rest assured that they are not afraid that Mrs. Lu will make trouble again.

How could Lu Mingli's mother and daughter's little thought be hidden from Mrs. Lu, but she didn't do anything, just sneered to herself, and handed over Lu Mingli's dowry and other matters to Mrs. Lu While making preparations, she devoted herself to the busy process of choosing a sequel for Lu Zhongjing. There was no other way, she had already promised Mrs. Lu, even if she didn't want to, she had to pretend on the surface.

Mrs. Lu picked and picked, and finally selected three candidates she thought were the most suitable candidates for Mrs. Lu to see. Mrs. Lu saw that they were all low-ranking officials of the fifth and sixth ranks, and her family background was average, so she was very satisfied. Lu Zhongjing was appointed by the eldest daughter of an officer surnamed Duan in the Ministry of War, and then a matchmaker was invited to come to the door. After a few days, the three letters and six ceremonies were completed, and the marriage was considered settled, and the wedding was only waiting for an auspicious day at the end of the year.

There is also the matter of Lu Zhongyu accepting the Xiao family. Although it is only a concubine, it is far from marrying a wife, but because the relationship between Lu Zhongyu and Princess Fuhui is in name only, the more Lu Zhongyu looks at the Xiao family, the more satisfied he is. Not wanting to offend my youngest son too much, so I also invited a few tables of wine and set up a play. It was a lively day, and it was a face for Xiao Shi. Turn a blind eye to this too.

The next morning, Mrs. Xiao endured the soreness in her body and got up early in the morning. She changed into a pink gown and wanted to go to the Princess Mansion to kowtow and offer tea to Princess Fuhui. Originally, Lu Zhongyu refused to let Mrs. Xiao go. Fearing that Princess Fuhui would humiliate or even beat and scold her again, she couldn't hold back Xiao Shi and said: "Now the eldest princess is still the wife of the master, and the mistress of the concubine. If the concubine does not go to kowtow to the mistress and offer tea, it is really unreasonable." If it doesn't agree, others may say that I am frivolous, please don't let my concubine be charged with 'being arrogant'!" Yun Yun.

Lu Zhongyu was a groom again last night, warm and fragrant and soft in his arms, I don't know how happy he is, now it's time for Xiao Shi to see how he loves, and seeing her insist on going to pay respects to Princess Fuhui, he has to reluctantly agree After that, he accompanied Mrs. Xiao to the Elder Princess's Mansion.

Ever since Princess Fuhui returned to the mansion from the palace that day, she fell ill with anger. It was her close mother and the ladies who waited on her in full clothes. Let her get better gradually, but she still held her breath in her heart, vowing to tear Xiao Shi into pieces!
Who knew that she hadn't troubled Mrs. Xiao yet, but Mrs. Xiao came to protest first. Princess Fuhui was so furious that she immediately wanted to order someone to beat Mrs. Xiao to death. It was Lu Wenzhu who tried to persuade her temporarily with both soft and hard words. She asked someone to go out to spread the word, saying that she was unwell, and asked Aunt Xiao to go back, and she didn't have to come here in the future, she just needed to serve Mrs. Lu with peace of mind.

Lu Zhongyu saw that Mrs. Xiao came to kowtow and offer tea with good intentions, but Princess Fuhui didn't see her directly, and there was nothing to reward her. The more she hated Princess Fuhui, the more she felt that Mrs. Xiao was sensible. He really wronged her, and after returning, he loved her even more Mrs. Xiao gave all of her body to Mrs. Xiao for safekeeping, and all the girls and women in the Duke's Mansion rushed to flatter Mrs. Xiao.

When the news reached Princess Fuhui's ears, needless to say, she was very angry, because her body had not recovered, she was powerless to go to the Duke's mansion to find Mrs. Xiao's troubles, and because the Empress Dowager personally issued Having said that, she couldn't really do anything to Xiao Shi in a short period of time, so she had to force herself to suppress the bad breath in her heart first, and then she would attack it together when she had a suitable opportunity in the future.

Being so busy, it will soon be mid-June, and the weather is so hot that people feel restless and irritable every day. Fortunately, Lu Mingxuan can receive a letter from Ling Mengqi from time to time, and she is immersed in the joy of reading the letter every day. In the anticipation of receiving letters, it is not difficult.

On this day, Lu Mingxuan and Lu Mingfu got up early and went to Rongtaiju to greet Mrs. Lu. They didn't want them to go early, but Lu Mingli went earlier. Lu Mingli has been like this for a while, and the two sisters have long been used to it. , knowing that she wants to please Mrs. Lu, so I can add more makeup to her. Although they feel that Lu Mingli's doing this is somewhat utilitarian, they can't just say that she is doing something wrong, after all, "people don't do it for themselves" Well, it's only natural for Lu Mingli to think that she can live a better life with more dowry.

At that moment, Mrs. Lu finished washing, and the three sisters were called in. After everyone bowed their knees and saluted, they were chatting and laughing with Mrs. Lu. Mrs. Lu and Grandma Lu came, and Grandma Lu was still holding a few bright red bronzing papers. The invitation card for sprinkled flowers is that the second princess will hold a small birthday party in the near future. Because I am young, I dare not disturb the elders, so I only invited the grandmas and ladies from various families. Please be sure to appreciate it when the time comes.
