341 Chapter 2: Introducing Bricks and Attracting Jade ([-])
Answering "No" is not true, even if many people in the capital knew that the Duke of Dingguo had given up on Lu Mingya, it would be too cold to say it in person, and it would also give people a feeling that the daughter of the Lu family will be married. She is from someone else's family, and her natal family will never stand up for her. She can belittle and humiliate her at will. Grandma Lu also has a daughter now, and she doesn't want her daughter to be belittled or even humiliated by her husband's family in the future. !

Grandma Lu couldn't help but secretly annoyed. As the future wife of Duke Dingguo and the clan wife of the Lu family, she would naturally not be the kind of person who would not return the favor after being bullied by others. With a half-smile in his throat, he wanted to reply to Xiao Xu's words.

Before she could open her mouth, Lu Mingzhu said with a half-smile: "Second Cousin's words are really interesting. Could it be that in Second Cousin's heart, the sisters and sisters of the Xu family have the same weight as the sisters and sisters of the Qi family? , that second cousin's sister-in-law is really comparable to Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, we mortals all believe in the saying 'blood is thicker than water', and there is another saying 'there is a difference between closeness and estrangement', but we are far from second cousin sister-in-law's mind and tolerance of."

Although the little Xu family is related by blood to Lu Wenting and Lu Mingzhu, it is not related to the other daughters of the Dingguo Duke Mansion, except for the brother and sister and Lu Wenqian. Just like calling her "cousin and cousin", just like her nephews and nieces from Mrs. Xu's natal family, although everyone calls "cousin and cousin" affectionately, they have nothing to do with each other.

Lu Mingzhu intentionally compared the girls of the Qi family with Xiao Xu's sisters and cousins. Although she didn't say it clearly, the meaning was very clear. You, a person who has nothing to do with Dingguo's family, actually hope that Dingguo The people in the mansion treat you like the eldest daughter of their own family, and don't treat one more favorably than the other, aren't you joking?
After Lu Mingzhu finished speaking, she paused, then laughed again: "As for the side concubine Lu, it's true that she is a girl from Dingguo's mansion, and it's true that the emperor specially gave her second cousin to be a side concubine, but we Dingguo The government has always been a family who understands the rules and measures, so it is absolutely impossible to keep in touch with her frequently and help her suppress the truth of the second cousin who is the mistress. Besides, the second cousin is also familiar with her on weekdays. Are we still worried? If you don't treat her kindly, it won't work, so what difference does it make if we come to see her or not?"

When Mrs. Xu was talking to Grandma Lu, she didn't deliberately lower her voice, so there were already a lot of guests in the waterside pavilion, and they were all busy with you and me. I heard it, and after listening to Huatou, I pricked up my ears in a hurry.

After hearing Lu Mingzhu's words, everyone couldn't help thinking to themselves, is it true that Dingguo's mansion is the mother's home of the first princess, and it is ridiculous for the second princess to say these words, just like what the county magistrate Jiahe said , Could it be that the people in Dingguo's mansion don't kiss their own family, but kiss her as an outsider?Even if the Concubine Lu of the Second Prince's Mansion is also a girl from the Dingguo Mansion, one is that the latter is just a concubine, and the other is that the latter is just a mere side concubine. A fool should know which is more important, let alone two The words of the prince and concubine are not lacking in the attitude of belittling Dingguo's government, but the words of the Jiahe county master are beautiful!

What Lu Mingzhu wants to say is exactly what Grandma Lu wants to say, but Grandma Lu is a cousin after all, and she is much older than the Second Concubine, and Grandma Lu's status is also lower than that of the Second Concubine. If grandma Lu said it, the meaning is still the same, but the words have to be more euphemistic. Naturally, it is far less pleasant than Lu Mingzhu. The serious cousin of the second prince, even if she talks about the second concubine, she is talking about it for nothing. Could it be that the second concubine can really argue with her husband's cousin?
Now Grandma Lu couldn't help laughing to herself, and she was also very fortunate. Fortunately, she brought Lu Mingzhu with her today, otherwise how could she be so happy now? Lu Mingzhu's mouth is certainly uncomfortable when she talks about her own people, but she didn't expect to say When others can achieve such an effect, it can be regarded as both pros and cons!
Xiao Xu didn't expect that her few words would provoke such a long speech from Lu Mingzhu, but it was hard for her to reply, so she couldn't help but clenched her fists fiercely in annoyance.

Little Xu has known since she was a child that Lu Mingfeng, the eldest cousin, will be the eldest concubine in the future. When she was young, she didn't realize how big the gap between the two was, but when she grew up, she knew that Lu Mingfeng would become the eldest concubine in the future. What does it mean? She thinks that her appearance and family background are no worse than Lu Mingfeng's, and she is usually Empress Xu's niece and niece. Why should she be prostrate at Lu Mingfeng's feet in the future?
Who would have thought that she would be blessed with profound blessings, seeing that she could only marry a man with a similar family background as her own, but the emperor suddenly decreed that she be bestowed on the second prince to be his concubine, and in the blink of an eye, she was with the eldest cousin whom he had envied for many years Sitting on an equal footing, one can imagine how satisfied she was in her heart. After entering the door, she couldn't help but want to overwhelm Lu Mingfeng with important things, so that the empress aunt would know that she was no worse than Lu Mingfeng.

That's what she thought, and she did the same thing. She stole the limelight at several palace banquets after entering the door, which made Lu Mingfeng's elder sister-in-law look bleak, and even the emperor and empress dowager praised her several times. Gradually, she was not satisfied with just being a concubine, but wanted to sit in a higher position. You must know that she is only one step away from that position, and it is not as far away as before. .

Therefore, when the second prince asked her to hold a small birthday party, she only thought that the second prince wanted to take this opportunity to win people's hearts, and agreed without even thinking about it. Why wouldn't she be willing to do something that is beneficial to the great cause in the future?Therefore, her positioning of her own image is approachable.

Just now when I told Grandma Lu to tell them not to have sex with her, and not to favor each other between her and Lu Mingfeng, she was really joking at first, but as she talked, she remembered that since she entered the door, she seemed to be on the surface. It's beautiful, but in fact, even Lu Mingya, the side concubine, can't hold back. The second prince still spends at least ten days in Lu Mingya's room in January, and he is almost on the same level as her main concubine. How much she can't wait to see Lu Mingya in her heart It is conceivable that the second prince also protected Lu Mingya tightly. She couldn't help Lu Mingya for a while, so she unavoidably vented her anger on Grandma Lu. As soon as she said the words, she regretted it, but it was too late. Respectful and affectionate, but actually sneered at her fiercely, it is really hateful!
Xiao Xu took several deep breaths before suppressing her anger, and forced a smile: "The fourth cousin is still so good at talking, and I don't know which family's young master will have this blessing in the future. Yan Rose to marry home? I remember that my fourth cousin is only a few months younger than me, and now I have been married for several months, but the fourth cousin’s marriage is still not settled, fourth cousin must hurry up!”
