Lucky not to forget

Chapter 49

A group of people didn't know why, so it was strange to look at it. After thinking about it for a long time, they couldn't remember who the sixth master of the Lu family was. At this time, Liu'er held the bucket and said, "But that Lu Zhiyao from the Earth Temple?"
Then it suddenly occurred to me that Shen Xing called him Uncle Six. He was the son of his cousin and grandmother. Thinking that he is a relative of the Wu family, it would be a bad idea not to see him, so he had to say, "Please come in, Mr. Liu."
The boy got the order to go out to pass on the message, not long after, a man holding an oil-paper umbrella came slowly, wearing a moon-white collared shirt, tall and straight, with a calm and elegant appearance, he was taken aback for a moment, and his heart panicked for a moment In the group, he thought he saw Pei Zhen, thinking wildly, could it be him?Could it be that he is really in Taoyedu and came to look for her today?Busily helping the table Fang barely stopped, his mind was dazed and his heart almost jumped out of his throat. Seeing him approaching step by step, the edge of the umbrella covered half of his body again. Zhang Baijing had a delicate face, with a smile on his face, and a gentle demeanor. He seemed a little disappointed, but he couldn't help laughing at himself suspiciously. He was the only man in the world who held an umbrella to shade him, but today he met another one!
Lu Zhiyao gave the umbrella to Liu'er, cupped his hands and said, "Come here without saying hello beforehand, don't blame the girl."
Don Wang didn't know how to address him, so he followed Shen Xing and shouted, "What did the sixth uncle say? He is a relative. It's not strange." He smiled and invited him to sit down, asked the girl to make tea, and said, "Why did Uncle Liu visit my place today?"
Lu Zhiyao said, "Because I borrowed the girl's umbrella last time and didn't return it, I happened to come to look for Brother Xing today, so I brought it along."
As soon as he mentioned it, he remembered the umbrella, and said with a smile, "What is an umbrella worth? Uncle Liu specially sent it on a hot day."
Lu Zhiyao heard that she had a sixth uncle on the left and a sixth uncle on the right, feeling a little displeased, so he lowered his head to drink tea, and slightly raised his eyes to look at her, only to see that she was wearing a lotus-colored skirt and a hazy veil on her upper body. Cross-necked short jacket, revealing a slender and beautiful neck, black and thick hair casually pulled up in a bun, with double phoenix-patterned gilt and silver hairpins inserted in the bun, and no other jewelry on the whole body, but there is another kind of exquisite beauty, secretly praised wonderful.Looking at the books spread all over the floor outside, he asked, "What book does the girl read?"

Wu Wang said, "They're all miscellaneous books, and they can't be put on the stage."
Lu Zhiyao smiled and said, "Could it be that only the Four Books and Five Classics are good, and the others are not good? I think the Shan Hai Jing is a good book. If I only test these in the imperial examination, I will definitely be the champion. "

Don't look at him being bold and generous, suddenly feel that this person may have more conversations, and Cuiping is also a little familiar with him, so he joked, "It's good for the court to hear what Liu Ye said, and it is necessary to remind the emperor. A Shan Hai Jing yamen is dedicated to the anecdotes of various departments and ministries, that is the wiseness of the sage, and it should be used."

Lu Zhiyao clapped his palms and smiled, "Exactly what I said, I wasn't expected to be an official, I just wanted to put my love on the mountains and rivers, but now it's hard for me to ride a tiger, and I'm doing evil!"
Wuwang didn't talk to him, just lowered his head and slightly curled the corners of his mouth, Lu Zhiyao made a gesture to clear his throat, "It will be Mid-Autumn Festival in a few days, my mother used to spend time with Shen Xing's mother and son, or this way, Or pass through our mansion, this year is decided for some reason, no matter what, let the girls do it together, I sent people to the village outside to find good crabs, asked them to raise them in the rice fields, and called the three Shen and the two Fangs, eating wine and guessing are fun."
Don't expect to laugh at Xie's family except Shen Xing, the rest turned out to be "Three Shens, Two Fangs". , "I'm afraid I need to add another person. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, my old lady invited a distinguished guest. She is a girl. You can just ask your second brother, he knows best."
Lu Zhiyao understood as soon as he heard it, he tapped the palm of his hand with a folding fan and said, "This kid has never mentioned it to me, and he will be punished with alcohol on that day! Do you know how to drink?"
Wu Wang tucked the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and said, "I'm abstaining from meat and alcohol this year, so get together and don't count me in."
"Why is that? Why are you taboo about these things?" Lu Zhiyao said, "But isn't it bad?"
Wu Wang shook his head and said, "I'm a filial piety, so it's not suitable for me to drink wine and drink meat."
Lu Zhiyao thought for a while and said, "It's okay to drink some plum wine, it's really not possible to replace wine with tea, it's always better for everyone to make a prescription together."
Seeing his bright face, Gu Wang couldn't help pursing his lips and said with a smile, "That's what makes it so, I'm afraid it will spoil everyone's interest."
"Chat as you say, it's a disappointment! I went back and told my wife that this year, I'll come here this year. I'll stay at home with our grandfather and old lady first, and then come to Yinhook Bieyuan." Lu Zhiyao said , "I like to make friends the most, and I met another one today, and there is nothing wrong with it, so let's make a deal, okay?"
Don't expect to hear that this person is the most unruly, and after a few words, I can't see any disrespect in him. Although I am a girl, I also like to associate with people who are upright, and he is related, so naturally He didn't feel disgusted, so he said, "Let's leave everything to Sixth Uncle's arrangements."
Lu Zhiyao shook his head and said, "This is where I suffer. I am about the same age as them, but they all call me uncle and call me old. How nice you are as brothers and sisters."

Wu Wang covered his mouth and smiled, "That's no way, who asked you to be born in the house of your cousin and grandmother."
There was another sigh of emotion, and he said later, "I just heard that you went to Songzhu Temple yesterday? Can you see that monk in the temple who eats stones? I have always wanted to meet him, but I have no chance."

Wu Wang said, "We only worshiped the Buddha and asked for a lottery. We have never heard of any monks who eat stones."
Lu Zhiyao nodded and said, "It must be because Shen Xing thought that monk was picky, so he didn't tell you on purpose. People say he is dirty, but he can write well. I am yearning for such a person. Her strengths are informal, and she is so free and easy, what do you think, Miss?"
Wu Wang said modestly, "I'm a woman in a boudoir, how can I understand these things? I'm just copying what others say. It's just that he is talented and different from ordinary people. The world admires him. Why do you think he is dirty? It can be seen that people's hearts are not enough. , take him as a joke."
Lu Zhiyao's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he sighed, "The girl is indeed insightful, it's strange that Dao Xing brother praised you in front of me! Don't we people just treat him like a joke?" There was silence in the hatchback for a while After drinking another cup of tea, Lu Zhiyao got up to say goodbye, before leaving, he said, "I'll come back to find you on the fifteenth day."
Don't hope to be blessed and said, "Uncle Six can go."
Lu Zhiyao nodded slightly, and walked away chicly, waving his Goujin fan.Liu'er wiped the ground from the inside, leaned over and looked at it and said, "After all, there are talents everywhere at the feet of the emperor."
Cuiping laughed and said, "You shameless girl, you've only seen a few talented people, and you've seen them all over the place, but you want a son-in-law? A sixth master and a sixth son, they all look like a family."
Liu'er threw the rag and rushed over, and the two girls got together again to tease each other.Wuwang washed his face and washed his hands, went to the small Buddhist hall alone, burnt incense and kowtowed his head, melted high money in the three iron basins before exiting, and wanted to go to Qinfang Garden, when he passed Taihuating, he heard Wu Wu behind the rockery. He was about to come forward to say hello to Mrs. Wu, when he suddenly heard Mrs. Wu say, "My fellow brother said that Chun Jun gave it to your brother Lu, good brother, if Brother Ruo Xing asked about this, you just said no. I know, I only know that your mother mentioned it as a kiss, but I don't know anything about it."
Wuwang sneered to himself, this second aunt is really well-intentioned, why bother to go around in circles, it wouldn't be cool to tell her directly!
Then I heard Lu Zhiyao say, "My mother actually came to propose marriage? Why didn't I know?"
Wu sneered twice and said, "Isn't Brother Lu supposed to say kiss?"
Lu Zhiyao paused, "Brother Lu is only eighteen, so he's in a hurry to talk about marriage? The elder brother hasn't gotten married yet, so he went over my order. How soon will it be his turn?"
Wu-shi faltered and talked about him again, but Lu Zhiyao ignored her and said, "Can the old lady agree?"
Wu said, "My sister doesn't want to, so it won't work."
Lu Zhiyao snorted and said with a sneer, "That's how it should be. Brother Lu is not a big man, why hasn't he seen any troubles? As long as the girls in the family are neat, he will try his best to get them. See how many he has in the house? I despise his slutty appearance the most, wouldn't it be a waste for Miss Liu to give it to him."

Mrs. Wu hurriedly said, "That's right, I also told your mother, no matter what else, the seniority is wrong, she won't listen, and I can't help it."
Lu Zhiyao snorted and said, "What kind of relatives who have no seniority, who can't be beaten by eight poles, are called uncles because of politeness, just do it with caution, you can marry if you want, it's just that it's not easy to fall into that guy In your hand. Hearing what my sister said, brother Xing has also changed his mind?"
Wu said, "Isn't that right? He has been on good terms with this younger sister since he was a child. If her family hadn't been in trouble, Sister Chun would definitely have to pay respects when she reaches the age of Ji. It's a pity that it won't happen now."
Lu Zhiyao said, "You are also philistines. If you lose your parents' property, you can't do it. What's the reason? Should you marry a girl or marry her parents?"
Wu said, "You young people don't know the pros and cons, you only think about what's in front of you..."
I don't want to lose my interest in listening to the corner of the wall, because I have no help anyway, so I squeezed my skirt and walked around, and walked slowly towards Qinfang Garden, and when I entered the Chuihua Gate, I saw a group of girls drying their clothes When they saw her, they all bowed and saluted, and after entering the main entrance, they went to the back room. The old lady was lying on the couch, and her complexion was not good. Wuwang invited An Kuo to sit by the couch, and touched her grandmother's forehead, which was slightly hot. Then she asked the big girl next to her what was wrong, and the old lady patted her hand and said, "It's nothing serious, I'll get sick every autumn, just take a few doses of medicine and you'll be fine. Have you been on incense today?"
Wu Wang said, "I just came here when I got well. How long will it take for this disease to recover?"
The old lady Xie said, "I'm afraid it will take ten days and eight days. I am also worried, and I will miss the festival."

Wu Wang said, "there are still [-] days before the festival. The old lady should be more at ease. There will be no mistakes."
The old lady Xie said, "In a few days, your aunts will come to see you. I'm sick on the bed and they worry about it. Even when I go back, I also worry about it. I don't have anything for them. I just want to be in good health so that they don't have to worry about it." , how good is it now?"
Wuwang comforted, "The old lady is worrying too much, and it's not a serious illness. Didn't she just say that it would be fine to take a few doses of medicine? Besides, the aunts are my own children. If the mother is sick, she can stay for a few more days if she is worried. Okay."
The old lady Xie said, "I'm afraid it will cheer everyone up."
Wu Wang said, "Then move the table to the back room to eat. The windows are all open. It's the same to eat wine and watch the moon in the room."
Mrs. Xie's mood improved a lot after she enlightened her. The grandparents and grandchildren chatted and laughed for a while, but the waiters drank the medicine and fed a bowl of bird's nest porridge. After the old lady fell asleep, they returned to Yingouyuan.
