Chapter 157 Osmanthus Brew

Smart people have always been like this, and they can build relationships with people quietly.

Although Mrs. He doesn't like Aunt An very much, she appreciates her craft of brewing sweet-scented osmanthus.

The two chatted happily, and Aunt An took advantage of the opportunity to mention He Tai.

With envy in her tone, she raised her hand and poured sweet-scented osmanthus wine for Mrs. He, and said with a smile, "Second Young Master is really smart. He can win the Yuan Dynasty at such a young age, and has a bright future in the future." Ma'am, how did you raise him in normal times? It can be seen that you have worked hard to be so outstanding. "

When He Tai was mentioned, Mrs. He's face immediately glowed with pride, "It's also because this child is energetic and sensible, and moreover, he is also willing to study hard." She sighed: "It doesn't matter whether it is hot summer or cold these years, he will be able to do it in the future." Every day, I get up at the fifth watch, and at night, I study hard until midnight." A smile bloomed on the corner of his lips, and he took another sip of sweet-scented osmanthus brewing, "He has put his mind to it...just to reassure me."

The eldest wife curled her lips when she heard this, hating her son for not living up to expectations.

But it's strange to say that Lu Wenhui also studied from morning to night, why couldn't he be in high school?
It used to be Su Ziwen High School, and now it is He Tai High School. Among this group of people, Lu Wenhui is about to fall alone.If you take one step down, you may not be able to catch up with the next step even if you ride a horse day and night.

Thinking of this, the eldest wife felt even more anxious, sighed sullenly in her heart, and immediately ran away with most of her energy.

Aunt An watched all directions with her eyes, and she could naturally sense the depression of the eldest wife.This time Lu Wenhui didn't even get a qualification for the next test, which is embarrassing to say the least.

The Lu family spends a lot of money on him every year, and the teachers are also the best invited from the capital. They are the best and most expensive for food and clothing on weekdays. .

In the final analysis, Lu Wenhui's brain is not good enough, so he can't blame others.

Mrs. He Er also noticed that the eldest wife was unhappy. She gave a dry cough and winked at Aunt An, which meant to tell her not to mention the incident again.

Aunt An smiled knowingly, and took the opportunity to say: "Second Young Master has also reached the age of engagement, and when the marriage is settled, the burden on your shoulders will be lightened."

She tried to test Mrs. He's tone first.

Mrs. He has always been cautious about He Tai's marriage. Mrs. Lu had deliberately matched He Tai and Lu Shuyi at the birthday banquet before, but she refused at that time.

His son, Jin Gui, will be worthy of a family no matter what happens in the future.

She pursed her lips and smiled, and said perfunctorily, "Hey...the marriage is not in a hurry, a man is a man, and his career is the first. Besides, I am not old-fashioned. I have to force my son to marry and have grandchildren. It depends on his own wishes. If he wants to get married, Of course I can't stop it."

It's clearly a perfunctory remark.

Aunt An's heart was like a mirror, she only smiled and said: "That's true, as the second young master is outstanding, he is also a figure sought after by girls at any time, and things like getting a wife are naturally a matter of course."

Aunt An knows the truth of wearing thousands of clothes and not wearing clothes if she flatters her.

Sure enough, Mrs. He was in a good mood when she heard that, and when she was in a good mood, she even brought up the matter of taking a concubine for He Tai, "...Although that is the case, but the second child has also reached the age of marriage, I was thinking... how about first Get him a concubine, or find him a roommate."

They are all wives and mothers, and there is nothing shy about speaking.

Mrs. He Er said: "He is at the young age now, and he has a concubine or concubine to serve him, so that he will not cause any trouble outside, and it will be difficult to deal with in the future."

It is also reasonable for Mrs. He Er to worry about these things.

When she first married the second master of the He family, the second master of the He family kept two rooms outside.It was rumored outside that Mrs. He also put in a lot of effort to settle the two rooms and the outer room.

Compared with the concubine's room, which is placed in the open, those outer rooms hiding in the dark are the thorns in the main room's heart...

The Second Mrs. He is afraid that He Tai will follow in the footsteps of his old man, and will raise women outside without anyone noticing. When the time comes to marry him, the women in the house will quarrel with the women outside. pain.

Instead of waiting until that step, it is better to put a well-behaved girl in the house for him.

I really want to take a concubine...

Aunt An pinched her fingers and listened calmly.

"...Hey, it's hard to find a well-behaved and sensible person who is willing to marry as a concubine now!" Second Mrs. He sighed deeply, her gaze fell on Aunt An, and she wanted to say a few more words, but she Suddenly woke up Aunt An is also a concubine, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to talk too much, and was about to find another topic, but there was a burst of laughter outside the door.

The girl's laughter was crisp and lively, like the sweet spring gurgling through the crevices of the stones.

As soon as I heard the sound, three girls walked in side by side holding the corners of their skirts.

The people who came were Lu Shuyi, Lu Shujing and Lu Shuqing.

The three girls who walked in side by side looked as beautiful as a painting, full of vitality with every smile and frown.

Especially Lu Shuyi, with her tall figure, fair and beautiful cheeks, and a dignified smile, she seemed to have stepped out of a painting at a glance.

Mrs. He squeezed the veil in her hand, feeling a pity in her heart, how nice it would be if such a beautiful person was born in a better family?In that case, maybe she can really be the daughter-in-law of their He family.

But it's not good for a woman to be too beautiful, and I feel uneasy at home.

Aunt An looked at the three people who came in, her face twitched unconsciously.

She managed to get along with Second Mrs. He and talked about He Tai's marriage. What are these three little hooves doing here?It's disgusting to interfere with her serious business.

The three of them stepped forward to greet Mrs. He and Mrs. He.

A look of uneasiness flashed across Aunt An's face.

Lu Shuyi keenly sensed the unease, stood in front of Aunt An with a smile and said, "So Auntie is here too, is Auntie in good health? You haven't gone out for half a year."

Aunt An calmed her mind, smiled softly and said, "Thank you for your greetings, Miss San, the maidservant is much better."

"Well, that's good." Lu Shuyi smiled and said lightly: "My aunt has never been well, and my mother can't sleep well every day and can't eat well. I always worry about my aunt. I'm afraid that my aunt will lose your body and my father will blame you."

Aunt An's face turned red immediately.

But she is not shy but ashamed.

Everyone in the Lu family's family knew that the second master Lu hadn't visited her even once in the past six months.

How could he blame a woman he no longer cared about?
Regardless of whether Lu Shuyi did it on purpose or not, the first lady and Mrs. He were refreshed after hearing this.

The eyes of these two people fell on Lu Shuyi.

Lu Shuyi's face was peaceful, she couldn't see any unfriendliness, let alone her "intentional" just now.

Mrs. He Er wondered secretly, if this girl did it on purpose just now, wouldn't her expression be indifferent now?How long does it take to hone a little girl like this?
Anyway, her words embarrassed Aunt An, not just embarrassing, but very embarrassing.

Aunt An's fingers were curled up in the palm of her hand, her nails were so fiercely sunk into the flesh, she didn't say a word.

"...Wow, it's sweet-scented osmanthus stuffing. I like sweet-scented osmanthus stuffing the most." Lu Shuqing always felt out of tense, and blinked her eyes on the sweet-scented osmanthus stuffing sent by Aunt An. She clicked her tongue and said, "I My mother was afraid that I would get drunk, so she always dared not let me drink..."

The girls of the big family will be taught to drink from an early age. Their own mothers will teach them what kind of wine to drink and how to drink it.

This sentence just saved Aunt An from the siege.

Aunt An also seemed to be relieved, and the tense expression on her face relaxed.

The eldest wife laughed and said: "Your mother is afraid that you will drink too much and make trouble. Look at your second sister and eldest sister. I won't tell them to eat too much."

Lu Shuqing pursed her lips and said "Oh": "The sky is so good, the second sister always refuses to go out for a walk, isn't she afraid of boredom?"

"That's right, that's right, we're here to ask her to go out to play." Lu Shujing ran all the way just now, saying that she wanted to catch butterflies, but now her little face was flushed, very cute.

The eldest wife also wanted Lu Shuqi to go out, but she just refused.

The doctor also prescribed a lot of medicine, but the medicine didn't have any effect at all, and instead made the child lose a lot of weight.

After all, the eldest wife did not find Lu Shuqi's crux.

Lu Shuyi knew the crux of Lu Shuqi's problem in her heart, but Lu Shuqi didn't tell the eldest wife, how could she tell the truth to an outsider.

"Since you are here, please persuade her well and let her go out and walk around more..." The eldest wife sighed reluctantly, and sent: "Go, you must persuade her well."

"This sweet-scented osmanthus brew..." Lu Shuqing looked greedily at the sweet-scented osmanthus brew on the table, with an expression that I wanted to drink it.

It was the first time for Mrs. He to meet a woman who loves to drink sweet-scented osmanthus wine like her. She could not restrain a smile on her face, "Come on, I still have some in this bowl. You can have a sip."

Lu Shufang was still a little embarrassed, "This, this is not good!"

"What's the problem?" Mrs. He Er's attitude was very friendly, changing from her cold and difficult attitude in the past.

Sure enough, it was right for her.

Lu Shuyi smiled calmly. The purpose of her bringing Lu Shuqing here is also here, which is called following suit.

She said slowly: "Is the honey in this sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed with loquat honey?"

Mrs. He was taken aback for a moment, and her gaze fell on Lu Shuyi.

Aunt An was also taken aback, her brows furrowed together invisibly.

The sweet-scented osmanthus stuffed by her is delicious because the honey used is not ordinary Sophora japonica jujube honey, but loquat honey.

How did Lu Shuyi know this?

In her memory, Lu Shuyi knew nothing about wine making. How could she know the secret of making sweet-scented osmanthus?
Lu Shujing was also curious, and looked at Lu Shuyi with big watery eyes, "Sister, how do you know it's loquat honey?"

This is exactly what Mrs. He Er wants to know.

Just now Aunt An talked to her, and what she said was the most basic. Aunt An didn't tell her the most important thing.

　There were too many things yesterday, it was late at night when I got home, so I didn’t update it, I will make it up today, okay~
