Yijia Yishi

Chapter 224
Lu Shuyi didn't want to discuss this matter with Lu Shuqi any more, she just said that she was unwell, and left the Nuan Pavilion with an excuse.

There was a cold wind outside, and the corners of his clothes fluttered.

Mo Ju whispered: "Miss Nine speaks so arrogantly, why doesn't Mrs. Six ignore her?"

Lu Shuyi gathered the silver-red cloak around her body casually, and said lightly: "I'm used to being pampered, it's inevitable. Besides, her grandparents' family is an old man in Beijing, so she naturally feels that she is more noble than others."

"Is it amazing in Beijing?" Dongmei muttered in a low voice, "If people in Beijing are like Miss Jiu, who would dare to be friends with them?"

"But Miss Fifth seems much calmer." Mo Ju had a particularly good impression of Lu Shuxia, and smiled with the corners of her lips curled up: "Miss Fifth speaks decently, and has a gentle temper. It can be seen that Mrs. Fifth teaches well on weekdays. .”

The wife of the fifth room, Mrs. Su, was born in a scholarly family. She is gentle and humble, and knowledgeable about books and etiquette. Naturally, the children she educates will not be too bad.

Lu Shuyi nodded approvingly, and said, "So in the future, we can spend more time with Fifth Sister. As for Ninth Sister...you should avoid it if you can."

Different ways do not conspire with each other, she doesn't want to get entangled with the ignorant little girl.

Mo Ju Dongmei and the others also agreed.

The three of them walked all the way to Lanyue Pavilion, and there was a reason for Lu Shuyi to go back so early. On the one hand, it was to avoid talking with Lu Shuqi, and on the other hand, it was to go back to accompany Chai Xiu'e earlier.

This New Year's Eve, Chai Xiu'e is staying alone in Lanyue Pavilion.

During the banquet, Lu Shuyi had repeatedly invited her, but she refused to attend the Lu family banquet, she just declined: "After all, today is New Year's Eve, and this is a big day for family reunion. I will be cautious when I go alone. And You are too distracted to take care of me, I think it's really inappropriate, so I still won't go."

Lu Shuyi had no choice but to let Pan'er and Dongqing stay and serve her.During the banquet, I asked the kitchen to send some food over. I don't know if she ate it?

Lu Shuyi quickened her pace and walked along the corridor. Who knew that when she first arrived at the Crescent Gate of Lanyue Pavilion, she met a person.

The man was wearing a black squirrel-skin cloak, and was holding a very delicate octagonal food box in his hand. He was standing and wandering in the yard of Lanyue Pavilion.

Today is New Year's Eve, and all the maids and women in the courtyard got rewards and organized a dinner party by themselves, so there was no one on duty in the courtyard.

The man stretched his neck and wandered in the yard, stomping his feet lightly from time to time, showing that he was freezing.

Mo Ju was startled, and immediately stopped and stood by the Crescent Gate, and said in a low voice, "Who is this?"

Dongmei also looked at the back without blinking and thought for a long time before saying: "This...isn't this the fourth young master? It's so cold, why is he here?"

Lu Shuyi fixed her eyes on that person, and then took a closer look at the light, it was not Lu Wenhui.

With a look of hesitation, he wandered back and forth with his things in his hands. When he stopped, he would stretch his neck and look towards the place where Chai Xiu'e lived. His gaze seemed to open a hole in the door of Chai Xiu'e's room.

A helpless smile suddenly appeared on Lu Shuyi's face.

Ever since Chai Xiu'e came to live with her, Lu Wenhui would find some small reason to talk to her every now and then, and every time he happened to bring something to eat, and he happened to have a share of Chai Xiu'e.

If it was said that Lu Wenhui was hospitable, she would not believe it if she was killed.

He was clearly interested in Chai Xiu'e, and wanted to get in touch with Chai Xiu'e more through this method, so that Chai Xiu'e could get to know him.

He is not afraid of being discovered by the eldest wife by doing this...

Lu Shuyi shook her head with a wry smile, and walked through the crescent door.

The sound of footsteps behind him startled Lu Wenhui. He instinctively shook his head and wanted to escape, but when he turned around, he realized that it was too late, and Lu Shuyi had already walked in.

"Isn't this the fourth brother? Why are you here?" Lu Shuyi pretended to be surprised, but her eyes sized Lu Wenhui several times without hesitation.

Although Lu Wenhui was wearing a squirrel skin cloak, his face was still blue and purple from the cold, especially the tip of his nose, which was red from the cold, which showed that he had been wandering here for a while.

"I see fourth brother, you seem to be freezing..." Lu Shuyi blinked.

"No, no, I'm not cold." Lu Wenhui immediately shook his head in embarrassment and denied, "I just came too, just a few steps ahead of you."

"Really?" The corners of Lu Shuyi's lips were lightly raised, and the expression on her face was very intriguing. Her eyes fell on the food box in Lu Wenhui's hand, and she said with a smile, "Fourth brother is here to deliver food again?"

Lu Wenhui was still full of embarrassment, coughed lightly and said: "Then what... I was thinking that Miss Chai is a guest of our house. It's Chinese New Year. She is a girl and her family is alone here, she will definitely... You must be homesick." He blushed slightly, and said, "So I bought some food from the kitchen and sent it to her, but when I got here, I realized that you were not there, third sister, so I..."

He gave a wry smile and explained: "After all, men and women are different. If you're not here, it's not easy for me to send food in. Are you right?"

On this point, Lu Wenhui is indeed a gentleman. Although he really likes Chai Xiu'e, he doesn't want to ruin Chai Xiu'e's reputation because of some of his actions.

Lu Shuyi also admired him very much. She smiled narrowly and said, "Fourth Brother still cares. There are so many boys in the Lu family, and Fourth Brother still remembers sister Xiu'e."

Chai Xiu'e is one year older than her, so she calls Chai Xiu'e sister in private.

Listening to the sound, Lu Wenhui blushed immediately, and immediately explained clumsily: "Third sister, you...you may have misunderstood, I also think that she is a girl who spends the New Year at someone else's house, and it is inevitable that she will be in another house. It will... it will inevitably be uncomfortable, I really have no other ideas..."

The more he explained, the more unclear the explanation became, and the feeling became darker and darker.

In the end, even Dongmei couldn't bear to listen to his explanation, and muttered in a low voice: "At first, our third lady didn't think anything wrong, it's the fourth young master, you think too much..."

Lu Wenhui was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say.

Lu Shuyi pursed her lips and laughed, took the food box in his hand and said: "Okay, fourth brother, you don't need to explain anything, I know you have good intentions and that's all. I'll take this food for Sister Xiu'e , thank you fourth brother."

After she finished speaking, she told Dongmei: "Take the corner lamp to see off Fourth Master. It's dark and the road is slippery. Don't let Fourth Master stumble on the road."

She didn't intend to let Lu Wenhui go in to meet Chai Xiu'e.

It would be bad if there was news about the New Year's Eve.

Lu Wenhui was stunned for a moment, and immediately hesitated and asked: "Third sister, you...won't you invite me to sit in the room?"

He really wanted to see Chai Xiu'e.

Especially on such a special festival, he hopes to talk to Chai Xiu'e to relieve Chai Xiu'e's homesickness.

Lu Shuyi didn't give him a chance, she raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Aren't Fifth Brother and the others here today? Fourth Brother, won't you talk to them?"

Lu Wenhui blinked his eyes, and couldn't think of what to say for a moment. After standing there for a while, he said in frustration, "That's right, Fifth Brother and the others rarely come back. I...I should go and talk with them."

Lu Wenhui's tone was very low, looking weak.

Lu Shuyi almost softened her heart.

But in the end she just simply smiled, nodded and said: "Then I will thank fourth brother on behalf of sister Xiu'e, fourth brother walk slowly."

Lu Wenhui nodded, turned around listlessly and walked away, just after taking half a step, he hurriedly turned his head and said, "What..." Halfway through the sentence, he looked around and saw that Mo Ju and Dongmei were all looking at him , He pursed his lips hesitantly, walked to Lu Shuyi's side, and whispered: "There is a bowl of bird's nest porridge in the food box, it is still hot, you let Miss Chai drink it while it is hot."

He turned around just to remind this sentence.

Lu Shuyi's heart softened a bit.

She couldn't help but pulled Lu Wenhui's arm and walked aside. When she reached a secluded place, she said with a straight face: "Fourth brother, do you know that it's really obvious what you're doing?"

Lu Wenhui was stunned for a while, and after a while of shock, he stammered: "You... what did you see?"

Lu Shuyi smiled wryly and shook her head: "I'm not blind, how could I not see it? You like Chai Xiu'e, right?"

Lu Shuyi said it directly.

She felt that at this moment she had to confirm Lu Wenhui's intentions.

Lu Wenhui was sweating profusely, and he didn't know where to put his nervous hands.

"Really... really so obvious?" Lu Wenhui's eyes widened, as if he still couldn't believe it.

He felt that he didn't do it so obviously, how could Lu Shuyi see it?
Lu Shuyi said speechlessly: "The house has guests before, I have never seen you take care of that one. But Chai Xiu'e is different, you send some snacks in three days, and fruit in four days, and every time there is Chai Xiu'e Why, you think I'm stupid, can't even see through this point?"

In the end, she didn't forget to complain: "Your behavior, I guess everyone around me has already noticed it, but you still think you are smart."

"What? Everyone around you has already seen it?" Lu Wenhui held his forehead, feeling ashamed.

Lu Shuyi could only sigh helplessly, it seems that there is a saying that is correct, the authorities are obsessed with love, many obvious things, they themselves will think it is very clever.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Mo Ju and the others yourself, and ask them if they can see your thoughts..."

"This..." Lu Wenhui raised his hand and patted his forehead, sighed and sighed, and finally said: "Forget it, I'd better not ask..."

Lu Shuyi nodded, and then said seriously: "When did it start?"

Lu Wenhui put his hands behind his back and pretended to be stupid: "When did it start? I don't understand."

He really didn't want to expose all his secrets in front of others, especially in front of his younger sister, he would feel very humiliated.

Lu Shuyi snorted angrily, and said seriously: "I already know your secret, what else do you have to say to me? Are you afraid that I will tell Chai Xiu'e?" She immediately shook her head and said: "No, no , I won't tell her about your violent thoughts."

"You want to keep a secret for me?" Lu Wenhui asked with staring eyes.

Lu Shuyi shook her head again, denying, "No, I'm not keeping a secret for you, but I think it's impossible for the two of you, so I don't need to tell her your feelings, it's just sad."

The eldest wife is really too powerful. The person she values ​​most in her life is Lu Wenhui. How can she let Lu Wenhui marry a girl like Chai Xiu'e?
Even if Chai Xiu'e overcomes all difficulties and marries Lu Wenhui, how do you know that the eldest wife will not always show her face?

She has experienced the appearance of the eldest wife in her previous life.

The expression on Lu Shuyi's face was very serious. She looked at Lu Wenhui and said very seriously: "You also know that Chai Xiu'e has no father, no mother, and no backer? Although she is kind-hearted, gentle and lovely, she is indeed an excellent girl. .But compared to those ladies from high-ranking families, she is really nothing in the eyes of my aunt. Once you express your intentions, are you not afraid that your aunt will hurt Chai Xiu'e?"

When she said this, she was not afraid at all that Lu Wenhui would tell the eldest wife who knew whose mother, and the person who knew the eldest wife best in this world must be Lu Wenhui himself.

Sure enough, the more Lu Wenhui listened, his face became more solemn, and his brows became more and more wrinkled, until finally they became several unfathomable ravines.

"So, if you are not sure of giving Chai Xiu'e happiness, I advise you...I advise you to give up early." Lu Shuyi finally said these words.

For some people, she doesn't care about family status, such as the Yang family, but for some people, she attaches great importance to these invisible and intangible names, such as the eldest wife.

She really didn't want to see the eldest wife do something to hurt Chai Xiu'e, so she persuaded her if she could, and made other plans if she couldn't.

The night gradually became silent, and occasionally the cold wind rolled up the snowflakes on the tiles and fell on Lu Wenhui's shoulders.

He pursed his lips, and after a long time raised his eyes and said, "You...you also think it's impossible for me and Miss Chai?"

"Obviously, isn't it?" Lu Shuyi blinked.

Lu Wenhui looked unwilling, and let out a long breath: "But third sister, do you know that I fell in love with Chai Xiu'e at first sight, I really liked it at first sight." He stretched out his hand Flicking the skirt of the shirt a little, he said sadly: "You also know that I have never had a good impression of that girl, but Chai Xiu'e is different. I just took a look at her and felt that she was very different from other girls, and I also like the Xiaojiabiyu temperament in her."

As soon as Chai Xiu'e was mentioned, Lu Wenhui's eyes were filled with tenderness, as if he had endless words to say.

Especially the faint flame in his eyes, which looks very happy when it burns.

Lu Shuyi pinched her fingers. If Lu Wenhui could marry Chai Xiu'e, he would feel very happy for the rest of his life...

But reality is reality and cannot be ignored.

"If you are not sure about making Chai Xiu'e happy, I advise you to forget about her." Lu Shuyi's tone was still serious, she looked at the food box and said: "Also, don't give away such things in the future, if it gets to your aunt In my ears, it will really be bad for Chai Xiu'e."

Speaking of being unfavorable to Chai Xiu'e, Lu Wenhui immediately nodded and said: "Okay, I understand, I will never send things indiscriminately in the future."
