Wei Fangya is delicate and pretty on weekdays, and the girl's family can't go out to play all day, who among the maids is not trembling in front of her? It was not easy for Lu Xiaoshu to talk to her a few words, how could he let her go? He said: "You can just stay with me for dinner! Let's light up the lamp after dinner, how nice!"
"Why is this so embarrassing?" Lu Xiaoshu smiled and said, "I've already interrupted lunch, I'd better go back first! Miss, aren't you sleepy? I also want to go back and have a rest!"
Wei Fangya thought for a while and then nodded: "Then... that's fine! You go back first, remember to come over after dinner!"
"Don't worry! I won't forget it!" Lu Xiaoshu agreed with a smile, and left with Du Juan and Hong E.
Back in the guest room, Du Juan and Hong E couldn't hold back their laughter anymore. The two joked with each other, saying that the girl is really amazing, and that Miss Wei, who is so delicate and tricky, can be accepted by the girl with just a few words. Submissive post.
Lu Xiaoshu smiled slightly, and said disapprovingly, "The more unruly a young lady is, the easier it is to coax her. What do you know? If it were Miss Lu San, I'm afraid the only thing we can do is talk about interests with her!"
She said sternly again: "We never go out at night, tonight is a good opportunity, you have looked everywhere carefully. Where are the patrols, how many people, where are they coming and going, pay attention to remember..."
Du Juan and Hong E nodded seriously when they heard the words, "Don't worry, girl, servants will remember!"
The three masters and servants all rested in order to recharge their energy, and they didn't get up until close to dinner.
Unexpectedly, Wei Fangya also specially sent a woman to bring over two dishes, one steamed pork ribs with lotus leaf powder, and one with green snail shrimp.
Lu Xiaoshu smiled and thanked for accepting it, and gave the old woman a reward. The mother-in-law went with a smile.
After dinner, when it was dark, Lu Xiaoshu took Dujuan and Honge out. As expected, the patrolling guards in Hou's mansion were already in place, which shows how tightly guarded the mansion was by Marquis Wu Gong, and he didn't leave any gaps for anyone.
But this is just right, otherwise they would have no chance to meet.
As usual, someone blocked the way, but when he heard that it was invited by the eldest lady, he politely stepped aside. Lu Xiaoshu thanked him with a smile, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: this is his own, no matter how much the little uncle is trusted and reused by martial arts masters, he can't compare to the brand of a proud young lady!
I'm afraid that the little uncle was often excluded and wronged in this Hou's mansion...
Lu Xiaoshu's master and servant deliberately took a few wrong turns, bumped into several groups of patrolling people, and then hurriedly arrived at Wei Fangya's residence.
"Why are you here now? I've been waiting for a long time!" Wei Fangya couldn't help complaining.
Lu Xiaoshu hurriedly apologized with a smile, and said embarrassedly: "The Hou's mansion is really too big, and it was night again, we took the wrong way, and finally arrived in time, miss, don't be angry! We won't make mistakes next time !"
Wei Fangya's face calmed down, she nodded and said: "That's true, our house is big, let alone you, those servants who have just entered the house, it will take a long time to know the whole way! Let's put the Kongming lantern Let it go!"
Wei Fangya's eyes sparkled as she spoke.
Lu Xiaoshu laughed and said, "It's best to put the Kongming lanterns by the lake, miss, why don't we go to the lakeside!"
"Okay! Then go to the lakeside! It's cooler in this weather!" Wei Fangya immediately agreed with a smile.
So a group of people shuttled from her residence to the lakeside.
He ordered the two servant girls to hold the Kongming lantern, and Lu Xiaoshu lit the candle below. As the candle burned, after a while, I saw the Kongming lantern that looked like a big shriveled cloth bag gradually inflate, and the thin red gauze was covered by the candlelight, which was very beautiful.
Wei Fangya couldn't help showing joy on her face, her brows and eyes stretched.
"Okay, let go!" Lu Xiaoshu signaled the two girls to let go, and he gently lifted the Kongming lantern. After a while, he saw the lantern shaking slightly, and as she let go of her hand, it fluttered. slowly lifted off.
"It's flying! Lu Zheng, look, it's really flying!" Wei Fangya was very happy, she couldn't help looking up and clapping her hands and laughing happily.
The maids had never seen anything like this before, and couldn't help laughing, discussing in whispers.
Lu Xiaoshu looked up at the Kongming Lantern as it rose higher and higher with a smile on his face.
The shadowy red lamp floated towards the lake along the wind, with the dark blue night sky above and the dark lake water below, the up and down complement each other, the light with the red shadow is extraordinarily beautiful.
When everyone was laughing and praising, unexpectedly, a gust of wind passed by, the Kongming lantern suddenly tilted, and the candle below was tilted to the side. The whole lantern lost its balance and fell obliquely into the lake. middle.
Everyone was taken aback and looked at each other.
"How could this happen!" Wei Fangya was greatly disappointed.
"It's been too long, so I'm really unfamiliar with my skills!" Lu Xiaoshu said embarrassingly: "I'm really sorry for disappointing the miss! How about we try two more tomorrow? Try a few more times, It will always work!"
Wei Fangya sighed and said sullenly: "That's the only way to go! Go to my place early tomorrow, let's make a few more!"
Lu Xiaoshu agreed with a smile, sent Wei Fangya back, and returned to the guest room.
Lu Xiaoshu secretly curled his lips into a smile, how could she finish things all at once? If you don't do it a few times, where is the chance to go out
The three masters and servants returned to the guest room, briefly described the patrol situation they saw at night, and Du Juan and Honge had a general idea, so they quietly went out to spy for a while, and then turned off the lights and rested.
It was not until the third night that the Kongming Lanterns were successfully released. The lanterns fluttered on the lake, like moving stars, reflecting waves with halos on the lake, which was a rare sight.
The next night, those fireflies also grew up. Lu Xiaoshu put them in a gauze bag and tied them loosely under the Kongming lantern. The tied gauze bag was loosened naturally, and fireflies flew out of it one by one, scattered around the Kongming Lantern State, and the streamers were dancing, very beautiful.
Everyone laughed and praised, and Wei Fangya was even more enthusiastic, pulling Lu Xiaoshu talking and laughing, and returning after having a good time.
After a few days of investigation, Du Juan and Hong'e knew more than half of the patrol routes in the mansion and the time for shift change, and the two became more courageous. Thinking that the news would be handed out tomorrow, he broke his heart and decided to explore the forbidden area of the Hou Mansion.
I don't think so, the forbidden area of the Hou Mansion is indeed extraordinary. Although they easily avoided the patrol team in the ordinary place, the closer they got to the forbidden area, the more difficult it was. .
The two were secretly startled, claiming that they had gone the wrong way and kept begging for mercy. When the leader learned that they were the maids of the guests invited by Mr. An, he didn't make things difficult for them, but handed them over to Marquis Marquis.
Marquis Marquis Marquis interrogated him personally, and also learned that Lu Xiaoshu had supper at his sister's place, and asked the two girls to go back to get the cloak. Smelling the faint smell of alcohol on them again, Marquis Hou Shizi believed it for a moment, thought for a moment with a sullen face, and ordered them to be sent back.
After returning to the guest room, Lu Xiaoshu was shocked when he learned of this, he gave the two of them a hard look, and taught them a lesson.
Martial Arts Hou Shizi is not stupid, how can he trust them so easily? I'm afraid that the guest room is already being watched by someone at this moment, even if Lu Xiaoshu lectures them, he doesn't dare to lecture them privately, he just keeps yelling "No rules, embarrass me!", "Miss Wei managed to treat me better, and you two This kind of thing happened!", "I'm so mad!" and so on.
Du Juan and Hong E were also secretly annoyed, they didn't expect to make such a big mistake, so they also cooperated with Lu Xiaoshu, knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty, begging her for forgiveness.
Lu Xiaoshu was so angry that he ordered her two to kneel outside for the whole night.
The next day, Mrs. Wu Gonghou invited Lu Xiaoshu to talk.
Although Mrs. Wu Gonghou had a faint smile on her face, her tone was soft and soft, and she chatted with Lu Xiaoshu leisurely about the family affairs. But quietly interrogated her hometown, mountains and rivers, human customs and so on.
Fortunately, Lu Xiaoshu didn't lie about this point, he answered with ease, and when he talked about his hometown, his eyes lit up with great interest, as if he didn't know that Mrs. Marquis Marquis was taking the opportunity to test him.
Speaking of the passing away mother and the past, I still shed tears sadly. Now Mrs. Marquis Wugong couldn't ask any more questions, instead she smiled and comforted her, and sighed with her once.
Lu Xiaoshu wiped away his tears gratefully, and brought up what happened last night with great shame, "Those two dead girls are so useless! Miss kindly rewarded them with a drink, who knows that if you are greedy for a drink, you will feel dizzy after a little blowing." Walking around without distinguishing between southeast and northwest! It was a great luck not to kill them as assassins yesterday! I have caused trouble for the family, and I really, really— really want to be ashamed to live here! Uncle An is very kind, who Knowing that those two girls caused this kind of thing, it's all because of my lax discipline..."
"It's wrong for men to drink alcohol, let alone girls! It's not good to spread your reputation, and I'm afraid it will ruin your reputation! I'm relying on the old and selling the old to say these words, Miss Lu, don't blame me for talking too much! This From now on, it's time to take care of it!" Mrs. Wu Gonghou said.
"Ma'am is right. Ma'am is willing to say that, so it is for my own good! Otherwise, how could anyone say that! I am grateful, so how can I blame Madam? I really don't know what to do! Ma'am, you are a kind person." !” Lu Xiaoshu said hastily.
Mrs. Marquis Wugong smiled slightly, but before she spoke, she heard a nurse next to her suddenly laughing and said: "In that case, Miss Lu might as well hand over those two maids to our wife for a few days, it will definitely be of great benefit. There will be no mistakes in doing things in the future!"
