Everything in the house has been arranged, Lu Wenxuan and Mu Qing had dinner, talked to their children for a while, then ordered hot water to take a bath and prepare to rest.
Seeing that they were free at last, Grandma Liu came in from the outside, and said with a smile to Lu Wenxuan and Mu Qing: "My lord, my lady, do you want me to call the slaves in the yard to see my lord and my lady? It’s so familiar.”
Today, there was a big move in Jingming Hall, but unfortunately they were the ones who did all the dirty work. When the cages were opened to decorate the house, Nanny Hua sent them all out with a few words, and she didn't let them out at all. she sees.
She wanted to pretend to be crazy and foolish enough to not leave, but who knew that the two girls named Du Juan and Hong E were so strong, and they didn't make any sense, so they pushed her out without any explanation! What did you say that the eldest lady doesn't like irrelevant people touching her things, and she doesn't like irrelevant people entering the house randomly!
But is she irrelevant? She is obviously the nanny in charge of Jingmingtang appointed by the second lady!
Grandma Liu was extremely annoyed and hated, but she was not as strong as Du Juan and Hong'e, and those two girls didn't listen to people at all, so she couldn't be as shameless as them and blindly mess around! I had no choice but to retreat resentfully, thinking to myself: wait and see!
Unexpectedly, Mu Qing didn't raise her eyelids when she heard her words, and just said: "You guys go down first! It's been a tiring day today, so let's close the door and go to rest early! Let's talk about other things tomorrow!"
Mu Qing raised her head as she spoke, and said, "The rest of my work here can be done by Madam Hua and the others, you go!"
Grandma Liu had no choice but to back down again.
Back in the room at night, Lu Wenxuan heard his wife talk about how her daughter punished Mrs. Feng and the other three during the day, and laughed so hard that she pounded the bed, and laughed repeatedly: "This girl is so weird, it's really hard for her to figure it out!"
Mu Qing pursed her lips and said with a smile: "No wonder Lu Hua said that she is your daughter at first glance, it is true!"
"She is my daughter! Our daughter!" Lu Wenxuan said as a matter of course, then sighed softly, stretched out his hand to hold his wife in his arms, and sighed: "In the past, in this mansion, you were called There are many grievances, from now on, I want to get back all the same, and I will never let you suffer any grievances again! Xiao Shu is smart, smart, bold and careful, if you have anything to do with her when I am not around Discuss! On the other hand, An'er has a spoiled and mischievous temper. You have to be more careful, don't be provoked or plotted against! Lu Hua and the others are in the outer courtyard, and you can send someone to find them if you have something to do."
Mu Qing nodded and agreed gently, only her body trembled slightly when her husband mentioned her son, and her brows frowned slightly.
Lu Wenxuan lowered his head and smiled, and asked in a low voice, "Are you afraid?"
When Mu Qing heard him ask this question, her nose was sore and she almost shed tears. This is their home, but it is also a cruel and ruthless place. How many people would ask such words in their own home
"I'm not afraid," Mu Qing shook her head lightly, and said softly, "I'm no longer the same Mu Qing as before, my husband, I won't let you worry about me and become your burden."
Lu Wenxuan smiled and said: "I never thought you were a burden, and also, worrying about your mother and daughter, I am willing to do so!"
Facing his dark and crystal clear eyes, Mu Qing only felt her heart skip a beat and her face was slightly hot, she couldn't help lowering her eyes and smiling, shy and coquettish.
Lu Wenxuan also chuckled lowly. After so many years, she is still so shy and gentle.
But such a woman who is as gentle as the flowers in the warm room, as if she could be blown away with a bigger breath, is by his side without hesitation, sharing joys and sorrows, going through life and death, and facing the unknown and unpredictable together In the future, always be gentle and affectionate, until now...
Besides, the three of the unlucky Mrs. Feng returned to Jingfangtang. Seeing the panic of the three of them, Mrs. Qin opened her eyes wide and was speechless for a while.
"This, this is, what are you doing! How did you make such a ghostly look!" Qin's tone and expression were like seeing a ghost.
"Second Madam..." Granny Feng called out, and the three of them still felt aggrieved!
At first, I thought it was an errand to show my face. I thought that if I went there as a special agent of the second lady, the eldest lady would definitely look at her differently, and would definitely follow their advice and let them do the main work. Who knows—the eldest lady hardly said anything. A little girl and a brat got cleaned up!
"That's enough, that's enough!" Qin didn't have the heart to ask them why they turned into this appearance, except that they disliked their dirty bodies and looked at their eyes with disgust.
What she cared about was what she explained, so she asked with bright eyes: "How is it? What can you see?"
Are their families rich? Have you seen anything particularly valuable
The two daughters-in-law lowered their heads and remained silent, basically acting as a foil—at a time like this, Mother Feng should naturally be the one to speak. How could they steal the limelight from Mother Feng
Nanny Feng had no choice but to bite the bullet and stammer: "Second madam, old slave, old slave is incompetent! Second madam please forgive me!" Kneeling down while speaking.
The two daughters-in-law had to kneel down too.
"How do you say that?" Qin's eyes widened.
After listening to Mrs. Feng's faltering and stammering, Qin was almost so angry that she couldn't bear it, and cursed bitterly: "Idiots! One or two are idiots! Even such a small matter can't be done well. !"
Mrs. Feng felt aggrieved in her heart, but she knew Qin's disposition, the more she defended, the greater the crime, it would be better to admit her mistake and intercede, so she blamed herself so much that she almost burst into tears!
"You guys are so embarrassing!" Qin complained for a while and patted the coffee table: "I was played around by a little girl! Didn't my sister-in-law say a word?"
This is the best time to get rid of the responsibility, Granny Feng immediately shook her head and said: "No, Da Furen didn't say a word, just let the Second Miss do this!"
"real?"
"real!"
"I can't..." Mrs. Qin murmured, "My sister-in-law is the most gentle and kind person, how could it be..."
"This old slave dare not lie to the second madam!" Mrs. Feng said quickly: "Second madam, think about it, the first madam has been away from home with the elder for so many years and has come back, can she still not change at all? Look at the old slave, she has no face. She looks gentle and kind, but who knows how much heart is in her belly! Maybe, Second Miss, this is all instigated by her! Second lady, you have to be careful!"
Mrs. Feng's heart brightened, and she suddenly gained some confidence: it's a credit for revealing the temper of the eldest lady...
After hearing this, Qin really became thoughtful.
"Sister-in-law just let that girl and sister torment you all day without saying a word?" Qin suddenly raised her head again.
"That's not it!" This is an opportunity to complain about grievances and hard work, and you can't miss it. Granny Feng said with a sad face: "Madam pretended to bow her head and sip tea, pretending that she didn't hear anything, and then she simply said that she was tired and went back to the house to rest. Well, let the servants take good care of the second young lady and the third young master..."
"Too much deceit!" Qin slapped the plum blossom table next to her, and said bitterly, "I never thought that sister-in-law would become so hateful!"
"That's not it!" said Mrs. Feng, "It's hard to guard against people like this, who are innocent and harmless on the surface, but soaked in bad water in their bones. Second Madam, you must be more careful, and don't fall into her schemes!"
"Hmph!" Qin Shi sneered, and proudly said: "This mansion is full of our people, and she still wants to turn the sky upside down! That's enough, you guys hurry up and clean it up, make it look like this, I've lost all my old face, and I'm not ashamed!" He raised his eyebrows in vain and yelled: "Hurry up and get out of here, don't stand on my ground!"
Mrs. Feng and the two daughters-in-law knew in their hearts that they had escaped a catastrophe, so they hurriedly thanked En and retreated.
Qin's eyes stared at the front seriously, flashing slightly from time to time, the more he thought about it, the more he felt overwhelmed. Mu Qing dare not give her face! How dare she!
She couldn't help but recall that more than ten years ago, she was a woman as gentle as water, no matter what others said, she always looked submissive, respectful and humble, and she actually dared to resist!
Qin thought of the change of her eldest uncle mentioned by her husband again, and felt even more uneasy: Could it be that Mu Qing has also become like that? If this is the case, how long can she manage this family
No, no! The middle prize in this mansion must be hers! It must be in her hands!
Although the current Lu Mansion is actually almost exhausted, and the annual harvest is barely enough, but the head of the family can still benefit from it!
Mosquito legs are also meat!
Something is better than nothing!
"Mother," Lu Yiqing came out from behind the green gauze closet at some point, gently waving the butterfly fan in her hand and said with a smile, "It seems that the second and third cousins are quite interesting people! "
Mrs. Qin looked at her, her heart moved, and she said with a smile: "No way! From now on, you need to get closer to them! They just came back, so they must have brought some savagery from the outside, so you have to go and walk around , Teach them more! Be more polite, don’t go out and make jokes in other people’s homes, and lose the dignity of your uncle, the Marquis, and the Lu family!"
Qin's spirit lifted, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became a little more. Mrs. Feng did not disgrace her mission, and brought back some useful information to her no matter what. As for other things, don't rush, you can take your time! Doesn't she have a good daughter? Qing'er has always been careful and intelligent, as long as she walks around more often, she can always find out what she should know!
"Don't worry, mother, I will!" Lu Yiqing nodded slightly, smiling reservedly. But she didn't know that when she met Lu Xiaoshu the next day, her reservedness would be gone! Of course, the plan to pretend to be a lady in front of Lu Xiaoshu and perform a scene of sisterly love will be completely ruined!
