Lu Xiaoshu was both helpless and funny, looked at Nanny Hua, and said: "Mother, you are overthinking! My daughter rejected the Crown Princess at that time, this is simply impossible! My daughter told her mother that it is Let the mother know in her heart, if she asks the mother to talk about this matter, the mother can just push it to the father, and just say that everything in the family is up to the father! If you are not married and obey your husband, she can't control it!"
"This child!" Mu Qing and Nanny Hua all laughed.
Nanny Hua laughed and said: "Ma'am, what the second girl said is very true! If the princess really wants to do this, you can just say so! You are a person who will not refuse, but we really can't control this matter! How many times has the third girl harmed the second girl, Madam has forgotten? Why do you want to offend the Li family for her! Alas, I thought that our house would finally stop now, but I didn't expect it to involve outside the house !"
"Someone just won't stop, what can we do!" Lu Xiaoshu smiled lightly, and said, "Let her make trouble, sooner or later she will make trouble to death and she'll be fine!"
"That's not it!" Nanny Hua nodded in agreement.
Lu Xiaoshu laughed and said: "When Dad comes back, Mother, please don't forget to tell Dad, so that he will know what to do. If Mother forgets, remember to remind Aunt Hua!"
"Yes, Second Miss!" Nanny Hua hurriedly agreed.
Mu Qing smiled and said: "Don't worry, I heard that Lu Xiang's son has already entered the capital today, and the official department has to receive it first. Your father may come back late tonight! It won't be too late for me to tell him tomorrow." !"
"Lu Xiang?" Lu Xiaoshu's eyes lit up, he was surprised and delighted, and said happily: "Really? It's the son of the former Prime Minister Lu, the son of Lu Xiang who testified about the injustice of the backer king?"
Mu Qing was taken aback for a moment, and then came to her senses why she was so happy, her face sank two points, she frowned and reprimanded: "What does this have to do with you? Look at you!"
Lu Xiaoshu didn't care about this with her, he was just happy for Zhou Shizhi in his heart, secretly thinking that he could finally live this year with peace of mind!
Seeing that although she was silent, Mu Qing couldn't help sighing inwardly when she saw that her expression, that expression was so upbeat and upbeat: No girl is allowed to stay!
What's more, she didn't grow up by her side, if she wanted to stay, she couldn't...
Seeing this, Madam Hua quickly smoothed things over with a smile. It was not good for Mu Qing to be so angry with her daughter, so she had to temporarily expose it.
After dinner, Lu Xiaoshu dawdled and refused to go back to rest, pretending to do needlework with Qiu'er, Qiqiao and the others.
Seeing her like that, Mu Qing knew that she must have made up her mind to wait for her father to come back so that she could ask about Lu Xiang's son, but it was inconvenient to point it out, but she couldn't help feeling secretly depressed.
When the moon was in the middle of the sky, Lu Wenxuan finally came back wrapped in the cold air.
"Father! You are back!" Lu Xiaoshu called his father affectionately, and rushed forward to get the cloak for him.
"Hey, you haven't slept yet!" Lu Wenxuan raised his eyebrows and smiled in surprise, he hurriedly turned away to avoid her hand, and said with a loving smile, "Father's body is very cold, don't come close!"
Mu Qing clasped her hands in front of her, and snorted softly when she saw this: "She's not afraid! She waited for Hou Ye for a long time, even if Hou Ye has a knife on him, she doesn't care right now!"
"Oh?" Lu Wenxuan looked at Mu Qing, then at Lu Xiaoshu, and couldn't help laughing, "What's going on? What's wrong with you two? Xiaoshu, have you made your mother unhappy again?"
"Father, what do you mean by 'again'! I have never made Mother unhappy!" Lu Xiaoshu smiled, then turned to Mu Qing and said with a smile: "When did Mother speak so sharply? Father blamed me. !"
Mu Qing was startled, and sighed helplessly, as if she also felt that it was ridiculous to be angry with her daughter, so she slowed down her voice and said softly: "Okay, your father just came back, you should be quiet for a while! Let him eat first! "
After saying that, he ordered someone to come in with hot water to wash his face and hands, and ordered Qiqiao to go to the small kitchen to bring out the warm food.
Lu Wenxuan smiled and said: "You don't have to be busy, I used it with my colleagues in the yamen, just make a pot of hot tea!" As he said that, he wanted to go into the back room to change clothes.
Lu Xiaoshu hurriedly smiled and said, "I'll make tea for dad!"
Lu Wenxuan burst out laughing, and smiled dotingly at his daughter: "My Xiao Shu is getting more and more sensible, she is really a good daughter of my father! Make a pot of tea for my father, and later my father has good news for you Woolen cloth!"
"Really?" Lu Xiaoshu's eyes lit up, both surprised and delighted.
Mu Qing sighed softly: "You should hurry up and change your clothes! Didn't she just wait for the good news from you, so she stayed here most of the night! How often have you seen her guarding on weekdays!"
"How would she know—" Lu Wenxuan was halfway through speaking, seeing his wife scolding him while his daughter happily ran to make tea, he smiled and went into the room to change clothes.
When he came out to wash his face and hands, Lu Xiaoshu had already brewed tea, poured it for Lu Wenxuan graciously, and said with a smile, "Father, drink the hot tea first, and then talk slowly!"
Lu Wenxuan chuckled and took the tea.
Seeing his daughter blinking and looking at him, he couldn't help but feel a little funny, so he said with a smile: "Xiao Shu, do you know who that Lu Xiang's son is? It's your adoptive father Lu Zhong in Maple Leaf Village!"
"Who?" Lu Xiaoshu was so surprised that he couldn't react for a while.
Mu Qing was also taken aback, and hurriedly said: "What did you say? The son of Prime Minister Lu is, actually, the family we entrusted to Xiaoshu back then!"
"That's not it!" Lu Wenxuan said with emotion: "There is such a coincidence in this world! Who knows that the mountains will not turn around, and there is such a fate!"
"Father!" Lu Xiaoshu came to his senses, this joy was truly exhilarating and reassuring, he couldn't help but hugged Lu Wenxuan's arm and shouted, "Really? Is it true? It's really my father here?"
"You girl, what are you making such a fuss about!" Lu Wenxuan said with a helpless smile, "That's right, it's true that your adoptive father is here, and he can still lie to you!"
"It's really great!" The memories of Maple Leaf Village swept in like a tide, and the turbulence made Lu Xiaoshu almost unable to restrain his excitement. Father is really too kind to her, too good to say enough!
If it wasn't for him back then, my mother might not have been willing to adopt herself!
Over the years, he has always loved him as if he was his own daughter, and he has never been different from his brothers and sisters. Because of his extra mischievousness, he treats himself better and cares more than he treats them...
Back then when I left Maple Leaf Village, I thought it was a matter of a few months, but who knew it would take several years, and I don't know how much he and his mother missed me back then!
Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoshu felt happy and sweet but also a little timid, afraid that his father would find himself to settle accounts.
"Since he is Xiao Shu's adoptive father, he is our great benefactor, why didn't Lord Hou invite him to live in our house!" Mu Qing hurriedly asked with a smile.
"Yes, yes!" Lu Xiaoshu nodded again and again, pouted and said, "I miss him so much, doesn't it mean he doesn't miss me?"
"Of course he misses you," Lu Wenxuan said with a smile, "Tete asked you a lot! He hasn't met the emperor yet, so it's not easy for him to come to live in our residence. When the emperor summons him tomorrow, I will definitely pick him up! By the way, I heard that your adoptive mother and sister are also going to Beijing, and they said that they will be there soon!"
"Really! Are my mother and sister coming too? That's really great!" Lu Xiaoshu suddenly showed a big smile, and he was so happy that he didn't know how to express it.
Lu Wenxuan smiled dotingly, and Mu Qing also smiled. She was naturally grateful to the Lu family couple, but seeing her daughter showing such intimacy to them, she felt a little lost for no reason! Especially when I heard Lu Xiaoshu calling "Mother" but not calling her.
"Tomorrow, I will ask someone to tidy up a yard and come out. When your adoptive parents and sister arrive, they will come and live with us!" Mu Qing said with a smile, "Your father and I are going to thank them very much." !"
"Mom, I don't think so!" Lu Xiaoshu shook his head and said, "My mother—well, my mother, she doesn't like living in other people's homes! Besides, they will definitely be in the capital from now on. It’s not an option to stay here for a long time! Let’s wait until my father—that father comes tomorrow, and then we can discuss what to do!”
Mu Qing stopped insisting, and said with a smile: "That's fine, let's listen to what they have to say! In fact, it's good to live with our parents, and I happen to be more talkative!"
Lu Wenxuan laughed and said, "Xiao Shu is right. Since brother Lu is from a famous family, why would he stay at our house? After the emperor summons him tomorrow, it will be a matter of time before he is appointed an official. It is not convenient for him to live in our house!"
"That's right, dad is more thoughtful!" Lu Xiaoshu nodded and smiled.
Lu Wenxuan chuckled, and said, "Okay, the good news is over, it's getting late, you should go back and rest well! Dress up nicely so that you can meet your adoptive father tomorrow!"
"Okay, Dad!" Lu Xiaoshu happily agreed, and said goodbye to Lu Wenxuan and Mu Qing.
After she left, Mu Qing suddenly felt a little empty in her heart, and unconsciously sighed softly.
"Okay, Ah Qing, don't think too much about it," Lu Wenxuan smiled, held her hand and said warmly, "Xiao Shu's closeness to her adoptive parents shows that our girl has a conscience, and you should be relieved! Besides, now Didn't she come back? In any case, we are her biological parents!"
Mu Qing reluctantly nodded and smiled, and said, "I understand what you're saying, but my heart is—but a little empty! Lord Hou, sometimes I can't help but think, if we didn't send Xiaoshu to Can people be like this... "
"You, the more you think about it, the more confused you become!" Lu Wenxuan frowned slightly, and said: "You should be very clear about the situation back then. If I could, would I be willing to entrust my own flesh and blood to others? We owe this child too much , she has a good relationship with her adoptive parents, we should also be relieved, it means that they treat her well and our girl has never suffered!"
