"I don't dare to do it, but it's just a matter of chance!" Mr. Zhong said with a smile when he heard Lu Xiaoshu say that.
By chance? After hearing this, Lu Xiaoshu couldn't help but look at him more and his eyes flickered.
He said this very smoothly, and he himself didn't feel that there was anything wrong. But when Lu Xiaoshu heard it, he secretly wondered: Could it be that they met before? know? unlikely...
The fourth younger sister never went out alone, and the third aunt refused to let her go out alone. How could she meet a strange man
Although Lu Xiaoshu was hesitant in his heart, it was naturally inconvenient to ask right now, so he smiled and thanked him a few more times.
Mr. Zhong smiled and said: "It's getting late, since the Fourth Miss Lu has already returned home, I will take my leave!"
"Young Master Zhong, go slowly!" Lu Xiaoshu nodded and smiled at him.
At this moment, Mao's gust of wind rushed in from the outside, just in time to hear these two conversations between Lu Xiaoshu and Zhong Yulou, he suddenly lost his temper, shouted "slow down!" and rushed to Zhong Yulou, staring at him He said sharply, "Who the hell are you? What is the purpose of coming to our house!"
Zhong Yulou was about to leave, when suddenly a woman rushed forward and asked such a sentence aggressively and thoughtlessly, he was stunned for a while, a little confused.
Lu Xiaoshu gave Lu Yihui a sympathetic look, and silently took two small steps back. The third aunt is here, it seems that there is nothing wrong with her...
Zhong Yulou was dumbfounded, and subconsciously looked at Lu Yihui, the only person he was familiar with.
"Where are you looking!" Seeing this, Mao became even angrier, and sternly said, "Is my girl also someone you can look at casually? At first glance, she looks like a thing clinging to power! Let me tell you, don't think that you saved my girl. You are the benefactor of the government! Who knows what crooked ideas you have in your heart!"
Zhong Yulou couldn't help but change color, and anger suddenly arose in his heart.
He was about to ask who this person is? Lu Yihui's words hit him hard.
Lu Yihui cried out in pain and shame, "Mom!"
Zhong Yulou felt his mind go blank, and swallowed what he wanted to say again.
When Lu Yihui saw her mother rushing up and scolding her without thinking, she felt angry, anxious, ashamed and annoyed, she was ashamed.
Listening to her talking more and more, she finally couldn't listen anymore, so she begged: "Mother, please stop talking! Don't say it, please! Mother, can we talk about it when we go back?"
"Shut up!" Mao was so angry that he had nowhere to vent his anger, and was annoyed in his heart. He glared at Lu Yihui and scolded: "You still have the face to say it! Ask such a thing to send you back, if it was me, I would I'm so ashamed, you actually help him speak! Really, really—"
If it wasn't for this being her own daughter, she would have scolded "shameless!"
But although she didn't scold those words, everyone heard it. Lu Yihui felt even more ashamed, and said with tears: "Mother! What are you doing! I lost my way and twisted my foot again. If it wasn't for When I meet Mr. Zhong, I—"
"Mr. Zhong and Mr. Gu, you are so shameless for being so affectionate!" Mrs. Mao became more and more annoyed, and said angrily, "You are a girl who has not left the court, do you know that this is a matter of fame! If people find out about this, how will you get married in the future!"
Mrs. Mao was extremely angry. She was looking forward to her daughter's well-being, and wanted to find a good marriage for her, but she didn't expect to end up in this!
She could tell at a glance that Mr. Zhong was by no means a rich and powerful family - not even with this clothes alone, let alone going out without even a follower!
She became sad, and said again: "What's wrong with getting lost? What's wrong with twisting your feet? Won't you wait there? You are the niece of Changping Hou's direct relative. Xin, can you help me! You, you asked such a person to send it back, what is going on! I think your brain is kicked by a donkey, and you want to piss me off!"
In front of Zhong Yulou, Lu Yihui felt extremely ashamed, she couldn't help crying with her head down, she was really embarrassed!
Zhong Yulou was also dumbfounded: Isn't this scolding him? Why are you scolding and scolding Miss Shang Lu Si? I didn't expect Miss Lu Si to be so gentle and shy, but to have such a shrew-like mother!
If you want to talk about splashing, just splash it on others! She can do that to her daughter too!
Seeing Lu Yihui crying sadly, Zhong Yulou couldn't help feeling hot: he would rather the Mao family scolded him.
"Mrs. Lu," Zhong Yulou couldn't listen anymore, and couldn't help but cupped his hands and said, "I'm just sending Miss Lu back home, and I have a clean relationship with Miss Lu! And, please rest assured, this matter can be done with me. I swear to God, I will never say a word to anyone, and it will never affect Miss Lu's reputation! It's getting late, if I bother you, I will leave!"
"You said it so lightly!" Mao was still angry, and sneered: "Who can say generous words, didn't you just swear? Don't just say and do it, but let me see it in front of me." !"
"Mother..." Lu Yihui was even more embarrassed.
"Shut up!" Mao stared at him, turned his head and still forced Zhong Yulou: "Swear!"
Zhong Yulou was trembling with anger, but after glancing at Lu Yihui, who was so pitiful and caught in a dilemma, his heart softened again, so he raised his hands, palms facing the sky, and said coldly: "I, Zhong Yulou, swear here that I will send Lu Yihui off tonight. The fourth girl will never mention the matter of returning to the mansion to anyone! If you violate this oath, the sky will be struck by lightning! Mrs. Lu, is this okay!"
Mao snorted. Seeing that Zhong Yulou had sworn that he would not tell this matter, he was more than half relieved. But after thinking about it, I couldn't help but said angrily, "Of course you dare to swear! How many people have seen you all the way back..."
Zhong Yulou was so angry with her that he almost didn't turn around, he spread his hands helplessly, and sighed: "There is nothing to do! Although the lights are dark, I don't know who saw me, let alone block it." People's mouth. Fortunately, those idlers may not know Miss Lu Fourth, and there is almost no chance for Miss Lu Fourth to see them again in the future, Madam can rest assured!"
"You!" Mao choked him so that he couldn't speak.
Lu Xiaoshu bit his lip to hold back his smile. She couldn't help but take another look at Zhong Yulou, she thought to herself that this person is quite interesting, not like ordinary nerds! If the fourth younger sister really married him, she would definitely not be bullied!
Unfortunately, it is absolutely impossible for the third aunt to agree.
"If Madam Lu has nothing else to do, I will take my leave!" Zhong Yulou said politely.
Mao stared at him, really speechless.
"Du Juan, send Mr. Zhong out!" Lu Xiaoshu ordered upon seeing this, and winked at Du Juan.
Du Juan bowed to answer "Yes", raised his hand and said, "Young Master Zhong, please!"
Zhong Yulou really wanted to take another look at Lu Yihui, but when he thought about how her mother might teach her a lesson after he left, he held back. He nodded immediately and followed Du Juan out.
Zhong Yulou couldn't help feeling secretly disappointed.
Tonight, when he recognized that the panic-stricken girl in the crowd was the girl he met when he lost his way in the valley that day, the surprise in his heart was indescribable.
For the first time, he really felt what "fate" is, and believed that he and her were fate.
Her panic and helplessness fell into his eyes, which made his heart soften for no reason, and the desire to protect her arose spontaneously.
Almost without thinking, he stepped forward to greet her.
What made him even more happy was that she still remembered him!
He led her out of the crowd, only to find that her foot was sprained. So, he sent her back home.
Thinking of the house she reported to him that day in the mountains, the Marquis of Changping, he couldn't help but feel a sense of loss.
Hou's family is like the sea. Although his family has a lot of fertile land, although his life is very rich, compared with the Hou's mansion, it is simply incomparable. The housekeeper of the Hou Mansion has a wealthier family than theirs, right
But by coincidence, there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart.
She is so gentle and kind, presumably her parents are also reasonable and kind people? Maybe...for the sake of his sincerity, would he be willing to fulfill them
He was secretly lucky in his heart, fortunately she was not Changping Hou's first daughter, but just a niece, dare not, he didn't even dare to think about it.
But he didn't expect that the reality was far from what he had imagined!
Her mother, don't say anything kind or reasonable! She is simply a shrew, and an unreasonable shrew! He didn't want to belittle her mother, but that was the image in his mind.
Zhong Yulou looked calm, and followed Du Juan towards the door.
Leaving step by step, his heart felt a little sore: From now on, he will never see her again, right? They can't have a future, he gave up the moment he saw her mother!
In the end, fate has only become a fate without a fate...
Zhong Yulou smiled wryly and shook his head slightly. After all, what I thought was too naive.
"Master Zhong, please!" Du Juan's words brought Zhong Yulou back to his senses.
Du Juan smiled and said to him: "Third Madam is also very concerned, Mr. Zhong, please don't think about it! Our Master Hou and Madam Hou are both very good people, and the relationship between Second Miss and Fourth Miss is also very good. The second girl also called me to thank Mr. Zhong!"
Zhong Yulou was startled, a little confused, and stared at Du Juan in a daze.
Du Juan gave a "puchi" smile early, turned and left.
The corners of Zhong Yulou's lips curled up slightly unconsciously, and two gleams of hope suddenly appeared in his heart.
After Zhong Yulou left, Lu Wenshi came out from the side. Firstly, even he felt a little embarrassed when his wife said that about him, so he hid away; secondly, if Zhong Yulou pestered him to ask him to thank him or promise something, it was inconvenient for him to say a lot of things, so it was better not to see him Come clean.
