When it was almost dark, Lu Sheng appeared. Ling Wanyue sniffed aggrievedly, and couldn't help the redness of her eyes.
"Brother Lu, Wanyue dared not leave after waiting for three full hours. You are finally here. Wanyue knew that Brother Lu would definitely come."
As soon as Lu Sheng came, Ling Wanyue saw hope and wiped the corners of her eyes with a brocade handkerchief pretending to be weak.
The corner of Lu Sheng's mouth raised a sneer, "I don't know why Miss Ling came to see Lu for something?"
Ling Wanyue blushed, and asked so bluntly, but she was embarrassed to answer, and took a step forward, "Brother Lu, what happened before was actually a misunderstanding, Wanyue didn't deliberately embarrass the Lu family, and what happened to Yiyi this time , Yiyi is innocent, she was young and ignorant, she was frightened at the time, not what those girls said, deliberately embarrassing the sisters of the Liu family."
Lu Sheng's expression was cold, and he watched Ling Wanyue's sophistry, with a hypocritical look, which is really disgusting.
"Brother Lu..." Ling Wanyue was startled by the disgust in Lu Sheng's eyes, and rubbed her eyes, afraid that she might be wrong.
"Miss Ling, what do those things have to do with me? You have found the wrong person. Even if you want to clarify, you should go to the Liu family to clarify." Lu Sheng didn't want to see Ling Wanyue again, and said coldly, "If there is no one else matter, Lu Mou will leave first."
"Brother Lu!" Seeing that Lu Sheng was about to leave, Ling Wanyue rushed forward to grab Lu Sheng's sleeve, but Lu Sheng dodged it, and sat on the ground with her feet twisted and thumped, her face showing pain. color.
"Brother Lu..."
Lu Sheng glanced at Ling Wanyue, "Miss Ling, please respect yourself if you don't want to kiss each other!"
Ling Wanyue looked at Lu Sheng with embarrassment and annoyance, wishing she could find a crack in the ground to get in, her face flushed, but she soon regained her composure.
"Brother Lu, I know you are still angry. Wanyue has already realized that she was wrong. After all, there was a marriage contract between you and me. Wanyue will definitely change her past in the future. Brother Lu, can you just watch what Wanyue has done? Are you marrying a non-human?"
"Brother Lu, Wanyue has delayed you for so many years, and she has always felt guilty..."
"No need!" Lu Sheng said coldly, "The Lu Ling family has no entanglement, and there is no debt. Now that the two families have terminated their engagement, they should not continue to entangle."
"Brother Lu is really so unfeeling?" Ling Wanyue's eyes became dim, and a bright light flashed in her eyes very quickly.
"You and I are strangers, why are we so unfeeling, since we have no destiny, why bother to get along together, Miss Ling's actions today, have you thought about your future situation?" Lu Sheng squinted at Ling Wanyue, "Miss Ling, Please behave!"
Just to make a break, Lu Shenglai pinched the hairpin in his hand into two pieces and left it on the ground.
Seeing that he was determined to make a decision, Ling Wanyue took out a dagger from her bosom and put it against her neck, "Lord Lu, please forgive Wanyue for offending her. Wanyue is also desperate, so she can only do this."
Lu Sheng's eyes darkened, and he squinted at Ling Wanyue, "Miss Ling, Lu has already said just now that the Lu and Ling families have nothing to do with each other, and there is nothing between you and me. Your life and death have nothing to do with me. Dry!"
After all, Lu Sheng turned his head and left. Ling Wanyue watched Lu Sheng leave helplessly, her face twisted in anger, her eyes became fierce, and her whole wrist was trembling.
"Miss, Master Lu is gone."
Without saying a word, Ling Wanyue turned her head and slapped the servant girl, "I'm not blind! Do as I told you earlier!"
The little maid tightly covered her face. Not daring to make a sound, he hurriedly nodded in agreement.
The next day, it was rumored that the hero Lu Sheng saved the beauty and saved Ling Wanyue's life. When Ling Wanyue was sent back to the mansion by the maid, she was covered in injuries and fell into a coma.
After hearing the rumors, Mrs. Lu came to Lu Sheng immediately, "Sheng'er, did you really save that woman Ling Wanyue?"
Lu Sheng put down his official business, looked up at the old lady Lu, "Mother, my son did see Ling Wanyue, but he definitely didn't save her. She directed and acted all of this."
So Lu Sheng told the old lady Lu everything that happened yesterday, and the old lady Lu spat, "Damn! Shameless bitch, who doesn't give up at all, and dares to make up your mind! "
The old lady Lu looked contemptuous, she wished she could go to Ling's house to ask Ling Wanyue for clarification!
"No, this matter cannot be misunderstood by Ms. Xiao. I just want to visit Ms. Xiao, so I can clarify this matter by the way!"
When Lu Sheng heard this, it was rare that he didn't stop Mrs. Lu, and let Mrs. Lu go out with her maid. Lu Sheng glanced at the personal guard, and the guard immediately followed.
At this end, Xiao Yu is holding a silver needle and is learning from Qing Yu.
"Miss has made great progress. She aimed at one direction and shot it. It is not easy to hit three shots. Given time, she will definitely hit every shot." Qingyu praised.
Xiao Concubine was working hard to learn, when she heard this, her eyes were narrowed into slits, and the corners of her mouth were raised, "It's flattering to hit the mark once and for all, I'll be satisfied if I can make half of it."
"Miss, Mrs. Lu is waiting outside the door." Hongxiu said.
Concubine Xiao wiped the sweat from her forehead, looked at the red sleeves, and wondered why she came to the door suddenly because she didn't know Mrs. Lu.
After a while, a little maid came forward, "Miss, Miss Liu and Miss Luo are also here."
Miss Xiao raised her lips and smiled when she heard the words, "What day is it today? Why are there so many people here? Anyone who comes is just a guest, and there is no reason to kick them out. Please enter the hall to entertain me, and I will be there soon."
Originally Luo Jinyan wanted to come alone, but Liu Ziqiong found out about it, so she insisted on coming together. Luo Jinyan couldn't win Liu Ziqiong, so they had to come together.
Luo Jinyan came to thank Xiao Concubine and made some hand-woven brocade bags. A person of Xiao Concubine's status has everything.
Liu Ziqiong and Luo Jinyan were ushered into the living room, Luo Jinyan sat aside with lowered eyebrows, Liu Ziqiong whispered to himself, everything in this room was fine, even the maids were trained to behave properly, it looked like they came from a wealthy family.
Liu Ziqiong picked up the teacup and sipped lightly, the fragrance remained on his lips and teeth, the aftertaste was sweet and full of stamina, Liu Ziqiong couldn't help but taste a few more, secretly sighed that the Xiao family was too luxurious, even the tea for entertaining guests was the best Dahongpao, and he didn't know that his family How powerful is it.
"Cousin, how did you meet Miss Xiao? Why have you never heard about the Xiao family before?"
Liu Ziqiong put down the teacup in his hand, and stretched out his hand to the side of fresh melons, fruits and pastries. These pastries are very sweet when you eat them. Compared with the ones she ate at home, I don't know how much better they are. I couldn't help eating a few more for a while piece.
Luo Jinyan moved her lips. After that day, no one in the Liu family made things difficult for her. Even Mrs. Liu treated her kindly and greeted her with a smile for the first time.
"Cousin, although Miss Xiao and I know each other well, after all, the Luo family's family is in decline, so how can I hurt Miss Xiao?"
Luo Jinyan was telling the truth, but Liu Ziqiong curled her lips in displeasure. After sunset that day, Luo Jinyan obviously lost the closeness to her, and she deliberately concealed her words. To put it bluntly, she was just guarding against her.
Liu Ziqiong came to look for Concubine Xiao, just to know who Concubine Xiao was and what relationship she had with Luo Jinyan.
Just as she was thinking about it, Mrs. Lu walked in, and Liu Ziqiong was startled, "Grandma Lu?"
"Ziqiong, you also come to find Miss Xiao." The old lady Lu smiled, but Liu Ziqiong couldn't smile, and forced a smile that was uglier than crying.
Liu Ziqiong tightly clenched the kerchief in his hand. Lu Sheng publicly said a few days ago that he would not marry him. Today, Mrs. Lu came to look for Concubine Xiao. The meaning was self-evident.
Liu Ziqiong cried because of what happened to Ling Wanyue this morning, and finally calmed down, and met Mrs. Lu again looking for Concubine Xiao.
"Grandmother Lu came to see Miss Xiao?" Liu Ziqiong asked innocently, "Miss Xiao came to Quanzhou for the first time, my cousin and I came to visit specially, and thanked Miss Xiao by the way. That day Ling Yiyi was young and naive and pushed me into the water. The maid next to Miss Xiao saved me."
The old lady Lu nodded when she heard the words, "So that's it, you have a heart, and I heard what happened that day, how is your health?"
Liu Ziqiong shook her head obediently, "Thank you Grandma Lu for your concern, it's all right now."
"Miss Xiao came to Quanzhou for the first time, and you are the same age, so you should be able to chat very well. Make some more friends, which is also to take care of you."
Mrs. Lu didn't directly answer why Liu Ziqiong came to find Miss Xiao. After thinking for a while, she said, "I don't think there is anything wrong with it. I heard that Miss Xiao is heroic in saving lives. I couldn't help being curious for a while, so I came to see the excitement."
Hearing this, the smile on Liu Ziqiong's face faded by three points, she wished she could turn her head and leave immediately, she suffered a lot, but it happened to fulfill Xiao Concubine, Liu Ziqiong felt worse than eating Coptis chinensis.
Luo Jinyan stood up suddenly, "Xiao Jiu."
The two looked along the line of sight, and the old lady Lu's eyes flashed with amazement, and she saw the nobility that could not be concealed all over Xiao Yu's body, and her brows were full of grandeur. of.
She has a beautiful face, and there are two jade bells tied around her slender waist, which jingle when she walks, which is very pleasant to the ears.
Xiao Yu glanced at Luo Jinyan and said hello, "Jinyan, you are here."
The old lady Lu came back to her senses, cleared her throat, "Miss Xiao, I am Lu Sheng's mother."
Miss Xiao nodded towards Old Madam Lu when she heard the words, "Hi Ma'am, I am Xiao Jiu."
The old lady Lu didn't dare to expect concubine Xiao to salute her. Lu Sheng had said that concubine Xiao was of high status, and she was an old lady, how could she be worthy of concubine Xiao's salute.
"Miss Xiao really looks like a water spirit. My old lady has never seen such a beautiful little girl in most of her life."
The old lady Lu was telling the truth, especially when Liu Ziqiong stood in front of Concubine Xiao, she was immediately downgraded. No wonder Lu Sheng didn't want to marry Liu Ziqiong.
Soon, Old Madam Lu frowned. The maidservants in this room were all beautiful and transparent, and behaved politely, while Concubine Xiao didn't wear any ordinary clothes.
The Lu family might not be able to support such a delicate person, so Mrs. Lu was a little worried.
Concubine Xiao smiled, "Thank you Madam for your praise, Xiao Jiu is ashamed not to take it."
"Grandmother Lu is right. Miss Xiao has a beautiful appearance, noble posture, and excellent self-cultivation. Ziqiong is ashamed of herself."
Liu Ziqiong smiled and echoed, as if he was very close to Miss Xiao, "I don't know where Miss Xiao lives. Fortunately, Miss Xiao helped Ziqiong, so Ziqiong was able to survive. Mother said that she must prepare a generous gift as a token of gratitude."
Concubine Xiao raised her lips and smiled, "Don't worry about the effort, and Ms. Liu doesn't have to worry about it."
"Ms. Xiao must be very popular at home. Many people wanted to buy this yard before, but unfortunately the price was too high, which made many people hesitate. There is a natural hot spring inside, which is warm in winter and cool in summer."
Every time Liu Ziqiong uttered a word, the smile on Old Madam Lu's face subsided a bit, Liu Ziqiong said again, "I was lucky enough to visit once before, but today's comparison is completely different, elegant and noble without losing publicity, Miss Xiao has good taste , to build such a beautiful house, compared with the Liu family, Ziqiong really can't do it."
There was a smile on Liu Ziqiong's face, which seemed to others to be praising Concubine Xiao, but Mrs. Lu heard that it was not the case.
All the income from the Lu family's shop is not worth the value of this house. Xiao Concubine eats delicacies from mountains and seas, wears silk and satin, and even uses high-quality goods.
Coupled with the daily expenses, Mrs. Lu made preliminary calculations, and the Lu family simply didn't have enough for Xiao Concubine to squander for a few months.
The wealth and prestige that Lu Sheng had accumulated with great difficulty could not hold Xiao Concubine at all.
Concubine Xiao was beautiful and noble, but it was a pity that the Lu family really had that ability, the old lady Lu couldn't help but retreat, even though the Lu family tried their best to marry Concubine Xiao, besides, the Xiao family might not be able to look up to the Lu family.
