Doting on concubines and destroying wives?I am no longer the mistress of Houmen!

Chapter 46

"Guest from the house, why are you so happy?"

Ping Ye was grinning, and Lin Yunwan asked her, and she heard Ping Ye say: "A guest is here, and the guest wants to give Madam a greeting gift."

Tao Ye smiled and asked: "Are you really doing this? Why are your eyelids so shallow?"

Ping Ye stuck out her tongue: "It's just that I feel bored. There are guests at home, and it's lively. It's better than watching that every day."

She pointed to the direction where Ge Baoer lived.

Lin Yunwan smiled faintly: "Don't be too happy, guests may not be easy to get along with."

Ping Ye looked curious: "Madam, you have never been with the Xia family, how do you know they are not easy to get along with?"

How could she not get along with it.

In the previous life, Lu Jia only came to live for a short period of time, and her son and brother Qing almost turned the house upside down.What happened was not small.They almost went to the palace in alarm.

Lin Yunwan explained casually: "When I got married, Aunt Jia came back. You were young at that time and don't remember anything. Even though we only met for a while, you can tell that you are a domineering person."

Pingye didn't believe it: "This is the Lu family, all my aunts are married, not to mention..." She whispered: "I'm still a concubine. How dare I put a big picture in front of you!"

But after hearing what Lin Yunwan said, she was already vigilant in her heart, and she didn't dare to take it lightly.

Arrived at Yushou Hall.

Lin Yunwan brought two servant girls in to pay her respects: "Old lady, mother-in-law."

The small hall was already full of guests, and beside Mrs. Lu sat a younger old lady. She was slightly thinner than Mrs. Lu, with slender cheeks and a very serious look.

She is Lu Jia's mother-in-law, Mrs. Xia.

"Yun Wan, come quickly and meet Mrs. Xia."

Mrs. Lu waved at Lin Yunwan, and she walked over to say hello: "Your junior has met Mrs. Xia."

With such a serious face on Mrs. Xia's face, she actually laughed, took Lin Yunwan's hand, and said affectionately: "My good nephew and daughter-in-law, I often hear your aunt talk about you at home, now it seems that you are really a good person. "

Lin Yunwan replied politely: "It's my aunt who praised me absurdly."

Mrs. Xia gave her a pair of jadeite bracelets, the head of the water was very good, the light from the flower window shone through, making the bracelets as clear as water.

"This... is too precious."

Lin Yunwan didn't want to accept it, and was about to go back, Mrs. Xia refused to let her take the bracelet from her wrist, held her hand tightly, and said: "Lin's Qingliu, I heard it in Yudi, your father's name is even more It's like thunder. The old man of our family is full of praise for your father. If you don't accept it, you will look down on my Xia family."

It turned out that it was for his father's reputation.

Lin Yunwan's kindness was hard to give up, so she took a pair of bracelets, and then slowly recalled that not only the Xia family was a scholarly family, but Mrs. Xia herself came from a farming and studying family. Although she was married to the Houfu, she admired the Qingliu family.

So Mrs. Xia looked at her alone.

"The old lady really loves Yun Wan."

Lu Jia came from behind, her long black hair tied into a woman's bun, her eyes were sharp, she looked a bit like Marquis Wu Ding.

But his personality is a bit narrow, what he said seems to be jealous.

Mrs. Xia's face was slightly gloomy, and she didn't say anything.

After all, in the Lu family, she still had to take care of Lu Jia's face.

"Auntie."

Lin Yunwan turned sideways and blessed her body.

Lu Jia smiled and said, "This is my meeting gift, not as precious as my old lady's. Brother and sister, you don't need to be too frivolous."

Lin Yunwan asked the girl to take the brocade box, and said, "How could it be? It's all in my aunt's mind that the gift is light and heavy, and the heart is only precious and not frivolous."

Lu Jia also laughed: "It's no wonder my old lady values ​​younger siblings, younger siblings are thoughtful when speaking."

"Okay, be clean in front of the elders, don't always talk."

Mrs. Xia gave Lu Jia a heavy look.

Lin Yunwan looked up, if Mrs. Xia usually only looked serious, but now she was a little mean, with an indescribable sternness in her eyes.

Compared with her mother-in-law's fierceness, Lu Jia's is completely insignificant.

"……Yes."

Lu Jia stepped back listlessly, and stood quietly with his sisters-in-law and nieces, not daring to interrupt.

Mrs. Lu felt very uncomfortable.

Wei Shi also felt uncomfortable.

This is the Lu family, what does it mean to train their girls!

But there is nothing wrong with people scolding their daughter-in-law, and their natal family can't say anything.

"Why don't you see Mr. Xia?"

Mrs. Lu suddenly asked.

Mrs. Xia said: "He is an unmarried man, it is not good to let him into the inner courtyard."

Mrs. Lu smiled and said: "We are all a family. It's okay for relatives to recognize each other when they meet."

"Then I will ask him to greet the old lady next time."

Mrs. Xia agreed with a smile, and then asked, "Why don't you see your son? But you don't have time today?"

Her youngest son is a foreigner, but Lu Zhengliu is not.

Logically speaking, when elder sister comes home, he should come.

Mrs. Lu vaguely said: "I have official business, but I should be back."

She winked at Yan's mother.

Yan's mother is also not good at talking. She has already sent someone to spread the word to Lu Zheng. Why hasn't the son come at this time?

Should not be ah.

Everyone was talking and laughing in the room, and Yan's mother quietly went out to find Lu Zhengliu in person.

Although she came out to do errands, Yan's mother was really relieved.

She muttered: "...I've never seen such a difficult old lady." Mrs. Xia looked very disciplined and not easy to mess with.She felt out of breath standing there, not to mention what Aunt Jia's life was like at Xia's house.

Yan's mother searched around, but couldn't find Lu Zhengliu.

Fortunately, when she returned to Yushou Hall, the members of the Xia family had already settled down in the guest courtyard, but she heard a burst of crying.

Lu Jia cried inside: "Madam, mother... Jiaer finally came back to see you."

Mrs. Lu also felt distressed, after all, she was the only lady in the house, and they loved her like pearls and treasures back then.

Wei Shi persuaded: "Okay, don't cry now. Don't go back and ask your mother-in-law to see and say you are wrong."

Lu Jia wiped away tears.

Mrs. Lu also complained a few words: "Your mother-in-law is too respectful of rules and despises human feelings. No matter how you are, you are also the eldest daughter of our Lu family. If you scold you like this in front of us, you really don't take the Lu family seriously. inside."

Don't dare to spread this word.

Lu Jia quickly defended her mother-in-law: "My mother-in-law is not that kind of person. Although my father-in-law is expected to be promoted to the cabinet in the future, the mother-in-law will not look down on our Lu family just because of this. .”

"Forget it, I've been a daughter-in-law for so many years, and I'm used to it."

She wiped away tears for herself.

"Cabinet? Is your father-in-law really able to join the cabinet?"

Mrs. Lu became excited all of a sudden.

Speaking of this, Lu Jia was also proud. She smiled and said, "Tell you and mother quietly, although my father-in-law is not a high-ranking person, he is a confidant of an adult. This time he has made great achievements in public affairs, and he just waited for him when he came back." Promoted. Within three years, there will be a place for my father-in-law in Beijing."

"If one day someone in the cabinet resigns, my father-in-law will get up sooner or later."

"When father-in-law retires, he will be my husband..."

Mrs. Lu's eyes were shining brightly, and she looked more and more at the granddaughter in front of her.

She said to Lu Jia earnestly: "After all, your brother's stay in the guard is not a long-term thing. If we can get to the elder Ge and the emperor step by step, we in Wudinghou's mansion can feel proud."

"Even if you were not at home, you should have heard about the situation our Lu family fell into seven years ago..."

"Jia'er, you can't write two Lu characters in one stroke. The Lu family's decency is your decency. Your younger brother and nephew are promising, and the Xia family dare not treat you so casually and contemptuously."

Lu Jia nodded: "Grandma, I know what you said."

"But grandma, what's going on with the nephew you're talking about? How could the family let my younger brother adopt two children?"

Mrs. Lu dismissed Wei Shi before telling Lu Jia the truth: "Brother Qing, he is your own nephew. From now on, you must make Brother Zhuo and Brother Qing as close as brothers."

Lu Jia was shocked for a while before saying, "Grandma, I understand."

"Grandmother, who is Brother Qing's biological mother?"

Mrs. Lu said, "...he died outside."

Lu Jia nodded and said, "This is a good thing. Even if she doesn't die, you can't let her live."

At night, after Lu Jia left, Mrs. Lu couldn't sleep at all.

"How about that broom star?"

Yan's mother said, "It's all right."

Mrs. Lu sighed: "It would be good if I died of illness." She was worried: "Don't let her make trouble, the Lu family will have to rely on the Xia family in the future."

Yan's mother said: "Even if we don't rely on the Xia family, then our Lu family can't lose its reputation."

After the two of them got together, Mrs. Lu said: "As soon as the Xia family leaves, we will immediately end the dispute between her and Liu. Take good care of her. Before the Xia family leaves, she is not allowed to come out."

"The old slave knows, it's getting late, you should rest."

Mrs. Lu asked again before going to bed: "Where is Zhengliu? Why haven't I seen him all day?"

"The old slave didn't find his son, and I'll come to greet you tomorrow. Go to bed first."

Mrs. Lu lay down and fell asleep.

She didn't know that Lu Zhengliu didn't show up and went to see Ge Bao'er.
