Chapter 127 Zeng Er is in charge
From Lv Erniang to the East Cross Courtyard, Lv Xianger and Chaoxia hid aside and listened to the movement inside. It was not until they heard Lv Hong's words and saw Lv Erniang come out again that the two took a long breath. Lv Xianger and Chaoxia looked at each other and finally felt that the dark clouds focused on the Lu family had slowly dissipated.
When Lv Erniang entered the main room, Lv Xianger and Chaoxia entered Lv Hong's yard. Seeing Lv Hong eating steamed buns and reading a book, Lv Xianger jumped in front of him a few steps and smiled, "Brother, I'm not angry with you. You should thank me well."
Lv Hong put down the book and looked up at Lv Xianger. He smiled and said, "I know you are thinking about it, right?"
"It's still my brother who knows me." Lv Xianger smiled back, pointed to the sky and said with a smile, "The weather is so good today that it is suitable for going out. This is Jingshi. Isn't it a pity not to go and have a look? Don't you think so, Sister Chaoxia?"
"Don't pull me in. I'm not bored at home at all." Chaoxia sat opposite Lv Hong and blinked at Lv Xianger. Lv Xianger didn't expect that Chaoxia would joke. She was stunned and deliberately cried: "Sister Chaoxia, can't I sleep with you tonight? Don't bully me."
"Bah, what are you talking about?" When Chaoxia heard Lu Xianger's ambiguous words, her cheeks were slightly red. When Lv Hong saw this, he quickly waved his hand and said, "Xiang'er, why are you getting more and more naughty? Stop making trouble. Let's go out for a stroll.
"Great. I'll ask my mother if she will go with me. Lu Xianger smiled and ran out of the yard again.
Seeing that she returned to Lv Erniang, she became a child. Chaoxia and Lv Hong shook their heads at the same time, but they were very happy. When Lu Xianger came out of the yard, Chaoxia also got up and said to Lv Hong, "Brother Hong, since you want to go out, you'd better change your clothes. Anyway, this is also the heavenly capital, and Jiangling Mansion is incomparable.
"What Sister Chaoxia said is very true. I'm going to change it now." The clothes on Lu Hong, which have been worn for many years, are indeed very old. Usually, he wears it at home and changes it every time he goes out. Thinking of Lv Xianger's appearance of going out, Lv Hong also got up and went back to his room to change his clothes.
Lv Hong entered the house, and Chaoxia also got up and left the east cross courtyard. But as soon as she reached the door, she saw Lv Xianger coming over unhappily. Looking at her appearance, Chaoxia seemed to understand something and said, "What's the matter? My adopty mother doesn't want to go out?"
"Yes, my mother said that I have to visit Mr. Song in the afternoon. She has to prepare a gift at home." Although Lv Xianger said she was a little unhappy, there was nothing she could do. When Lv Erniang came to Tiandu for the first time, the Duke of China must have helped a lot. The three juniors came to the capital, and they had to go to the government to visit.
Lv Xianger and Chaoxia were talking about where to go, but Xiaowu came quickly from the door. He saluted the two before saying, "Two little ladies, the second stew manager of the prince is here."
"Oh, then go and tell your mother." Lv Xianger was slightly stunned and suddenly remembered that when Song Yuan parted yesterday, he said that he would come to the Lv family today to take the three of them around. However, what kind of stewerner came today, but Song Yuan didn't come. Maybe there was something wrong with it.
While thinking about it, Lv Erniang came out of the main room with Zao Er, and Xiao Wu also came in with a slightly fat middle-aged man. Although this man's appearance is very ordinary, his flexible eyes are smooth. Moreover, there was always a smile on his face.
The second stewor surnamed Zeng respectfully saluted Lv Erniang, and then turned his head to look at Lv Xianger and Lv Hong. Without waiting for Lv Erniang's introduction, Zeng Er's stewul came to them and said with a smile, "These two must be the two sons and the little ladies of the second wife. The little Zeng Jian has met them."
"Zeng Er is very polite." Zeng Jian is also the stew of the government, and although Lv Hong is already a person, he does not have an official position, and he is not easy to accept his courtesy. When Zeng Er was in charge of the salute, he quickly stepped forward to hold his hand and didn't let him finish the salute.
"Gunzi Lv killed the little one. If you want the prince to know that the little one doesn't know how to be polite, the little one can't stay in the mansion. Zeng Jian didn't know why, so he saluted Lv Hong. Lv Hong couldn't avoid it, so he had to accept his salute. But there was a humble expression on his face, which made the smile in the eyes of the stewor Zeng Er.
Soon, the steward Zeng Er turned to Lv Xianger again, with some surprise in his eyes: "I heard from the prince that the wine of the capital and the soju that the old prince could not forget came from the hands of Lv. When I saw her today, Mrs. Lv was really surprised. Mrs. Lv was also a strange woman.
Lv Xianger smiled gently and replied, "The little woman can't afford the name of 'strange woman'. The second steward Zeng praised it too much."
"Let's bear it, bear it." The second stewer smiled and said to Chaoxia, "The little lady of Chaoxia is still heroic. The old prince still wants to compete with you."
"It's hard for the old prince to remember the little girl." The corners of Chaoxia's mouth raised and only said a simple sentence. Zeng Er's stewer didn't care, as if he knew that Chaoxia's character was like this.
Having met several people, the stewor Zeng Er said to Lv Er Niang, "Second lady, my grandfather went into the palace, so he asked the little one to replace him and took Mr. Lv and the two little ladies to stroll around the capital. My father-in-law said that when he went down, he would come over.
"Oh, it's troublesome to take care of it." When Lv Erniang heard that it was sent by Song Yuan, she did not refuse. When she spent time with Song Yuan in Beijing, she became more and more aware of Song Yuan's hegemony in some aspects. However, in the face of the people of the government, Lv Erniang is still a little uncomfortable. After thinking about it, she asked Xiaowu to put it on the carriage.
But the second steward Zeng suddenly took a step forward, lowered his head and whispered, "Second Lady, my father-in-law has prepared a carriage, which is very spacious and comfortable, which is very suitable for going out."
"That's it." Lv Erniang was stunned and waved her hand. Then she got up and left the living room. Zao'er looked at Lv Xianger and several people, and then quickly followed Lv Erniang.
Lv Erniang was not in a good mood. Lv Xianger, Lv Hong and Chaoxia could see it. The three looked at each other and hesitated whether to go out or not. Because there was also Zeng Er stewman present, the three of them were not easy to talk, and they were all thinking in their hearts.
For a while, the room was quiet. Manager Zeng Er saw the hesitation of Lv Xianger and turned his eyes and understood something. Thinking about it, he coughed and whispered, "Mr. Lv, two little ladies, the second wife is in the capital during this period, and he often gets angry with our prince. Like the scene just now... Well, so don't think..."
Zeng Er said hesitantly, but Lv Xianger, Lv Hong and Chaoxia understood. After Song Yuan recovered from his injury, his temperament changed a little. In the past, his attitude towards Lv Erniang was very reserved. But since he was injured this time and closed the ghost gate once, Song Yuan has treated Lv Erniang more strongly.
Lv Erniang has been divorced, and she still has a mother of a pair of children, where she can face Song Yuan, who is becoming more and more domineering. After Song Yuan was fine, Lv Erniang resolutely moved out of the state office. When she was about to go back to Qingshi County, Song Yuan retained her with the intention of Lv Hong coming to Beijing to participate in the trial.
Thinking of Lv Hong coming to the capital, Lv Xianger must have to follow him, so Lv Erniang decided to stay in the capital. In order to let Lv Hong have a better environment to prepare for the trial, or to enter the palace examination, Lv Erniang went out to find a house and was ready to settle down here for the time being.
Seeing this, Song Yuan found this house for Lv Erniang. Lv Erniang couldn't excuse it before she followed him. Unexpectedly, Lv Erniang fell in love with this house at first sight. It may have been influenced by Lv Xianger. Lv Erniang calculated it and felt that it was not cost-effective to rent it, so she bought it and made a simple decoration.
However, Lv Erniang didn't expect that because the house was very quiet, Song Yuan would come here almost every day. Even if Lv Erniang pulled down her face, Song Yuan went his own way and didn't look at Lv Erniang's face at all. Moreover, when encountering a suitable time for an outing, Song Yuan will arrange everything and forcibly take Lv Erniang to the suburbs. At the beginning, there was no time when Lv Erniang was not angry about such a thing. But over time, she was a little used to it, and she couldn't get angry even if she wanted to.
Lv Hong and Lv Xianger understood Lv Erniang's thoughts and had a plan in their hearts. The brother and sister looked at each other, and Lv Hong smiled at the stew manager Zeng Er: "In this case, Lv and the three will trouble Zeng Er stew. Later, we will go to the National Palace. Let's go shopping nearby. What do you think of Zeng Er?
"What Mr. Lv said is very true." Zeng Er's stewer nodded secretly, then turned his body and made a 'please' gesture. Lv Hong looked at each other and walked out one after another with a smile, but Zeng Er was at the end. Xiaowu, who had been guarding the gate for a long time, saw the four people quickly open the door.
Suddenly, a spacious carriage appeared in front of Lv Hong and the other three. Looking at the familiar carriage, Lv Xianger immediately looked at Manager Zeng Er doubtfully. Manager Zeng Er felt Lv Xianger's eyes, but lowered his head and did not look at Lv Xianger.
Lv Hong was also very strange, but he didn't think much about it. Chaoxia raised the corners of her mouth and whispered in Lv Xianger's ear, "It's so spacious and comfortable. Mr. Song is really thoughtful, isn't he, Xianger?
As soon as Lv Xianger heard Chaoxia's strange tone, her face immediately blushed slightly and said anxiously, "Sister Chaoxia, you tease me again, I, I will tell my mother that you are 'Sichun'."
"You little girl, I don't know who 'Sichun' is." Chaoxia nodded Lv Xianger's forehead and turned her head to look at the carriage. This carriage is exactly Huo Qingsong's seat in Jiangling Mansion. Could it be that Huo Qingsong was really interested in Lu Xianger, and Chaoxia was suddenly shocked by his own idea.
