The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 189

While Su Yunduo was doing his best to teach the skill of making jerky, the other courtyard welcomed a guest who came all the way from the capital.

Because of the arrival of this guest, Lu Jinkang appeared in Fucheng again.

This is an old lady who is nearly [-] years old. Although she has traveled a long distance, she is very energetic.

According to Zisu's introduction, this old lady used to be the son of the Lu family. She served in front of the old lady of the Lu family when she was very young. When the old lady got married, she became the dowry girl of the old lady. .

Mrs. Lu was 15 years old that year, and this old lady was also 15 years old.

Because of her eloquence, wit and wink, she has always been valued by Mrs. Lu. It was not until the age of 20 that she married the shopkeeper of Mrs. Lu's dowry shop at the insistence of Mrs. Lu.

On the day of her wedding, Mrs. Lu handed over the life deeds of the old lady and the shopkeeper's family to her. From then on, the old lady's family has been good citizens.

The old lady's son didn't do much, just followed her man conscientiously as the shopkeeper in the old lady Lu's shop, but she had an extremely competitive grandson, who was a high school student in high school, and the girl who used to be next to the old lady Lu is now Already a respectable old lady.

Because the old lady was a child of the Lu family, she was only called Caiqin when she was on duty in front of the old lady Lu. When she married into her husband's family, she simply took her husband's surname Zhang. Now everyone respectfully calls her "Mrs. Zhang".

When Zi Su talked about this old lady, her face was full of envy and admiration.

Thinking about it, in this era, if it wasn't for the appreciation of the master, who was a servant for a day and was a servant for a lifetime, although this old lady is not unique, it must be rare.

Although no one told Su Yunduo why this elderly old lady Zhang came to Yanshan Mansion from the capital all the way, when Zisu told about the legendary life of the old lady Zhang one by one, Su Yunduo had a certain understanding in her heart. guess.

This old lady must have come to Yanshan Mansion to play the vanguard on behalf of old lady Lu!
Since Mrs. Zhang was originally Mrs. Lu's dowry maid and was appreciated by Mrs. Lu, she is naturally very familiar with the appearance of Su Ling'an, the magistrate of Su.

Su Chengzhi's appearance is not like that of the old Su family except for his eyes, so his appearance should be more similar to Su Ling'an.

Whether it is Lu Jinkang or the old doctor, they have mentioned several times in front of Su Yunduo intentionally or unintentionally, that Su Chengzhi and Su Yunduo, who looks somewhat similar to Su Chengzhi, are somewhat similar to the people of the Su family in the capital.

Sure enough, when Mrs. Zhang saw Su Yunduo, she was a little excited, and when she saw Su Chengzhi from a distance, she was stunned.

Fortunately, because of Su Yunduo's insistence that they didn't meet directly, otherwise, Mrs. Zhang might have stepped forward and grabbed Su Chengzhi and called him "Uncle" directly!

Even now across a small garden, Mrs. Zhang still kept saying, "It's so similar, it's so similar, it looks exactly like my uncle back then! And the walking posture, it's so similar! Looking from behind, The old man thought it was my uncle."

Although Mrs. Zhang's words are a bit exaggerated, across a small garden, Mrs. Zhang is so old, her eyesight is not as good as when she was young, but just looking at it from such a distance, Su Chengzhi's appearance, demeanor and walking figure Zi, no matter how you look at it, she looks like her uncle.

Mrs. Zhang wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. She was really happy for her girl, Mrs. Lu!
Mrs. Zhang has served Mrs. Lu for more than ten years. She grew up with Mrs. Lu, accompanied her to marry into the Su family, and accompanied her through the most difficult years when she first arrived in the Su family. The friendship between master and servant is extraordinary. Usually, she knows the pain in Mrs. Lu's heart best.

The old lady Lu is the daughter of the Duke of Zhen's mansion, and the younger sister of the current Duke of Zhen with the same father and mother. With her status, it is not impossible to marry a prince, but after meeting Su Ling'an, she just fell in love with her. She has a deep love for Su Ling'an, and she is willing to marry Su Ling'an, who is 16 years older than her, as her stepmother, but she is criticized for failing to give birth to a boy and a half girl for Su Ling'an.

But Mrs. Lu couldn't be blamed for failing to give birth to a boy and a half girl. If she hadn't been forced by her family back then, Su Ling'an would not have let her go, and Mrs. Lu would never have left Beijing. Injured body can no longer bear children.

There are so many old and stubborn people in the Su family who insist on blaming all the responsibilities on the old lady Lu. If the old lady Lu's family background is not strong enough, as the elder brother, the Duke of Zhen is strong enough, the old lady Lu might have been blamed by the Su family. Old Stubborn eats until there are no bones left.

After learning that she was injured and might not be able to conceive again, Mrs. Lu tried to persuade Su Ling'an to take a concubine many times, but was rejected by Su Ling'an again and again, and only allowed Mrs. Lu to recuperate her body with peace of mind.

Mrs. Lu's treatment has been going on for nearly ten years, and when she is nearly [-] years old, she is sure that there is no hope of having children. Regardless of Su Ling'an's objection, Mrs. Lu personally bought a concubine for Su Ling'an. This concubine is Su Chengzhi's mother, Su Jiao, the daughter of the old Su family. mother.

Although Su Jiaoniang entered the backyard of the magistrate, Su Ling'an has never been willing to enter her room. It was not until the old lady Lu forced her to die that she consummated the room with Su Jiaoniang one year after Su Jiaoniang entered the mansion. She never went into Su Jiaoniang's room after she got on it, but because of this, there was a little estrangement between her and Mrs. Lu.

The originally loving couple came to this point, and the old lady Lu was both comforted and sad. When Su Jiaoniang was six months old, she was sure that Su Jiaoniang was pregnant with a boy, so she used the excuse that her body was not suitable for life in the North. Insisting on leaving the Northland and returning to the capital, she never expected that this farewell would become a forever farewell, but the old lady Lu escaped the chaos of the war and survived.

When the news of Su Zhifu's death reached the capital, Mrs. Lu passed out immediately. The distraught Mrs. Lu couldn't get sick anymore. It was Su Chengzhi's news that gave her the courage to live.

"At that time, I was by her side almost every day, holding her hand, and saying a few baskets of words every day, but she just stared at the ceiling half dead, without a trace of anger, until it was mentioned that Aunt Su gave birth to Su Ling'an For that son, her eyeballs finally moved, and slowly there was light in her eyes.

The people around her and I desperately talked about the baby who had never seen it and didn't know if it was still alive, which finally gave her the motivation to live.

It's a pity that all the clues seem to have been deliberately eliminated, but the girl has never been discouraged. She has been searching persistently for 30 years. As long as someone comes to the north, she will be entrusted with it. Nearly 30 years of searching have found nothing. No effort at all. "Old lady Zhang held Su Yunduo's hand full of sighs.
