The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 32
Ning Zhongping is very grateful to the young master for his deep understanding of righteousness. After all, he has been tempered by the young master during this period of time. Naturally, he is very happy to have such an arrangement by the young master. He neatly arranged for the bodyguards to leave the station. Lu Jinkang's young master walked out of the station surrounded by the old doctor, servants and guards, and hurriedly walked up two steps to say hello: "Young master, is the wind and cold better?"

Lu Jinkang nodded slightly to Ning Zhongping and got into the carriage waiting in front of the station without saying a word, but his servant returned to Ning Zhongping enthusiastically: "Dr. , Young Master's body is fine, thank you Uncle Ping for your concern."

Dr. Kong is the old doctor who saved Ning Zhongping's life. It is said that this old doctor had the honor to study medicine with the medical sages of Shengyi Valley when he was young, and his medical skills are quite superb.

Thirty years ago, the king of Xitu Kingdom heard about him from nowhere, and sent people to take control of Dr. Kong's family, young and old. Fortunately, he was rescued by Zhen Guogong, and the family was safe. Since then, Dr. Kong followed Zhen Guogong from the border. When he arrived in the capital, he even gave up the chance to become an imperial physician in the palace.

Of course, although Dr. Kong refused to be an imperial physician in the imperial hospital, he had entered the palace several times to treat illnesses and injuries for the nobles in the palace.

Five years ago, the prince was injured by an assassin from Xitu Kingdom. Dr. Kong was ordered to save the prince's life together with the eldest son, the imperial physician Kong.

When Duke Zhen heard that Ning Zhongping's parents and wife were in poor health, he specially invited Dr. Kong to accompany him, of course for the sake of Lu Jinkang's physical and mental health.

After all, Dr. Kong adjusted Lu Jinkang's body since he was born. In fact, it is Dr. Kong's credit that Xu's body and bones can spread branches and leaves for the Duke of Zhenguo.

Last night the old doctor gave Lu Jinkang an injection and specially adjusted the prescription. Although Lu Jinkang still had a cough, his body was fine.

Lu Jinkang is the eldest grandson of Lu Mingyang, who is known as the No. [-] Duke of the Dongling Kingdom, and his mother made a marriage arrangement for him with Qi Sisi, the eldest granddaughter of the Marquis of Pingan's Mansion.

This year, Qi Sisi and Ji, in order to show the importance they attach to this marriage, half a month ago, Mrs. An, Mrs. Zhen, brought Lu Jinkang's stepmother and eldest son, Mrs. Xiao Xu, to the door to discuss the marriage with Mrs. Ping'an Hou Fu, but Qi Sisi rushed in suddenly. , Pointing out that Lu Jinkang is a dude who doesn't think about making progress and is really not a good person, crying and clamoring to break off the engagement with Lu Jinkang.

Mrs. Zhen Guogong's wife, An, was born in a family of military generals. She has always been irritable and extremely defensive.

Lu Jinkang's mother is not in good health and can't take care of herself. It can be said that Lu Jinkang was brought up by An Shi. Not to mention that Lu Jinkang is not a worthless dandy, even if Lu Jinkang is really just a useless dandy, he can't tolerate a junior so rampantly slandering her in front of him His grandson was naturally so angry, he couldn't hold back his temper and kept his mouth shut, he slapped the table and yelled at Qi Sisi.

However, the old lady Lin of the Marquis of Ping'an's Mansion is also very defensive, knowing that this matter is Qi Sisi's fault everywhere, but she confronts An's tit for tat, and the matter becomes a big deal.

It was just to discuss the marriage of the two young ones, but it turned out to be a conflict between the two governments, and finally the lawsuit was brought before the Queen Mother.

Although the marriage ended as Qi Sisi wished, and Qi Sisi's reputation was greatly damaged, Lu Jinkang naturally did not please him.

Lu Jinkang's reputation in the capital was not that good, even if he wasn't rotten now, he was only one step away from it.

Speaking of the Duke of Zhen's mansion in Dongling Country, it is really famous. All the men of the Lu family are proud of their military achievements. Not to mention the men in the mansion, even the women in the mansion will practice martial arts, horseback riding and archery with their masters since they were young. The men and women in the Duke's Mansion can mount a horse, draw a bow, dismount a horse and swing a knife, all of them are full of heroism.

As the eldest grandson of Duke Zhen, Lu Jinkang is naturally the future Duke of Zhen in the eyes of the world, and he should have superb martial arts, but something happened unexpectedly.

Perhaps because his mother Xu's body was too weak, Lu Jinkang was thinner than ordinary children since he was born.

Looking at her son who looked thinner than other children, Mrs. Xu couldn't bear to let her only child go to practice martial arts and endure hardships. Naturally, she was obstructed in every possible way. Therefore, although Lu Jinkang also practiced martial arts, it is said that he always fished for two days. Tianzhaiwang, and because of Xu's indulgence and love for him, he developed an arrogant and willful temper over time.

After Mrs. Xu died of illness, the Duke of Zhen and his wife felt sorry for him when he lost his mother when he was young, and they indulged him even more. Gradually, Lu Jinkang gained the reputation of the little bully in the capital. His hat was properly put on his head.

Although Zhen Guogong was annoyed that Ping'an Hou's mansion had no way to teach his daughter, and he was very helpless with his wife's violent temper, but at this point, he could only find a reason for Lu Jinkang to leave the center of the storm in Kyoto for a while.

It just so happened that his daughter-in-law Lu Baozhu, who brought her daughter back to the capital to visit relatives, provided him with an excellent opportunity. When Ning Zhongping recovered from his injury and bid farewell to the Duke of Zhen, the Duke of Zhen specially arranged for Lu Jinkang to go out of Beijing with Ning Zhongping.

The Zhen Guo Mansion announced to the public that Lu Jinkang, on behalf of the Zhen Guo Mansion, expressed his gratitude to Ning Zhongping's parents, and thanked Ning Zhongping for his life-saving grace to the Zhen Guo Mansion's aunt and Miss Biao.

Lu Jinkang originally didn't want to leave Beijing at this time, as if he cared so much about this marriage.

In fact, he has always held an indifferent attitude towards this marriage, and has no liking for Qi Sisi who always looks at people with his nostrils, not to mention the love between men and women, and only has more and more disgust.

If it hadn't been for the marriage that his mother personally arranged for him before his death, he would have come to the door and returned the marriage a long time ago. How could he allow the woman to make such a big fuss and make him lose face in front of his relatives and friends.

However, rather than staying in the capital and facing his stepmother's tears day and night, leaving Beijing for a walk seems to be more in Lu Jinkang's mind.

For Lu Jinkang, facing his stepmother who always shed tears whenever he met him was really more annoying than facing the scrutiny of others.

Lu Jinkang's biological mother had been sick since she was a child, and she couldn't leave the medicine pot since she gave birth to him. Although she was always cured and saved her life, Lu Jinkang passed away when he was eight years old.

At that time, Lu Jinkang's father was not yet thirty, and even though there was a room in the backyard and even two beautiful concubines, it was still impossible not to reunite. In addition, Lu Jinkang's natal family was already in decline. In-laws, so the two governments communicated, and the candidate for the continuation was quickly determined.

One year after Lu Jinkang's biological mother passed away, the youngest concubine sister of Lu Jinkang's mother Xu became Lu Jinkang's stepmother.

In other words, the current Mrs. Zhen Guogong Shizi is Lu Jinkang's aunt.
