The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 697 The Third Aunt Who Returned to Beijing Suddenly

After the winter solstice, the Chinese New Year is getting closer and closer. After returning home from the hot spring villa, Su Yunduo has been busy again.

In addition to preparing the annual gifts to be sent to various places, it is also necessary to check the account books that have been continuously sent to the house from various places and prepare for the New Year's affairs.

Of course, no matter how busy she was, she never forgot to prepare a full moon gift for Lu Yuhua's son.

Originally, it was agreed that Lu Yuhua's son would pick An's home two days before the full moon, but the plan changed. An's only stayed in the hot spring villa for a few days, and the third aunt's wife Lu Baozhu, who was released by the third aunt, suddenly brought her children. left the capital.

Although Lu Baozhu's in-law's family is not in the capital, but there is a big house on Anhua Street not far from Zhen Guogong's mansion.

It's just that since Lu Baozhu was sent out with her husband, even though there were servants who stayed behind to take care of the cleaning for more than ten years, they couldn't move in for a while. House settled down.

Lu Baozhu and the third master Lu Tong are brothers and sisters, born of Aunt Fang. Because Aunt Fang gave birth to Lu Baozhu with difficulty, Lu Baozhu was brought by his aunt An's side. However, the government of Zhen Guo has always enjoyed the treatment of a daughter-in-law.

Back then, the Duke of Zhen Guo was the third daughter, Lu Baozhu, who was listed as a son-in-law. An Fengrui, a second-class Jinshi from a family in Taicheng, became the son-in-law of the Duke of Zhen Guo's mansion, which is also a good story.

Seeing Lu Baozhu and his party suddenly appearing in the Duke of Zhen's mansion, Su Yunduo was surprised and curious, but he didn't want to ask more questions, so he hurriedly arranged for the group to live in Haitang Courtyard.

When she and Lu Jinkang got married in September, Lu Baozhu brought her children back to drink their wedding wine. It was originally agreed that she would at least live in the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion until Lu Jinzhen got married before taking her children back to Taicheng to settle down and visit relatives and celebrate the New Year. Within a few days of Yun Duo and Lu Jinkang, Lu Baozhu received a letter from Taicheng, saying that the old lady of An's family was seriously ill, and asked them to go to Taicheng immediately.

This time when Lu Baozhu and his party arrived at the Zhen Guogong's mansion, although they were full of travel and dust, they did not look embarrassed, and they were not dressed in plain colors, especially the two cousins ​​were very festive in red and red. It seems that the old lady of the An family should be fine. thing.

"Did I hear you right, you actually let the two old people go to the Zhuangzi to recuperate in this weather?" Hearing that Lu Mingyang and An's were not in the mansion but went to the Zhuangzi in the western suburbs, Lu Baozhu looked at Su in disbelief. Yun Duo, what he said also had a hint of condemnation.

"Third Aunt heard it right, grandparents are indeed recuperating in Zhuangzi." Su Yunduo frowned slightly, but still nodded very seriously.

Lu Baozhu's complexion was even worse, he gave Su Yunduo a hard look, and handed over the matter to the mother-in-law and maid beside him, and left the Begonia Court arranged by Su Yunduo for their mother and daughter, and went straight to the third room The Qiuju Garden where it is located.

No matter what Lu Baozhu came to the capital for this trip, Su Yunduo would report to Hot Spring Villa.

Upon receiving the letter, An Shi packed up her bags and hurried back to the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion. At the same time, Mrs. Lu returned to the city, and Lu Mingyang continued to stay in the hot spring villa to recuperate.

In fact, after these days of recuperation, Lu Mingyang's old cold legs have basically recovered, and his bones are healthier than before, but compared to the city, the life in the hot spring villa is more carefree, so the old man not only enjoys it, but also pays attention to it. From time to time, invite old friends to go to the hot spring villa to have fun with them.

Because she didn't know the purpose of Lu Baozhu's return to the capital, An's hoped that the old man would return home with her.

After all, An's is only Lu Baozhu's aunt. Even if Lu Baozhu grew up beside her from birth, what's the real problem? Her aunt is not as useful to Lu Baozhu as her biological father, Lu Mingyang.

It's a pity that the old man who had lived a happy life didn't want to come back at this time, so he only asked An Shi to bring back some words to Lu Baozhu, and made a special promise to An Shi that he would return to his home for the New Year, and asked Lu Jinkang to pick him up at the Hot Spring Villa before his junior year. That is the government.

"This old man, I persuaded him to go to the hot spring villa to recuperate before, but he always pushed back. Now something in the mansion calls him back, but he is unwilling to come back. It has caused you a lot of trouble." An Shi shook her head to Su Yunduo road.

Su Yunduo pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Look at what my grandmother said, what troubles can it cause me, it's too late for my grandfather to like me and be happy!"

Recalling the days spent in the hot spring villa, An also misses it very much: "Speaking of which, the hot spring villa is really good. The spring is so beautiful and warmer than the city! Not to mention your grandfather, even your aunt is a little reluctant to go back home It's just that this year is your mother's first year to be a director on her own, even if you leave the most useful nanny to your mother, she still feels a little worried."

Su Yunduo chuckled silently. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes a few days ago, let alone Mrs. Lu, even she was worried that without Mrs. Lu in the mansion, the Ning family would not be able to control the servants in the mansion. I was also worried about whether the annual ceremony organized by the Ning family was appropriate.

A few days ago, Su Yunduo took advantage of the opportunity to go to Jinxiufang to look at the duck down products, and went to Su's second room to visit Ning's, but the result surprised her.

She went there that day and happened to meet Ning's arrangement of a New Year's ceremony in the mansion.

Ban Xia, who was guarding outside the council hall, saw Su Yunduo far away and came out to meet him, and told Su Yunduo in a low voice that Ning's family was in council at the moment, and wanted to take Su Yunduo to sit in the side hall first.

Su Yunduo shook his head, approached the council hall cautiously, and stood outside the door quietly listening to the movement inside.

This really surprised Su Yunduo, if it wasn't for the neat and orderly voice that came from Ning's, she really couldn't believe that the person in charge was Ning's.

The Ning family in the council hall gave Su Yunduo a brand-new feeling. For the first time, she found that Ning, who had left her and Mrs. Lu and had no dependence, also had quite a talent in managing the family and managing accounts and managing money.

Presumably after this time, Mrs. Lu can also safely hand over the family support to the Ning family.

Here, Anshi and Su Yunduo were talking happily, while Lu Baozhu, who got the news, rushed to Zhenghe Hall with his children.

As soon as he entered the Zhenghe Hall, Lu Baozhu gave a cold snort to Su Yunduo, and then brought his children to greet An Shi.

Lu Baozhu's attitude was too obvious, Anshi couldn't help but frowned, looked at Lu Baozhu with some displeasure and asked, "Baozhu, but Brother Kang's daughter-in-law didn't arrange it carefully, which made you so dissatisfied? What's so inconsiderate?" , you want to take care of her when she is young."

Lu Baozhu couldn't help being stunned. When it comes to the arrangements for their mother and children, Su Yunduo is thoughtful and meticulous, and there is really nothing to be picky about.

It's just that when Su Yunduo sent the two elders to the village in the suburbs just after Su Yunduo became the director of the family, Lu Baozhu's heart was full of anger.

Although An's face in front of her looked rosy and energetic, even though her sister-in-law Yang told her that the old couple went to the hot spring villa bestowed on Su Yunduo by the Holy Lord, and told her that the hot spring villa was very beneficial to the old man's body. The good thing is that Lu Baozhu still firmly believes that it is unfilial to send the old man to the Zhuangzi in this kind of weather.

So he glared at Su Yunduo again, and turned to An Shi angrily, "I heard that Brother Kang sent his parents to a village in the suburbs. I don't know why?"

After hearing Lu Baozhu's words, An Shi finally understood why she was dissatisfied with Su Yunduo, and couldn't help laughing: "A while ago, your father's old cold legs relapsed. Fortunately, Brother Kang and his wife insisted on sending your father to the hot spring villa. Otherwise, I don't know how your father suffered!

Don't worry, the hot spring is very effective for your father. Your father is now in high spirits. Every now and then, he will invite a few old men who are close to him to the villa to play with him!
Today, when I heard that you have returned to the capital, I said that my son-in-law must return to Beijing to take up a post next year.

He asked me to tell you that your courtyard in the capital city has not been lived in for more than ten years. Although there are people watching all the time, you have to repair it if you want to live in it. Let San'er be responsible for finding people for the repairs, and you mothers just take care of it. An Xin lives in the mansion first.

If your son-in-law has any ideas about returning to Beijing to work, let you discuss with Kang Geer. Kang Geer who can help you with your uncle's affairs must definitely help. "

After hearing An's words, Lu Baozhu's face was very exciting, and he looked at Su Yunduo with more scrutiny.

Su Yunduo always had a faint smile on his face.
