Ma'am, she only wants to be promoted

Chapter 22 The Fuchu Situation
The two nodded at the same time.

Lu Wanning thought for a while, and said: "When I was in Chuxiu Palace, several people lived in one room, and many things were inconvenient. I haven't washed my face with face powder for a long time, and the food is not as good as it is in the house. , I lost weight, and it’s normal if my skin gets worse, and it’ll be fine when I look back and take care of it for a few days.”

Qingzhi and Qingdai's eyes turned redder when they heard this, "Miss is suffering."

Zhou Man on the side listened to the three people's words, and unconsciously glanced at Lu Wanning, asking him to say that Lu Meiren is already the most beautiful woman she has ever seen. But Lu Meiren's appearance is also top-notch in this harem full of beauties. How to say that, it seems to be called skin like creamy fat, appearance like a fairy.

And the maid who served beside her in the past actually said that Lu Meiren's complexion has become worse, so how bright and beautiful Lu Meiren should be when her complexion is good?

Just as Zhou Man was thinking, Lu Wanning glanced at him suddenly, just this indifferent glance without any emotion, but Zhou Man suddenly woke up, he was really dizzy, and stared straight at his master in a daze.

Zhou Man hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to admit his mistake, "Beauty forgive me, beauty forgive me, the villain has lost his composure."

Lu Wanning frowned slightly, Zhou Man's heart sank, and then he heard Lu Wanning say, "Just call me master from now on."

Zhou Man was stunned for a moment before he realized what Lu Wanning said. He kowtowed again and replied, "Yes, master."

Lu Wanning waved her hand and said, "Okay, you have nothing to do here, you can go out first."

"Yes, master, the villain will leave." Zhou Man kowtowed again.

Lu Wanning rubbed her forehead and said, "Also, you don't have to kowtow every now and then."

"Yes, master, the villain will remember." After Zhou Man finished speaking, seeing that Lu Wanning had no other orders, he withdrew.

After the person left, Lu Wanning sighed slightly. When we first met, she obviously thought Zhou Man was quite clever, but just now why did she feel that this person was a bit stupid? Could it be that she was mistaken at first?
Forget it, let's observe for another two days. If this person is really not as smart as she thought, then the errands arranged for him will probably change.

Moreover, it is hard to say whether the four people arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs are useful or not, and whether there are other masters behind them, so there is no need to worry too much.

After thinking about it, Lu Wanning continued to talk to Qingzhi and Qingdai, asking them about their situation in the palace after entering the palace.

"Is it okay when I enter the palace? How is your mother?"

What Lu Wanning was most worried about was Tao Shi. Thinking of Tao Shi's sadness when she entered the palace, Lu Wanning was worried that Tao Shi would cry and hurt her body after entering the palace.

As for Lu Simo, he spends most of his weekdays in the academy, and Lu Wanning has long been used to it.

Qingzhi and Qingdai glanced at each other, but still didn't hide it from Lu Wanning, Qingzhi said: "Miss, the day after you left the palace, Madam fell ill..."

"Mother is sick?" Lu Wanning became anxious when she heard the words, "Why is mother sick again? Have you seen a doctor? Is it serious? Are you okay now?"

Qingzhi hurriedly comforted Lu Wanning, "Miss, don't worry, Madam's illness has already recovered when the servants entered the palace. Dr. Sun from Renshan Hall said that Madam's illness this time was caused by long-term stagnation in her heart. As long as Madam Just keep calm from now on.”

Caused by long-term depression?
Lu Wanning fell silent. Since her father and brother died in battle, although her mother couldn't see anything on the surface, only she knew the pain in her heart, and her body had also become worse from the day-by-day self-suffering. Because she entered the palace involuntarily, it's not surprising that her mother would be depressed.

Qingzhi observed Lu Wanning's face, and said: "Miss, when the servants entered the palace, Madam asked the servants to tell the lady: Let you remember, she doesn't ask you to have a bright future, but only asks you to take care of yourself and be safe and healthy."

The look on Lu Wanning's face changed for the better, she nodded, and said, "I see, besides my mother's illness, did anything else happen in the mansion?"

"Yes." Qingzhi said: "Miss San's marriage has been settled, and it is decided to be the son of Master Du's family of Jijiu in the Imperial College. Originally, the old lady was looking for the fourth son from Jiayi Bo's family, but the second lady couldn't live or die. Agreed, in the end the old lady was angry and didn't want to take care of the third lady anymore, so she asked the second lady to choose a marriage for the third lady, and the second lady chose the son of the Imperial College Jijiu Master Du's family."

It sounds like the fourth son of Jiayibo's mansion and their Zhongyonghou's mansion seem to be more well-matched, while the family of Guozijian Jijiu seems to be lower, but based on Lu Wanning's understanding of the old lady and the second lady, there may be some differences between them. what's the matter.

Not to mention the old lady, in her eyes, Lu Wanqing, like her, can be sacrificed for the benefit of the Hou family, and because the second uncle is a concubine, Lu Wanqing may not be as important as her in the old lady's eyes.

As for the second lady, she usually doesn't look like a mountain, but Lu Wanning feels that this person has her own hills and valleys in her heart. Lu Wanqing is her own daughter, and she can't just give Lu Wanqing to someone else.

"Is there something wrong with the fourth son from Jia Yibo's mansion, or is there something special about the son of Guozijian Jijiu Master Du's family?" Lu Wanning asked.

"The servants don't know about this either." Qingzhi shook her head and said: "The servants heard that the fourth son of Jiayibo is gentle and handsome, he is very popular with Jiayibo and Mrs. Jiayibo, and everyone in the mansion also treats him very much. Beloved. On the contrary, the son of Guozijian's Jijiu Master Du's family is not well-known, and the servants in the mansion are very puzzled by the second lady's behavior. Why did the second lady choose a fifth-rank man instead of Jia Yibo's mansion? Guozijian Festival Restaurant."

Lu Wanning didn't think there was anything to be puzzled about. If it wasn't for the fact that there was something wrong with the fourth son of the Uncle Jiayi's family, it would be that the second wife felt that the relationship between a family like the Uncle Jia's was complicated. However, the staff in the Du Mansion is simple, and Du Fu's family status is low. Lu Wanqing's marriage used to be considered a low marriage. The whole Du Mansion disrespected Lu Wanqing, and they did not dare to bully Lu Wanqing easily.

"Third Sister's marriage is settled, what about Fourth Miss and Sixth Miss?" Lu Wanning asked again.

Qingzhi said: "Miss Fourth and Miss Six's marriage has not yet been decided."

After carefully asking about what happened in Fuchu this month, the morning time has passed, and it will be lunch time soon.

It is naturally impossible for a place like Linglong Pavilion to have such a configuration as a small kitchen. Lu Wanning's lunch needs to be taken in the dining room by herself.

It was Zhou Man who was in charge of getting meals from the dining room.

The beauty's diet is two meat and two vegetables, four dishes and one soup, one snack and one fruit.
