Stepmother Shaoguang

Chapter 34 Aunt Jiang

"Aunt Jiang told me." Lu Mingyan gently put down the pen, turned around, and bowed his head in embarrassment.

"Aunt Jiang? That cousin sent by your grandfather's family??" There seemed to be such a person in the backyard, but because he didn't have any sense of existence, He Shaoguang really wanted to forget about her.

I didn't expect that she was teaching the children indiscriminately.

"Yeah. But I've already figured it out, mother." Lu Mingyan raised his head again, and said to her seriously: "You are good to girl Zhen, you are also good to me, and you are better to my father than my mother. We like you, you should Got it. I haven't forgotten my mother, it's not a betrayal."

He Shaoguang hadn't played yet, when he heard the child say this.

She couldn't laugh or cry: "Since this is the case, why eat so little tonight?"

Naturally, Lu Mingyan was embarrassed to say that he couldn't eat because he was angry with a cat, so he had to find an excuse for his poor appetite.

He Shaoguang didn't ask any further questions, and put the snacks and milk tea he brought in front of him: "Hey, let's eat."

Seeing the sweet snacks, Lu Mingyan felt really hungry, so he obediently thanked He Shaoguang, and began to take small bites.

Although Lu Mingyan no longer held grudges, Aunt Jiang couldn't just let her go.Doing this thing of making a fire with a screwdriver, it can be seen that the previous cautiousness was all pretended.

He Shaoguang was annoyed: In the past few months, every time I met someone from the Jiang family, nothing good happened!

I can't help but have an indelible bad impression of the people in this family. This is still the beginning, and I have to deal with them in the future.

Back in the room and thinking about it, He Shaoguang felt that he was not good at getting involved in this matter, so he had to ask Mrs. Lu to come forward.

How to convince the old lady?When you ask someone to do something, you have to give some favors
So the next day He Shaoguang woke up early, spent a lot of time in the small kitchen, and finally took Zhijun and Nijun to Lilac Garden before breakfast.

The old lady hasn't gotten up yet, but Zhou's mother is already waiting on the porch.

Zhou's mother has followed the old lady for decades, and at this age, she no longer needs to keep vigil.The four maidservants in front of the old lady, Lin Yun, Ruiyun, Cuiyun, and Dongyun, came to watch the night in turn.

These big maids are also in their 20s, and they are very talkative in the mansion.The old lady needs to use someone, except for serving the old lady, you don't need to look at the faces of other people.

Even Lu Sanye was often choked by Zhou's mother and dared not speak back.

But they are all very well-mannered and never act in a showy manner.

Zhou's mother was surprised when she saw He Shaoguang came so early today: "The second lady came early, and the old lady is still asleep. But I guess she will wake up soon." It's been a long time.

He Shaoguang came here with the food box in person, and when he heard that the old lady hadn't gotten up yet, he smiled even more happily: "It's okay, I'll just wait here with Mother Zhou."

Did she wake up so early to come here before the old lady finished her breakfast? It would be better if she didn't get up, and take care of the old lady's daily life and wash by the way.

Zhou's mother is a fine person, seeing He Shaoguang like this, she knows that she has something to ask for.

Zhou's mother just smiled and stopped talking. After a while, she heard the movement inside, which was Dong Yun's voice.This means that the old lady has woken up and asked the servants to go in and wait.

Zhou's mother walked in front, and He Shaoguang followed her steps.As soon as he entered, he saw that the old lady had changed her clothes and was sitting on the bed drinking fragrant tea, her complexion was a little pale.

He Shaoguang took the food box, and first went to the table and put it down, and waited until Zhou's mother came over with the help of the old lady, she opened the lid of the food box and laid out the contents one by one.

The staple food is a small bowl of rice porridge with red dates and longan, small steamed buns with thin skin filled with soup, and fried golden crispy beef patties.

A small plate of shredded plum vegetables and bamboo shoots, a plate of five-nut sour beans, and crispy bamboo shoots with enoki mushrooms.

The soup is a sweet pumpkin soup with some milk in it.

"Mother, let's have a meal. I made this by myself today. You can try it."

He Shaoguang helped her sit down, and they got very close, the sandalwood fragrance from Mrs. Lu's body lingered on her nose.

"You have a heart." Mrs. Lu looked very happy, but she also knew that He Shaoguang was looking for her on something.

Just look for it, she is alone in the mansion, and Xiaowen and herself are the only ones who can support her. If Xiaowen is not here, it would be wrong for her not to look for herself.

As long as it is not a difficult matter, the old lady likes the feeling of being relied on by the juniors, so she will help.

He Shaoguang was very careful, and kept helping the old lady prepare and pick up vegetables, until the old lady stopped chopsticks and asked her what's the matter today?
Only then did he put on an aggrieved and weak look, and told the old lady what was wrong with Lu Mingyan these days, how he discovered it, and what Lu Mingyan said to her last night.

In the end, He Shaoguang said aggrievedly: "It's not that the daughter-in-law can't tolerate an aunt, it's just that the child is still young, and letting her touch her will probably lead them into disbelief."

Mrs. Lu's face became more and more serious as she listened.She hadn't discovered this Jiang family before!It's a provocation.

She also provoked her two most beloved grandchildren.

She sent Dongyun to inquire among the servants in front of Lu Mingyan, if what He Shaoguang said was true, this person must not stay.

She comforted He Shaoguang, and said to her: "Don't worry, in fact, you should have sent her out long before you entered the door, just because of the fact that she has been honest and responsible for so many years... It seems that her duties are all fake. Yes, hum! Now I can’t keep anything.”

I'm also tired of the Jiang family's style in my heart, is it because I'm afraid that my grandson will not be close to them when he grows up?

"Brother Yan is a good one, and girl Zhen likes you too." Since Mrs. Lu mentioned this, she also nodded to He Shaoguang by the way: "Shaoguang, as long as you go on like this, they will treat you as their biological mother in the future."

The implication is to ask her not to go astray, not to have any inappropriate thoughts.

The Lu family can protect her prosperity for a lifetime.

He Shaoguang has no big ambitions, and he didn't think about harming others in the past.Mrs. Lu also saw all these, knowing that she was well-behaved.

That's why there is such a sentence.Most of the daughters-in-law who made mistakes in the aristocratic family died of illness.

He Shaoguang knew that the old lady was willing to help him, so he pretended to be relieved, but in fact he was really relieved, and said goodbye with a smile: "Then mother, take a good rest, the daughter-in-law has to go and see Zhen girl. "

A few days after this, the Lu residence heard that Aunt Jiang of the Rose House had contracted an illness, and she was afraid that it would infect others.

Mrs. Lu made the decision and sent her to a village in the suburbs of Beijing where few people go to recuperate from her illness, and she will come back when she recovers.

But everyone knows that this disease will never get better.Aunt Jiang will spend her whole life on Zhuangzi, and she will never be able to go home again.

In the carriage driving to Zhuangzi, Aunt Jiang and Rong Jin, the personal maid she brought with her from Jiang's mansion, were sitting.

Although Aunt Jiang has been lonely in the backyard for many years, she is still in her twenties.The face is like a peach blossom, how can it look half sick?

Open the curtain and see the dust flying outside.She sighed slightly: "Tell me, is it worth it for me to do this?"

Rong Jin comforted her: "Auntie is also for the Jiang family, if you listen to them, the master will not ignore you."

Forget it, Rong Jin herself knew that saying this was just a comfort.
