Stepmother Shaoguang

Chapter 8
"Well," He Shaoguang felt a little regretful, "It's just that I don't have ice, so I splashed it with well water, which is just enough to quench my thirst. If I can use ice cubes for an afternoon, it will definitely be more enjoyable."

"There is an ice cellar in the big kitchen in the mansion. If you need to use it in the future, you can send someone to get it."

It would be even better if you can give him a copy of the prepared food.

"Hey, that's right. When...when will you take a bath?" He Shaoguang seemed to casually bring up this topic that had been holding back a meal.

"what happened?"

"I want to go out for a walk... Do you have time to accompany me?" He Shaoguang finished quickly, and added an explanation, "Today I am going to find my sister-in-law! The sister-in-law said that you can take me out. If you are not free, just Take me out, and I'll go shopping by myself!"

He Shaoguang was afraid of being rejected, so he spoke very fast, crackling like beans falling from a bamboo tube.

Lu Xiaowen thought it was funny, and deliberately teased her: "I haven't taken a rest this month."

"what…"

"The day after tomorrow, I will take you out of the house the day after tomorrow."

"..."

Anyway, you can go out.

The first night, He Shaoguang was so excited that he couldn't sleep.Since she was about to get married, she had very few days on the street, not even two or three times.

You must know that she was the most wanton in the past, always sneaking out to shop and eat.

She got up early that day, and was dressing up and changing clothes. Lu Xiaowen waited for almost two hours.A little impatient, I walked in to see what she was doing?
I saw He Shaoguang worrying about the two flowers: "Is the peach blossom or the apricot blossom better?"

"This one." Lu Xiaowen pointed her finger and made a choice for her.

"Why?" He Shaoguang was puzzled.

"Apricot blossoms are suitable for you. And today's lip color is light, and peach blossoms are too delicate."

"You're right." He Shaoguang turned his head to look at the decal yellow in the mirror, and suddenly remembered something, "You also think my mouth is too light today? Then I will deepen it!"

"...It won't be good in half an hour, I won't take you out." Lu Xiaowen threatened with an ultimatum.

"Okay, I'll be fine soon!"

Of course, women should dress brightly when they go shopping!
He promised Lu Xiaowen with his mouth, but he cursed the stinky straight man in his heart.He Shaoguang can still put on a pure and kind expression, which shows that this person's previous appearance was trained by her.

He didn't have any other thoughts, when He Shaoguang stood at the door of the largest clothing and jewelry store in the capital, he was directly hurt by the golden light in the store.

It is a full three-story building, and the first and second floors are for girls and wives to choose at will.There is a private room on the third floor, and the distinguished guests who do not want to be disturbed can go directly to the third floor to drink tea, and their own errands will send her the favorite style to choose.

He Shaoguang had been here a few times before, and he was astounded by the prices inside.Now she is considered half a little rich, so she walked in very confidently.

"Oh, Ma'am, you are..." An enthusiastic guy came up to meet him. At first, he didn't know which wife He Shaoguang was from, but when he saw Lu Xiaowen who was following behind, he understood, "Second Madam Lu! Please come up to me, please." Private room on the third floor? Or do you like to go shopping by yourself?"

The enthusiastic little guy became even more enthusiastic. He thought of Qu Mou's shopping guide, and He Shaoguang was a little suffocated: "Let me just take a look."

Although he didn't want to buy anything at first, he couldn't resist the dazzling array of jewelry. When He Shaoguang realized it, he had already had several pieces wrapped up.

heartache.

In order to relieve the heartache, He Shaoguang, guided by the enthusiastic staff, walked to the second floor with the hem of the skirt, to check the fabrics and buy some new clothes.

Just as she was going upstairs, she met a group of elegantly dressed ladies coming down the stairs, chatting and laughing.

The leader is a girl in purple with a pointed face and willow eyebrows, followed by two people with a round face in yellow clothes and an oval face in green clothes who are somewhat familiar.

When a few people passed by He Shaoguang, the girl in purple gave her a sideways look, and suddenly said, "Isn't this the new second wife of the Lu family? Ning Lu, this is your eldest sister's successor?" He covered his mouth and smiled at her.

The woman in Tsing Yi who was called "Ning Lu" heard her, and glanced at her contemptuously: "If you take advantage of my sister, it's like flying on a branch? Those who come out of a small family are petty." It turns out that she is No wonder Jiang Ninglu, the daughter of the second wife of the Jiang family, looks a bit like Lu Mingyan.It's just that from her unfriendly tone, she doesn't have much respect for this outstanding sister-in-law.

When the two laughed wantonly, the woman in yellow on one side frowned and remained silent, as if she didn't agree with their actions.

He Shaoguang didn't want to pay attention to the two of them, he spent a lot of time making people laugh, and he didn't stop in his footsteps.

On the contrary, the woman in purple stretched out her hand and grabbed her, not letting her leave: "Is this the kind of family education in the He family? Why do you pretend not to hear us when we talk to you?"

"Why has this girl ever talked to me? My name is not Ning Lu." He Shaoguang smiled and pulled back his arm. The girl's hand was so strong that it hurt her.

"You! Do you know who I am?" The woman in purple was obviously spoiled, her willow eyebrows stood erect, and her pink face was full of anger.

"Miss Chen Wu, why are you holding on to the young general's wife?" Just now, Lu Xiaowen was checking out on the first floor, and came up a bit late, and happened to hear the conversation of several people.

He didn't have much impression of Miss Chen Wu. He only remembered that she was called Chen Yuexian. After being a hero in her family, she didn't enter the official career. She was named a marquis and gave birth to five girls.It seems that there is still some old friendship with the Lu family, and they will walk around every new year's festival.

"I haven't visited my parents for a long time, are they still okay? Why don't I visit them some other day."

Jiang Ninglu next to her was obviously frightened, and whispered, "Brother-in-law."

"Ah."

After being intimidated by Lu Xiaowen, the few people didn't say anything more. Chen Yuexian was obviously not afraid, but she was still not convinced by Jiang Ninglu's dragging her away.

"General Lu." The woman in yellow who hadn't spoken all this time called Lu Xiaowen when she walked to the stairs.

"What is the order of the county magistrate?"

"Please take good care of your wife this time." Still expressionless, He Shaoguang read a trace of sadness from her words.

She left without waiting for Lu Xiaowen's answer, and Lu Xiaowen didn't answer either.

"Is she the county lord?" He Shaoguang was curious. There are several county lords appointed by the royal family in the capital. I don't know which family she is from?

She didn't laugh at herself with them just now, obviously she didn't agree with it, but for some reason she got mixed up with these two people.

"Her name is Li Jinghe, and she is Jiang Ningyu's good friend. Her father was also a military general, and later died for the country. Her mother couldn't bear the blow, so she followed, leaving her grandmother to raise her siblings."

"Does Jiang Ninglu look very much like her cousin?" He Shaoguang suddenly remembered those familiar eyes.

Lu Xiaowen frowned: "I didn't notice it, it's just a skin."

Li Jinghe couldn't accept the death of her best friend, so she deliberately got closer to her similar sister, instead of thinking about it.It's just that this younger sister's personality is too different, so she misses her old friend even more.
