Ma'am, I was wrong

As soon as Liu Yanshu stepped out of the door, she saw Lu Tingwan standing by the well struggling to fetch water. She was thinking about Ayan's question to her just now.

She said why she had to put the mother and daughter of Duke Ding's Mansion under her nose. Since she saved them, she could let them go and let them choose a new path for themselves.

With Lu Tingwan's intelligence and talent, he will definitely find a better way out for himself.

It is true that Liu Yanshu agrees with Su Yan's words very much, but since she did this, she also has her own reason, the reason is very simple.

Because she and Lu Tingwan used to be close friends, and they were each other's close friends. At that time, Liu Yanshu could hardly go anywhere and could only stay at home all day.

At this time, it was Lu Tingwan who took the initiative to come to find her, and relying on the kindness of the past, Liu Yanshu couldn't possibly let them fend for themselves.

For her, letting Lu Tingwan, the helpless daughter of the harem, out was tantamount to self-destruction, so she might as well leave her here.

What's more, Su Yan has already explained to her the next plan, since this is the case, help is indispensable, and the Lu family of Dingguo Duke's Mansion is the best help.

The prestige they once possessed cannot be wiped out in a short time, not to mention, brother Lu Jiuan was very smart since he was a child, but at that time, Duke Ding wanted Lu Jiuan to try his hand as a civil servant.

Perhaps, at that time, Ding Guogong had thought of the current situation, and the tree was so big that they would perish sooner or later in the hands of His Majesty.

However, no one thought that this day would come so soon, not even Liu Yanshu thought that they would meet again.

Liu Yanshu pursed her lips, and walked towards Lu Tingwan who was fetching water.

Standing beside the well, Lu Tingwan saw the Eldest Young Master approaching, and said respectfully, "I have seen the Eldest Young Master." At the same time, he blessed his body.

Liu Yanshu stood firmly in front of Lu Tingwan, with her hands slightly behind her back, looking at the woman in front of her who had not changed her upbringing in the boudoir.

I can't help feeling in my heart that some people have changed over time, and eventually they don't even know themselves, for example, herself, Liu Yanshu, now she hardly dares to mention anything about the person 'Xie Shu'.

Even if there is a little bit of involvement, it will be regarded as your perspective of the bystander.

But for some people, no matter what they have experienced, the rules of etiquette seem to be deeply engraved in their minds, and they will never forget them.

"Besides your brother, your mother, and your own family, are there anyone else living in the world?" Liu Yanshu asked.

Lu Tingwan was stunned for a moment, never expecting the eldest son to ask this question, but how did the eldest son know that her elder brother is her elder brother, not her younger brother.

After thinking about it for a while, he said slowly, "Everyone in the family is dead, and we are the only ones left."

Hearing this, Liu Yanshu had been prepared for a long time, but she was not too surprised. After all, it is common for people to push the wall down, and it is a bit sad to think about the matter of rabbit dead dog cooking.

Nodding slightly, he said cautiously, "Is this journey safe?"

Lu Tingwan raised his eyes slightly, and looked carefully at the person in front of him. A look of astonishment flashed in his eyes. It was not difficult to hear concern and doubts in the eldest son's voice. Unfortunately, it was too much for me to see dirty things along the way. There are too many, and I no longer have the daughter's thoughts of the past.

I don't know if it's because I haven't heard such concern for a long time, but I was still a little confused when I heard it at first, I lowered my brows, my eyes were silent, and said respectfully: "Well."

Liu Yanshu hesitated for a moment and nodded uncertainly.

The simple two words are the answer in exchange for a long time of silence. You don't need to think about it to know that it is not good at all. You can't help scolding yourself, what is the question.

She's just a little timid, she hasn't seen each other for many years, and she just wants to ask if the other party is doing well?
However, she forgot that she was no longer the clever girl 'Xie Shu' from before, but Liu Yanshu, and the person in front of her was no longer the lively and lovely girl from before.

As time passed, they all changed.

Only the heart that was still beating subconsciously took itself back to the past, trying to use the tone of the past to ask about the other party's relationship.

"How's the embroidery?" Liu Yanshu stepped forward and asked.

She had discussed with Su Yan just now, since she refused to reveal her identity, she must have a different attitude towards the mother and daughter of the Lu family, and she couldn't treat them like guests or relatives and make them do nothing.

They have to do something, but the work must not be too heavy to tire them, nor too light to arouse their suspicion, it must be just right.

Lu Tingwan was a little confused, so since the eldest son asked, and now she sold herself as a servant, she still answered honestly: "It's not too good, and it's not too bad."

Hearing this, Liu Yanshu knew that Lu Tingwan was being modest. When she was young, her embroidery skills were several times better than her own. At that time, she loved books and read them all day long, but Lu Tingwan didn't like dancing with knives. Swords don't like things in books either, they only like embroidery.

Therefore, Duke Dingguo also invited a special embroiderer to teach Lu Tingwan.

"Then what would your mother write?"

As an employer, he needs to know what the people he invites to work are capable of doing things. Although Liu Yanshu dare not order Aunt Zhou around, she still has to behave as she should.

Hearing this, Lu Tingwan's folded hands clenched slightly, especially the hand underneath. The sharp nails instantly pierced the skin. He took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and then slowly Open.

Her mother had just told her that compared to being prostitutes and the like, now they were bought and became slaves and maids. Although their status was lower, they still survived in the end.

This is already a blessing among misfortunes.

Lu Tingwan knew it was the same, thinking that if the eldest son ordered something, he would have to endure the temper of the former eldest lady, and he must know what it means to adapt to the current situation.

But, all this collapsed quietly when the eldest son asked about her mother. How innocent her mother was. She raised them at an age when they should have enjoyed their old age, but now...
Lu Tingwan took a deep breath, tried to calm down the bitterness in his heart, and said: "Mother will read some books, and also do some scattered things."

My father's instructions kept ringing in my ears, to live well.

Lu Tingwan's almost choked voice sounded next to her ear, and Liu Yanshu lowered her eyebrows. Now she doesn't want to think about all this, but there are some things that must be experienced again.

She said silently in her heart: I hope the person in front of me will never blame herself.
