Nongmen Jinfeng: Cold-noodled husband and little daughter-in-law

Chapter 337
So he deliberately got up and walked a few steps, saying something like this.Sure enough, I heard a rustle of cloth outside the door, and the corner of the clothes finally disappeared. Listening carefully, I could hear slight footsteps moving quickly and going away.

So you know how to sneak around on tiptoe?hehe.

In the hall, Mrs. Lu Qin was drinking tea slowly, listening to the maid's whispered report, her brows could not help but frown tightly.

"Did you hear me right? They have two big carriages? How many horses are there? More than 1000 taels of silver?"

"Yes, ma'am. They still have a big house and a big garden in the county town. It's a few thousand taels." The maid added proudly, showing that she had heard every word.

"Why are these mud legs so rich? Could it be a windfall?" Lu Qinshi lowered her eyes and murmured, because she couldn't think of any other reason besides this one.

Mud legs are mud legs, so what if he has the fame of a scholar and a child?He didn't become an official, he didn't receive a salary from the imperial court, and it would be nice to be able to eat his stomach with the little grain dug out from the ground, and still buy a house in the county?Still buying a carriage?Dream it!

"Maybe it's just bragging, to save face for his sister, for fear of being looked down upon by my mother. Hmph." Thinking of this reason, Lu Qinshi couldn't help sneering, "You really are ignorant!"

The maid lowered her head and stopped talking, but quietly stuck out her tongue.She didn't know whether she was bragging or not, so how dare she say anything else?

"Go to the door and see, why hasn't the young master brought the young lady back?" Lu Qinshi took another sip of tea, placed the white porcelain tea bowl on the table, and ordered slowly.

It wasn't that she was worried that her daughter was going back to her mother's house late, but that she didn't want the Fang family to stay at home and look annoying.

Xuan'er and Hua'er, her niece from her mother's family, were originally married by their stomachs. Unfortunately, when Xuan'er became an adult, his father fell ill again.

The family situation is no longer as rich as before, she really wanted Hua'er to marry in as soon as possible, but her natal sister-in-law disagreed, saying that her daughter was still young and wanted to stay for two more years.

In the end, one year later, Xuan'er's father let go, and Xuan'er had to keep mourning for three years, so her natal sister-in-law came and divorced, saying that after three years, her daughter would be an old lady, so it's better to leave early, don't delay Let her find a good family.

At that time, the family was weak, so they had no choice but to rely on her sister-in-law to break off the marriage contract.In the past three years, the Lu family has been peaceful in the heat of filial piety. Although the family situation has become worse than before, the two sons are very motivated and study hard.

She didn't have anything to covet at first, as long as her son can be named on the gold list and realize his father's unfulfilled dream, she will be fulfilled.

Later, when the filial piety period ended, Xuan'er suddenly told her that she wanted to marry the daughter of his father's old friend. She immediately objected when she heard that she was a peasant girl.Even if Xuan'er is getting old now, he is still Juren's son, a child born, and will soon go all the way to high school.

As long as she looks for a matchmaker now, is she afraid that she won't find a good wife?However, Xuan'er was determined to marry the peasant girl, and didn't listen to her at all, so she had no choice but to let him go.

But this peasant girl entered the Lu family, and her mother-in-law would never be satisfied.I went back to my mother's house in the first month of this year, and I heard that Hua'er was divorced by her husband's family years ago, and she is crying at her mother's house.

She didn't intend to be pitiful at first, after all, they were the ones who broke the contract first.But her natal sister-in-law later said that if the Lu family was willing to resume the engagement, she would use a shop as a dowry for the painting.

She was immediately moved.

Her natal family is a big family in the county town, and there are several shops at home, but her husband's family only has one private school in the town. Now that the master Juren is gone, I don't know how long this private school can last.

If there is this shop, the Lu family's future livelihood will also be settled, and the two sons will go to the county school after being admitted as a scholar, so there will be a place to live, right?

So after returning home, she found this peasant girl more and more distasteful. If Xuan'er hadn't been protecting her, she would have been divorced long ago.

However, in the marriage system of Dongli Kingdom, it is advocated that men and women are their own masters, and the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers are not important.If Xuan'er doesn't let go, she has nothing to do.

She also tried to persuade Xuan'er to take a concubine, and also wanted to send a girl to Xuan'er's room, but they all failed.This is the first time she has seen such a disobedient son.

It's all the good work of that muddy peasant girl. I didn't expect her to have the potential to be a vixen.

Whenever thinking of this, Lu Qin's teeth itch with hatred.Now, how dare the Fang family brag about their wealth in their Lu family?How funny!
Lu Qinshi got up suddenly, and was blown out of the door like a gust of wind, and stood on the steps outside the main room, cursing at the top of her voice.

"Lu Yunyi, you brat! Your eldest brother hasn't come back yet and you don't know how to go and see him. Why are you so ignorant? You just know how to be lazy! Don't think that you are a child, and you can be arrogant in front of your old lady!"

Lu Qinshi scolded refreshingly, with a sneer of disdain on her face, and she didn't know if the last sentence was really about her son, or about Fang Zijian?

In the small hall of the east chamber, Fang Zijian frowned, and Lu Yunyi lost his temper when he heard this, stood up from the corner of the wall and was about to run out.

"Second brother!" Fang Caiyun quickly stopped him and advised, "Don't play with your mother, let alone it's a holiday."

Husband has been away for so long and he should be back. It would be bad if Yunque and his wife saw the noise at home as soon as they entered the door.

"Understood, sister-in-law, I was also going to see why my eldest brother hasn't come back." Lu Yunyi curled his lips, but nodded in agreement.

As soon as Lu Yunyi left, Fang Zijian said casually: "Caiyun, are you ready? Go outside with elder brother to wait in the carriage. Our carriage is comfortable."

They had already considered that Caiyun was pregnant, and the one-hour journey might be very hard, so they asked Third Aunt to prepare some quilts last night, and spread them in the carriage early this morning, as well as some pillows and soft pillows.

Fang Caiyun was silent for a while, then said: "Okay, brother, come and help me get things."

Before the brothers and sisters could leave the door, they heard a noise coming from the gate of the courtyard.

"The young master is back!" The young man who had been waiting outside the door to check the situation shouted happily.

"Eldest young master has worked hard all the way, this servant is going to serve you tea!"

"Eldest young master, this servant will wipe your sweat off!"

Lu Qin's two servant girls rushed over excitedly, regardless of whether Lu Yunxuan got out of the donkey cart or not, they competed to show courteousness to him.That appearance can be described as a Huaichun girl.

Fang Zijian stood in front of the door of the east chamber with his hands behind his back, watching the excitement at the entrance of the courtyard with cold eyes, and frowned again.

"Brother, my husband is back, we can go." Seeing Lu Yunxuan's return, Fang Caiyun didn't go forward to meet him, but the smile on his face showed unconsciously.
