Lu family's daughter-in-law

Chapter 81: Stupid People Have Stupid Blessings

On the night of Qixi Festival, many men and women are destined to sneak out to meet, exciting and sweet, but for Changshun who just rushed back from Jingzhou non-stop, this year's Qixi Festival is simply his nightmare.

Zhenyuanhou Mansion.

At sunset, the first thing Changshun did when he returned home was to look for Suyue.

Su Yue is sitting in the yard eating grapes.

The master in Lengmei Pavilion is not there, she is the big maid, she is very leisurely all day long, picking a few bunches of grapes from the grape rack in the backyard to send to the old lady Hou Ye, Mrs. The work is done, and she picks a bunch of snacks for the rest every day, so she is comfortable and at ease.

Hearing Changshun calling her from afar, Su Yue thought Pei Jinghan was back, jumped up, stacked two small benches together, picked up the fruit plate and put it on the bench, hugged her and ran into the ear room .After the bench was set up and the fruit plate was placed on the table, he smiled in surprise and greeted him happily.

When he got to the door, he saw only Chang Shun alone, besieged by travel and dust.

"Where is the prince?" Su Yue looked behind him and asked suspiciously.

"The prince spent Qixi with his cousin girl in Jingzhou, and he started to go back after two days." Changshun and Suyue Ningxiang are very familiar, bypassing Suyue and stepping directly into the ear room, picked up the teapot on the table and raised his neck to mouth He poured it in and gulped it down several times.Is it easy for him to rush on the road in this hot day?
Su Yue leaned against the door and squinted at him, "Look at you like this, it seems like you haven't drunk water for three days and three nights. Why did the prince send you back first? Because of the Ningxiang?"

"You still have the nerve to mention Ningxiang, she is stupid and you are too, why don't you stop her?" Chang Shun put down the teapot with a bang, and said with wide eyes.

Su Yue snorted at him, seeing that Chang Shun narrowed her wide eyes, she rubbed her forehead, and said helplessly, "You don't know what's going on in Ningxiang's house, Amu is her lifeblood, she almost fell into the river Do you think Ningxiang can be in a hurry? Just before Shizi left, he frightened her. The two sides came together, and she insisted on going home. My mouth is worn out and it doesn’t work. What else can I do? I can’t If you rob her of her money and don't let her redeem her body? I'm so guilty that I didn't lend her money. It's easy for you to say, let her cry with you, and you will definitely give her all the money you have saved for several years. "

Chang Shun touched his nose resentfully.

Ning Xiangmei, the most beautiful thing is that pair of watery and clean eyes like a child's. Let alone crying, just frowning and looking at him pitifully, he couldn't bear to refuse Ning Xiang's request.Of course, Ningxiang rarely begged him, he just worked around Shizi, and met Ningxiang begging for Shizi a few times.

"Okay, what on earth did Shizi ask you to come back for?" Su Yue went to the table and sat down, picked up the teapot and poured him a cup of tea.

Chang Shun sighed, didn't touch the tea bowl, picked two grapes and ate them, and said after satisfying his hunger, "The prince is worried that Ningxiang will marry herself early while he is away, so I asked me to pick someone to keep an eye on her, and I will find someone in person when the prince comes back." She settles the score."

Su Yue nodded slowly, and then asked curiously: "Then who are you going to send? Let me tell you, don't send a servant, the country people are full of eyes, you make a man who stares at Ning Xiang every day, once someone finds out , Ningxiang's reputation will be ruined, and the prince will not spare you when he comes back."

"Don't worry, the prince knows it well."

Recalling the way Shizi gritted his teeth when he said those words, Changshun shook his head with a wry smile, "You said Ningxiang, when other people encountered such a beautiful thing, they were already happy and wished to serve Shizi immediately, but she hid like a wolf." The prince. How kind the prince is to her. Let’s just say this time, the prince asked me to pick a female guard who knows kung fu to serve her as a servant girl. I will keep an eye on Ningxiang so that she will not associate with other men. Someone will bully her because of her sex Ningxiang is now, and she can protect Ningxiang. The prince also specially reminded me to choose an honest person, except to look at Ningxiang every step of the way, I must listen to Ningxiang, and I am not allowed to wrong Ningxiang... Humph, I If it was a woman, which man would treat me like this, I would have given up on him long ago."

Qi returns to Qi, the prince has feelings for Ningxiang after all.

Su Yue was stunned, she didn't expect Pei Jinghan to be so thoughtful.Thinking of Pei Jinghan's gentle and complicated look peeking at Ningxiang from a distance in his previous life, it's not particularly hard to understand his arrangement now.Not to mention Ningxiang, didn't Pei Jinghan treat her very well?It is precisely because Pei Jinghan puts his heart into her that she thinks she is special, ignoring that Pei Jinghan can treat any woman he likes equally well.

"With all your heart, you're not afraid of offending Biao girl?" Su Yue said sarcastically.

This time it was Changshun's turn to be stunned, thinking of Shen Youyou's endless new methods, which captivated the eldest son in just one or two months, he obviously didn't like his aunt and the Shen family, but he was still willing to marry Shen Youyou as his wife.Such a powerful woman, once married, will she treat the maid and aunt who is favored by the prince kindly?
The prince can't see clearly in the game, but Changshun's heart is like a mirror.

Thinking of this, Chang Shun suddenly breathed a sigh of relief for Ning Xiang, and then broke into sweat again.

It's easy to leave the mansion, but it's not so easy to get rid of the prince completely.

"Speaking of which, the son still has female guards?" Su Yue was familiar with Pei Jinghan's inner house, but knew nothing about his outside affairs.

"There are all kinds of people around the prince." Changshun also distinguishes between public and private, and he will tell Suyue what he can say. If Suyue shouldn't know, he will keep his mouth shut, get up and say: "I'll pick someone first, It has to be dispatched tomorrow morning."

"Wait, you, you've made your choice, can you let me have a look?" Su Yue stopped Chang Shun worriedly, and said with all her heart: "I know what kind of temper Ning Xiang is, and what kind of person she can accept. You think, the prince is so troublesome, but in the end he wants to coax Ningxiang to come back willingly. If you pick the wrong one, Ningxiang will be disgusted by that person after he passes by. Wouldn't she be more resistant to the prince? And women understand women better, The cunning will pretend to be honest, I'm afraid you won't see it."

Changshun thought for a while, nodded, and said as he walked out, "Wait, I'll pick three first, and then I'll call you over."

Su Yue hummed lightly.

After waiting for half an hour, it was already dark, so Changshun sent a little maid over to invite her to the study in the front yard.

Su Yue nervously walked towards the front yard, nervous for her silly sister who didn't know anything.

When she arrived at the study, Su Yue first noticed the three men in black standing opposite Changshun, all of them were dressed in men's clothing, their appearance was above average, and their skin was fair. I don't know if they were fair or they were set off by the black clothes.The silhouettes and backs of the three of them were similar, and even their indifferent expressions were carved out of the same mold, as if they had never seen Su Yue's arrival.

"This, this is what you picked, honestly?" Su Yue asked incredulously, her eyes were still fixed on the three female guards, just like this, she was not going to be a maid, she was clearly going to be a door god.

"Stop talking nonsense, which one do you think is suitable?" Changshun was in a hurry, although he had the impression that Ningxiang was very responsible, but in case Ningxiang ran away with others in the middle of the night tonight, the prince would not kill him when he came back.As for the hidden guards in front of him, they were specially selected by Changshun from a group of people sent to keep an eye on them.

Su Yue stared at the three women, but she couldn't tell anything from their expressions, so she said nervously, "You guys, what are your names?"

No one paid attention to her, and the three girls didn't raise their eyelids.

Chang Shun suppressed a smile, looked at Su Yue teasingly, and said, "Let's talk."

The three girls reported their names one by one. The tallest one was called Guan Ping, the fatter one was called Guan Ning, and the prettiest one was called Guan Zhu.

The same surname only means that they are hidden guards trained by the same batch, not three sisters.

Changshun looked at Su Yue again.

Su Yue gritted her teeth and ordered Guan Ping.This one is the tallest, and her name doesn't look like a girl, so Ningxiang should be the most suspicious.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, Changshun sent the second daughter who was not selected to go down, and then handed a paper contract to Guan Ping in front of Su Yue, and said coldly: "This is your contract of selling yourself, tomorrow morning you pretend to be The fleeing girl fainted at the door of Ningxiang's house. After seeing her, she secretly revealed her identity, and then gave her the contract of sale, saying that the prince sent you to serve her. If she doesn't stay, you have to stay, but you can't let the rest of the Xu family Doubt your origin. In addition, you have to guard her every step of the way, if Ningxiang is in contact with a man with a different surname, you don't have to stop it, just report it to the crown prince afterwards."

"Your subordinate obeys." Guan Ping knelt down on one knee, and reached out to accept his contract of prostitution.

Chang Shun finally instructed: "From tomorrow onwards, Ning Xiang will be your master. Except for what your son wants you to do, you must obey Ning Xiang's orders in everything else, and you must not be disrespectful to Ning Xiang."

Guan Ping did not squint, and said in a loud voice, "This subordinate understands."

Chang Shun hummed, and let her go.Su Yue was in a hurry, she ran a few steps to stand in front of Guan Ping, and showed her most sincere smile to the expressionless female guard, "Miss Guan, Ning Xiang has a simple mind, sometimes she doesn't even know that she has offended the prince." taboo, if she does something wrong, you can remind her first, don't rush to report to the prince, okay?"

"Master made a mistake, I should have reminded him." Guan Ping said coldly, then walked around Su Yue and left overnight.

Su Yue turned around and watched her off, until she was out of sight, then she complained to Chang Shun irritably, "It's no wonder the Xu family doesn't suspect her like this!"

Chang Shun wasn't worried, and said with a smile: "If Guan Ping can't even fool a few countrymen, she would have died long ago."

died?

Su Yue shivered uncontrollably.

In the dark night, some people are on the road all night, some people are immersed in beautiful dreams, time goes by little by little, and the sky will be bright again.

In the northeast corner of Liuxi Village, Xu Huai pushed open the south door of the kitchen while yawning amidst the resounding crowing of cocks.Stepping over the threshold, he stretched vigorously, and when he was walking towards the hut, he casually glanced at the west courtyard, and seeing that the door over there was tightly closed, he knew that his cousin was still awake.

Relieved, Xu Huai went to open the door of his own house first.

After opening it, I couldn't help going out for a walk, but when I turned my head, I saw a ragged beggar leaning against the door of my cousin's house!

He lowered his head disheveledly, as if falling asleep.

Xu Huai frowned, it was not a good omen to encounter beggars blocking the door of the house early in the morning.

Going back to the kitchen, he took a rough-faced steamed bun from the cupboard from last night, and picked up two Qiaoguo. Xu Huai strode out, and when he arrived at the door of his cousin's house, he lightly kicked the beggar's calf twice. , "Wake up, I'll give you food." After eating, leave quickly.

The beggar didn't respond.

Xu Huai increased his strength, but the beggar remained silent.

Shouldn't he be dead?

Startled, Xu Huai squatted down with the steamed bun Qiaoguo in his mouth, and shook the beggar's shoulder with his hand, "Wake up!"

Probably the strength was too great, and the beggar fell directly to the ground.Xu Huai thought that this person was really dead, so he didn't help him. He watched him lying on the ground, and the dirty hair that covered the beggar's face fell to the sides, revealing a dirty girl's face. With long eyebrows and a straight nose, even though she is embarrassed, it can be seen that this girl is good-looking.

Xu Huai didn't expect that it was a girl, so she couldn't help being stunned, and after a while she came back to her senses, suppressing the panic in her heart, and leaned over to check her breath.

Just when his fingers were about to touch her white, unstained body, the people on the ground suddenly opened their eyes, and their calm and sharp gazes, like feathered arrows aimed at the target long ago, directly hit him.

Xu Huai shivered suddenly, like the cold wind blowing in front of you when you open the window in winter, completely uncontrollable.

When he started to feel ashamed, when he hoped that the girl on the ground would not notice his gaffe and looked over, he saw that the other party closed his eyes again, remained motionless, and seemed to have passed out.

It was important to save people, so Xu Huai temporarily put the food on the stone beside him, bent down, and firmly hugged the person horizontally.

The man was in a hurry to walk home, but he didn't notice that the girl in his arms frowned slightly.
