Spring is warm and fragrant

Chapter 22 The Tiger's Top Plucking
After sitting in the Duke's Mansion for half an hour, the three members of the Lu family were about to leave.

During this half an hour, Lu Mingyu had the opportunity to go around Chu Ying's boudoir. Knowing that the chance of encountering Chu Sui was extremely slim, she still couldn't help but secretly looked around on the road, wanting to see him in private one time and listen to his voice. Unfortunately, Chu Sui stayed with Lu Rong in the front yard all the time and didn't give her a chance.

"Ah Nuan will often come over to play in the future, Yingying Xiangxiang likes you." Mrs. Chu personally saw the guests off, and said to Lu Mingyu with a smile on the way.

Lu Mingyu nodded obediently, and politely invited sister Chu Ying, "You can come to me if you have time, Jixiang is going to have puppies, there may be four or five, and grandma will give it to whoever likes it, do you want it? I will write it down for you first." Jixiang is a rare dog raised by my grandmother. It is said that once my grandfather made a meritorious service, he didn't want any rewards. He only asked for this top-quality white dog from the state. It is beautiful and human. Grandma likes it very much. up.

"I don't want it, I don't like dogs, I like cats." Chu Xiang refused brittlely.

Chu Ying looked at Lu Mingyu expectantly, "Sister Ah Nuan, I want one."

Lu Mingyu smiled and said yes, "When the puppy is born, I'll let Yingying pick it first."

Chu Ying smiled sweetly.

Mrs. Chu looked at Lu Mingyu in surprise, and boasted to Xiao Shi: "A Nuan is really sensible, she looks like a big sister." Talking is really rare, no wonder even her self-willed daughter rarely plays with her.

Lu Mingyu pretended to be shy and leaned towards her mother, Xiao Shi modestly touched the top of her daughter's head, "A Nuan is still young, she learned it from her elder sister." The daughter was blessed by rebirth, Lu Jinyu, the eldest daughter of the Lu family, She really has an exquisite heart, and she has been orderly in her actions and speech since she was a child, but her own daughter is also very good, only a little less tactful than now.

The girl from the Lu family is so obedient, and Mrs. Chu is very envious.She has two daughters, the eldest daughter is calm and calm, but without Lu Mingyu's agility, the youngest daughter is unreasonable and unreasonable, and she doesn't know if she can change it back. As for the eldest daughter's niece, she is timid and weak, with a slightly emphatic tone How can she have the confidence that a girl in the government's mansion should have if she just loses the golden bumps?
While talking, a group of people came to the front yard.

The old man was not feeling well, so he sent two grandsons to see him off, so Chu Xing and Chu Sui stood in the courtyard to talk with Lu Rong.

"Uncle Cousin, we are leaving." Lu Mingyu said goodbye to Chu Xing with her little hand held by her mother, and only in this way could she have an excuse to look at the young man next to Chu Xing.

When the little girl was talking to him, Chu Xing of course wanted to look over, but unexpectedly found that Lu Mingyu's gaze was slanted towards his cousin, with big black eyes, like washed grapes, staring at his cousin eagerly, just like the time he brought his younger sister. When I went to pay homage to my parents, when my sister left, she looked at the tombstone with this kind of eyes, reluctant to part, and seemed to be about to cry.

Chu Xing was surprised and forgot to answer.

Chu Sui was also stunned, looking back at the little girl in astonishment.Doesn't this kid hate him?Why do you seem to be expecting him to hug her?
"Ah Nuan will come over to play more in the future." Chu Xing recovered first and said politely.

Lu Mingyu nodded, took one last look at Chu Sui, walked to his father's side with all his might, and took his father's hand.After her parents greeted the Chu family, she led her father out. The little girl took care of her blind father thoughtfully, no matter how she looked, she was so obedient that people wanted to hug her.

Chu Sui shook hands, next time I have a chance, I must tease this strange little girl well.

After getting into the carriage, Lu Mingyu kept his reluctance in his heart, and asked his father in a low voice, "Daddy, did uncle agree?"

Lu Rong nodded, and said to her daughter: "Shijin is a gentleman, and he must do what he says. Daddy believes in him, just in case, Ah Nuan still disguises himself, otherwise he will recognize him. We can't explain it." Said that the daughter was born with medical skills?If Chu Xing could believe it, he wouldn't be as young and promising as he is today.

Disguising is easy, since parents have considered all aspects, Lu Mingyu leaned on her mother, hugged her mother and acted like a baby, "Mom, I'm so sleepy, sleep for a while, and call me when you get home." Chu Sui was in her heart, she quickly I can't stand it anymore.

Xiao hugged her daughter, but did not expose her daughter's little lie.

Lu Mingyu buried her in her mother's arms with peace of mind, closed her eyes, Chu Sui's handsome and elegant face, and her gentle and teasing words immediately came to mind, firmly hooking her heart.How much she wanted him to hug her, she didn't need to say anything, just leaning on his chest and smelling the familiar bamboo fragrance on his body, she was satisfied.

"Ma'am, we seem to have guests at our house, and there is a carriage at the door."

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Qiuyue suddenly reminded her through the curtains.

guest?

Lu Mingyu raised her head and sat upright. Because of her young age, the car was near the door of her house again. She poked her head out and looked forward, just in time to see a girl in a green dress stepping off the carriage with lotus steps. She looked about fourteen or fifteen years old. The side face is fair and beautiful, and the wind blows, revealing her slender waistline.

Realizing that the girl was about to turn around, Lu Mingyu got back in the carriage in time, and gave her mother a complicated look, "Mother, it's Miss Chen."

Xiao Shi had a headache.My daughter said that this Miss Chen is the daughter of the subordinate of my uncle Lu Zhang, who died of illness, and my uncle sent her back, and asked his sister-in-law to arrange a good marriage for Miss Chen, but somehow, Miss Chen finally became a married woman. The concubine's room of the second uncle's brother caused a rift between the second sister-in-law and the elder sister-in-law.

Mrs. Xiao hoped that the family would be harmonious, but she first reminded her eldest sister-in-law about this matter. The elder sister-in-law might have misunderstood her unreasonable suspicion of Miss Chen's character. Was it Miss Chen who seduced the second uncle first, or did the second uncle have a wrong mind?
"Don't worry about this matter, Ah Nuan, just play with your sisters and don't talk nonsense." Xiao reminded her daughter in a low voice.

Lu Mingyu didn't want to get involved with the second uncle's romantic debt either.The second aunt has always looked down on people, and she has always disliked her mother as a concubine. Lu Mingyu would not be so vicious as to add firewood to the fire and take the initiative to give the second uncle a concubine, but she would not bother to help the second aunt solve the future concubine, let alone Lu Mingyu herself I don't think I have that ability, and there is an eyesore Mo Zhu beside my father.

The carriage stopped, Lu Mingyu jumped out first, and faced Miss Chen, Lu Mingyu curiously asked Jin Zhu, the servant girl next to her aunt, "Who is this?"

Jin Zhu didn't show any flaws on her face, she looked at Xiao Shi who had just got off the car, and said with a pleasant smile: "Fourth miss, third madam, this is Miss Chen from Jingzhou, she came to our house at the invitation of Da Furen. A few girls as companions." After speaking, he introduced Xiao's family to Miss Chen.

"Lian Shuang has met the third master, the third wife, and the fourth young lady." Chen Lian Shuang came over pretty, and politely bowed to the family of three, looked at Lu Mingyu with a smile in her eyes for a while, then lowered her eyes and stopped looking around.

Xiao Shi looked at her twice more.I have to say that Chen Lian looks very good, with bright eyes and white teeth, and smooth skin. Even wearing a thick cotton padded coat can't hide her slim figure. If she is replaced by a thin summer dress, I don't know what kind of demeanor she will have. No wonder the second lady is so beautiful. Beautiful, the second uncle will still look at others.

You can't tell your temperament just by looking at her appearance, Xiao said politely: "Ms. Chen came from a long way, and the horses and horses are exhausted. Go and greet the eldest lady first, go to rest early, and we will meet again when I have free time."

Chen Lian nodded, bowed again and followed Jin Zhu to the big room.

Lu Mingyu led his father to the third room, and asked in a low voice, "What do you think of Miss Chen's voice?"

"Forget it, it probably doesn't sound bad." Lu Rong said casually, he would not pay special attention to the voice of someone who is not related.

Lu Mingyu looked at her mother with a smile, no matter how foolish her father was, her heart for her mother was true, and she never thought of accepting a concubine to lift up her aunt.Mrs. Xiao gave her daughter an angry look, and her eyes swept across her husband's handsome face, feeling a little proud in her heart.

After lunch at noon, Lu Jun led Lu Jinyu and Lu Huaiyu to visit Lu Mingyu to play, inquire about what Lu Mingyu had seen and heard about Chu's residence, and then chat about the new guests at home.

Lu Huaiyu asked Lu Mingyu flauntingly: "Do you know why Miss Chen came to live with us?"

Lu Mingyu shook her head seriously.

Lu Huaiyu immediately learned the tongue proudly, and Lu Mingyu listened absent-mindedly. When Lu Huaiyu finished speaking, she tentatively asked Lu Jinyu, "What do you think of Ms. Chen? Is it easy to get along with? I heard that the food in Jingzhou is very different from ours in the capital. She Will you not get used to eating the food in the capital?"

Lu Jinyu liked Chen Lianshuang quite a bit, and said with a smile, "Sister Lian Shuang is very nice, beautiful and gentle. My mother ordered the kitchen to cook some Jingzhou dishes for her, and she was very polite even though she said no. It's a pity that she is getting old. , she will get married in the next two years, otherwise I really want her to stay in our house for a few more years and let us play together."

Lu Mingyu smiled wryly in her heart, if everything remained the same, Chen Lianshuang's life in the Lu family would be much longer than their sisters.

After the fun was over, the little girls went home separately. In the evening, the whole family gathered together. Mrs. Zhu held Chen Lian's hands and introduced them formally.Mrs. Zhu is pure and kind. When she learned that Chen Lian's parents had died, she was very distressed. She was sincerely happy that Chen Lian was living in her house.

Lu Mingyu quietly observed the men of the Lu family.Grandfather Lu Zhan didn't look sideways, only his grandchildren were in his eyes. The eldest uncle was not at home, and the second uncle was also very honest at the moment. He only glanced at Chen Lian Shuang when his grandmother introduced Chen Lian. His father didn't mention it. Fourth uncle Lu Xun was also upright. Noticing her peeping, he smiled at her.

Lu Mingyu looked at the second aunt who was blushing and thick-necked with Chen Lian in the previous life, but saw the second aunt staring disdainfully at the handshake between grandmother and Chen Lian, and must have laughed in her heart that grandma liked to get along with everyone.Lu Mingyu curled her lips, Second Aunt always looked down on people with low background, but in the end...

Forget it, let it be, she won't interfere.

After dinner, Lu Rong went to his father and proposed to take his wife and daughter to Zhuangzi for a month to relax.

Lu Zhan taught his sons very strictly, except for his third son who was blind. He agreed as soon as Lu Rong opened his mouth, and only asked: "Take a few more nursing homes and come back every few days. Your mother likes Ah Nuan." , It’s been too long and I’ll definitely miss it.”

"My son understands." Lu Rong said respectfully.

After the confession was made, the family of three moved to Zhuangzi early the next morning.

The appointment time with Chu Xing was at dusk, before sunset, Xiao smiled and dressed up for her daughter.First comb Lu Mingyu's hair in a manly bun, and then paint Lu Mingyu's slender eyebrows thicker and thicker. Once the black veil is covered, only the eyes and eyebrows are exposed, so even if you look at it for a while, you won't be able to recognize her.After her face recovered, Lu Mingyu changed into the gray men's robe prepared in advance, and walked around the room pretendingly, making Xiao Shi laugh again and again.

"A Nuan, are you sure this acupuncture method is also useful for Chu Xing?" Lu Rong asked solemnly.

Lu Mingyu put away her hippie smile, and said in a soft voice: "At that time, Miracle Doctor Ge was in a hurry to travel, and worried that I would not be able to learn the complicated medical principles of acupuncture and moxibustion in a short time, so he taught me the simplest acupuncture techniques, and said that as long as the eyeballs are not lost and broken , general eye diseases can be cured, but because it is not specific for a certain eye disease, the recovery will be slower."

Xiao asked again: "Then Chu Xing only has a problem with his left eye. Do you still need needles for the right eye?"

Lu Mingyu hummed, "Yes, Doctor Ge said that the two sides complement each other, and this set of acupuncture has the effect of brightening eyes, and acupuncture is beneficial and harmless even if there is no disease."

Lu Rong and Xiao Shi were finally completely relieved, otherwise they would do bad things with good intentions and harm Chu Xing.

"Third Lord, madam, the eldest son is here."

Xiao's eldest maid, Qiuyue, went to the door of the inner room and reported through the curtain.

Lu Mingyu was suddenly very nervous, that was the uncle she had revered in her previous life, and she was going to stick needles in his head and eyes?

If he misses it, will he be angry?

Uneasy, Lu Mingyu fastened her black face scarf and sat on the couch, waiting for the "patient" to come to see a doctor.

Outside the door, Lu Rong and his wife greeted Chu Xing who was dressed in normal clothes. When they reached the door, Lu Rong said in a low voice, "Mr. Ge is inside. Shi Jin will follow me in. After the ceremony, just follow the instructions of Miracle Doctor Ge."

Chu Xing nodded.

Mrs. Xiao personally picked up the curtain, Lu Rong went first, and Chu Xing followed closely behind. As soon as he entered the door, he saw an eight-panel landscape screen standing in front of the couch. Behind the screen, one could vaguely see a person sitting on the couch. high……

Because he was reminded by Lu Rong, Chu Xing was not surprised for too long, a talented and virtuous person, why bother about height and appearance.

"Junior Chu Xing, I met Mr. Ge."

Stopping in front of the screen, Chu Xing solemnly made a big gift.

Lu Mingyu squeezed his sleeves guiltily, and then said in a hoarse voice that he had practiced in advance: "Young Master Chu, you don't have to be polite, it's just that the ugly words are up front. This old man only promises to try his best to cure his illness, but not to completely cure him."

"Mister, please don't worry about giving the needle. No matter what the result is, Chu is grateful for your kindness." Chu Xing replied calmly, still bending over.

Lu Mingyu nodded, "Then close your eyes and come here. If you dare to break away without authorization, don't blame the old man for breaking the appointment and leave you alone."

Chu Xing quickly assured: "The younger generation dare not."

Lu Mingyu looked at her mother.

Mrs. Xiao gently tugged on her husband's sleeve, Lu Rong understood, confirmed that Chu Xing had closed his eyes, and he helped Chu Xing walk over.

Lu Mingyu couldn't help looking at Chu Xing, the tall and straight man came slowly, approaching like a breeze.After Chu Xing sat down in front of her, and faced the man's jade-like face at close range, Lu Mingyu realized belatedly that she had not yet made a move, and she was already covered with a thin layer of sweat.

Thinking about what she's going to do next, it's clearly...

Tai Sui breaks the ground on his head, and plucks the hair on the tiger's head.
