Spring is warm and fragrant

Chapter 68 Peach Blossoms
"A Nuan, this is your cousin He Jiali."

Seeing the granddaughter staring at the congratulatory gift, Zhu smiled and introduced that the granddaughter doesn't remember the congratulatory gift anymore.

But Lu Mingyu remembered it very clearly.

He Li is sixteen this year, he is the eldest son of the Marquis of Wukang, and also the nephew of the second aunt.At that time, Mrs. Wukanghou gave birth to a congratulatory gift. Wukanghou was ordered by the emperor to go to war. It is said that the vital point between his legs was injured on the battlefield. Outsiders don't know what the injury is. They only know that after returning from the battlefield, Wukanghou will never be able to again. Let wives and concubines give birth to other children.

He Li became the only heir of the eldest son of the He family. He was raised by Mrs. Wukanghou as a treasure since he was a child, and he dared not scold or beat him, for fear that something would happen to his only son.Other children would probably develop a domineering temper if they were pampered like this, but He Li was sensible and sensible, without the slightest dandyism.

He Li and Lu Huaiyu were childhood sweethearts. In the previous life, Lu Huaiyu happily married. Lu Mingyu was also sincerely happy for her second sister. She felt that her second sister would have a very comfortable life when she married her favorite cousin. In the second year, because the second sister failed to diagnose the good news, her own aunt, Mrs. Wukanghou, actually made the decision and gave her son a room.

He Li was filial to his mother, and failed to refuse once, so he took the aunt sent by his mother back to the yard.

How could Lu Huaiyu bear such grievances, she packed up some clothes in a fit of anger, and took her maid back to her mother's house.

At that time, Lu Mingyu had just married Chu Sui not long ago. When she heard about this, as a sister, Lu Mingyu immediately went home to find out what was going on, and entered the house with her eldest sister Lu Jinyu.The three sisters got together, and Lu Huaiyu cried and cursed and explained the ins and outs. Lu Mingyu was a newlywed, and she was not very good at persuading such things, so she sat aside and listened to the eldest sister Lu Jinyu's calm advice. My elder sister respects her mother-in-law on the surface, and treats her husband well behind her back. As long as He Li's heart is fastened, as long as He Li doesn't go to sleep in the aunt's house, it's useless for Mrs. Wukanghou to send a few more aunts.

Even so, Lu Mingyu was still wronged for the second sister, if Chu Sui didn't send a aunt to come back after saying hello, Lu Mingyu would definitely make trouble too.But everyone has been brought back, Lu Mingyu can only hope that the elder sister's method will work, hope that He Li will be devoted to the second elder sister, and stop making the second elder sister sad.

The two elder sisters persuaded her, and the second aunt also persuaded her, but the second elder sister didn't listen, she just didn't want to go back. He Li came to the door for three consecutive days before coaxing the second elder sister back home.In the end, it was useless for half a month, and the second sister went back to her mother's house again, because the aunt took advantage of her going out to be a guest, dressed up and presented tea to the congratulatory room, and this bowl of tea, according to the maid, was enough for the congratulatory gift. Half an hour long.

He Li accepted him, and the second sister confronted him in tears, but He Li actually said that if he spread his branches and leaves earlier, his mother would stop meddling in the affairs of their husband and wife's house.

What he said seemed to be for the sake of harmony between the young couple in the future, but everyone knew that he must be interested in that aunt.From that day on, He Li and Second Sister lived a life of chaos, Second Sister was suffocating, she could find mistakes in whatever He Li did, and He Li had a new love, gradually she didn't care whether Second Sister was angry or not, The second sister made trouble, so he hid with his aunt.

Until Lu Mingyu died, the couple did not reconcile.

So seeing the gentleman's congratulatory gift again, Lu Mingyu couldn't even look down on him, even Mrs. Wukanghou who was sitting next to the second aunt.The second aunt is enough to be defiant, and this Mrs. Wukanghou is even more arrogant and ignorant. Seeing her sitting here, one should know that the five of them are coming back today, reunited after a long absence, and there must be endless things to say about the family reunion, Wukang If Mrs. Hou knew a little bit of etiquette, she should have taken her son back long ago.

Intentionally sarcasm, but didn't want to waste her tongue because of these people, Lu Mingyu stood up straight, nodded slightly to He Li, "Biao Li."

"Fourth cousin." He Li had put away his amazed eyes, and said politely, his gaze fell on Lu Mingyu's skirt, where a bright plum blossom was embroidered there, very similar to Lu Mingyu, blooming proudly and outshining others.

He Li's throat moved.

Today he accompanied his mother to Lu's house as a guest, and he knew that his mother wanted him to marry his cousin Huaiyu.Although the cousin has a bit of a temper, but the cousin is very beautiful, He Li is very willing to marry her, but just now Lu Mingyu ran in with a smile, her face like a bright moon and her eyes like autumn water, she threw herself into the arms of the old lady of the Lu family and acted like a baby, her voice was sweet, like a Sprinkling sweet-scented osmanthus on his heart, He Li suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart, and couldn't help but take a second look.

In terms of beauty, this fourth cousin named Ah Nuan is the most beautiful among the Lu family girls.

"Auntie, why don't you seem to have changed at all, you are exactly the same as when I left." Throwing down the congratulatory gift, Lu Mingyu came to the eldest lady and called out affectionately.

The eldest lady smiled and supported her niece's shoulders, and looked carefully, "Ah Nuan's mouth is still so sweet. My aunt is getting old, unlike Ah Nuan, the longer she is, the better-looking she is, which compares to your elder sister."

"Big sister, don't listen to my big aunt's nonsense, big sister is the prettiest in my heart." Lu Mingyu immediately went to Lu Jinyu next to her, flattered playfully, and immediately whispered: "I heard that big sister is engaged? Tell me quickly, which family will my future eldest brother-in-law belong to?"

A faint blush appeared on Lu Jinyu's usually calm face, she gave He Li a sideways glance, and signaled her sister to turn around and say something close to her.

Lu Mingyu stood side by side with the eldest sister, and secretly exchanged a look with the eldest aunt.

The niece doesn't like Mrs. Wukanghou's mother and son, so why does the eldest lady like a person who looks down on her, so she couldn't open her mouth before, but now there are more and more people in the main room, so the eldest lady turned to her sister-in-law, and said with a smile to the second lady: "brother and sister , The family of the third brother and sister just came back, there are many children, and there is a lot of chaos here, why don't you accompany Mrs. Hou to your side first?"

The second lady looked at Lu Rong and his wife who were walking this way in the yard, and secretly clutched the handkerchief.

The three-bedroom family hasn't been back for several years. The second lady wanted to see what Xiao's children look like, and to see if Lu Rong brought back concubines and concubines. The daughter is still beautiful, Brother Heng is white and fat, and his body is very strong at first glance, Xiao Shi has not aged at all, and is still the most beautiful.

I didn't see the excitement I wanted to see, and I remembered the two new aunts my husband had brought up in the past few years.

"Mother, let's go first." Lu Huaiyu was talking to Lu Mingyu and Lu Jinyu. The sisters reunited after a long absence, and she hasn't had enough.

The second wife pursed her lips, ignoring her daughter, and glanced at the concubine Lu Yan. Seeing Lu Yan lowering her head nervously, the second wife didn't even bother to pay attention, and left with Mrs. Wukanghou and He Li.When going out, I greeted Lu Rong and his wife at the door for a while.

At this point, there were no outsiders in the main room.

Mrs. Zhu hugged Brother Heng and Brother Nian at the same time, both of them were very rare.Mrs. Xiao and his wife and sister-in-law sat together, chatting softly about the women's concerns, while Lu Rong talked with two nephews, Lu Jiaping and Lu Jiaan, asking about their homework and kung fu, and the little maids came and went to serve tea. Water, the spacious hall seems to be smaller all of a sudden.

The four sisters of Lu Mingyu moved to the corridor. Today is a fine day, and the little girl is sitting in the sunny position in the corridor, and she doesn't feel cold.

"A Nuan, our eldest brother-in-law is Xu Chengrui, the second son of Mr. Xu's family, the servant of the Ministry of War." Lu Huaiyu likes to reveal the details of the sisters the most, and rushes to tell the fourth sister who has just returned to Beijing.

Lu Mingyu teased the elder sister who was blushing, "Elder sister, is Second Master Xu good-looking?"

"As you say, you will have this day sooner or later." Although Lu Jinyu's face was red, she did not lose the momentum of the eldest sister, sitting there upright, her watery eyes swept over the three younger sisters one by one, looking like a gentleman, it is not too late to take revenge for ten years look like.

Lu Mingyu chuckled, but she was happy for her eldest sister in her heart.

The eldest brother-in-law, Xu Chengrui, is a handsome man, five years older than the elder sister. He had no official position when they got married, but he will soon work as an errand in the Jinwu Guard.He is good-looking and capable, and the most rare thing is that Xu Chengrui is very kind to his elder sister. Lu Mingyu still remembers that every time the eldest sister returns to her natal home, as long as Xu Chengrui is not on duty, she will be by her side. The eldest sister stayed at her mother's house for a while, and he came to pick her up in the evening.The only flaw is that Xu Chengrui has a sister-in-law who is not easy to get along with. The eldest sister married her and had a few tricks with her. She won many times, but also lost. Fortunately, it was a small problem and did not affect the eldest sister and her husband. Secretly sweet.

"By the way, where's aunt?" After chatting for a while, Lu Mingyu finally thought of her aunt.

"My aunt feels sick to her stomach today." Lu Jinyu just remembered, and blamed herself angrily, "Look at me, my aunt told you to come back and find her early, I forgot, Ah Nuan, go quickly, aunt misses you so much, I must look forward to it It's got a long neck."

Lu Mingyu laughed and heyed, stood up, took two steps forward, turned back to the main room, called her two younger brothers, and then brought her two younger brothers and Fifth Uncle, who insisted on joining in the fun, to see her aunt.My aunt will get married in April next year, so she won't be staying at home for long.

A morning passed in the sound of reminiscing about the past.

At noon, the family of five had dinner in Ning'an Hall.

Returning to the third room after dinner, Lu Mingyu was a little sleepy, saying goodbye to her parents and going back to her plum garden.

Seeing her husband carrying the youngest son into the house, Mrs. Xiao remembered something, turned her head and told her daughter: "A Nuan, we have to go to the palace this afternoon, please be careful not to oversleep." After going out for so long, Mrs. Xiao didn't think about the prince's father, But she wants to kiss her younger brother Xiao Congjian, and her younger brother's sons and daughters.Mrs. Xiao is a good aunt who brought a cart full of presents to her nephew and niece from Jiangnan.

Lu Mingyu paused, and the figure of his cousin Xiao Huan appeared in his mind.

She turned around slowly and looked at her mother pleadingly, "Mother, can I not go?"

Xiao thought her daughter was being lazy, and sneered, "If you don't go, you won't go. Your uncle and aunt asked, and I said you don't want them."

"Don't, don't, don't let me go!" Lu Mingyu didn't dare to talk anymore, and quickly agreed.

"Why doesn't the girl want to go to the palace?" On the way back to Meiyuan, Longan asked wonderingly.

Lu Mingyu sighed, she missed her grandfather, uncle, and cousins, but she was afraid of Xiao Huan, in case Xiao Huan hadn't forgotten her...

Being obsessed with someone she doesn't like, it's tiring to think about it.
