The ultimate rebirth of the abandoned woman

Chapter 231 Cousin ([-])
"...The Iron Lady also said that after Mr. Lu Ping passed away, Lord Lu Fuling went back to Lu's hometown for burial. The elders of the Lu family saw that Mr. Lu only had one daughter, so they proposed to Mr. Lu to adopt a son... Mr. Lu refused, but Lu Langjun's eldest brother came from other places when he heard the news of the funeral. He knew that his younger brother had no heirs, and he also agreed to adopt him. He also said that he and his second brother had several children, but he could adopt one to the third brother..."

Yuzhu's news is very well-informed, Xiao Nan just went to the main courtyard to accompany two distant guests to have a cup of tea, and when she came back to change clothes, she had already investigated the current situation of Lu County's mother and daughter.

"Oh, it seems that Mr. Lu left behind a lot of family property."

Xiao Nan spread his arms and let Yuhan help her take off her outer robe.

"Mother Qiu said that Mrs. Lu was a very 'capable' person back then, and she presided over the mid-career in Lu's family for nearly 20 years."

Although everyone in the room is their own people, there are some things that cannot be said too clearly.

Xiao Nan understood, and let out a long "oh"—well, it seems that when Mrs. Lu was in charge of the family, she often put the Lu family's family property into her "private house". A lot of hands and feet.

Seeing that Xiao Nan understood her hint, Yuzhu also smiled, and continued: "In addition, Mr. Lu's elder brother and sister-in-law have two sons, and the eldest son is three years older than Mrs. Lu. They want to marry Mrs. Lu. Kiss and kiss—”

"But Lord Lu is not very satisfied?!"

Almost without thinking, Xiao Nan guessed the answer.

In fact, it is not difficult to guess, the Dugu family is a descendant of the Tang Dynasty, but the Empress Yuanzhen was originally conferred, and she passed away for decades, so she could not be kind to the Yin clan.

The Dugu Clan is in decline, and Lord Lu's elder brother is probably not much better. If he is lucky enough to be in the family, he is only a small official of the eighth or ninth rank.And Lu Xianjun is the rank of the county lord, and he is the imperial wife of the fifth rank. According to the regulations of the Tang Dynasty, it can be inferred that Lu Ping's official position is definitely not lower than the fifth rank.

He is a fifth-rank imperial order and has a lot of property in his hands. It is reasonable for Mr. Lu to want to find a better husband's family for his daughter.

"The princess is right again," Yuzhu nodded admiringly, and then said: "When Mr. Lu cried to the old lady, Mother Qiu listened to it. Although she didn't go into details, she probably knew the whole thing. A bit. Speaking of it, Lord Lu came to the capital because he had no other choice. This is what Lord Lu Ping left behind when he passed away, saying that if someone bullies their mother and daughter after he passed away, he will let them go to Beijing to join the old lady .”

Xiao Nan raised his eyebrows, noncommittal.

That's right, Mr. Lu county is indeed pitiful: the people from her husband's family are jealous of her family property and force her to adopt her son; Wealth and wealth.

However, the authenticity of the deceased husband's last words mentioned by Mr. Lu County has yet to be determined.

If she guessed correctly, Lu Ping might have mentioned the relationship between his family and the Cui family to Mr. Lu, but he would never say the words to let them 'go to' the old lady—what are you kidding, the Lu family is not a small family. Husband, there are still brothers and cousins ​​after the death of the husband, and there are clans after the death of all the men in the family. Even if Lu Ping loves his wife and daughter to the point of brain damage, he would not dare to tell his wife loudly to make them abandon the Lu clan. Dedicated to others with a different surname.Because Lu Ping knew that once the clansmen found out, the mother and daughter of the Lord of Lu County would most likely be expelled from the clan, and all the family property would be confiscated by the clan.

The reason why Mr. Lu said this to the old lady is nothing more than to remind the old lady that the Cui family still owes the Lu family a favor, especially that his own mother-in-law, the Lu family, married into the Lu family with the old lady as a matchmaker... and finally reached the point of asking the old lady The purpose of taking in their mother and daughter.

After thinking about it, Xiao Nan suddenly changed the subject, "Has Mr. Lang returned from seeing off the guests?"

Cui Lingxi's birthday party ended in the afternoon. Because of the curfew these days, it's not easy to invite guests to have dinner at home, so the general banquet is at noon, unless you want to keep guests staying, you will have dinner in the evening.

The banquet was over, and Cui Da, as the host, came to see off the guests in Cui's Hotel in person.

It has been more than an hour now, and it stands to reason that he should come back.

Just as she was talking, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door, and the maidservant at the door raised her voice and said: "My lady, the lord is back."

Xiao Nan signaled Yuzan to quickly change into her new clothes for meeting guests, fastened her belt, and came out to welcome her.

"Lang Jun, have all the guests been sent away?"

"Well, they're all gone," Cui Da rubbed the center of his brows wearily, but when he raised his eyes, he saw Xiao Nan coming out in formal attire, and he couldn't help but asked with some doubts: "Huh? The guests are all gone, why does the lady still want to Changing clothes? Are you still going out?"

Xiao Nan took a cup of tea soup from Yulian, and handed it to Cui Da himself, "Your Excellency doesn't know yet, the Lu family's aunt and cousin are here, and they are at Grandma's place now, and we are going to have a banquet with them later. .”

Cui Da was taken aback, Lu family?Could it be grandma, oh no, a relative of my great-uncle's family?

It shouldn't be, if it is a relative of the uncle's family, it should be in the Rongkang Hall next door at this moment, not their Rongshou Hall.

When Cui Da first heard this surname, he subconsciously thought of Mrs. Lu's wife, and didn't think about anything else at all.

Seeing Cui Da's confused face, Xiao Nan hurriedly explained the origins of Cui and Lu's family, and then mentioned the recent situation of Lu County's mother and daughter, and finally suggested with a little hesitation: "Grandma always feels indebted After coming to Lu’s house, and now they have come from such a long distance, in my opinion, it’s better to invite them to live in our house. Our place is big and there are few people, so they can live comfortably here.”

Since it is a fact that cannot be hidden, instead of letting others tell it, it is better to speak up yourself, so that you can gain a good reputation for generosity.

Cui Dayi couldn't help but sigh when he heard that the two families still have such a long history.Then he heard Xiao Nan's suggestion, and nodded hurriedly: "My lady is more considerate. The Lu family is a prominent family, and the aunt and cousin who wanted to visit us didn't come to us because of poverty. They must use our family's reputation to suppress everyone Suppress those villains who have a wrong heart... This lady's suggestion is very good."

After Cui Da said these words, Xiao Nan couldn't help but look at him differently.It seems that Cui Da did not stay in Dali Temple in vain these days, and he also knows that he has experienced all kinds of things in the world.

Hehe, I really want to thank Wang Lang very much. Next time when I deliver lunch to Cui Da, I will order a few special dishes for Wang Lang to taste.

After Cui Da finished drinking the tea soup, Xiao Nan urged: "It's getting late, we should go to the main hall to meet guests, so that Mr. Lu can greet Aunt Lu's Biao."

After drinking a cup of tea soup, Cui Da also felt much better. He pinched the Jingming acupoint and said: "Well, by the way, I will also tell my grandma about today's birthday party. By the way, where is A Yuan?"

Having not seen his daughter for a day, Cui Da missed him very much, and now he did not see that familiar little figure, so he couldn't help asking.

"She has tossed and tossed all day, and now she fell asleep."

Xiao Nan and Cui Da walked out of the hall together, and walked towards the main courtyard. While walking, Xiao Nan carefully explained the situation of Cui Lingxi's arrest today.

In the end, Xiao Nan complained: "Mr. Lang, you said that this girl is really good. She practiced well on weekdays, but she messed around at critical moments, almost making people laugh."

Cui Da laughed when he heard it, "Haha, this is my daughter, she is cute and cute, hahaha..."

Xiao Nan rolled his eyes, and shouted in feigned anger: "Mr. Lang!"

Cui Damang stopped laughing, and stretched out his hand to pretend to be suing, "Okay, okay, I won't laugh anymore, puchi, then what, didn't our A Yuan grab the painting and pen in the end, this is also a good sign."

From the corner of Xiao Nan's eyes, he caught someone's shoulder and shrugged, and couldn't help but chuckled, "Lang Jun is right, hehe, you don't know, when I saw A Yuan grab the scroll When I was there, I was really relieved, and I said in my heart, little ancestor, you can just grab anything, don't mess around anymore."

Cui Da laughed again, and finally heaved a long sigh of relief, saying: "Oh, it's a pity that I can't watch such an important occasion."

But Xiao Nan comforted: "It's okay, I will draw all the pictures of A Yuan catching Zhou tomorrow, and when I finish the pictures, Mr. Lang will look at the pictures in the same way."

Cui Da's heart moved, and then he asked with concern: "My lady's paintings are certainly good, but...if grandma agrees to keep Lu's cousin and aunt, you must be busy with how to arrange them safely... so much trouble, lady Is your body all right?"

Xiao Nan also stopped in his tracks, "Yeah, I almost forgot if I didn't tell you. Well, I remember Yuye Shandanqing, she was also present when I caught Zhou today, why don't you let her draw a picture of a gentleman?"

It wasn't that Xiao Nan deliberately pushed the concubine into Cui Da's arms, but that Bai Shi had been missing for a few months, and she was pregnant again. Because Cui Da cared about his daughter and unborn child, he temporarily shifted his attention from male love to female love. Family responsibilities come up.

However, Xiao Nan could tell that it was Cui Da's limit not to touch women for a few months.

Now there is another charming 'cousin' in the family, as long as this cousin wants to seduce Cui Da, with Cui Da's romantic and 'simple', she will definitely be hooked.

Anyway, Cui Da was looking for other women. Instead of letting a cousin who didn't know the details take advantage of it, it was better to help his own.

Among the four concubines, Yuye is good at reading and painting, and has the most quiet demeanor. With her drawing Cui Da's attention, Xiao Nan can rest assured.

Cui Da understood Xiao Nan's hint, he was a little ashamed and moved, but he still pretended to evade: "The lady is still pregnant, just when she needs me, how can I—"

Xiao Nan put his finger on his lips, and shook his head lightly, "Your Majesty loves me, and I love you too. This matter, your Majesty listens to me!"

"...Okay, okay!"

With hesitation, Cui Da agreed to Xiao Nan's suggestion.

With this episode, the husband and wife walked together more sweetly, and they came to the main hall together.

First greeted the old lady, and then greeted the host and guest.

Lord Lu had a good impression of Cui Da, and after exchanging a few pleasantries, he pushed his daughter to let her come and salute.

Lu Wan Yingying came to Cui Dajin, bowed her knees and saluted, and her clear voice was as sweet as pearls rolling off a jade plate: "Ah Wan met my cousin, cousin is well..."
