History of Empress Dowager Development

Chapter 180

"Oh, then I don't dare." Xu Xiang smiled, "You don't know how protective my second brother is. When I was young, I quarreled with my eldest sister, and the old lady told her that I was wrong. When my second brother found out, he went to the old lady's place. Asking for an explanation made the old man bow his head. Although the second elder brother was beaten up by the father because of this, the old lady never dared to bully me again!"

Xu Lang was really naughty when he was a child, and Lin Lang couldn't help smiling.She knew what Xu Xiang meant, and it was nothing more than comforting her, so that she would not have to worry about the old lady's embarrassment.But after all, she married into the Xu family, and the old lady is an elder, as long as it is not too much, she still has to bear the grievances she deserves, otherwise, if something really happens, wouldn't it be difficult for Chu Hanyi and Xu Lang to deal with?

Compared with the Zhu family, the current situation is ten thousand times better.

The two walked while talking, and when they arrived at Wuying residence, Xu Xiang went in first.Lu Linlang was very familiar with the neighborhood, so she was accompanied by Mother Yang, Jin Xiu and Mu Xiang back to the Shuangquan Pavilion.

It was already noon, and the small kitchen was busy preparing meals. When Lin Lang entered, Xu Lang was practicing calligraphy by the window, while the maid Huang Ying was grinding beside her, and there was no one else in the room.

Xu Lang is used to life in the army. He doesn't need anyone to take care of him in his daily life, and he thinks that the little maids are troublesome because of their poor hands and feet. After these few years, only two big maids, Huang Ying and Du Juan, are left by him, as well as Pomegranate and Xiaohe. , Begonia, and Cherry are responsible for the sweeping of the yard.These few were picked out by Chu Hanyi and forced Xu Lang to stay.

Before Lin Lang married in, Xu Lang spent most of his time resting in the study, where there were servants serving him, and the Shuangquan Hall was empty most of the time.Now that the master is living in, Lin Lang has brought a lot of maids and wives, and the Shuangquan Hall is more lively, but Xu Lang is not used to crowds, so when he practiced calligraphy, he drove everyone out, leaving only one person Grinding ink to serve.

Huang Ying is a maid from the Xu family, her parents are working under Chu Hanyi, she has experienced a lot with her, and she is considered the most decent and stable among the maids.At this moment, she was standing upright, with a lock of hair hanging down, covering her face, and her appearance was not bad.

Lin Lang couldn't help but glanced twice, and clicked her tongue in her heart. Chu Hanyi's vision is really good. Although the six maidservants he picked were different in age, they all had their own outstanding features—Huang Ying was slender and beautiful, and Du Juan had a beautiful smile. A bit of heroic spirit, the other four are charming, sweet, and meek, and they all have fair faces.

Nearly forty years old but she hasn't had a grandson yet, maybe she's also worried?
Lin Lang's footsteps paused, and Jin Xiu almost connected with her, and immediately said, "Young lady, slow down." Xu Lang heard the movement and raised his head to look over, but Huang Ying's hand grinding the ink paused, and the ink ingot tilted, Ink was rubbed on his fingers.But she saw the opportunity quickly, quietly hid her hands in her sleeves, rushed over and said: "Young madam is back?" She also called pomegranate to pour tea.

Lin Lang took the tea and sat down at the table, raised her eyebrows and looked at Xu Lang, smiling without saying a word.

Although Xu Lang was careful, he focused on matters of serious concern. Although he felt that Lin Lang's smile was strange, he didn't figure out why, so he put down his penis, walked over and said, "Did mother praise you? "

"No." Lin Lang shook her head and stood up.

"Then you are so happy?" Xu Lang naturally hugged her into his arms and led her to the desk.

Lin Lang leaned in his arms, tilted her head and asked, "Do you know what the old lady likes?"

"Her?" Xu Lang thought about it seriously, "Jewelry, calligraphy and painting, and... compliments."

Lin Lang nodded, and told Jinxiu, "Go find that copy of "The God of Fortune." Although Jinxiu didn't understand what it meant, she obediently went there. Xu Lang asked in surprise, "What are you doing with it?" Wealthy Immortals" was painted by a famous artist in the former dynasty. It depicts the rocks, peonies and narcissus in the garden with freehand brushwork. The colors are bright and vivid, and the brushwork is exquisite and elegant. It is a masterpiece.He Wenzhan regarded it as a treasure before, but Lin Lang begged for it several times but failed to get it. This time, it seems that he added it as a dowry.

Lin Lang took a pen and wrote the word "immortal" casually, and said: "For the old lady." She then asked seriously: "There are rocks in the old lady's courtyard, and many flowers such as peonies, narcissus, and magnolia, don't you think it is the same as the old lady?" Does that painting look alike?" Xu Lang was reminded by this, thought about it carefully, and it really does look alike.
