Chapter 149 Waiting for You

"Come on, take this traitor down for me. I want to see how capable he is. He is going to fight against the family!"

Xiao Hong's eyes dimmed, feeling that he was being provoked, he immediately asked someone to bring Xiao Zhongheng to his side.

"Father treats his son like this, isn't he afraid that Mr. Yushi will come to read a book?"

"How dare you threaten me, you rebellious son?"

Because of Xiao Zhongheng's words, Xiao Hong immediately remembered that after he had beaten Xiao Ruan, it was reported to the civil servants that he was scolded by the emperor.

At the beginning Xiao Ruan colluded with the Lu family through this matter, so he fled to the Lu family and took all the dowry away. Could it be that this rebellious son is planning to do the same now?

His eyes narrowed, Xiao Hong seemed to be really worried about something, hesitation flashed across his face, and he actually let Xiao Zhongheng go.

"Let me ask you, why did you go to find the prince!"

After finally calming down, Xiao Hong's eyes flashed with anger, and finally he couldn't help but yell at Xiao Zhongheng.

Now, he is recruiting courtiers to be Zhao Yan's subordinates everywhere, but unexpectedly there is a person who sings against him in his own home.

This can't help but make everyone turn their attention to themselves.

Xiao Zhongheng is his own son, and even his own son is not of one mind with him, how can she persuade others to assist Zhao Yan with one heart?
Thinking of Zhao Yan's anger and suspicion when he looked at him in the court hall, Xiao Hongjue felt that even if he showed him his heart, Zhao Yan might not believe in him anymore.

Returning with anger, Xiao Hong immediately sent someone to find Xiao Zhongheng, but this rebellious son not only was not at home but also went to the Lu residence.

With a gloomy face, he finally waited until Xiao Zhongheng came back, and before he could say a word, this rebellious son actually embarrassed him in front of everyone!

"Father will be beaten and punished. I won't say a word of complaint, but father should also think about whether everything you have done for Zhao Yan is worth it."

"You...you really feel that you have given me a face!"

Xiao Hong was almost being beaten by Xiao Zhongheng, his eyes stared at Xiao Zhongheng angrily, wishing that the other party would shut up quickly.

In the courtyard of Xiao's house, Zhao Yan's manpower early in the morning, if the other party knew this, I'm afraid they would be even more disdainful of his ability to handle affairs.

"Father educated his son since he was a child, and he must let our Xiao family shine on the lintel and gain the trust of the emperor. Isn't it the matter of honoring the ancestors? Could it be that the son has done something wrong?"

"You! Good good! I will wait for your glorious ancestors!"

Xiao Hong was stopped by Xiao Zhongheng's question, but he was speechless for a long time, seeing that the other party still showed no trace of shame, Xiao Hong finally let out a heavy snort, shook his sleeves and left.

"The young master really choked with his father?"

Xiao Ruan was very surprised when she heard from Linglong that Xiao Zhongheng had quarreled with Xiao Hong.

It is almost impossible to imagine how a gentle person like Xiao Zhongheng who knelt down would quarrel with Xiao Hong.

"Miss, can this servant still lie to you? The master was so angry that he was half dead last night, but the young master acted as if he didn't notice it. It really made people feel too relieved."

Linglong repeated what happened last night in detail, Xiao Ruan believed that Xiao Zhongheng had really started to stop being the person who was always silent, she was very happy, and immediately asked someone to give Linglong a reward.

"Master, does she have contact with Pei?"

Xiao Ruan opened his mouth several times in front of Xiao Zhongheng and wanted to ask about the relationship between Xiao Zhongheng and Pei Yuemei, but every time he saw each other, he felt unable to ask.

Seeing Linglong now, she couldn't help but want to find out something from him.

"Miss, if you ask this servant, you really know it!"

As she said that, Linglong seemed to have a very busy secret, and got everyone to gather their heads together, and then mysteriously revealed the whole story.

It turned out that all the clothes that Xiao Ruan handed over to Xiao Zhongheng had been returned.Pei Shi was still unwilling to let go, but when he saw those clothes and shoes returned, he completely understood Xiao Zhongheng's thoughts, and he never came to look for him again.
"That being the case, I'm relieved."

Still not clear what exactly Xiao Zhongheng said to Mrs. Pei, but hearing Mrs. Pei had given up, Xiao Ruan felt a long sigh of relief, finally able to sleep with some peace of mind.

Time flies, and it is the end of the year in a flash.

The smell of Chinese New Year is getting stronger and stronger, and the Lu Mansion is also celebrating everywhere.

On this day, just as Xiao Ruan walked to the front of the old lady's courtyard, she saw someone walking over carrying several boxes.

"All the clothes that our house asked us to make for the young lady have already been made, are you in charge?"

There were already many people around the old lady's room. As soon as Xiao Ruan entered the room, Lu Heng took her hand and looked at old lady Lu with joy.

"Grandmother, I see that you are the most eccentric, but there are not many aqua blue materials, but you have made clothes for Ruan Ruan, and we have nothing to wear even if we want to wear them."

Lu Heng pouted with dissatisfaction on his face, Xiao Ruan immediately comforted him when he saw it: "You really like it, just take it, I'm really not very interested in these things."

Hearing this, Lu Heng's face turned hot, and he rolled his eyes: "Cut, I'm an older sister, how can I compete with my younger sister, I'm just talking like this."

As Lu Heng said, he couldn't help but look at those blue clothes again.

Now, even Mrs. Lu could see that Lu Heng was indeed interested in those blue clothes, so she smiled and shook her head unconsciously.

"The two of you have similar figures. Since Ruan girl really doesn't like it, you just accept it. Don't come here to be sour."

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help laughing at Lu Heng for speaking sourly, and told her to put away those blue clothes quickly.

Lu Heng knew early on that as long as he acted coquettishly, these clothes would naturally be his own. Seeing that his goal had been achieved, he quickly asked the maid to collect the clothes, and went to Mrs. Lu to kowtow.

"Grandmother, Heng'er knows that you are the fairest and most selfless elder in the world, Heng'er takes back what he just said!"

Lu Heng's attitude at this time was completely different from the person who stomped his feet and raised his mouth and stared at his eyes just now. The rapid change of face caused a burst of laughter.

Mrs. Lu was used to seeing Lu Heng's appearance like a monkey, so she couldn't help holding the handkerchief to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Your mouth is sweet now, girl, just now I, an old man, was really going to be scared out of illness by you!"

"Bah, bah, bah! Grandma is a person who can live to a hundred years old, so she won't get sick from being scared by me?" Lu Heng walked up to you in a few steps, hugged her arm, and acted like a baby.

"As the saying goes, smile, ten years younger, with your cousin by your side, I think it's hard to grow old even if you want to!"

Xiao Ruan's words were also quite pleasing. In one sentence, she praised Lu Heng and Mrs. Lu, causing bursts of laughter from the room.

As the year approached, everyone's faces were filled with joy, Mrs. Lu's yard was bustling with activity, when Xiao Zhongheng walked in, he happened to see his younger sister sitting around Mrs. Lu with a group of people, looking extremely happy, A smile immediately formed on the corner of his mouth.

"Look who is here? My grandson is here too, give me a seat!"

While Mrs. Lu was talking, she suddenly saw a tall and slender man walking in, with even more joy in her eyes, she hurriedly asked someone to show him a seat.

"Grandson wishes grandma a blessing like Donghai Shoubi Nanshan!"

When Xiao Zhongheng came, he also brought some angels such as candied fruit, and asked someone to distribute them as soon as he entered the room.

"This is something that the people below specially pay tribute to the crown prince. The crown prince shared some with me, and I will let my grandmother try it out today."

"Okay, okay, it's rare that Heng'er is so caring, so I'll accept it and let you all have a taste."

Mrs. Lu laughed from ear to ear, she really sent all these candied fruits and other things.

"Today's child is taking advantage of grandma. If it weren't for that, we wouldn't be able to eat this kind of offering!"

Lu Heng reached out and wiped a candied fruit into his mouth, and felt his lips and teeth salivate. Even though his mouth was sour and sweet, he wanted to eat it even after eating it. When everyone was not paying attention, he quickly settled the tribute on the table Most of it.

"You Poor Monkey, I said I won't talk now, but I'm just occupying my mouth."

Mrs. Lu carefully asked about Xiao Zhongheng's recent life, she nodded secretly, and when she felt thirsty, she stretched out her hand to grab something empty.

Only then did he notice that the food box beside him had been held in Lu Heng's hands, and he was listening to the conversation with relish, without stopping.

"Then what...Grandma, I think this food is really delicious, come here, Heng'er will feed you one myself these few days!"

Lu Heng was caught in the act, his face flushed, holding up the few candied fruit left in his hand, he was busy trying to curry favor with the old lady.

"That's all, the right is for you."

Seeing that Lu Heng actually took out a candied fruit to feed herself, Mrs. Lu smiled wryly, and in the end, amidst laughter, she opened her mouth to hold a piece...

"Brother looks good, presumably he must be very trusting in front of the emperor, right?"

Recently, Xiao Zhongheng did not come to the Lu residence, Xiao Ruan calculated carefully, and the two of them actually did not see each other for another two full months.

Looking at Xiao Zhongheng carefully, Xiao Ruan felt more and more that his brother was completely different from the past, his body exuded more and more aura of a superior person, and the mild and almost cowardly feeling in the past had completely disappeared.

It really made Xiao Ruan feel happy!

"Thanks to the respect of the emperor, Brother Wei has indeed done a few things to satisfy the emperor recently."

Xiao Zhongheng had a smile on his face, and his voice was full of confidence, but he didn't tell Xiao Ruan what great things he had done, instead his expression became dignified.

"I came to you today, in fact, because of Gu's affairs. The previous investigation has already had results."

Originally, Xiao Ruan wanted to listen carefully to what Xiao Zhongheng had done, and be happy together, but when he suddenly heard his tone change, and when he mentioned Gu's, his face suddenly revealed a look of surprise.

"Could it be that……"

"Yes, it is indeed as we thought, the relationship between the two of them is indeed abnormal."
