After dinner, the old lady hesitated, called Lu Bing who was about to go back to the room with his wife, and said, "Wenfu, come with your mother."

Lu Bing looked at the old lady suspiciously, and then said to his wife: "You go back to the room first?" Lian Qiu bowed obediently to the old lady, and went back to the room.

Lu Bing came to the garden with his mother.

The old lady hesitated, but said: "Wenfu, what I told you before?" Lu Bing asked suspiciously: "What is it?" The old lady frowned: "What is it, of course it is a concubine. thing!"

Lu Bing said reluctantly: "Why mention it again? Didn't I already said it, no!"

The old lady said anxiously: "But you and Lian Qiu have been married for three years, and you haven't conceived yet. It's a big deal to carry on the family!"

Lu Bing was still reluctant: "Wait a little longer, maybe it will happen soon." The old lady grabbed Lu Bing's arm and said, "There are three ways to be unfilial and have no descendants! Your father is not in good health, maybe someday. You don't want to Can't your father close his eyes?"

"Mom!" Lu Bing said helplessly: "My relationship with Lianqiu is just right, I don't want to find another woman to destroy our relationship!"

The old lady also said helplessly: "Mother also likes Lianqiu very much, but. Your father's time is running out, and I don't want him to regret it! Look at your second brother, third brother, you have children in your hometown! Are you How can the eldest son in the family not have children!"

Lu Bing helped his mother to sit down beside the stone bench, and said, "Mother, don't worry, it's not that Lianqiu can't conceive. Didn't the doctor say that Lianqiu's health is fine?"

The old lady sighed: "But there is no doctor who can take care of it!"

Lu Bing comforted: "Don't worry, mother..."

The old lady interrupted Lu Bing and said: "How can you not be in a hurry? Well, in fact, with your current status, let alone taking a concubine, you can even marry a second wife!"

Lu Bing was silent for a while, as if he had made up his mind, he raised his head and said, "Mother, don't talk about it, I will go to see the emperor tomorrow, and ask the emperor to send an expert from the imperial hospital to show Lianqiu, and I will definitely be able to conceive .”

The old lady hesitated for a while and said: "Isn't it good to alarm the Holy Majesty about this kind of thing?"

Lu Bing smiled bitterly: "It's come to this point, there's nothing wrong with it."

The old lady thought for a while, then asked again: "What if it still doesn't work?"

Lu Bing was stunned for a moment, and then said sadly: "It will definitely work."

The old lady saw that her son was unhappy, and she didn't want to push him too much, so she didn't say any more.

Lu Bing first helped his mother back to the room, and then returned to his own room. Lian Qiu sat on the embroidered stool, resting his chin with one hand, staring at the candlelight in a daze.Seeing Lu Bing coming back, he quickly stood up, stepped forward and asked, "Officer, you are back."

Lu Bing hummed and asked, "Why haven't you gone to bed yet?"

"Wait for you!" Lian Qiu hesitated, and asked, "Mother, what do you want?"

Lu Bing didn't respond, but was busy taking off his boots, and Lian Qiu hurried up to help.

Lian Qiu lowered her head and said softly: "Is it... about asking the child?"

Lu Bing looked at Lianqiu who was squatting beside him to help him take off his boots, his heart was full of pity, but he couldn't express it.He picked up Lianqiu and sat on his lap. Lianqiu put his arms around Lu Bing's neck and said, "Officer, why don't you take a concubine..."

Lu Bing patted his wife on the back lightly and said, "It's up to you whether you accept concubines or not!"

"But" Lian Qiu tightly wrapped her arms around Lu Bing's neck and said, "You are the eldest son, you can't have no offspring..."

Lu Bing smiled lightly and said, "Isn't there you?"

Lian Qiu said: "I...it's been three years..."

Lu Bing comforted his wife in a loud voice: "Don't worry, I will go to the emperor tomorrow and ask the emperor to send an imperial doctor from the imperial hospital to treat you."

Lian Qiu was taken aback, and hurriedly let go of Lu Bing and asked: "Then... isn't that well known? It will damage the reputation of the officials!" Lu Bing got up and picked up his wife, then turned around and laid her on the embroidered bed, making fun of her Said: "Then hurry up and give birth to your father!"

……

The next day, Lu Bing got up, came to the martial arts arena behind the garden, punched once, and then used eighteen kinds of weapons. Just when he finally picked up the knife and was about to perform another round of sword skills, Lu An ran away. come to the arena and call him
Lu An is the son of the Lu family. He has been working in the Lu family since his grandfather's generation. His father has always served Lu Song, but now that he is old, he stays in Pinghu's hometown and helps Lu Bing's younger brothers manage the house. The ancestral house owned by the land, only Lu An came to Beijing with him, and now he is the steward of the Lu family.

Lu An bowed and reported to Lu Bing: "Master, Dong Hai Baihu from the Qianhu Office has come, and he brought a big man with him."

Lu Bing said happily: "My hero has arrived!"

As he spoke, he was sweating profusely and rushed to the front hall wearing his underwear, before he even had time to put down the knife.

Lu An was a little puzzled, and thought to himself: "This Dong Qianhu looks fierce except for his stomach, where else is he fierce?"

Lu Bing left Lu An, who was thinking wildly, and rushed to the front hall, only to see Dong Hai was arguing with that strong man named Shi Shi.

Lu Bing laughed and rushed towards them, Dong Hai was fine, seeing Lu Bing hurriedly bowed his hands in salute.But Shitou rushed in when he saw Lu Bing holding a knife, picked up the mahogany chair beside him, and prepared to fight.

Seeing Shitou's posture, Lu Bing was stunned for a moment, then remembered that he was holding a knife, couldn't help laughing, and imitated Shitou's habit of scratching his head.

I don't know why, when Lu Bing saw the stone, he seemed to let go of his depression, and even lost his stability.

Lu Bing tapped the mahogany chair in Shi Shi's hand with a knife and said, "Put it down! I'm not going to fight with you! Hehe."

While knocking on the chair, Lu Bing thought, how could this chair weigh a hundred and ten catties, and it was like a firewood stick in his hand, how could he be born with such strength.

Lu Bing walked to the middle hall and sat down, then put down the knife, and signaled Dong Hai and Shitou to sit down.At this time, Lu An also followed, and arranged for the maid to serve tea.Lu Bing took a sip of the tea, calmed himself down, and asked, "You two, what were you arguing about just now?"
