I am stable

Chapter 55

In terms of looks, neither the Eldest Master nor the Second Master of the Lu family had as good a appearance as the Third Master. It didn't mean that they were not good-looking, but they were slightly inferior compared to the Third Master, which is why the Third Master was so favored.

No matter how good-looking it is, it is more advantageous. It is impossible for the ancestors to love the third master so much without this factor.

And Lu Manqin's looks combined the advantages of the third master and Ji Shuping. It can be said that she is the most attractive girl in the Lu family. The meaning of selling.

There is a folk saying that "the New Year is the end of Laba", which means that it is time to prepare new year's goods after Laba.

This year is the first year for Gu Qingwan to celebrate the New Year at Lu's house, and he doesn't know anything about the family rules. Xu Jiayin told her one by one when he took her to make the New Year's goods, and the two of them prepared together, and all these things were ready. Get ready, and almost understand a general idea.

As the year approached, Lu Yan became busy, and Gu Qingwan didn't know what he was busy with. Anyway, he left early and returned late every day, and looked quite tired.

She knew that he was definitely not as simple as the owner of a small bookstore. As for what he did in private, she didn't ask her if he didn't tell her. She believed that one day he would be willing to tell her.

What she has to do now is to prepare hot water and hot meals for him after he returns home from a tiring day. The weather in Peiping is so cold that the north wind blows hard in winter. The temperature is already low and blows on people's faces. It looks like a knife, so it looks extraordinarily cold.

Every time Lu Yan went out, he had to put on a cotton robe and an ermine cape, with a circle of fur on the collar. His clothes were always mainly moon white, gray and light blue, which looked restrained and simple.

Gu Qingwan always likes to watch him go crazy, handsome, really handsome!Thinking about it, I feel secretly happy, so handsome is my family!

Every time Lu Yan looked at her happy, he smiled helplessly and satisfied, silly girl!

Mrs. Jiang has been completely liberated this year. All things are left to the two daughters-in-law to deal with. She plays cards every day, goes shopping, or invites the wives to go to theaters and movies.

Afraid that Gu Qingwan would be unfamiliar with it for the first time, he did not forget to tell Xu Jiayin, "Teach her how to do it, and discuss it with the two of you. Anyway, you also got used to it in previous years. It's all these procedures."

Xu Jiayin nodded with a smile, "Qingwan is smart, and she can help me a lot. With her help, I can save a lot of trouble. Mother, don't worry. If there is anything uncertain, we will ask you again. Trouble girl."

Mrs. Jiang smiled and waved her hands, "From now on, this family will always be handed over to you, you learn slowly, I see that Qingwan is not a competitive character, even if she is on the side to help you, it won't affect anything. "

Xu Jiayin naturally understood the meaning of Mrs. Jiang's words, and said with a smile: "I know, there is a second younger brother who thinks she doesn't like these things." This is not an exaggeration, and now the entire Lu family's expenses are basically Lu Yan earned it, after all, he was in charge of the family business.

And most of these businesses were developed by Lu Yan alone. It can be said that they do not belong to the Lu family at all, but Lu Yan's own. In other words, Lu Yan is the money bag and think tank of the Lu family.

After fleeing and evading in turmoil, how many things are left, and the Lu family can maintain this kind of prosperity. It can be said that Lu Yan's financial support is indispensable. After all, there is nothing that can be done without money.

This is also the reason Mrs. Jiang has always asked Xu Jiayin and Gu Qingwan to have a good relationship. Family harmony is one aspect, and it is more important to ensure the family's prosperity.

Hearing what she said, Mrs. Jiang was relieved, knowing that she was smart, but she was also afraid that she would be fascinated by the things in front of her eyes, and then she would not be able to see the essence of the matter clearly. What about them a hundred years from now?
Seeing what Xu Jiayin said clearly now, Mrs. Jiang felt that she could really let go, let the young people get used to each other slowly, and after they got used to it, they could discuss anything.

Taking advantage of the Chinese New Year, Mrs. Jiang asked Xu Jiayin to take the girls out for a walk, make some new clothes, buy jewelry and so on.

The unmarried members of the Lu family are Lu Manli and Lu Manqin, both of whom have reached their age, so they probably won't be able to stay for long, and Lu Manli is already engaged, and if nothing happens, they will definitely get married next year.

Although Lu Manqin hadn't settled down yet, looking at Ji Shuping's posture, it probably wouldn't be too long.

Girls can feel more relaxed when they are in their natal family for a few years. No matter how well married they are, they are still not as free as being in their natal family. So let them relax while there is still a chance.

Xu Jiayin knew what Mrs. Jiang was thinking, so she naturally responded with a smile. When she was about to set off, she didn't forget to bring Gu Qingwan with her. If she only brought Lu Manli with her, Xu Jiayin didn't think it was a problem. An unconscious Lu Manqin.

Based on the principle of sharing difficulties together, how could Xu Jiayin miss out on Gu Qingwan, a comrade-in-arms who shared weal and woe?
Gu Qingwan scolded her for being cunning, but she would not refuse this was arranged by Mrs. Jiang, she just told Lu Yan when she went back.

Lu Yan looked at her, and reached out to touch her temples, "If you really don't want to go, then don't go."

Gu Qingwan glanced at him, and said disdainfully: "Am I such an unjust person?" It's not loyal enough to throw Xu Jiayin there alone!

Lu Yan smiled, "Then go and have a look, and choose some for yourself by the way."

Gu Qingwan wrinkled her nose, and her face was very tangled. Lu Yan looked at her expressive expression and found it funny. She was always so lively and energetic, and it made people happy to watch.

In the end, she still went out with her. Hearing that she was going to buy new clothes and jewelry, Lu Manqin was quite happy, and even gave her a smile when she saw Gu Qingwan.

Gu Qingwan: ...Shouldn't you be flattered at this time?

In the end, he just nodded to her, so why care about a little girl like her?

On the contrary, Lu Manli came forward to say hello very politely, and she also had a happy face. Although the Lu family would not restrict them from going out, it was limited after all, and there were not many opportunities like today, except for socialites like Lu Manqin.

Although Lu Manli's family is not as good as the Lu family, it is not bad, and she is the only child in the family. The second wife is very satisfied with this.

Because the daughter-in-law of such a family will be the head of the family in the future, the requirements are also stricter, not to mention that the door is not out of the door, at least they must have read the Four Books for Women, know how to housekeeper and settle accounts.

So Lu Manli hasn't gone out shopping for a long time since she got engaged, this time is a rare opportunity, even if she is usually prudent and self-sufficient, she can't help but smile at this time.

Gu Qingwan looked at her amused in his heart, after all, she is still a little girl, who doesn't like lively shopping?
When they were going out, Lu Yan sent Ah Jin over to drive them. She also took care of the second young lady in disguise. .

She probably also thought that she was going shopping today, and it was the second brother who paid for it, so she slowly endured it.

Gu Qingwan looked at it coldly, it's not stupid!Isn't that pretty clear?Know who pays and who is the boss.

Xu Jiayin pretended not to notice, and pulled Gu Qing into the car at night, letting her sit in the passenger seat, while she herself sat in the back with Lu Manqin and Lu Manli.

After getting in the car, Lu Manqin pulled Lu Manli to talk nonstop, talking about what colors and styles of clothes are popular in Beiping, and what new jewelry and cosmetics are there.

Gu Qingwan, Xu Jiayin and Lu Manli: ...

In the end, when it was time to decide where to go, there was a disagreement. Lu Manli was indifferent and could go anywhere, but Lu Manqin couldn’t do it. She insisted on going to Jinxiu Pavilion and Jinxiufang. These two names sounded like a family. The former One sells jewellery, the latter sells clothes and fabrics.

Jinxiu Pavilion and Jinxiufang are relatively well-known shops in Beiping, and the items are not bad. It would be no harm to go here, but the problem is that these two shops belong to the Yuan family.

As for Yuan Qiyao's performance at the opening of the Medicinal Food Workshop, it is still circulating in the circle, so I don't believe that Lu Manqin doesn't know about her.

But she still chose to go to these two places and took Gu Qingwan with her.

Gu Qingwan didn't think there was anything wrong, no matter how Yuan Qiyao did business with her family's store, it was a different matter, if you should buy it, you would buy it, it didn't matter, but Xu Jiayin and Lu Manli's complexions were a bit ugly.

Even though Yuan Qiyao didn't say anything at the time, but after inquiring about what she should know and what she shouldn't know, I believe Gu Qingwan already knew it all, but at this time Lu Manqin didn't know how to avoid taboos, they were afraid that Gu Qingwan would Tonight will be unhappy.

After all, such a thing is actually quite uncomfortable, especially when you are stabbed in the back by your own people.

Seeing that the atmosphere was going to be tense, Gu Qingwan said with a calm attitude: "If you want to go, go and have a look. I heard that there are many new products there. Let's pick them out today."

Seeing her smile without the slightest bit of reluctance, Xu Jiayin's face finally looked better. After all, she was the one who brought Gu Qingwan together, and if it ended up being unpleasant because of this matter, she wouldn't feel much better.

Seeing Gu Qingwan's generosity at this time, I feel that she is generous, and she deserves to be someone that my second brother values.

But for Lu Manqin, she made another note in her heart. The Lu family has always been the most protective. Regardless of how the family is at home, they will definitely protect each other when they are outside. Even Lu Manli knows that they are all enemies, but Lu Manqin is This virtue!
