Step by step lotus flower

Chapter 31
Just as she was thinking secretly, she felt someone gently pull the corner of her clothes. Lu Mingfu came back to her senses, and saw Lu Mingxuan sitting upright, as if she was not affected by the rich dishes on the table at all. Her own family often ate like this, and only then did she realize that she had lost her composure, and the people in the room were not sure how to make fun of her at this moment, and when they were annoyed, they hurriedly followed Lu Mingxuan's example and sat up straight.

Then Mrs. Lu said: "Today is a good day for girl Fu and girl Xuan to move in. From now on, the two of them will live in our house. I treat them like your sisters, and you sisters have to treat them like relatives." Treat them like sisters, and you should give more attention to everything and take care of them."

Lu Mingfeng hurriedly got up and smiled and said: "Don't say that the two sisters have such personalities and talents that people like them when they see them, but they can't write two characters of 'Lu' in one stroke. The younger sister is an old ancestor, naturally they are biological sisters, please rest assured, grandma, we will definitely take good care of the two younger sisters."

Seeing that the eldest sister Lu Mingfeng stood up and made a statement, the others naturally couldn't sit still, so they all stood up one after another and said, "Don't worry, grandma, we will definitely take good care of the two younger sisters (sisters)."

Except for Lu Mingzhu who is still sitting still, but including Mrs. Lu, she didn't say anything. After all, Lu Mingzhu has royal blood on her body and has a noble status. She is polite to Lu Mingxuan and Lu Mingfu. .

Mrs. Lu nodded in satisfaction, and then raised her chopsticks first, and everyone saw this, and Fang followed suit.

Perhaps it was because of self-consciousness that she made a fool of herself, but Lu Mingxuan's performance was much more calm than that of her older sister. This time, Lu Mingfu learned everything from Lu Mingxuan. Seeing that Lu Mingxuan only ate the few dishes in front of her, she So he only picked up the food in front of him and ate it, and he didn't dare to let go of it, for fear of being laughed at, gradually he felt a little tasteless.

Lu Mingfu was secretly praying that the banquet would be over soon, and there was an extra abalone in sauce in the small silver enamel bowl in front of her. She was startled for a moment, and hurriedly looked over the pair of chopsticks holding the abalone, and saw it Lu Mingya smiled like a flower, "Sister Su Rifu must have rarely eaten these things when she was at home, so I should eat more of them today."

As soon as Lu Mingya said this, Lu Mingfu's face immediately changed. Lu Mingya made it clear that she was humiliating her, but she smiled so brightly and her voice was so gentle, as if she was really taking care of her for her own good—— It's ridiculous that she said to her younger sister after she returned from the Duke's Mansion last time, "It's okay for girls to treat others, don't despise me just because I'm a side branch", "This is the real demeanor of a famous family", and now it seems that, How naive and ridiculous I am!
Lu Mingxuan also pursed her lips tightly because of Lu Mingya's words, but she couldn't say anything. Lu Mingya's words were true. When Lu Mingfu was at home, it was rare for Lu Mingfu to eat such precious dishes as abalone in sauce. Could it be said that their sisters couldn't even tell the truth? Can't even listen, don't even have the capacity to accommodate people?

She could only pretend that she didn't understand the humiliation in Lu Mingya's words, and raised her small bowl with a smile, and said to Lu Mingya: "It's really rare for me to eat these things when my sister and I are at home. Hold one with me."

Lu Mingya originally thought that after listening to her words, Lu Mingfu would show displeasure and grievance to some extent, and even couldn't help crying, then she had other things waiting for her, but who would have known that Lu Mingxuan would make such a fuss? She took the words away, so that her fist felt like hitting cotton, and no matter how powerful the force was, it was invisible. She suddenly felt dull, and she didn't bother to find fault with the two anymore. After Lu Mingxuan picked up an abalone, she lowered her head and ate her own.

When Lu Mingxuan saw this, Fang secretly heaved a sigh of relief. After all, he and his sister were the offshoot girls living in the Duke's mansion. No matter how much Mrs. Lu valued her, they couldn't compare to Lu Mingya, the official girl of the Duke's mansion. A conflict with the latter is definitely harmful to their sisters but not beneficial.

This little episode was like a drop in the ocean, and it didn't have much impact on everyone present, at least on the surface. Everyone continued to eat gracefully, and Mrs. Lu even persuaded Mrs. Lu to drink a few drinks with a smile. After a glass of wine, he toasted the wine to Mrs. Lu, and then Mrs. Lu also toasted Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Lu, so the atmosphere in the room was very lively.

Lu Mingfeng got up and walked over, asked the girl to add a chair, sat between Lu Mingfu and Lu Mingxuan, and asked the two with a smile: "What books do my sisters usually read at home? Have you dabbled in poetry? I thought of a poetry club a long time ago, but I just thought it would be boring to play with less people, so I ran aground, and now the two sisters are here, and the seven of us sisters are enough for me to invite a full club. I don’t know if the two sisters can interested……"

Before I finished speaking, a voice suddenly interjected: "The two younger sisters are newcomers, how can this happen, the elder sister really thinks that they are the same people as our sisters because they are wearing the same golden locks around their necks. Others don't know it at first glance, but we can't know it ourselves. After all, the education received by children is the same. According to me, the big sister should forget it. Why make things difficult for others, or think of other tricks to play Good." It's none other than Lu Mingya.

This is even more insulting than saying that Lu Mingfu seldom ate abalone in sauce when he was at home, and the smile on Lu Mingya's face this time is also much more fake. The hostility between the two sisters Lu Mingfu.

Lu Mingxuan couldn't help frowning. In her previous life, she didn't have much contact with Lu Mingya. She only knew that because the second wife of Lu Mingya had no children, she couldn't help but feel a little lacking in confidence towards the second master Lu and the second wife. In order to be a daughter, she can only be strong. Under the changing circumstances, her temperament is quite strong, but she didn't expect to be so strong. Today is the first day that their sisters live in the Duke's Mansion, and they didn't mess with her. When it came to her, it was just that Mrs. Lu gave them each a golden lock, and Lu Mingya couldn't tolerate them anymore. With time, wouldn't it be more serious?
Lu Mingxuan decided to teach Lu Mingya a lesson, lest she really think that their sisters are easy to bully, and also lest the servants of the Duke's Mansion see the red and step on the white, adding unnecessary trouble.

But she didn't expect that before she could open her mouth, a voice said coldly: "Third sister, don't you know what it means to 'speak without speaking while eating'? I heard that the nanny who teaches etiquette in the mansion specially talked about this. In the first lesson, the third sister’s memory is too bad! Even if the nuns didn’t remember the third sister, wouldn’t the second aunt teach you these things? If the second aunt is too busy to teach the third Sisters, the Princess Mansion has a few exquisite nuns who come out of the palace, and they are the most demanding. Why don't I go back to my mother and give two to the third sister. ashamed?"
