Step by step lotus flower

Chapter 40
Lu Mingxuan looked at the words and expressions from the side, and seeing Mrs. Lu's smile finally reached her eyes this time, knowing that although the crisis had not been resolved, at least it had been resolved to a certain extent, Fang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, now that she and Lu Mingfu are no longer together. Offended Mrs. Lu and Lu Mingya, if Mrs. Lu doesn't like them any more, even with Mrs. Lu's protection, their life will not be much easier in the future. It was because of this in the last life, Mrs. Lu He has always treated her indifferently. If not for the whole family knowing that Lu Mingzhu is covering her, they still don't know what Mrs. Lu will do to her. Naturally, if there is one less enemy, one less enemy would be better.

Seeing that she had said what she needed to say, Mrs. Lu didn't want to keep everyone any longer, she said she was tired and ordered everyone to leave, so everyone got up to salute and retreated one by one.

Back in Kongcui Pavilion, Lu Mingfu only went back to her room to change clothes and freshen up, then came to Lu Mingxuan's room, with a look of hesitation, apparently she wanted to say something to Lu Mingxuan.

Without even thinking about it, Lu Mingxuan knew what she wanted to say to her, and she had no scruples, so she simply waved away all the serving people, and said, "We are the only two sisters in the room now, what do you want to say? , can you just say it straight?"

Lu Mingfu's face suddenly collapsed, and she sighed in a low voice: "I feel so tired, I have never been so tired in the past ten years... We first offended the second lady and the third lady, and now we are being punished by the eldest lady and the third lady." The eldest girl doesn't like it, but this is the second day we live in the Duke's Mansion. Even with the old lady's best protection, we are afraid that our future life will not be much easier... If we had known this, we It's better not to enter the mansion, just staying at home is fine, at least you don't have to be like this now, you have to laugh when you don't want to laugh, and you have to say what you don't want to say, everyone's face is judged, and everyone's mood has to be scrupulous, only You can't care about your own feelings... and you can still see your father every day. You don't have to be close to your father, but it's difficult to even see him. How about we bring a letter to your father and ask him to take us back? Duke Guo No matter how good the mansion is, it is not our own home after all. I didn’t understand when I heard people say that ‘golden nests and silver nests are not as good as my own doghouses’, but now I finally understand..."

What she said made Lu Mingxuan smile wryly. She didn't want to go back, but Lu Mingfu didn't know the hidden truth, but she knew it after living a new life. Don't say that they have entered the Duke's mansion now, Mrs. Lu will never let her When they go out, even if they haven't come in yet, Mrs. Lu will definitely let them in, and tell Lu Zhongxian to pick them up. Isn't it clear that there is a problem in the way?
She had no choice but to persuade Lu Mingfu: "When we first entered the mansion, everyone didn't know us well, and there were some minor quarrels for a while. After getting along for a long time, everyone became more and more familiar with each other, and it will naturally get better. There is no need to bring a letter." Dad took us back? Isn’t that a disappointment to the old lady’s intentions? The old lady has been so kind to us, and she has taken care of us. My sister has the heart to make her old man sad? Also, why did dad send us in? It is for us to have a good future in the future. For this reason, even the father and daughter have reluctantly parted with each other, and the sister has the heart to let her father down? Not to mention that we really go back. People in the clan will not say that we want to go back, just He would say that there must be something wrong with us that everyone in the Duke's Mansion can't tolerate, that's why they sent us back, otherwise such a good thing, even a fool would not shirk it, so are we worse than fools?"

Lu Mingfu was silent for a long time when she heard the words, and then Fang sighed listlessly: "Why didn't I know that since we came in, we couldn't go out easily, I was just panicking in my heart, and I was just talking in front of you..."

Lu Mingxuan said: "I understand my sister's feelings, but we can't completely deny the benefits of the Duke's Mansion because of a little setback, at least what we are going to learn is something that we can't learn outside in our lifetime. A few years of restraint in exchange for a lifetime of benefits, I think it is worth it, sister, don't always think about these unhappy things, think more about happy things, the mood will naturally be different."

Just like what Lu Mingfu said, she didn't know that once they came in, they couldn't go out easily. She just wanted to pour out the grievance in her heart. Mood joked with Lu Mingxuan: "I used to say that you are old-fashioned and you still don't admit it, but now what do you say? Let people who don't know hear it, and think you are the older sister and I am the younger sister, so you just explain it to me in a serious manner." , by the way, you were not so good at talking before, and you were not so considerate... Not only did you become better at talking in front of me, but you were also good at talking in front of the old lady and the eldest lady. Praise that you are quite organized in your speech and actions now, and you understand things. Let me listen to you more and discuss things with you. Although I am a sister, I am not as good as you in this respect...I, I am very happy in this life To have a sister like you!"

"Are you sure you're only inferior to me in this aspect?" Lu Mingxuan was moved. Lu Mingfu's words to her were undoubtedly the best affirmation of everything she had done since her rebirth. She couldn't help but smile. My eyes were red, but I didn't know what to say for a while, so I could only express it in a joking way, "But why do I feel that you are not as good as me?"

Lu Mingfu burst into laughter, pushed her and said angrily: "You are really out of breath when you say you are fat, but you are talking about how I am not as good as you, if you say no today If you're ugly, don't blame me for bullying the little one..." As he spoke, he started to scratch Lu Mingxuan's armpit, laughing until Lu Mingxuan was out of breath, and she laughed too. No more strength, the two sisters stopped.

After resting for a while, Lu Mingfu suddenly lowered her voice and asked, "Hey, do you think the third girl is really sick or fake?"

Lu Mingxuan asked without answering, "What do you think, sister?"

Lu Mingfu said: "Needless to say, of course she is pretending, otherwise why would she not get sick sooner or later, and then get sick after being given a big shame by the county lord? Obviously she felt ashamed to come out to see people, So I can only call it sick and hide in the room and can’t come out.”

"My sister knows what I'm doing, so why do you ask me?" Lu Mingxuan and Lu Mingfu also thought the same thing. Lu Mingya looked like a person with extreme self-esteem, but she was taught by Lu Mingzhu in front of so many people. Mingzhu is the head of the county, and she can't bear it either. I just don't know how long it will take for her "illness" to get better?
Besides, after Mrs. Lu sent everyone away, her face immediately sank, and she sneered at Zhang Momo: "Sure enough, the wings are hard. Don't take my old lady seriously, and dare to use the empress to oppress me. She can't help it." Don't forget what is meant by 'married and obedient', otherwise I would never mind teaching her what is proper manners!"
