Chapter 53
The two of them hurriedly thanked each other, and returned to their previous positions to stand.

Princess Fuhui said again: "By the way, I also heard that my mother took two girls from Mr. Xian's family into the mansion to support them. Where are they now? Come up and show me!"

According to Mrs. Lu's original intention, she didn't want Lu Mingxuan and Lu Mingfu to meet Princess Fuhui alone. She was afraid that Princess Fuhui would see something, otherwise she would have taken the initiative to mention it, but now Princess Fuhui She had already opened her mouth on her own initiative, and even if she didn't think about it, it would be useless, so she could only smile at Lu Mingxuan and Lu Mingfu and said, "What are the two girls still doing in a daze, haven't you heard what the Eldest Princess said?"

When Lu Mingfu heard the words, she hurriedly answered "Yes", and then went forward to salute Princess Fuhui. After walking two steps, she realized that Lu Mingxuan hadn't followed her, so she had to turn her head to see what was wrong with her.

Not wanting to look at it, she saw Lu Mingxuan's face was pale, her eyes were stunned, and her chest was heaving violently. She didn't know if she was sick or what, so she couldn't help being taken aback, but she also knew that she couldn't lose her composure in front of everyone. Reluctantly restraining himself, he returned to Lu Mingxuan's side, pulled her hand and squeezed it cruelly, and said urgently almost in a whisper, "What's wrong with you, are you sick? We'll go back after seeing the Eldest Princess at least!"

Lu Mingxuan was in pain, and only then came back to her senses as if waking up from a dream, hurriedly said in a low voice: "I'm fine, but I was a little nervous when I saw the eldest princess. It's time for the eldest princess to avenge her crime." Instead, she passed Lu Mingfu and walked forward first.

When Lu Mingfu saw this, she only acted like that because she was really nervous when she saw the eldest princess, so she no longer doubted it, hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down with Lu Mingxuan, and gave another big gift to the eldest princess Fuhui: "I have seen the eldest princess, the eldest princess is a thousand years old!"

Over the years, Princess Fuhui had seen many people who were nervous when they first saw her, so she didn't feel embarrassed by Lu Mingxuan's reaction, she said 'Excuse me' to the two of them, and said nothing else.

On the contrary, Lu Zhongyu couldn't help but look at Lu Mingxuan a few more times, but everyone including Lu Mingxuan didn't notice it.

The nanny with her own talents stepped forward and gave a gift to the two sisters each.

Lu Mingzhu murmured in a low voice: "Before I said that Sister Xuan is interesting, I don't know how much better than other side sisters who are only submissive or timid. Who knows that seeing my mother now is no different from other people. , it's really boring!"

Hearing this, Lu Mingxuan didn't speak, but just lowered her head with a blushing expression and an extremely ashamed look, but she was secretly scolding herself for being worthless. She had already told herself countless times that in this life, no matter if it was Lu Mingzhu or Lu Zhongyu or Lu Mingxuan. Anyone in the princess mansion is just a stranger to her, and their happiness, anger, and even life and death are no longer related to her; she also thought she had done well enough before. When I came here every now and then to say hello, she never lost her composure, but why did she still become so angry and resentful when she met Lu Zhongyu just now?
After Princess Fuhui first met Ling Mengqi and Zhao Yanjie, and then saw Lu Mingfu and Lu Mingxuan being so mixed up, the time was almost up, so everyone sat down in order according to the seniority of men and women, talking and laughing at Yanyan, and began to eat the New Year's reunion The meal is coming.

After dinner, it was still early, Mrs. Lu proposed to hit the horse hanging because of her smile: "It's rare that everyone is complete today, why don't we all play a game, the eldest princess, mother, me and my second brother and sister, there are exactly four people, so it's easy My second sibling and I earn some pocket money?"

Princess Fuhui said: "I feel a little uncomfortable in this palace, so I won't spend more time with my mother and two sister-in-laws, and go back to rest first." Then she asked Lu Zhongyu, "Should the son-in-law go back now or later?"

According to Lu Zhongyu's original intention, he naturally wanted to stay and have more fun with his brothers and nephews, but Princess Fuhui had already said that she was 'uncomfortable', so he couldn't stay any longer, so he said disconcertedly: "I Come back with you."

Lu Mingzhu and Lu Wenzhu were not afraid that Princess Fuhui would be unhappy. The two siblings clamored to stay, and they also said that the key to the corner gate leading to the princess mansion from the Duke's mansion should be unlocked earlier, and they played late. I won't go back after that, just stay with Mrs. Lu and sleep well.

Princess Fuhui always had no choice but to resign her old father-in-law and Mrs. Lu, and left with Lu Zhongyu.

The rest of Lu Wenzhu lost his restraint, and the old man and Mrs. Lu have always spoiled him, so he jumped up and down more and more, having fun, and then encouraged a group of brothers to play dice. The old man glared at him, and he stepped forward and hugged the old man's neck with a playful smile: "When did my grandfather see us playing this game on weekdays? It's not a holiday today. Are you all happy? You old man just turn a blind eye and close your eyes." One eye is enough, or, no matter who wins, we will share half of the silver with you later, and it will be regarded as the banker's money?"

The old man couldn't laugh or cry, he didn't say anything more, he acquiesced to Lu Wenzhu's proposal of throwing dice.

So several young masters in the Duke's Mansion started to play dice. Of course, Lu Wenting just played with his younger brothers, especially Lu Wenzhu. He is already married and soon to be a father, so naturally he can no longer be like the younger ones. Nonsense, so only one or two out of ten wins.

Lu Wenting, as the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, did not dare to make Lu Wenzhu stronger, and the others naturally dared not. They all let Lu Wenzhu intentionally or unintentionally. There is a high pile of silver in front of him.

As the so-called "one slap can't make a sound", it is clear that everyone is letting himself in, Lu Wenzhu can't help but feel bored, but he hasn't had the most fun yet, so he looked left and right, and then fell to the side and looked at them with a smile Brothers Ling Mengqi and Zhao Yanjie, "Why don't you two come down to play? Come on, come down and play, it's only interesting if there are more people playing!"

Seeing that the two of them were still just laughing but didn't come forward after speaking, he simply stepped forward and pulled them up: "Hurry up, let you taste my strength!"

When Zhao Yanjie saw this, he knew that he couldn't refuse, and saw that although Lu Wenzhu and the others were having a good time, the elders were still there, so he didn't expect to make him too nonsense, so he stood in front of the table and said with a smile: "Five Cousin is so powerful, I have to give way to Brother Yu later."

However, Ling Mengqi blushed, and refused to join the battle without saying anything, just mumbled: "I don't know how to play this, so I won't come..."

However, Lu Wenzhu refused, and kept saying, "It's just a dice game. What else can you play or not? Could it be that you look down on me and don't want to play with me, so you just perfunctory me like this?"

Seeing that he has risen to the height of "regarding and despising" and the other party is valuable, Ling Mengqi has no choice but to tell the whole story about his predicament. In fact, it's not that he doesn't want to play with Lu Wenzhu and others, nor can he know how to play Son, it's because he is so shy in his pocket that he can't afford money to play with. Although the old man and Lu Zhongmian have treated him well, they have prepared everything for food and clothing, but he can't even spend money. Do you want to ask the government of the country?He was no better than Zhao Yanjie, even though he had defected here, his family still had a few acres of land, so it was unlikely that he would not be able to take out a few taels of money.
