The Imperial Examination Blessed Wife in the Palm

Chapter 42
When Xie Lingzhao's servant saw Lu Weiwei and Li Chang coming out, he hurriedly bowed.

He said with a smile: "Li Xianggong and Shen Xianggong, I came to apologize to the two Xianggongs by the order of my uncle. I originally planned to give them to the two Xianggongs when school is over today. I’m on vacation, so I asked around and found it, and said, don’t blame me for being presumptuous.”

Lu Weiwei didn't pay attention to the other party in the chaos yesterday.

Seeing that he was dressed in silk and satin at the moment, and his words and deeds were measured, he couldn't help thinking to himself, it seems that Xie Lingzhao's family is really a big family that can be counted in the capital, so they can be so glamorous and dignified as a servant, right?
Li Chang said: "I'm not even a child. Our brothers don't dare to use the word 'Xianggong'. Uncle, don't call him that. We have accepted your uncle's apology. As for the compensation, there is no need for us. Brothers are fine, as long as your uncle can compensate the losses of those innocent passers-by yesterday, and also compensate my cousin's medical expenses, that's enough."

The male servant hurriedly said with a smile: "We paid for the losses of the passers-by yesterday, and there are only three princes left... the young master, but it is one thing to pay for the loss, and another thing to pay for the gift. Please also ask the two young masters to pay for it." You must accept it, or my uncle will definitely scold me."

After a pause, "I don't know where the other young man's house is? I also ask the two young men to show me the way."

While he was speaking, the two servants behind him who were full of gift boxes stepped forward, and in the blink of an eye, they had placed seven or eight gift boxes in front of Lu Weiwei and Li Chang.

Li Chang is still waiting to decline, "But..."

Lu Weiwei had already said: "Since the uncle is so sincere, we brothers should be respectful and obedient. Cousin, please show this uncle the way to Cousin Che's house, and I will send someone out to carry things."

Xie Lingzhao's face yesterday was too hateful, but at this moment, it might not be the person he ordered to apologize, but the uncle in front of him made his own decision, right?

Then of course she can't be polite with his money!
What's more, she and her cousin don't need these things, but cousin Che needs them very much. Cousin Che deserves them. If they don't want them, how can cousin Che want them?

Seeing that Lu Weiwei didn't seem to be joking, Li Chang had no choice but to follow her words: "Okay, we'd better obey our orders than be respectful. But my cousin had a fever all night because of yesterday's injury. Lie on the bed, and I'll take you there."

After finishing speaking, she whispered to Lu Weiwei: "It's good to help Cousin Che's family greet people, we can't let Third Aunt Gen and Sister Xiu show up?"

Lu Weiwei nodded, "Cousin is very thoughtful, let's go then."

Li Chang greeted the servants of Xie Lingzhao's house and went all the way to Li Che's house.

It happened that Uncle Wang came out to look for his two cousins, "Master Cousin, what about Eldest Young Master, my aunt said he is strong, so let him help make rice cakes... Hey, why are there so many presents?"

Lu Weiwei smiled and said, "Uncle Wang came just in time, help me move everything in."

Mrs. Li and Aunt Li were watching Mama Wang and Sister-in-law Zhu making glutinous rice cakes in the open space outside the kitchen. Seeing that Lu Weiwei and Uncle Wang brought in seven or eight gift boxes one after another, they all wondered, "Where do these things come from?" What about Achang?"

Lu Weiwei waited for her breathing to calm down before she smiled and said, "It's all a birthday gift from my cousin and I to my aunt...to coax you and your mother. It was when we got out of school yesterday that a classmate accidentally startled the horse. We all fell, and Cousin Che fell the heaviest, so today I specially sent someone to apologize..."

Before he finished speaking, Mrs. Li shouted: "No wonder you smelled of medicine and wine in your room last night, and you told me that you were bitten by a mosquito. Settle accounts with you carelessly!"

Lu Weiwei laughed dryly, "It wasn't a heavy fall, mother, don't worry. Cousin Che fell the hardest to save my cousin and me. Not to mention his clothes were torn, I heard that he had a fever last night. "

Now Aunt Li's face changed: "You two are worried, why didn't you tell me earlier? Wang Mama didn't send enough things yesterday, and today your cousin sent them again. It turned out to be because of this. No, I have to go to Gen Sansao's house to have a look and thank you face to face."

Lu Weiwei hurriedly smiled and said: "Don't go, auntie. Cousin said that the third aunt didn't blame us, but was very grateful that we sent so many things. Cousin Che broke out in sweat. Let's rest for another night tonight. It will definitely be fine, if you go, he will not be able to rest well."

Then Aunt Li stopped insisting on going to Li Che's house, and instead told Wang Ma: "Send another chicken to Mrs. Gensan's house. Anyway, there are too many chickens to kill, and our family can't finish it. By the way, let's soak those in advance. The dried vegetables and the fresh meat and vegetables that cannot be stored for a long time are all sorted out, and when the glutinous rice cakes are ready, they will be sent to the uncle and Su Ri who are close to our family, and by the way, tell them not to come for dinner today."

Mrs. Li hurriedly added, "Let's just say that my in-law's aunt is really sick, and my wife is not in the mood to entertain you. Please forgive me."

Wang Ma was busy, and when the glutinous rice cakes were almost finished, she went to work with Mrs. Zhu.

Mrs. Li brought a dustpan, and at the same time broke the battered glutinous rice cakes into small pieces, and made them into various shapes, calling Aunt Li and Lu Weiwei to eat, "Sister-in-law, Xiaowei, eat it while it's hot."

While persuading Aunt Li in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, don't be angry, didn't you agree that you will always be happy today?"

Lu Weiwei ate a piece of glutinous rice cake and said with a smile: "Auntie, the gift I received just now seems to have a few pieces of silk. I feel it is so slippery. How about making clothes for you and your cousin? Mom, you can make a suit too, and you can wear it when the time comes." If you go out, people will definitely tell you where the three sisters came from."

Both Li Shi and Aunt Li laughed, "You can talk about it every day, your cousin is a little girl like a flower bone, don't call her old."

Lu Weiwei smiled, "I didn't say my cousin is old, the main reason is that my mother and aunt are young. I'll send the rice cakes to my cousin."

After picking up a few pieces of glutinous rice cakes, put them in small plates, and knocked on Li Yue's door.

Fortunately, after a few calls, Li Yue responded in a weak voice: "Cousin, come in.", and did not turn her away.

Lu Weiwei pushed open the door and entered the room.

I saw Li Yue sitting at the table by the window, at first glance she was still as youthful and beautiful as usual, but upon closer inspection, one could immediately find that her entire body was drained of energy, Let her be like a blanched cabbage, only lifeless, no more vitality.

Lu Weiwei felt very upset for a moment, she stepped forward and sat opposite Li Yue, Fang smiled and said, "Cousin, today's glutinous rice cake is delicious, eat it while it's hot."

Li Yue was not in the mood to eat, and said absent-mindedly: "Leave it alone, I'll eat later, and if my cousin has something to do, I'll help you first."
