The south wind also entered my arms

Chapter 166

Coming down from the attic, Lu Chengyu walked out of the Lu mansion without looking sideways, and drove away without letting Song Qi follow.

If the Lu mansion is the place where the heirs of the Lu family lived, then the old Lu family house in the outer suburbs is the residence of the previous heirs, and now it is lived by Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu.The old house was built earlier than the Lu mansion, and it has a bit more old-fashioned atmosphere than the Lu mansion.

Lu Chengyu parked the car at the door, and the butler of the old house came to greet him, and took the initiative to report: "Master, the master has already fallen asleep, and the lady is drinking tea in the tea room."

Lu Chengyu nodded.

Mrs. Lu likes to drink tea, so she chose a room with a window facing the garden as a tea room in the old house. Apart from entertaining relatives and friends, she also likes to drink alone in it when she is free.Lu Chengyu walked through the patchwork courtyard until he arrived at the tea room. The door was open, as if he was waiting for someone.

He walked in, and was greeted with the tea fragrance released by the boiling spring water. The fragrance of the tea was refreshing, and he said in a warm voice, "Mom still likes Anji white tea."

Mrs. Lu knelt behind the tea table, wearing beige linen clothes, which were loose and comfortable, plus she handled the tea leaves with her own hands, and the smoke curled up with a sense of immortality far away from the world. She raised her head and glanced at Lu Chengyu Smiling lightly: "This year's new tea has just been delivered, you are lucky."

Lu Chengyu sat down on the straw futon opposite her, and glanced at the tea box on the table: "Anji white tea only grows in Tianmu Mountain, and it needs to be stored at low temperature. From there, it can be transported to Rongcheng without any damage. people have a heart."

Mrs. Lu said: "Sang Yutuo brought it to me."

The water for making tea is boiled on a small stove. When Lu Chengyu saw that the water was boiling, he put a towel on it and picked up the kettle, and poured hot water into the teapot. ?”

"Although your father has four children, you are always too busy to manage a group and a family. The eldest and fourth are abroad. The only person who can talk to me is Sang Yu." Tea slowly Slowly relaxing in warm water, releasing a slightly astringent taste, Madam Lu lowered her eyes as if she was looking at tea.

But Lu Chengyu looked at her: "I heard that my mother went to Beicheng in person four or five months ago. It seems that you really love Sangyu, but it's a pity that she has gone abroad to work now, and I'm afraid she won't have much in the future." Time to chat with mother."

Hearing the date he mentioned intentionally or unintentionally, Mrs. Lu's eyes flashed, she picked up the teapot and tilted it, the tea was poured into the justice cup through the tea strainer, and the finely broken tea leaves mixed in the tea were filtered out. Because the old lady of Qiao's family passed away, I went to offer my condolences and stop by to see her. Sangyu is still young and has an important career, and foreign countries are good places, so just go."

"In a few months, Nanfeng's child will be born. Mother, you will have a grandson. Then I will ask her to bring the child to visit you and father in the old house." Lu Chengyu's lips parted, "Nanfeng is very interesting. , mother, if you talk to her, you will also like her."

Mrs. Lu just smiled: "Really?"

The justice cup pours the same amount of tea into the two teacups evenly. The white tea is very light in color, and the crystal teacup can just show the light green.

Lu Chengyu spoke softly: "Although Nanfeng is sometimes casual, she has good morals in all aspects, and I have obtained a marriage certificate for her, and she is a legitimate couple. Chengyu doesn't ask her mother to accept her immediately, I just hope Mother can look at her with ordinary eyes, and don't do things that are sorry for her status as "Mrs. Lu."

The topic twisted and turned, and finally came to the point. Mrs. Lu raised her head, and the mother and son looked at each other through the scent of tea.

Lu Chengyu's pupils were black, and it seemed calm, but in fact, when you go in, you can still see a faint coldness coming out of it, carrying the unique authority of the head of the family: "If there is something wrong with Nanfeng, mother may as well say it bluntly, She is very smart, she knows everything, and she will definitely not do it again next time."

"Last time, I asked Song Qi to tell my mother that the south wind is afraid of the cold, and there will be no next time for punishment like putting her in the freezer. No matter whether my mother takes this sentence to heart or not, she is now pregnant with the Lu family's baby." There is no room for loss of flesh and blood, if the mother can't accept her for the time being, don't go to the Lu mansion again, she is pregnant and has a bad temper, she may offend the mother, and moreover, she also needs to rest."

Mrs. Lu frowned slightly. His emphasis, and what he meant to express, were too obvious. She stared at her: "Are you sure she is pregnant with your child? Chengyu, a person accused her It may be slander, two people accusing her may be jealousy, but if three or four or even a group of people accuse her, then she must be at fault."

"Mother forgot the principle of 'Three people become tigers'?" Lu Chengyu said calmly, "She is my wife, and if I say she is not wrong, she is not wrong."

Mrs. Lu pursed her lips slightly, a little displeased, but Lu Chengyu had already stood up: "I think Steward Fang listened to my mother's orders very much, so I transferred him to the old house. I borrowed Aunt Su from my grandmother."

After speaking, he said goodbye and left.

The tea that took a lot of effort to brew was still in the cup, and no one took a sip.

Madam Lu sat alone in the tea room for a long time, until Aunt Su brought a document bag: "Madam, the inspection report is out."

Mrs. Lu was holding the thin leather bag, which contained the results of Nanfeng's amniotic fluid test. She stared at the seal, and countless dark lights flashed in her eyes in that short moment. Suddenly, she threw the document into the boiling water in the stove.Aunt Su was slightly startled, but she heard her voice coldly: "The Lu family doesn't need a young lady who is not innocent, let alone an eldest grandson whose biological mother is not innocent."

Aunt Su said solemnly, "But young master..."

Mrs. Lu got up without saying a word, and when she left the tea table, her body bumped into the unpreserved Anji white tea on the table, and the tea leaves were scattered all over the floor, but she didn't even look at it.

……

The next day, when Nan Feng woke up, she unexpectedly found that the iron chains that had locked her hands were gone, and someone had applied a thin layer of ointment to the worn skin on her wrists.

She stared at her hands for a minute, her expression still indifferent, and got up to wash.

When it was time for breakfast, Aunt Mei was the one who brought her food in the past, but today it was a strange middle-aged man. Come up."

In the past, when Nan Feng saw this kind of stranger, she would just ignore him, but after having that weird man and that handkerchief from yesterday, she had some more thoughts in her mind, and it was rare for her to ask, "Who are you?"

He said modestly: "Young madam, I am the new housekeeper of the mansion, my surname is Xia."

New housekeeper?
Butler Fang was dismissed?
This made Nanfeng a little surprised. She remembered Fang Butler once said that his family had been the butler of the Lu Mansion for three generations. He was regarded as highly respected in the Lu family. How could he be suddenly replaced?

Doubts are doubts, and after Nanfeng confirmed that Steward Xia had nothing to do with that weird man yesterday, he returned to indifference.

For a long time to come, Nanfeng was still as reticent as he had been in the past few months, and the Lu mansion was also safe and sound. At first glance, it seemed to be calm.

Only Nanfeng knew that she could not calm down long ago.

But she still has to endure.

She still has to wait.

……

As spring goes and summer comes, Rongcheng enters summer.

Nanfeng is still imprisoned, and she can only leave the cage and the Lu mansion once a month—that is, during the birth checkup at the end of each month, Lu Chengyu will only appear in front of her on this day and take her out. Watch her the whole time, and bring her back after the inspection.

During the fourth prenatal examination, the doctor looked at the B-ultrasound sheet with a strange expression, and then read the other examination data several times, and then there was a trace of confusion on his face.

Lu Chengyu naturally noticed it, and frowned: "Is there a problem?"

"The B-ultrasound examination showed that the growth of the fetus is very slow, but according to the results of the comprehensive obstetrical examination and palace height examination, it is normal." The doctor thought for a moment, and finally showed an expression of nothing serious, "Maybe Madam Ling's recent I don’t have a good appetite, after all, whether the fetus is healthy or not is closely related to the mother’s body, after returning home, prepare some foods that Madam Ling likes and give her some nutrition.”

Lu Chengyu reconfirmed uneasy: "That's all?"

"Mrs. Ling had signs of miscarriage when she was first pregnant. It may be due to sequelae, which caused the fetus to grow slowly, but it is not a serious problem. At most, it will be a little thinner when it is born in the future, and it can be made up the day after tomorrow." The doctor thought for a while. There was only this explanation, "Don't worry, the child is still very healthy."

After the prenatal checkup, Lu Chengyu ordered the kitchen of the mansion to eat small and frequent meals every day, from the original three or four meals to five or six meals, and asked the family doctor to check her pulse every day.Nanfeng didn't say anything about it, and it was still the same as before. Eat it when it is delivered, and don't eat it if you can't eat it. They will fiddle with the rest.

……

It was July, and it was the hottest time in Rongcheng. Aunt Mei was afraid that the south wind would be uncomfortable, so she squeezed a glass of apple juice for her every night.

Nanfeng drank the apple juice and continued to read, Aunt Mei reminded: "Young Madam, you have to go for a check-up tomorrow, go to bed early."

Nan Feng paused when he heard the words, and immediately realized - yes, it's been another month, and before she knew it, she was seven months pregnant.

She had been imprisoned by him for... seven months.

A sneer slowly released from her lips, she was used to being locked up, and she felt that a month had passed so quickly.

Aunt Mei knew that Nanfeng liked to be quiet, so she went out without any orders.

Nanfeng continued to read. Because the air conditioner was turned on in the house, she was covered with a thin blanket. She held the book in one hand and put the other hand on her abdomen to caress unconsciously. Suddenly, her hand stopped, and she slowly lowered her head to look at the raised Stomach, it's so strange... I haven't felt anything lately...

Habit is a terrible thing.

For example, after being imprisoned for a long time, she actually started to feel used to it. She obviously couldn't stay for a day before, but now she doesn't even feel that a month has passed.

Another example is this child.

Because it happened by accident, and when she found him, it happened to be the beginning of the conflict between her and Lu Cheng. How long she was pregnant with this child meant how long she was trapped by Lu Cheng. She also suffered because of this child. So much humiliation, so Nanfeng thought he had no feelings for him.If Lu Chengyu hadn't threatened her with her brother, she would have taken it away long ago.

Until one day, when she was reading a book, her stomach suddenly moved. The feeling was so clear that she froze on the spot.

There was a second time after the first time, and it became more and more frequent. She put her palm on her belly several times and could feel the movement inside.This child, who she didn't want to keep and was not liked by her, carefully responded to her temptation, using his hands and feet to gently touch her to tell her that she was not alone in the cage, He was there all night long.

Maybe it was the silent communication with life that moved her, or maybe it was the so-called kinship. Gradually, she lost her initial disgust for this child, and even developed a subtle feeling that she couldn't explain clearly.

Looking at it from another angle, she was imprisoned here, and it was not Aunt Mei or Lu Chengyu who really accompanied her, but this child.

Only this child.

her child.

But recently, especially these two days, she seems...can't feel him anymore...

Suddenly panicked, Nanfeng stood up abruptly, and subconsciously wanted to call the doctor, but on second thought, the family doctor came to check her pulse every day. If there was any problem with the child, the doctor could not have noticed it.

... She must have thought too much.

... Forget it, I have a prenatal check-up tomorrow, and if there are any problems, it will be clear at a glance.

With this thought in mind, Nan Feng settled down, turned off the light and went to bed.

……

Sleeping until midnight, Nanfeng suddenly heard the slight sound of unlocking the lock.

She opened her eyes in the darkness, and there was a faint light on the bedside.

It was dark and there was no one around.

But there was indeed a sound of unlocking just now...

She got up and walked to the door of the cage, touched the place where it was usually locked with her hand, and was stunned for a moment——the lock is really unlocked!
Suddenly, she remembered the handkerchief two months ago.

There are five words written on it.

'He's in the basement'.
