Chapter 0093 Lu House Birthday Banquet (5)
Luo Cheng hurried to the yard where his mother lived in the back house. As soon as he entered the room, he found that his father was also sitting aside with a gloomy face. Luo Cheng sighed in his heart. It seemed that his father must be for Zhang Xuan's business.¢£,
He had to bite the bullet and kneel down and salute, "Children, see my father, my mother!"
Luo Cheng's mother, Lu, looked at her husband and whispered: "Ziyan" means something, and I hope he will not blame his son strictly.
Luo Yi was also born in a family of generals. When he was young, he was as handsome as his son Luo Cheng. At that time, his father Luo Rong was an army envoy in Yuyang County and had a very good relationship with Lu Shen, so the two families formed a son and a marriage.
But Luo Cheng was just like his father's appearance, but his personality was very different from his father. Luo Yi was cunning, stubborn, and used all means to do things. However, he concealed it very well, and even his own wife and children could not see it.
Luo Yi said coldly without showing any expression: "You should know about Zhang Xuan!"
"Qi Bian, the child thinks that Yuan Ding is not the fault of this matter, so he can't blame him."
"I know very well the right and wrong of this matter. He is a small guard, how can he provoke a great general, but I only care about the result and I won't do anything to him, but I hope he will move out of Luo Mansion today."
"Father, how can this be done!" Luo Cheng became anxious. Now it was too much to drive people from Lu's mansion, but his own father wanted to drive people away.
"There is no question of whether it is okay. I am the head of the family. Of course, I have the final say. I will only tell you for your sake. Find a tactful excuse to ask him to leave! As for the money is not a problem, I can give him some compensation."
Luo Cheng took a deep breath and said, "But why did my father ask the child to open this mouth? I invited him, and now I want me to drive him away, I can't do it!"
"evil creature!"
Luo Yi slapped the table hard. "You dare to talk back to me!"
Mrs. Lu said anxiously, "Yu Lang, why not do this. Aren't you going to Xiangyang to visit your grandfather next month? You simply leave early and ask Mr. Zhang to go with you. If he wants, he will go to Xiangyang with you."
Mrs. Lu asked her husband again. "Ziyan, do you think this is OK?"
Luo Yi knew his son's temper, he was stubborn and stubborn, and he might not be willing to listen if he was tough, so he might as well! As long as Zhang Xuan left Luo Mansion, Yuwen Shu might not know where he was going, Luo Yi stroked his beard and said to Luo Cheng: "I just want to give in to your mother. You can take him to Xiangyang, and you must leave early tomorrow morning at the latest."
Luo Cheng lowered his head and said nothing. But he also knew that this was the best way, otherwise his father would not have to go through himself. He just sent someone to hint to Zhang Xuan. With Zhang Xuan's personality, he would leave immediately. In that case, his friendship with Zhang Xuan would be over.
"Okay! That's it."
Luo Cheng agreed, turned around and left quickly. Luo Yi stroked his beard and looked at him walking away, and couldn't help but curse secretly: "Boy, I have no official mind at all!"
"Cousin, what happened?"
As soon as Luo Cheng walked out of the yard, he met his cousin Lu Yun. Lu Yun is Lu Yi's youngest daughter. She is only fourteen years old this year. She has liked her cousin Luo Cheng since she was a child. In the past two years, her heart has been tied to Luo Cheng tightly.
Luo Cheng was upset, and the little girl came to pester him again. He yelled softly, "Don't bother me!"
He threw his hand away, shook his cousin and walked towards the front yard without looking back. Lu Yun was stunned for a moment, looking at her cousin's back as she left, her eyes suddenly turned red.
"My sister Yun, what's wrong with Yulang?" The voice of her cousin Lu Qing came from beside her.
Lu Yun was extremely aggrieved and threw herself into her cousin's arms and started crying. Lu Qing stroked her cousin's hair and said with a smile: "Your brother Yulang seems to be very upset. Don't mess with him at this time."
"I originally wanted to comfort him and give him some advice on how to deal with General Yuwen, but he ignored him." Lu Yun sobbed.
"You ran to eavesdrop again, beware your aunt was angry."
"I'm kind, sister Qing, why don't we help my cousin!" Lu Yun begged, shaking her sister's arm.
Lu Qing shook his head gently. Needless to say, General Yuwen must be Yuwen Shu. I heard that Yuwen Shu is arrogant and domineering, and it is really unfortunate to provoke him, but the Lu family is too snobbish.
"We don't even know anything, how can we help him?"
"I know, I heard it just now. It seems that my cousin's friend has provoked General Yuwen. The Lu family wants to drive him out."
Lu Qing smiled, "What a silly girl. There are at least a few hundred guests in the mansion. We don't know what his friends are called and what they look like, so how can we help?"
"It seems that the surname is Zhang, by the way, his name is Zhang Xuan!"
Lu Qing was stunned like a lightning strike. Yunmei asked her several times, but she seemed to be unaware. She had only one thought in her mind, "So he is here! It turns out that he is not far away from her."
"Sister Qing, what's wrong with you? Are you sick?"
Seeing that the elder sister seemed to be stupid, Lu Yun was anxious and shook her arm desperately. Lu Qing finally reacted. She bit her lip and said, "I'll go find my grandfather."
"What are you going to do with my grandfather?"
"I want my grandfather to know that I must know how to repay kindness!"
Mr. Lu's birthday ceremony was officially started at Shen Shi, which was 4:00 p.m. Lu Shen was invited to the lobby and sat upright under the huge character "Birthday". The guests came forward to celebrate his birthday in turn. The atmosphere was extremely warm and the birthday celebration was not long. Next was a grand birthday banquet, which was the highlight.
The Lu family spent a lot of money to prepare for this birthday party, and included all the ten best restaurants in Jixian City, specializing in serving birthday party banquets. Unfortunately, the Lu family does not have a spacious hall and cannot let all guests sit together. They can only be divided into three places: the middle hall, the east courtyard and the west courtyard.
There were about fifty people in the central hall, all of whom were noble and high-ranking officials from the court, and they were single seats. Each of them was served by a maid. Everyone was gathering together, drinking and drinking, and a group of dancers in the hall were dancing gracefully, with the sound of silk and bamboo and laughing constantly.
The East Courtyard is hosted by the heads or representatives of famous families, as well as high-ranking officials from various places, with about a hundred people sitting at a table for each two, but the wine and food are separated.
The rest of the people sit in the west courtyard, so the most people are in the west courtyard. The main ones are family members and young children from major families, with two or three hundred people, basically four people at a table, with men and women attending the seats separately. Because the hall is too small, most people sit in the yard. However, the weather is hot, and sitting in the yard is cool and the breeze is rippling, which has a picnic charm.
Zhang Xuan was arranged to sit in a corner that was almost unnoticed by others. Everyone had a four-person table, but he was a single table. The Lu family also took great pains to drive him away, nor could Yuwen Shu be dissatisfied, and could only use this method of cold treatment.
Luo Cheng is the grandson of Mr. Lu. He had special arrangements and was arranged to sit with several generals in the East Courtyard. Luo Yi hoped to take this opportunity to let his son get to know the senior officials in the court.
Luo Cheng sat with Zhang Xuan for a while with guilt. Zhang Xuan smiled and said, "There is no need to be guilty of this little thing. I won't be able to bear it yet. Go! Don't neglect the guests."
"Then I'll be wronged, I'll be punished again later." Luo Cheng bowed and stood up and went back to the East Courtyard.
Zhang Xuan poured himself a glass of wine without panic. He looked around and there was a courtyard wall on the left and behind him. There was also a table in front of him, with four young children sitting around. Although he didn't know what they were talking about, Zhang Xuan could also guess that they could glance at him from time to time, winking and laughing.
Zhang Xuan was too lazy to pay attention to them, and his eyes turned to the right again, but his brows frowned slightly. Not far from his right was the female family seat, with more than thirty tables in total. Yingying and Yanyan laughed constantly, and she was filled with ladies with thick makeup. A strong fragrance blew in the wind, completely replacing the fragrance of the wine and food. This is what made Zhang Xuan’s headache.
At this time, another strange fragrance wafted, with a smell of fruit fermentation, especially the fine powder wafting in the air, which penetrated his nostrils. Zhang Xuan put down the wine glass and couldn't help but sneeze. He quickly slapped the powder swelling with his hand in disgust.
A chuckle came from behind him. Zhang Xuan turned around and saw a young lady coming from the empty seat a dozen steps away from the upper right. He immediately recognized it. It was Lu Yun he met in the Lotus Garden in the afternoon.
‘What about Lu Qing?’
Zhang Xuan's heart was pounding. The two sisters have been together all the time, why are they separated now? Is it because of himself?
Lu Yun's seat should have been in the inner courtyard, but Lu Yun was extremely smart. She found that Qing Jie mentioned Zhang Xuan's name strange, so she vaguely guessed that Qing Jie might know Zhang Xuan.
Lu Yun changed into a bright red dress, making her look even more obedient and cute. She brought a glass of wine and curiously approached, "Are you Zhang Xuan?"
"I know you, you are Luo Cheng's cousin, and he always mentions you to me."
"Yeah?"
Lu Yun's eyes suddenly lit up and she asked anxiously: "Why did he say to me?"
Seeing that her eyes were full of expectations, Zhang Xuan couldn't bear to hit her, so he smiled and said, "He said he had two beautiful and cute cousins, one named Lu Yun and the other named "
"Called by Lu Qing——"
Lu Yun smiled and said, "If you want to ask, just ask directly, don't try to find out."
Zhang Xuan was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect this little girl to be so smart. He didn't know what to say. Lu Yun sighed and said, "Sister Qing was scolded by her uncle and hid in her room and cried!"
"Why?" Zhang Xuan finally couldn't help asking.
"Isn't it because of you? She thought you were going to be driven out by the Lu family, so she went to plead with her grandfather. As a result, she met her uncle halfway through and argued with her uncle, and was scolded by her uncle. I don't know what they were talking about."
Lu Yun's eyes were full of excitement and curiosity, and her concern for Sister Qing was far more than that of herself. She lowered her voice and smiled: "Don't worry, I will never tell you. Can you tell me how you and Sister Qing met?"
Zhang Xuan didn't hear what she was saying at all. He was still immersed in his heart. Lu Qing did not forget herself. She was still caring about herself so much. At this moment, Zhang Xuan suddenly felt something and looked back suddenly.
