54. The measurement of the old lady
The stepson's tone was as cold as an ice blade. She felt a chill when she stabbed her body. She knew that her nephew was not easy to mess with when Zhou entered the Lu family. She was only ten years old at that time, not to mention that she was a mighty general personally named by the emperor. She knew quite well that the old lady of the Lu family was just a decoration. The head of the Lu family was Lu Jingtian. If he decided it was a matter, he had no room for him to interrupt.
Even so, but thinking that Du was Jingtai Chongxi's wife, she let her stepson take over and still had to marry her seriously. It was too bullying. When she thought that Jingtai was alone in the underworld and had no wife, she felt uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, he spoke: "It's okay if you blame your aunt in the past, but Jingtai is always your brother. He died of illness at a young age. If he had lost his wife, wouldn't he become a lonely ghost in the underworld? Is it so cruel that you are your brother?"
Lu Jingtian narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Zhou. Because he was a sister, Zhou looked quite similar to his mother in his memory. But this woman was not as gentle as her mother. She was calculating in her eyes. When it comes to Jingtai, Lu Jingtian sarcastically smiled: "Isn't it my aunt who sent her sister-in-law to my bed that day? Isn't it just that I marry her now? Isn't it just the aunt's wish?"
Zhou's face changed: "You, what are you talking about?"
Lu Jingtian: "Is it nonsense? My aunt knows it well. I don't want to investigate these things in depth, but if my aunt feels tired of calming down and insists on finding trouble, then let's get through the old accounts, such as whose kind of your good son is?"
Zhou was shocked and his face changed a few times and said, "You child, you joked with your aunt. Marrying a wife and having children is a great event for the Lu family. My aunt has been waiting for it for many years, and now it is complete all at once. My aunt is also happy. When she is happy, she will inevitably be a little picky. I think you are a mighty general named by the emperor. Many famous families are rushing to marry you. What kind of thing do you want to choose? Du is just a country girl. I was not happy to cheer for Jingtai. Now you want to marry her. I am afraid that she, a country girl, will not understand the rules and will be embarrassed after passing the family. You are an official in the court, and decent is a first-class matter."
Lu Jingtian: "I should thank my aunt for thinking about me. But I like the country girl. What do I fear if I don't understand the rules? If I marry her, she is the eldest grandmother of the Lu family. What she says is the rules." He said that, and turned around, and didn't even want to give Zhou the minimum respect.
Zhou's face turned blue and white, and with force, she scattered the strings of Buddhist beads in her hand. The beads on her wrists were scattered all over the ground. The Liu Ma, who was serving next to her, hurriedly squatted to pick them up. She picked up all the beads on the ground and put them on her wrist again. However, she saw the old lady staring at her coldly. Liu Ma, couldn't help but chill. She was the old lady's dowry girl. No one knew better than her what the old lady had done. It was because of this that the old lady would suspect her.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly knelt on the ground: "I am loyal to the old lady, and I can express my loyalty to you."
Zhou's face was gloomy and calm. After a while, he helped her up: "I didn't say anything, why are you anxious? You have been following me since I was a child. Who else can you believe if I don't believe me?"
Mrs. Liu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and whispered: "Old lady, don't worry, there is a way to do everything."
Zhou: "You are confused. Now you are different from the past. Lu Jingtian brought the wild man back. He married that bitch just to clear his own wild man's name. If the eldest son has children, what's wrong with the second son?"
Mrs. Liu leaned into the old lady's ear and muttered a few words. The old lady's face flashed with viciousness. Yes, the matter is due to human affairs. Since she could become the wife of the Lu family, she would definitely be able to maintain this wealth and glory. As for the method, there will always be something. She will think about it carefully.
After thinking for a while, I really came up with an idea. After giving a few instructions to Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Liu turned around and went out to the Zhou family.
Du Ruo didn't have time to pay attention to Chen Zhima Lianguzi in the Lu Mansion anymore because the carriage had already stopped at General Mountain. When Du Ruo came all the way up from the bottom of the mountain, he didn't feel that when he saw the yard halfway up the mountain, Du Ruo couldn't help but be surprised. Although the design drawings were drawn by himself, he didn't expect them to become a reality.
When she left here five years ago, she just started construction, but later she ran away. She thought Lu Jingtian would tear down the place when she was angry, but she didn't expect that it would be built.
Du Ruo, who was struggling in the noisy city, always had a dream of returning home to the garden, so when he came here, he didn't feel unacceptable. Instead, he was a little lucky. If he hadn't been confused by Lu Jingtian's seemingly innocent appearance, regarded him as a hunter at the foot of the mountain, and was greedy for free technical labor, and wanted to keep him on the mountain and seduce him, but he would not have been involved later. I guess she would have lived her own stable mountain life this time.
From this we can see that cheapness is to be fooled. It is a truth that has never changed throughout the ages. If you are greedy for cheapness, you will definitely be fooled.
Lu An measured her expression and could not tell whether it was Huanxi or something else. This man used to be in the mansion with his head down every day and couldn't even see what he looked like. Who was impatient to guess what she was thinking, and no one cared about Huanxi or sadness, but now it was different. He became the old man five years ago, and now he even gave birth to a young master. When he got married, he would be a serious grandma. According to the uncle's intention to this man, Lu An believed that as long as this man was happy, he would be happy, and the life they would be better for the next job. If this man was unhappy, the old man would be unhappy, and the hard days for them to take the next job will come.
Du Ruo didn't mind Lu An. She stepped on the stone steps, and came from the mountain road to the stone steps in the yard. Following the steps, there was a circle of dense bamboo fences. At the end of the steps was a fence gate. A circle of roses was planted outside the fence. The vines climbed and grew along the fence. There were dense roses blooming among the vines. A gust of wind passed, and the fragrance of flowers was fragrant and refreshing.
The rice in the rice fields on the side has risen half a foot high, and the planting is dense and dense. I think there will be a good harvest in a few months. On the other side, a few spring leeks in the vegetable garden have grown taller, green and gratifying. In such a prosperous situation, someone must have carefully taken care of. Did Lu Jingtian specially sent someone to take care of it?
