Chapter 62(1/2)

After reading the letter, Miantang sniffed the fragrance of flowers on the letter paper for a while, and for a moment, there seemed to be bees buzzing in his ears.

The man was also sick. Since he was full of bees, why did he still have to wash it? He said he had been stung by bees several times, and he didn't know if it was serious or not...

When Miantang noticed that the corner of his mouth was curled up inadvertently, he felt a stern in his heart. He quickly put away his smile, then slowly got up, put the letter in the warm stove and burned it.

However, she had already pinched the dried Fengyao flower on the stove. After thinking about it, she still stuck it in a book she read every day. The fragrance of the flowers is so amazing that it can make the pages of the book more fragrant.

After all this trouble, the previous laziness disappeared a little. Miantang combed her hair and prepared to change her clothes after dinner.

She got up a little late, so she had a bit of breakfast. In addition to a small casserole of rice porridge, there was also a plate of rouge and goose liver. It seemed that Fan Hu still tried to stuff Xueyan into the kitchen of Lu Mansion in the end.

Miantang didn't want to eat it, but when he thought that he couldn't waste the ingredients, he finally picked up a chopstick, but when he ate it, he couldn't remember the sweet taste in his memory.

After a quick drink of porridge, she wanted to go to the account to check the accounts.

However, halfway through, my second aunt Quan was about to go to the account room to check on Gongzhong Huayong, so I happened to go with Miantang.

Miantang looked at her second aunt's face that was a little red from the cold, as if she had been in the garden for a long time.

But the second aunt said it was a "fault" to meet, and she couldn't ask her if she was waiting for her here early in the morning.

The road to the accounting office is not too long, but Quan seems to have endless questions. First, he asked Miantang what he did to the accounting office this time.

Mian Tang avoided the important things and said that he would only help his grandfather check out the expenditure accounts he had given to the escort agency's elders over the years and tidy up it up for him.

Then Quan asked Mian Tang implicitly what kind of family she wanted to find. She had a distant nephew, and her family was quite wealthy and honest and reliable, but she died a wife first, so he didn't mind whether the girl's house was the girl's house. He just didn't find the one she liked. If Mian Tang was interested, she could mention it to her father-in-law.

When Miantang heard this, he turned around and looked at his second aunt.

Quan was also looking at her with a smile, but his gaze seemed to have a different meaning. Miantang didn't mind that his second aunt knew that he had become a couple in the northwest, but it would be ridiculous for the second aunt to use this to make him feel.

So she couldn't help but laugh and said, "Thank you, my second aunt, for thinking about me, and choosing such a suitable one for me. But I really don't want to get married too early... When I arrived at the account, I went to check the accounts. My second aunt would do it alone..."

After saying that, she stepped into the account room. The account book had been set up on the small table in the room, and she was waiting for Miantang to read.

Seeing Mian Tang entering the inner room without looking back, Quan Shi suddenly felt loose and she looked unhappy. She talked to this girl, but the girl started to make a comeback!

Moreover, it is obviously the second housekeeper, but now my father-in-law has spoken about the expenses outside the mansion and handed over to Mian Tang. What's the matter?

The worst thing is that when he went to the temple to burn incense yesterday, Mrs. Shen from the big room also went there later. Mrs. Su was talking and asking Mrs. Shen about Liu Miantang, and she kept calling Quan to be frustrated.

Because when the Su family came to find him, they were entrusted by her father to bring a box for the Quan family, and then they stayed here for a few days.

My father didn't talk about marriage with the Su family at the beginning, but just revealed some meaning. Next, it depends on whether the daughter Quan family has the ability to get to the Su family when the Su family came to Xizhou for a trip.

Since she didn't say anything, if Mrs. Su changed her mind and fell in love with Miantang, what's the matter?

Last night, Quan was so anxious that he told her husband Lu Mu about Mrs. Su. But Lu Mu didn't care and hummed: "That's what Liu Miantang did. How brave did she have to dare to recruit such a wife!"

Quan felt that Lu Mu had something to say in his words, so he quickly sat up and pushed Lu Mu Wen.

Lu Mu knew that he had made a mistake. The things on Yangshan could not be said. So he picked up the unimportant ones and only talked about Miantang being deceived when he lost his memory and being a couple for two years.

However, when Lu Xian mentioned it to his younger brother, he didn't say who the man was. So Lu Mu felt that he was just a lie in the army and didn't care much. He just got angry for his niece and felt that the girl at home was taken advantage of.

But now at this link, Lu Mu secretly thanked Miantang for having such a secret relationship that it is difficult to marry a serious and good family, so he avoided his daughter Qingying missing a good marriage.

So he avoided the important things and only chose Miantang to go to the northwest with a military official and told Quan the story.

After hearing this, Quan grew up and spoke for a long time, saying, "You two uncles are really good! How could you lose Miantang and end up like this? If this is spread, let alone she can't be a human being, will our girl's reputation be ruined?"

Lu Mu glared and said, "Can we blame us for being uncles? It's her... Oh, I can't tell you clearly for a while. Anyway, you know the power of it. Don't tell me.

But with this, she would not compete with our Qingying for the Su family’s good marriage. Besides, Miantang’s father is not good at it, and Mrs. Su would not have been able to recruit a criminal for her son!”

Quan was a little relieved, so he was waiting for Miantang today and beat the drums for her. After all, she was pretty. If she had used this to make a condom for Mr. Su, wouldn’t the family make a terrible fuss?

Unexpectedly, the stinky girl made a fuss with her and ignored her. She also didn't think about whether her embarrassing things would be known to her, and whether she could still get married!

Quan took a few account books awkwardly and came back to his yard with anger.

Miantang was a little upset in the following days.

Perhaps because of Miantang's discovery, Fan Hu became generous and always waited in the back door for Fang Xie or Bi Cao to go out, entrusting them to bring something to Miss Liu.

After Miantang raised his two girls' ears and died, they dared not accept it again. As for the letter from Yuetou, Miantang no longer accepted it.

Miantang knew that in this life, people who should not even have a fate were probably the ones she and Cui Xingzhou had just gotten together by chance.

Since this is the case, I shouldn't have any regrets.

As a king of different surnames with outstanding achievements, he was so noble and was the son-in-law considered by the Queen Mother. And she was just a sinner's daughter. Not to mention being a dignified princess, she could not compare with ordinary innocent girls.

Maybe Cui Xingzhou also felt a little true love when he was with her and was obsessed with her. But what could the result be? Can he really take the blame for the world and stay with her?

If she was facing Cui Jiu from North Street, she would defend this marriage with great confidence. But he was Cui Xingzhou, the king of Huaiyang. His love for her was mixed together, and perhaps even he himself could not tell the truth.

Instead of doing this, it is better to break it off earlier and avoid the connection between each other.

After eating too much, Fan Hu no longer sent anything. Although Miantang knew that they were hiding in the dark, he did not come out to disturb her.

Bicao is very efficient in doing things. In the past few days, matchmakers always come to inquire about the Lu family’s granddaughter.

And Mrs. Su was about to leave after staying here for a few days, but for some reason, she had to stay several times because of some common affairs.

Miantang had met her several times in the garden. Every time Mrs. Su would ask her questions about the business at hand enthusiastically.

After implicitly inquiring that Miantang's business was just a steward for the Lu family, and her father was a death row prisoner in the court, Mrs. Su's enthusiasm decreased sharply and she regained her appreciation for Miss Lu Qingying.

However, Miantang kindly reminded her second aunt Quan and her cousin Qingying. She hoped that if her second uncle really wanted to get engaged to the Su family, she would not just listen to other people's introductions and had to go around the Su family in person to inquire.

Because she felt that the Su family was not as serious and wealthy as Master Quan introduced.

Perhaps because he was such a fake couple with Cui Xingzhou, Miantang learned a lot of bad things and had a brief understanding of people's manners. Many small details about the Su family and the son were not on the table.

According to her, a half-baked official relative like her second aunt was only half a dozen.

But the mother and daughter couldn't listen to Miantang's advice. Especially Lu Qingying, they determined that Miantang could not eat grapes and said that the grapes were sour. Maybe Mrs. Su looked down on her, so she instigated her behind the scenes.

Miantang actually had a plate of ingredients from Mr. Su. For example, Mr. Su has always met her in the garden recently, followed her to recite poems and talked about her, showing off her a lot.

To be honest, Miantang always thought that he might appreciate men like the gentle scholars. After all, the son of Ziyu was the one who was later Cui Xingzhou.

No matter whether the character of these two people is good or bad, they are not exaggerated people. If you pick one out, they are all nobles with unique talents.

While Miantang was suspicious that he was blinded by men, he also had a subtle sense of pride in his superb taste.

But when she arrived at Mr. Su, she really had a little bit of a "gentle and kindness". If it weren't for Mr. Su being the treasure held in the palm of his second uncle's family, Mian Tang could not help but want to kick him back when he followed him.

Anyway, she had already told her what she should have said to her second uncle's family. If they believed that she was sore, she would not be able to say anything else. She could only say something to her grandfather behind her back, so that he could know what she knew and then check it for her second uncle's family.

However, what Quan Shixi said in a hurry on this day seemed to confirm that Miantang took a look and underestimated the Su family.

It turned out that Quan had agreed with Mrs. Su to go to Cuihualou to taste the famous crispy duck in Xizhou.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Su said that one of her distant nephews also came to Xizhou, so Mr. Su Mian was the host and wanted to host a banquet for her cousin at Cuihualou. Since it was a family gathering, she had to break the appointment with Quan.

Quan asked indirectly and then he realized that the nephew that Mrs. Su mentioned was actually a hereditary marquis.

She had long heard from her father that the Su family had a noble relative who was supported by someone, and Mr. Su Mian had a bright future. Now it seems that it is real!

This Mrs. Su was just visiting Xizhou, and the relative of the marquis actually came with her. It can be seen that the cousins ​​in the distance are intimate.

The Quan family is now determined to marry her daughter to the Su family, and she also regards the marquis as her own relative.

But now they were not able to meet the family banquet in Cuihualou. They were really upset. They were thinking about what reason to find tomorrow, so they asked Mr. Su to recommend him so that his second master could also pay homage to the marquis.

Perhaps God heard her prayer, and when the afternoon approached, the Su family, the mother and son of the Lu family, came back, they even brought a distinguished guest.

When seven or eight canopy carriages were parked in front of the Lu Mansion, they all looked around in the street.

My goodness, even the iron wraps on the wheels are gilded and treasured, which makes people gaze.

The servant guarding the gate trotted to Lu Wutong: "Old... Master, a distinguished guest is coming at the door! Mr. Su said that it was Zhennan Hou of Zhenzhou Prefecture to come to our place for a trip. He heard that the cold plums in our mansion had a newly opened yard. He came to visit with Mr. Su and enjoyed the plum blossoms casually!"

After hearing this, Lu Wu was not as panicked as the gatekeeper. He had traveled around the country for so many years and had seen more noble people.

Besides, the plum blossoms in their family bloomed just two days ago, and they were not as grand as the plum forests in the suburbs. What was going on when the Marquis looked at the Lu family with a long eye?

Lu Wu frowned and ordered the old servant to change his clothes for him, and then went out to greet him.

When he reached the door with a cane, the couple of the second wife had arrived early, with a happy look on their faces, and led their children to kneel at the door to greet them. As for the big room, Lu Xian was not at home when he went out to do things. Only the eldest daughter-in-law Shen led Mian Tang out of a moon gate, and then knelt down on one side of the door to greet them.

Before Lu Wu got closer, he noticed sharply that the Marquis of Zhennan passed by a group of people and looked straight at Miantang, as if he was eager to help her up.

And his granddaughter Mian Tang quickly looked up and glared at the Marquis of Zhennan. His eyes were filled with murderous aura, which was as if he dared to take a step forward and fight for his life...

The strangest thing is that the dignified marquis actually shrank for a moment, then honestly greeted Lu Mu first, and then asked a group of women to get up without a gift.

At this moment, Lu Wu walked over and naturally wanted to salute the marquis. But before he could fully recover, he was already helped up by Zhennan Hou and said very kindly: "You are Mr. Lu, the old escort leader of the famous Shenwei Escort Agency. You are so old, so you don't have to be too polite to me. You should go inside and drink tea while chatting!"

The marquis, whose courtesy name is Jiayu, is really a straightforward person. After saying that, without waiting for the owner to speak, he took the lead in walking in front of him, leading everyone to follow him into the front hall.

When he arrived at the hall, he gave in politely to Lu Wu, and then sat down in the main seat without any hesitation, letting all the men, women, young and old sit down, and be casual, don't be restrained, just treat him as a relative, friend and old friend.

However, most of the people here are not very sociable and are silent and embarrassed for a moment. They don’t know what to talk to this marquis who suddenly appeared.

Fortunately, there is a long-sleeved dancer in the second room. He is always talking about Mr. Zhao. As he chats, he really feels like a close friend who hates to meet too late.

Mian Tang sat down for a while, and when Mr. Zhao praised Senior Lu Wu for being blessed, his children and grandchildren were all talented, and when the girls looked at the virtuous, they stood up at the right time and said they wanted to change their clothes. They naturally left the front hall and stopped going back.

She really returned to her yard to change her clothes, then took a carriage from the back door and went to the Conscience Escort Agency.

The escort agency's business has been good these two days, so she took advantage of the afternoon to check it out.
To be continued...
