The Sweet Little Fulang - Chapter 163
Lu Wenwen didn’t like the old lady of the Li family. After she became pregnant, because she was a descendant of the blood of the Li family, her situation was much better than before.
Li Mingshan is the only son of the Li family, he has no brothers and sisters, and his population is not prosperous. Who would have thought that he would be pregnant with one wife and one concubine. Outsiders all know that his wife and concubines are good, and his stomach is full of energy. The old lady was very relieved to hear it. Whether she was going to the temple to pray for blessings or giving charity, not only Luo Hongsi, but also Lu Wen brought it with her.
With the old lady’s eyes, Lu Wen can be regarded as a face in the Li family, and he has gained a lot of benefits. The food and clothing costs are better and more refined than before.
After he was pregnant, he sent a servant to announce the good news to Du Hehua. He was just a concubine. Even if Mrs. Li was happy to know that he was pregnant, she did not send someone to the Lu family to announce the good news. When Luo Hongsi diagnosed the happy pulse, She happily sent her close old mama to Luo’s house to announce the good news.
Lu Wen didn’t know the difference between himself and Luo Hongsi, but it was just a family. He believed that his character, appearance and talents were no worse than others. If it wasn’t for his family background, he would not have entered the Li family as a concubine.
Du Hehua has raised him for so many years, and he really treats him well. Even if he takes him to the Lu family to remarry, he will not suffer too many grievances, but he also knows that this is not just the credit of his own mother. He lost his father when he was young. After arriving at Lu’s house, he didn’t want to suffer from that kind of dependence, so he tried every means to make Lu Daxiang treat him as his own son. He was good-natured and diligent. Lu Daxiang treated him well, and later sent him to the town. If it weren’t for this, he wouldn’t let people send money, food and clothes to Lu Daxiang.
A countryman can spend a few bucks, but at most a few hundred copper coins, and it is only two or three taels when he is in the sky. He coaxed Li Mingshan to get a lot of private house money, not to mention that he can also be virtuous and filial by subsidizing his mother and stepfather. His name makes people know that he is not the one who dislikes the poor and loves the rich, and since he got pregnant, both the master and the old lady of the Li family have given them rewards, which is much better than that of Li Mingshan, who has not yet been in charge of the Li family.
It was only after he arrived at Li’s house that he realized how shallow his knowledge was in the past. A bowl of Yangchun noodles worth ten cents could be regarded as a treasure, and he would miss it when he couldn’t eat it. Fortunately, he was always cautious and never thought of himself in the countryside. Erzhi said to others, and only listened and watched from the sidelines, not daring to speak easily, otherwise many people would laugh at him.
After hearing that he was happy, Du Hehua grabbed an old hen from home and brought it, saying that he would make soup for him to replenish his body. Lu Wen naturally knew that his own mother was kind, but that chicken was really arrogant.
After he became pregnant, the Li family even cooked Jin Gui’s bird’s nest every three or five times for him. Not to mention the old hen, he could eat beef whenever he wanted. Although it was not as expensive as Luo Hongsi in the main courtyard, it was a world away from before. do not.
There were two more maids who served him, and there was an old nanny who was called from the old lady, saying that he was the first child and had no experience of having children, so he could find an older nanny to be with you at any time. On a side note, this is more secure.
Lu Wen himself didn’t want to criticize his old lady in the countryside, but Du Hehua was really poor and sour. Every time he came back to his yard, he would look around, even a spittoon was rare, causing him to lose face several times. , the one in the main courtyard even mocked him face to face.
The Luo family sent people to send all the precious bird’s nest and dietary supplements. Their family opened a silk and satin shop, and the silk and satin were carried in boxes into the main courtyard, not to mention the jewelry and jade. The old hen brought by the lotus looked so tiny, yet so dazzling.
Lu Wen didn’t know where the old lady came to ask for money in addition to sending chicken congratulations.
Du Hehua never followed the obvious request. Several maids in and outside the courtyard listened and watched. How could he lose face in this rich and noble family and say that the family is good, so he doesn’t need to worry about it. It’s just that Lu Wu has grown up recently, and the clothes It was all short, and she said that she missed her brother, but Fenggu Town was too far away, so she couldn’t bring Lu Wu.
Lu Wen stared at the old hen with her feet tied on the ground, and when she heard her words again, her face was gentle, but she was embarrassed. He was afraid of being laughed at by the servant girl, so he directly asked people to take silver taels and two pieces of cloth. , Excusing himself to be unwell and really tired, asking Du Hehua to go back and make new clothes for the whole family is also considered to be his son’s filial piety.
Du Hehua got the money and cloth, and when he returned to Anjia Village, his waist was straight and his chin was raised so high that everyone was smug when he saw them.
Since it was the old hen brought by his mother, Lu Wen couldn’t throw it away, let alone vent his breath. He pinched his nose and made a happy appearance, and ordered the maid to take the old hen to the kitchen to stew, and drink chicken soup when he woke up. .
After lying down, he asked the maids and maids to go down. The comparison of the old hen made his thoughts confused, and his heart was always unhappy.
Even if he became a Li family member after he got married, his mother’s stepfather still has that younger brother. If he doesn’t care about it, Li Mingshan doesn’t mention it. I don’t know what the old lady will think of him. Fortunately, the country people don’t spend a lot of money, and sometimes they give to Du. After the lotus blossoms, Li Mingshan came to him to rest, he said a few good words to coax him, and then he could make up for it.
Lu Wu was still young, but this cheap younger brother was born from the same mother’s womb as him.
Thinking of Lu Gu, although he resented the disrespect of the Shen family to him on the street, he also felt a sense of escape from catastrophe. Fortunately, he didn’t marry the hunter Shen Xuanqing.
Du Hehua once told him that the Shen family still lives by farming and hunting, selling pork and rabbit meat, and building a spacious mansion in which chickens, ducks and rabbits are raised. A lot of manure is picked out from the dung, and the crops will be plentiful in the coming year.
Every time he talked about the Shen family, his face was lackluster, but he never interrupted Du Hehua’s words, nothing else, every time he listened to it, he knew that he was right that he didn’t marry in the first place. Serving as a servant is much more comfortable than being a scumbag. Otherwise, things like plowing the fields, mowing the grass, picking up manure, and so on, would not fall on his head.
As for Lu Gu, with such a weak and cowardly temperament, he didn’t even dare to say a word. If he hadn’t taken advantage of this marriage, he might not have been able to get married. Thinking of this, he asked him to settle down a little. It’s a loss, but now it seems that Lu Gu has a personal place to go, and after a careful calculation, it is still him.
And what he thought in his heart, no one else could know.
Luo Biao is now gradually making a name for himself in the brothel. He doesn’t have to work so hard to patrol. At night, in order to prevent people from making trouble and to prevent people from running away in the building, he must be a little bit energetic. Now, when Shen Xuanqing comes to him, he will He was drinking and drinking alone in the room, humming the **** songs he heard in the building, and the brazier was lit on the ground. He was sitting cross-legged in front of the kang table in thick clothes, warm and very comfortable, and he also tasted a few points at his own discretion. happy.
He welcomed Shen Xuanqing into the room, poured a glass of wine and said with a smile: “Second brother Shen came by coincidence, I originally said to take a day off today and go home tomorrow, I never thought you would come here today.”
Without waiting for Shen Xuanqing to ask, his face brightened with joy, and he said, “The Li family has been very lively recently, there are at least two or three doctors who come in and out every day, both to protect the fetus and to look after the disease. Mrs. Li is out of rage and falls ill, so she needs another doctor.”
But in just a few words, some famous things were revealed. Shen Xuanqing was not surprised. If it wasn’t for the accident in the Li family, Lu Wen couldn’t care about it, and Du Hehua would not have been unable to enter the Li family’s door, and instead hit Lu Gu’s head.
Luo Biao didn’t give a shit, lowered his voice and said, “I guessed right, that Miss Yu has a bad disease and got infected with Li Mingshan.”
He drank half a glass of wine in his hand, wiped his mouth and smiled again: “Miss Yu is also very good, knowing that Li Mingshan likes to drag those sour words and poems, what is elegant and romantic, I don’t understand, others just If I can understand it, Li Mingshan is so fascinated by her that she has her soul attached to her, but unfortunately she has a bad life, but she got sick, otherwise, I think Li Mingshan would have to redeem her and go out of the building.”
If you want to inquire about things, you naturally have to pose. Seeing that he has finished drinking, Shen Xuanqing raises his hand and pours it for him again. He has no words but his eyes signal to continue talking.
“I haven’t found out why Li Mingshan is ill. The errand servant I found can’t get along with the servant girl next to the master. I only know that Li Mingshan has been lying in the room for seven or eight days. As for Lu Wen, he But I saw it from a distance. Lu Wen and Luo’s daughter were not both pregnant. Li Mingshan stayed in the brothel at that time and didn’t go back. The two met in the backyard garden. I don’t know what to say, Lu Wen cried, and Luo Hongsi was so good. , pushed Lu Wen down, and I heard people say that I saw the red immediately, but I saved it later.”
After Luo Biao finished speaking, he raised his glass and touched Shen Xuanqing. He was very displeased with someone like Lu Wen who was arrogant. Li Mingshan knew that Lu Wen had a marriage contract with Shen Xuanqing, but he didn’t take the Shen family seriously, and even more so. It’s not pleasing to his eyes. Now that both of them are unlucky, he can’t help but feel happy. This person has his own destiny. It’s not their fault that Lu Wen almost had a miscarriage. He can only blame himself for the bad luck.
“The Li family is in a mess, and even the golden and jade shops can’t take care of it.” Luo Biao took a chopstick and threw peanuts into his mouth and said with a smile: “How can it be so easy to get sick, if it doesn’t work, it will even kill you. Gotta get half of it off.”
At this point, Shen Xuanqing put down a stone in his heart, Li Mingshan really can’t support the wall, and Lu Wen and the Li family don’t need to pay more attention in the future. He poured wine for the two of them and asked, “Do you know the Xu family in town? There is a person named Xu Yanrong.”
“Xu’s family.” Luo Biao repeated in a low voice, thinking for a moment and said, “You are talking about the old master Xu who came back from Fucheng?”
Shen Xuanqing often comes to Fenggu Town. He sells prey, and sometimes he pays attention to restaurants and wealthy people. He doesn’t hear much about the Xu family, and he has never heard of Xu Yanrong’s name before. I think that person should have been in Fucheng before and only recently came back. , then nodded and replied, “Maybe it’s him.”
Luo Biao then said: “It’s his words, I don’t know much about it, I was passing by East Street some time ago, and saw all kinds of maids and servants going in and out of Xu Mansion cleaning and cleaning up. Now, hand over the business of Fucheng to my son, and return home with my wife, and come back to enjoy the happiness.”
“East Street.” Shen Xuanqing lowered his eyes and pondered, that person was not a guest of the brothel, and Luo Biao naturally didn’t know him, so he might as well go and see for himself.
“Yes, East Street, the plaque in front of the Xu Mansion has been changed to a bigger one, you will know which one it is as soon as you go.” Luo Biao was illiterate, but he knew that Shen Xuanqing knew it.
“Second brother Shen, are you leaving now?” Luo Biao tried to hold back.
Shen Xuanqing didn’t treat him politely, and said, “Tomorrow you are free, if you want to have a meal at home, come here. I will kill two fat rabbits. Let’s slice them into pieces of meat, and try another way to eat them.”
Luo Biao thought that there was nothing left and right, and it was okay to harass him in the past, so he agreed with a loud smile.
After exiting the alley, Shen Xuanqing went straight to the East Street. Sure enough, he saw the renovated Xu mansion. He was thinking about how to meet Xu Yanrong when he saw a middle-aged man in a brocade clothes on the street, with a worried expression and a face full of sadness. Ten steps up the steps of the gate of Xu Mansion, the servant and the concierge at the door kept calling for the master.
“Master Xu.” He walked quickly to the door of the Xu residence and called to stop the person. Based on his age and identity, he identified this person as Xu Yanrong. He thought that he really should come here and met him directly.
Xu Yanrong turned around and asked suspiciously when he saw him, “Who are you?”
Shen Xuanqing smiled and said, “The youngest is a hunter from Qingxi Village. I heard that the master is returning to his hometown, so I came here to ask, if the house wants to taste wild things.”
Xu Yanrong was full of worries and was rather impatient. He waved his sleeves and said, “Let’s go, let’s go, the people in my house don’t like to eat wild things.”
Shen Xuanqing stepped up two steps, although he was standing below, but he was tall, he kept his voice extremely low: “Ye Yuzhen is my late mother-in-law.”
