Chapter 1114 Fanwai (88)
A coffin was placed in the mourning hall, with white silk hanging around it, and Xie Chengjin and Lu Zhiyun, who were wearing mourning clothes, knelt in front of the coffin.
In front of them was a pot with paper money burned.
Mrs. Lin left.
Before she left, she had a son and a daughter-in-law, and someone who would take care of her in the old age, so she passed away very peacefully.
Xie Chengjin picked the best coffin for her, then asked a monk to save her, and then picked a geomantic treasure for her.I also thought about the text on the tombstone, so I wrote "the tomb of the loving mother Lin, and Xie Chengjin, the son".
A few days later, the obituary was completed.
Lu Zhiyun took the ointment and smeared it on Xie Chengjin's face, and said, "If you like this place, we will come back later."
"I want to come back, but it's not a long-term stay, but to visit my mother's grave." Xie Chengjin said, "Yun'er, I really worked hard for you during my amnesia."
"We are husband and wife. Husband and wife are one body. I will be where you are."
"Yun'er, wait for a month to guard your mother, then let's go back!"
"it is good."
A month later, Xie Chengjin and Lu Zhiyun left the things they could use at home to the people in the village.
The people in the village got something, and saw that the two were about to leave, and they were a little emotional for a while.
"Ms. Lin just left, and you are leaving too. What are your plans?"
"We plan to go back to our hometown." Lu Zhiyun said, "Thank you folks for your concern. Don't worry, we have somewhere to go."
"We still think it's like a dream." The person next to him said, "We were quite afraid of him when we first came here. The wound on his face was so scary, we thought he... these days we also I understand, the first day of junior high school is not a bad person, he has served Aunt Lin willingly for so long, and he is better than many biological sons. Aunt Lin is blessed to have such a good son in the end. We were too pedantic before."
Others agree.
There was the sound of hooves from outside.
When Xie Chengjin heard the voice, he knew that it was their people who had rushed over.
He said to the people in the village: "You can take whatever you like here, but I have to keep the house. My wife and I will come back to visit my mother's grave when we have time, and we must have a place to live."
"Don't worry, we'll look after the house for you."
Xie Chengjin thanked her, took Lu Zhiyun's hand and walked out the door.
The villagers followed him out.
When they saw so many people in black clothes standing in the yard, and there was a horse beside them, the villagers took a few steps back in surprise.
"Master, the prince has an order, we have to rush back to the capital." One of the men in Xuanyi said.
Xie Chengjin nodded: "Yes, I see."
"I've met the eldest lady." The man in Xuanyi saluted Lu Zhiyun again. "Miss, the princess told me that in order to save time, she and the prince will go first, and they will wait for you in Lijia Town."
"Understood." Lu Zhiyun said, "Let's leave right away."
Lu Zhiyun said to the village chief: "Village chief, let's go first."
"Okay... okay..." The village chief was completely stunned, and he didn't know what to say.
What prince and concubine, is he still dreaming, or how could he hear the title only in this kind of drama?
"Village chief, who are these two people? What kind of princes and concubines, are they bluffing us?"
"How do I know this?" said the village chief, "They don't have to bluff us, right? They're leaving soon, so what's the use of bluffing us? This house was originally built with money from him, and it's impossible for people in our village to covet him." house, there is really no need to tell a big lie about this matter."
"Then who are the princes and concubines? Who are they?"
The real identities of Chuyi and Lu Zhiyun have become a mystery in the village.Many years later, when the people in the village saw Lu Zhiyun and Xie Chengjin who came back to sweep the tomb, and learned their identities from the servants who served them, they sighed and annoyed for a while. This is a later story.
The husband and wife rode on the road.
Two days later, they finally arrived in Lijia Town and met Lu Yi and Mu Siyu who were enjoying the lantern festival in Lijia Town.
Then it's time to drive.
After a few months, they hurriedly arrived in the capital.
The gates of the capital city have been repaired, and they look very grand, just like the current situation.
Those who are kings are young, and those who are officials are young, so that the entire imperial city looks much younger.
"That's King Lu and Princess Lu, right?"
"It's really them. It seems that the Lu family has good things again."
"The marriage between the second lady of the Lu family and the Song family should also be put on the agenda. No matter how anxious the Lu family is, the Song family is too. The marriage between the two has been delayed again and again, and Mr. Song's eyes are almost pierced."
"Master Xiao Song really pampers Second Miss Lu in his hands. Everyone used to say that being a girl means being the eldest daughter of Lu, but now everyone says that being a girl means being the second daughter of Lu. Miss Qing'er is even more blessed than the eldest lady." big."
Xie Chengjin took Lu Zhiyun's hand and said, "These people are really idle and bored. It seems that Emperor Hui has lowered taxes in the past few years and made their lives so good that they are full of nonsense."
"They're right." Lu Zhiyun said, "Young Master Song's feelings for my sister are well known, and my sister is indeed a blessed one. However, they are wrong in saying that I am no less blessed than my sister. Husband, others You don't have to care about what you say can't affect me. To them, we sisters are just a boring topic. What kind of blessing is not a blessing? It's never something that men give. "
"You……"
At the gate of Lu Mansion.
Lu Zhiqing rushed over.
"sister……"
Lu Zhiqing flew over from outside on a horse.
Seeing Lu Zhiyun in the crowd, she jumped off her horse and rushed towards Lu Zhiyun.
Lu Zhiyun quickly caught her.
"Sister..." Lu Zhiqing hugged Lu Zhiyun tightly.
Lu Zhiqing was taller, with a well-proportioned figure.Lu Zhiqing looks more delicate, but she looks much smaller in front of Lu Zhiqing.In terms of height, Lu Zhiyun had flaws, and Lu Zhiqing took advantage of it.
At this moment, the tall and slender sister was hugging the small and dainty elder sister, and her enthusiasm almost suffocated the gentle elder sister.
When Song Hanzhi rushed over, seeing this scene, he quickly pulled Lu Zhiqing away a few steps: "My sister is about to lose her breath, please take it easy."
Xie Chengjin was talking to Lu Yi and didn't notice what was going on here.When he came over, Lu Zhiqing had already pulled Lu Zhiyun away.
"What's wrong?" Xie Chengjin saw that Lu Zhiyun's complexion was not right, and it looked much ruddy.
"It's nothing." Lu Zhiyun said, "Let's go in quickly! I'm about to fall apart after traveling all the way."
"Sister, your body isn't good enough." Lu Zhiqing put her arms around Lu Zhiyun's shoulders, with an unrestrained look. "Let me tell you, if it were me, let alone a few months' trip, even a few years would be fine. The world outside is so big and beautiful, and I want to go out and see it too. But Song Hanzhi is the worst, He was afraid that I would not come back after leaving the capital, so he insisted that I stay in the capital to wait for you, saying that you are on the way back, if I rushed to meet you at this time, I might miss it on the way. You said Did he deceive me on purpose?"
"You, just be content!" Mu Siyu walked over. "It's true that your father and I are far away from the capital, but what happened in the capital can't be hidden from our eyes. These years, if Hanzhi hadn't covered the whole story for you, with your temperament, this capital city is not enough for you to turn around."
Xing Jiashi came out with her stomach straight, and hurriedly saluted when she saw Mu Siyu and others.
Beside Xing Jiashi is a round little girl.The little girl looked at Mu Siyu curiously with a pair of eyes, which were particularly lively.
"Sister Jiuzhu, this is Princess Lu, my mother-in-law, your future mother-in-law that you have been longing to meet." Xing Jiashi introduced Liu Jiuzhu.
With rosy cheeks, Liu Jiuzhu bowed to Mu Siyu.
Compared with when she first came to the capital, she didn't even know a formal etiquette, now she looks much more educated and reasonable.It's just that those eyes are very agile, as if to say that her knowledge is just a disguise.
Mu Siyu had seen Liu Jiuzhu's portrait before.
Although the level of the portrait was very poor, and she didn't draw her charm at all, but she also learned about her life experience and what kind of girl she was from the information reported from the capital.
"It's windy here, go in and talk!"
"Yes."
Liu Jiuzhu secretly glanced at Mu Siyu from time to time.
She looked at Mu Siyu, and then at Lu Zhiyun.
"Sister Xing..." Liu Jiuzhu said in a low voice, "The eldest lady of the Lu family is really as unparalleled in the world as she is said in the legend. I never thought that there is such a good-looking person in this world before."
"Haven't you met my husband?" Xing Jiashi laughed, "I told you that they are very similar."
"However, Mr. Lu is a man, and Miss Lu is a woman. Mr. Lu is not angry but powerful. I dare not look at him carefully. His eyes are too scary. Miss Lu is gentle and virtuous, and looks easy to get along with."
Lu Yi asked about Lu Shaoyu's situation.
The housekeeper reported Lu Shaoyu's recent whereabouts, and explained that he was busy with business recently, and he didn't know if he could go back to the mansion tonight.
"I'll go and have a look." Lu Yi said to Mu Siyu, "Qi Xiao and the Supreme Emperor haven't come back, and the two of them are worried about these young people. I'll go and have a look, just to check how they are doing with their errands these days Sample."
"You have already resigned, and you are in your position to pursue other affairs, and you are not in your position, why are you still interfering in the children's affairs?" Mu Siyu said angrily, "It is understandable for you to talk about chatting with old friends But if you want to trouble your son in the cabinet, you should stay at home honestly and don’t go anywhere. If we Shaoyu don’t do well, will the people’s lives get better and better?”
Lu Yi had no choice but to say, "All right, I'll meet up with my old friend."
He doesn't know the situation in the capital, those old friends always know.What did the children do in the capital, just ask around and you will know.In this way, when he goes back to see the Supreme Emperor and Qi Xiao, he can also make a job.
Mu Siyu touched Xing Jiashi's belly: "Is it about to give birth?"
Xing Jiashi nodded shyly.
"Did you find the imperial doctor to check the pulse on time?"
"Princess, don't worry, Mrs. Lu is very nervous. The imperial doctor comes to check the pulse every day." Liu Jiuzhu said, "Princess, Jiuzhu has many questions to ask you."
"Tell me, let me see if I can help you." Mu Siyu looked at her with a smile.
"I grew up listening to your stories..." Liu Jiuzhu stared at him. "I wonder if those amazing stories are true?"
Seeing that Liu Jiuzhu was not timid at all, Xing Jiashi talked eloquently in front of Mu Siyu.Looking at Mu Siyu's attitude, it is obvious that she also likes this future young daughter-in-law very much.
Lu Yi eventually went to the cabinet.
When the minister of the cabinet saw him, he dropped the brush in his hand on the table, leaving a large pool of ink stains.
"Master Wang, what are you doing? This booklet is very important, and now you have made it like this... Lord Lu?" The minister next to him was about to reprimand the minister who had made a mistake. Seeing the latter's eyes glazed over, he followed his gaze Looking over, I saw Lu Yi, who had been away from the capital for a long time, got out, with his mouth wide open, as if he could stuff a duck egg into it.
Lu Yi picked up the case on the table, and when he saw the annotations on the booklets one after another, he recognized his son's handwriting.
Sure enough, his son was indeed much stronger than himself.
For the same booklet, if it was him, he could come up with a similar solution, but it is definitely not as simple and clear as the one he annotated.
"Where are you, Mr. Lu?"
"Master Lu has gone to the city gate." The minister next to him said, "There is a problem with the wall at the city gate. A stone slipped down yesterday and almost injured a commoner. The wall was just repaired, and it should not be Such a problem has arisen. The adults want to see if the craftsmen who repaired the wall cut corners and did not do this job well, so such a dangerous thing happened.”
"Why does such a trivial matter require him to do it himself?"
"The person in charge of this matter is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. It was only a small matter, but the Minister of the Ministry of Industry can't even do this well, and the adults are very unhappy. He went to the review this time just to see if it was an accident or because Poor construction is a man-made disaster. If it is a problem with the Ministry of Industry, then the Secretary of the Ministry of Industry must be punished. If it is an accident, he will not be wronged."
"Okay, you're all busy with your own business, so you don't need to greet me." Lu Yi walked into the room where Lu Shaoyu was on business.
He sat where Lu Shaoyu was sitting, opened those brochures and looked through them.
Lu Shaoyu's temperament is even worse than that of his real father.
Cold, this kind of cold can be highlighted from between the lines.His subordinates must be very hard, because this kind of summit is strict, only looking at the results and not the process.
Lu Yi found a brush in the drawer.
The writing brush is a little old, the hair on it has been bald, and the pen barrel is also a little old, and the characters engraved on it are almost unclear.
Seeing this brush, Lu Yi's thoughts returned to the way Lu Shaoyu held the brush for the first time.
This pen was his enlightenment gift from him.For the family at that time, this brush was the cheapest.But I didn't expect that after many years, it was still in the drawer of Lu Shaoyu's errands.
"This kid..." Lu Yi laughed, "Time flies so fast, the kid from back then can already support the sky alone."
