Spring is warm and fragrant

Chapter 77
At the end of the twelfth lunar month and the beginning of the first month, the banquets during this period can add up to more than one year.

Lu Mingyu was lucky, she went to the palace and Prince Zhuang's mansion, paid New Year's greetings to all the elders who had to pay New Year's greetings, and only got "sick" when she came back from work, and had a fair reason to stay at home and enjoy leisure.But Lu Mingyu wasn't just being lazy and pretending to be sick, she was really unwell, and Chugui, who only came in the middle of the previous life, unexpectedly arrived half a year earlier in this life.

The girl's first menstruation will be more or less uncomfortable. Lu Mingyu caught up with the cold first month again this time. The pain on the first day made her almost lose half her life. She drank the prescription prescribed by the doctor to feel better, but also Feeling exhausted, she was lazily lying in the warm blanket, and if no one disturbed her, she could sleep for a whole day.

On the third day, Lu Mingyu finally regained some energy. After breakfast, she moved to the warm couch next to the window, leaning against the pillow embroidered with peony flowers, and covered her legs with a thin quilt, and basked in the sun comfortably with her eyes closed. .Gan Lu came in with a bowl of freshly boiled longan and red date soup, and softly called her to drink.

Holding the hot bowl, Lu Mingyu picked the longan in it with a white porcelain spoon, her heart moved, she looked at Longan, the maid who was sitting on the embroidered stool and bowed her head embroidering handkerchiefs, and deliberately sighed: "Hey, when the longan is married, I can only treat the longan. The real longan misses my good longan."

Longan's ears felt hot, and she pretended not to hear, but blushed and turned around, sewing with her back to her.

Lu Mingyu tasted the sweet soup, looked at the back of the longan, feeling a little delicate.

Longan and Ganlu are both in their twenties. In their previous lives, they were married to two stewards of the appropriate age in the mother's dowry shop. They will meet with her and talk about the progress of the shop.Things have changed in this life. Last year in Yongding County, Meng Quan rescued Longan and came up. When he returned home and learned that his mother intended to arrange a marriage for Longan, Meng Quan actually came to propose marriage!

Lu Mingyu was shocked, and then got into trouble.She remembered that Longan and her husband in her previous life had a very loving and sweet life. Longan also gave birth to two white and fat eldest sons. But they are much stronger than that person.

Lu Mingyu didn't know what to do. Since it was Gui Yuan's marriage, she entrusted her mother to call the steward into the mansion to show Gui Yuan. However, the steward was still the steward, and Gui Yuan shyly chose Meng Quan. after.

"When the longan is married, I will ask my mother to arrange a good marriage for you." After drinking the jujube soup, Lu Mingyu said to Ganlu with a smile.

"Girl, take good care of yourself, don't worry about us." Ganlu said in a low voice.

Lu Mingyu smiled without saying a word.

After flipping through a few pages of travel notes, Mrs. Xiao came over with her two sons.

"Sister, are you going to have a treat at Uncle Biao's house today?" Brother Heng skillfully climbed onto the couch and asked his sister seriously.

Today, on the fifth day of the lunar new year, the Duke of Chu hosted a banquet.

Lu Mingyu smiled and shook her head, "Brother Heng, go, sister is still a little uncomfortable."

Brother Heng drooped his shoulders in disappointment, he wanted to go out with his sister.

Xiao looked at her daughter, she was also a woman, she understood her daughter's current physical condition, it was already the third day, as long as she was not tired or cold, if her daughter really wanted to be a guest, she would definitely go.If you don't want to go to the Duke's Mansion, you don't want to see Chu Sui, right?Alas, the daughter can be lazy, but the relationship between the Lu family and the Chu family has to be maintained, and their husband and wife are inevitable.

After sitting with their daughter for a while, it was almost noon when Lu Rong and Xiao's couple set off with their two sons and the Lu family.

The Duke of Chu's mansion, Chu Xing and Chu Sui were waiting in front of the guests. Knowing that the members of the Lu family were coming, the two brothers looked at each other and greeted them out together.Going around the screen wall and facing the Lu family's old and young people, Chu Sui first looked at Sanfang, but he didn't see Xin Xinnian's figure. Looking elsewhere, he only saw two twelve or thirteen-year-old girls, They are all in the second room.

Chu Sui couldn't hide his disappointment. He didn't see her when he went out for a few days. I heard that she was ill. Could it be that he was very ill?
Over there, Chu Xing met with Lu Zhan and his wife first, and when it was Lu Rong's turn, he logically looked behind Lu Rong, but unexpectedly, he didn't see Lu Mingyu either.

"Uncle Biao, Brother Heng wishes you a New Year greeting, I wish you a happy New Year." Brother Heng likes Uncle Biao, and also likes New Year greetings, he looked up and said happily.Brother Nian followed suit, and the younger brothers looked at Chu Xing with bright eyes.Chu Xing smiled, and Wei Teng next to him promptly handed over two red seals, with the same auspicious patterns on the red paper, Chu Xing took them and gave one to each of Heng and Er.

Brother Heng and Brother Nian smiled happily, and cast their big eyes on Chu Sui.

It was rare for two "brother-in-laws" to see him, even if it was for the New Year's money, Chu Sui was very happy, and sent one to each of them.After posting, Chu Sui looked at Lu Rong and his wife anxiously.Lu Rong was talking to Chu Xing, as if he didn't pay attention to this, Xiao Shi and Mrs. Lu talked softly...

Chu Sui understood that Lu Rong and his wife still didn't want to see him, but he felt ashamed and couldn't complain.For the present plan, the only way is to coax Lu Mingyu well first, and then ask Lu Mingyu to intercede in front of the elders.

"Sister, this is the New Year's money I received today." After returning from being a guest, Brother Heng excitedly ran to his sister with his day's gain and showed off to her, "This is from Mrs. Tai, this is from Uncle Biao It was given by my second cousin, my uncle and grandpa also went there, and gave me two more ingots, and told me to take good care of my sister..."

The seven-year-old boy sits cross-legged in front of his sister, showing them one by one, and has a pretty good memory.

Lu Mingyu was too old to be excited about New Year's money, but she still cooperated with her younger brother's interest, and she opened it to have a look when the younger brother took it out, and the third one she picked up was Chu Xingfa's Feng Hong.The gold-painted red paper seal seemed to be the same as the others, but thinking of this red seal once being held by Chu Xing, Lu Mingyu felt some indescribable throbbing in her heart.

A gentleman, this is Lu Mingyu's evaluation of Chu Xing.She used to think that a gentleman should be a scholar like her father or Chu Sui. After she really understood Chu Xing's behavior, Lu Mingyu suddenly discovered that a man who seems gentle and gentle as jade may not be a gentleman. A true gentleman's heart.

Open the red seal, pour it into the palm of your hand, and a golden locket fell out, engraved with "Peace and Ruyi".

It was a very common piece of gold locket, Lu Mingyu turned around, but greed flashed across her eyes, she wanted to exchange it with her younger brother, but in the end she put the gold locket into Feng Hong and gave it back to her brother.A gentleman is a gentleman, and because of admiration for Chu Xing, do you even feel that the golden scorpion he gave is different?And it’s not all the tackiest gold.

Lu Mingyu continued to stay at home on the sixth day of the lunar new year, and things were almost done in the seventh month of the new year. By the eighth day of the eighth day, Lu Mingyu could no longer be lazy, because today was a treat at home, and the Zhu family sent someone to call for her granddaughter early in the morning.

"Grandmother, what's the rush?" On the happy day of the banquet, Lu Mingyu wore a pair of peach-pink embroidered begonia flower gowns. After a few days of careful conditioning, the little girl's face was ruddy, and she seemed to have gained a little weight. Pink toot is painful.Mrs. Zhu liked it, took her granddaughter's little hand, and taught softly: "Don't go anywhere today, just sit next to grandma. You haven't been a guest these few days, so many wives and wives haven't paid New Year's greetings yet."

Hmph, every time she went to a house, she would send out at least five or six golden scorpions, and at least a dozen more. Zhu felt that she was losing money and had to ask her granddaughter to help her earn some money back. Even if she made money, it would be her granddaughter's.

Lu Mingyu lowered her head and smiled, her grandmother at this time in her previous life didn't care about these little money for a long time, now that her grandmother and grandfather are like glue, her grandmother is still as "simple" as before.

"Okay, I'll listen to my grandmother." Lu Mingyu is a filial child who is willing to make her grandmother happy. She can imagine her smiling face when she tapped with her grandmother how much money she received in the afternoon.

As time passed, guests came to the door one after another.

The people from Duke Chu's mansion came early, and Lu Mingyu sat under her mother, and when she saw Mrs. Tai who was leading the way, she followed her mother and stood up.The other juniors of the Lu family paid New Year's greetings to the elders of the Chu family on the fifth day of the lunar new year, so only Lu Mingyu, who was absent due to illness, needed to make up for the gift.

"A Nuan pays homage to Madam Tai in her old age. May Madam Tai be as blessed as the East China Sea and everything goes well."

"Get up, get up, Ah Nuan really looks better the longer she grows." Mrs. Tai supported Lu Mingyu's arm, and asked lovingly: "I heard that Ah Nuan was not feeling well a few days ago, how is she doing now?"

Lu Mingyu nodded shyly.The little girl was ill for a few days, and Mrs. Tai probably guessed what was going on, so far she saw Lu Mingyu as a big girl who was ready to marry, and gave her a generous seal of approval.Lu Mingyu expressed his thanks generously, and then went to pay New Year's greetings to Mrs. Chu, followed by Chu Xing.

The first month is a festive month, and Chu Xing couldn't avoid it. Wearing a dark blue robe embroidered with cloud patterns, Lu Mingyu didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at the man, and bowed to Chu Xing's chest, "May my uncle have a happy New Year and be promoted every step of the way."

There was no change on Chu Xing's face, and he handed her a red seal as usual, and said a few words of encouragement.

Lu Mingyu accepted Feng Hong, and shifted her eyes to Chu Sui. Because there were many guests in the Nuan Pavilion, she also bowed to Chu Sui, and her tone was a little lighter for the sake of looking good.Chu Sui knew that the little girl was still annoyed by him, so he didn't say much, and handed over a red seal with a smile, "This is my uncle's first year after receiving his salary, no matter how big or small, anyone who pays me New Year's greetings will have a seal." red."

As soon as this remark came out, all the female relatives in the room laughed, Chu Suifeng is suave and suave, and has always been very popular with women.

Lu Mingyu tugged at the corner of her mouth, resisting the urge to turn around and leave, took Feng Hong, smiled with sister Chu Ying, and retreated to her mother.

The Chu Xing brothers came here mainly to pay respects to Mrs. Zhu. They met each other and went to the front yard without sitting down.

Chu Sui left, without his seemingly invisible peeping, Lu Mingyu was much more at ease, and when she went to clean the room, she curiously took out the Feng Hong that Chu Xing gave her.The shape of the lucky golden zipper given by the elders is nothing more than that. Why does the golden zipper given by Chu Xing seem a bit weird to pinch?

Puzzled in her heart, Lu Mingyu lowered her head to open the seal, and when she saw clearly what was inside, she was stunned.

This, is this really sent by Chu Xing?
