Chapter 116: return gift

"Haitang, it's so cold, why don't you rest at home?"

Yangchun Street is some distance away from Li Haitang's house. Could it be that he came to Antique Street to shop for treasures?

"Go to Lu's house."

Li Haitang spread her hands, with ropes wrapped around her hands. These were all gifts she had prepared. The origin of it was also explained to Zhang Ruyi.

"Unexpectedly, that stunned young man is not bad."

Zhang Ruyi blinked. Such a good excuse must be used. She ate and drank at Lu's house yesterday, and she went this time to return the gift!

"Let's go, let's go together."

What to buy in return? The ignorant Miss Zhang was very distressed, and finally, under Li Haitang's advice, she bought two new bolts of fabric, and the two-person team became four people, and they came to the door in a mighty manner.

In the courtyard of Lu's house, Lu's mother was chattering. Zhang Ruyi left in a hurry yesterday. She forgot to ask for the address, and now she was annoyed, "Mother is getting old, and her memory is not good. If you talk about you, why don't you say something! "

It's hard to tolerate a girl who suits her heart, if she doesn't start early, she will become someone else's family again. Although his son is a scholar, Lu's mother is not shy at all.

"Mother, this is all fate."

Lu Yuanqing held back dryly, thinking of the farce yesterday, he almost vomited blood.

Those three should stop coming, they ate, drank and took food when they came to his house, and even fooled his mother, no, from morning to now, they kept their mouths open and closed, and kept their mouths shut for three words about his marriage.

Lu Yuanqing was very distressed. He is a filial person, so he couldn't say anything, but he had to comfort his mother, "We are destined to meet from a thousand miles away."

"There is no chance to meet each other face to face."

Zhang Ruyi answered, she knew the way, and came to the door with a gift.

Reaching out to not hit the smiling face, Lu Yuanqing staggered, his eyes widened. When he saw Li Jinhu, he instantly understood something.

"Mother, this is my younger brother, Li Jinhu."

Li Haitang took the initiative to explain to Lu's mother. When Lu's mother heard it, hey, it's a coincidence. I was worried that I couldn't find anyone, so I got in touch.

"It's a little effort, and you can give me something, you're welcome!"

Mother Lu welcomed them in, and she instructed Lu Yuanqing to do the work early in the morning, cleaning up the house inside and out, so that it was spotless.

She just thought that if a girl came to the house, the house would be in a mess and it would be easy to make people laugh.

When I was young, I did a lot of embroidery work, and Lu's mother's eyes were not very good. Some corners of the house were not clean. She didn't clean it, but she couldn't see clearly.

"It should be, and it's not expensive, it's all homemade food."

Li Haitang unwrapped the package and opened a pack of melon seeds. The melon seeds were new, walnut-flavored, the more delicious they tasted, the price was not expensive, and it was a good gift as a gift.

"Haitang, if you have nothing to do, take your little sister and talk with Madam."

Lu's mother was afraid that Zhang Ruyi's face would be tender. She saw that Li Haitang was married, and thought there was nothing to be jealous of, so she mentioned it.

"Okay, let Brother Lu take care of our Jinhu."

Seeing the commotion at home, Lu Yuanqing felt a little headache. A woman is a duck, and now a group of them came. He couldn't study at ease, so he had to find an excuse to go out for a walk.

"A Yuan, go to the market and buy some live crucian carp. It's very cold. Let's make some soup."

Lu's mother continued to make her son work. Li Jinhu felt that he had nothing to say to a group of women, so he offered to follow along and go to the bookstore by the way.

"Go."

Li Haitang handed the purse to his younger brother, and whispered proudly, "Buy whatever you like, it's not bad for money!"

As soon as Lu Yuanqing left, Lu's mother changed her tone. During the conversation, she expressed that she liked Zhang Ruyi very much, and said that it was too expensive for her to buy cloth, and it was not easy to live under her stepmother.

"Yep."

This is the first time someone thinks so much about Zhang Ruyi, her mother is still alive, right? For no reason, Zhang Ruyi felt so sad that she almost shed tears.

She also wants to be like the little ladies in other families, someone loves her, someone loves her, and someone thinks for herself, but without her mother, she always feels that there is something between her and her father, so she has to be thick-skinned and think for herself.

"Mother, brother Lu is not yet married, he said that day..."

Zhang Ruyi mentioned Lu Yuanqing's oath and wanted to hear Lu's mother's opinion. Some things are easy to say, but hard to do.

"He was right."

Lu's mother smiled openly. She was a small family and wanted to live a peaceful life. She used to do embroidery work for big families, and she saw too many battles in the back house.

Those women framed each other for nothing more than money and power. Some of them had poor means, killed two people, and some were thrown into random graves.

There are too many women, which is the source of restlessness in the house.

"that…"

Zhang Ruyi paused, and then said something surprising. The room was not hot, and the blue clothes were sweating all over. She gave Li Haitang a wink, and the two wanted to stop them, but it was too late.

"Ma'am, I want to marry Brother Lu."

Zhang Ruyi said it bluntly. Since she was a child, no one taught her what it means to be reserved, the daughter of an official family, she can directly say what she wants, and express her thoughts.

In a word, Zhang Ruyi was confused by going around.

It's over, it's over.

Lan Yi seemed to have been drained of all her strength, and was unable to recover from a setback. If the master knew about this, would she still have her life?

In fact, Lan Yi didn't need to be so nervous, Zhang Zheng knew that it was the unlucky Li Haitang who was responsible.

After a long time, Li Haitang remembered that there was a reason for his unlucky luck. He went to Baita Temple to burn incense and didn't ask for a talisman!

"Ruyi, you..."

Lu's mother didn't dislike Zhang Ruyi's promise of marriage to herself at all, but felt sorry for her in her heart. She was sixteen and hadn't been engaged yet, so her stepmother must have hindered it. Such a family would agree to her family's marriage proposal?

Her son is a scholar, so she felt a little unworthy, and she was afraid that Lu Yuanqing would not be good enough for Zhang Ruyi.

"Miss…"

Lan Yi couldn't help shouting, she and Lu's mother revealed that she was Zhang Ruyi's maid. As soon as I connected to my lady, I rolled my eyes several times.

Households with maids must have a good life, and mother Lu is even more embarrassed, of course she is very fond of it!

Lu Yuanqing didn't know that when he went out, his marriage was almost settled. After he learned about it later, he regretted it very much. Why did he want to go out so hard?

"You guys talk, I'll go out to get some fresh air."

Li Haitang couldn't get involved in the marriage, so she withdrew and wanted to go to Antique Street.

She doesn't have that vision for identifying antiques, she just wants to join in the fun and show that she has good taste.

"Haitang, hurry up!"

Uncle Chen drove the carriage and ran wildly on the street. He saw Li Jinhu, got the address, and hurried over to pick up Li Haitang.

"Second Uncle Chen, why are you in such a hurry?"

Seeing that his forehead was covered with sweat, Li Haitang wondered, "Could it be that something happened at home?"

"Someone is here, that Sun Tietou!"

Second Uncle Chen couldn't explain clearly for a while, he greeted Li Haitang to get on the carriage, and then he stumbled to express it on the road.

Sun Tietou's wife is pregnant, and she is pregnant in October, and the expected date of delivery has passed, and there has been no movement for a long time. It was finally activated last night, but the baby was not born overnight. The midwife said that seeing the baby's feet, it was difficult to deliver, and both adults and children were in danger.
