When Shanshan woke up, he felt refreshed and refreshed.
"Last night, the young master didn't cry or make trouble, which surprised me." The wet nurse eavesdropped outside the door several times during the night, but she never heard a cry.
Silently opened the door and took a few glances.
The siblings slept very deeply and did not make any noise at all.
“Yes, Master Shanshan has been crying every night since he was born.” Moreover, he screamed with a miserable voice, and even calling the imperial doctor did not help.
Lu Chaochao sat up sleepily with two curly hairs on his forehead.
Hand out his hand to the nanny in a kind and obedient manner.
“Oh, our young master is going to drink milk. He is so good, I wish he could be so good every day.”
"Princess, breakfast has been prepared in the house, and my servants are waiting for you."
Lu Chaochao just woke up and his speech was still a little unclear.
“Where’s the mother?”
The maid covered her mouth and snickered: "Madam has been waiting in front of the door for a long time. She will give the results of the palace examination today."
When Lu Chaochao heard this, his mind instantly cleared.
“Wear a red dress for me, something more festive.” Today is a good day for the third brother.
As soon as I finished speaking, I saw magpies chirping outside the window.
"Hey, the magpie brings good news. It's a good day." As soon as the little maid outside the door finished speaking, she heard the sound of knocking outside the door.
“Oh, it’s the drum sound of the Annunciation.”
Lu Chaochao hurriedly ran towards the gate before he could finish his breakfast.
Sure enough, my mother was wiping away tears excitedly, and my father was ordering someone to bring the wedding money to the father-in-law who announced the good news.
This is the number one scholar appointed by His Majesty, and the father-in-law came to announce the good news in person.
The father-in-law saw the princess running towards her with small steps and did not dare to accept her. But General Rong said: "I am happy because of the number one scholar."
The father-in-law accepted it respectfully, but he couldn’t spend the money.
To be passed down from generation to generation.
He adopted several orphans as adopted sons and daughters, who will also have descendants in the future.
Xu Shiyun said with red eyes: "Go and prepare some incense wax paper money, and go to the ancestral hall of Zhongyong Marquis Mansion to burn incense sticks. To comfort our ancestors."
Dengzhi raised his lips slightly and said, "Madam, what kind of good news can you bring to the Lu family?"
She really has no good impression of Zhongyong Houfu.
Rong Che grinned secretly: "You don't understand my wife's thoughts."
“What an honor it is to be number one in one subject and two in one subject? That’s the kind of treatment you get only when the smoke comes out of your ancestral grave.”
"The Zhongyong Hou Mansion has pushed this great opportunity out of the door, so of course I have to report the good news." Rong Che had already prepared the scented wax paper money and took Yun Niang out.
Dengzhi chuckled.
“This is not a happy news, I’m afraid the ancestors of the Lu family will jump up underneath.” Chun Chun went to take revenge.
Dengzhi likes to do this the most, but she cannot leave the house, so she has to stay and take charge of the overall situation.
I had to watch helplessly as they burned paper.
Several descendants of the Lu family followed Xu Shiyun.
I don’t know when the children have grown up and can protect their mother. He is no longer in a state of despair when he was kicked out of his home.
Lu Chaochao tilted his head and thought for a while, then secretly stood in the corner. He kneaded the secrets with his little hands and said in a low voice: "The Great Emperor Fengdu, please invite me, the elder of the Lu family, to come to the underworld to have a talk."
She remembered that the old lady and Lu Yuanze were still being tortured on the 18th floor.
Excuse me, she wants to open the back door.
Zhongyong Hou's Mansion was completely burned by a fire by Lu Yuanze, but fortunately the ancestral hall was far away and avoided the disaster.
At this moment, the spider webs are crisscrossed, and the maids and servants are clearing the way ahead.
The ground was already covered with moss, and everywhere was charred by the fire. There was still a bit of rotten smell after being washed by the rain. The grass on the courtyard wall was already up to its waist, and everyone barely walked through the path to the ancestral hall.
Although the ancestral hall has not been burned down, it has been exposed to wind and sun for several years and no one has taken care of it. The solemn ancestral hall at that time has fallen into extremely poor condition.
The door is crumbling and covered with spider webs.
Lu Chaochao blinked and looked towards a gloomy place in the corner.
As expected, there was an old lady with disheveled hair standing in the ancestral hall, as well as Lu Yuanze with a look of disbelief on his face. Only the two figures were transparent, as if they were weak enough to be blown away by the wind.
The old lady looked at everything familiar crazily. She cried and laughed and touched around in the ancestral hall.
Just the sunlight leaking from the hole in the roof made her wail in pain and hide in the corner again.
'I'm back? Have I returned to the Hou Mansion? ’
‘This is my home, this is our home, Yuanze…’ The old lady is on the eighteenth floor of the underworld, being tortured day after day. In her dreams, she wanted to go back to where she started, to the Hou Mansion.
Be her a happy old lady, a filial and well-behaved grandson, and an honest and honest daughter-in-law who serves her wholeheartedly.
‘Is the house already in such a state of ruin? ’ Lu Yuanze murmured in a low voice, looking at the ancestral tablets all over the ground, tears falling heavily.
Suddenly, there was a noise outside the door.
With a squeak, the cobwebs were knocked away, and the maids and slaves filed in.
The old lady screamed, "It's Yun Niang, I knew it was Yun Niang!" Yun Niang has always been a filial child. When my feet hurt in winter, she used her body to warm my feet. ’
‘My body ached, so she stayed up all night giving me a massage. ’
‘I wanted to eat steamed buns at night, but she got up and made them herself despite the hard work. ’
Lu Yuanze said quietly: 'Then why do you want to rub her? ’
The old lady’s voice stopped suddenly.
After a long while, he said: ‘You don’t love her either. ’
The two of them fell silent suddenly.
They watched helplessly as the tall and serious man carefully helped Yun Niang through the door. After not seeing each other for several years, Yun Niang did not show any sign of her age. Instead, she was younger than before, with a feeling of happiness that was about to overflow.
“It’s dirty here, don’t get your skirt dirty.” Rong Che felt heartbroken when he saw the dust on her clothes.
“How can you be so squeamish?” Yun Niang said with an angry smile.
“The Hou Mansion, which was so prominent back then, has now lost all its households, and even its inheritance has been cut off.” Dengzhi couldn’t help but feel a little sad. Who would have thought that the Hou Mansion would be in such a state of decline.
In the corner, the old lady’s face was filled with regret.
The prince's family has lost its heirs and the family has been exterminated.
Hahahaha, the Lu family was defeated by them.
Lu Yuanze looked at Yun Niang and the children beside her.
"Although we have been expelled from the family tree and are not counted as heirs of the Lu family, we still have to have a baby and raise some incense sticks. Let them see that we can still live without the Marquis Mansion." Yun Niang's voice was light and hidden. A bit show off.
“The eldest son who was lame back then is now in charge of the Southern Kingdom.”
“Zheng Yue, a dandy at that time, is now guarding the frontier and has become a general of the frontier.”
“The most stupid Yuanxiao guy back then got the top prize today. He became the second top pick in our family…”
“Oh, they are all Sanyuanjidi.”
“There is also Chaochao, so of course there is no need to say more. As long as she is here, no one from the three realms dares to invade. Now, in our family, who doesn’t respect her? It’s a pity that Zhongyonghou Mansion is not blessed.”
“I won the first prize in the Lantern Festival today, and I’m here to tell you the good news. I’m very happy…”
Rong Che's head popped up from behind: "I'm lucky, I'm lucky. Let's go to Rong's house later to burn incense, and we'll pick up a few promising children for nothing."
Lu Yuanze’s eyes shed lines of blood and tears.
They are like clowns hiding in the dark, peeping at Yun Niang's happiness.
Peeping at the happiness that originally belonged to them. (End of chapter)
