Chapter 318 Brazen
Chapter 4
She woke up at one o'clock the next day, probably around seven o'clock. She slept for eight or nine hours, and she hadn't had a full night's sleep in a long time. She was a very hard-working person in later generations.
, sleeping time is usually compressed to the minimum level of normal needs, otherwise it would not be possible to carve out a smooth path in their industry.
As soon as she got up, Bingmo led the maids and filed in carrying toiletries.
The washing method here uses willow branches dipped in green salt, which Lu Songli was not used to.
Bing Mo was waiting at the side. Seeing that her face was a little rosy today because she had slept well, her worried heart was finally relieved.
Lu Songli stared at herself in the bronze mirror. She originally had a standard oval face, with well-proportioned facial features and soft facial lines. She had a light complexion with extremely beautiful bones and a cold and gentle temperament.
She quite likes her appearance. Her pale facial features don't show any sharpness, which makes people feel less aggressive. She has a proactive personality, so she doesn't need to have a very aggressive appearance, such as thick skin.
Her facial appearance is not good for her career and will make her opponents of the same sex subconsciously wary of her.
The face in the mirror in front of her was roughly similar to her original appearance, except that her face was paler and lacked blood color. But her hair was thicker. Maybe she was too worried about her hair falling out in later life.
Breakfast consisted of meatloaf and meat soup, a bowl of thick and smooth millet porridge, and a cup of milk. From Lu Songli's memory, this kind of breakfast was very exquisite. Later generations of exquisite foods such as steamed buns, dumplings, and tofu soup, etc.
No. The Dali Dynasty was close to the Later Han Dynasty, and its food level and productivity development were comparable to those of the Wei, Jin, and early Sui Dynasties. It was considered a parallel space.
For breakfast, Lu Songli only ate half a piece of meat pie, half a bowl of meat soup, and only drank two sips of milk. The taste was too tangy to drink. She finished all the millet porridge. She knew that the remaining food would be eaten by the maids in the yard.
If you share the food, it will not be wasted.
After breakfast, she walked around the yard to eat.
In the early morning of October, the wind is cool and the sun is warm. There are servants in the Xiaofeng courtyard cleaning the yellowing and falling leaves. The sun shines on the body, making it warm but not burning.
The Lu family's quadrangle with gardens on four sides was a gift from the emperor. Her parents lived in the main courtyard, and her two brothers chose the northwest courtyard, leaving the Xiaofeng courtyard in the northeast with the best scenery and lighting for her.
.
Her courtyard is quite large, and just the neatly maintained yard in front of her, planted with various flowers and plants, is enough to make people forget to leave. Even the townhouse she bought with a huge sum of money is not as good as hers.
A courtyard, not to mention that their entire Lu family's house is located in Chang'an, where land is extremely valuable. Thinking of this, she felt refreshed. She is the winner in life. In comparison, other troubles are just small cases.
.
Lu Songli had just stretched her muscles when someone came from the main courtyard to say that Mrs. Xie's family came to visit her with gifts. Xie Zhan also came with her. Her father and mother asked her to go to the front yard.
Okay, let's get going. There is no need to struggle. Life is endless and struggle is endless.
In the flower hall where the Lu family entertained guests, since it was not a big day, Lu Desheng did not have to go to the morning court. The three members of the Lu family received Xie's mother and son together.
After the two parties sat down, taking advantage of the morning light, Lu Songli looked at Xie Zhanzai carefully from beginning to end. When she just walked in last night, she probably had water in her eyes from tossing in the water for a long time.
, everything I see is blurry, and with the poor lighting last night, everything I see is blurry.
Xie Zhan's appearance is undoubtedly handsome, with plump heavenly eyes, sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, deep and spiritual eyes, a high bridge of nose, and a smooth mandible line like a magic sword and a ghost axe. The sharp edges and corners are unforgettable. In addition, he has a long and tall figure.
His body appearance may be due to his noble birth. As the saying goes, the Qi of moving nourishes the body. There is an aura of nobility in his body. When he stands with a fan, he looks like a humble gentleman with a bright and graceful scenery.
She thought to herself, no wonder the girls of the right age in the capital flocked to him. If the original owner had not been engaged to him, the Xie family's threshold would have been broken by the matchmaker in Beijing. Even if he had an engagement, he is still
He is the young man that girls in Chang'an City most want to marry.
After the servants served tea, Mrs. Xie took Lu Songli's little hand and took care of her body first, and then said in a pitiful tone, "I've heard about Ting Wan, who would have thought that something like that would happen.
Unexpected. Ah Li suffered a lot yesterday."
Lu Songli lowered her head slightly, as obedient as the original owner, but she silently said in her heart that this was destined to happen.
"Alas! The ones most affected by this matter are the daughter of the Zhao family and Xiaoli. I don't know some talkative woman spread the story yesterday, and the words were very unpleasant. When the daughter of the Zhao family found out, she couldn't stop crying at home.
"Myself, Mrs. Zhao came to Xie's house early in the morning to ask us to come up with ideas. How can we have any ideas?"
Lu Songli felt funny in her heart. I'm afraid her harsh words were mostly directed at Zhao Yutan. There shouldn't be as many people talking about her as herself.
None of the three members of the Lu family answered. But they all heard that there was something in Mrs. Xie's words, as if she was testing something.
The three people from the Lu family didn't talk to each other, and Mrs. Xie was a little embarrassed.
"If the Zhao family doesn't look to the Qin family for advice, why should they look to your Xie family for advice?" Lu Desheng asked, neither soft nor hard.
Mrs. Lu: "Yes, what does the Zhao family mean?"
Mrs. Xie: "This - A-Zhan saved the eldest daughter of the Zhao family like that last night. The Zhao family wanted A-Zhan to marry her to quell the rumors."
Lu Songli clicked her tongue, was the Zhao family too impatient? She couldn't believe how powerful this rumor could be after just one night, and now it finally showed its tail, right?
Mrs. Lu said bluntly, "No, the Zhao family is too shameless, isn't it? Xie Zhan saved her, why did she still rely on him?"
Lu Desheng asked, "Then what are your Xie family's plans?"
The Xie family wanted to be polite and said vaguely, "This matter mainly depends on your woman's side. The girl's reputation is important. You must know that if we don't handle it well, Mrs. Zhao and Ah Li will always be talked about in the future."
See what he said, "So Madam Yi, do you mean that your Xie family doesn't mind what happened last night at all?"
Mrs. Xie looked embarrassed, "There is a reason for this, and I also know that Ah Li is innocent."
Lu Desheng and his wife calmed down after hearing this. Isn't there a reason for the incident? What happened to some physical contact when rescuing people? It's not like they hugged each other for no reason. And his Ah Li is indeed innocent!
Jiang: "As long as the Xie family doesn't mind what happened last night. The marriage between our two families remains unchanged. If the Zhao family wants to rely on us, then just do it small!"
Lu Songli thought it was quite ridiculous. Just because of the physical contact caused by going into the water to save people, the marriage could have such big twists and turns? But thinking about the scripts and plays she had heard before, a rich girl fell into the water and was saved by a beggar, or
If she admitted to biting someone, she would have to go to the temple to practice. She couldn't help complaining.
Mrs. Jiang's words made Madam Xie choke up, and then she changed her tone, "But considering the possible long-term impact of this matter, I think our family still needs to be cautious about their marriages."
"Mrs. Xie, you are so powerful. You can also be the master of the Zhao family and the Qin family." Lu Desheng said in a strange manner. He was holding his breath in his heart. If he hadn't been worried about his daughter, he would have kicked him out long ago.
Lu Songli smiled sullenly, her father was an onmyoji.
"That's right, you just say you do mind when you obviously mind, but I can't bear to be a bitch and still build a memorial arch!" Mrs. Lu also hit a straight ball.
Damn, her parents are so powerful in battle.
The straightforward words of the Lu family made Mrs. Xie extremely embarrassed.
Xie Zhan, who had been silent until now, finally spoke, "Uncle and aunt, this matter involves more than just our Xie and Lu family. What our Xie family means is that the four families will find an opportunity to sit down and talk some other day to minimize the impact.
This matter has been resolved. What do you think?"
