Lu Yun took a deep breath and calmed down the coldness on his face little by little, but his voice was filled with a little ice slag, which was a bit more indifferent than the kindness and diligence he had just now.
He was silent for a while and did not refute Gu Xiang's words.
He did have a heart for a long time ago.
He didn't intend to deny that if a man lived to his age, how could he have no women around him?
Sisi grew up with him and was a childhood sweetheart. When he got to know him, he regarded Sisi as his favorite, and naturally he had thought of marrying her.
I was young at that time, and even made many plans for it.
As a man, he naturally dreamed of being a husband and wife with his beloved woman and being in harmony with his whole life. He was in poor health and could not be a clan wife of the Lu family.
He called himself Xianyun Jushi, and Xianyun Yehe was used to Xianyun and Yehe. He never admired fame and wealth, but he was not a fool. Now the Lu family is a half-sinked ship. If the ship was completely sunk, he would have to be involved in the storm and terrifying waves. How could he have the leisure time he has now?
For the sake of the Lu family, Lu Yun could not marry a miserable orphan girl with a miserable life. The wife he married was just a familiar and unfamiliar lady in the capital.
Lu Yun frowned, but, this Gu Xiang is really a good candidate? He has seen this person's ability. As the mistress in the family, she must have done a good job, but for Sisi, she may not be a mistress who is easy to get along with.
But now he can't choose.
It seems that I can only be careful to suppress it later and don’t let her cause a big disaster.
Lu Yun sighed in his heart, but a gentle smile appeared on his face: "So the little lady is concerned about this? Please rest assured that Lu is not the one who favors concubines and kills his wife. Even if there is such a woman, she will not pose a threat to you..."
"I'm disgusted."
Gu Xiang exhaled, looked down at the food on the table, and turned to Qiu Li, "I will only prepare... a bowl of wontons for this little lady, with a stack of chili sauce, and a hand-grabbed pancake, two eggs on the hand-grabbed pancake, and a piece of roast beef, and coated with chili sauce and black pepper sauce."
"As for Mr. Lu, I guess he is not hungry, so don't let our meal harm him in his own way."
Gu Xiang was so dirty that he was eating for Lu Jiulang.
Qiu Li responded quickly.
Turning around and looking at Lu Jiulang's face that was shining brightly in the night light, Gu Xiang felt that if he didn't say a few words, he would have no idea.
Originally, these things had nothing to do with her. In such an era, Lu Jiulang's ideas did not require criticism that would be exaggerated. I don't know how many young men raised a beautiful concubine at home, and even had several concubines, but they could still be good sons-in-laws in their hearts.
Only when Lu Jiu provoked Gu Xiang, she wanted to say a few words.
"I think Mr. Lu and that young lady must have had a promise to have a long-term appointment, and also promised to love her, respect her, and marry her openly."
Lu Yun had no expression on his face.
"Mr. Lu has never had the imperial examination, but he is still a scholar. He has always read the Analects of Confucius. 'Words are loyal and trustworthy, and he is respectful, even if he is a barbarian country, he will do it. If he is not loyal and trustworthy, and he is not respectful, even if he is in the state, how can he do this?' How can this be explained?"
Gu Xiang sneered: "Yes, Mr. Lu naturally doesn't have to be honest with a woman, and no one asks you to be honest with a woman, right?"
Lu Yun was stunned, and suddenly felt a little chilling in his body, as if something was blocking his chest, his breath was not smooth, and he felt so stuffy.
Closed his eyes and Lu Yun sneered: "Gu Xiang, I am saving you. You are holding a hot potato in your hand and just want to throw it away. You may not have a place to throw it away now."
Gu Xiang immediately understood: "I said that Mr. Lu's sudden visit late at night was indeed for the Fan family and Xue Shan."
It was late at night and it was a rainy night again.
Except for the drizzle of rain outside the door, it was quiet.
Xueying came over and put her hand on Gu Xiang's shoulders, pinched her shoulders seriously, and didn't look out the door.
Gu Xiang smiled at Lu Yun and said, "Looking at Mr. Lu's appearance, I seem to want to climb a high place and look far away, and be a leading figure."
"You have looked out a dozen times since you just now. I used to watch...playbooks, listen to stories from elders, and the protagonists who have the demeanor of a general in the story are different from you. They have to be much more calm."
"If Mr. Lu really wants to succeed, he should start by changing his temperament."
Lu Yun was blocked and couldn't speak for a while, but he was not angry for a long time. What could he be angry with a dying person? He just shook his head and sighed: "Miss Gu, Lu actually has no malicious intentions towards you. My proposal is still valid so far. As long as you agree, we are our own people. Then the things in your hands and the information you have are nothing. If you are willing to burn them in one fire, they will burn them cleanly. If you don't want to mention them again, we will pretend that they don't exist, so why not?"
Gu Xiang blinked: "Young Master Lu has a very clear mind. I really have nothing to say. After a while, Young Master Lu was ordered to come and give him a gift first and then a soldier. Is this proposal of marriage actually a gift to me?"
Lu Jiulang smiled and said, "You and I have a marriage contract. If you can achieve good things, will it be beneficial to you and me. If I have such a proposal, I naturally value the talent of the little lady."
He said as he got up, reached out and put the cloak on the chair aside. He turned to look at Shen Mengwei. Just as he was about to speak, he saw that Shen Mengwei's eyes were slightly red, but he was holding a bowl of wontons and grabbing pancakes with his hands. The bright red chili sauce in the wontons was of the color, the taste was strong, and it was very appetizing.
Shen Mengwei actually eats spicy food?
He even felt that she was not a human being during the past few days of receiving Shen Mengwei. What she ate and drank during meals was like eating a little bit with a measuring cup.
None of these has anything to do with Lu Yun, "Madam Shen, you know what to do."
He said something to Shen Mengwei, then smiled at Gu Xiang: "The little lady's answer?"
Gu Xiang laughed: "Take me a message back and give me a gift next time. Even if I give me a bag of noodles, I can eat it at least. It is better than your Lu Yun's gift, at least it won't be disgusting."
Lu Yun was still not angry, and just shook his head and sighed: "There is nothing I can do."
Others stood behind Shen Mengwei, gently shook the folding fan in his hand, with a compassionate expression: "I will recite the mantra of rebirth for my little lady three times to help you reach the Pure Land soon."
As he said that, he landed his eyes on the side and waved his hand calmly.
The surroundings are quiet.
Lu Yun: “…”
He waved his hand again.
The surroundings are still quiet, and no sound can be heard except for the sound of rain.
Gu Xiang pointed to the stage next to him: "The location is high, Mr. Lu might as well go up and wave his hand. Maybe it's raining too heavily. Today, this 'soldier' ​​is a little blind and can't see you?"
