Qin Ling'er sat there for a long time. Qingling Lufu didn't even show any intention of leaving, nor did she show any sign of opening her mouth.
"I've been doing this for a long time since I came back. I'll go back and change into loose clothes first and come back later." Qin Ling'er stood up and left.
It hasn't rained in a while, and it was too hot and muggy in the afternoon.
Lu Fenghe became agitated.
"Hurry up and fan yourself with ice, and get some bowls of water lilies. It's too dry."
Naturally, these little things don't require a few first-class maids.
Cuizhi moved a stool and sat next to the ice mirror, fanning gently to let the cold air flow without causing it to flow too fast and make Lu Fenghe catch the cold.
Lu Fenghe turned sideways and took out the sandalwood box from the kang cabinet on one side.
Before Lu Fenghe could send a message, Qing Ling recognized the box, "This... this box was clearly given to Fu'an, why... why is it here again?"
Lu Fenghe said generally: "Sent it here again."
After Cuizhi came out, everyone else thought it was sent by someone.
Only Cuizhi's eyes flashed slightly. During the day, her brother was either in school or playing with other brothers and sisters. She basically didn't need her to serve him. She was always waiting for the girl during the day. She had never been to the Shen family. Master
None of the servants have.
Only at night, she served her brother and slept with him in the west room. The girl lived in the east room in order to look after her sister in the east room.
Could it be... that it was sent by the Shen Mansion at night? Yes, the prince is not surrounded by capable people, so it is a piece of cake to avoid girls like them.
If the people from the Shen Mansion can come quietly, then...can other thieves also come quietly? It seems that they need to talk to Mr. Silang. The guards in the manor are really not good enough, and they have to account for the night guard girl.
Be more alert.
Upon hearing this, Qing Ling asked: "Then... do we have to... send it back again?"
Before Lufu talked about her dowry, she was ready to send it back.
But now, she doesn't want to give it away, why not? Then the remaining monthly money for the county prince's house over the years can be used to make up for it with Shen Nanxun's private property, not to mention raising two children.
Lu Fenghe thought of these two things and said with peace of mind: "I won't give it away. My brother and sister's expenses will come from here."
The girls exchanged looks with each other but said nothing.
"Qing Ling, what I asked you last time is that your parents, brother and sister-in-law will definitely be in charge of Zhuangzi's shop in Kyoto and not allowed to return to Piling. Have you discussed it with them? How will you treat it?"
Qing Ling lowered her head, and her brother sent her a letter, hoping that she could find a housekeeper in a girl's shop or a village to marry, so that she could still be a girl and stay in Kyoto with her family.
"My slaves are all at your mercy."
Lu Fenghe understood immediately upon hearing this that Qingling's family had different ideas.
Bihe sighed softly, which surprised Lu Fenghe. Bihe was always lively and lively, and she couldn't even handle big things at her place. Why did he sigh now?
Lu Fenghe also noticed that Qing Ling glared at her, and then Bi He lowered his head.
When Lu Fenghe saw this, he didn't ask any further questions. He just made up his mind to ask in private.
"If you have any ideas, feel free to tell me, especially Cuizhi Lufu. We can't delay it any longer."
Among the four of them, the two of them were a little older than Lu Fenghe. Before they had a sister, they planned to see each other, but after they had a sister, neither of them wanted to see each other, so it was delayed for a year.
Lu Fenghe's trousseau included half of the property shops in Kyoto and half on Liangzhe Road. Now that she is going to Piling, there must be a trustworthy person left in Kyoto.
As for who should be kept, the other three people would benefit from Bihe. Bihe's temperament is not suitable for being left alone in one place.
Cuizhi and Lufu both blushed with embarrassment and bowed their heads in silence.
"If anyone is interested in it, please come and let me know the details for you."
Cuizhi and Lufu still shook their heads.
The sun was setting in the west, and Qin Ling'er, who had promised to have an evening meal together, hadn't come yet, but Lu Silang came first.
"Why is fourth brother here at this time and not following mother to the Guo Mansion?"
Lu Silang shook his head, "Send my mother over to meet my uncle, and then my third brother and I will go to the pier."
"Third brother is back too?"
"No, third brother still has some things to do. I came back early. Two things. One, there are letters from my grandparents and my father. These two letters are for you alone. They are for my grandmother and my father. My grandfather only gave them to my second brother.
A letter came, saying that if you are determined to reconcile, I will comply with you, and also asked you to wait until you are out of the moon, and set off back on the sixth day of June. He and my grandmother will wait for us at the dock on the tenth day of June. "
"So anxious?" Lu Fenghe asked.
If you are traveling alone from Kyoto to Piling, it will take at least four days by taking the canal.
Naturally, the children of the Lu family had no reason to let their elders wait at the dock.
Grandfather went to the dock to wait on the 10th. This was a clear message to them that they could either load the boat on the 5th and set off early on the 6th. If they took a little longer, they would have no choice but to go along the Nanqing River.
"Third brother asked me to tell you that my sister will go back to Piling when she is one month old. June 16th is also a good day."
"Brother means the same thing. Grandfather must have reasons for urging us to go back like this. Don't be too worried about it."
Lu Fenghe put the two letters handed to her by Lu Silang on the kang table, "Brother, what are you saying? It's not a big deal if the full moon is postponed for a few days. Grandpa didn't say why he had to go back in a hurry?"
Lu Silang didn't deny it or say anything, which meant that his grandfather had said it, but it was not appropriate to tell her.
Sure enough, something happened, and Lu Fenghe didn't ask further questions. The letter her grandmother gave her was very thick, so her grandfather should have written it too.
Her grandfather was always like this. He would always tuck his letters to her into her grandmother's letters. Sometimes they would just say a few words, and sometimes they would be more detailed than her grandmother's.
"One more thing, Shen Dalang was demoted."
Lu Fenghe nodded, "I understand, the Zhao family's second cousin will be here this afternoon."
Lu Silang quickly caught on to the different title from the past, "What's wrong? You had a quarrel with your new brother and wife?"
Lu Fenghe shook his head, "Not really, but..."
Lu Fenghe really had no clue, "Brother, there is one thing I don't understand. Why would the nanny next to her go to find Aunt Gao? I don't believe she is doing it for my own good."
"She is not someone who does good deeds anonymously. When I was young, I mentioned that her new embroidery pattern was beautiful, so she stayed up late to embroider a veil for me. As a result, everyone in the academy knew about it."
Lu Silang smiled gently, "You ladies always have a lot on your mind."
Lu Fenghe ignored Lu Silang's teasing, "When she came here today, she kept talking about how great it would be to have the imperial concubine in the future."
Lu Silang has always felt that when making friends, it is not strange for friends to have their own little thoughts, but if they have bad thoughts, they should be cautious.
"We are about to return to Piling now. If we don't want to wait any longer, we can just call Aunt Gao in and hand it over to the brothers. We can always ask something."
Lu Fenghe thought about it and realized that he really couldn't wait any longer. He would have to return to Piling in about ten days.
