Chapter 128 128: Come on, girl
"Sister Qingya, don't doubt my words. After all, it's good for me that you become my father's aunt." Lu Xiang smiled slightly.
So don't hesitate, go for it, girl.
Zhao Qingya struggled for a long while: "Miss San, let this servant think about it."
"Okay." Lu Xiang said, "I'm waiting for my sister's answer."
Zhao Qingya nodded and left.
After she left, Qiao Jingru and Mother Ding came out from the inner room, and Lu Xiang poured Qiao Jingru a cup of tea.
"What do you think is the probability that Zhao Qingya agrees?"
Lu Xiang said: "Ninety percent."
Qiao Jingru looked at her in surprise: "Are you so sure that she is willing to be father's concubine? Then why is there 10% left?"
"Another achievement is her sincerity to her elder brother."
Qiao Jingru couldn't laugh or cry immediately: "Xiangxiang, I can't bear to be scared now." If Zhao Qingya really has a deep affection with Lu Chao, can she stop it?
"Sister-in-law, don't panic, because she didn't nod, and it's hard for me to talk too much, but since Zhao Qingya said to think about it, it's a sure thing." Lu Xiang said.
Qiao Jingru nodded: "Well, no matter what the result is, thank you for thinking about me."
"My sister-in-law will be out of the way when she says that."
Zhao Qingya came to Lu Xiang the next day, faster than Lu Xiang expected.
"Sister Qingya, have you made up your mind?"
"I've made up my mind." Looking at Lu Xiang with bright eyes and bright teeth, Zhao Qingya looked a little unnatural: "I want to live a rich life, and I don't want to be an enemy of the third lady."
This means to abandon Lu Chao and become Lu Youping's concubine.
The corners of Lu Xiang's lips raised slightly, showing a shallow smile: "I don't want to be an enemy of Sister Qingya and embarrass Mother Wen. It will still hurt Grandma's heart."
"In the future, please ask the third lady and the eldest mistress to take care of her more." Seeing that Lu Xiang didn't mean to mock her, Zhao Qingya smiled softly.
"Sister, you are welcome. When you become father's aunt, you will be half of our elders."
"What should the servant do next?" Zhao Qingya asked.
Lu Xiang walked to her side and whispered something in her ear.
The evening sun was brilliant and magnificent, Lu Xiang took Qiao Jingru to Fuyuan Hall for dinner, and asked Mother Wen to cook more special dishes.
The old lady poked Lu Xiang's forehead, and said with a smile, "You still make so many demands when you come to Cengfan."
Lu Xiang took the old lady's arm, rubbed on her shoulder, coquettishly: "Grandma, you despise me so much, I will be sad."
"Come, come, let grandma see how sad you are." The old lady held Lu Xiang's face and kneaded her like a dough: "Well, the sad ones are deformed, it seems that you will wait a little longer. something delicious."
"Did Ms. Wen pickle her elbows yesterday? It happened to be burnt today." Lu Xiang stretched her neck and let the old lady rub her face all over, making the old lady laugh out loud.
"It comes from the smell, you belong to the dog."
Mother Wen heard what Lu Xiang said outside the house, and took the opportunity to come in: "In addition to the sauced elbow servants, I also made dry steamed duck and abalone, and the third lady will eat them openly."
"Well, eat, grandma will feed you to make you fat." The old lady said happily with her arms around Lu Xiang.
Lu Xiang pinched the fat on her waist subconsciously, and sighed softly.
Since her father recruited a new chef who cooks Sichuan cuisine, she has been eating too much, and she seems to have gained a lot of weight.
Do you have to avoid food and eat less?
I thought so, but when he saw a table of delicious food, Lu Xiang had already forgotten about the taboo.
"Grandmother, you can eat too." Lu Xiang ate happily, and brought food to the old lady by the way.
The old lady's gaze was so fond that water dripped out, and she didn't forget to greet Qiao Jingru: "Jingru, you should eat more too, it's been hard work just taking over the affairs of the house."
Qiao Jingru moved with a smile and said, "With the trust of my grandmother and father, it's not hard."
Even if the people below have some small thoughts, she can solve it.
"This soup tastes great, why haven't I tasted it before?" Lu Xiang said suddenly.
The old lady smiled and said, "This lotus root soup is made by Qingya."
"Grandmother, has Daddy had dinner yet? Tell sister Qingya to scoop up a bowl and take it to father." Lu Xiang put down the soup bowl, looked at the old lady and said.
The old lady was startled for a moment, and then she showed a look of relief, a loving father and a filial daughter, this is what she is most happy to see.
So he hurriedly called Zhao Qingya over without asking whether his servant Lu Youping had dinner.
"Miss Tang San tastes good, you can fill a cup and send it to the front yard to the master."
Zhao Qingya suppressed the pounding heart in her chest, pretended to be calm and replied: "Yes, slave girl will go now."
As she said that, she didn't dare to look at Lu Xiang more, because she was afraid that people would see something strange because of her nervousness, so she took the lotus root soup and went to the front yard.
After dinner, the two left Fuyuantang.
In the late autumn night, even the exhaled breath is covered with white mist.
Qiao Jingru gathered the cloak on her body, and walked side by side with Lu Xiang: "Can Zhao Qingya succeed?"
"It's okay, if it doesn't work once, there will be another time, besides, my father is not Liu Xiahui." Lu Xiang was not in a hurry.
Now they are in the light, and her father is in the dark. Zhao Qingya has mental calculations and inadvertently. In order not to have long nights and dreams, she must be more urgent than them.
"En." Qiao Jingru nodded absently.
Lu Xiang rubbed her cold fingers, and said to Qiao Jingru, "Sister-in-law, the Empress gave me quite a few small hand warmers, which are exquisite and beautiful. Come and pick some out tomorrow."
Qiao Jingru waved her hands in fear: "That's something the Empress gave you as a gift, how can I take it."
Let her pick a few more?
She was trembling a little.
"It's okay, my lady is kind, and I don't care who I give it to, and I don't give it to others." Good things should be shared with close people.
Lu Xiang's smiling eyes are very cute, and Qiao Jingru's heart warms up: "Well, then I'll pick one."
"Okay." She will send two to her grandmother tomorrow.
The next morning, Lu Xiang came to Fuyuan Hall in a hurry. Seeing her solemn expression, Mother Wen couldn't help being suspicious: "Why did Miss San come so early?"
The old lady loved Miss San very much, so she never forced Miss San to get up early to pay her respects.
"Mother Wen, is grandma awake?" Lu Xiang asked.
As soon as she spoke, a cold breath came out of her mouth, making her sneeze involuntarily.
Mother Wen felt distressed immediately, and hurriedly dragged her into the room: "The old lady has always slept lightly, and she has already woken up. The servant girl is going to fetch hot water for the old lady to wash. What happened to the third lady who came here early?"
"Something happened to sister Qingya."
Mother Wen was shocked, and she didn't bother to fetch hot water: "What's wrong with Qingya?"
"Mother Wen, don't worry, she's fine, let's go to grandma first, and don't ask other people to approach the house for now."
Mother Wen nodded blankly, and before entering the house, she gave a few words to the maid in the courtyard, and then closed the door.
The old lady was quite surprised to see Lu Xiang this early in the morning: "Why do you get up so early?"
