Chapter 161 That bed is pretty solid
Lu Jiangnian has calmed down.
He just wanted to stay by her side, without having to do anything. He would feel at ease just by having her quietly stay by his side.
After last night, his love for her became even deeper.
It turns out that after getting it, one does not feel satisfied, but desires it even more.
An endless desire for physical contact.
He wanted to hold her hand, to kiss her, to sleep with her.
But she probably wouldn't allow it, so he could only restrain his desire and just stick to her.
The two of them left the house together, and Madam Pang asked with a smile, "Madam, are you feeling unwell today?"
"fine."
When she was having dinner just now, Madam Pang specifically instructed the kitchen to stew a bowl of ginseng, black chicken and red dates soup for her. She was numb at the time. It really was like she was known to everyone.
Moreover, the look in Aunt Pang's eyes when she looked at her was particularly loving.
This kind of tacit ambiguity is really embarrassing.
Fortunately, she has always been able to keep calm. Even if she is so embarrassed that she doesn't want to see anyone, her face remains as calm as a rock.
"That's good."
"I'm going to have someone stew a pot of astragalus and mutton soup. It will be just right for dinner."
Yuan Wanru: ...
No need to do that, this is too much.
"No, I don't want to eat mutton today."
Aunt Pang smiled and continued, "If you don't want to eat mutton, how about donkey-hide gelatin and pigeon soup instead?"
Yuan Wanru shook her head firmly: "I'll just have one bowl of lotus root and old duck soup. I won't drink anything else."
She pulled Lu Jiangnian along and left quickly.
The two of them walked slowly up to the upper room. Lu Jiangnian looked around and the ordinary and natural rural scenery caught his eyes, but he found it particularly pleasing to the eye.
The sky is bluer, the trees are greener, and even the wild flowers on the roadside are blooming beautifully.
Yuanshan happened to come back from outside, saw them, and greeted them.
He asked with a smile: "Nephew-in-law, did I not disturb you from doing something important last night?"
boom.
Yuan Wanru's face finally couldn't be restrained and turned red.
The man beside him smiled complacently and said, "I didn't bother you. Last night's event was very successful. It was really memorable. I would like to thank my second uncle for his help."
Yuanshan always felt that these words sounded strange.
Lu Jiangnian was particularly talkative today, and he was still chattering away: "The moonlight was very good last night, it can be said that the time and place were right, everything was suitable, I chose a good day, and everything went smoothly."
He seemed to have thought of something, and said, "Uncle, the big bed in the west room is well-made, with a solid bed frame. Sleeping on it..."
Yuan Wanru couldn't listen any longer, she glared at him calmly, and interrupted him: "Second Uncle, grandparents are not out, right? I have something to ask them."
If I let him continue talking, I don't know if he will say something indecent or obscene.
Yuanshan felt that there was something strange between the two people, but even though he was the elder, he didn't dare to ask more questions.
"Here I am."
When she met Yuan Chengzhong and Lin, Yuan Wanru told them that she would leave for Beijing the day after tomorrow.
For a moment, the room was silent.
Yuan Chengzhong's mouth moved as if he wanted to say something but stopped himself, and for a long time he couldn't utter a word.
Lin was already in tears: "Can't you stay a little longer?"
Yuanshan was also a little sad, but he had already known that his niece was not the same kind of person as them. Her roots were in the capital, not Guhuai Town in Nanjiang County.
"Mom, Wanru is already married. It's the Lu family's understanding that she can come back this time. We shouldn't make things difficult for her."
Yuan Chengzhong's eyes dimmed, and he sadly echoed Yuan Shan's words: "Yes, we can't embarrass the child."
Lin choked up, took Yuan Wanru's hand, and squeezed it a little hard: "Don't I understand? I just can't bear to let her go. We are old now. How many times can we see her?"
"Old man, look at her eyes. Do they look like Yuan Chuan's? They are his blood!"
"I am old now, and I don't know how many years I have left to live. I feel sad if I see you one less time..."
After spending some time together, Yuan Wanru was somewhat infected by the atmosphere.
Parting is always sad.
However, everyone has his or her own path, and although separation is painful, it is inevitable.
She picked up her handkerchief and wiped Lin's tears: "Grandma, you and grandpa take care of your health, you still have a long way to go."
"I think Wenhao from my second uncle's family is a good student. If we train him well, he will pass the imperial examination and go to the capital to seek an official position. We may meet in the capital."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Shan looked at Yuan Wanru excitedly: "Is Wen Hao really capable?"
Yuan Wanru nodded: "I had some free time a few days ago and asked him about his studies. My husband also said that this child is smart. If he can study hard, he will achieve something in the future."
There is no elder who doesn't like to hear others praise their children, not to mention that these words came from Lu Jiangnian.
The Yuan family was in awe of Lu Jiangnian and had great faith in him. After all, not only was he the eldest son of a marquisate, he was also a third-rank official at a young age.
This official position is much higher than that of a county magistrate.
Yuan Chengzhong was overjoyed: "Okay, from now on, I will let your uncle train Wenhao well."
As they were talking, Yuan Xinhui came back.
Now Yuan Xiaojie has hope of recovery. She is in high spirits and walks much more briskly.
When she heard that Yuan Wanru and the others were preparing to return to Beijing, she was the saddest person.
"Are you back now?"
Wanru changed her life. Every time she saw Wanru, she always felt confident in doing anything.
"Well, aunt, I've been out for quite some time. Besides, no matter sooner or later, I'll have to go back to Beijing."
That is indeed the truth.
How many more days can I stay?
Yuan Xinhui thought it through and immediately made arrangements: "In this case, we must prepare some earthenware ceremonies tomorrow and let Wanru take them back."
The others nodded and began to discuss what items to bring.
Yuan Wanru did not refuse.
It's a habit to reciprocate gifts. If she doesn't accept it, it would seem too polite.
After dinner, it was dark. Lu Jiangnian and she walked slowly back with a lantern.
Yuan Wanru looked at the dusk and felt melancholy for a moment.
Lu Jiangnian seemed to sense her low mood and stretched out his long arms to embrace her: "I received news that my sister is going back to Beijing. I think she should be here in the next two days. Don't forget her when you buy gifts."
Sister, Lu Wei?
Yuan Wanru's mood was a little complicated.
When Lu Wei was waiting to be married, she spent some time with the original owner. To be honest, the relationship between the two was not good.
Lu Wei was born into a noble family. She was the only legitimate daughter and the eldest daughter in the marquis's mansion. In her daily life, she was very arrogant. How could the original owner, an orphan who had lost her father, be worthy of her attention?
Because of Wang Min, the original owner had been trying hard to please Lu Wei, but Lu Wei didn't buy it. When dealing with the original owner, she was always lukewarm and felt superior.
It wasn't until Lu Wei got married that the original owner felt relieved.
Yuan Wanru doesn't like Lu Wei either.
It’s not just because of Lu Wei’s previous attitude towards the original owner, but also because, in the book, Lu Wei likes Liang Yusong very much.
Lu Wei is Lu Jiangnian's only sister. His feelings towards Lu Wei are different from those towards Lu Yun and others.
But, so what?
If Lu Wei makes things difficult for her, she will never show mercy and will do whatever she wants.
If Lu Jiangnian's attitude makes her unhappy, then... it's not impossible for her to divorce him.
Anyway, she would never let herself down.
"Really? I see. Mother will be happy that my sister is back."
The light was dim and Lu Jiangnian couldn't see the chill in Yuan Wanru's eyes when she said this.
