Chapter 1055 The Thoughts of the Two
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble you, Master Xiang."
Xiang Weinan waved his hand, "It's alright, it's alright, Mr. Lu Xiang, go ahead and do your work. I was hoping to come and ask you for a drink, but I'm busy now, so I'll have to come another time."
After saying that, he turned and left with Hu Li.
After watching them leave the crowd, Shu Yu turned around and led a large group of people back home.
The onlookers were stunned, and only after the person went inside did a buzz of discussion suddenly break out.
Some people even went up to the Lu family to talk to them and wanted to join the Lu family's banquet.
Ying Dong stood at the door, firmly yet kindly refusing the request, and simply welcomed the Lu family's guests back.
Ding Yuehua, on the other hand, stood at the door with a frown, staring fixedly in a certain direction.
Kong Zhiyou originally wanted to get closer to Shu Yu, but there were too many people around her at the moment, and the Lu family members surrounded her, so she was pushed out.
If it weren't for the maid Qiuju supporting her, she probably would have fallen.
She grew increasingly annoyed with these clueless, aimless farmers, but she took a deep breath and slowly followed them inside.
Seeing Ding Yuehua standing there, he paused, reached out and tugged at her, "Yuehua, why aren't you going in?"
Ding Yuehua finally looked away, thinking that today was Ayu's birthday, and whatever it was, she would deal with it after today. She remembered what her mother-in-law had said; she would see her when she got home that evening.
Letting out a breath, Ding Yuehua smiled and said, "Let's go in."
She walked inside first, and Kong Zhiyou quickly followed. After a few steps, she asked in a low voice, "Yuehua, do you know how Lord Lu Xiang met those two officials from the capital?"
Ding Yuehua shook her head. "I'm not too sure about the specifics, but we probably met in the southwest. What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, I'm just too surprised." Her husband will be taking the provincial examination in two years. If he passes and has those connections, he won't have to worry about anything.
Ding Yuehua laughed and said, "I was surprised too. I didn't expect even the Emperor to send a gift to Ayu. What a great favor that is." As she spoke, she became slightly excited. "When I saw County Princess Zhang come earlier, I was very worried. It seems that I was overthinking it."
So, it's not a big deal if the Wu family sells their two white horses to Ayu?
She had originally reserved the horse, and now that the white horse is 'cured,' she can sell it to it again. What could Lady Zhang possibly say?
Thinking of this, Ding Yuehua's mood improved.
After having lunch at the Lu family's house, she would immediately head to Donggu County and bring the two horses back the next day. Although it was a day later than her coming-of-age ceremony, it was better than nothing.
Kong Zhiyou laughed and said, "I think we're going to suffer a big loss this time."
As they were talking, the two had already walked to the front hall, which was full of people, with the Lu family members surrounded in the middle.
Kong Zhiyou looked up and realized that she couldn't squeeze in at all.
She said to Ding Yuehua, "Lu Xiangjun's birthday banquet was really lively. My birthday is next month. I was originally thinking of keeping it simple and just having a meal with my family. But seeing this, I still think that birthdays should be celebrated in a lively way. I'm also planning to have a banquet. Yuehua, you have to come."
Ding Yuehua smiled and said, "That's natural."
"Then tell me, if I invite Lu Xiangjun, will she come?"
