He coughed: "What's going on in the yard?"

Xiulin, the servant who was supporting him, stretched his neck to look into the yard and replied, "Sister Jinyue is leading the maids to clean the yard, weed and plant flowers. They are burning wormwood ashes, probably to use them as fertilizer for the flowers."

Lu Yun was silent for a moment. Apparently, he came back early and no one in the yard knew about it. The flourishing flowers and plants in the yard were all grown in this way... The yard was full of smells. Lu Yun didn't want to go back to sleep at this moment. After thinking about it, he thought of a place to sleep. Together with the servant, he went to the big lake where Lu's house was connected to the Qinhuai River. The two of them fumbled and moved a small boat out from the pine and cypress bushes under the corridor.

It was summer now, and the lake was full of lotus flowers. Lu Sanlang planned to sleep on the boat and hide for the whole afternoon.

The lover was sleeping on the boat, which was drifting along the water and drifting along the shore to the depths of the lotus. The sunlight was dappled, and the servant Xiuzhu watched for a long time on the shore, but the lover's figure was completely invisible under the shadow of the boat. It was useless for Xiulin to wait by the lake at this time, so he thought about it and simply left, went back to "Qingyuan" to find Jinyue, and told her to clean up the yard quickly, because the lover had returned early.

Lu Yun slept deep in the lotus leaves, the boat swayed and drifted without a trace. Through a layer of gauze, the sunlight fell on his eyes, sometimes bright and sometimes dim. He rested his head with his hands on the back of his head, and fell asleep in the swaying of the boat, smelling the fragrance of lotus and pine and cypress. He didn't know how long the boat drifted, and he didn't know how long he slept. In his dream, Lu Yun heard the girl crying intermittently.

The crying, which seemed to last all afternoon, upset him and woke him up from his deep sleep. When he woke up, he didn't know where the boat was drifting to, but the crying of the girl on top became clearer.

Luo Lingyu: “Wuwuwu…”

On the wooden boat outside the reeds, Lu Yun, who was just waking up, said: "..."

He unexpectedly raised his eyebrows and curled his lips slightly.

Sometimes fate becomes particularly interesting at forking points.

In Lu Erlang's dreams, Lu Yun always lacked some luck to meet Luo Lingyu.

But in reality, after Lu Erlang's constant interference, Lu Yun could hear Luo Lingyu crying even when he was taking a nap on the boat. He could easily run into Luo Lingyu when she was jealous, showing her temper, and revealing her true nature.

Lingxi advised: "My wife, don't be sad. King Chen doesn't know your birthday..."

Luo Lingyu covered her face, feeling extremely sad: "Why is it that on the same birthday, everyone celebrates the birthday of a man, but no one cares about me, a woman? Why is he so much luckier than me? Why does everyone like him... They just say I'm good, but no one knows about my birthday... Wuwuwu..."

Chapter 69

In the hot summer, amid the swaying reeds, the girl was still crying, sobbing. His heart was confused, and she was in a mess, but she couldn't stop crying.

Luo Lingyu covered her mouth with a handkerchief, tears falling like pearls, choking with sobs. Once the grievance in her heart was magnified, it would only become more and more aggrieved: "Every man has it, why don't I have it? If my parents were still alive, if I were still in Ruyang, I would not be humiliated like this... Lingxi, I miss my father and mother, sob... If they saw me like this today... If they were with me today..."

Lingxi's eyes dimmed as she heard this. In fact, she was picked up by Luo Lingyu before she arrived in Nanyang. After being trained by Nanyang Lady Luo, she was sent to serve the two young ladies. At that time, Lingxi had heard about the past of the Luo family in Ruyang. At that time, there was a war in Ruyang, and the whole city was massacred. The loyal and brave members of the Luo family were wiped out, and only a few people survived. The girl was only ten years old at the time, but she had to escape with her younger sister who was ignorant and crying for her father and mother, and a timid and weak wet nurse who only knew how to cry. How difficult was it at that time?

The daughter of the Lu family, Lu Ying, and her son Luo Yan also survived the war.

The fates of the two parties were completely different. Luo Yan did not have to go to Nanyang to see the faces of the Luo clan members. He followed his mother back to her mother's family. After that, he never missed a day of studying and learning skills. His mother was even more open-minded and allowed him to go to Jianye to travel around the world at a young age. He has not returned yet; but Luo Lingyu... tried to please the Nanyang Luo clan and survived under the eyes of all her cousins. She even had to rack her brains to study. When people like Fan Lang saw this, the Nanyang Luo clan was even more reluctant to give her to the Fan family as a gift to show the good relationship between the two families.

Luo Lingyu's life is too tiring.

Luo Lingyu twisted her handkerchief and said, "Wuwuwu..."

In the reeds, lotus leaves stretching to the sky, and the air is filled with the fragrance of flowers. Lu Sanlang, who was sleeping on the wooden boat, had already groped his way to sit up. The reeds were too high, and his boat was parked where the lotus leaves and reeds were intertwined. The master and servant of the Luo family were crying so intently that they did not see the figure of the man sitting on the boat.

Lu Yun's face was calm, and he pursed his lips slightly. The girl kept crying and complaining, and the man felt like a heavy stone was pressing on his heart. Lu Sanlang was in a trance, and he felt the same way, thinking of his own parents who had passed away early. Just like Luo Lingyu's father who died in the war, his father was a general in Zhenbei and died on the battlefield. But unlike Luo Lingyu's mother who had no choice but to die with the defeat of the city, Lu Yun's mother had a choice.

However, his mother finally chose to commit suicide for her husband, leaving behind her child who was only a few years old.

Everyone praised his father's righteousness and his parents' deep love and loyalty... As for Yu Luyun, he always just curled his lips and was unwilling to mention it further.

Lu Yun always hated women being around him. People thought it was because he was too good-looking and attracted women, which made him upset. But there was a deeper reason for Lu Yun - he hated his mother.

Although he was the sabbatical son of the Lu family, Lu Yun had always lived alone in the "Qingyuan". The care of the elders was always limited. Every night when the room was quiet, Lu Sanlang's hatred for his mother deepened. Because of his mother, he hated weak-tempered women who did not think of solutions when encountering problems and just cried; but he also hated strong-tempered women who only thought about dying for love and justice when encountering major events, without caring about their own afterlife.

In this way, Lu Sanlang almost eliminated all the girls in the world. How could he possibly like one person?
