Chapter 300: Seeking a Child
Su Qingwan also understood Zhang's implication, "I pretended to be the elder sister just for revenge. At that time, I hated the Lu family and took my anger out on everyone. Lu Jing almost killed me in Nanfeng Tower. He has been investigating the remnants of Huainan, so how could I reveal my identity? It was not until I divorced and returned to Huainan that he realized my identity and guessed that I was pretending to be the elder sister."
Zhang breathed a sigh of relief. These words from Su Qingwan would be more convincing than from Lu Jing. For some reason, Zhang believed in Su Qingwan. She seemed to have a convincing magic.
Zhang was very pleased, but also a little worried. "You have been around the capital before, and many people recognize you. There will definitely be some gossip in the future, so don't take it too seriously. With your current status, even if others talk about you behind your back, they won't dare to say anything to your face. This is the path you have chosen. In the future...even if someone speaks offensively to you, you must be patient."
"Yes, mother, I understand!" Su Qingwan was very respectful. Although the Lu family would not live in the palace for a long time, because of Lu Jing's wedding, they still had to stay in the palace for three days until Su Qingwan returned home.
Lin had been warned and did not dare to act up. She was just a little difficult as an elder, but that was all within Su Qingwan's acceptable range. Su Qingwan did not care much about her thoughts and just acted politely.
If she said that she liked the Lu family the most, it was the unmarried girls. Although the fourth girl was unruly and arrogant, she was not a vicious girl like Li Xueying. The third girl was cute and lively, and the second girl was steady and generous. They were all beautiful and graceful. Su Qingwan liked them very much. Unfortunately, she was newly married, and the girls did not dare to disturb her, so Lu Jing occupied more of her time.
The people in this mansion were all newly purchased by Lu Jing, and there were Jinyiwei guarding the outer courtyard. The people in the inner courtyard were all trained, some of them were from the palace, and the rules were particularly strict. The attitude of the regent determined their attitude towards Su Qingwan. Everyone could see that Lu Jing cherished and loved Su Qingwan very much. The servants were all smart people, and they also knew that the prince only cared about the front court, not the backyard, and the backyard was decided by the princess.
Su Qingwan was also very relaxed when taking care of the household affairs. No one dared to go against her. She was always good at handling these trivial matters. After lunch, Lu Jing had nothing to do, so he took her hiking to worship Buddha.
"On the first day of your wedding, you come to worship Buddha?" Su Qingwan was extremely confused. "Am I ignorant? Is there a custom in Beijing for newlyweds to worship Buddha?"
"That's not the case!"
The carriage had reached the foot of the mountain. In the midsummer, the mountain flowers were in full bloom. There was a Hanshui Temple on the mountain. The incense was not very strong, but the mountain scenery was very beautiful, attracting many people who went outing and hunting. The mountain was very lively. The two climbed up the steps and occasionally met people coming down the mountain. When people saw their clothes, they knew they were either rich or noble, and they all gave way.
Lu Jing said, "I've been busy with official duties this year, and I rarely have a good time to rest. I'll take you out for a walk while the weather is nice. It's not good to stay bored at home all the time."
Su Qingwan is not a very home-bound person. Since she came to Beijing, she has been trapped in the villa and seldom goes out. Lu Jing knows that Su Qingwan is afraid that others will spread rumors when they see her. She doesn't want to cause trouble before the wedding, so she is passively trapped at home. Li Yue occasionally tells her what Su Qingwan is doing. Lu Jing feels a little sad after hearing this. Su Qingwan has traveled all over the world, how could she like being trapped in this world? If it wasn't for marrying him, she wouldn't have to be so aggrieved.
Su Qingwan felt soft in her heart. She didn't expect Lu Jing to have such an idea.
But she was moved for a short time before Lu Jing said, "This Hanshui Temple is quite effective in praying for children."
