Chapter 327 The eldest senior brother has come with a betrothal gift!



Yueyue just wanted to remind her father, she didn't care about what happened later. As for whether the so-called Marquis Lu would look for her father Shu Shi, that was not her concern.

The next day, at the morning court session, before Shu Yan had the chance to report Lu Zheng, Censor Ye reported Lord Lu.

Lu Zheng was very angry yesterday when he found out his son was beaten. His son said that he was bullied by the shop assistants and that a woman came up and beat him without any reason.

Lu Zheng had made plans. After court today, he would go to the shop to find Ren Chu and others to seek justice for his son. Now that Censor Ye and Shu Yan had jointly reported him, Lu Zheng finally realized who his son had offended.

At this moment, Lu Zheng was kneeling trembling in the middle of the hall, wanting to strangle his son to death.

The emperor was very angry. There had been rumors that Lu Zheng favored his concubine over his wife and spoiled his illegitimate son. Today, he was reported by the censor in the palace. The emperor was furious and stopped Lu Zheng from attending the morning court for three months and fined him his salary. He was told to stay at home and teach his son well.

Although Shu Yan was somewhat dissatisfied, after all, his niece had taken action. He also couldn't offend the emperor, so he glared at Lu Zheng fiercely before standing back in his position.

Wen Zhi, Wen Ye and Wen Jing were all unaware of these things, especially Wen Ye, who knew what to do as her father-in-law was protecting her, while it seemed that she, her husband, was of little use.

Yueyue didn't know what happened in the morning court. The little girl went to Wen Mansion early in the morning because her eldest senior brother had sent her a message saying that he would arrive at noon today. She wanted to share this good news with her senior sister.

"Miss Yueyue, you are here. Miss is not up yet. Can I go get you breakfast first?" Xiaotao saw Yueyue coming so early and knew that she must have come without having breakfast.

"Thank you, Xiaotao. Yueyue is going to wait for her senior sister to have breakfast together. Can I go to the kitchen with you?" When Yueyue heard that her senior sister had not gotten up yet, she went to the kitchen with Xiaotao.

"If Miss Yueyue likes, she can go with Xiaotao." Xiaotao has been with Murong Shu for a long time, and she treats Yueyue like a child just like her own lady.

The two went to the kitchen happily, and when they came back with breakfast, Murong Shu had already gotten up with Xiaoju's help.

"Senior Sister, you're awake. Is the baby behaving well?" Yueyue ran to Murong Shu happily and looked at her belly tenderly.

"Wait a moment, senior sister. It will be ready soon." Murong Shu held the little girl's hand, in a very good mood.

"Sister, our eldest senior brother and third uncle will be here at noon today. Can we go pick them up after breakfast?" Yueyue wanted to go right away, but she also knew that her sister would be tired if she went too early while pregnant.

Murong Shu was very surprised to hear this and asked, "Are you sure you can arrive by noon today?"

"Of course, Senior Brother won't lie to Yueyue." The little girl hadn't seen Senior Brother for some time, and her eyes lit up when he mentioned him.

"Then let's go to the city gate to pick up our eldest brother and third uncle after breakfast." Murong Shu was even happier. She also missed her third uncle and eldest brother.

Xiaoju's hands moved faster and she quickly helped Murong Shu tie up her hair. Yueyue praised, "Senior Sister looks really good today."

Murong Shu smiled when he heard this. Yueyue is obsessed with looks. He touched Yueyue's head and said, "Our Yueyue is pretty too."

"Yeah, Yueyue is as pretty as senior sister." The little girl nodded seriously, making the maids and old women in the room laugh.

Yueyue is the happy pill in their hearts, and even more so the happy pill of their own young lady/mistress.

There are two pregnant women in the Wen family now, so Madam Wen ordered the kitchen to make more variations of breakfast, and the leftovers could be given to the servants.

Yueyue’s favorite thing is to come to the Wen Mansion for meals, and she likes the food here even more. If she wasn’t so restless, Murong Shu would be worried that she would eat so much that she would become a little fat girl.

After breakfast, Murong Shu took Yueyue for a stroll in the Wen Mansion to help digest the food. After a good rest, he took Xiaoju to the city gate to pick someone up.

As for Xiao Tao, Murong Shu sent her to the new house to make arrangements. The eldest brother and the third uncle would arrive at noon, and they would be taken to Fuqilai for lunch. Then they would be welcomed at the new house in the evening.

The eldest brother and his group arrived earlier than the time notified Yueyue, so he knew that Yueyue and Shu'er would come to pick them up.

Seeing the carriage from afar, Yueyue got on the horse and went to greet them. "Senior Sister, Yueyue will go to greet Senior Brother and Third Uncle."

"Go ahead, ride slowly." Murong Shu reminded Yueyue worriedly.

"I understand, Senior Sister." Yueyue rode away on horseback. Xiaoju smiled and joked, "Miss, I finally understand why Miss Yueyue insisted on riding a horse today."

"If I could ride a horse, I would definitely rush over there." Murong Shu said with some envy.

"Miss, you can't do that now, or your uncle will be worried to death. Miss, you don't know that before going to court every day, your uncle always tells me and Sister Xiaotao to take good care of you."

Xiaoju felt that her brother-in-law had become very nervous since her daughter became pregnant.

"Thank you for your hard work, Xiaoju and Xiaotao." Murong Shu's two maids were very hardworking, and sometimes he was afraid that they were tired.

"It's not hard at all. Being able to follow the young lady is a blessing we have earned in eight lifetimes." Xiaoju never felt that following Murong Shu was hard.

Their young lady was gentle and kind. She was very good to them and never blamed them. Such a life was what many servants dreamed of.

"Help me down, my senior brother and third uncle will be here soon." Murong Shu handed his hand to Xiaoju, asking her to help him get off the carriage and wait.

"Miss, slow down!" Xiaoju quickly helped Murong Shu down from the carriage. Her most important job was to take good care of the young lady.

Third Master and Senior Brother were delayed for so long on the road because they brought a lot of stuff with them. Third Master saw Murong Shu from afar and called out distressedly, "Xiao Shu'er, go and rest in the carriage. You don't have to get off the carriage to greet us."

"Third Uncle, Big Brother, Shu'er is fine." Murong Shu was very happy. Finally, the two of them came.

When they got closer, Third Uncle quickly jumped off the carriage and walked quickly to Murong Shu.

Murong Shu's eyes were red. These people were her closest relatives and their love for her was genuine.

"Why are you still crying? It's all your senior brother's fault. He delayed us on the road."

Third Uncle's eyes were also red, for his two beloved little ones, even though the other one had eyes only for her senior brother, it did not stop Third Uncle from pampering her.

"Don't say bad things about Senior Brother, otherwise Yueyue will pull out all your beard." Yueyue was unhappy when she heard Third Uncle and Senior Sister say bad things about Senior Brother, and she immediately started to threaten Third Uncle.

"You are such a heartless person." Third Uncle tapped Yueyue's forehead helplessly.

"If you click any more, you'd be even less smart." Yueyue said pitifully, and Third Uncle immediately lost his temper.

"Third Uncle, Big Brother, this is not the place to talk. How about Shu'er take you to my newly opened hot pot restaurant to try it?" Murong Shu acted coquettishly and both men agreed.

"Tingfeng, take all these back and give them to Xiaotao. She knows how to settle them." Murong Shu asked Tingfeng to send back the things brought by the eldest senior brother and his group first, and then they went directly to Fuqilai.
