Luo Chengzhang smiled at this and said, "Sister Lian has been very happy to hear that the governor is coming in person. She admires the general the most and says that true heroes are those who can fight on the battlefield to defend their country. She has also read some military books and can talk a little bit about it..."
Luo Chengzhang really spoke without thinking. Luo Yining clearly remembered that Luo Yilian hated fighting and killing the most.
Luo Yilian acted like a lady in the boudoir, lowering her head and smiling. Suddenly, she said softly, "Isn't Third Sister-in-law the governor's adopted daughter? Why don't you pay your respects to him? If you didn't know better, you would think she's disrespectful to her elders."
Luo Yining was standing aside, acting as a vase, and only looked up when she heard Luo Yilian mention her. The sisters-in-law had just bent down to follow Luo Yilian, not wanting to steal her limelight.
The two Zhous and Lin Hairu all looked at Luo Yining.
Then came Lu Jiaxue's low voice: "It's Yining, godfather hasn't seen you for a long time."
Luo Yining looked up and saw Lu Jiaxue's half-smiley eyes. He gritted his teeth and stepped forward to greet him: "How are you, foster father? I apologize for being rude just now."
"No problem."
Lu Jiaxue drank his tea, and Yi Ning retreated. The room fell silent for a moment. Nan Ge'er looked around, wanting to go to Yi Ning. But he didn't dare.
He raised his hand to bite his finger, and something on his sleeve fell off, landing on the dark lacquered floor with a slight sound.
That is a jade earring.
Yi Ning immediately recognized it as her earring, which she had just taken off to let Nan Ge'er play with it. She immediately went to pick it up, but the other hand wearing the ring had already picked up the earring.
Yi Ning could only bow and say, "Thank you, godfather. These are my earrings."
Lu Jiaxue smiled slightly, and as she looked, one of the earrings was indeed missing. He was playing with the earring, thinking of a few words to tease her, when his eyes fell on the side of her neck... His expression immediately changed.
If he saw it correctly, it seemed...
He squeezed the earring tighter and tighter, and even bent the sharp needle.
Lu Jiaxue's face darkened. Rage surged in his heart. He wanted to pull her over for a thorough examination. He wanted to ask her who had left her there! But he knew without hesitation that it could only be Luo Yining's brother, Luo Shenyuan.
Although they are nominally siblings, they live in the same room. Is it possible that they won't develop feelings for each other and secretly have an affair?
Maybe Luo Yining has already been married to him for a long time, but he just doesn't know!
"Master Commander, what's wrong with you..." Luo Chengzhang asked doubtfully. Lu Jiaxue seemed unhappy, his face slightly distorted. But what had upset him?
Luo Yining didn't know why Lu Jiaxue suddenly looked at her with such ferocious eyes that he seemed to want to eat her. She subconsciously covered her neck. Did he see something there?
Lu Jiaxue thought that she and Luo Shenyuan were just siblings, so she had never really done anything. What about now?
Lu Jiaxue didn't have the patience to play along with Luo Chengzhang. He threw the jade earrings aside, suppressed his anger, and said calmly, "Lord Luo, I'll come pick you up in seven days. You'd better be well prepared."
Luo Chengzhang was stunned. Wasn't seven days too hasty? Didn't you just say half a month?
He just thought that Lu Jiaxue was particularly fond of Lian Jie'er after seeing her and didn't want to wait any longer.
Lu Jiaxue really didn't want to wait any longer. He wanted to capture Luo Yining immediately. She was his wife. As long as he didn't say goodbye, Luo Yining would still be his wife. Whether she admitted it or not, she bore his mark, and it was absolutely indelible. He also wanted to kill Luo Shenyuan. How brave! He actually did it.
The cheerfulness and cheerfulness just now disappeared without a trace. Luo Yining felt his palms go numb, and that very bad premonition came back. Something was going to happen... something was definitely going to happen!
She hadn't figured out what Lu Jiaxue was going to do! His words and actions seemed to indicate he really wanted to marry Luo Yilian, but his intentions were definitely not good. She had always been afraid of Lu Jiaxue, and when she saw his face darken, she subconsciously panicked.
Lu Jiaxue left without saying much. Luo Chengzhang saw him off, while the remaining sisters-in-law congratulated Luo Yilian.
"The governor must have been so taken aback by our sister Lian'er's beauty that he brought forward the wedding date..."
"Why do I feel like the governor is a little angry..." Luo Yilian said softly, "It seems that after meeting my third sister-in-law, his adopted daughter, the governor is not very happy."
The other two sisters-in-law did not dare to agree and smiled awkwardly.
Luo Yining turned to look at Luo Yilian. If Lu Jiaxue really wanted to marry her, then she could just act recklessly. She just smiled and said, "Sister Lian, you should worry more about your own dowry. I'll buy you a few nice things when the time comes. When you go to the Lu family, don't lose your status as a distinguished family and make a fool of yourself."
Luo Yilian felt suffocated when she heard this. She hated it most when others said that she was of low status.
Luo Chengzhang just stepped in and said coldly, "The Marquis loves my sister Lian'er and just said that he would personally send her some gifts to make extra boxes. Why are you so worried? Sister Lian'er is your sister-in-law and is now marrying into the Lu family. Why don't you take care of her a little bit?"
"My daughter-in-law speaks too directly, but in fact she is also considering the reputation of the Luo family." Yining just bowed and said.
Luo Chengzhang was her elder, and it was unreasonable for her to contradict him, so Yi Ning skillfully circumvented the issue. But... was Lu Jiaxue really going to send Luo Yilian an extra box? Luo Yining still remembered the box of human heads he'd given her as an extra box. What extra box was he going to send Luo Yilian?
Yining's mood became a little complicated.
Seeing Luo Yining swallowing his anger in front of Luo Chengzhang, Luo Yilian felt that she had regained some face and looked better.
At the same time, she also made up her mind that the governor really did not like this adopted daughter. When she married into the Lu family and established herself as a legitimate wife through trickery, with Governor Lu as her backer, she would torture Luo Yining.
