Chapter 503: The Fortune Tree from the Lu Family
After finishing the college entrance examination, Yu Yongliu slept for a whole day at home and finally felt a little energetic.
Bai Xiaofeng felt sorry for her son, and sent all kinds of supplements to Yu Yongliu's room. Yu Yongliu knew that this was his mother's love for her son, so she used almost all of them, and even caused her nose to bleed.
Bai Xiaofeng was panicked and anxious. Xingxing ran over to see Yu Yongliu, who said that it was just because she had taken too much supplements at the moment and was a little irritated. Bai Xiaofeng then felt relieved.
There was another happy event in the Yu family, Ah Wu became pregnant.
The child was very well behaved in Ah Wu's belly and didn't make any noise at all.
Ah Wu had no idea that she was pregnant with a baby. If she hadn't calculated her period and found that it seemed like she hadn't come for a few months, and Xing Xing happened to be by her side and took Ah Wu's pulse, then she would have realized that she was pregnant with a baby.
Counting the dates, I think she was conceived during the Chinese New Year.
Ah Wu was extremely happy and pointed at her belly: "Si Yang, we have another baby!"
Yu Siyang was very happy, Xu Ge'er was already four years old and Ah Wu had never wanted another child. He thought that giving birth to a child was so painful, so it would be good for Ah Wu to have only this one.
But Xu Ge'er was very good-looking, and Ah Wu liked children. During the Chinese New Year, when she saw that her sister-in-law was pregnant again, she also pestered Yu Siyang to have another child.
I didn’t expect that I would get pregnant again!
Old Lady Liu has been walking with a breeze these days!
When the Yang family was in gloom, the Yu family was in joy and happiness.
It was at this time that Xingxing received a visiting invitation from Princess Qing'an, who wanted to visit Xingxing at the Zhenxi General's Mansion.
There will be a spring banquet at Prince Ying's Palace in a few days. Xingxing was a little surprised that Princess Qing'an came at this time.
However, Xingxing had a good impression of Princess Qing'an, and she just wanted to thank her, so she agreed and prepared a lot of food in her own courtyard, waiting for Princess Qing'an to come and visit.
When Princess Qing'an came to visit, Xingxing was stunned when she saw her.
Princess Qing'an has a bright and elegant appearance. She is dressed up even more carefully now. There is a teardrop-shaped ruby pendant on her forehead, which makes her bright and radiant face even more bright and beautiful.
When Princess Qing'an saw Xingxing's stunned look, she felt a little embarrassed: "Does it look good?"
Xing Xing nodded her head: "Looks good, beautiful!"
Princess Qing'an felt somewhat proud again, and took Xingxing for a stroll in the Zhenxi General's Mansion.
Xingxing was a little confused, but since the guest wanted to visit the garden, Xingxing was happy to accompany him.
Of course, Xingxing also didn't forget to thank Princess Qing'an.
"By the way, Princess, I haven't thanked you yet..."
Princess Qing'an waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, no, forget about other things. If you want to talk about the Yang family, it was really not me who told the emperor's uncle and others."
Princess Qing'an was also somewhat puzzled, "Didn't someone in your family find connections and bring this matter to the palace?"
Xing Xing shook her head.
Princess Qing'an's eyes widened slightly, and she was even more surprised: "I didn't even have time to enter the palace at that time, but I saw that the palace had already started to attack the Yang family. Later, I thought it was your family that took action."
Princess Qing'an's bright face showed a bit of confusion, which was quite a contrast.
Xing Xing couldn't help but burst out laughing, then she slowed down and said seriously, "No matter what, I still want to thank the princess for her kindness!"
Princess Qing'an waved her hands and said, "No, no, no, to be honest, I was the one who invited Yang Ruyuan to the manor. I am the host, and I am really sorry that you have suffered such an unexpected disaster."
Princess Qing'an is different from some of the arrogant noble ladies Xingxing has met. She has the arrogance of a royal family, but when dealing with people, she will not use this arrogance on her friends.
Xingxing quite likes getting along with Princess Qing'an.
The two of them were strolling in the garden. Princess Qing'an did not act like a noble lady at all. She looked around the Zhenxi General's Mansion with great curiosity.
Just then, I saw a few servants carrying in a fortune tree. The tree was growing beautifully, lush green, and hung with red ribbons. I guess it must be a gift from someone else, so it was both auspicious and festive.
Princess Qing'an was curious and asked who sent the fortune tree.
Upon inquiring, I found out that it was sent by the Lu family in Yanzi Hutong.
Princess Qing'an's expression suddenly became subtle: "...The Lu family in Yanzi Hutong?"
Xing Xing asked curiously, "What's going on with the Lu family?"
Princess Qing'an considered her words, moved closer to Xingxing, and whispered, "Before, your mansion was chosen by the Lu family... Later, the emperor's uncle gave it to your elder brother. The Lu family has always been a bit of a mismatched eye and nose. After all, the Lu family still has a noble concubine in the palace."
Xingxing recalled the subtle attitude of Consort Rougui when she went to the palace to meet the Empress. Her expression also became a little subtle: "Is that so..."
Princess Qing'an walked around the fortune tree again with great interest: "However, the fortune tree sent by the Lu family is in very good condition. What do they mean by sending it? Congratulations on your fortune?"
Xing Xing said, "Oh!" "My second elder brother is doing business!"
Princess Qing'an suddenly realized and became even more surprised: "Then the Lu family is quite sincere?"
Princess Qing'an thought about it carefully and understood. She said, "Ah!" and whispered to Xingxing, "The royal concubine Rou just got a prince because of the Yang family's affairs. This is probably a way of returning the favor, a subtle way of saying that she remembers your family's kindness."
Xingxing also suddenly realized.
The two little girls were whispering around the fortune tree. Yu Yongbai and Yu Yongliu came over from the corridor. When they saw Xingxing's back, the two brothers walked over along the corridor.
Yu Yongbai smiled and asked, "Xingxing, what are you doing here?"
Xing Xing recognized Yu Yongbai's voice, turned around, and greeted Yu Yongbai and Yu Yongliu happily: "Second brother, third brother! The princess and I are looking at the fortune tree sent by the Lu family!"
Yu Yongbai and Yu Yongliu were stunned. Only from Xingxing's words did they realize that the girl next to Xingxing was Princess Qing'an.
The two of them stopped, stood a distance away, and bowed, "Greetings, Princess."
Princess Qing'an's voice sounded a little strange, as if it was unnaturally tense. She said with a straight face: "...No need to be polite."
Because Princess Qing'an was there, Yu Yongbai and Yu Yongliu just said hello and left to avoid suspicion.
Xingxing could clearly feel that after her second and third brothers left, Princess Qing'an beside her relaxed completely.
Huh?
Are her two brothers that scary?
Xingxing was extremely puzzled.
Princess Qing'an had a strange look on her face and didn't speak for a long time. When Xingxing looked over, she found that Princess Qing'an's face was red.
"Actually... I was there when your brother won the Phoenix Prize for you during the Lantern Festival." Princess Qing'an blushed and felt quite uncomfortable. She whispered, "Your brother is really amazing."
