Chapter 74 Where does the deep love come from?
After thinking for a few seconds, he asked in confusion: "In other words, she has become our elder? How can a deserted woman you don't want marry so well?"
Behind Lu Huaihe is the eldest princess, who is a member of the royal family! What qualifications does Su He have to marry such a powerful person?
"Who knows what Lu Huaihe thinks? I heard that the Su Mansion was filled with betrothal gifts alone, and he personally went to the door to handle it."
On the day of the betrothal gift, the team deliberately walked around the capital twice. Isn't this a show-off?
Lu Huaihe's move was undoubtedly rubbing Lu Yanxiu's face on the ground.
Back then, when Lu Yanxiu married Su He, the betrothal gifts were prepared by his grandmother. Although they were within the specifications of the marriage system, they were in sharp contrast to the amount of her dowry.
Now Lu Huaihe is parading through the streets with the betrothal gifts, which not only makes Su He look more powerful, but also slaps Lu Yanxiu in the face.
Thinking back to these days, the Lu family was particularly tense. On the other hand, Su He had no worries about food and clothing, and Lu Yanxiu was extremely unbalanced.
"Husband, do you regret it?" Liu Qiuqiu saw that there seemed to be regret in his eyes, and thought that he still missed Su He.
Lu Yanxiu snorted coldly: "I have no regrets about divorcing her, but..."
"Just what?"
He sighed: "If I had reconciled with Lu Huaihe earlier and got his help, maybe we would be living a life of luxury now. Qiuqiu, I don't want anything at this moment, I just want Ji'er to get better soon."
Liu Qiuqiu's brows were dim and her face was full of worry: "Ji'er...it would be great if a noble could help him."
Noble?
Lu Yanxiu didn't have the ability to make friends with nobles, which was also the reason why he had been doing nothing for many years.
His eyes lit up, and he thought of Lu Zhili, and immediately said, "Wait, I'll go ask someone for help!"
"Who?"
"Just wait for my good news."
Liu Qiuqiu watched Lu Yanxiu leave in a hurry. Because she was still in confinement, she didn't want to step out of the room.
Mingchun brought the lunch over and found that the young master was crying in his cradle, but Aunt Liu was lying on the door in a daze.
She was a little helpless, and seeing that the young master was crying and pitiful, she picked him up.
"Mingchun."
A voice came from the door.
"Can I leave the child to you?"
Liu Qiuqiu turned around, her body still feeling a little weak from giving birth. She had not had a good rest since the birth of the young master, causing her eye sockets to become sunken. At this time, facing the backlight, she looked particularly scary to Mingchun.
She shuddered, wishing she could put the little master back into the cradle immediately, but she was afraid that Aunt Liu would go crazy, so she had to pretend to be calm and replied: "Aunt Liu, I have been a servant all my life. How can I be qualified to take care of the little master? He won't be able to eat warmly or wear enough clothes if he follows me. I can't take good care of him, and I'm afraid I will hurt the eldest master and you, Aunt."
"Hehe." Liu Qiuqiu suddenly covered her mouth and laughed, her voice a little crazy, "I was just joking, why are you in such a hurry? Okay, I have a good appetite today and want to eat pigeon soup. You go down and prepare it."
Mingchun quickly said okay, carefully put the little master back into the cradle, and walked out of Tingyuxuan quickly.
After she left, Liu Qiuqiu walked to the bedside, looked at Ji'er who was still crying, and covered his mouth and nose with her hands.
Yi'er's crying gradually became smaller, but after a few seconds, she let go of her hand.
Liu Qiuqiu lowered her eyes and whispered softly: "Even if you die, you have to repay me for the pain of giving birth."
Yi'er didn't understand, and looked at her with tears in his eyes. He cried until he was exhausted and soon closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Before the sixth day of the New Year, Wang and Zhao Wanrong came to the Su residence and took Su He back to the Su family.
For a happy event like getting married, it is most appropriate to start from home.
Returning to the small courtyard that she had been away from for a long time, Su He found that all the furnishings had been arranged into new objects, and even many new trees were planted in the yard.
Wang took her hand and walked into the room, saying as she walked, "Marriage is a happy event. The yard is full of old things, which are bound to make people feel sad. I took the initiative to replace them all. You won't be angry, right, Ah He?"
"Mother, you mean well. How could I be angry?"
"That's good. The day is almost here. You should stay at home and don't go anywhere." Wang had a smile in her eyes. She seemed to be hesitant to speak, but after thinking for a while, she decided to speak, "You'd better not meet Lord Lu for the next few days. We will see each other every day in the future, and there will be plenty of time."
Su He blushed and said yes.
"That day, Lord Lu came to our house to ask for your hand in marriage. Your father and I thought that you had been wronged the first time. Even if it was the emperor's will this time, we would never send you away unless you agreed. That's why we specially asked for your opinion. But I didn't expect that you also liked Lord Lu. Since you are in love with each other, we have no reason to stop you."
In love with each other...
Su He lowered her eyes, "My daughter and him are not in love with each other, but I just want to get his protection. Fortunately, Lord Lu has a gentle personality and a good temper. Since my daughter has decided to marry him, she will definitely stay with him well."
Wang thought about it carefully. According to the rumors outside, they did not think Lord Lu had a gentle personality. But how could his private state be the same? If I had to be tense like in the Dali Temple all the time, it would be too tiring.
"That's good. Living is your business. It's not good for us, as elders, to interfere too much."
As a mother, she was still worried about whether she could get along well with the Princess Zhaoyang.
Su He's mind was still lingering with the words "mutual affection". How did Lu Huaihe feel about her?
If he had no feelings, why would he come to propose marriage in person and take care of everything?
But if he was deeply in love, when did it start?
Wang continued to talk nonsense, and Su He tried to shake off the thought and put it behind her.
Princess's Mansion.
Zhaoyang invited the embroidery lady from Jinxi Pavilion to come to her house to take measurements. As a mother, she couldn't afford to lose face at her son's wedding.
Just as the embroidery lady left, Nanny Tang came in to report that a guest wanted to see her.
Zhaoyang waved her hand and refused to see him. She always liked to be quiet. As long as they were not close relatives, she didn't want to meet them.
Nanny Tang hesitated and said, "It's the old lady from the Lu Mansion. She came with a cane."
"She? Is she crazy?"
Liu and her have been at peace for so many years, except for the last time they met in Shangqing Temple, how could she be qualified to enter her house?
"Let her in."
"Yes."
The Princess's house was magnificent, and the piece of jewel inlaid on the carved windows in the corridor was enough to make Liu happy for a long time. Along the way, everything she saw and heard was of the highest quality, which opened her eyes.
Hearing the thumping sound, Zhaoyang raised her eyes slightly and saw that Liu was indeed walking over with a cane, her body more hunched than before. Thinking of the native ginseng she sent to Lu's house that day, she smiled and asked, "Why are you getting worse and worse? Didn't I send you some supplements?"
