Chapter 85 Returning Home
Pei Xia had never been to a brothel, but she had heard that any woman who went there could not escape. But since the lady was going, the master and the servant were one, so she had to follow.
"No matter where the lady goes, I will follow her!"
Su He smiled instantly, and the innocent Pei Xia said the same thing she said to Lu Huaihe.
"Okay, let's go back to Qinfangju."
It was late at night.
Lu Huaihe was still waiting.
Su He put aside the troubles and thought of the entanglement on the wedding night for no reason, and her cheeks blushed.
Inside Qinfangju.
Qingyun arrived first.
He wrote down everything that Su He and Lu Yanxiu said in the main hall, and relayed it to Lu Huaihe without missing a word.
"Did you hear it right?"
Qingyun said hurriedly, "It's exactly what I said. It's true."
He has always been reliable in his work.
Lu Huaihe's eyes paused. He didn't know that the dragon and phoenix twins that Lu Yanxiu was so proud of were not the blood of the Lu family?
How did Ah He know?
He was silent for a few seconds and arranged, "Keep this in mind and give her a helping hand."
"I know."
Qingyun retreated in time, and Su He didn't notice anything when she came in.
She glanced at Lu Huaihe who was sitting on the couch reading a book, narrowed her eyes, and walked to the dressing table alone to take off her jewelry.
Lu Huaihe was not in the mood to read. His eyes fell on her quiet figure and he asked softly, "Have you met?"
"Yes. My father's birthday is in seven days. He wants to come and congratulate me to thank him for his previous kindness, and I agreed."
Su He spoke to himself, more like a notification than a discussion.
Lu Huaihe: "The Su family has indeed helped the Lu family a lot. If Lu Yanxiu sincerely congratulates them, it is not too much."
Su He paused while taking the earrings and looked sideways: "That family is so heartless. I just treat the past kindness as a waste. There is no need for Lu Yanxiu to show off in front of my father. Aren't you curious about why I agreed?"
He put the scroll in his hand on the table, stood behind Su He, stared at the beautiful eyes in the bronze mirror, and smiled brightly: "Wait for you to tell me, then I will know?"
Su He did not answer.
If she said that Lu Yanxiu and his group destroyed his family in his previous life, would Lu Huaihe believe it?
The sky was getting brighter and brighter.
I should go back home today.
Su He woke up early, thinking about going home to see her father and mother, she moved her body, wanting to prepare and wash up early.
A clean and strong arm stretched out from the quilt and hugged her tightly. The man leaned on her shoulder sleepily, and his voice was slightly hoarse: "What time is it?"
"It should be the morning."
Seeing that the arms holding her did not move, Su He said softly: "I have to go back home today, don't stay in bed anymore."
"Okay."
Lu Huaihe really let go of her waist, rubbed her blurry eyes, and sat up.
Su He went to the cabinet and took out a royal blue robe with dark purple cloud patterns, spread it out for him to see, "How do you like the color? It's heavy and gorgeous, and it suits your status. Do you want to wear it?"
Lu Huaihe saw that she was struggling to spread the robe with her hands, and the end even dragged on the ground.
The little person was like a clothes rack.
Seeing this scene, Lu Huaihe's eyebrows softened, and his heart was as sweet as honey.
In the past many years, he lived alone in his own mansion. There were no more than ten people in the mansion, including servants, and there was no personal servant.
After getting married, many new flowers and fruit trees were planted in various places in the garden.
The bedroom suddenly became more colorful with the colorful furnishings, the precious dressing table, and the bright and beautiful clothes in the closet.
Lu Huaihe didn't think that the brocade gown would get dirty if it was dragged on the ground. He liked Su He to play with his clothes casually.
"I'm asking you, do you want to wear it?"
Su He saw that he seemed to be in a daze, so she reached out and pinched his face.
"Of course I have to wear what you choose."
Lu Huaihe came back to his senses and took the brocade gown with a silly smile, and gently stroked the place where she held it with her fingers, looking very interested.
Su He didn't know what he was laughing about, so he turned aside and muttered, "Did you fall asleep?"
A carriage with exquisite patterns stopped in front of the Su Mansion, and a handsome man got out of the carriage.
When Su He's Lu Huaihe arrived, he happened to see him entering the mansion, followed by several servants carrying some gifts.
"Who is that? Are there distinguished guests in the mansion today?" Lu Huaihe asked.
Su He was not very clear, but it seemed that his father had no young colleagues he knew.
The news of Li Yuan's carriage's arrival was heard from a distance. Zhao Wanrong came out to greet them in person. When she saw the two people talking in each other's ears, her smile was beyond words.
"Sister-in-law? Why are you here?"
Su He stepped forward quickly to support her. Zhao Wanrong couldn't help but smile and answered: "Why do I need support? Why didn't you send someone to inform us when you arrived?"
She pulled Su He's arm to her side, glanced at Lu Huaihe, lowered her voice and asked gossipingly: "How have you and Lord Lu been getting along these days? I saw that he was in high spirits and you were radiant, aren't you a good match?"
The word "match" has a different interpretation.
Su He blushed and argued: "Where am I radiant? Haven't I always been like this?" She turned her
head to look at Lu Huaihe again. He slightly raised his chin, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and his eyes revealed a little pride. He turned his eyes to meet Su He's, and his smile became deeper.
Su He held his forehead with his hands, looking very proud.
That's right, he finally got married and started a family, so there was no need to hide it.
"Are there any distinguished guests in your house today? I saw a young man come in..."
"Oh, that's Cheng Yu, the son of Jingzhao Yin, who came to propose marriage." Zhao Wanrong replied.
"Propose marriage?"
Su He thought he had forgotten everything. Some time ago, his father had arranged a marriage for Su Yun and selected several good men in Beijing. The one he valued the most was Cheng Yu. He was said to be working in the Ministry of Personnel. But he had clearly rejected the matchmaker's attempt. Why did he come to our house now?
"Who knows what the Cheng family is thinking? He rejected our family at the beginning, so why is he so shameless to come to our house now? He even learned from Lord Lu to come to our house in person to propose marriage!"
As they were talking, several people came to the main hall, which was surrounded by people.
Su Ronghai smiled when he saw his daughter and son-in-law, and hurriedly introduced Cheng Yu to them. Wang also stood up and saw Su He was safe and sound, and couldn't help but smile like an aunt.
"Father, mother."
Lu Huaihe followed Su He in respectfully performing the salutations of the elder generation, and then nodded slightly to Cheng Yu as an acquaintance, and then sent the servants behind him to bring in the return gifts.
Two pairs of three-legged hibiscus stone incense burners, two glazed phoenix-shaped vessels, and four scrolls of famous paintings and calligraphy, each of which was worth thousands of gold.
Su He didn't know when he prepared these, and Su Ronghai was completely unaware of them.
Seeing the gifts, Su Ronghai smiled from ear to ear, and his eyes were particularly satisfied when he looked at Lu Huaihe. Cheng Yu, who was standing aside, looked down at the gift he had brought, which was not even one ten-thousandth of the return gift. He immediately felt a little pale in comparison, and his face was ashamed.
"The table is set up in the Qiu Pavilion, shall we all move over there?" Wang saw that Cheng Yu looked unhappy and wanted to help him out. After everyone agreed, Su Ronghai led the way and they walked one after the other.
Because it was a return visit and Cheng Yu came to propose marriage, men and women could sit at the same table and there was no need to avoid each other.
