Chapter 274: A Moment of Proudness
At night, the silvery moonlight fills every corner, the flowers in the yard are in full bloom, and a faint fragrance floats in the air.
After Xiao Muheng returned home, he changed his clothes and went to Lu Mingzhu's courtyard.
A table full of delicious food was prepared in the kitchen.
Lu Mingzhu stood at the door, looking at Xiao Muheng who was walking in the moonlight, her expression extremely excited.
His eyebrows were flying into his temples with a flowing and detached arc, his thin lips were slightly pursed, and his angular facial features made him look extremely cool and handsome.
Xiao Muheng's appearance was indeed fascinatingly handsome. Lu Mingzhu stared at him as he walked towards her.
"Husband!"
When the person approached, Lu Mingzhu called out tenderly, took a few steps forward, and gently hooked her little finger around Xiao Muheng's hand.
Xiao Muheng lowered his eyes and looked at the charming and beautiful face of the woman in front of him, and his heart couldn't help but be slightly moved.
He always felt that the Lu family had plotted against him by having Lu Mingzhu hide in his house and then be found by Lu Youping in order to make him responsible for Lu Mingzhu. Xiao Muheng looked down upon the Lu family's style.
But now he felt that the Lu family gave him their beautiful daughter as a concubine for nothing, so he was not losing out no matter how he looked at it.
In terms of appearance, Lu Mingzhu is as beautiful as Liu Anyao.
Moreover, Lu Mingzhu was deeply in love with him. Although she was a useless abandoned pawn, she was at least innocent. Comparing the two, Xiao Muheng suddenly liked Lu Mingzhu a lot more.
And her infatuation also gave him great satisfaction.
Looking at Lu Mingzhu's infatuated eyes, Xiao Muheng smiled slightly and pulled her into the house...
The next day, Lu Mingzhu woke up with aches all over her body. She immediately thought of what happened last night. Her eyes revealed a charming charm and she couldn't stop smiling.
Huamei and Lanqiu heard the noise in the house and hurriedly pushed the door open.
"Aunt is awake. The eldest young master has gone to visit the teacher. Before leaving, he specifically told the servants not to disturb her sleep." Lan Qiu said with a smile.
Lu Mingzhu felt Xiao Muheng's thoughtfulness and concern, and felt both touched and shy.
"Help me change and wash myself."
The two of them responded and helped Lu Mingzhu get up.
Mother Qin brought warm water, and after washing, she sat in front of the bronze mirror and let Huamei comb her hair and dress her up.
During breakfast, Lu Mingzhu asked casually, "I've never asked before, but are there any other masters in this mansion besides my husband?"
Madam Qin replied, "I have inquired about it. The eldest young master is the eldest in the family. He has a younger sister who is his own daughter, and the rest are his half brothers and half sisters. It is said that the master and his wife will move in before the eldest young master and Miss Liu get married. Currently, only the eldest young master and his concubine live in the mansion."
"Well, although my parents-in-law and sister-in-law are not here, we should prepare the gifts for them early, so that we won't be in a rush when we meet them."
Mother Qin replied, "Yes, I understand."
That day, Xiao Muheng returned home early, met Lu Mingzhu, and handed her a brocade box.
Lu Mingzhu was surprised: "What is this?"
"Open it and take a look." Xiao Muheng said with a smile.
Lu Mingzhu followed instructions and opened the brocade box. What caught her eyes was a golden hairpin with a bird-shaped head and inlaid with jadeite and a jadeite bracelet that shone like water.
"So beautiful." Lu Mingzhu said in surprise, looking up at Xiao Muheng, her eyes full of joy: "Is this for me?"
"Well, do you like it?"
"I like it. Thank you, husband." Lu Mingzhu said excitedly and quickly took the bracelet and put it on her wrist.
It was only the first day of their marriage and her husband gave her such expensive jewelry.
She said that Brother Yiheng's love for her would only give her something more valuable than a dowry.
From now on, she will have endless wealth and glory.
Xiao Muheng gently lifted Lu Mingzhu's chin, a faint smile appeared on his handsome face, and his voice was low and seductive: "Then do you want to repay me well?"
A vain and greedy woman is the easiest to control.
Lu Mingzhu's pretty little face flushed slightly, and her shy look carried the charm of a virgin, which made people feel itchy.
For several days, everyone in the Xiao family knew that the eldest young master doted on Concubine Lu. No one knew what the situation would be like in the future, but at least for now the eldest young master was still in the fresh mood, so everyone was extra polite and respectful to Lu Mingzhu.
Lu Mingzhu only felt that her life was going smoothly. Her husband loved her and her servants were respectful to her. It was so glorious that the Lu family could not compare to her.
Even if her father loved her in the past, she still had the old lady's pressure on her, so she didn't have the comfortable life she has now.
Lu Family
Yunzha told Lu Xiang what Qin's mother had passed back. Wu Yue, who was standing by, stomped her feet after hearing it.
"Miss, from what Mother Qin said, it seems that Miss Four has been sent to a happy place."
I thought that since I had tricked Xiao Muheng, Xiao Muheng would hate the Fourth Miss to the core. Who would have thought that he would be so doting on her despite her beauty?
From this point of view, the fourth young lady's life is really comfortable.
Yunzha nodded in agreement.
Lu Xiang looked at his indignant girl with a smile and said, "Don't worry, Lu Mingzhu may be proud for a while, but she won't be proud forever."
Others are not sure how selfish Xiao Muheng is, but she has experienced it herself in her previous life.
He could coldly and ruthlessly kill those who were useful to him, not to mention Lu Mingzhu who was of no use at all.
Now it's just because he's attracted to Lu Mingzhu. After all, she has already entered the Xiao residence. Isn't it possible for him to sleep with her, his own woman?
Lu Mingzhu's good days only lasted for a short time.
When Liu Anyao gets married, can she tolerate a concubine who came into the house earlier than her and compete with her for her husband in the mansion?
This person was Lu Mingzhu, who had caused her to be punished by the Queen Mother and whom Concubine Shu hated.
Even if there were no such reasons, Liu Anyao would not let Lu Mingzhu have an easy time just because she was a member of the Lu family.
The feeling of falling from heaven to hell is so painful that one wishes he would die.
Yunzha and Wuyue looked at each other and instantly understood what their young lady meant.
Wu Yue pouted and hummed: "I'll see how long she can be so proud."
"Don't be angry. What time is it? I have an appointment with my sister-in-law to have tea. Don't be late." Lu Xiang said.
Yun Zhe said: "It's still early."
Lu Xiang thought for a moment and said, "Let's go now. Let's go to Furong Pavilion first, and then go see my sister-in-law."
"yes."
The two responded.
Yunzha hurriedly went to call A'man. Now the young lady asked A'man to follow her when she went out of the house. She and Wuyue could serve the young lady, but if going out of the house involved matters involving the young lady's safety, A'man still had to accompany her to protect her.
The two of them had no objection to the fact that Ah Man was highly valued for her work for Lu Xiang.
Ever since Yunxiang and Mujin were sent to Furong Pavilion by the young lady, she has not promoted any of the maids below her. It is enough for her and Wuyue to serve her personally. Ah Man has a simple and honest personality, but her ability to do things for her is unmatched by others, so the division of labor among the three of them gradually became clear.
