Chapter 316: Filial Son
"Who is that?" Lu Chaochao widened his eyes.
Her scumbag father always dresses up well and looks very suave.
He is nothing like the unkempt, bearded man on the street.
"The old lady passed away, and he has to mourn for three years. Now he is drinking at home every day to drown his sorrows..."
"With Lu Yuanxi and Lu Jinghuai in charge of the mansion, how can he have a good life?"
"He has no children and is poor. When the mourning period is over, I'm afraid he won't be able to keep his official position. He has ruined such a huge mansion." There was a hint of sarcasm in Xu's eyes.
Even the servants in the mansion didn't pay much attention to him.
Without his dedication, the Marquis's Mansion quickly fell into decline.
After returning home, everyone gave Lu Chaochao a simple wash, and then Lu Chaochao lay comfortably on the soft couch.
"It's still more comfortable at home..." The little guy spoke like an adult, making everyone laugh.
After dinner, Lu Chaochao lay on the big bed he had missed for a long time and slept until dawn.
"Next month is the Madam's wedding day, and everyone in the mansion is preparing the things needed for the wedding."
"Bring a wedding cake for the girl later." Yu Shu wanted to braid her hair, but now she sighed when she saw the bald head.
Lu Chaochao finished his breakfast.
An uninvited guest arrived at the mansion.
"Prime Minister Yuan, please come and take a seat. Why did you come in person today?" It was the end of the year and it was also the wedding day, so Xu was very busy.
He personally invited Prime Minister Yuan in.
Prime Minister Yuan held a cane and looked seriously at Lu Chaochao who was hiding behind Xu.
"Did you ask someone to do your homework for you?" Prime Minister Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
"I didn't! I did it myself!" Lu Chaochao raised his hand and swore.
The little book boy behind the Prime Minister opened the homework.
"It's okay that the handwriting is different, but can't you find someone smart to do your homework for you?" Yuan Shoufu said indifferently.
"You know what? He wrote them all wrong!"
Lu Chaochao widened his eyes.
Xu took the homework and only flipped through two pages before gnashing her teeth: "Well, Lu Chaochao! I think you are looking for death!"
"Prime Minister Yuan, Yunniang will give you an explanation for this matter."
"I will never let anyone corrupt Chao Chao!"
Seeing her good attitude, Prime Minister Yuan nodded, then left with his servant.
"Send someone to invite Rong Shuangshuang over!" Xu said with a dark face.
…………
Rong Che and Lu Chaochao knelt together in the Buddhist temple to admit their mistakes.
Lu Chaochao was angry and anxious: "Why are you so stupid? You can even get a three-year-old's question wrong!!"
"Is that a question for a three-year-old?" Rong Che had never expected that his brain was not as good as that of three-year-old Lu Chaochao.
"I can lead troops in battle, but I can't do homework..."
"If I had been able to do it, I would have chosen the path of a civil servant. The Rong family's ancestors would have been so proud of it."
"Hmph, so stupid. I won't look for you again next time!" The two of them knelt in front of the Buddhist temple, talking to each other.
After kneeling for half an hour, the two, one big and one small, limped out of the door.
The two men snorted coldly and left in opposite directions.
The relationship between father and daughter can be severed at any time.
The Sixth Prince was sitting in the carriage and waving at her: "Sister, sister, come quickly..."
"Father will host a welcoming ceremony for you tonight. We will go find the Jade Boat first."
"Yuzhou said he found a kind of glowing mushroom. Let's go take a look..."
Lu Chaochao asked curiously when the carriage passed by the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.
"Why are there so many carriages outside the Guardian's Mansion?"
The Sixth Prince sighed: "Oh, Brother Siqi is sick. He was born with an eye disease. He is not affected during the day, but becomes blind at night." This matter was only revealed recently.
"I was already suffering from eye problems, but a while ago, I fell into a coma for no apparent reason while in the Imperial College."
"At the time, his breathing was weak and he was completely unresponsive."
"After sleeping for a day and a night, he finally woke up. All the doctors came to see him, but they couldn't find the cause."
"The Duke of the Protectorate no longer concealed the truth and sought a miracle doctor from all over the world, hoping that he could cure eye diseases and strange diseases."
The Sixth Prince looked around and whispered in Lu Chaochao's ear.
"The monk from the Huguo Temple also came to see him. He said that his soul was incomplete and that he was born with a mission, and he was afraid that he could not stay in the mortal world. He told Madam Li to have another baby while she was still young and make plans early. Madam cried so hard that she fainted. The virtuous concubine left the palace several times to comfort her."
After listening to this, Lu Chaochao felt empty and uncomfortable in her heart.
The carriage drove away, but he still leaned against the window and looked out.
The carriage stopped by the lake. The breeze blows the willows and the lake ripples.
Xie Yuzhou lay under a bare willow tree, with his butt sticking out and staring at the roots with burning eyes.
"Come and look... this is the willow tree. There are mushrooms growing under the roots. And these mushrooms emit a faint light at night..."
"Fortunately, I had someone guard it early, otherwise, the people would have picked it long ago."
Lu Chaochao sniffed and found the mushrooms had a strange smell.
Xie Yuzhou called away the servants and secretly hid the mushrooms in his arms.
He carefully picked all the mushrooms and said happily, "Let's go back to the palace and try the taste."
Several children ran excitedly to the small kitchen and did not allow the servants to follow them.
Pour out the mushrooms in your arms.
Xie Yuzhou is the oldest, and he directs Lu Chaochao to wash mushrooms.
The Sixth Prince was making a fire.
He cooked himself and made a pot of soup with mushrooms.
It is milky white in color, sprinkled with a handful of green onions, and exudes a rich aroma. It's a strange smell I've never smelled before...
"I dare not eat it. What if it is poisonous?" Lu Chaochao didn't dare to eat it.
The Sixth Prince also waved his hand.
Xie Yuzhou rested his chin on his hands, his brows furrowed.
"I have an idea!!" He took out a delicate small bowl, filled it and put it in the food box.
"Send it to my father. If he doesn't die after eating it, then it's not poisonous. If he dies after eating it, then it's poisonous and we won't eat it! Right?" Xie Yuzhou looked proud. I'm so smart.
The Sixth Prince and Lu Chaochao, the two little kids kept nodding their heads.
"Brother Yuzhou, you are quite smart."
The two of them flattered him and made him feel flattered.
The study room of Prince Jingxi's Palace.
The charcoal fire was burning in the house, but Prince Jingxi still felt a little cold and was thinking about adding some hot tea.
Then there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
Xie Yuzhou held the bowl in both hands, staring with innocent eyes, and carefully stepped over the threshold.
"Father, you must have worked hard reading. Yuzhou personally picked mushrooms for you and made mushroom soup for you..."
"Father, drink it while it's hot." Xie Yuzhou looked at his father eagerly.
When Prince Jingxi saw that his hands were blistered due to the burns, he asked hurriedly, "Does it hurt? Ask the servants to get some burn ointment." Xie Jingxi's face was full of anxiety.
"It doesn't hurt. I'm making soup for my father. Yuzhou doesn't feel any pain."
"Father, you have worked hard." Xie Yuzhou looked at him sincerely.
Xie Jingxi was originally angry at his misbehavior, but at this moment, he felt completely soft-hearted.
"Silly child, why do you have to do these things yourself? Father knows what you mean."
"You will always be your father's favorite child..."
Xie Jingxi remembered that he had been lying in bed for half a month and was overwhelmed with guilt.
"Father will control his temper in the future and never punish Yuzhou again." Jingxi looked at his son lovingly.
"Did you drink?" he asked.
Xie Yuzhou shook his head: "If my father doesn't drink, Yuzhou doesn't dare to drink."
Look, the father doesn’t drink, so the son doesn’t dare to drink? How filial.
Although the child is naughty, he still has his father in his heart.
Xie Jingxi was so moved that tears filled his eyes.
