My daughter experienced another life and death. Lu Rong was standing by the bed. Hearing her breathing grew longer, and knowing that her daughter was asleep, Lu Rong picked up the bamboo stick, gently lit the ground, and walked out of her daughter's boudoir. Just after Shangyuan, the bright moon in the night sky was slightly shattered but bright. Lu Rong stood under the eaves of the corridor, tilting his head slightly, as if he could see the cold moonlight.
"Third Master, I will give you a gift?"
Lu Mingyu's eldest maid, Qiu Yuan, lowered her head and asked. The third master was blind. Mo Zhu didn't come with him tonight and asked the third master to go back to the room by himself. Qiu Yuan was not very relieved.
"No need, you take good care of the fourth girl." Lu Rong's voice was calm, as usual, and he instructed the maid here. Lu Rong walked forward along the corridor without any haste, and the regular sound of bamboo sticks touching the ground was his only companion. Longan and nectar looked at each other, and their eyes were filled with regret. Why did the third master and his wife become like this?
Lu Rong didn't understand either, but after hearing his daughter's words, he decided to take a step back. Since his wife didn't like Mo Zhu, he found someone for Mo Zhu. He couldn't keep getting cold with his wife because of a maid.
"The Third Master is back?" Mo Zhu was waiting in front of the yard. Seeing that his master was back, Mo Zhu quickly met with a lantern. He looked at his master anxiously and confirmed that he had no signs of falling. Mo Zhu felt relieved and asked in a low voice: "Third Master, is the Fourth Girl okay?"
Lu Rong nodded, "Did you see the lady?"
Mo Zhu's face changed slightly. It was the first time that the couple had a big fight over her tonight that the third master took the initiative to inquire about his wife. Recalling the situation when Xiao came back just now, Mo Zhu observed Lu Rong's expression and said, "Well, I came back two quarters of an hour ago, and it seems that I was not very happy... Third master, in fact, the wife has been busy taking care of the fourth girl recently, and it is quite hard. If she has any omissions, please take care of her more?"
In terms of age, Mo Zhu is four years older than Lu Rong. He was the maid whom the old man Lu Zhan personally selected for his son. In addition to being as careful as his hands and feet, his voice was gentle. In Lu Zhan's opinion, if his son is blind, his ears will be more sensitive. If he chooses a bad voice, wouldn't his son suffer more?
Once a person's voice is gentle, it is easy to trust.
Lu Rong never doubted Mo Zhu's loyalty to him. When he was just blind, the maids around him changed almost every day, and only Mo Zhu served him the best. He didn't ask any questions, but he ordered them all. He had already made up his mind to arrange Mo Zhu to leave the mansion, but now when Mo Zhu spoke for Xiao, Lu Rong suddenly felt a strong guilt in his heart.
It is natural for a maid to serve his master, but over the past ten years, he has feelings for Mo Zhu, which has nothing to do with men and women, and it is more like a kind of family affection. Mo Zhu is 29 years old, and noble girls get married when they get married for fifteen or sixteen, and the maids around him will look for others. Few people who are as old as Mo Zhu are still a maid. Lu Rong once proposed to find a husband for Mo Zhu, but Mo Zhu said he was worried that others would serve him and was willing to be an old maid. When his wife came in, she was angry because Mo Zhu was not bad at all.
Now that he suddenly drove her away, his wife was so happy, Mo Zhu, how disappointed?
"Third Master?"
Mo Zhu's confusing voice came from his ears. Lu Rong came back to his senses. After thinking for a while, he said a little tiredly: "You go back to your room first, I'll go see your wife."
The matter what his daughter told me was too much involved, so he had to discuss it with his wife.
After saying that, Lu Rong walked towards the backyard with a bamboo stick. He didn't notice it and couldn't notice the complicated eyes in Mo Zhu's eyes behind him.
In the backyard, Xiao was not asleep, but asked the maid to turn off the lights inside and outside.
The meaning of thanking the guests behind closed doors is very obvious, but unfortunately Lu Rong couldn't see them. He came to the door of the main hall with a familiar way, "Have you sleepy?"
Bitan bit his lip and looked at another eldest maid from Xiao, Qiuyue.
Qiuyue was both pity and resentful to the blind third master, and blamed him for neglecting his wife for Mo Zhu, but she still hoped that the couple would let go of their past grudges. In addition, the wife's meaning was very obvious tonight, Qiuyue said less enthusiastically: "Just about to rest, what's wrong with the third master?"
Lu Rong agreed, "You go and send it all over." He didn't mind Qiu Yue's attitude.
Qiuyue went to pass the message hypocritically.
Bitan stayed outside the door and secretly looked at the third master who was wearing a green robe like a banished immortal. How handsome, it was a pity that he was a blind man.

"What are you doing?"
In the inner room, Xiao lay with his back to the bed and asked lightly. It is also beneficial for her husband to be a blind man. There is no need to pay too much attention to common etiquette in front of him. Anyway, she sits upright or lying lazily, and it doesn't make any difference to him. "I'm sleepy, you have something to say."
Lu Rong sat on the chair beside the bed and smelled the unique fragrance of his wife again. He was satisfied and eager, and he couldn't help but miss the newlyweds when he was married. The couple shared the same bed. She lay on his chest and praised him for being beautiful, as if he was drunk. It was a sweet wife who only had a deep love and said sweet words.
"I, A Nuan doesn't understand some things, I want to ask you." Lu Rong whispered.
Xiao closed his eyes and added that his daughter had married.
Lu Rong was stupid. His daughters were actually married?
"Why is Chu Sui?" Because of his eyes, Lu Rong knew Chu Sui less than Xiao's family, and he wanted to know what Chu Sui was outstanding.
How could a dead man from Xiao know?
"A Nuan is shy, I didn't mention these to me." Regarding the major events of her daughter's marriage, Xiao slowly sat up and said in a deep voice: "No matter what, A Nuan's marriage to the Chu family will cause death. This time we must consider it carefully. It is best to change the family. Even if it is Chu Sui, we must check the family's various grievances before agreeing to the marriage."
Lu Rong nodded and looked at the edge of the bed, "Don't worry, whether Ah Yun or A Nuan, I will protect them this time."
Lu Rong had a sister of a mother, named Lu Yun, who was the aunt who died of a concubine who entered the palace and died of a difficult delivery in Lu Mingyu.
Xiao lowered his eyes and had a moment of impulse, wanting to tell Lu Rong that she was actually dead, wanting to see what Lu Rong would look like.
But she was sensible enough to swallow the words back, "Is there anything wrong? It's getting late."
Under the sleeves, Lu Rong clenched his hands, on one side was a loyal servant who had served him for more than ten years, and on the other side was a wife who had children for him. If he had to let him down...
"Xianxian, Mo Zhu came to the Lu family to serve me at the age of fifteen. For so many years, I have worked hard without any credit. I want to wait until my eyes are gone and choose a good person for her." He raised his head, Lu Rong looked at his wife's direction and said, "Xianxian, it's not that I don't believe you, but I don't want others to talk nonsense behind my back."
He trusts his wife's mind and leaves the matter to his wife, and his wife will definitely find a good family for Mo Zhu, but Lu Rong doesn't want people to talk about his wife's wife who can't tolerate the maids around him. If he had arranged it himself, others would also arrange it.
Xiao looked at him unexpectedly. This man was willing to give up his good maid?
As if you could see her thoughts, Lu Rong said sincerely: "Xianxian, you are the wife of my mediator, and I want to live a good life with you."
Xiao stared at him. She believed that Lu Rong was sincere in asking for peace, but she was still unhappy.
Is Lu Rong really willing to give up Mo Zhu? No, if he could do both, he would continue to keep Mo Zhu to serve him. He proposed to marry Mo Zhu out because he felt that Xiao Xianxian could not tolerate a maid. Lu Rong compromised for the sake of the harmony of the couple and gave up his loyal maid. In the future, Mo Zhu left, it would become a thorn in her husband's heart. Maybe one day the couple quarreled, this thorn would appear and become a weapon for the husband to accuse her.
Xiao didn't like Mo Zhu because she was jealous of her husband's protection of Mo Zhu everywhere, but because Mo Zhu was too determined and wanted to control the front yard.
It is because I have been serving Lu Rong for so long that I regard myself as the hostess in the front yard, right?
If it were any wife, she wouldn't like such a maid.
If Mo Zhu was peaceful, she hated Mo Zhu out of jealousy. At this time, her husband promised to send Mo Zhu away, Xiao would be very satisfied and would happily pull Lu Rong to the bed to reward him. But Mo Zhu was restless, and Xiao Xianxian was not a simple jealous woman. Lu Rong's desire for peace was true, but he looked down on her.
"Why should Mo Zhu marry out?"
Xiao walked out of bed and sat affectionately on his lap before Lu Rong was frightened and ready to get up, holding his neck with both hands. Lu Rong was stiff all over, and his wife's soft body, the pleasant body smell on her body, and her coquettish tone all stimulated him. His hands trembled faintly, wanting to hug his wife, but he was afraid that he would misunderstand.
"San Master, do you think I hate Mo Zhu?" Xiao leaned against the man's shoulder, whispered gently, and asked and answered himself, "Actually, I don't hate her. She took good care of you for so many years. I sincerely thank her. I just envied her to serve you in close proximity, but I can't do it as a wife..."
So that's what my wife thinks?
Lu Rong could no longer hold it back and hugged her tightly with both hands, "Xianxian, I don't want to let you do that, it's not just that she is not allowed to do it..."
"Wife takes care of her husband, how could it be wronged?" Xiao said resentfully.
Lu Rong pursed his lips, not knowing how to explain it. The more he cared about the person, the less he wanted to show his incompetent side in front of her.
Xiao didn't care much about the answer. She sighed and her voice became relaxed again, "Fortunately, A Nuan is lucky. When A Nuan cures you, the third master can see you. Mo Zhu is just an ordinary maid. Drink tea and water. As long as the third master stops being particularly particular to her, how can I be jealous of her?"
What she was dissatisfied with from beginning to end was that her husband was blinded by Mo Zhu's eyes, which made her jealous. Mo Zhu's appearance was not qualified enough.
The misunderstanding was clarified, and there was no need to rush the old man next to him to go against his conscience. Lu Rong was surprised and happy and quickly assured his wife, "Xianxian, don't worry, wait until my eyes are gone, only she can't do to me, nothing you can't do."
She wouldn't know how much he wanted to see him pick up clothes for her and pick up food for him.
"Xianxian..." With hope in his eyes, his wife forgave him. The longing that had been suppressed for many years had a catharsis. Lu Rong trembled and held his wife's cheek and lowered her head to kiss.
Xiao looked at the handsome face of the man above his head, his eyes changed and he endured it.
For his face, for his sake, he still has medicine to save.
The long-lost movement gradually came from the inner room. Qiuyue laughed secretly outside, and she was a little shy. Bitan looked at the window of the upper room, and looked hard to tell in the dark. In the front yard, Mo Zhu stood alone at the door, waiting for a long time, but she did not wait for her third master to come back. It was the third day, and Mo Zhu finally gave up. He turned around and saw her shadow stretched by the moonlight on the ground.
