Chapter 336: A World of Controversy
Chapter 22
"Second Miss, we are here."
Mo Bing was the first to jump off the carriage, then stretched out his hand to help Lu Songli get down.
Lu Songli looked at the Xu family in front of her. The Xu family had the layout of a small farmyard, with a fence about five feet high blocking the view of most outsiders.
The Lu family really has no idea of marrying a daughter from a high family or a wife from a low family. Her eldest brother married the daughter of a medicinal materials merchant in a town under the jurisdiction of Chang'an City, and the Xu family's family background is also not high. From this, we can also see that her parents love their children.
, it’s all thanks to her father.
The Xu family's hometown is from Yitao Town on the edge of Chang'an. Mr. Xu was handsome when he was young. When he came to Chang'an to buy medicine for his mother, the old man who killed the pig fell in love with him and married his only daughter to him.
With the help of his father-in-law, Mr. Xu settled down in the capital, and then with his guidance, he entered the government office as a clerk, and was later promoted to the rank of custodian. Now that Mr. Xu is older, he is also serving as a custodian.
He resigned from his position as director.
The eldest son of the Xu family inherited Mr. Xu's job and is now an honorable prison guard. The second son took over his mother's pig-killing business and lived a good life. The third son of the Xu family was also her brother-in-law, and the family always provided for her.
He studied, and later after getting married, he opened a private school with the support of the Xu family and the Lu family.
The three sons are all making money, and the family still has about 20 acres of land in the suburbs that are rented to others for cultivation. The grain brought in every year can basically cover the needs of the whole family, so the days of the Xu family are also counted in their area.
Mo Bing was just about to knock on the door, but he didn't realize that the door was ajar. The people inside probably heard the noise outside, so they opened the door and walked out.
It was the old lady of the Xu family. When she saw them, she quickly greeted them, "His aunt, are you here? Come in quickly!"
Old Mrs. Xu looked like a girl, with a somewhat rough outline and strong strength. She opened the door and removed the threshold to make it easier for their carriage to enter.
When Lu Songli arrived at Xu's house, she received a warm welcome.
Today, Mr. Xu, Mrs. Xu, Sister-in-law Xu, Second Sister-in-law Xu and her brother-in-law are all at home. The two sisters-in-law helped Mrs. Xu greet themselves, and Mr. Xu and her brother-in-law came out of the house to say hello to her.
A group of boy dolls lined up from tallest to shortest, and the round-headed children shouted to her in unison, "Hello, aunt~~"
Oh my god, who can stand this long stretch of coquettishness?
Lu Songli quickly took out the candied haws she had just bought on the road and distributed them to the little ones. When she got the last three-headed little bean sprouts, she hesitated. When she saw the children eagerly waiting for the one in her hand,
She shared the candied haws with him, and she relented. She gave him the candied haws and explained, "You can only eat it by licking it and biting it. You can't stuff the whole thing into your mouth, you know?"
"Okay~"
"Why don't you thank your aunt?"
"Thank you, aunt~"
"Okay, okay, you go and have fun, don't bother your aunt."
After Mrs. Xu welcomed the person into her home, she kept bringing out good things from the house to entertain her.
Lu Songli asked Mo Bing to give the gift prepared by her mother to the old lady of the Xu family.
Old Mrs. Xu: "My mother-in-law is too polite."
Mr. Xu asked her parents if they were healthy and then went about his business. After Mrs. Xu said hello to Lu Songli, she went to the butcher's shop. Her brother-in-law also wanted to go to the private school for a visit.
After the rest of the crowd left, Mrs. Xu happily took Lu Songli's hand, talked to her affectionately, and kept urging her to eat.'
Lu Songli had no choice but to pick up a piece of rice cake and eat it slowly. She was not actually hungry, but she was a little scared when she saw the old lady eager to feed her herself.
The little girl is iconic, but not too eye-catching. The more Mrs. Xu looks at it, the more she likes it. This kind of appearance is just suitable for their Xu family's family background. If the third daughter-in-law can give birth to a granddaughter like this, she can dream of it.
Wake up with a smile.
At this time, a little Douding came in and said, "Grandma, Mom asked me to lead the way for my aunt."
Lu Songli recognized from her memory that this little guy was her eldest sister's eldest son, who was also her eldest nephew.
"It's Brother Sheng, okay, you can take your aunt to your mother." Old Mrs. Xu let her go readily.
The enthusiasm of Mrs. Xu and Sister-in-law Xu and Sister-in-law Xu were overwhelming. When her eldest sister called her, Lu Songli sneaked into her eldest sister's room as if she was running away.
Lu Songli didn't know that after her family's carriage set off for the Xu family, a carriage with the Zhao family's logo engraved in a secret place was waiting at a corner of Huaihua Street for a long time.
"Sister Yu Tan, are you sure we can wait for Lu Songli when we stop here?" Guo Yan poked her head out of the carriage and asked this question several times. She had been waiting for a long time, and she was getting impatient.
Zhao Yutan nodded and said with certainty, "This is the only way to go from Chongwen Street to Baodingfang, and it is also the nearest way. She used to take this road." But they waited for a long time, but they never waited for Lu.
Song pear.
"Cousin, thank you for accompanying me on this trip."
Guo Yan waved her hands in panic, "Cousin, there's no need to thank me specifically."
They might have arrived late, Zhao Yutan suspected. But didn't they say she only went out in the afternoon? Could it be that the news was wrong?
"Cousin, the restaurant in front is not bad. Why don't you go there and have a bite to eat first? If I see someone later, how about someone call you in front?" Zhao Yutan suggested understandingly.
Guo Yan was moved.
After sending her to the restaurant in front, Zhao Yutan thought for a while and asked someone to go to Baodingfang.
The person who inquired about the information came back and brought her a definite message. At this time, Lu Songli had indeed arrived at Xu's house.
"Miss, are we still waiting?" Hongdou asked.
Zhao Yutan gritted his teeth and said, "Wait!"
Zhao Yutan didn't know that their conversation was watched by people on the second floor of the restaurant diagonally in front of them.
Xu family
Lu Songyun was in confinement, and the door and windows were closed, fearing that the mother would be exposed to the wind. Therefore, Lu Songli felt that the room was a bit dark after entering, but she had good eyesight, and at a glance she saw Leung sitting on the bedside wrapped in flowers.
Her eldest sister wore a turban. Seeing her rosy face and plump figure, Lu Songli knew that she was recovering well after giving birth.
Lu Songyun was holding the baby while breastfeeding, and motioned for her sister to sit over.
Lu Songli sat on a stool near the head of the bed, making it easier for the two of them to talk. After she sat down, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's wrong with you?"
"My mother-in-law is so enthusiastic."
Haha, Lu Songyun was happy when she heard this, and then looked her up and down, "With your little appearance, you look very much in line with my mother-in-law's dream daughter."
Her sister is wearing a cute makeup today, her hair is styled into a bun, and her bangs only reach the tip of her eyebrows. She doesn’t have many jewelry, which is simple but not rude. Coupled with her girlish face with a little baby fat, she looks cute and cute.
.
Her mother-in-law has a good color. This color does not differentiate between men and women. As long as you are good-looking, you will get preferential treatment from her mother-in-law. I heard that after her father-in-law and her mother-in-law got married, in addition to killing pigs every day, the housework was heavy and dirty.
All the work was done by her mother-in-law. After their three daughters-in-law got married, her mother-in-law also loved them and treated them better than her three sons. All because they were better-looking than their husbands.
