Chapter 337
Previously, the eldest princess proposed to keep Ah Xi in the upper courtyard, but Lu Wan thought it was a last-minute idea.
But now that she saw that she had prepared the room early, she was shocked to realize that her grandmother had already made a decision to keep Ah Xi in the upper courtyard.
Why is she doing this?
For a time, many questions flashed through Lu Wan's mind.
Lu Jizhong saw her standing in a daze and scolded impatiently: "Why, you still don't feel relieved that your mother is taking care of him personally?"
He scolded me again: "My mother is kind-hearted and didn't pursue you for escaping from the house privately. She also allowed you to enter the house again. You are ungrateful. Are you still thinking of disobeying your elders? You are really a wolf-hearted person."
Lu Wan's eyes turned cold.
Even Lu Jizhong couldn't wait. It seemed that Ah Xi's incident was far beyond her expectation...
She withdrew for the time being, not thinking about anything else, and went to see her brother first.
Ah Xi's room is arranged next to the eldest princess, and the interior is full of luxury.
But in Lu Wan's eyes, this place was no different from the golden bird cages on the corridor.
"Axi, are you feeling better?"
When Lu Wan went in, Ah Xi was sitting on the bed and Lan Ying was feeding him water.
"Sister, I'm fine."
Ah Xi was afraid that she would worry, so he smiled at her and said, "Don't worry about me."
He looked so scary just now, how could Lu Wan not be worried.
"Axi, have you ever eaten peanuts before?"
Ah Xi's dark eyes flashed slightly and he shook his head: "No."
Lu Wan hugged him tightly in her arms and said with lingering fear: "Ah Xi, please remember what my sister said, don't eat peanuts again in the future, you must remember it..."
Ah Xi snuggled into her arms and nodded obediently without asking anything: "I remember."
Lu Wan whispered to Lan Ying again. Lan Ying was shocked, but she understood.
"Ah Xi, why did you agree to stay just now?"
Lu Wan felt heartbroken at the thought of leaving his younger brother alone in this den of tigers and wolves.
"Grandma spoke in person. If I refuse, she will be angry. If she doesn't punish me, she will vent her anger on my sister. I don't want to see anything happen to my sister..."
Lu Wan was startled, but she didn't expect that he would actually think of going up to this level.
Yes, my grandmother has always said it true. She was already unhappy because she escaped from the house. If he disobeys her again, she will not punish her brother who just returned home. This anger will inevitably fall on her head.
"But if you stay here, I won't be able to see you all the time, and..."
Lu Wan didn't explain what she said out of the corner of her eye. Ah Xi was too young after all, she was afraid of scaring him.
If he shows cowardice here, his grandmother will become suspicious.
Ah Xi's black eyes flashed brightly, she held Lu Wan's hand and said with a smile: "Sister, don't worry, I'm so old, I can take care of myself, and besides, Sister Lan Ying is here, I will be fine, you say hello every day
Can't you also see me when the time comes?"
As of now, that's all it can do.
Lu Wan gave Lan Ying a few more words, and just in time the orchid grass was boiled and the medicine was brought in. She fed Ah Xi the medicine and watched him fall asleep, and then was urged by Aunt Jin to leave the upper courtyard.
Seeing her looking back three times, looking very worried, Grandma Jin smiled and said, "Young lady, are you so worried that we can't take good care of the young master?"
Lu Wan suppressed the reluctance in her heart and forced a smile: "Mommy, I was joking. It's just that Ah Xi has been by my side these past few months. I'm used to it. Leaving him suddenly makes me feel uneasy..."
Aunt Jin said: "I understand what the girl is thinking, but if you think about it, this may not be a good thing. At this age, the girl will get married one day, and the young master is still so young. If the girl gets married and leaves the house,
He is alone. If his grandmother is around to take care of him, shouldn't the girl feel more at ease?"
Hearing this, Lu Wan was shocked and suddenly thought of something...
Back at Qinghuai Pavilion, Qiu Luo has come back and is waiting in the room.
"Girl, I've checked and found out that all the walnut sauce served tonight has ground peanuts added to it. Even the leftovers in the kitchen are also in it."
Because Lu Wan was thinking about something, she almost didn't eat anything at the dinner table just now, and her bowl of walnut dew was untouched.
Judging from what Qiu Luo found out now, it doesn't seem like someone deliberately added peanut powder into Ah Xi's bowl.
Moreover, apart from her, not even he himself knew that Ah Xi was allergic to peanuts, and the eldest princess and Ye would never know about it either.
So is everything just a coincidence?
"But that bowl of beef with celery was specially made by the eldest princess and was placed in front of the young master on purpose."
Lu Wan had already thought of this.
Because everyone in the Lu family is allergic to celery, this dish has never been served on the Lu family's dinner table. Today it suddenly appeared on the table and was specially placed in front of Ah Xi. The meaning is obvious.
But why did grandma not look relaxed but solemn after hearing what Shen Zhi said?
Lu Wan leaned against the window, concentrating on the eldest princess's subtle expressions just now, carefully studying them in her heart.
Gradually, she sensed a different meaning - her grandmother's expression at that time seemed to be that she was not happy to hear that Ah Xi was from the Lu family?!
For a moment, Lu Wan was frightened by his speculation.
But when I think about her series of abnormal reactions after meeting Ah Xi, she repeatedly stopped Ye from questioning Ah Xi's identity, seemingly not caring whether his identity was true or false.
But since you don't care, why did you arrange that plate of food to test Ah Xi?
What on earth is she planning?
"Mom, since he is allergic to celery and presumably of Lu family blood, why does mother want to keep him with you? What is mother thinking?"
In the upper courtyard, Lu Jizhong, who was also puzzled, asked his mother who was looking up.
The face of the eldest princess was shrouded in the faint fragrance mist, making it difficult to see clearly.
She laughed mockingly: "From the moment King Chen returns to the capital, whose blood is flowing on him, and whose child is it, does it matter?"
Lu Jizhong's eyes trembled slightly, "Mother, this matter is too risky. If we are discovered, I'm afraid..."
The eldest princess said coldly: "But back then, King Chen secretly returned to Beijing and did go to Cangcui Mountain. Have you forgotten that when he was injured, he lived in our Zhuangzi? You also went to the Zhuangzi to pay homage to him in person
he."
"Then Meng was always at Zhuangzi back then."
"And this time Princess Chen recognized Aning as her goddaughter. She said she wanted to repay the kindness she had received back then, but in fact she just knew that this child was coming back and took the opportunity to get close to our family."
Having said this, the eldest princess glared at Lu Jizhong in annoyance.
"When you went to Zhuangzi, did you have sex with the Meng family?"
As long as the son did not touch the Meng family, the Meng family child would definitely belong to King Chen.
Lu Jizhong blushed: "It's been so long, do I still remember it?"
He seemed to have been to her house, but he didn't seem to have accomplished anything.
He only remembered that after the news came from Zhuangzi, he followed his mother's order and quietly went to Zhuangzi to pay homage to King Chen, taking Ye Hongyu with him for a private meeting...
