Chapter 306 The mantis catches the cicada and the oriole behind
Lu Yunhong glanced at Xu Xiao who couldn't wait, and sneered: "When Xu Jing was studying in Jinling, he failed the exam for a long time. For the sake of fame, he found someone to take the exam for him. And that person later joined Prince An, who was Huang Pei from Prince An's palace.
.”
"This incident is a disaster for the Xu family of the scholarly family. This is why Xu Jing is controlled by King An."
Xu Xiao's eyes widened in shock, and his heart was in turmoil.
He had guessed countless times that Xu Jing had touched someone he shouldn't have touched, but he never expected that it was because he was taking the exam.
This matter would be a disaster for ordinary officials, let alone the Xu family?
For such a big family, Xu Jing could not escape the blame for hundreds of deaths. No wonder, Xu Jing obeyed everything King An said and did not dare to disobey in the slightest.
"I will take care of this matter." Xu Xiao handed over his hand and thanked her sincerely.
However, Lu Yunhong just glanced at him and didn't say anything?
But that look made Xu Xiao feel that Lu Yunhong had given him a chance to change his ways, although he didn't know what the opportunity was?
But it was true that Lu Yunhong didn't seem to have any thoughts about him, because after Lu Yunhong finished speaking, he got up and left.
Moreover, he walked over the wall, his figure was as fast as the wind, and he disappeared in an instant.
Xu Xiao stared blankly and couldn't help but wonder, everyone underestimated Lu Yunhong's ability. Is he really a minister who needs to rely on the East Palace to recover?
Not necessarily?
On the contrary, like the eagle restrained by a rope, it was because of some scruples that it could not jump up and soar into the sky.
…
Before Lu Yunhong went out, Wang Xiu went to arrange a place for the grandson to live, but he was pestered by the grandson and asked her to tell a story.
The clingy great-grandson lay on her lap, listening to stories and falling asleep.
Lu Yunhong saw it from the window, then went back to his room and looked at his son sleeping in the cradle, and instantly felt dissatisfied.
Why did he and his son not enjoy such good treatment? Why should he give his son a cheap treatment?
So he simply went out to drink, hoping to be out of sight and out of mind, and take care of Xu Xiao's affairs.
When he came back, he found that his wife had put his son on the bed and occupied the place that originally belonged to him.
Good guy, when he came back after going out for a while, not only did his wife not look for him, she also let his son take his place.
Lu Yunhong angrily pushed open the door and entered the inner room. He saw Wang Xiu turning over and sitting up, looking at him coldly.
That look, not to mention how disgusting it was, it was true that there was a knife in his eyes.
Lu Yunhong stopped hastily and did not dare to go forward to fight.
But when he stopped, Wang Xiu didn't give him a good look.
Instead, he put on his shoes and stood up, dragging him into the open hall.
Wang Xiu said bluntly: "I gave you face, didn't I?"
Lu Yunhong quickly denied: "No, no..."
Wang Xiu roared again: "No? No, you left me alone at home to take care of the child??"
"And what you looked like just now, do you want to cause trouble for me?"
Lu Yunhong quickly cried out: "How dare I? I thought you were asleep just now, so I walked a little heavier."
Wang Xiucai didn't believe it, but when she saw the guilty Lu Yunhong, she still said angrily: "Where did you go just now?"
Seeing that she gave her a chance to confess, Lu Yunhong quickly said: "I was just worried that King An would go to Xu Xiao to trouble him, so I went out to take a look."
But after he said this, he accidentally burped.
Wang Xiu suddenly lost his temper, grabbed him by the collar and said, "We're going to see Xu Xiao, right? Then why did we drink together?"
Lu Yunhong looked helpless and explained with a wry smile: "I drank the wine alone. I brought the sweet-scented osmanthus wine from our house, and the cook knew about it. I didn't go out and drink randomly."
Wang Xiu continued to scold: "You know that your grandson has entered the house and you still go out. Do you think I am not busy enough?"
Lu Yunhong continued to shake his head. He suddenly realized that every time he tried to make trouble for Wang Xiu, he failed every time. He even angered Wang Xiu and taught him a lesson. It was really not worth the gain.
Wang Xiu got angry when he saw his innocent look, and continued to yell: "Originally, we could go to bed early tonight, but because I couldn't find you, I kept waiting for you to come back. It's fine now, the children are asleep
I just came back after I killed you, what use do I need from you?"
Speaking of this, Wang Xiu wanted to beat Lu Yunhong to death.
With his behavior towards Xu Xiao, would he be worried??
After Xu Xiao died, it would be fine if he didn't say sarcastic words.
Lu Yunhong heard her thoughts and touched his nose angrily.
He really didn't care about Xu Xiao's life or death, he just wanted to go out and get some fresh air.
But now that his wife was angry, Lu Yunhong put his arms around her and coaxed her, "I'm taking a break tomorrow. Just sleep well and I'll take care of them."
Wang Xiu was still unhappy and pushed Lu Yunhong away coldly.
Lu Yunhong continued to cling to him shamelessly and said: "I just thought you were coming back to accompany your grandson to sleep, so I went out. If I had known you would wait for me, I would not have gone out even if there was a rebellion outside.
.”
Wang Xiuleng sneered: "I don't know what you are thinking about. Anyway, next time you interfere with my rest, I will drive you to the study to sleep."
Lu Yunhong quickly said that he didn't dare anymore, and after a few words of coaxing, Wang Xiu's anger was calmed down.
Then Lu Yunhong went to wash up. After he finished washing, he found that his wife was sleeping on a small bed in the compartment. Although it was not spacious, it could still sleep two people if they squeezed in.
He lay down with a smile, and just reached out to his wife's waist upstairs. She turned around and leaned over, then found a comfortable position in his arms, smacked her lips, and said angrily: "I can't sleep even if you're not at home.
good."
Lu Yunhong felt soft, held her little hand, kissed it, and coaxed in a low voice: "I won't do it next time, go to sleep."
After hearing this, Wang Xiu fell into a deep sleep.
Lu Yunhong couldn't sleep. He held the person in his arms and thought about the memories that flashed through the day.
Is he afraid that he has overlooked something, and is he afraid that he has remembered something?
Those uncertain factors were affecting his judgment. Even though the person in his arms was so dependent on him, he still felt that he was wrapped in an uneasy feeling and it was difficult to break away.
Lu Yunhong sighed invisibly, and then hugged the person in his arms tighter.
…
The next day, Mrs. Zhang of the Xu family learned about Wang Xiu's treatment of Yao Yu, so she suggested that Xu Jing and his wife post a message asking Lu Yunhong and his wife to come to the house to talk about it.
First, I wanted to thank them for giving Xu Xiao face. After all, it was Xu Xiao who sent them.
Secondly, Xu Xiao is about to end. If he can continue to get Lu Yunhong's guidance, he must have a bright future.
After Xu Xiao entered the Xu family, he always followed the rules and did not bother anyone except for daily greetings.
As time passed, the Xu family members truly accepted him.
When Mrs. Zhang mentioned it this time, Mrs. Hu said, "My grandson is still living in the Lu Mansion. I don't know if the Lu family will refuse. In my opinion, why not spend some time together?"
Mrs. Zhang said: "It would be rude to invite you after a while. It doesn't matter, just send the post. If they accept it, we will prepare it. If they refuse, we will invite you on another day."
Mrs. Hu nodded slightly and quickly sent someone to deliver the post to the Lu family.
All this was expected by Lu Yunhong. He accepted the post when it was sent and said that he would take his grandson to the banquet.
The Xu family was naturally overjoyed and quickly began preparations. The banquet was scheduled for August 11th.
After King An learned the news, he was so happy that he quickly asked Xu Jing to post a message to the Zheng family.
He just wants to provide Zheng Sihan with a chance to see what Zheng Sihan can do?
If it is a useless chess piece, he will not waste Liu Qing. If it is useful... then Liu Qing can come in handy.
Not long after, Zheng Sihan received the message from the Xu family and was secretly happy, thinking that even God was helping her.
Little did he know...every move she made was being watched.
The mantis stalks the cicada while the oriole follows behind. What seems like a well-prepared banquet is actually just to lure the snake out of its hole.
