After dinner, Liu Qingqing used her faint eyes to force Lu Heng, who was about to raise his arms and wash the dishes, to stay at the dinner table. Then, a faint smile appeared on the woman's serious face.
"Uncle..." It was not a coquettish tone, but a genuine address. Liu Qingqing said while washing the dishes.
"Well, what's going on!" Lu Heng looked at the book under the dim light. Hearing Liu Qingqing's words, he put down the book and replied with a smile.
"I think I've seen that golden fork somewhere before!" Liu Qingqing stopped what she was doing, turned her head and looked at Lu Heng, pursed her lips, and had a cute ghostly smile on her pretty face.
Lu Heng was stunned.
"It looks like the one my uncle bought when I was shopping a few years ago!" Liu Qingqing turned her head and murmured while washing the dishes.
This was a weird guess, but it made Lu Heng, who had carefully prepared it, a little embarrassed.
"Well, this is actually like this..." Lu Heng coughed and prepared to explain.
However, Liu Qingqing had no intention of listening to his explanation. Instead, she said to herself: "At that time, my uncle said that I wanted to give it to a young lady from a certain family!"
When Lu Heng heard this, he realized something was wrong. He quickly stopped and said, "Hey, I didn't say that. I remember it was you who said it!"
Liu Qingqing burst into laughter, blinked at Lu Heng, and said with a smile: "Just think it was my concubine who said that!"
Lu Heng was speechless and said in his heart, what does it mean to take it as it is? This is what you said. But fortunately, I finally figured it out.
But before Lu Heng could calm down, he heard Liu Qingqing snickering and saying, "But I didn't send the gold hairpin away. Could it be that my uncle was rejected by that lady?"
Lu Heng was stunned.
Okay, it’s back again!
Lu Heng chuckled, picked up the fan on the table, unfolded it with a bang, and shook it twice. He thought he was trying to show off his talent, but he almost put out the light. He hurriedly threw the fan away to protect the flames.
"I, after all, am a talented person. I have a talent that is several stories high. If I hadn't fallen in love with that woman at first sight, how could something like this happen?" Although he said it seriously, Lu Heng himself felt that it was fake.
Liu Qingqing was amused by these words, and smiled, charmingly.
Lu Heng smiled, but in his mind he thought of a person he met on the road today. He put away the smile on his face and said to Liu Qingqing: "Did someone come to your house again today?"
Liu Qingqing nodded lightly and hummed softly: "The housekeeper came over and said some things, oh, those commonplace things. How did uncle know?"
Lu Heng smiled, picked up the firewood stick on the table, and lit the lamp. He shook it casually, extinguished the fire on the firewood stick and threw it away, and said with a smile: "I saw the Liu family's carriage on the road today. I
I think he came to our house!"
Liu Qingqing hummed softly, gathered up her skirt, glanced at Lu Heng, and sat down: "Uncle, do you also think that I am what those people outside say I am?"
During the Chinese New Year, what happened in the Liu Mansion was publicized by thoughtful people. Almost everyone knew about it, especially along the Qinhuai River, a place where Su Zhengwen often visited.
As the saying goes, good deeds never go out and bad deeds travel thousands of miles. In this era of lack of entertainment, the short gossips of parents are like spies after dinner. Moreover, people often spread rumors. It is a small thing in the beginning, but in the end, it makes people feel uncomfortable after hearing it.
Tomorrow is the end of the world.
The incident that happened during the Chinese New Year. After people spread rumors and rumors, the situation now formed is actually very bad for a weak woman.
Those neighbors who originally had a good relationship with the Lu family looked at Liu Qingqing a little strangely in the past few days. They also stayed away from each other, for fear that the rumored woman would bring some bad luck to them.
However, even if the situation is so bad, Liu Qingqing still looks as calm as water. She just spends less time going out on weekdays. Most of the time, she sits at home and works as a female celebrity.
Although Liu Qingqing always seemed to be the relegated fairy who didn't care about anything in front of Lu Heng. However, Lu Heng still saw helplessness and sadness in her red eyes several times.
Originally, Lu Heng had planned to ask some time ago. But then he thought about it and decided to wait until after her birthday.
Today, I met the Liu family's carriage again on the street. Through the window, I saw the sinister expression on the Liu family's butler's face sitting in the carriage, which prompted Lu Heng to finally make this decision.
Looking at Liu Qingqing's calm side face, a crystal teardrop slipped down. Lu Heng shook his head and smiled, spread his hands and said, "Some time ago, my sister-in-law's slap still hurts. Tell me, do I believe you or those people?"
Where’s the boring gossip?”
Liu Qingqing smiled and wiped away the tears on her face. She seemed to remember Lu Heng's Meng Lang behavior some days ago, and the clean slap she threw out. Her pretty face blushed slightly, and there was a hint of emotion in her tone.
A trace of shyness: "Then I can only blame you Meng Lang, you deserve it!"
Seeing that the other party's heart knot was finally relieved, Lu Heng also breathed a sigh of relief. He turned on the lights a little brighter and fiddled with the abacus on the table randomly. The abacus made a crackling sound, and Lu Heng's somewhat deep voice also followed.
rise.
"Sister-in-law, what are you going to do? I mean, what are you going to do about the current situation?"
Lu Heng fiddled with the abacus, looked at Liu Qingqing with a smile, and asked lightly.
Liu Qingqing's pretty face had a hint of sadness, she lowered her eyebrows and shook her head: "I don't even know!"
Lu Heng rubbed his temples, patted his forehead, and said with a smile: "Haha, maybe my question was a little too general!" After a moment of silence, Lu Heng suddenly pulled the abacus in his hand. There was a snap and the sound of the abacus was heard.
After coming down, Lu Heng turned his head and stared at Liu Qingqing with a stern look. He said calmly: "Let's make a hypothesis. If one day, the Liu family declines and the situation is serious. Will my sister-in-law help?"
After saying this, Lu Heng gently pushed the abacus with his fingers, and quietly looked at Liu Qingqing, who had her head lowered, waiting for her answer.
The expression on Liu Qingqing's face changed, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Lu Heng didn't speak, just looked at him quietly, waiting for the answer to the question.
"How serious is it?" Liu Qingqing raised her head and asked softly with some worry in her eyes.
"Seize the family and exterminate the clan!" Lu Heng replied lightly. At the same time, he spread an abacus on the table with a flick of his fingers. The crisp voice echoed in the quiet room, making it particularly clear.
Liu Qingqing's delicate body trembled slightly. She raised her head and looked at the normal-looking Lu Heng who was fiddling with the abacus in front of her. A strange look flashed in her beautiful eyes, as well as a hint of fear.
In the room, the candle flames were like beans. The wind outside made the window paper flutter. Occasionally, the wind blew in, and the candle flames swayed violently.
