Chapter 40 040
Wuyue nodded clearly and said to Xiangying: "I see, you can go down, Miss, it's enough for me to serve you."

"Yes." Xiang Ying responded, and backed away with the copper basin behind her.

Wuyue walked into the house, put the food box in her hand on the table, and brought out a large bowl of iced mung bean soup inside.

"Miss, this mung bean soup slave has been frozen in ice for a long time, but it's cool, you will pay for it."

Hearing this, Lu Xiang put down the embroidery work in his hand, took the blue and white bowl in Hong Zhuang's hand, took a sip, instantly felt cool, and sighed comfortably: "It's a pity that ice cubes are so rare, if you drink it every day in summer What a delight to have a cold bowl of mung bean soup."

Wuyue smiled and said: "Miss, don't be greedy for the cold, it's not summer yet, this is just for you to satisfy your appetite. It's not good to eat too much ice."

After that, Wuyue took out a note from her sleeve and handed it to Lu Xiang: "Miss, look-"

Lu Xiang put down the bowl in his hand and took the note in Wuyue's hand.

"The servant passed by Xia Qing when she went to the kitchen. This is what she put into the servant's hand when no one was paying attention." Wuyue said.

Lu Xiang looked at the contents of the note, her eyebrows slowly raised, and then she crumpled the note into a ball and instructed Wuyue: "Burn it."

"Yes, ma'am."

Wuyue walked aside, picked up the fire stick and lit the fire, burning the ball of paper to ashes.

Behind him, Lu Xiang's cold and ethereal voice sounded, it sounded like a yellow warbler coming out of the valley, but it seemed to be far away in the sky.

"Xia Qing said that she accompanied Lu Yue to Aunt Fang's house two days ago. She saw Aunt Fang happily counting a box of silver and a box of jewelry. I heard that someone asked Aunt Fang to do something."

Seeing that the note was burnt, Wuyue turned to look at Lu Xiang: "It's not surprising, the master is the prefect, and Yangning City has a high position. Someone asked the master to do things for fear of being rejected by the master, so he took the road of Fang Yiniang."

Often times, it's easier to get things done when the woman in the backyard blows the pillow wind.

Lu Xiang re-bowled the mung bean soup and drank it, with a stern expression on his gentle eyebrows: "That's what I said, but relatively speaking, Auntie Fang is not as pampered as Aunt Liu, if you really want to ask your father, then Would people act rashly without inquiring about it? If you ask Concubine Liu, things will be easier to do."

This made her a little weird, but she couldn't catch her head and continued: "Anyway, Wuyue, you let Xia Qing stare at Aunt Fang more, and report it in time if there is a situation, if not, let her randomly Convenience."

Wuyue nodded heavily: "Yes, Miss." After speaking, she took out a sticker from her body and handed it to Lu Xiang: "Miss, this is an invitation from the Governor's Mansion, and the Chu Mansion will hold a banquet later in the day. , Miss, please come to the manor for a gathering."

Lu Xiang took the post and flipped through it at will. The post was posted by Dudu Chu's wife.

No matter where they are, such gatherings of ladies and gentlemen are always endless. Today's one and tomorrow's, except for birthday parties, there are also countless large and small banquets on weekdays. This is the social circle of the upper class. There are various Comparing and clinging.

Ladies and ladies who seldom go out all day, are using this large and small banquet to meet all kinds of people, and at this kind of banquet, there are also many ladies who try to cater to the ladies who please their husbands and bosses. When the relationship is good, it can help a lot when it comes to critical moments.

Because Lu Youping has not yet married a regular wife, there are only a few concubines in the house, so Mrs. Ling invited Lu Xiang and other young ladies and Qiao Jingru.

When Lu Xiang walked out of the gate of Lu Mansion, Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Fang and Mrs. Lin led their daughters to wait at the door. When they saw Lu Xiang coming out, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Fang showed impatient expressions on their faces. .

Aunt Lin gave her a slight smile and said, "Miss San, I will trouble you to take care of Qiao'er today."

Lu Xiang said: "Concubine Lin is very polite. It's my first time to go to a banquet. I don't think anything will go wrong if I don't walk around with Mama Wen."

The old lady was worried about the little ones, so she asked Mama Wen to accompany her.

Aunt Lin hit a soft nail and smiled shyly.

"Since the third lady is here, hurry up and get on the carriage. We can't keep the host's family waiting for a long time, or we will lose our courtesy." Liu Shi well concealed the disgust in her eyes, stepped forward and pulled Lu Xiang affectionately, smiling. said.

She drew delicate eyebrows and smiled softly, like a breeze supporting a willow, indescribably gentle.

Lu Xiang gave Xu Shi a light glance, and took out his hand without a trace: "Liu Yiniang said, but it's still early, so there will be no delay, Liu Yiniang is overthinking it."

Liu Shi looked impatient, and at first glance, it seemed that he could not wait to fly to Chu Mansion immediately to get close to those noble ladies.

If her pearl can gain a firm foothold among the real celebrities and have a good relationship with them, then their mother and daughter will have more confidence to stand in the Lu Mansion.

Liu's family was not at all embarrassed by Lu Xiang's estrangement. She looked back at Lu Mingzhu and saw Lu Mingzhu walking over with a smile, her hands on Lu Xiang's arms, and she swayed coquettishly: "Three Sister, let's take a carriage."

The corners of Lu Xiang's mouth twitched a few times, wanting to stay away from Lu Mingzhu, but unexpectedly Lu Mingzhu was so powerful, like an octopus clinging to her.

He just pulled Lu Xiang into the carriage.

Wuyue rolled her eyes from the back, if it wasn't for the fact that the young lady at the gate couldn't do too much, how could the fourth young lady be pulled away.

Along the way, Lu Mingzhu kept talking to Lu Xiang as if he had never had a conflict with Lu Xiang. Lu Xiang leaned on the cushion in a bored manner and looked at Lu Mingzhu, who was beaming in front of him, with clear and deep eyes like jade. The pool is bottomless and full of weird flavors.

Is this Lu Mingzhu's head caught in the door or what?Even though the two of them had already torn their faces, how could she still act so casually?
Lu Xiang suddenly felt goosebumps crawling all over his body.

Soon, the carriage arrived at Chu Mansion, and Lu Xiang got off quickly, not wanting to listen to Lu Mingzhu's nonsense at all.

At the entrance of Chu Mansion at this time, many gorgeous carriages had already stopped, and the door was like a city.

The gate of vermilion lacquer, glazed eaves.Two majestic stone lions stand at both ends of the stone steps of the house, majestic and lifelike.

Red pillars and green tiles, carved beams and painted buildings.

A servant walked up to them, saluted respectfully, and then asked, "May I ask if she is the lady of the Lu Zhifu family?"

Lu Xiang nodded with a smile. Just as he was about to say yes, Lu Mingzhu suddenly said, "It's us."

The servant didn't know whether he was a direct descendant or a concubine in front of him, but after hearing Lu Mingzhu's words, his demeanor and demeanor became a little more humble, he half bent, and made a gesture of invitation to Lu Xiang and the others: "Everyone, please, my family is here. Madam has been waiting for a long time."
