The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Chapter 88: Grown-up Chang Wei and Xiao Hua

Lu Yugang continued, "After Yan'er and I expressed our feelings to each other, I thought that it would be hard and tiring for Yan'er to follow me in the military camp without any status, and it was not a long-term solution. As the New Year is approaching, I thought about coming back to wish my adoptive father a happy new year and bringing Yan'er to meet him. I also asked him to help me and Yan'er be together."

After listening to Gu Yan'er and Lu Yugang's story, Lu Yi was very pleased that they were in love with each other. However, thinking that he and Gu Qingfeng had different positions in the court and had no private contact, this matter might be a little difficult to handle.

After thinking about it, Lu Yi said seriously: "Yu Gang, seeing that you can find someone you like, your godfather is naturally happy and will help you. But you also know that we have always been at odds with the Prime Minister's Mansion. Going to the Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage may be criticized. Are you mentally prepared for this?"

Lu Yugang: "Thank you for your help, foster father. I understand. But as long as I can marry Yan'er, I am not afraid of any difficulty. Tomorrow I will take Yan'er to the Prime Minister's Mansion to express my feelings to Uncle Gu."

Gu Yan'er: "Yan'er also thanks Uncle Lu for his help. Uncle, don't worry. My mother knows about Yu Gang and I. She supports me. With my mother mediating, my father won't make it too difficult for Yu Gang."

Lu Yi nodded to Gu Yan'er, "It's a rare thing for two people to fall in love with each other, and I'm naturally happy to see it happen. But it's too hasty to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion tomorrow. I'll ask Lao Wei to prepare and wait for three more days. I'll go with you on the 15th. Since you're asking for marriage sincerely, we should be fully prepared and show our sincerity."

Lu Yugang: "Father is right. I didn't think it through. Tomorrow is indeed too late. But what should we do with Yan'er these few days? Should she stay in our house or go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Lu Yi: "Let them live in Lingxi's yard in our house. Lingxi has been bored in our house for a long time and is almost bored. Let them keep her company and play for a few days."

Lu Yi was mainly afraid that Gu Yan'er would return to the Prime Minister's Mansion and change her mind after being lectured by Prime Minister Gu, thus causing more trouble.

Gu Yan'er was also afraid that she would be locked up after returning home, and it would be difficult for her to see Yu Gang at that time, so she hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, Uncle Lu, then I will stay in Lingxi Courtyard for a few days."

Lu Yi laughed and said, "Lingxi is a very noisy kid. You don't know who will bother whom if you go there."

"Now that the big things are basically settled, let's eat the food quickly. The food is getting cold."

Only then did the four of them begin to enjoy their meal properly.

After dinner, Lu Lingxi and Gu Yan'er went back to Lingxi Garden together. Lu Yugang stayed and talked with Lu Yi for a while before returning to his own yard.

When Lu Lingxi and Gu Yan'er returned to the gate of Lingxi Garden, Chang Wei and Xiaohua ran out excitedly to greet Lu Lingxi.

When he saw a stranger next to him, he immediately shouted "Woof woof woof!", scaring Gu Yan'er so much that she stepped back repeatedly.

Lu Lingxi stopped in front of Gu Yan'er and said to Chang Wei and Xiaohua, "Don't yell. She is Sister Gu, whom you met when you were young. She will be my sister-in-law in the future. We are a family. Don't scare her."

Chang Wei and Xiao Hua immediately quieted down, as if they realized they were wrong, and they lowered their heads and moved to the side to make way for them.

After Gu Yan'er calmed down, she looked around at the two dogs walking quietly on both sides of Lu Lingxi and said, "Are these the two puppies you brought to the tower? They have grown so big? I remember it was the black one, and it even peed on my cousin's outer robe, right?"

Lu Lingxi also remembered that funny scene and said with a smile: "Yes, the black one is Chang Wei, and the black and white one is Xiao Hua."

Gu Yan'er raised her right hand with her left hand and shook her right palm a few times, trying to greet the two: "Hello Chang Wei, hello Xiaohua."

After returning to the room, Lu Lingxi talked to Gu Yan'er for a long time, asking her what she had experienced during this period of time. The two chatted about everything under the sun, with endless things to say and neither of them felt sleepy at all.

Finally, Chunhong reminded her, "Miss, it's getting late. Go to bed early. Miss Gu has just come back from the border and must be exhausted. You should be more considerate and let her rest early. If we haven't finished talking, we can continue tomorrow."

Lu Lingxi: "Okay, Sister Gu, please sleep with me tonight."

Chunhong smiled and said like coaxing a child: "The master has sent someone to clean up Miss Gu's room. It's in the side room. Miss Gu will hear you if you call her from this room. Let Miss Gu have a good rest tonight and we can talk tomorrow."

Liu Lu interrupted at the right time: "That's right, Miss, your sleeping posture is so wild and uninhibited. Miss Gu may not be able to rest well if she sleeps in the same bed with you."

Lu Lingxi thought that what Liu Lu said made sense, so he turned around and said reluctantly: "Sister Gu, I'll take you to the next room to rest, and we'll talk tomorrow."

After Gu Yan'er nodded, Lu Lingxi took her hand and walked her to the next room. After watching her wash up and go to bed, he reluctantly closed the door and returned to his room.

Seeing how Lu Lingxi treated Gu Yan'er, Liu Lu teased, "If you didn't know, you would have thought that the person living next door was Miss Gu's lover. You are so reluctant to leave. I remember that you still resented Miss Gu for drugging you. Now you are so inseparable?"

Lu Lingxi waved his hand, "You are still young and don't understand. True friendship requires going through some things so that the emotions can be sublimated. Not only friendship, but all emotions in this world need to go through some things to be sublimated."

Liu Lu covered her mouth and laughed secretly: "Miss, you sound so mature and know everything. If I remember correctly, you are two years younger than me, right?"

Lu Lingxi crossed his arms and said proudly, "Look, you don't understand again. Whether a person is reasonable or not has nothing to do with age. Right, Chunhong?"

Chunhong smiled dotingly as always, "Yes, Miss is right. Go to bed early!"

Everyone in the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion slept relatively soundly that night.

After getting up the next day, Lu Lingxi couldn't wait to go to the next room to play with Gu Yan'er. The two of them wandered around the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion and talked nonstop. Especially Lu Lingxi, his mouth was dry and chapped, but he still kept talking, as if he hadn't seen Gu Yan'er for ten lifetimes and wanted to tell her everything he had seen and heard in these ten lifetimes.

The two young ladies were quite relaxed, relaxing and chatting. But the housekeeper, Uncle Wei, was in stark contrast to the two young ladies, as he was very busy.

Originally, he was preparing for Lu Lingxi's marriage. That was the ceremony for the Crown Princess, and he couldn't neglect it. Everything had to be reviewed by him personally. He hadn't dealt with that yet, and he had to prepare the betrothal gifts for Master Yu Gang. He was marrying the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the niece of the current Queen, so he couldn't be careless.

During the three days that Gu Yan'er stayed at the Zhenguo Marquis' Mansion, Uncle Wei was so busy that he had no time to eat or sleep. Fortunately, on the morning of the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, before Lu Yi and Lu Yugang set out for the Prime Minister's Mansion, they had arranged everything.

Lu Lingxi stood at the gate of the mansion, watching Uncle Wei carrying out the things he had prepared one box after another. He knew how many boxes to prepare, in what order to arrange them, and where to find so many people to carry the boxes. Uncle Wei had arranged everything perfectly.

In just three days, and in such a tight schedule, Uncle Wei was able to do such a good job. I have to say that Uncle Wei has some management skills.
