Nian Huajiao: The cold-faced treacherous minister spoiled her unconditionally after breaking his vow
Chapter 168: Peeping at people sleeping in the middle of the night?
He had been to Jiang Luo's yard twice, so he was familiar with the place.
Summer is here and the crescent moon is high in the sky.
The weather was getting hotter and hotter. Although there was ice in the house, it still couldn't resist the stuffiness. When Jiang Luo was about to rest, Mother Wu deliberately opened the carved diamond wood window next to the corridor.
It was late at night and the evening breeze blew. Jiang Luo felt refreshed and slept more soundly.
Lu Jinan did not enter Jiang Luo's boudoir without permission like he did last time.
At this moment, he was standing in front of the carved wooden window, using the bright moonlight to quietly watch the person sleeping in the shape of a big character on the bed...
The ice in the house was almost melted. Only some broken ice cubes were left in the basin, floating gently on the water.
Lu Jinan frowned slightly: "Little girl, are you short of ice? It's only been a short while and the ice is gone..."
He put this little thing in his heart, then looked down and saw that he seemed to be standing in the middle of the window, just blocking the night wind from the little girl, so he quickly stood aside.
The little girl's sleeping posture was quite indecent, but in Lu Jinan's eyes, it was quite interesting.
The corners of his mouth curved slightly, and he actually laughed softly. His laughter was like the gentle breeze and bright moon, or like the flowing water in a mountain stream, refreshing the heart.
Lu Jinan didn't know what was wrong with him, he was like a possessed man who couldn't control himself. He was tired after a few days, and instead of going back to rest and sleep in the middle of the night, he stood here and peeked at the little girl sleeping...
After a moment, he seemed to remember something and turned away in a hurry...
Not long after, his figure appeared in front of the window again. He didn't stay for long, but quietly went into the house and opened the bag in his hand, which was full of blocks of ice.
The moonlight shone on him, making his black clothes look even more mysterious.
The face hidden in the semi-light and semi-darkness makes people sigh. People in Yongjing City only know that Lord Lu of the Jinyiwei kills people like crazy and is cold-blooded and ruthless, but ignore his noble and handsome face. It is really a pity.
I saw him carefully put ice back into each basin, and after putting all the ice in place, he took another deep look at the person on the bed before leaving...
Shaoguangyuan was still as usual. When Nanxing noticed the strange smell, Lu Jinan's shadow disappeared.
She searched the yard and found nothing, so she tiptoed back into the house.
Wangyou has been busy working on a new prescription lately, and has been sleeping late and has a bad temper. Nanxing doesn't dare to wake her up. Otherwise, she has seen Wangyou's poisoning methods before...
Early the next morning, when Jiang Luo got up at the urging of Mother Wu, there was still some ice left in the ice basins in the four corners of the room.
Jiang Luo didn't pay attention to these little things. It was only after Mother Wu helped her put on her clothes that she said in surprise: "Hey, this ice is really useful. It's still there after a night."
This is the ice that Jiang Luo bought with his own money. In a noble family, all resources are limited. Not everyone can use as much as they want.
Now that Liu was the head of the family, the amount of ice cubes given to her was already quite good. If Qin was the head of the family, hehe... she would be thankful to have half of this amount.
But she doesn't need to.
Although she had given the silver her mother left her to the high-ranking official to buy food, her third uncle also brought her 30,000 taels of silver notes when he came to buy food.
A few days ago, she received a letter from Guangling. The letter was bulging with money. At that time, she thought that her cousins had also written to her. But when she opened it, she found that it was another silver note of 10,000 taels.
Jiang Luo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and his eyes turned red again.
The noble families prided themselves on being pure, and if any family was tainted with the smell of money, they would be slandered and despised, which was extremely hypocritical. Little did they know that the most important thing was to have money and not let themselves be burdened by external things.
She has lived her life again and is more open-minded than anyone else. Only those who give her money to spend and don't care about false reputation are the ones who truly care about her.
Jiang Luo followed Mother Wu's line of sight and felt a little strange. Didn't she put so much ice in when she rested yesterday?
Looking at it now, the four ice basins were all soaked by the overflowing water.
Although she was confused, she did not think about it and just said, "Then let Mingxu buy more ice from this store in the future. You can also put some in your own rooms. You don't have to save it for me."
Honeysuckle called the maid outside the door and went into the house to clean up the ice basins on the floor. Then she was busy cleaning the house again.
Mingxu was helping Jiang Luo tidy up her clothes and put her hair into a bun.
When they heard this, they all felt warm in their hearts. The women who did the rough work were all envious when they heard this.
"How can that be, my lady? Ice is the most expensive thing in summer, so you should use it first. We already have some in our room, and we can't add more. If we break the rules and someone uses it to make a raft..." Mother Wu muttered as she made the bed.
Originally, Mother Wu didn't have to do this little thing of making the bed. But since she came back to Jiang Luo's side, Mother Wu had to do everything herself regarding Jiang Luo's daily life and diet, and would never let anyone else do it.
Unless Jiang Luo trusted these personal maids who could help her out, the rest of the maids in the courtyard were all disciplined by her every day, and they were not allowed to step into the main house without the young lady's order.
Now, the entire Shaoguang Courtyard is being watched closely by Mother Wu, which has saved Jiang Luo a lot of trouble.
Mingxu frowned after hearing what Madam Wu said: "Yes, Miss, Madam Wu is right. I know you love us, but if it's because of..."
Jiang Luo smiled and patted her hands: "What's the big deal? I can spend my money however I want. Who else can tell me what to do? If I make you guys too excited, who will take care of me?"
Mother Wu made the bed and walked behind Jiang Luo, wanting to say something, but was interrupted by Jiang Luo, saying coquettishly, "Mother Wu, you have to take care of yourself when you are old. I can't live without you."
When Mother Wu saw her so charming and lovely, she felt happy and sad at the same time, and she immediately became completely soft: "Okay, okay, I will listen to you. I will take good care of myself and serve you for a long time. Then I will go with you to my husband's house and take care of your children." She said as she walked out with a smile.
Mingxu was busy combing her hair, and she smiled happily after hearing what Mother Wu said.
So is honeysuckle.
Jiang Luo was smiling when he heard the first half of the sentence, but when he heard the second half, he lowered his eyes.
Getting married? She had never thought about it.
In her life, she only wanted revenge and freedom. However, she couldn't tell the people around her about these thoughts for the time being, especially Mother Wu.
She should be the person in the world who, besides her uncles, most wants to see her get married and have children.
In a moment, she calmed down and returned to her previous beautiful smile.
Mother Wu was busy preparing breakfast. After she finished speaking, she left the inner room and headed towards the small kitchen. She did not notice anything unusual happening to Jiang Luo.
