Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 106 Affectionate

  Lu Mingyu looked at the tenderness in his father's eyes, knowing that he remembered his mother who had been dead for many years, and he felt a little stuffy in his heart.

   "Father," Lu Mingyu asked softly, "What does my mother look like?"

Lu Lin stared at his daughter, as if seeing the girl he loved when he was young through her beautiful and heroic face: "Your mother has thick eyebrows and phoenix eyes, bright and moving. She has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she is quite powerful, and she is not weaker than me. "

   "You and your mother look alike when they were young."

   Xiao's boudoir name is Yu Niang.

  After giving birth to a daughter, Xiao Shixiang disappeared. Lu Lin was distraught, and after burying his wife, he didn't speak for half a month, and was extremely depressed.

   Until the nurse brought her crying daughter to him.

   The little baby girl has snow-white skin and dark and bright eyes, making her cry extraordinarily powerful.

   His full of grief was dissipated by the cry of his daughter. He carefully took his daughter into his arms and said in a low voice, "Your mother's name is Yu Niang, will your father name you Mingyu?"

   He called his daughter's nickname, Xiaoyu, just like he was calling his deceased wife.

  Daughter grows up day by day, lively, naughty, and powerful. He loved it like a treasure and taught his daughter martial arts by himself. He took care of his daughter when she grew up.

   This is his daughter, and it is the blood that his wife bought in exchange for her life.

  Lu Lin's eyes became more and more gentle: "Xiaoyu, you have an outstanding talent in martial arts, and your magical power is actually inherited from your mother. It's just that you are more straightforward than your mother when you were younger."

   is really euphemistic. Another meaning of frankness is that you have a bad temper!

   It's not a loss to be a biological father, everything is good to see his daughter.

  Lu Mingyu smiled casually: "Dad, don't coax me. I know my temper, and it's not good. I'm irritable and hands-on, my mother must be much gentler than me."

  Lu Lin laughed: "Yeah, after your mother married me, she fought with me. When she got free time, she washed my laundry for me, and cooked for me. She is the best woman in the world."

"Your mother and I have known each other since the age of fourteen, and we got married when we were sixteen. Our relationship is very good, like glue. When we bicker, I can't quarrel with your mother. However, she has the upper hand, and she can't bear to be angry with me. It doesn't take a moment. , come to coax me. I will pretend to be angry, and let your mother make a bowl of noodles for me to eat..."

   Lu Lin suddenly couldn't speak any more, and turned his head to the side.

  Lu Mingyu was also a little sad.

   Her mother died since she was born, and her father raised her. But she was no stranger to her mother, because when her father was free, he rambled about her mother in front of her. There is also a portrait of Xiao in the study.

  Lu Lin has been fighting all year round, and he has reached his prime, becoming more and more majestic.

  The Xiao family in the painting is forever fixed in the years of youth.

   After a while, Lu Lin turned his head and his eyes were a little red: "It's getting late, you go and rest first! I'm going to stay in the study for a while."

  When Lu Lin is in a good mood or bad, he likes to stay in the study and talk to his mother's portrait.

  Lu Mingyu's heart became more sour, and whispered: "Dad goes to bed earlier."

   Lu Lin nodded in response.

  …

   After Lu Mingyu left, Lu Lin got up and walked to the portrait.

   Xiao Yuniang in the portrait is wearing a red military uniform, holding a spear, with heroic eyebrows and a bright smile.

   Lu Lin cherished and stroked the face of the woman on the portrait, and said in a low voice, "Mother Yu, our little jade is engaged."

   "Her future husband is the second prince. Not to mention his dignity, he is intelligent and motivated, and treats people with modesty and courtesy. Moreover, he is very concerned about Xiaoyu."

   "Are you satisfied with such a future son-in-law?"

   Lu Lin rambled, and at some point, his eyes were already red, and a few drops of the boy's tears rolled down.

   Yuniang, I miss you so much!

   Over the years, I don’t know how many people persuaded him to continue his string.

When her daughter Xiaoyu was ten years old, she said to him: "Dad, don't worry! I've grown up, and I'm not afraid of having a stepmother. I'm so strong, and the stepmother doesn't dare to bully me when she walks in. ."

   He couldn't control it at the time, he hugged his daughter and cried, and then said to her daughter: "Xiaoyu, father doesn't want to get married again. Father has your mother in his life, it's enough."

   His wife, only one. She is gone, and he has no plans to marry anyone else.

   Colleagues and friends were matchmakers for him, but they were all politely rejected by him one by one.

  Three years ago, Emperor Yongjia wanted to match him with a royal princess.

   The Duanning County Master was six years younger than him. Her husband died on the battlefield, and she was a widow in the mansion. She also had only one daughter under her knees. The Duke of Duanning was the cousin of Emperor Yongjia. Marrying her, he and Yongjia Emperor have a layer of marriage relationship, which is a good thing for him and the Lu family.

   Moreover, Duanning County Master was born beautiful and gentle, neither harsh nor pungent, and even quite famous.

   Such a good marriage, he still refused: "I have no plans to continue, thank the emperor for your trouble."

  Emperor Yongjia had no difficulty in being a strong man. Seeing that he was really unwilling, he had to give up.

  When Duanning County Master knew about this, he went to the Lu family to see him in person: "Is it possible that King Xingyang dislikes me as a widow, so he doesn't want to marry me? Or is he worried that I will treat Miss Lu Si slowly after I pass the door?"

He bowed his hands and apologized: "The county master has misunderstood. My beloved wife has passed away for many years, and I have been a widower for twelve years. How dare I dislike the county master. The county master is famous, and I think he is definitely not the kind of person who will treat the little girl harshly and slowly. ."

   "There's nothing wrong with the county lord. It's my heart that's thinking about my deceased wife, and I don't want to marry again."

   Duanning County Lord looked at him with a hint of affection in his eyes: "King Xingyang has a deep affection for his deceased wife, and he hasn't remarried for more than ten years. I have known about this for a long time."

"What I admire is also a good man like you who is affectionate and righteous. To tell you the truth, this marriage was the matchmaker I personally asked my cousin to do. I don't dare to expect you to treat me like this. I just hope that you can marry me as a sequel. In the future, I will take good care of Miss Lu Si and take care of the trivial matters in the inner house, so that you will not be worried. "

   "Also, although you have many adopted sons and daughters, the blood of your direct relatives is only Miss Lu Si. I... I have not yet reached my thirties. In the future, I can have children for you and inherit the incense of the Lu family..."

   "County Lord!" Lu Lin looked at her with determination: "Xiaoyu is my bloodline. In the future, if she gets married and has children, she will be able to pass on the incense of the Lu family."

   "I have no plans to marry a wife, and I don't dare to delay the county master's time, please come back!"

   Duanning County Lord left with a sad look.

   After the story spread, no one matched him anymore.

   "Niang Yu, you will be happy if you know something underground!" Lu Lin's eyes flashed with water, and his voice was low: "You are in the spirit of heaven, you must bless our little jade, marry a good person, love husband and wife, and live a happy life."

   Xiao Yuniang in the portrait is still smiling.
