If You Can’t Be a Son-in-law, You Have To Be Sanctified

  Chapter 57 Beauty Waiting for Seventy Years

  The autumn wind is bleak and the weather is cool, and the grass and trees are shaking and dew is frost!

   So when the autumn wind picked up, when Lu Jing's calm voice fell into Lu Jiang's ears, Lu Jiang's expression became more gloomy, like the grass and trees with white dew and frost, gloomy and incomprehensible.

   He was still sitting high on that precious black horse, looking down at the landing scene.

  Lu Jing was looking up at him, but there was no awe or fear in his eyes, some were just quiet.

   "So...you don't want to reconcile with me?"

   After a long time, Lu Jiang suddenly laughed, but there was not much smile on his face.

   He stared at Lu Jing, leaned down and said, "This Lu Mansion is huge, but it is also extremely small. You and I will see you many times in the future. Today, I will talk to you for the last time."

   "Perhaps in a few days, Nanfu divorced the marriage, then Miss Tianjiao from Nanfu wrote a letter of divorce to you, and you will know that ordinary disciples of the bookstore can't break out of this clan's cage!

   By then, Lu Jing, you will probably know that you shouldn't say these things to me today, you shouldn't have such a ridiculous style. "

   After Lu Jiang finished speaking, he straightened up and pulled the reins.

  The long mane black horse's hooves were raised high, the black horse was very close to Lu Jing, and a strong wind whistled past Lu Jing.

   But Lu Jing never dodged, as if he hadn't seen the dark horse coming under pressure, and there was not much fear on his face.

  In the end, the horse's hoof fell, but it stepped on the gray bricks on the ground.

   "Click!"

  The two extremely hard gray bricks shattered, and two hoof prints were stepped on.

  Lu Jiang sneered and rode away.

  Lu Jing still stood there, smiled and said, "Cousin, today I want to tell you that there is no possibility of reconciliation between you and me."

"In your opinion, there is a very small rift between you and me. You just lost a horse and lost a servant, but if I were defeated by Zhang Yuan that day, I'm afraid I will be as you do. It should be dead or abolished, and the best result is to live a lifetime on the bed.

   This kind of rift, cousin, you say reconciliation is reconciliation? How to reconcile? "

   Lu Jiang, who rode the horse in front, stiffened, and even the hand holding the reins tightened, causing the dark horse to pause for a moment.

   But then, Lu Jiang didn't turn his head, but the voice came from immediately: "I hope you won't regret your choice today."

  Lu Jiang left.

  Lu Jing also walked slowly on the boulevard.

   "The villain has no section, abandons the book and chases the end, and thinks about it with joy, and thinks about it with anger."

   "He took the reconciliation with me as a favor to me, but he didn't want to think about the grudge between me and him, and why it started.

   And... he reconciled with me today, but yesterday he was still involved in the matter of the distinguished guest. It was nothing more than a change from repression with force to some wicked deeds, which is shameful. "

  Lu Jing could see through Lu Jiang's hidden thoughts at a glance. .

   Although Lu Jiang, like him, is the son of the Lu mansion, his situation in the Lu mansion is very different from that of Lu Jing.

   His biological mother was favored before, and he saved a lot of money, and he courted Mrs. Zhu, the wife of Lu Zhongshan.

  Lu Jiang is naturally like a fish in water in the mansion. He is used to being arrogant and domineering, but now he thinks he has suffered a lot of grievances. How could he reconcile with Lu Jing so easily?

   "It's hard for a villain to be appeased, so that's fine."

  Lu Jing's eyes flickered, but he didn't know what to think.

   He entered the Lu Mansion all the way, and then came to his small courtyard, but found that there were two guests in the courtyard.

One is Lu Yi, this young lady is wearing a pink tulle skirt with gold thread and a brocade feather satin cloak. With a jade pendant.

   At first glance, it is very favored by the two governments.

   It's just that today's Lu Yi is not as lively as usual, and there is a lot of sadness in his eyebrows, which makes Lu Jing a little surprised.

   In the past, Lu Yi was the most carefree in this Lu Mansion.

   He played in the Lu Mansion all day long, and occasionally went out of the Lu Mansion to call friends and do some poetry and play some swordsmanship.

   Today looks, but listless.

  Lu Jing saw it, but he wasn't ready to ask anything.

   When Lu Yi arrived, the other guest was naturally Sheng Zi.

  She was wearing some light makeup today, with a little bit of powder, maybe some Jade Girl peach pollen, and her lips were bright red, which made her look much more beautiful.

   Vermilion powder is not deep and even, and idle flowers are lightly fragrant. It is good to look carefully.

  She was sitting at the stone table, talking to Lu Yi, but when she saw Lu Jing coming from a distance, she stood up.

   Qingyue in the distance still had some dirt on her face, which was probably the soil she had just been in the pine garden.

   She also saw Lu Jing coming, and a smile appeared on her face.

   "Lu Jing."

  Sheng Zi pointed back at the stone table with a smile on her face.

   On the stone table, there is a set of pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

   Looking closely, this set of four treasures of the study is very good. The pen is a millennium red mulberry pen from Hewudao. The paper looks very delicate, better than the river silk paper, and it has a faint golden color.

  Lu Jing didn't know where the paper came from. He only knew that this kind of paper must be extremely valuable. Even in this luxurious Lu Mansion, he had never seen a pen and paper of this grade.

   As for the inkstone, the whole body is made of white jade, and it is carved with a white tiger with its teeth and claws. It looks exquisite and valuable.

  Sheng Zi saw Lu Jing's eyes on the four treasures of the study on the stone table, and smiled: "I came here last time, and I originally wanted to tell you two things, but because the elders of the Lu residence invited you, I had to put it on hold.

   So I'm here again today, I hope you won't get bored. "

  Sheng Zi speaks with all manner of manners, graceful and graceful, coupled with the rare heroic spirit in her white-toothed eyebrows, which is heartbreaking.

   Especially the cherry red between the eyebrows, which adds a lot of girlish charm to her.

  Lu Jing shook his head with a smile: "Qingyue told me about this, but it's just a letter, so what's the point of harassment?"

   When he was talking, Qingyue had already poured hot tea for him, took a lot of food he brought from the dining hall in the bookstore, and went to the side room to prepare it.

   She didn't say a word, but the tenderness and care in her eyebrows were all seen by Sheng Zi.

  Sheng Zi looked at Qing Yue's back curiously, then turned to Lu Jing and said, "I'm here today because of a friend of mine. My friend's status is noble, but his tutor is stricter, and he can't easily leave the house."

"It just happens that my friend also has a childhood sweetheart, who is also his sweetheart. It just so happens that he has been preparing for a long time to send a calligraphy and painting to his sweetheart. My friend's painting skills are good, but the ink skills are not very deep, and I just happen to see After reading the few sentences you sent me, I want you to write a few words in his painting."

  Sheng Zi said a few words, and she already made it clear.

   She acted generously and decisively, without any hesitation.

  Sheng Zi was one of Lu Jing's few friends in this world, but it was just a few words of request, so there was no reason to refuse.

   So he nodded and asked, "I don't know which words to write?"

Sheng Zi first pointed to the four treasures of the study on the stone table: "My friend is very attentive, the golden pages of this Zhanghuai Academy are used for your brush practice, and I will bring that painting today, when you practice it. Those few words, just write it up."

When Sheng Zi said this, he winked at Lu Jing again: "My good friend is a good friend, and he doesn't lack anything on weekdays, and naturally there is no reason to let you write for free, so I also prepared a gift, this table The Four Treasures of the Study Room are just rude."

   As she spoke, she reached out and undid the sword from her waist.

   "This is a gift from my friend and I. You are already a Confucian scholar when you enter the academy. How can you not have a gentleman's sword around your waist?"

  Lu Jing frowned, he looked carefully at the sword in Sheng Zi's hand.

This sword is only about two feet long. It seems to be a gentleman's sword used for accessories. The hilt looks crystal clear. It is made of white jade with white clouds and flowing water engraved on it. , there is still some fragrance.

   "This gentleman's sword is very valuable at first glance. I only wrote a few words, how can I receive such a heavy gift?"

  Lu Jing took a few glances, then shook his head and said: "Sheng Zi, you and I are familiar with each other, and you know my character, how can you be rewarded without merit?"

  Lu Jing is not claiming to be arrogant, but things in this world have more or less price.

   His handwriting is really good, but the characters are expensive because of the person. Now that he has no fame or fame, Lu Jing also knows that his handwriting is not worth such a gentleman's sword.

  If you accept it hastily, you owe someone else's love, and you will have to pay it back if you encounter trouble in the future.

   Because of this, Lu Jing refused so decisively.

   "Just a few words, I'll give it to you, you can take it as a favor."

When he said this, he walked to the stone table, studied the ink and started writing, and gently pushed the stack of gold pages aside, and said with a smile: "It doesn't take much practice to mention a few words, that painting is in where?"

  Sheng Zi was stunned for a moment, then quickly took out a painting from her long sleeve and spread it out carefully.

  Lu Jingluo's eyes fell, only to see an old wooden chair painted on the painting, and on the wooden chair was a girl with a cold expression, showing a bit of morbidity.

   The girl's eyes were drooping, she was listless, and there was not even a hint of hope in her eyes.

   In the distance, a round of sun shone down and fell on the girl, but it gave the girl more vitality.

  Little bridges and flowing water, ancient trees and strange flowers... Many images come to life on the painting.

  It is obvious that the person who made this painting was very careful.

  Sheng Zi said on the side, "Then mention 'If you don't come again, it will snow in Taixuan Beijing', these twelve or three words are enough."

  If you don't come again, it will snow in Taixuan Jingzhong...

  Lu Jing raised his eyebrows and glanced at Sheng Zi, who nodded.

   He just finished writing.

  —

   Today's meals in the small courtyard are not shabby.

  The dining hall in the book building is quite famous, both Sheng Zi and Lu Yi were very satisfied.

   Even Qingyue ate a few extra pieces of boiled mutton.

   Until the end, Sheng Zi insisted, Lu Jing never accepted the gentleman's sword, and in the end, he could only keep the four treasures of the study.

But in the end, Sheng Zi smiled calmly: "I prepared this sword for you, if you don't take it today, I will take it for you. When you get married, you will wear a sword around your waist. send you again."

   After she finished speaking, she left with Lu Yi.

   Qing Yue, who was standing beside Lu Jing, looked at Sheng Zi's leaving back, and sighed a little: "Master, that friend of Miss Sheng's is really infatuated."

"what?"

"I listened to Miss Sheng's chat with Miss Lu Yi. She talked about the owner of the painting just now. It is said that the nobleman retired from a marriage that was very suitable for their clan, just to wait for the legs in the painting to have some... no nice lady.

   This is the seventh year. "

  Lu Jing couldn't help but nod when he heard Qingyue's words: "In this way, that noble person is indeed a person who values ​​love and righteousness."

   Qingyue smiled at Lu Jing with her hands behind her back.

   She thought to herself: "Seven years is a long time, but I think I can wait for the young master..."

   "Seventy years."
