Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine
Chapter 278: Looking for an answer
Several people were sitting at the round table waiting to eat, but Butler Sun came over at this moment and said, Mr. Lu is here.
"Brother Lu is here." Dong Jialin immediately stood up from the stool.
Xu Yiwan frowned slightly, "What is Mr. Lu doing here at this hour? You didn't tell him that the master is not in the house?"
"Master Lu is not here to see the master, but to deliver something," Butler Sun said with a slightly subtle expression, "Madam, you'd better go and have a look."
Xu Yiwan stood up and walked out doubtfully.
"Let's go and see what Brother Lu has sent." Dong Jialin said with interest.
"Mrs. Dong, I take the liberty of disturbing you." Lu Siheng stood in the courtyard and said modestly and politely when he saw Xu Yiwan coming out.
Xu Yiwan noticed the bamboo basket at his feet, "Master Lu, this is..."
"Oh, it's the time to eat crabs. I thought that since you are from Yangzhou and have lived in Yingzhou for many years, you might like them, so I sent you some."
Dong Jiafu came out of the room and upon hearing these words, she immediately understood why Butler Sun had that expression. Was he asking for a crab meeting? ?
By coincidence, Mother Guo and Xia Zhi came over from the dining room with two large plates of steamed crabs.
The red crabs are big and fat.
Xu Yiwan coughed, "As Master Lu can see, Ji Yuan's mother just sent crabs from Yingzhou. We appreciate Master Lu's kindness."
Upon hearing this, Lu Siheng looked away from the steamed crabs and saw Feng Jiyuan next to Dong Jiafu.
"It turns out that Young Master Feng and I wanted to go to the same place, but unfortunately we arrived a little late. But it doesn't matter. Mrs. Dong can keep these until Mr. Dong comes back to eat in the evening. Even if we can't finish them, the crabs won't die tomorrow."
Everything is said
After receiving this, Xu Yiwan had to say: "We will accept that thing. Thank you Mr. Lu for taking the time to go there in person."
"Mrs. Dong, you don't have to be polite."
Just as Lu Siheng was thinking of an excuse to stay a little longer, Dong Jialin spoke up, "Brother Lu hasn't eaten yet. Do you want to come in and eat with us?"
"Why are you so embarrassed? Will it be too intrusive?" Lu Siheng looked at Xu Yiwan quietly.
Xu Yiwan couldn't say anything else, "If Mr. Lu is free, you might as well stay for a casual meal."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Siheng said immediately: "Then thank you, madam."
"Brother Lu, please come in quickly." Dong Jialin greeted warmly.
After we were seated, the dishes were served quickly.
Everyone got crabs to eat, and they ate them in different ways.
Dong Jialin and Lu Siheng were of the informal group, Dong Jiabo was still as unhurried as usual, and Feng Jiyuan was the most particular among them, carefully peeling the crab meat with tools.
However, although he was fastidious, his movements were very skillful and he quickly peeled off a complete crab.
Dong Jiafu watched as she ate, finding the whole process pleasing to the eye.
Feng Jiyuan seemed to feel it. He raised his head and met her eyes, his eyes full of smiles.
Dong Jiafu stopped moving her mouth and immediately lowered her head to eat the rice in the bowl.
Feng Jiyuan's smile deepened. After wiping his hands, he stood up and placed the plate with crab meat between Xu Yiwan and Dong Jiafu.
"Although the crab is delicious, it is really troublesome to eat. Please use it, Auntie and Afu."
Everyone at the dinner table looked at him, and Lu Siheng even bit off a crab leg.
"Ji Yuan is so attentive and considerate. Whoever marries you in the future will be lucky." Xu Yiwan smiled.
Narrowed.
Feng Jiyuan looked at Dong Jiafu subconsciously, then sat down with a blushing face, "Auntie, I was joking."
"I can't eat too much cold food," Xu Yiwan pushed the plate towards Dong Jiafu, "Afu, you can eat it, don't let down Jiyuan's wishes."
Dong Jiafu couldn't help but doubt herself. Could it be that Feng Jiyuan had just misunderstood her and thought she wanted to eat?
Thinking of this possibility, she hurriedly explained: "I just think Huaiyun's action of peeling crabs is very beautiful. You should eat the crab meat that you finally peeled."
Feng Jiyuan shook his head, "This is originally for you and your aunt, so don't be polite to me. I know you haven't liked peeling crab shells since you were a child."
"Yes, Afu, Jiyuan is not an outsider," Xu Yiwan pressed Dong Jiafu's hand that wanted to hold the plate, "Eat it quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold."
Lu Siheng observed silently, Feng Jiyuan was obviously interested in Jiafu, and Mrs. Dong was even more happy to see it happen, and even helped him. Looking at the two brothers beside him, they didn't have much reaction.
With half of the crab left in front of him, Lu Siheng felt like he couldn't eat any more.
After finishing the meal, Dong Jialin had to go to work at the bookstore, and Lu Siheng couldn't stay any longer. "There's been a lot of trouble today, so I'll take my leave first."
"Master Lu, walk slowly." Xu Yiwan nodded.
Shortly after Lu Siheng left, Dong Jiafu said, "Mom, I'm going back to my room first."
"Well, go back and have a good rest."
After Dong Jiafu came out, she did not go back to the west wing, but walked quickly outside the gate.
"What are you going to do, girl? Don't you want to go back to your room to rest?" Xia Zhi followed closely.
Dong Jiafu suddenly thought of something and stopped
, "Xia Zhi, go to my room and get a hundred taels of silver, then come to me outside the door."
"Ah? Why does the girl want so much money all at once?"
"Don't ask anymore, go quickly."
Xia Zhi hurriedly responded: "I'll go right now."
Dong Jiafu continued to rush out of the house, and when she went out, she saw Lu Siheng who was about to leave in a car.
"Wait a moment--"
Lu Siheng turned around, his clouded face immediately clearing up, "Jiafu, are you here to see me off? Don't worry, I'll be waiting for you."
Dong Jiafu came to him, steadied her breathing, and said bluntly: "You were injured before. Is the sapphire bracelet I gave to the doctor as a medical fee with you?"
She thought about it on the way back from Shen's Mansion. She had never lost a jade bracelet. The only one she had given to the doctor was the sapphire bracelet that she was told to break when she gave it to the doctor to exchange for silver.
It’s okay if you don’t know about this matter. Now that you know it, you must get it back. What's more, Lu Siheng also said that. After all, it is her thing. If it is used by someone with intentions, it will inevitably cause trouble.
The smile in Lu Siheng's eyes faded, "You have met Cui Qiyan, he told you."
He sounded certain that apart from Yue Qi, only Cui Qiyan knew about this matter, and Yue Qi could not tell her.
"Don't care who told me, how could you take my things and let the doctor lie to me?" Dong Jiafu was a little angry.
"What did Cui Qiyan say to you? Did he say bad things about me?"
"Why are you asking this? Hurry up and return the jade bracelet to me."
Lu Siheng refused, "You answer me first, and then I'll give it to you."
"Okay," Dong Jiafu took a deep breath, "Since you want to know, let me also ask you why the jade bracelet is my love letter to you.
thing? "
"Are you angry because I said these words in front of Cui Qiyan, or because I hid the jade bracelet from you?" Lu Siheng looked at her intently, begging for an answer.
