and leave

Chapter 118

Lu Yiqing and Shen Wangshu said they wouldn't go to the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet, and they didn't go, as for whether the Shen family held the banquet in the end, they didn't care at all.They just closed the door to live their own little life, and ignored everyone else.

Such a rush of time, a few months passed, and the two of them got some news about the Shen family respectively.

It was inevitable that Lu Yiqing would meet Patriarch Shen again in court, and more than once.At the beginning, Patriarch Shen was still able to put on airs and swayed in front of her again and again, as if he wanted to remind her to respect her elders and take the initiative.Later, seeing that Lu Yiqing hadn't responded and the Shen family was being liquidated one after another, he couldn't bear it and planned to get closer.It's a pity that at that time Lu Yiqing got the news first and avoided him very much.

As for Shen Wangshu, it was the same. She didn't want to be disturbed by Shen's family, so she started a reclusive life after returning from Xiangguo Temple.In this way, the Shen family naturally couldn't stop her, but the Shen family began to send invitations to the Lu family one by one.

You don't need to miss people, but you always have to read the never-ending greetings, so even though Shen Wangshu is in the inner house, she has a general idea of ​​the Shen family's situation—in a word, I know you guys are having a good time No, but what does that have to do with me?

Neither of them had any intention of meddling with the Shen family, and there are many people in the court who will act according to the wind.

From the very beginning when King Xiang plotted rebellion and Princess Xiang joined the rebellion, the Shen family was inevitably drawn into the vortex of rebellion.It's just that the Wei family army was in power at that time, and it happened that the Wei family army had little contact with Chang'an. Somehow someone figured out that Lu Yiqing had a considerable status in the Wei family army and was the son-in-law of the Shen family.So someone tried to suppress this matter, General Wei also turned a blind eye and let it go.

But time has changed, when everyone in Chang'an found out that although Lu Yiqing was in power, he was not close to the Shen family, and even the relationship between the two parties might be bad, then someone turned their guns and started trying to deal with the Shen family.

The sudden change of attitude one after the other was just to test the attitude of Lu Yiqing, an upstart in the imperial court.It's a pity that Lu Yiqing's attitude towards the Shen family has always been indifferent, no matter whether it's to please or deal with it. He is neither happy because someone pleases the Shen family, nor happy or angry because someone hurt the Shen family.Her attitude towards the Shen family was always the same as that towards strangers, so it was obvious that she would be noticed after a long time.

Since the Shen family had no one to protect them, and was dragged down by the former Princess Xiang, their downfall became inevitable.

Lu Yiqing didn't intervene in the whole process, she just stood by and watched, and didn't even say a word to Shen Wangshu when she got home.Of course Shen Wangshu didn't ask, both of them tacitly let go of this trouble.

Apart from the trouble of the Shen family, the life of returning to Chang'an can be said to be fulfilling and willful for the two of them.While Lu Yiqing was busy in the household department, worrying about state affairs, he occasionally took a break.Shen Wangshu once again took over the business in her hands, stopped some sensitive businesses such as glaze firing and selling private salt, and then slowly rectified the business to make it less conspicuous.

Time passed slowly in the occasional busy and occasionally sweet life of the two of them, and this year came to an end inadvertently.

Years ago, Patriarch Lu finally returned to Chang'an despite the wind and snow all over his body, but he didn't plan to stay in Chang'an for a long time.Maybe it's because I've seen through a lot in the past few years and let go of a lot. I already plan to settle down in my hometown in Jinling, and returning to Chang'an is just to spend a new year with the young couple.

Lu Yiqing was a little bit reluctant, but seeing his father's aging face, he didn't force it after all.

On New Year's Eve, the family of three spent it with the servants of the mansion. It was lively and lively, but it was indeed deserted.Especially at Patriarch Lu's age, seeing that his peers are surrounded by children and grandchildren, he is destined to have no grandchildren.Maybe I don't feel anything on weekdays, but when it comes to such a day, I still feel deserted and regretful after all.

After three or two glasses of wine, Patriarch Lu put the wine glass away, and said to the two vigilantes, "Ah Qing, you two are not too young, and you have been married for so many years, it's not good for you to be empty-handed all the time."

Lu Yiqing was pulling Shen Wangshu to talk, occasionally peeling an orange and eating it one by one, the atmosphere was indescribably sweet.Suddenly hearing this, both of them couldn't help being taken aback, and then Lu Yiqing's face darkened: "Father, what are you talking about? Ah Chen and I are fine now, what kind of child do you want? What about me? Go get you a baby?!"

Shen Wangshu's complexion was not very good, but at this moment, he was only silent and didn't say anything.

Patriarch Lu knew that they had misunderstood from the looks of the two, although he could not help being tempted, it can be seen that the situation immediately put aside those unrealistic thoughts, and explained: "What are you thinking about? I'm just talking about adopting a baby."

Fortunately, Patriarch Lu explained quickly, and the expressions of Lu Yiqing and Shen Wangshu calmed down—in fact, in today's world, broken sleeves are not an exception, and some men even regard broken sleeves as elegant.It's just that no matter how many such things there are, everyone's cognition in some aspects is the same, that is, in any case, it cannot affect the inheritance of offspring.And people like Lu Yiqing and Shen Wangshu are the real outliers.

Because of this understanding, as soon as Patriarch Lu mentioned the matter of the child, both of them subconsciously became vigilant.Fortunately, looking back and thinking about Lu Yiqing's current status, it would be impossible for her to hide for another year or so to give birth.

I was relieved, but Lu Yiqing still frowned: "I think Ah Chen and I have a good life, there is no need to raise any children."

Shen Wangshu secretly tugged on Lu Yiqing's sleeve upon hearing this, obviously intending to give in.After all, the Lu family has a great career, as long as Lu Yiqing doesn't give birth by himself, there is no problem raising a child, even Patriarch An Lu's heart is good.

But Lu Yiqing doesn't think so, she thinks the world between the two of them is better, since they are not biological, why should a child be involved? !

Patriarch Lu saw the actions of the two of them clearly, especially he knew his daughter best, seeing Lu Yiqing's reluctance on his face, he guessed her mind all over the place.I have to say that I have a toothache, and I am a little tired. I want to say a few more words, thinking that it is not easy to quarrel after the Chinese New Year.In the end, he had no choice but to compromise: "Forget it, I will raise it myself, so I won't bother you."

Shen Wangshu was a little uncomfortable by these words, feeling that the elders had seen through the little thought of the two of them, so he lowered his eyes and remained silent.On the other hand, Lu Yiqing didn't care, and nodded generously: "That's fine, Dad, you happen to be idle in Jinling, so you can raise a child."

The matter was finalized in this way, Lu Yiqing had a drink with her father, and the atmosphere became happy again.

During the next night's vigil, Lu Yiqing continued to cling to Shen Wangshu, and at the same time took time to discuss the adoption with Patriarch Lu.For example, if you adopt a boy or a girl, it is easier for a boy to take over the family business, but both Lu Yiqing and Shen Wangshu prefer girls.Another example is adopting a baby who is still a toddler. The baby does not remember things, but the toddler saves a lot of trouble and is not so easy to die.

The father and daughter were discussing and discussing, but they got excited and wanted to talk about everything they thought of.Gradually, even the children's food, clothing, housing and transportation, as well as the other party's enlightenment teacher, were discussed by the two of them, and they really had the posture to raise a child.

Shen Wangshu listened with interest, and listened with his chin resting on his shoulders, interjecting occasionally.

When the vigil was about to end, probably seeing that both of them were in good spirits, Patriarch Lu suddenly asked again: "I see that you two are also quite interested in raising children, otherwise, if you adopt them in the future, should I leave them to you?"

Lu Yiqing was originally in high spirits, but immediately waved his hands when he heard the words: "No, no, let's just talk about it, you will be fine if you keep it."

The attitude of being afraid of trouble was obvious, and he was not at all as active as before, which made Shen Wangshu couldn't help laughing.

****************************************************************************

The winter of this year seemed to be particularly cold. After the New Year's Eve, there were several snowfalls. It was not until the Shangyuan Festival that the snow in Chang'an City was completely gone.But it was even colder when the snow was melting, and I was so cold that I didn't want to go out.

It was on such a day that the Shangyuan Festival came.

The Shangyuan Festival has always been a lively festival, especially when Chang'an is the capital of the Liang Kingdom.In the Shangyuan Festival Palace, the emperor offered sacrifices to the gods, and there were lively lantern festivals in the city.Eating Lantern Festival, admiring lanterns, guessing lantern riddles, and drum music and juggling are all available. It is really a good day to go out for fun-the most important thing is that the imperial court is still on holiday on this day. Can go home for the holidays.

During such a festival, Lu Yiqing naturally couldn't sit still at home, and wanted to take his wife out to watch the lanterns as soon as it got dark.Patriarch Lu didn't bother, after dinner, he sent both of them out with a smile.

A servant handed over a lantern that had been prepared earlier, and Lu Yiqing showed it to Shen Wangshu, with the intention of presenting a treasure: "Look, Chen, I asked the craftsman who will be the prisoner to make it for you, is it good?"

Jiang Zuojian is a government office that specializes in making utensils for the royal family. The craftsmen in it are naturally highly skilled. How can this lantern that Lu Yiqing took so much trouble to get look not good?Shen Wangshu nodded after seeing it, and replied with a smile: "Of course it's beautiful, better than anything I've seen before."

Lu Yiqing immediately became happy when she heard the words, and did not go into the details of whether Shen Wangshu's words were true or false, and how partial.At that moment, she cheerfully carried the lantern and led her daughter-in-law, and went out.

It's not too late for the two of them to go out, it's just getting dark, but the street is already full of people coming and going.

The lanterns of the Shangyuan Lantern Festival are hung all over the entire Zhuque Street. After they are lit, the stars are connected together, and the lights are bright everywhere.But the lanterns at the Lantern Festival were nothing more than that. The ordinary shape, mass production, and workmanship were incomparable to the delicate lanterns Lu Yiqing was holding.Not only are the lanterns at the Lantern Festival incomparable, but even those selling lanterns on the street are incomparable.

Lu Yiqing was quite proud of this, but it wasn't just the lanterns that made her proud.When she walked down the street with Shen Wangshu, who was dressed in costume, the envious eyes of passers-by on the street looked at her from time to time, which made people feel happier.

But the daughter-in-law is his own, and people always feel unhappy when people see too much, Lu Yiqing stopped after walking for a while.

Shen Wangshu then stopped, looked sideways at her again, and asked in puzzlement, "What's wrong?"

Lu Yiqing didn't answer, just handed over the lantern in his hand, and said, "Ah Chen, help me carry the lantern for a while."

Shen Wangshu heard the words and naturally took the lantern, and then saw Lu Yiqing reached into his arms and took out a plain white handkerchief.Facing Shen Wangshu's puzzled gaze, Lu Yiqing unfolded the "veil" and shook it, Shen Wangshu realized that it was not a veil, but a handkerchief.

Probably guessing why Lu Yiqing did this, Shen Wangshu looked at the person in front of him with a half-smile.

Sure enough, Lu Yiqing immediately raised his hand and put the face scarf on for Shen Wangshu, and at the same time he muttered and explained: "There are too many people going out tonight, at least there are a few disciples in the crowd, Ah Chen is so beautiful , it’s better to wear a face mask.”

Shen Wangshu heard the words "jealous jar" in his heart, but there was a funny look on his face: "Ah Qing is worrying too much. Even if there are disciples, they are still staring at young and beautiful girls. Where would they come to see?" Me? Besides, there are people wearing face scarves all over the street, which one is not a girl who has not left the court, I have been married for many years, why do you want me to wear a face scarf?!"

Lu Yiqing ignored the words, took back the lantern and took Shen Wangshu's hand, not allowing her to take off the scarf, then insisted: "Ah Chen is pretty, so I can't let others see it."

That was her daughter-in-law, and she would be at a loss if others took a second look.
