It's not good to be a widow [Comprehensive]

With Lian Xing staying behind, Lu Jinglu's stay at the City Lord's Mansion for nearly a month was not boring at all.

She even took her daughter from the main courtyard to the courtyard next to the sisters of Yihua Palace, so that it was convenient for chatting with Lianxing and for the two children to play together.

A Fei is now one and a half years old, and he can almost speak some complete short sentences, and his articulation is very clear.

Lu Jinglu told him that your mother has important things to do and will come back after a while, so he nodded obediently and said, "I'll wait for mother to come back."

In contrast, chlorophyll is very worry-free.

It stands to reason that a child of this age can't remember a few people, and she will get close to whoever comes to take her, but she just misses her father every day.

Every day when Lu Jinglu wakes up, she has to coax her again: "Your father will come back after finishing his business, don't cry."

The little girl rolled around on the blanket, but didn't listen.

"I want Daddy...! I want Daddy!"

Lian Xing looked at it in amazement: "I didn't expect City Lord Ye to be so fond of Susu. I thought children would be afraid of his temper."

Lu Jinglu: "I can't help it. He's too used to this girl. He will give him whatever he wants. If he wants to sit on his back, he can sit on his shoulder. If he wants to sit on his shoulder, he can sit on his shoulder. It's like an ancestor."

"Strict mother and loving father, it should be." Lianxing said with a smile, "Who told you to control Susu so strictly?"

"I..." Lu Jinglu wanted to say that I was doing it for her own good, but when the words came to her lips, she felt that it would be meaningless to say them.

"Okay, I'm joking with you." Although she didn't say it, Lianxing glanced at her and guessed what she was thinking, "The child is still young, if you don't take care of it, accidents will inevitably happen. alright."

When Lu Jinglu heard this, she couldn't help but look at the girl who was sitting up tired from rolling over there.

When this little guy was first born, she was just a small ball wrapped in swaddling clothes, and her bones were still soft, making people afraid to hold her with confidence.

In the blink of an eye, she was over a year old, and she had learned the skill of watching people's faces and hugging her thighs without a teacher. No one could resist her coquettish behavior.

Although raising a child is tiring and hard work, the sense of accomplishment in watching her grow up day by day is beyond the reach of outsiders.

Thinking about this, Lu Jinglu leaned over and picked up the flat-mouthed girl, and said, "Okay, when your father comes back, I'll take you out of the city to pick him up."

The little girl who was only over one year old couldn't fully understand what the adults said, but when her mother took care of herself, she was happy, so she smiled through her tears, and came up to kiss her mother again.

Lu Jinglu's face was covered with half of her saliva, but she couldn't feel the slightest bit of disgust.

"Well, when it comes to being able to see your father, you won't make a fuss, will you?"

What responded to her was her daughter's big flickering eyes and her silly little expression at the moment.

The rhythm of the mother and daughter's arguing and coaxing lasted for more than half a month.

The little magic star talked about her father tirelessly, so she could only cooperate and continue to make promises.

In the end, it was Yan Wu who made the situation a little better.

Since Yan Wu came to South China Sea with Ye Gucheng, he has been living in Beiyuan and learning martial arts from an elder in Baiyun City.

Originally, Ye Gucheng was supposed to teach him, but after teaching on the road for a while, Ye Gucheng felt that the kid might not like learning swords, so after he came back, he found another master for him based on his interests.

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the elder replaced Ye Gucheng, the city lord, to sprinkle water on the tower to pray for blessings, and also took the apprentice out to let the wind go.

Yan Wu played all night, and then I don't know if it was suggested by the master. When he came back from the game, he bought a bunch of windmills and sent them here, saying that they were for the young lady and the young master Ah Fei who came to visit.

As soon as the colorful windmills came to chlorophyll, they attracted her attention.

In addition, A Fei was not interested in this, so in the end she took all of them back to her room, and then she lay down on her stomach and blew on them at every turn, and she stopped touching the toys her father made for her.

Lu Jinglu: "..." All right, you are the ancestor, as long as you are happy.

Later, when Lian Xing learned about this, she laughed so hard that she couldn't support her waist, and said: "It seems that it is really not good to stay in the yard all the time, otherwise let's take the two children out for a stroll in a few days."

Lu Jinglu thought for a while, felt that it made sense, and agreed.

The next day, the two of them took their two children out for a stroll.

Since the two children were born, the range of activities has not been very large. They finally got such an opportunity. Of course, they were very happy. After shopping for a long time, they didn’t feel tired. After returning, they still thought about whether they could go to the street tomorrow superior.

The day Lu Jinglu came back, she had completely shown her face in front of the residents of the city, so now she could be recognized as the wife of the city lord wherever she went.

This directly led to "special care" no matter what she and Lian Xing brought their two children to eat and buy.

After all kinds of refusals, she couldn't escape, for the first time she put on the airs of the wife of the city lord, and ordered the owners of the shops not to do so.

Lianxing said that she didn't need to be so cautious, she shook her head and said it was not cautious.

"He didn't become the city lord to please the people on the island." Lu Jinglu said, "Of course I can't hold him back."

"You..." Lianxing clicked his tongue with a half-smile, and then changed the topic, "Now that the Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, I don't know what's going on at Bat Island."

Lu Jinglu asked: "Are you worried about the Grand Palace Master?"

Lian Xing replied: "My sister doesn't need me to worry, I'm just curious about the true identity of that bat boy."

And this question obviously won't be answered until they come back from Bat Island.

Lu Jinglu: "..." It's hard work not to reveal any spoilers.

When Ye Gucheng and the others went, in order to ensure that they could catch up, they set off a few days earlier, so they left on the first day of August. On the return journey, without those scruples, they stopped the ship and entered the port ten days later in the evening.

Lu Jinglu kept in mind the agreement with his daughter, and as soon as he received the news that the guards had returned to the City Lord's Mansion, he and Lian Xing left the city with their two children.

As a result, when she reached the gate of the city, she was told by the guard commander who received the news again that Ye Gucheng was not on that boat.

"Ah?!" Lu Jinglu immediately had some bad associations, "What's wrong? Did something happen to him?"

She has a problem when she is nervous, she will subconsciously grasp the things in her hand, and if there is nothing, she will pinch her palm.

So at this moment, when she heard the news that Ye Gucheng was not on the boat, she almost instinctively tightened the hand holding her daughter, and even startled her daughter, and yelled 'wow' directly at the gate of the city.

Lu Jinglu immediately became more anxious, and even looked at the guard commander with a bit of cold eyes.

The other party did not expect that the madam and the eldest lady would have such a strong reaction. After realizing it, they hurriedly bowed and replied: "Xiang Shuai said that they discovered the ancestral sword formula of the Ye family on the Bat Island, so the matter of the Bat Island Afterwards, the city lord left first, saying that there was an old debt to settle."

Lu Jinglu: "The ancestral sword formula?!"

"What's going on, we couldn't ask Xiangshuai clearly in a hurry." The guard commander paused, "Why don't you wait for Xiangshuai and the others to arrive, and let Xiangshuai explain?"

"...are they disembarking now?" Lu Jinglu heard herself asking.

After the commander finished speaking, he was about to enter the city, and said, "Why don't you just wait here, Madam, I think you should be there in a while."

Lu Jinglu: "No, I'll go out to meet you."

She was so eager to know what was going on that she could not wait a moment.

Seeing this, the commander knew it was useless to stop her, so he opened the way for her.

After going out for a few steps, she saw Chu Liuxiang and the others from a distance.

Except for Ye Gucheng, many of the people who left at the beginning came back, and Chu Liuxiang, who was walking in the middle, also saw her, turned his head to talk to the people around him, then quickened his pace, and rushed towards her.

Before standing still, Chu Liuxiang opened her mouth and said, "I know what Mrs. Ye wants to ask, please take it easy, this is not the place to talk after all."

Lu Jinglu: "Then tell me first, is there anything wrong with him?"

"Of course not." Chu Liuxiang said, "Our trip went very smoothly."

Hearing the words "very smooth", Lu Jinglu's heart hanging there was slightly relieved.

After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Chu Liuxiang told her the reasons in full.

Because the Bat Island was unprepared, their trip went very smoothly, and they leveled the Bat Island with almost no effort.

So they also successfully learned the true identity of Mr. Bat, and uncovered the inside story of the sea gold cave.

Just as they guessed before they set off, Bat Island almost included the martial arts secrets of most martial arts sects in the martial arts world, and among all these secrets, the most surprising thing was the ancestral sword formula of the Ye family.

When Ye Gucheng saw this sword manual, he was so unbelievable that he almost lost his composure.

Chu Liuxiang advised him: "After you go back, check your Baiyun City Lord's Mansion carefully."

Ye Gucheng shook his head and said: "There is no need to check, this sword formula is only passed on by word of mouth among the Patriarchs, and has never been written down."

Since it has never been written down, it is impossible for someone in the city lord's mansion to steal it and sell it to Bat Island.

That is to say, the thief is not at home, but outside.

"He should have vaguely guessed who it was at the time, but he didn't dare to make a complete conclusion. Later, after interrogating several of Mr. Bat's subordinates, he was able to determine where the sword formula came from." Chu Liuxiang said, "Yuan Suiyun thought carefully, followed All the transactions made by the man were recorded, and we later found the account book used for recording, and compared the statements of his subordinates to find out the reason."

When Lu Jinglu heard this, she also vaguely guessed something, and asked tentatively, "Is it... Nan Wang?"

Chu Liuxiang smiled and nodded, "It's him."

"When he first came to Feixian Island to seek relationships, I felt that he must have some schemes." Lu Jinglu said, "Not only did he have schemes, but even the past was tampered with in his mouth?"

Ye Gucheng's father may have lived and died with Nan Wang, or he may have accepted some love from him, but he also repaid him accordingly.

In the end, Nanwang was lucky, not only did he never mention the reward he got at the beginning 20 years later, he even sold the reward directly.

No wonder Ye Gucheng would be so angry that he would settle the old accounts as soon as the matter of Bat Island was over.

Chu Liuxiang felt it was understandable, so after explaining the whole story, she said to Lu Jinglu: "Don't worry, Mrs. Ye, with his swordsmanship, not to mention the Nanwang Mansion, even the Imperial Palace, he can come and go freely."

"He also asked me to tell you that he will come back immediately after he settles this old account."

Intellectually, Lu Jinglu knew that Chu Liuxiang was telling the truth, but it was about King Nan, so she couldn't really rest assured.

On the first night when she moved back to the main courtyard, she also had a nightmare.

The author has something to say: There is another update before tomorrow morning, ah, I didn't write the part I was supposed to write, so I can only stay up all night or scratch my heart and lungs!
