After bathing and changing clothes, and having a delicious meal of four dishes and one soup, Lu Xinran rubbed her belly contentedly and wandered around the courtyard.
Ever since she could remember in her previous life, she had a certain amount of what she ate at every meal, and she never lived a life of indulgence.
Eating and drinking without any scruples like now, running around like that during the day, I never dare to expect.
She grinned happily, and Aunt Xu, who was standing under the eaves of the corridor, looked at her speechlessly.
I want to teach her some manners that a lady should have, and I feel that she is as comfortable and comfortable as she is now, which is what a woman should look like.
She hesitated for a long time, and finally swallowed back all the words that came to her mouth.
"Tongzi, did the ones I saw in Yizhuang this afternoon have their health points increased?"
"have."
Tongyin shouted excitedly, "It's been ten days. Let's go to Yizhuang every day from now on. I'm sure you'll be able to save several years of health in no time."
Lu Xinran: "..."
It's not okay to go to Yizhuang every day, not to mention that she is afraid that she will have nightmares.
This idea is wrong. Isn’t this expecting there to be murder cases every day?
The system felt her thoughts and couldn't help but murmur, "Well, I am an upright and kind-hearted person. You, you, you think I didn't say anything just now."
Lu Xinran rolled her eyes. Tongzi, an upright and kind-hearted person, made his energy by gossiping.
Her tradition is not serious!
In Zhao's room, she pulled Lu Xinlan and kept asking them what they did when they went out today, and whether Lu Xinran bullied her because of his status.
"Mom, my sister is very good, naive and cute. Don't think of her like this."
"She's nice? She's cute and cute? Are you crazy?"
Zhao's voice suddenly increased, "She... how could she talk about her biological mother like that? She is just a vulgar and ignorant country girl. When I think that she was born from my belly, I want to strangle her to death."
The more she talked, the angrier she became, and she stretched out her hand to pull Lu Xinlan's wrist again.
"Listen to mother and stay away from her in the future. Your grandmother wants to compensate her, and mother can't stop her. But don't worry, half of mother's dowry will be given to your eldest brother and half to you. Not a single copper will be given to her."
Lu Xinlan's wrist was so painful that she looked at Zhao helplessly.
"Mom, my sister, if you spend more time with her, you will feel how cute and honest she is. Mom, you have to believe in yourself, the child you give birth to will definitely be good."
Ms. Zhao opened her mouth and wanted to refute, but her daughter's words made her not know how to finish.
To say that Lu Xinran is a dead girl who is vulgar and unacceptable to the eyes, doesn't that mean she is also being scolded?
Thinking of this, she glared at Lu Xinlan angrily.
"I don't know what kind of ecstasy soup that dead girl poured into you to make you all turn towards her."
Lu Xinlan hugged her arm with his backhand and smiled softly.
"Because she is just like my mother. When I see her, I like to get close to her."
Zhao: "..."
Just like her, isn't that also... very stupid?
Thinking of these two words, she was so angry that her teeth itched.
That dead girl, don’t fall into her hands again!
The Queen Mother's birthday was approaching, and Mrs. Pei was afraid that they would make mistakes at the birthday banquet, so she locked them in the mansion to learn etiquette for the next few days.
Especially here with Lu Xinran, because she had to be brought to attend and formally introduce her to various houses in the capital, Nanny Xu watched over her almost every day, either letting her learn etiquette or making her memorize the interpersonal relationships of the various houses in the capital.
Lu Xinran has an excellent memory and is assisted by the melon-eating system.
Aunt Xu said that she could memorize everything last time, and she could answer questions fluently when asked again, which surprised Aunt Xu.
"Girl, you are truly the smartest girl I have ever seen."
Lu Xinran laughed happily: "How about compared with elder brother?"
"Here, the eldest son always studies and practices calligraphy by the master's side. I don't know what the eldest son is like, so I can't make random comparisons."
Aunt Xu responded tactfully. She wanted to say that not everyone could compare to the eldest son, but how could she say something so easy to offend?
What if she had to stay here forever and never return to Mr. Pei? How would she live if she offended her new master?
How could Lu Xinran not know her little thoughts? She just asked casually and was a little curious about this highly praised brother.
"It's a pity that I haven't seen my eldest brother's heroic appearance yet. It should be that my little sister who came back from the country can't stand his eyes."
Nanny Xu was shocked. She wanted to say something, but she felt that it was not her role to talk among the brothers and sisters, so she had to make a mental note to get back to the old lady later.
Lu Xinran has been learning etiquette and rules in the courtyard these days, while Lu Xinlan remembered her words and wondered why Lu Yuanheng had never seen his sister.
When Zhao heard her question, she couldn't help but raise her chin proudly.
"Of course it was my order. I don't recognize that dead girl. If I don't recognize you, my brother will certainly not recognize you either. If you don't recognize her, why don't you meet her?"
Lu Xinlan: "..."
So, the original person who always thought that her elder brother was perfect in all aspects was actually just who she thought he was?
She looked at Mrs. Zhao and met her smug eyes. She wanted to say something, but she didn't know where to start.
"Mom, if you treat my sister like this again, my daughter will really have no face to live in the house any longer."
"What nonsense."
Mrs. Zhao pulled her, stretched out her hand and pulled a piece of material over her body.
"Okay, I know what you want to say. Mother knows it well. Let's take a look at the information first. The fourth prince will definitely attend the Queen Mother's birthday party. You will decide on your marriage next year. You are the one who wants to be the prince's concubine. You can't let that happen. People look down upon you.”
On the morning of August 14th, when the genius was bright, Lu Xinran was dragged out of bed by Aunt Xu to bathe and dress up.
She yawned, her eyes sore and tears kept flowing down.
"Mommy, what are we doing up so early? We can't just go to Ronghui Garden in Chenshi."
"That's when the Queen Mother arrives at Ronghui Garden in the morning. We have to be there at the next quarter."
The quarter is about to arrive, and we have to walk for half an hour on the road. There is no way we can make it in time if we don’t afford it now.
Lu Xinran wanted to scream, but it was so early... The Queen Mother couldn't get up!
Wearing a delicate goose-yellow skirt, a lake-blue gauze outer layer, and a red-yellow shawl, she stood up with a yawn, and the hanging tassels in her bun trembled slightly.
Aunt Xu looked at her elegant and charming dress with satisfaction. Taking her to Ronghui Garden in this way would not embarrass the Shangshu Mansion!
In Pei's courtyard, the ladies and girls from each room are already waiting here.
Lu Xinlan couldn't help but look outside the courtyard with a slight worry. She had been pestered by Mrs. Zhao these days and couldn't find time to see Lu Xinran.
On the occasion of the Queen Mother's birthday, there is no room for any omissions.
She originally grew up in the countryside. With such an identity and experience, she is most likely to be looked down upon by those who praise her and look down on her. If something goes wrong again, it will be more difficult for her to gain a foothold in the capital in the future.
