After Xu Nuo said goodbye to Xiao Yuan, he walked through the busy market without any nostalgia for the cheers and the sound of firecrackers. He found a place to change into women's clothes and then returned to Xu's house.
As soon as she entered the inner courtyard, she saw Mrs. Lu, who was wearing purple lilac-patterned sleeves and exquisite jade ornaments, waiting anxiously in the verandah.
When Mrs. Lu saw Xu Nuo coming back, she hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Xu Nuo's hand and said, "Liu Niang, did you meet anyone on the road?"
Xu Nuo shook his head in confusion, wondering why Mrs. Lu was so anxious. Then he held Mrs. Lu's cold hand and asked, "Mom, I haven't met anyone I know all the way back. What happened in the house?"
In order to take a shortcut, she did not go through the hanging flower door, but went through the door where the kitchen of the house was purchased.
After walking this way, the path is much different from entering through the hanging flower door.
Lu's appearance was originally very beautiful, but now she has a frown and a bit of worry in her expression, but she has a Western charm. It's just that she is no longer the vulnerable person she was after losing her daughter. After hearing Xu Nuo say that she hadn't met anyone, she calmed down a bit. As soon as she raised her eyes, the previous emotions on her face were wiped away, and she smiled slightly. The meaning is melted in the spring light, elegant and gentle.
"Liu Niang, do you know about the tea ceremony competition in the capital?" The two walked hand in hand for a while, and after entering Yingcheng Courtyard, Lu suddenly asked.
Xu Nuo nodded, and at the same time told Ms. Lu what she learned about the tea man competition from Ye Qingchen a month ago and asked Xu Gucheng about it.
Finally, she asked: "Mom, what's wrong? I looked at you earlier and looked a little bad."
Lu shook Xu Nuo's hand and motioned for her to go into the house before talking.
Promise understanding.
After the two entered the house, Grandma Li dismissed the serving maids and stood outside the door, leaving room for Mrs. Lu to talk.
"Liu Niang, did you have any trouble with the Lord Jiaren County earlier?" Madam Lu asked as soon as she sat down.
When Xu Nuo heard Lu's question, he knew that today's matter must be related to the Lord Jiaren County.
She has been in the capital for half a year, and if she wants to have fun with anyone, it is probably the Lord Jiaren County and the bastard.
"Mom, how could I have any trouble with Lord Jiaren County? We don't see him a few times on weekdays. What happened today? Why is it related to Lord Jiaren County?"
Although he promised not to blink when he lied, Lu had many connections in the capital. She also knew some things, but she had promised not to tell them, and she would not ask further questions. Then he told the story about the invitation posted by Lord Jiaren County today to participate in the tea competition in two days.
Xu Nuo snorted in his heart after hearing this.
Previously, the Lord of Jiaren County caused trouble for Qiyun Society's Cuju performance in the palace, so she used a trick to make the Lord of Jiaren County vomit and have diarrhea.
Later, in order to vent her anger on Lu Jiuniang, she used the hosta to annoy the head of Jiaren County and the bastard. Afterwards, no reaction was seen from the two of them.
Later, after looking for someone to inquire, I found out that after that incident, the Lord Jiaren County and the bastard had a falling out.
Although Jiaren County Lord seems to have no desires, he is by no means a person who does not fight back after suffering a loss. Now it seems that Jiaren County Lord is waiting for this tea man competition.
After listening to Lu's words, Xu Nuo probably understood what happened. He took Lu's arm and asked with admiration and affection: "Mom, how did you push away the giant Buddha of Jiaren County Lord?"
When Mrs. Lu saw Xu Nuo's cleverness, she immediately laughed. He gently grabbed Xu Nuo's ear and asked, "How did you, kid, know that my mother turned down the competition?"
"Mom, I have confidence in you. You are so smart, how could you not refuse an invitation from Lord Jiaren County?"
Xu Nuo then asked carefully and found out that less than half an hour after Xu Gucheng left today, people sent by Jiaren County Lord came to Xu Mansion.
Invitations from Prince Ning's Mansion were always delivered by a servant, but this time it was delivered by the nanny of the Lord Jiaren County.
Everyone in the capital knew that the nanny of Lord Jiaren County was a powerful character. Not to mention her round waist and fat body, her mouth could make people kneel down and beg for mercy.
As soon as Lu saw this form. Then you know what the Lord Jiaren County is up to.
So he didn't even accept the invitation. He said that it was difficult for the Xu family to receive guests today and asked the nanny of Jiaren County Master to leave quickly.
The wet nurse got an order from Lord Jiaren County to cause a scene, and she had to force Xu Nuo to participate in the tea ceremony. He just sat on Xu's door and started cursing.
He said that Xu's family was rude and did not treat guests well, and he cursed and cursed Xu Gucheng's way of being an official.
Lu immediately asked the guards to capture the nanny of Jiaren County Lord, tied her up and threw her into a carriage, and had her sent back to Prince Ning's Mansion.
Promise to worship Lu for a while. She kept saying, "Mom, you are so amazing." As she spoke, she gave Ms. Lu a pat on her back and shoulders.
Lu smiled and asked Xu Nuo to stop, and asked seriously: "Mom, I'll ask you again, did you have any unpleasantness when you were getting along with County Master Jiaren? If you didn't have any unpleasantness, then the evil person you are today would be in vain."
"Mom, you all know why you have to let the child say it. The child will not let you, a wicked person, suffer in vain." After Xu Nuo finished speaking, he looked deeply at Lu, feeling inexplicably grateful in his heart.
Since the head of Jiaren County dared to invite her, he was sure to make her look embarrassed.
Naturally, she couldn't go to such an invitation.
How could anyone jump into the pit by themselves?
Lu decisively declined the invitation today, which undoubtedly alleviated a lot of trouble.
When Xu Gucheng came back in the evening, his first words were: "Mother, you haven't been wronged today, right?"
Although today is the day when the imperial examination results are announced and the news is almost overwhelming, in just one day Xu Gucheng has already heard someone say that the second wife of the Xu family is a tigress.
"How could I be wronged? I'm afraid the people who were wronged were people from Prince Ning's Mansion." Mrs. Lu smiled and took a towel to clean Xu Gucheng's hands and handed it to him.
"That's good. Tomorrow the new Jinshi will be paraded through the streets. If Liu Niang wants to see it, let her go out and play." Xu Gucheng thought that Xu Nuo had gone out earlier than him this morning, so he felt that she was interested in this matter, but he didn't know that she was Pulled out by Xiao Yuan.
"Well, I asked Nanny Li to help her prepare. It's nice to watch the parade at Wanxiang Tower, but she's just a young lady, so it's not appropriate to go alone anywhere." Mrs. Lu suddenly blushed as she spoke.
Back then, she went to the private room of Wanxiang Building to watch the Jinshi Parade. When she saw Xu Gucheng coming on horseback, she threw the purse she had embroidered in her hairpin to him.
Time flies by and now they have three children.
Xu Gucheng smiled silently, stretched out his hand to tuck the broken hair behind Lu's ear, and said: "Just let Erlang accompany Liu Niang. I think the fifteenth son of the Ye family is also here, so let them go together."
"I have thought carefully. I would like to send someone to inquire about the affairs of Lord Jiaren County here. Maybe it is more than that." Thinking of her second son's calm nature and Ye Qingchen's promising youth, Lu suddenly felt that I promise that traveling is very safe and there is no need to worry.
Little did they know that the most powerful of the three, the one that no one needed to worry about the most was Promise.
"Of course, our family will stay away from this matter if we can. If it gets into trouble, we won't be able to stop it." Xu Gucheng had already sent Suye to ask during the day, and he was very cautious about this matter.

I finished the code in a hurry and haven't modified it yet. Let's take a look first. (To be continued.)
