Family banquet

When Lu Xiangzhi went to find Lu Lingzhi, Ms. Lu had already asked Ye Zhen to meet the other older brothers.

Several of the Lu family's sisters have yet to come, and now all the Lu family's children are standing in the hallway. I don't know why, these few brothers and siblings who are obviously of marriageable age are still single.

The Lu family is already upstarts in Kyoto, and there are many people who want to please their family. I am afraid that these four children have become good candidates for spouses. Now Lu Lingzhi, who is just the minister of the Ministry of War, will be there in two years. Become the Shangshu of the War Ministry, he is Mo Rongzhan's right-hand man.

"This is your second and third brother." Lu Shiming introduced him to the two young men in the hall, the second brother Lu Tingzhi and the third brother Lu Zanzhi, both very handsome and handsome.

Ye Zhen obediently called out to the people, considering his appearance.

As she spoke, Yingying Yanyan's laughter came from outside, and two girls of the same age entered and immediately injected a beautiful scenery into the hallway.

They are both pretty and cute, which makes people shine.

These should be the girls from the Lu family.

The girl Lu Er was born in the big house, the girl Lu Si was born in the second house, and only Lu Shuang'er and Xiao Wu, the five-year-old girl, were born as a direct child.

In the eyes of the Lu family, Ye Zhen was also a direct descendant.

"Yaoyao, do you remember me? I visited you a few days ago." The Lu Er girl is older than Ye Zhen, not as beautiful as Lu Shuang'er, but she also has Xiaojiabiyu's beauty.

Ye Zhen no longer remembers her. Those days she was trapped in the memories of the previous life and the memories of her younger sister, and she was so ashamed that she did not know who went to see her and where she remembered her face. , "Second sister, I just don't remember. Yes, I must remember now."

Miss Lu Si is roughly the same age as Ye Zhen, but two months younger than Ye Zhen, so she is behind her. She is standing next to Madam Lu, looking at Ye Zhen indifferently, not intending to introduce herself to her.

Ye Zhen had already remembered the two girls from the Lu family at a glance. Lu Er looked gentle and smiled at everyone. Lu Si seemed a bit indifferent, and seemed to be looking at her from above, even with her eyes direct. Do not look at her .

Another fifth sister did not come. I heard that I went to Jiangnan with Lu Sanshu, but I don't know when to return.

Lu Xiangzhi, who went to find Lu Lingzhi, also returned, "... Suddenly, someone came from the palace and called for the older brother. The older brother is about to let someone come and say that he will not be back tonight. . "

Unlike Lao Madam Lu and her disappointment, Ye Zhen felt really relieved, very good, there is no need to see Lu Lingzhi so soon.

She was not afraid of him, but ... she still needed time to think about how to confront Lu Lingzhi, who she became her cousin.

The next step was the family banquet. Ms. Lu called Ye Zhen and sat next to her. Next to her was Lu Xiangzhi.

The tutoring of the Lu family is not strict and there is no rule of silence. Ye Zhen is a bit uncomfortable. The education she receives is required by the daughter of the family standards, and she never speaks at the dinner table.

But Ms. Lu asked her what life was like in the border city, or she didn't want to talk, so she had to explain. In the end, she just forgot all the rules that she had learned earlier and talked to him. Happily Ms. Lu. People liked it better.

"The border town is fun, big brother ... Before the fourth brother took me to fight the sparrows, we roasted sparrows in the mountains to eat. I can eat several times at a time. The fourth brother stole my wine. father, but he only let me drink a little, and in summer we would go to the river to fish, the fourth brother is good and bad and he did not come out of the water, I do not know how to swim. I thought something was wrong with him, so I cried to find someone to save him, he jumped out of the water and scared me into the river ... "

After hearing what Ye Zhen said, Ms. Lu smiled and hit Lu Xiangzhi who was sitting on the other side of her, "Bad boy, really necrotic!"

"Grandma, these are all things of the past, you don't know, this girl has a bad stomach." Lu Xiangzhi hurriedly begged for mercy, and suddenly there was laughter from the table.

Seeing Ms. Lu directing her attention to Lu Xiangzhi, Ye Zhen smiled slightly and lay down while she drank.

After she finished the family banquet, Ye Zhen was already a bit tired. She had just taken care of herself. She spent most of the day trying to please Ms. Lu, but now she can't take it anymore.

Pei felt sorry for her

daughter and took her to sit next to him, seeing that her expression was not so bad, he whispered: "I'll be back in a while."

Ye Zhen looked into Pei's loving eyes and felt uneasy. She had no feelings for all the members of the Lu family, but her younger sister was raised by the Lu family. The people she should hate were not the Lu family, but rather Lu Lingzhi and Lu Shuang. er.

Old Lady Lu noticed the tiredness on Ye Zhen's face, and told her to go back and rest first, "I just got better after all, so I can take care of that these few days."

Ye Zhen couldn't take it anymore, so she withdrew and returned to her little courtyard.

Several princes and friends also came out of the hall and drank some wine in the warm pavilion on the east side.

Lu Tingzhi held the wine glass and touched Lu Xiangzhi, "Little Si, are you okay in the border city these years?"

"Okay, at first I didn't get used to life in the border town, but gradually I fell in love with it." Lu Xiangzhi said with a smile, "The second brother should go to the border city if he gets the chance." in the future, and I'll show you everything. "

"It is your temper that broke the third sister." Lu Tingzhi smiled.

"Haha, bro, you are wrong. Yaoyao has been a girl who cannot be inactive since she was a child. I don't need you to teach her to be bad. She has been smashed and smashed. On the first day of girls' school, she hit it, "Lu Xiangzhi said with a great laugh.

Lu Tingzhi laughed when she heard the words, "When the third sister was born, haven't you gone to the border city yet?"

The third uncle's family left for the border town fourteen years ago. He recalled that he never heard that his third aunt was pregnant. How could he have a daughter shortly after arriving in the border town?

Lu Xiangzhi went to the border city with his parents when he was three years old. Lu Shiming was in the medicine business and Pei was a doctor. In fact, he had forgotten why there was a younger sister in his family. It was only a few months.

"I don't remember anything so long ago. However, when my sister was born, she was not in good health. My mother took care of her for a long time. My father said it was a bumpy road at the time and accidentally left the root of the disease in the mother's womb ... Fortunately, she was raised later. It's okay, "Lu Xiangzhi said with a smile, not wanting others to know that Yaoyao was adopted.

Yaoyao herself had been sad for so long after knowing it. At the time, she was shy when she saw him, not as generous and lively as usual. He knew she looked carefree, but in reality her mind was sensitive and delicate. Now, in the great house of the Lu family, he does not want others to look down on her.

Lu Tingzhi nodded, there was no doubt in her mind.
