Reborn on the day of marriage! After the marriage exchange, the elder sister went crazy

Seeing Lawrence Lu, Li Jinglan stood up: “Why is Zhongyu here? Didn’t I tell you to wait for us at home?”

Lu Zhongyu bowed respectfully and said, "I received the letter that you were coming to the capital, and I couldn't sit still, so I asked the housekeeper to go to the city gate to pick you up."

"There were too many people at the city gate. We watched helplessly as your ox cart missed us and chased us all the way to Xiaohuaishu Hutong."

After Lawrence Lu finished speaking, he looked at Lu Guanyu and said, “Little sister, I’m here.”

When Lu Zhongyu and Li Jinglan were talking just now, Lu Guanyu was still able to stand properly. When he heard the word "little sister", Lu Guanyu felt warm in his heart.

She took two quick steps and took Lawrence Lu’s hand: “Second brother, I miss you.”

The voice was choked with sobs.

When Lu Guanyu lowered his head, the white jade hairpin on his head caught Lu Zhongyu's eyes.

My sister's hair is shiny black and combed meticulously to the top of her head.

She was wearing a light green cross-collared jacket and a milky jade-colored pleated skirt, with only a hint of the hem showing.

The clothes are novel in style and made of exquisite fabrics.

She also wore a gold bracelet on her wrist.

Looking again, there are two white cloaks draped over the chair.

Lu Zhongyu knew that his sister was still wearing mourning clothes.

Looking at Li Jinglan again, she was also dressed simply and elegantly, with a white magnolia hairpin on her head.

It is also mourning clothes.

Four years of waiting was enough after both parents passed away.

But the way my sister-in-law and younger sister dressed proved that they were still mourning according to ancient rituals.

This is a six-year mourning period.

Lawrence Lu returned his gaze to Lu Guanyu and chuckled, “You’re so old, and you still cry when you see your brother.”

Lu Guanyu sniffed, feeling that all the warmth he had just felt for Lu Zhongyu was swept away by these words.

He snorted, "Luckily I still thought of you and prepared a gift for you."

"What's the gift?" Lu Zhongyu asked.

Lu Guanyu turned his face away and ignored him.

Lu Zhongyu knew that he had made his sister unhappy, so he turned to the other side and saluted: “Good sister, tell me, what is the gift.”

Lu Guanyu snorted again and turned to the other side.

Lu Zhongyu was so anxious that he kept circling around Lu Guanyu.

Seeing the brother and sister quarreling, Li Jinglan couldn't help but laugh.

He stepped forward and greeted the Wang family’s housekeeper, “Thank you for taking care of them these days.”

"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it." The Wang family's housekeeper turned half of his body to the side, not daring to accept the gift.

This time, Li Jinglan will take Lu Guanyu to live in Beijing for a few days to study the eating habits of the people in Beijing.

By the way, I also brought some gifts from the Wang family for their two sons.

Of course, the Wang family's housekeeper did not let them live outside and invited them to live in the Wang family.

This was Li Jinglan's first time to come to the Wang family's courtyard in the capital.

This courtyard was built for the imperial examination.

There are many small courtyards in the courtyard, which makes it convenient for relatives and friends to come to Beijing to take the imperial examinations.

The courtyard where Lu Bozhou lived was next to the one where brothers Wang Zhenyan and Wang Yongqing lived.

After Li Jinglan entered, she found that the main room in the courtyard had been converted into a study, with a bedroom inside, which was convenient for reading and writing.

There are piles of books on the long table by the window.

Next to the books, there is a small box.

In the box was the letter she had written to Lu Bozhou some time ago.

Li Jinglan was holding the letter when the autumn wind happened to blow.

The early autumn wind blew in from the window, fell on the letter paper, and the letter paper flew into her arms.

Li Jinglan couldn't help but laugh.

She and Lu Guanyu did not live in this courtyard, but moved to the courtyard next door.

After dinner, Lu An talked a lot about the capital, and Lu Zhongyu supplemented his comments.

Li Jinglan then realized that Lu Bozhou and the Wang brothers had never left the house except to take the imperial examinations and to visit Zhou Jin.

Later, Zhou Jin also moved into the Wang family courtyard.

The four of them spend every day together reading, discussing, eating and sleeping.

"The courtyard with the word 'ruixue' written on it is where Mr. Zhou lives," said Lu An.

If nothing unexpected happens, Zhou Jin will definitely pass the exam.

Wang Zhenyan and Wang Yongqing are in some danger.

In their previous life, the two brothers took the exam several times before they passed.

I don’t know what will happen in this life.

Li Jinglan had no idea whether Lu Bozhou could pass the imperial examination.

The provincial examination lasts for nine consecutive days, and students are not allowed to leave the examination room during this period.

The provincial examination had not yet ended, and Li Jinglan and Lu Guanyu did not stay at home.

Instead, he traveled around the capital city in an ox cart.

See what food sells best in Beijing.

After returning in the evening, the aunt and sister-in-law began to summarize.

Lu Zhongyu and Lu An waited at the gate of the Imperial Examination Hall every day, waiting for the day it would open.

In the midst of the busyness, August 17th arrived.

The last day of the provincial examination.

Although Lu Bozhou looked listless, he was in very good spirits.

The questions asked this time are all within their research scope.

Zhou Jin's learning ability is better than theirs.

Share your own study skills with them: the strategy of solving a large number of questions.

Zhou Jin said: "The test questions are nothing more than from the books of Confucius and Mencius. We just need to study the books of these two saints thoroughly."

"I have studied the eight-part essay for several years and found that there are certain rules in the opening, transition and continuation of the eight-part essay."

Following Zhou Jin's method, the four people's efficiency in solving the problem was greatly improved.

Sure enough, the questions in this exam were within their expectations.

How could this not make Lu Bozhou happy?

After returning home.

Li Jinglan invited Doctor Xiao Hu to come and wait at home.

After checking the pulses of the four people, Doctor Xiao Hu stroked his beard and said, "You are just tired. Just take a few days of rest. Eat less these days and don't eat too much."

Doctor Xiao Hu didn't even prescribe any medicine and just left with the consultation fee.

Lu Bozhou didn't expect that Li Jinglan would come to the capital, and he was surprised and delighted.

"When did your sister-in-law come?" He couldn't wait to go back to the yard to see Li Jinglan.

"I came here a few days ago." Lu Zhongyu looked at Zhou Jin again, "Brother Zhou Jin, the bath water is ready."

"Okay, okay." Zhou Jin smelled bad after not taking a shower for nine days.

Knowing that Lu Bozhou must want to see his wife, he smiled and returned to his courtyard.

Wang Zhenyan and Wang Yongqing also returned to their own courtyards.

Lu Bozhou took two steps at a time and took three steps at a time.

The hurried footsteps rolled up the fallen leaves on the ground.

Entered his courtyard.

At first glance, I saw a beautiful figure standing in the yard.

She was standing under the camphor tree in the yard.

The wind blew her hair and gently caressed her cheeks.

"My wife!" Lu Bozhou took a few quick steps forward, trying to hold Li Jinglan's hand.

Li Jinglan was about to speak.

Lu Guanyu jumped out from behind the tree and shouted happily: "Brother, you are back? Did everything go well in the exam?"

She walked up to Lu Bozhou and asked questions non-stop.

The gentleness on Lu Bozhou's face suddenly turned into helplessness: "Xiao Yu'er..."

Lu Zhongyu entered the courtyard and pulled Lu Guanyu away: "What do you want?"

Lu Guanyu was not convinced, "I am glad that my elder brother is back."

"You can be happy, but you must know when to stop." Lu Zhongyu stretched out his hand to close the gate.

Then, the sound of their argument gradually faded away.

It should be getting further and further away.

Lu Bozhou opened his arms and embraced Li Jinglan, "My dear, I miss you day and night."

Li Jinglan was surprised that Lu Bozhou would suddenly hug her.

The body resisted for a moment.

But Lu Bozhou held her too tightly.

He put his head against Li Jinglan's hair, and the fragrance wafted from Li Jinglan's body.

But I don’t know what kind of fragrance it is.

I just feel it refreshing to my heart.

It intoxicated him.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"My lady, you smell so good..." Lu Bozhou murmured to himself, and felt his mind relax.

After this sentence, Li Jinglan could not hear the second one.

After a moment, she coughed, "Husband?"

"Husband?"

A light snoring sound came from Lu Bozhou's nose.

Li Jinglan shook her head.

Lu Bozhou fell into a deep sleep.

After getting up and eating, I continued to sleep.

I slept until the afternoon of the next day.

"Madam?" When he woke up, there was no one in the room.

Lu Bozhou walked out of the house.

Hearing that he woke up, Lu An hurried in from outside the yard: "The lady and the girl are stewing soup in the kitchen."

Lu Bozhou walked towards the kitchen.

There was a stove in the kitchen yard, and a large iron pot was on the stove.

The soup in the iron pot was bubbling up and down.

Li Jinglan and Lu Guanyu were sitting by the stove, talking about something.

When I got closer, I heard them discussing coal.

"This piece of coal can actually stew such a big pot of broth. The fire is too strong. Sister-in-law, can we stew some coal in winter? How much do you think is a good amount to stew?"

Li Jinglan smiled and said, "At least two thousand kilograms. We have to burn earth dragons in winter. We can just buy the cheapest bituminous coal for earth dragons."

At this moment, Lu Bozhou seemed to see the scene when his father and mother were still alive.

Every early fall, my parents discuss what to store for the winter.

Then my mother would complain that there was nothing here and there was not enough pepper in the hotpot.

My father would try to comfort my mother and say that he would make ice cream for her in the summer.

That's why my mother committed suicide after my father died!

He loves her so much.

She loves him so much.

Lu Bozhou thought foolishly.

Feeling as if there was someone behind her, Li Jinglan couldn't help but look back.

I saw Lu Bozhou at first glance.

Just as he was about to speak, someone came running over from outside.

"Madam, the bamboo shop in our county is on fire!"

"What?" Li Jinglan stood up suddenly. "Is anyone okay?"
