Married Thrice to Salted Fish

On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, a side branch of the Lu family, the half-brother of the Marquis of Nan'an, dragged his family from Lin'an to the capital.The two brothers have not seen each other for decades since they separated.Regardless of the relationship between the brothers, there is still work to be done on the scene.

For this Mid-Autumn Festival, the entire Hou family is busy, only the two masters of the Blue Wind Pavilion can be idle.The young master doesn't care about such trivial matters, and the young master has not been in good health since the beginning of autumn.He used to be able to walk two steps down the ground, but now he cannot leave the wheelchair at all, and has to be pushed everywhere.

The side branch of the Lu family sent a message in advance, telling them the time to arrive at their residence.When it was about the same time, Lin Qingyu, Mrs. Pan and Marquis Nan'an greeted the guests at the gate of the Hou Mansion, and saw five or six luxurious carriages slowly approaching from a distance.

Lin'an is a land of wealth and prosperity, and the Lu family is one of the largest families in Lin'an, so it is not a small feat.The leader is Nan'anhou's elder brother and Lu Wancheng's uncle.After the two brothers met, they exchanged polite greetings, far more courteous than relatives, and entered the mansion hand in hand.Lin Qingyu followed behind uninterestedly, and an upright man approached him to talk to him: "This must be Lin Shaojun, right?"

Lin Qingyu didn't respond, and Pan's on the side said: "Young Master, this is the nephew of the Marquis, the cousin of the little Marquis."

"In Xia Lu Baishuo, I am the sixth eldest in my family. If Lin Shaojun doesn't mind you can call me Lu Lao sixth." The man smiled gracefully, "Auntie is well, thanks for remembering me."

This Lu Baishuo was a little too familiar, Lin Qingyu had no desire to get acquainted with this kind of person.

"Why don't you remember?" Pan said with a smile, "Young Master, the Sixth Young Master came to the capital last year to do business, and stayed at the residence for three months. He has a very good relationship with the Eldest Young Master."

This person had such a relationship with Lu Wancheng.

Lin Qingyu faintly had an idea, and nodded to greet Lu Baishuo.Lu Baishuo asked: "Is Wan Cheng's illness better? I came to Beijing this time and brought a lot of supplements that I bought for a lot of money. I hope I can help you."

Lin Qingyu said: "If the Sixth Young Master has nothing else to do later, you can follow me to visit him in the Blue Wind Pavilion."

Lu Baishuo said: "It's very good."

The servants of the Hou Mansion were busy moving things and taking the guests to the guest room to settle down.After Lu Baishuo settled down, he followed Lin Qingyu to the Blue Wind Pavilion.Before entering the room, Lin Qingyu said: "I want to ask Master Six to do me a favor."

Lu Baishuo said politely: "Lin Shaojun, but it's okay to say."

Lu Wancheng has been in good spirits for the past few days, but in order to hide from the guests, he insisted that he had fallen ill again, which was still a kind of disease that could not get out of bed, and he would die if he got out of bed.I thought I could stay away from those messy relatives, but I didn't expect Lin Qingyu to lead him to the door.

"Young Lord, your fifth brother has come to see you."

Lu Wancheng put away his usual casual tone, and put on the demeanor of a nobleman. Just as he called out "Fifth Brother", he caught a glimpse of the person beside Lin Qingyu with an uncomfortable expression. Then he remembered something, and his face showed Smile: "Ma'am, don't lie to me, this is not the fifth brother, it is obviously the sixth brother."

Lin Qingyu narrowed his eyes slightly, and said calmly, "Yes, I was wrong."

Lu Baishuo heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a loud smile, "I'll just say, anyway, I stayed in Lanfeng Pavilion last year for three months, and it would be too heartless for Wancheng to forget me so soon."

Lu Wancheng glanced at Lin Qingyu meaningfully, and said seriously: "Don't worry, Sixth Brother, even if you turn into ashes, I will recognize you."

These cousins ​​are both talkative, and you can't tell anything unusual when you chat with each other.

But this does not completely convince Lin Qingyu.Lu Wancheng never leaves any openings in front of others, and only when he is with his own people will he mention his past undefended.Lu Wancheng didn't want to say it, he just waited.I'm really impatient to wait, it's not too late to intimidate and lure.

The two chatted happily for a while, and then heard the excitement outside.Hualu came in to report that all the relatives who came today came to Lanfeng Pavilion in a swarm, and they said they were here to visit the sick.

Lin Qingyu saw their little thoughts clearly.Undoubtedly, these people came here for the property of the Marquis Mansion. It was false to visit a doctor, but it was true to send off the child.Lu Wancheng married a man and was unable to take a concubine because of his frail body, so he was destined to be childless.If he can adopt his youngest son to Lu Wancheng's lineage, there will be benefits in the future.

When Lu Wancheng heard the noise of children in the yard, he suddenly raised his head and put his hand on his forehead: "Qing Yu, I suddenly feel dizzy, I will hand over the hospitality..."

Lin Qingyu pretended not to hear, sometimes it was a pleasure to watch the salted fish being forced into limbs: "Please come in."

Lu Wancheng: "..."

Many people came this time, including Lu Wancheng's cousins ​​and nephews.Lu Wancheng has a long history in the Lu family, and some people even call him grandpa.These people filled the front hall to the brim, with Lin Qingyu and Lu Wancheng sitting in the main seats.Lin Qingyu sipped his tea alone, not speaking unless necessary, and made up his mind to ask someone to "diligently" once.

Lin Qingyu watched coldly, while Lu Wancheng had to bite the bullet and treat the guests.Although one hundred people are not happy, but if you really want him to do it, he can do it in a seamless manner, and can't pick out the slightest disgrace, just like a scene where the guests and hosts enjoy themselves.

"I heard that the Qingdai Pavilion is still unwilling to come out to meet people?"

"After all, it was the sequel. If such a scandal happened, it would be ashamed to see people again."

"It is said that there is a knife on the head of the character, the ancients will not deceive me..."

Lin Qingyu looked at Lu Wancheng with a smile on his lips, the impatience in his eyes could hardly be hidden, and suddenly realized the joy of teasing salted fish.

Yue Mo sensed his gaze, and Lu Wancheng looked back.In an instant, the impatience in the eyes turned into a breeze, and there was no trace of it.

A cousin of Lu Wancheng said flatteringly: "I see that Young Master looks very good, I think he will recover in a few days."

Lu Wancheng smiled and said, "I accept your good words."

"Once you are in good health, you should take care of your heirs. I wonder what your plans are?"

The one who spoke was the eldest of the Lu family, Lu Baishuo's eldest brother.The words were so obvious that Lu Baishuo couldn't help frowning, and reminded: "Brother, this is the little prince's own business, so let's leave it alone."

The boss of the Lu family didn't seem to be very smart, and said: "This is a matter of the Lu family, and it is closely related to us. Let me ask what's wrong. I heard that the young master is ready to take a concubine?"

Lin Qingyu finally spoke the first sentence: "Where did you hear that?"

The boss of the Lu family laughed and said: "Don't be surprised, young gentleman, it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Although the young master is sick, he is still a man, and he also has emotions..."

Lu Wancheng spread his hands together: "My body has all kinds of emotions and desires. Even if there are, I will give them all to Qing Yu." He turned his head to look for Lin Qingyu's gaze, and there seemed to be spring water in his eyes, "Qing Yu Feather is all my lust."

Lin Qingyu almost choked himself with a sip of tea—what's wrong with Lu Wancheng again? !

Several people looked at each other, and then sighed:

"What did I say? Lin Shaojun is so talented, with a celestial appearance, how can others catch Wan Cheng's eyes."

"Three uncles and three aunts are deeply affectionate, and they are in harmony with each other. I am so envious!"

"May the grandpa and grandma of the hall be united forever, and have a good relationship for a hundred years..."

Lin Qingyu heard the forehead twitch.The instigator seemed guilty and did not dare to look at him, holding a cup of tea to cover his face, with an appearance of "I can't hear anything".

Lin Qingyu interrupted the cheap grandson's eloquence: "Young Master, it's time to drink the medicine."

Everyone wanted to get close to the two of them more, but once these words came out, they couldn't bear the shame to continue disturbing them, and they all got up to leave.

After the guests left, without waiting for Lin Qingyu to say anything, Lu Wancheng let out a "hiss", crossed his arms and rubbed wildly: "Help, I'm so oily."

Lin Qingyu didn't know what "oil" meant, but after contacting the actual situation, he vaguely understood, and sincerely agreed: "Indeed."

In the evening, the Marquis of Nan'an hosted a banquet in the mansion to entertain everyone.Lu Wancheng did not attend on the grounds that he was unwell, and Lin Qingyu also stayed in Lanfeng Pavilion on the pretext of taking care of him.

The evening clouds are all collected, the moon and stars are sparse, and the light is clear and silent.On the stone table in the courtyard are moon cakes, water chestnuts, dates and pomegranates, and a pot of sweet-scented osmanthus honey wine.However, whether it is moon cakes or honey wine, Lu Wancheng can't touch it, he can only watch it to satisfy his greed.

He looked at the moon cakes for a while, then turned his gaze to Lin Qingyu who was aside.Looking at the beauty at night has a special flavor, the long hair is like a waterfall, the clothes are like frost, and the tear mole at the corner of the eye is particularly moving under the moonlight.It's a pity that the beauty's brows were stained with gloom, as if she had something on her mind.

Mid-Autumn Festival is nothing more than homesickness.Lu Wancheng said: "There are so many people in the mansion, it's really annoying. Why don't we go to Lin's mansion for a few days and come back after they leave?"

Lin Qingyu said: "The guests are at home, you, the host, still want to slip away?"

"I have given them enough face today, enough is enough."

Lin Qingyu was noncommittal, held the wine glass in his hand, and asked with downcast eyes: "How did you recognize Lu Baishuo?"

Lu Wancheng casually said: "Guess. I remember that 'I' and Sixth Brother are on good terms. Lu Baishuo was brought here alone by you, so the relationship with 'I' is definitely not simple, so I guessed that he is that Sixth Brother—as expected."

Lin Qingyu nodded, poured himself a glass of honey wine, and stopped asking.

"Qingyu, this is the first and last Mid-Autumn Festival that we will spend together." Lu Wancheng looked at the bright moon in the sky and smiled lightly, "Next year's Mid-Autumn Festival, will you...will you still remember me? .”

Lin Qingyu raised his head, looked at the same round of jade plate as Lu Wancheng, and said: "Although you and I started from a bad relationship, we have come together all the way, and I have regarded you as a bosom friend. A daughter is easy to get, but a bosom friend is hard to find. I ...I will always remember Lu Wancheng."

I always remember... Lu Wancheng?

Lu Wancheng was silent for a long time, then suddenly said: "Last time at Changsheng Temple, you asked me if I had another name, and I said no."

Lin Qingyu clenched his hands: "Yes."

"I lied to you, I still have a name." Lu Wancheng said in a deep voice, "I hope you can remember this name."

Lin Qingyu's eyes flickered, and he seemed a little nervous.Lu Wancheng wanted to make the atmosphere more relaxed, so he started talking nonsense in a serious manner: "My surname is Zhu, and my name is Da Zhuang. In addition to calling me 'Wan Cheng', you can also call me 'Brother Da Zhuang'."

Lin Qingyu immediately lost his expression and got up to leave.

If he doesn't change his nature, he is out of his mind when he is serious with this kind of person.

Lu Wancheng stopped him with a smile: "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore. Actually, my surname is Jiang, and my name is..."

Before she finished speaking, Hua Lu interrupted the conversation between the two with an urgent cry: "Young Master, Young Master, someone is coming from the palace!"
