For the whole day,
Xia Mu's mother did not find a chance to be alone with Xia Lu for a while,
Because Xiao Cui had been following Xia Lu the whole time.
She was really worried about Jia Zhen's broken leg. Xia Lu also understood her mother's worries. Before she left, she just patted her mother's arm and whispered that it was okay,
She looked at Xia Mu's worried expression,
In fact, she felt a little regretful in her heart,
She really shouldn't have said that she broke Jia Zhen's leg.
When Xia Lu got into the carriage back to Ningguo Province,
The worry on Xia Mu's face was very obvious,
"Tell me, Xiao Lu said that she broke the young master's leg. Is that true or false?"
"Xiao Luer said it's okay, so it's okay. Do you still have to worry about Xiao Luer being at a disadvantage?" Xia Fu was not very worried,
His precious daughter was like him. She would eat anything,
She would not be at a disadvantage,
Think about how smart he was. After he got married,
He took his wife back to the northwest,
Now that he was back, he still had face,
But his former colleagues were a little miserable.
Xia Ji, who was at the side, also nodded fiercely,
With his sister's personality,
She would definitely not be at a disadvantage. It was just that brother-in-law had worked hard. It was really pitiful to actually meet his sister.
Xia Mu's mother looked at the father and son's expressions that said there was no need to worry at all. She could not help but roll her eyes. How could being a girl be the same as being someone else's wife? Before she got married, she saw many girls who were smart and smart when they were girls. They also had the kind of personality that would not be at a disadvantage. But after they got married, they looked taciturn, as if they had aged ten years. Her Husband was still fine. He did not have any siblings, but others were different. Her parents-in-law were all around, and they still had siblings. When there were too many people, it was easy for trouble to arise. Moreover, people's hearts were biased. It was normal for a mother-in-law to ask a daughter-in-law to set the rules and give a concubine to sleep with.
Looking at Xia Mu's expression, Xia Fu admitted defeat. "Okay, okay, okay. In two days, I'll go look for Brother Jing." Xia Fu could not persuade his wife, so he could only compromise.
Xia Mu's expression was somewhat unsightly as she said, "How many times have I told you to call him Count? He has already formally inherited his title, yet you still call him Jing Ge 'er. This is extremely disrespectful to the Count."
"Yes, yes, yes." Xia Fu, who was reprimanded again.
Xia Lu returned to Ningguo Province, of course, first, he went to Ninggyeongdang to pay his respects to his mother-in-law.
"How is everything at home?" asked Madam Jia he asked.
"Everything is fine. Thank you for your concern, Madam. Moreover, the return gift that Madam asked me to bring is really too expensive. Father and Mother feel ashamed to accept it," Xia Lu said softly.
"Those things are just worldly possessions. They are willing to marry you into our Jia family. This is a priceless treasure," Madam Jia He said with a smile. Now she only hoped that Xia Clan would give birth to a grandson as soon as possible. At that time, she could play with her grandson and leave the whole Ningguo Province to Xia Clan to manage. In fact, she was a little powerless to manage Ningguo Province now. Her health had not been particularly good. Fortunately, Jia Lin's wife, Madam Jia, usually helped her deal with it.
Xia Lu blushed slightly and pretended to be shy.
"By the way, today Zheng'er told me that he wants you to accompany him for dinner. It will be more delicious if you accompany him. So, from tomorrow onwards, you can come here to pay your respects in the morning. Then, I will teach you how to manage the household in the morning. In the afternoon, you can go back to the Sakura Temple and practice in the Sakura Temple." Madam Jia He had already planned out Xia Lu's future itinerary.
"But, it is my duty to be filial to my wife. Wife …" Xia Lu's face showed just the right amount of worry.
"Haha, you are so honest. If it were others, they would be too happy to hear that they don't have to come to pay their respects to their mother-in-law." Madam Jia He thought of the Qian Clan in the past. When she heard that they didn't have to come to pay their respects to their mother-in-law, she was so excited that she didn't even want to postpone it. Later, she didn't say that she wanted to show her charity and didn't want the Qian Clan to come to pay their respects to her.
"I am just telling the truth," Xia Lu said respectfully. But in her heart, she thought that Jia Zhen had finally done a good thing. It was simply an anti-human setting. If she didn't have enough to eat in the future, it would be even more tragic. But now, she still had to be humble. If her mother-in-law thought that she colluded with Jia Zhen and asked her not to come to pay her respects to her mother-in-law, her mother-in-law would never let her go.
Madam Jia He was even more satisfied and nodded in her heart. Xia Clan was really virtuous. "Rules are dead, but people are alive. The most important thing for you now is to cultivate your relationship with Zheng'er and have a child as soon as possible. When the time comes, I will be able to play with my grandchildren. Only you can manage this mansion. When the time comes, don't complain about the hard work."
"Yes, I will work hard." Xia Lu tried her best to show that she was very kind and innocent. She completely understood what her mother-in-law meant. After she gave birth to the child, Ningguo Province would be under her control. She only needed to raise her son. Xia Lu thought about Jia Zhen's virtue. Jia Zhen was also raised by her mother-in-law, but later became like that. It was absolutely impossible for her to raise her son. If he became like Jia Zhen again, she would have no place to cry. Moreover, her son was not a commodity that could be exchanged for power. Although Xia Lu thought so in her heart, she still looked very obedient and respectful.
"Well, you have worked hard today. Go back and rest early." Madam Jia He nodded in satisfaction.
"Thank you, Madam." Xia Lu stood up and bowed to Madam Jia He. Then, she left and prepared to go to the Sakura Temple. Xia Lu noticed that her mother-in-law did not ask much about her family. Xia Lu thought for a while. She guessed that her mother-in-law did not believe what she said. Instead, she planned to ask Xiao Cui herself. After all, Xiao Cui was also her spy by her side.
When she returned to the Sakura Temple, Xiao Fei answered and came out. When Grandma was still alive, although the young master was not easy to serve, he was not as difficult to serve as he was today. When she saw that Xia Lu was back, she felt as if she had seen her family and was very enthusiastic.
"Grandma is back." Xiao Fei looked at Xia Lu with bright eyes.
"Well, Xiao Fei, you have worked hard to take care of Master today. Is Master okay?" Xia Lu asked Xiao Fei gently. She wanted to maintain her gentle and virtuous image among the girls in the Sakura Temple.
"It's not hard. Is Grandma tired? Have you had dinner? "Xiao Fei asked quickly.
"I'm not tired. There's no hurry for dinner. I'll go in and see Master first," Xia Lu said.
"Yes." Xiao Fei nodded. Sure enough, Grandma was a virtuous person. When she returned to the courtyard, she did nothing but go to see Master first. However, when she thought about how Master had treated Grandma so badly, she felt that it was not worth it for Grandma.
When Xia Lu walked to the door of the bedroom, she suddenly noticed that Xiao Cui and Xiao Fei were following her. Xia Lu turned her head and said, "Go ahead. I'll take care of Master here."
"Yes." Xiao Cui and Xiao Fei left. Xiao Cui was wondering when she could go to Ninggyeongdang. Just now, Mama Gui had secretly winked at her and asked her to go to Ninggyeongdang when she was free. She had something to ask her.
After Xiao Cui and Xiao Fei went to do their own things, Xia Lu opened the door and walked into the bedroom. She saw Jia Zhen holding a book and reading it. When she got closer, she realized that the book in Jia Zhen's hand was upside down. Xia Lu could not help but laugh.
"Woman, what are you laughing at?" Jia Zhen threw the book on the bed, and her whole person became angry out of shame.
"I'm laughing because you're holding the book upside down and pretending to be reading." Xia Lu smiled.
Jia Zhen pursed his lips and did not say anything. He suddenly felt a little ashamed, so when he sensed the movement outside, he involuntarily picked up the book and pretended to flip through it. However, his attention was on the outside. He was wondering when Xia Clan would come in and did not notice that he was holding the book upside down.
Xia Lu saw that Jia Zhen did not say anything. She thought for a while, sat on the bed, and asked, "Are you angry?"
"Hmph." Jia Zhen felt ashamed and snorted coldly. She was simply heartless. He had done so much for this woman. Not only did he hide that his leg was broken by this woman, but he also hid that this woman hit his eyes. The most important thing was that he pleaded with Mrs. Gu today so that this woman did not have to go to greet Mrs. Gu for dinner. However, this woman laughed at him as soon as she came back. The Jia Zhen felt that his sincerity had been fed to a dog, so he was completely angry.
"Well, I haven't thanked you for today. Thank you for pleading for me so that I don't have to greet Mrs. Gu tonight and can have dinner with you. "Xia Lu felt that this matter could still be maintained, but this small matter could not change her impression of this man in her heart. This man had an affair with his daughter-in-law. She simply could not tolerate it.
"You don't have to thank me. I'm just afraid... afraid... that you won't be full and will deliberately steal my food in the future. Then I won't be full." Jia Zhen was proud. Yes, this was the reason why he pleaded for Xia Clan. He seemed to be unable to beat this female tyrant. If this female tyrant wanted to steal his dinner, he would starve to death. He did not want it.
Jia Zhen completely ignored that by the time Xia Lu came back from Ninggyeongdang, he would have already finished his dinner. There was no need to steal his gun.
Xia Lu rolled her eyes and said, "Anyway, thank you. Are you hungry? Can we set the table? I'm starving. "
