Xia Lu returned to the house, but he did not see the Jia Zhen in the outer hall,
He went to the inner bedroom,
Only then did he find the Jia Zhen. He saw that he was holding a book and reading,
He looked like a gentle scholar.
"I didn't expect you to be so hardworking." Xia Lu walked over with a smile.
"When did I not work hard?" the Jia Zhen expressed his pride,
One had to know that in the past..,
When grandmother was still alive..,
He had never worked so hard. Grandmother said that even if he did not work hard, everything in the house would be his in the future. If he did not have the talent for reading, then he did not have the talent for reading. There was no problem. He felt..,
He had read more books in the past two months than he had in the past twenty years.
Of course, this was an exaggeration,
Even if the Jia Zhen had not worked hard in the past twenty years..,
But the books in the past two months..,
Could not compare to the books he had read in the past twenty years..,
Not to mention anything else..,
Just say the Jia Zhen's words..,
To be able to write like this..,
It also took a lot of effort.
"You're the best," Xia Lu praised carelessly. Men were just like children. They liked to keep praising. Of course, this praise couldn't be too excessive. Otherwise, it would make him arrogant.
"Humph, you have good taste." The Jia Zhen was proud. "By the way, what are you holding?" The Jia Zhen noticed the box that Xia Lu was holding carefully and asked.
"It's the Bodhisattva that Madam invited for us. We'll move it to the small temple later." Xia Lu carefully placed the box with the Bodhisattva on the table and rubbed her hands. Although she did not feel that it was heavy, her hands were still a little sore after carrying it all the way.
"What Bodhisattva did you invite?" The Jia Zhen took the box and opened it. It was a statue of Guanyin.
"Don't break it. Madam said that it's very efficacious." Xia Lu took the Bodhisattva back, afraid that Jia Zhen would drop the Bodhisattva. Although she was an atheist in the modern world, she had not transmigrated back then. She was reborn with her memories, and she was reborn in a book. It was already quite fantastical. The key was that this book was also quite fantastical. The Wood and Shi Qian Alliance, the Divine Ying Attendant, and the Illusion Fairy made Xia Lu respect them.
"Heh, what's the use of begging for this? If you want children, shouldn't you be begging me? " Jia Zhen said that if he didn't work hard, even if Bodhisattva blessed him, this violent woman from the Xia Clan wouldn't be able to conceive a child. However, since this violent woman from the Xia Clan wanted to conceive his child, he would satisfy her.
Xia Lu raised his eyebrows. This guy knew quite a lot. "How do you know that praying to Bodhisattva is for the sake of giving birth to a child?" Xia Lu was a little curious. This guy didn't seem to be so smart.
"What's so hard to guess? Although Guanyin Bodhisattva is very compassionate and merciful, she is also known as the child-giving Guanyin. Madam basically doesn't lack anything in her life. She just hopes that I can have a child so that she can have a grandson. This is her only wish." Jia Zhen shrugged. Although he didn't care much, he still understood his mother.
"Impressive. I'll send the Bodhisattva to the small Buddha hall first," Xia Lu said.
"Okay, go ahead." Jia Zhen picked up the book and slowly read it. Suddenly, he remembered that the violent woman from the Xia Clan hadn't finished writing her calligraphy yet. When she came back, he would let her make up for it.
Xia Lu placed the Guanyin statue in the small Buddha hall. Then, he burned an incense stick and prayed in his heart, "Compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva, please bless my mother-in-law so that she can have a child within this year. Please …"
After a while, Xia Lu came out of the small Buddha hall. When the Jia Zhen saw Xia Lu come out, he said, "I told you that you might as well beg Grandpa more. After you beg Grandpa, you can get pregnant." Jia Zhen smiled.
"Haha, I also want to beg Grandpa, but Grandpa doesn't have the strength to do it now. What a pity. So, I can only beg Guanyin Bodhisattva." Xia Lu looked innocently at the Jia Zhen's lower body. It was as if he hadn't been taught a lesson. She didn't want to say such dirty words in front of the Bodhisattva, but now the Bodhisattva was sent to the small Buddha hall. When it came to insulting people, she had never lost.
"Xia Clan, what do you mean?" The Jia Zhen was so angry that he ground his teeth. This woman dared to say that he couldn't do it. He couldn't tolerate it.
"What I mean is what I mean. Am I not powerless to do it?" Xia Lu blinked and looked at the Jia Zhen's lower body. The third leg was indeed the lower body, and the broken leg was also the lower body.
The Jia Zhen also knew that this violent woman from Xia Clan said that his leg was broken. However, her words and actions made him feel that she was saying that his thing couldn't do it. This was a matter of a man's dignity. "Woman, just you wait. I'll do you tonight." The Jia Zhen was so angry that he choked.
"Your leg doesn't hurt anymore?" Xia Lu raised her eyebrows.
"So what if it hurts? It's a piece of cake to do you, "the Jia Zhen said stubbornly.
Xia Lu rolled her eyes. Just as she was about to say something, Xiao Fei knocked on the door and came in. Xia Lu quickly sat opposite the Jia Zhen and pretended to be virtuous. The Jia Zhen saw that Xia Lu changed so quickly and rolled her eyes. She didn't say anything, but the corners of her mouth, which were covered by the book, were slightly raised.
"Grandma, Master, Xiao Cui fainted." Xiao Fei was very anxious. Although she didn't like that Xiao Cui often ran to Ninggyeongdang to report to Madam, she was still worried when she saw her unconscious in the courtyard.
"Master." Xia Lu looked at the Jia Zhen with a worried expression on her face.
"Send her back to her room and find a doctor to take a look at her." The Jia Zhen's voice became extremely cold, and the smile on her face disappeared.
"Yes." Xiao Fei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly went out.
"How did Xiao Cui offend you? Although she's not very sensible sometimes, she's still young, so it's inevitable that she's a little immature. Seeing that she was given to me by Madam, and that she's usually quite nimble and pretty, I'll just let it go if she makes a small mistake," Xia Lu said.
"Oh, she's still young. She's already 16 this year, the same age as you. She likes to take advantage of opportunities and slack off. Now she's even betrayed her master. If it were in the past, such a girl would definitely not be allowed to stay. Now I'm just punishing her a little. It's letting her off lightly."
"But she was sent here by Madam. Everything she does is according to Madam's orders. How can a little girl like her disobey Madam's orders?" It was not easy to be a girl in ancient times. Xia Lu did not want to dwell on it. After all, she was not in charge of Ningguo Province now. Once she was in charge, this kind of thing would definitely not happen again.
"You already knew?" Jia Zhen was surprised.
"Is it strange that I already knew? After all, I have to serve Madam's breakfast every day. Sometimes when we have conflicts, Madam will persuade me a little the next day. Then I know that someone in this courtyard told Madam about what happened between you and me. After careful observation, I'll know that it was Xiao Cui. She didn't do it very secretly. "Xia Lu was also very touched by Xiao Cui's intelligence. Although she was sent by her mother-in-law, no matter what, she was still a spy. She went to report to her mother-in-law so openly, as if she was afraid that others would not know that she was the person in charge of this mansion.
"Why would I tell you? Can you tell Madam not to send people to Sakura Temple?" Xia Lu found it funny.
Jia Zhen pursed his lips and did not say anything. However, it was obvious that he was unhappy.
"I say, that's more or less it. She's such a delicate beauty, yet you're so ruthless. You're really something." Xia Lu, who didn't understand why Jia Zhen was so angry, didn't get it at all.
"Sure enough, you've revealed your true colors now. Xiao Cui can't stay. I'll report to Madam tomorrow and ask her to change all the girls in this courtyard." Because Xia Lu did not understand why Jia Zhen was angry, Jia Zhen also successfully misunderstood the situation. He remembered that Xia Lu was interested in girls earlier. He suddenly had a sense of crisis. He felt that he was being cheated on.
