1979 Did he treat them well?
....
After a while, Lu Zheng let go of Gu Xin.
“Brother Yuanyuan, let’s go into the house and warm ourselves by the fire! It was in the North Park. Other than a few kids who were fast asleep, there was no one else in the North Park. There were only people taking care of them. Let’s go have a chat!” Gu Xin tugged at Lu Zheng’s hand and said.
“Alright!” Lu Zheng nodded.
Then, with Gu Xin in his arms, he jumped down from the tree.
The North Garden of the Gu mansion was indeed very quiet. Most of the people had left, and the servant girls and old women were taking care of the young ones. No one came to disturb them.
Gu Xin pulled Lu Zheng into the cla.s.sroom of the nursery in Beiyuan. The charcoal fire had not been extinguished.
She then got someone to prepare tea and snacks, as if she was going to chat with Lu Zheng until dawn.
“Brother-in-law said that there was a fight in front. You’ve sent the country guarding Duke back, is he busy?” Gu Xin asked.
“I’m fine. I’m just drunk.” Lu Yang said.
“Did he come here today to talk to my parents about our marriage?” Gu Xin asked again.
“I think so! He asked me about it before I came here today.” Lu Zheng nodded, then asked, ” Oh right, Xinxin, do you have any requirements for the wedding? ”
“I don’t have any requests! Grandpa, grandma, and father and mother will arrange it for me! Brother Yuanyuan, let’s not talk about the wedding. Let’s talk about your family!” Gu Xin indeed did not have many requirements for the wedding.
In the past, she would still think about marriage. However, after Gu Hui, Princess Jinghe, and Gu Nian got married, she felt that it should be similar to them. She was not dissatisfied.
“Yes, go ahead.” Lu Zheng did not know what to say about the Duke Zhengguo’s mansion. He did mention it to Gu Xin before, but he didn’t know how to bring it up or what to say.
He believed that no one would dare to embarra.s.s Gu Xin in public after she married him. He would not let anyone embarra.s.s her in secret either.
“Why didn’t you come in just now? why did you stay on the tree? Was she in a bad mood? Is it because of your father?” Gu Xin asked.
“Not all of them.” Lu Zheng shook his head.
At this moment, the maidservant came in with tea and snacks, so he did not continue.
When the maidservant left and only the two of them were left, he said, ” “He was drunk. He called my mother’s name and showed me her portrait. He said that he had drawn many pictures of my mother, and he had drawn an entire secret room. He said it was a secret and he only told me. ”
“I just feel that my mother is already gone, so what’s the point of him doing all this? Could it be that if he pretends to be affectionate now, he’ll be able to let go of the past?”
“Brother Yuanyuan, was it really your father and the Lin family who killed little aunt Jia?” Gu Xin asked.
“I don’t know. My sister doesn’t know. At that time, my sister was still young and didn’t know much. She only knew that her mother was gone, and not long after, Madame Lin married into the family. Less than ten months after she married into the family, Lu Ming was born. In other words, from the time my mother pa.s.sed away to the time Lu Ming was born, it was less than ten months. It was when my mother was still alive that they had an affair. So, what right does he have to miss my mother? What right does he have to keep my mother in mind? It’s disgusting to hear.” Lu Zheng’s face was filled with hatred.
“Does the country guarding Duke treat Lu Ming and Lu ni well?” Gu Xin asked again.
Lu Zheng was taken aback and looked at Gu Xin strangely, not knowing why she would ask such a question.
“Tell me. If you tell me, I’ll tell you why I asked.” Gu Xin poked Lu Zheng.
