Chapter 20: Mo Negative Beauty
On the other hand, Lu Jue gave the order last night, and in just one morning, he could complete the things Lu Jue had to do. It can be seen that Lei Gang is very capable of doing things. He spread the portrait he had drawn on the table, which was painted with half of Zhou Ruoshui's body, and he was as sad as if he was.
Lei Gang said: "The Zhou family is a famous family in Hangzhou. Although the wife and the young lady who are still in the boudoir rarely go out, it is not difficult to find this portrait because the two ladies are famous for their beauty."
But Lu Jue was sad when he heard it. His fiancée was famous so that it was despised by his husband's family, and his wedding date was repeatedly postponed. He raised his hand and gently brushed his fingers across the portrait Zhou Ruoshui's cheek last year and murmured: "Fortunately I'm not confused." He closed it and picked it up, but saw Lei Gang looking like he wanted to say something but stopped and said: "If you have something to say, there is nothing to do."
"Yes." This matter was too incredible. He was thinking about how to talk to Lu Jue, but he didn't expect that he asked first and had no worries in his heart. After Lu Jue sat down, he poured tea for him and said, "When I was asking about the wife's appearance, I heard something about her life experience."
When he heard that it was about Zhou Ruoshui, Lu Jue put down the tea that had just been delivered to his mouth and asked, "What's the matter?"
Lei Gang said: "The person who talked about this is a rough mother in the Zhou family. When she was young, she worked as a second-class girl in the yard of Master Zhou and Mrs. Zhou. She had been working in the Zhou family for more than ten years. When she first entered the Zhou family, the wife was not yet born, and the eldest lady was just a toddler."
Although Lu Jue didn't understand what he meant, he felt the strangeness and asked again: "What did she say."
Lei Gang said: "When she entered the mansion, Mr. Zhou was just over thirty years old, but he had only one legitimate wife and no concubines, and even a girl with a wife had never had a wife. Just one year before her wife was born, Mr. Zhou had never left Hangzhou City or Qingyuan. Moreover, Bei Zhi had also inquired about some old people. No actor named Yu Liuli had come to Hangzhou more than ten years ago."
That is to say,,,,,,,,,,,Lu Jue was shocked and stood up suddenly and said, "Who is that Shui'er?"
Lu Jue had never been so ruthless in front of them. Seeing this, Lei Gang smiled and immediately comforted: "You don't have to doubt that the wife is Mr. Zhou's daughter. And the wife is not an illegitimate daughter at all, but the daughter of Mr. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou. The woman said that just one year before the wife was born, Mrs. Zhou was pregnant and had a safe delivery, and she gave birth to a healthy baby girl, and the same day as her wife's birthday."
Lu Jue became more and more excited as he heard it, and hurriedly asked: "Why did Shui'er go from being a second daughter of his relative to an illegitimate daughter?"
Lei Gang said: "That was the 100th day after the wife was born, and the woman was on duty. At the age of 30, Mr. Zhou was very happy, and he was at the 100th day of the wife's banquet. The maid was so busy that she was busy for three consecutive days. After the banquet that night, the people took off as usual. But I don't know if it was because of the busy days in succession, or because people had already planned it, everyone in the mansion was sleeping sank. At this moment, they suddenly broke in.
A masked woman stole the lady who was still in her infancy in this way. The girl guarding the door and the wet nurse who cared for her wife were also severely punished by Mrs. Zhou for dereliction of duty. The woman demoted from a second-class maid to a rude envoy. After the wife was stolen, Mr. Zhou offered a reward of 10,000 taels of gold to search, and sent someone to search for it for two years. But just two years later, Mr. Zhou suddenly stopped looking for it because of the arrival of a person."
It is not difficult to say that Lu Jue is smart. With just a few clues, he tied it together. He clenched his fists tightly and said, "The masked woman in the Zhou family."
Lei Gang nodded and said, "What the adults guess is that woman. Not only did she come back this time, but there was also a girl who came back together. Because the woman who was implicated in the loss of the wife back then kept blaming herself. He heard that the masked woman came with a girl and went to secretly see her. She said that the girl brought by the masked woman was two or three years old, with her eyebrows very much like Mr. Zhou. Just this glance she was very sure that the girl was the lost wife. Bei Zhi was very confused and asked her why she was so sure. She said,,,,,,,,.”
Lu Jue suddenly remembered what Zhou Wenfeng had said to him a few years ago, and stretched out his right hand and said, "Because Shui'er had a defect, that is, there were six fingers on his right hand, and the extra one was cut off by Fuling's father when I was seeking medical treatment in Hangzhou. My father-in-law once said that it was a genetic disease of my mother-in-law's mother-in-law's family. Although the brother and the eldest lady were very lucky, they did not inherit it, but who knew that the second daughter was not so lucky. Back then, I was still wondering why my father-in-law told me this. It seemed that this was not an unnecessary move. The rumor that Shui'er was an illegitimate daughter should have been spread after the masked woman came!"
It is not difficult to say that Zhou Wenfeng has good intentions. He is afraid that his daughter will be hurt, but also politely tells Lu Jue that his daughter is the relative of the emperor so that Lu Jue will not be ruthless and he will treat her badly.
Lei Gang nodded and said, "After saying this, the woman talked about some of the little things about her wife's return to the house. She didn't know whether to talk about her humble position or not."
Lu Jue pondered for a moment and said, "Tell me." There might be something here about why Zhou Ruoshui was so afraid of Zhou Ruoning.
"Yes, although Mr. Zhou explained his wife's identity more than once after his wife returned home, it is naturally difficult to change the rumors. He was afraid that he would become darker and darker, so he hoped that time could dilute everything. Who knew that there would be another hidden danger in this, that is, the eldest lady! After the wife lost her, Mr. Zhou and his wife devoted all their love to this daughter, and the eldest lady had an eccentric temper due to excessive spoiling. After the wife returned home, she became even more angry after she returned home.
Increasingly, Mr. Zhou and his wife were afraid that their wife would be hurt, so they were inseparable from each other. Even if they were not in the mansion, they would be specially ordered to take good care of each other. But even so, the lady still repeatedly looked for trouble, occupied more clothes, fabrics, gold and silver jewelry. Fortunately, the lady suffered some losses and never said anything. Although Mr. Zhou also felt that he was not treating his wife badly, both of them were their own biological daughters, and the palms and backs of their hands were flesh. As long as the lady did not do anything out of the way, she chose to turn a blind eye."
"Then this time, there must be other reasons except that the parents-in-law are not suppressed by no one in the house!"
"It's Mu Zhen. The woman said that when Mr. Zhou and his wife left, Mr. Zhou had looked for Mu Zhen and said that the woman didn't know what she asked her to take care of her. It was something that everyone knew, but the masked woman came quickly to make friends with the eldest lady."
"I understand this, so you Mu Zhen dares to play this trick with me. But I want to thank her for not killing Shui'er. You,,,,,,,,,,,," Lu Jue was about to say something, but was interrupted by the sound of the door opening. Looking at Zhou Ruoshui walked in, he disappeared, his anger was filled with tenderness and pity.
Zhou Ruoshui walked into the private room and saw Lei Gang still there. He gave a blessing gift to each of them, and said with a look of blame: "I am really not the time to come. Now,,,,,,,,,"
As she spoke, Lu Jue had already walked to her side, reached out to stroke her shoulder, and whispered: "We have finished talking, you don't have to leave." He turned his head and said to Lei Gang, "Thank you for your hard work, you go back to the station to rest for a few days. If there is anything, I will pass on you again."
"Yes, Lei Gang took his leave." After bowing to the two of them, he retreated.
After watching Lei Gang leave, Zhou Ruoshui turned around and was about to say something, but Lu Jue walked to the table with his hands in his arms. He said, "Don't stand, let's sit down and talk." After that, he put the snacks on the table one by one in front of Zhou Ruoshui.
Lu Jue's actions made Zhou Ruoshui very confused. He hesitated for a moment before sitting down and asked softly: "Young Master, what are the instructions for me to come."
"Don't be nervous, I want to hear other people's opinions on some things. I couldn't find a suitable person before. I think you may have the same idea as her, so I hope you can help me solve my problems." As he said that, he put the poured plum blossom tea in front of her, sat down and pointed and said, "This snack and tea are very good, you can try it yourself." Although Lu Jue really wanted to recognize Zhou Ruoshui, he still suppressed it for the indescribable hidden secret in Zhou Ruoshui. Now he only hopes to learn something from their conversation so that she can solve her worries.
Zhou Ruoshui quickly got up and said with a blessing: "Thank you,,,,,,,"
"There are not so many rules, just sit and answer." Lu Jue quickly got up and pressed her on his seat, staring at her intently and asked, "I want to ask if you are suffering from waiting for others?"
Zhou Ruoshui asked in surprise: "Why did the young master ask this question?"
Lu Jue said with a lot of blame: "Miss Second Miss has been engaged to me for many years and should have married me, but I have tried excuses to delay it again and again. Although I came here to keep my promise, I was unwilling to be nervous because of my breach of trust. I haven't seen Shui'er for several years. I really want to know what she thinks. However, if I ask rashly, I am afraid that it will hurt her heart."
This sentence was like a sharp blade slashing Zhou Ruoshui's heart. She lowered her head and frowned with melancholy and said quietly: "Since the young master asked this, have you ever cared about it in his heart. He lost his appointment every year and refused the wedding three times. Have you ever thought about how Shui'er should deal with it! Rumors are like sharp blades and knifes stabbing the heart. Since the young master Wuxin didn't give up his hands and let her go, even if the Qinglanguage Buddha, I think the second lady will thank the young master."
Hearing her say this, Lu Jue felt sorry for not feeling sorry for her. He leaned forward on the table with both hands, and said softly with a careless face, "It's a long time, how can you know that you are indifferent? How do you know if I really want to let go?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ruoshui raised his head and looked at him with expectations and asked tightly: "If it is true, why don't you come?"
This question left Lu Jue speechless because he was quibbling at this time, everything was pale and powerless. After a while, he asked again: "It will be hard for someone to wait for."
Zhou Ruoshui lowered his head and smiled slightly, "There are sweet and bitterness, the only thing he hopes for is this person to wait."
It seemed that Lu Jue got the answer he wanted in his heart, and he was so excited that the tenderness on his face became stronger. He sat sideways beside Zhou Ruoshui and asked excitedly, "When did you enter the Zhou Mansion?"
Zhou Ruoshui was slightly stunned when he heard him ask this, looked at Lu Jue in confusion, and said in confusion: "Summer seven years ago."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jue clenched his hands and asked again: "After entering the Zhou family, he has always been a servant, and has been working in the eldest lady's room?" At this time, he hoped that Zhou Ruoshui could open his heart to him, because no matter what difficulties she had, he would solve it for him. But he was disappointed.
Zhou Ruoshui lowered his head gently and said softly: "I have been washing the house. It was because the eldest lady saw that I worked diligently and sent me to serve the young master."
After hearing this, Lu Jue couldn't help but feel stinging in his heart. It wasn't anyone's fault, it was caused by himself. Now he can only say that people's hearts will be seen over time. He stretched out his hand and held Zhou Ruoshui's slightly trembling hand, and said with a firm tone: "Xiao Ruo, I'm not a weak man. Since I'm here, it can prove that I will be responsible. No matter what happens, there can be a way to solve it."
His words seemed to have some magic power, Zhou Ruoshui said in control: "I,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"Okay, okay. We won't talk about this anymore." Asking this will only make her collapse and escape, which is what Lu Jue doesn't want to see the most. He held her hand in his hand and patted her gently, "Then stay by my side, just do nothing and talk to me."
Maybe Zhou Ruoshui was looking forward to this sentence too much and didn't pay attention to Lu Jue's hand in his hand. He said happily: "Is it really OK? I thank you for your son."
It turns out that people can be satisfied like this. Lu Jue is also happy to see her, hoping that the future will be long and there is still time.
How many years have passed, letters and exchanges, love roots are planted early, only one mind is, like a beautiful woman, don’t let your beauty betray you anymore
