Chapter 70

"Girl, it's really snowing!"

The carriage was walking on the official road to Liangzhou City. The coachman reminded the guests inside that it was snowing. The maid Hongxing picked up the curtains and saw that snowflakes fell quietly in the sky. Hongxing and his master were both native Suzhou people, and rarely saw snow, especially such large snowflakes.

"Girl, come and see." Hong Xing turned around without receiving a response, but saw her girl leaning against the corner of the carriage wrapped in a cloak, with her long eyelashes hanging down, making her face look like white jade, so delicate that she doesn't look like a real person, but more like the most beautiful porcelain baby you pinch it out.

Since the girl is sleeping, Hongxing will appreciate the snow by herself and will no longer disturb her.

In fact, Chen Jiao was awake. She just had no interest in Xue, or she couldn't be excited about anything now. Anyway, she was only twelve years old and was still far from getting married. Chen Jiao was not in a hurry to consider her marriage, and she didn't want to find a man to marry immediately. In front of her, Chen Jiao didn't want to force herself.

Maybe the Bodhisattva also saw it, so he gave her more time.

At noon, three carriages were parked in front of an inn.

When he learned that the second master of the Pingxi Marquis was sitting in the car, the postmaster came out to greet him in person.

Mr. Lu is a civil servant, gentle and elegant, and respectful to the postmaster. After the greetings, Mr. Lu walked to the second carriage and said softly: "Jiaojiao, come out."

Chen Jiao was ready, Hongxing carried the car curtain, and she lowered her head and stepped out.

The twelve-year-old girl's face was haggard and pale because of the exhaustion of the boat and the car, and her pitiful appearance made people feel even more distressed. Mr. Lu Er felt more pity when he looked at his niece's appearance that looked like his own sister. He personally held his niece's little hand and helped him down. When Chen Jiao landed, he even took care of his niece's cloak, for fear that the snowflakes would fall in.

"Thank you uncle." Chen Jiao said softly.

Mr. Lu smiled and accompanied his niece to the guest room to rest.

After lunch, the group continued to set off and prepared to arrive in Liangzhou City before dark.

In the carriage in the middle, Chen Jiao held the hand stove and silently considered her fourth life.

Then we have to start with the Marquis of Pingxi.

There are three masters in Pingxi Hou Mansion. In addition to the marquis who inherited the title, the legitimate son, Lu Erye and Lu Sanye are both illegitimate. Chen Jiao's illegitimate daughter's mother is Lu Erye's real sister. The brother and sister have a deep relationship, but the brother and sister have a far-fetched temper. Lu Erye is devoted to studying and has gained a civil servant by himself. Although Chen Jiao's mother is a illegitimate daughter, she is more than a tall man. Relying on her beautiful appearance, she wants to be a noble man who comes to visit the Hou Mansion. As a result, the noble man does not take her habit. Chen Jiao's mother is in vain, loses her face and loses the face of the Hou Mansion. In the end, she is hurriedly betrothed to a juren, that is, Chen Jiao's father.

Chen Jiao's father was very talented and was transferred to Suzhou to be an official after high school. Chen Jiao's mother left her hometown, and she always felt that she was low-married and was depressed and unsuccessful. She died soon after giving birth to Chen Jiao. Chen's father was not sad, and took the opportunity to take the daughter who was at the peak at that time. From then on, he was well-off and promoted to the prefect of Suzhou.

Chen's father wanted to be promoted again, so he turned his mind to his daughter Chen Jiao, who was only twelve years old. Chen Jiao completely inherited the beauty of her biological mother, and it was not as good as that. He heard that the eunuchs around the emperor were quite fond of virginity. Chen's father thought that his daughter was petite and small could be considered a virgin, so he planned to take Chen Jiao with him when he entered Beijing at the end of the year.

The original body was smart. When he learned that his father had such an idea, he quickly wrote a letter to his uncle in Liangzhou. When Mr. Lu received the letter, he was furious. After discussing with his brother, Marquis Pingxi, Mr. Lu brought twenty strong soldiers from the Marquis's family to Suzhou to pick up his niece.

The Marquis of Pingxi held an army of 200,000, and was the emperor's most trusted military general. Chen's father dared to secretly consider his daughter. Now Mr. Lu came to him with a fierce momentum. Chen's father dared not continue to sell his daughter for honor, so he obediently handed over his daughter, and his daughter's marriage was all handed over to Mr. Lu in the future.

In this way, the original body followed his uncle to Liangzhou.

But the original body, like her mother, has a problem of being more aware than the sky. The original body is really beautiful. There are four young men in the Marquis of Pingxi. When the twelve-year-old Jiangnan beauty arrived, she quickly captured the hearts of three of the cousins. The original body wanted plum blossoms, and the three cousins ​​rushed to help her pick them. The original body wanted to eat Guo Ji's furong cake, and the three cousins ​​bought her and gave her. Logically, it would be a good life if she picked any one of them. But the original body wanted to marry the only cousin who did not favor her, Lu Yu, the prince of the Marquis of Pingxi.

The original body wanted to be the prince's wife and the future wife, but Lu Yu ignored her. The original body was getting older and older. When she was anxious, she came up with a low-level way to use medicine. In the end, by accident, the medicine was put on Lu Yu's younger brother, Lu Huan, and the two were unmarried.

The original body can only marry Lu Huan. This is because Lu Huan’s father Pingxi Hou gave Lu Erye face. Otherwise, according to Lu Huan’s mother Marquis’s wife Wei, the original body is only worthy of being an aunt.

After getting married, the original body was still thinking about the prince Lu Yu. After her husband Lu Huan noticed it, he could tolerate it at the beginning. When the sweet marriage period passed, Lu Huan gradually could not accept his wife's little thoughts and took several concubines in a row. At this moment, Lu Yu died in the battlefield, and Lu Huan became a new prince. The original body seemed to have finally discovered her husband's goodness and began to compete for favor with the concubines. Unfortunately, Lu Huan had long been disappointed by her. Until she died, she did not give her any favors.

Thinking of this, Chen Jiao sighed helplessly. In the fourth generation, she was really confused. A beautiful face can indeed help women gain many advantages, but relying on her face alone makes men obey you in a desperate manner, which is also a dream.

Before the sky became dark, the Marquis of Pingxi finally arrived.

Chen Jiao is just a junior, and she can't afford to ask her elders to wait for her. Later, Mr. Lu took his niece to each room for a walk.

Mr. Lu first took his niece back to the second room.

The second wife and her two children have been waiting long ago.

"Jiaojiao, this is your aunt." Mr. Lu Er, stood beside his niece and introduced with a smile.

The second wife is a very gentle and dignified woman. When the original body first came to the Marquis' mansion, the second wife also loved the original body very much, but the original body behaved frivolously. She obviously didn't like her cousin Lu Run, but she refused to speak out. Instead, she always hung Lu Run. Lu Run couldn't see clearly in the situation, and the second wife could see clearly. Over time, the second wife naturally didn't like the original body.

Chen Jiao doesn't want to follow the footsteps of her original body. She is currently unwilling to have a marriage, but she lives in the Marquis' Mansion alone. Her uncle and aunt are her last reliance, and she must establish a good relationship. Even if it is not for the sake of future considerations, the couple of the second wife are kind-hearted and deserve her respect and filial piety.

"Auntie." Chen Jiao obediently owed the second wife, "My father is not kind, thanks to his uncle and aunt for taking in it, and his niece has caused you trouble."

The little girl was pitiful and said so sensible. The second lady felt soft and hugged Chen Jiao in her arms and said pity: "What trouble is it? Jiaojiao, don't be polite to your aunt. This will be your home in the future. What are you not used to? Even if you tell your aunt, don't recognize your child."

Chen Jiao nodded.

The second wife touched Chen Jiao's little hand and made sure it was not frozen. She pointed to the two children next to her and said, "This is your cousin, this is your cousin, this is your cousin, your cousin, your cousin is three years older than you, and I have been hoping that you will come soon."

Sixteen-year-old Lu Run and fifteen-year-old Lu Zhen laughed at Chen Jiao together.

Chen Jiao called her cousin affectionately, and her eyes fell more on Lu Zhen's face. She didn't look at Lu Run more. She only knew that Lu Run was a handsome young man like Lu Erye, with a bookish look.

But Lu Run couldn't help staring at this little cousin.

Chen Jiao wanted to change her clothes. The second wife and Lu Zhen accompanied her to Lu Zhen's East Cluster Courtyard. In the future, Chen Jiao would have to live in the wing room here, so it would be convenient for the cousins ​​to get along with each other.

Chen Jiao went to change her clothes, and Lu Zhen whispered to her mother: "Mom, my cousin's face is so tender, I really want to pinch it."

The second wife laughed and pinched her daughter's face and said, "Your is also tender, but the climate in Jiangnan is humid and the water and soil are nourishing people, so it is definitely different."

Lu Zhen said enviously: "I had known that my father should have been transferred to Jiangnan, so our family would have moved there."

The second wife thought of the grandma, who had never liked the second and third rooms. If possible, she also wanted her husband to be an official, but her husband was good at three brothers. According to the Marquis' wishes, he and the third master had been fighting for many years and had to keep a man at home. In this way, it would be impossible for their family to leave.

"Be careful that your grandmother heard it." The second wife reminded her daughter.

Lu Zhen sighed, not mentioning this.

After Chen Jiao changed her clothes, the second wife and her three sons accompanied her to pay tribute to the grandmother.

The Grandma lived in Wanfu Hall. The third and second lady had always had a good relationship. After receiving the news, she also brought the children to wait. Only the Marquis Wei claimed to be noble in his status. The snowy sky was waiting for Chen Jiao to take the initiative to visit her in the main courtyard.

When the grandmother was young, she hated the old marquis who pampered her concubine. She didn't like Chen Jiao's charming grandmother, and didn't like Chen Jiao's arrogant and beautiful mother. Now, seeing Chen Jiao who inherited all the beauty advantages of her previous two generations of enemies, the grandmother still didn't like her, and her attitude was very cold and perfunctory.

Chen Jiao didn't plan to please the lady, and it was enough to try to maintain the proper etiquette.

The third lady has nothing to note. In Chen Jiao's eyes, the fourth young man Lu Che is a naughty child with thick eyebrows and big eyes. However, his sister Lu Ying, Chen Jiao took a look at him twice. There are three girls in the Hou Mansion, Lu Ying is the youngest, one year older than Chen Jiao. Perhaps the original body stole the favor that his brother had put on her. Lu Ying often fucked against the original body, which was a big and small trouble.

"Okay, take it to the main courtyard." The lady said impatiently.

The second wife saluted and said goodbye.

Chen Jiao secretly cheered up. The eldest house had the prince Lu Yu who was unable to ask for it, and the second son Lu Huan who was a divorced couple. The two brothers, Chen Jiao didn't want to provoke him.

Following the second wife into the main hall, Chen Jiao looked at the two young men sitting on the left without a trace.

The closest to her is the second young master Lu Huan, who is seventeen years old, with a sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a slightly dark face. He looks handsome and handsome. He is a martial arts practitioner. When Chen Jiao looked over, Lu Huan also looked over. Chen Jiao immediately lowered her eyes to avoid meeting him.

After a while, Chen Jiao looked at Prince Lu Yu again. When she saw this, Chen Jiao was a little surprised.

Lu Yu is also a martial arts practitioner, but the nineteen-year-old prince is wearing a white dark patterned robe, with beautiful skin like jade, with indifferent eyebrows and eyes. He is cold and arrogant, and has the inherent nobleness of the children of aristocratic families. Today, Chen Jiao has met four cousins ​​in the Marquis's Mansion, but in terms of demeanor, only Lu Yu can truly deserve the three words "Nude Prince".

Just as Chen Jiao was about to withdraw her gaze, Lu Yu suddenly looked over, his eyes sharp, so that Chen Jiao had no time to avoid it.

Chen Jiao forgot to react for a moment.

Lu Yu glanced at her lightly, but it seemed that what he saw was a vulgar thing worthless and no emotion was revealed.

When Chen Jiao walked up to him to greet him and called out "Big Cousin", Lu Yu just responded lightly, alienated and arrogant.
