The Survival Path of a Vicious Female Partner

Lu Manman returned to Mingyuexuan alone. The sky was getting dark. Instead of lighting up, she sat on the bamboo couch with her legs and buried her head on her knees. She didn't know she was crying, she only knew her skirt. Is wet.

"I'll go out first, lead them away, and wait for safety before you leave by yourself."

"So, is my cousin willing to advance and retreat with me?"

"This twisting of the foot can be big or small. If you can't properly set your bones, your legs will grow crooked in the future. I'm like this, it's also for your good."

"Cousin, do you know where the peach blossoms are the most colorful and beautiful in this city?"

"Cousin, I'll carry you."

"Cousin, you don't need to think about those extraneous things. Li Zhao has only his cousin in his heart. Except for his cousin, those women are not women, so how can you say that."

"Nothing. My house is so big. I asked my cousin to fold clothes for me just to let my cousin see clearly. There is no third person in my house except you and me. There is no such thing as Jinwuzangjiao."

"Chu Huai openly requested an decree to the Sovereign, this is to disregard your face and reputation, so I also took the opportunity to request an decree from the Sovereign to ask the Sovereign to give you and me a marriage."

"I also know that the sage won’t agree, but I can’t let the ministers think that you were abandoned by King Chu Huai. When I got married, I also helped you express my intentions by the way. I said, I only have my cousin, my cousin. There is only me in my heart. If the Holy Spirit does not allow me, I will not marry for life, and you will not marry for life."

...

Close your eyes, all he thinks in mind is him, what he said, he has walked a dozen miles of mountain roads with her on his back, the peach blossom forest he planted for her, and he tried to poison her in order to exchange blood. , Is the way he rushed in from the sea of ​​fire.

She owed him so much that she would never pay it back in this life.

When Qingzi came back, she saw that there was no light in the house. She thought that Lu Manman was already asleep, so she planned to touch the bed with her hands and cover her with a quilt before leaving, but she didn't want her to hear the house as soon as she walked into the house. A deep voice came from inside, "Qingzi, is that you?"

She was taken aback, and she was still undecided: "Miss, it's me."

"Qingzi, the person who will perform the lion dance tomorrow will be arranged to live in Lufu tonight, as well as the girls in the Huaqunfang. Don't forget, everything will follow the plan tomorrow."

She smeared and walked to the table, looking for the oil lamp while touching the flint, she said, "Don't worry, Miss, Miss has already ordered these things. Qing Zi didn't disappoint Miss. Everything was arranged. Miss. , Since you haven't slept, why don't you light up the light."

"Qingzi, don't light the lamp."

She was afraid of the light, afraid of showing herself like this in the light, Qingzi heard the strangeness in her voice, she approached Lu Manman, and she said, "Miss, are you crying?"

"I didn't cry." She still said so aggressively.

"Is it because..."

Before Qingzi finished speaking, Lu Manman interrupted her, "Qingzi, don't say it."

She understands her current mood very well. She has continued to stay at the General's Mansion these few days. In addition to waiting for the young lady, she is still waiting for someone. They only know that the person who disappeared that night is General Yunhui, but there is another one who does not. The person who was noticed disappeared, and that was Xiao Wu.

"Okay, miss, let's not talk about it, you just tell me if this matter is related to Lu Youran."

"Yes, that's her." She gritted her teeth with hatred, and since the struggle between her and Lu Youran until her death, she would never be weak again.

Qing Zi said, "Since Lu Youran can enter the palace, it means that she has other accomplices, miss, we must be careful in the future."

The two people hug each other in the dark night, like a flat boat in the sea, leaning on their shoulders, resisting the storm on the sea together. She secretly swore a poisonous oath in her heart, Lu Youran, between you and me, either you die or I live.

Neither of them slept this night.

At the hour, Qingzi saw Lu Manman's red and swollen eyes and his increasingly thin body. She frowned, "Miss, why don't you take good care of yourself. After living in the East Palace for a few days, she became thinner and thinner."

Although she lives in the East Palace, she has a lot of food every day, but she can’t eat a bite. She lives on porridge every meal. She misses Xiao Wu’s red jujube soup, and misses him for taking her out to eat in the restaurant. that time. To put it bluntly, she was thinking of him, so she was tasteless.

She said: "Qingzi, today's makeup, painted a bit thicker, will make my face haggard."

She said distressedly: "Miss, your body is so bad, so don't offer that lion dance anymore."

"No, I want everyone to watch. Lu Manman's protagonist's daughter will always be my Lu Manman. Her Lu Youran, no matter what happens, is just a concubine. I must not let her take my limelight."

Qingzi shed tears while putting on makeup for her. After half an hour, she was completely finished.

She looked at the strange self in the mirror. Whether it was Lu Manman before or the original owner, Lu Manman, she had never painted such a heavy makeup. This makeup looks a little amazing.

Although her original disease was concealed by rouge gouache, it could not be completely concealed. The combination of beauty and malaise was just right, and there was actually a kind of **** flower that bloomed in darkness and dawn.

After a while, she said, "Miss, you are so beautiful."

She stood up from the stool, "Qingzi, don't say these useless words, and my aunt should also come later. Go and prepare what you need to do."

"Yes, miss."

After Qingzi left, Lu Manman walked towards the outside of Mingyuexuan alone. As soon as she walked outside, she met Cuiqing. She also happened to hand the calligraphy and paintings in her hand to Cuiqing, and went to the main hall with Cuiqing. Rush away.

Just before dawn, the Lu Mansion was covered with red lanterns, with festive couplets and gilded birthdays written on them.

Prime Minister Lu’s mother had her 80th birthday, and all the officials and petty officials who could come to the capital came. Although it was early at this time, it was already quite a market. In the main hall, the old lady is sticking to the leading cane and is receiving a group of guests with a smile, and Lu Youran today is dressed in pink, dressed like a lady in pink, standing next to her, helping the old man People receive distinguished guests. Every time the old lady receives a distinguished guest, she will introduce Lu Youran to him, saying that she is her little granddaughter.

When Lu Manman entered the main hall, the exquisite appearance and red skirt completely attracted the eyes of all the guests in the main hall. She walked up to the old lady, bowed to her, and lightly opened her red lips. Said: "Grandma, His Royal Highness personally wrote a birthday letter for you. He specially asked his granddaughter to congratulate you on your birthday, and His Royal Highness wishes grandmother a blessing like the East China Sea."

After she said, Cuiqing sent the picture for the old lady. The old lady thought she would hate her when she beat her last time. I won't come to celebrate her birthday. I didn't expect that she not only came, but also brought the birthday character of His Royal Highness.

The old lady's eyes were moist, and she waved to Lu Manman, "Manman, come here."

Lu Manman walked towards the old lady, and naturally squeezed Lu Youran away from the old lady. Isn't she good at pretending to be weak in front of everyone? She was in front of everyone, making her feel weak.

She successfully attracted the attention of the audience. Many princes and noble brothers looked in her direction from time to time, and Chu Li, who had been standing in the corner, his eyes fell on her from time to time.

Someone is already talking, "Is this the Lu Manman, the eldest daughter of the Lu family in Manducheng? I have long heard that she is so beautiful. When we met today, I really didn't get a false name."

"That's right! When she didn't show up just now, I thought Lu Youran could be regarded as a beauty. I didn't expect that Lu Manman appeared on the stage, but suddenly compared Lu Youran, one by one, both of them were beauties. , But when the two stood together, they felt that Lu Youran was a bit ugly."

Their discussion is undoubtedly a knife inserted into Lu Youran's heart, but today's Lu Manman is indeed a bit amazing. She didn't like makeup before. Even if she put on makeup, she painted a light makeup. She just came in today. At that time, she almost didn't recognize her.

Lu Youran felt ashamed. Lu Manman won in her makeup. The maid beside her did make up. If she also painted Lu Manman's makeup, it would be no worse than her.

But after hearing such a discussion, Lu Youran subconsciously moved a few steps away from Lu Manman. Lu Manman smiled at Lu Youran, but her smile was not so good. She said: "Sister, I just came here, you It’s so far away from me. If you let someone who doesn’t ask me see you, you think I’m at odds with you?"

Lu Manman said so, Lu Youran no longer backed away. If she backed away again, wouldn't it be in her arms? Lu Youran smiled and said, "Whatever the elder sister said, Youran just wanted to leave a certain amount of space for her elder sister and grandmother. After Youran knew what happened last time, there was a gap between her grandmother and her elder sister."

As soon as Lu Youran's words came out, some people began to talk again, "You said, what is the gulf between Miss Lu and Mrs. Lu?"

"Who knows! Lu Cheng is very strict with respect to the family affairs, almost forbid the slaves to talk about what happened in the Lu Mansion, once discovered, they will always be expelled from the Lu Mansion. You know, the Lu Family has been officials for generations, and has deep roots. If you were expelled from the Lu Mansion by Prime Minister Lu and in the capital, no one would dare to use it anymore."

"That's right. But after hearing what Lu Youran said, I really want to know what happened between Miss Lu and Mrs. Lu."

Already boldly began to say: "Miss Lu Er, you are really not interesting enough, what do you mean by half of this?"

Lu Youran said with a guilty expression: "Distinguished guests, there is actually nothing serious..."

Lu Manman said loudly, "Sister, since there is nothing serious, don't talk about it anymore. Otherwise, if you say something later, the older sister thought that the younger sister was deliberately discrediting me."

Facing today's Lu Manman, Lu Youran found it a bit interesting. She had conflicts with Lu Manman before. She pretended to be a good person to help her speak. This time she started to confront her, but she likes her initiative. Fight back.

"How can my sister deliberately discredit my sister? It is inevitable that her teeth will bite her tongue, and her family will inevitably have a disagreement when they talk. Grandmother and sister are just because they disagree on one matter, and they make a few words. ."

"My sister said like this. My sister dare not admit it. My sister has never quarreled with my grandmother. It's just that I got sick some time ago and went to the general's residence for a few days after he recovered. Then I was separated from my grandmother for a few days, so I met again. My grandmother misses me, and I miss grandmother too."

When the old lady heard Lu Manman say this, she nodded in relief, and then touched Lu Manman's hair and said, "Manman, the things used to be the grandmother's fault."

"Grandma, there is nothing wrong with you. Manman would also like to thank grandmother. Manman was suffering from smallpox at that time. It was a very correct decision for her grandmother not to allow her father to visit Manman." She said, and looked at Li again. She shouted: "Mother."

Li's standing with the old general's wife, they were surprised by her just after they met Lu Manman. They originally wanted to call her over, but unexpectedly she walked directly in front of the old lady. Li still complained to the old lady in her heart, she didn't want to get too close to the old lady.

Li said: "Man, what's the matter?"

"Mother, didn't you tell me last time that grandma liked to watch lion dance when she was young? Manman listened to her mother's instructions and practiced lion dance."

Li's smile was a little embarrassing. Lu Manman had already said this in front of so many ministers and their families. If she did not admit it, then news of her discord with the old lady would immediately spread throughout the city, and People will also say that Lu Manman is a liar woman.

She nodded and said to the old lady: "Mother, Man Man has just a good body, so she has tried to practice lion dance, but her body has not been very good. If she does not dance well, please ask her mother Haihan. ."

With this call of Li’s mother, the old lady’s eyes filled with tears. Since that incident, she has never called her mother again. Regarding Lu Manman, she knew that she had changed her arbitrariness, but she did not think of how much she was. When the stick went down, she would be so sick, and she did not expect that her health was not good, and she would suffer from smallpox again.

She wanted to explain to them that she was apologizing, but firstly, Li didn't give her a chance, and secondly, she was also an elder, so she couldn't hold back this old face.

The contradiction between them was left in this way. Originally thought they were all a family, the big contradiction was reduced after a few days. The small conflicts are gone for a few days.

But after a few days of letting go of this contradiction between her and Li's, it got bigger and bigger.

In fact, the old lady has lived for most of her life. Just looking at Li's expression just now, she knew that the lion dance was not practiced by Li Manman instructed by Lu Manman. But Li also reluctantly admitted, and this was also an excellent opportunity arranged by Lu Manman. The contradiction between the two of them should indeed be resolved.

The old lady took the opportunity to say to Li: "The old man, this daughter-in-law treats me like a daughter of the old man, and the old man is very pleased!"

Li did not speak, Lu Manman said: "Grandma, of course my mother is thinking about her grandmother's well. My mother asked how Manman was preparing for the lion dance last night. But Manman's body is indeed a little uncomfortable during this period. If you don’t dance well later, don’t blame your grandmother."

The old lady laughed haha, "Don't blame, don't blame, Manman and his daughter-in-law have this heart, it is the greatest happiness of the old man, if Manman is unwell, this dance does not matter."

"This is not good, the words are already spoken, and so many VIPs are waiting to see!"

The old lady smiled again and said: "So, then when Manman waits for a while to dance, be careful."

"Grandma, I heard that my sister also prepared a gift for grandmother."

The old lady looked at Lu Youran. She still lived with her in a yard some time ago. She didn't realize what Lu Youran had prepared for her. She asked, "Youran, what gifts did you prepare for the old man?"

Lu Youran's expression was a little unnatural. For today, she had already started preparing gifts for the old lady. This gift was her own hand-embroidered picture of a hundred birthdays. There are one hundred ways to write birthday characters. She collected these birthday characters and used them again. The gold thread and silver thread embroidered on the brocade by hand. Not to mention the preciousness of this gift, and it was also very careful. She originally thought that just this gift from her could shock the audience, but she did not expect the first sentence from Lu Manman. What was said was that His Royal Highness wrote a birthday character for the old lady by hand.

Even if she worked hard and embroidered, her gift would be inferior to the birthday character handwritten by His Royal Highness, and there is nothing new to say.

Her second gift was a neon dress dance. When she chose this dance, she was thinking about how to make an indelible impression in front of everyone, but she forgot the old lady's love.

The two gifts she originally thought she would win, were actually crushed by Lu Manman. It seemed that she underestimated Lu Manman. But this is the end of the matter, what else can she do except bite the bullet?

Without the words of His Royal Highness, and the lion dance, her gift would be unique. With these two, her gift would not be too inferior. After all, she had been preparing for it for so long.

Lu Youran said, "Grandma, You Ran did prepare a gift for grandma."

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Lan Ying, Lan Ying clapped her hands, and the four maids presented the picture of Baishou. When everyone saw this, there was a stunning look on their faces, except that His Royal Highness's birthday was in front. No one said how good Lu Youran’s gift was. Some people even said: "This picture of a hundred lives is good, but it is not as vigorous as the birthday character written by His Royal Highness."

Lu Youran stepped forward, and she explained: "Grandma, grandson read through the ancient books and found the writing of these hundred kinds of longevity characters. I want my grandmother to be like this hundred-year-old picture, be colorful and live a long life. "

Lu Manman looked at Lu Youran. Without you, the old lady could indeed live to be a hundred years old.

The mother next to the old lady gave a Baishou Tu, and then she cheerfully said to Lu You Ran, "You Ran, I like the gift you gave me very much."

At this moment, the people welcoming the guests outside shouted: "The five princes Chu Ye and Princess Yue sent a pair of emerald cabbage, a night pearl, and a pair of white jade bracelets to bless the old lady for the East China Sea and Shoubi Nanshan."

She didn't expect that Chu Yue and Chu Ye could come, but the arrival of the two of them was a blessing or a curse?
