Chapter 285 Let it be
The journey back to the capital was not fast, and without any rest at the post station, the group arrived back in the capital in the evening of the second day.
Song Junhua originally wanted to go directly to the palace to see the emperor, but Song Junyan insisted on sending Lu Xinran back to the Lu Mansion. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth but had to pretend to send Han Jingyun back like him.
After staying in the carriage for a day and a night, Lu Xinran felt that he was still shaking when he got off.
Song Junyan wanted to say a few more words, but seeing that she looked very tired, he just told her to have a good rest and rode towards the palace gate.
Pei received the news of her return early in the morning. Knowing that she must be very tired after traveling all the time, she did not let her pay her respects in her courtyard. Instead, she asked Madam Xu to guard the door to the backyard and sent her back as soon as she entered.
Lu Xinran didn't insist for long, and when he returned to the room, the hot water was already ready.
She went into the bathtub, took a quick shower, changed her clothes, had a quick dinner, and fell asleep.
When they woke up again, it was already daybreak. Their journey took only four days. It was the seventh day of November, which was not too late.
As Lu Xinlan's wedding date is approaching, the Lu family has been receiving many guests recently.
Relatives from the old family have arrived in the capital one after another in recent days, and Pei and others have been busy entertaining guests during this period.
In Lu Xinlan's room, many ladies came to add makeup every day, and there were also young people of the same age from her hometown in her yard every day, so Lu Xinran couldn't find a suitable opportunity to tell her about his gains this time.
Although he had only been away for four or five days, the red silk and colorful satin decorations at the Lu Mansion were particularly festive, giving Lu Xinran the illusion that he had been away from home for many days.
There were many guests in the mansion, especially since Lu Xinlan's wedding would be coming soon. The guests from her hometown would have to stay in the mansion for a while, so within two days her courtyard was surrounded by people every day.
There are people following her around and trying to please her every day.
Lu Xinran was very surprised by all this, and she found it extremely interesting to see everyone trying to please her with complicated expressions, just because she was going to be the Princess of Wei soon.
It was not until the day before Lu Xinlan's wedding that the two sisters found a chance to be alone.
However, Lu Xinran did not choose the right time to sort out those messy booklets during this period, so the emperor's life experience remains a mystery.
"After we get married, we won't be together all the time. I won't be able to help you. You must be more careful with your words and actions."
Lu Xinlan held her hand and explained repeatedly.
She had said these words countless times in the past year, but this time might be the last time she would say them.
Lu Xinran smiled and shook her hand: "Don't worry, I know what to do."
How could she continue to act foolishly when she knew that others could hear her inner thoughts?
In the future, I will naturally reveal it only if it can be heard by others.
"After you get married, you must deal with Liu as soon as possible so that you can go out at will, so that we will have the opportunity to meet more often."
Thinking that after getting married, it would become a luxury for them to meet each other, she pouted in frustration.
"Sister, you have to be good to Tang Chongli."
Since you have chosen to be a real couple with him, then work hard to manage their marriage.
Lu Xinlan raised her hand and tidied up her hair with amusement: "Okay, I'll listen to you. When the time comes...you should be careful about what you do."
Lu Xinran pursed her lips, and thought of her interactions with Song Junyan over the past year, and sighed depressedly.
"Sister, he is... very good, really very good. What do you think I would do if I fell into it?"
The closer the wedding date gets, the more she starts to have wild thoughts.
Especially during this period of time, that person always agreed to her requests, which made her not know how to deal with it.
She was like a child who had done something wrong, and was afraid to look at Lu Xinlan's expression.
Lu Xinlan smiled and pulled her to sit aside: "If he treats you well, then get along well with him."
There may be few good people in this time and space, but there are some.
"Just remember to leave yourself a way out."
Don't go to the point of no return.
Lu Xinran pursed her lips and sighed softly after a long while.
"I know, I know everything."
She was worried because she knew everything.
The decline of clarity is sometimes even more terrifying.
The helplessness and worry in her eyes made Lu Xinlan feel distressed. "Don't think too much, just let it go."
"Yes, you should get some sleep. Tomorrow is the big day and we will be busy all day."
Lu Xinran quickly put away his sentimentality, stood up and pulled Lu Xinlan towards the inner room.
The night before the wedding, Zhao was originally going to come and accompany her daughter, but as soon as she left the yard, she heard that Lu Xinran was there, and she hesitated again and again and still did not come.
She and that damn girl don't get along, and if they quarrel, it will definitely affect Lu Xinlan's fortune.
She returned to her room, put the fire avoidance map in a box, and asked the servant beside her to deliver it.
As soon as the two sisters entered the inner room, they received a lacquered wooden box. When Lu Xinran heard that it was sent by Zhao, her eyes suddenly lit up, and then she winked at Lu Xinlan in a mischievous way.
"Open it quickly and have a look. I have never seen such a good thing before."
Lu Xinlan speechlessly raised his hand and tapped her forehead, wanting to order someone to take the things away, but in the end he couldn't resist the eager gazes of the people around him and stuffed the box directly into her hands.
"Those things... you should understand them, but you should know more."
If they decide to become a real couple on their wedding day, they should know more about these things.
Lu Xinran chuckled and took the fire avoidance map out of the box.
Information was so developed in her previous life, of course she knew those things.
But what you read from text is not as intuitive as a specially drawn "picture book".
She opened the first page with great interest, then slammed the book shut in disappointment.
"So ugly..."
The lines are crude and simple, and there is no color, but they actually draw those two people so fat!
Her wrinkled face made Lu Xinlan curious. He took the booklet from her, flipped through a few pages, and then said something pertinent.
“It’s really ugly.”
Throwing the booklet back into the box, Lu Xinlan ordered his men to put it away.
Before dawn, the two sisters were awakened together.
After taking a bath, changing clothes, combing her hair and putting on makeup, Lu Xinran stood in the room and watched Mrs. Quanfu singing congratulatory words while combing Lu Xinlan's hair with a comb, and suddenly warmth welled up in her eyes.
The elder sister who took the best care of her was getting married. From today on, they would start their own new life.
We can no longer be together every day and share each other's secrets at any time.
When Zhang Shuier entered the room, she saw her with red eyes and a pitiful look as if she had been abandoned.
She smiled and approached her to tease her deliberately: "Are you so reluctant?"
Lu Xinran didn't hide it and hummed: "Sister is the best person to me here."
"She will continue to treat you well in the future. Don't cry. It's unlucky to cry on a happy day."
Zhang Shui'er rarely made fun of her. She took out a handkerchief and pressed it against her eyes: "Smile, don't let her worry."
