The dinner was grand but not extravagant. Luo Chong and four women sat at the same table. The large dining table with a diameter of two meters was filled with wine and food.
????????? Normally, for such a high-level matter as entertaining the princess, neither the sister-in-law nor Luo Xiuer can do it. Only Luo¡¯s mother, as an official, has this qualification.
"But Luo Chong doesn't pay attention to things like this and that. As long as they are members of his own family, they are all equal. How do you usually sit, and how do you sit today? It's just one more guest.
Yongning took a nap for an hour and looked much more energetic and beautiful, as bright as a light bulb on his head.
"But my sister-in-law and Luo Xiu'er didn't feel ashamed under her dazzling appearance, because in terms of beauty, the previous female assassin was so beautiful that she didn't look like a human being. But so what, after being kept in captivity for nearly two months, it will still become smelly.
What really makes them a little nervous is the noble status of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Fortunately, Yongning has a gentle and approachable temperament, and does not seem to have any airs. The warm smile on his face is also very contagious. After just a few words, Luo's mother and sister-in-law felt that the emperor's daughter was not as tall as they thought. Leng, this princess is quite easy to get along with.
Especially Luo's mother, she was a little relieved: looking at his temper, it was impossible to bully Dong'er, but I have never heard of any concubine who can have three wives and four concubines in the past. This is not what the young couple said themselves. The last word.
But the casualness with which Luo Chong spoke in front of Yongning made Luo's mother feel frightened again and again. She kept muttering in her heart: Why is this child so stunned? How can he be so casual when talking to the princess? Why is he so casual when talking to Xiu'er? Pretty much.
The four women were very reserved when eating. They used their chopsticks for a long time and took a small bite each time, just like feeding the birds. However, Luo Chong didn't care about the image. Good guy, one chopstick only took half a bowl.
The princess's maid standing aside silently thought: This General Luo is really good at eating. He has to ask Aunt Jiang to prepare a few more dishes. Otherwise, it is impossible for His Highness to be full and everything will be stuffed into his stomach
"Aunt"
Yongning initially called Luo¡¯s mother Lao Madam (a term for an official¡¯s mother), but because Luo Chong didn¡¯t like the old lady calling his mother old, he insisted on calling her aunt.
"Auntie's name scared Luo Mu very much at first. How can this be done? Doesn't it mean that we have the same status as His Majesty the Emperor?"
??Then I heard her shouting more times, but she became numb. Anyway, there was nothing I could do about their two children.
"Auntie, Luo Dong will go to the capital sooner or later to become an official. I don't think you can stay here in Guangling for long."
At this moment, Yongning seemed to be chatting casually, but only she knew her true thoughts.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Luo Mu nodded and replied: "We have been mentally prepared for this for a long time, but we didn't expect it to happen so quickly."
¡°Speaking of it, no one would have thought of it.¡±
Yongning replied: "In just one year, he was promoted from a soldier at the bottom to a third-level official. Let alone the history of the Jin Dynasty, there are not many such examples in the past dynasties, so I will tell you how capable he is. , It¡¯s really impossible to guess. Sometimes I wonder, what kind of parents can give birth to such a child?¡±
"Who says it's not?"
This kind of topic is enough for any parent to be proud of. Luo Mu suddenly regained his energy and brought out some seemingly abnormal situations when Luo Dong was a child. It felt like he was gifted. In fact, Luo Dong was originally His mother would scold him every time: You can't live in peace, you're such a naughty boy!
Yongning listened carefully with great interest. Especially when he heard some embarrassing things about Luo Dong when he was a child, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at his eyes and smile.
It¡¯s none of my business, I didn¡¯t do it.
Luo Chong took the blame and felt a little contempt in his heart, but Princess Yongning's expression in the eyes of his sister-in-law and Luo Xiuer confirmed their previous speculation: the princess seemed to be deeply in love with him and couldn't extricate herself.
Women are particularly sensitive to this kind of thing, not to mention that the man they care about very much is the same man.
In earth terms, it¡¯s almost like a relationship between love rivals.
In fact, this was Yongning¡¯s intention. He made no secret of his love for Luo Chong. It was a vaccination for them in advance. No matter what happened in the future, they would be easier to accept.
While chatting, Yongning¡¯s eyes turned to Luo Xiuer again, and he smiled and asked, ¡°Sister Luo Xiuer doesn¡¯t seem to like talking. I haven¡¯t heard a word from her until now.¡±
It¡¯s not that I mean to target her, it¡¯s just to deepen theuntie.
"This kid has such a temper."
Luo's mother replied: "We don't talk much on weekdays. When we three are alone together, even if we don't ask her, she can't speak."
As expected, Luo Xiuer still lowered her head slightly and remained silent.
Luo Chong didn't know whether he was protecting her or trying to deceive others, so he said at this time: "When we are alone with each other, she still talks a lot. She even climbs trees and digs out bird's nests. She doesn't let me do this. Let¡¯s do that.¡±
The nanny sister is there to protect her all day long. In the past few years, Luo Dong found her annoying because of this.
Yongning smiled and asked Luo Xiuer: "When sister Luo Xiuer refused to let him climb the tree, did he ever think that one day he would become an omnipotent warrior master who could fly in the sky and escape from the earth?"
What is a martial arts master?
It was the first time Luo Xiuer heard this title. The military household in Guangling was almost insulated from the martial arts world. She had been working hard since childhood and was illiterate. She had no time or conditions to appreciate those martial arts novels.
So she could only shake her head and replied softly: "I don't know when he learned so many skills."
"Isn't it?"
Yongning became even more curious: "Sister, what do you mean, sister, you didn't know that he was very skilled in martial arts a year ago, and you were afraid of him falling and knocking you when you climbed a tree?"
If this is the case, it would be strange. In just one year, no matter what, it is impossible to be promoted from an ordinary person to a martial arts master. This cannot be explained by how good the talent and skills are.
"no."
Luo Xiuer shook her head: "A year ago, he stopped climbing trees. He should have said that when he was eleven or twelve years old. Later when he got older, he stopped letting me follow him."
Yongning¡¯s eyes turned back to Luo Chong, still feeling that this matter could not be explained: a person has changed so much that the relatives at home who get along day and night are not aware of it. How advanced is the concealment skill? However, with his extremely flamboyant character, he does not look like a person with such a sinister and terrifying mind
"What are you looking at?"
How did Luo Chong know what she was suspecting, so he glared: "If you ask about other people's secrets casually, you may be silenced, you know?"
Yong Ning has heard this kind of words many times, so of course he won't care about it. Luo's mother really couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help scolding her: "Dong'er, what are you talking about! You kid, are you going to piss me off to death?"
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Can you say such a thing? You are planning to destroy the nine clans of your own family, right?
Luo Chong chuckled, stretched out his chopsticks, and deliberately emptied the plate of food in front of the princess: If you target me again, I will starve you to death!
The princess girl is so reserved. She basically only eats the dish in front of her without stretching her chopsticks far away. Now, it¡¯s up to you to see what else you eat.
His Highness's personal maid really couldn't stand it, so she slipped away without saying a word, and hurriedly went to find Aunt Jiang and asked her to cook some more dishes for His Highness. General Na Luo was simply a beast, even more so than Qingyuan Kingdom, who walked around the streets shirtless. The reckless man is even more rude!
I don¡¯t understand why His Highness likes this kind of person. He can kill people and fight
"Aunt, it's okay."
At the restaurant, Yongning was defending Luo Chong: "We are used to joking with each other. We have said a lot of more casual things along the way. You, don't always treat me like a princess, don't I won¡¯t tell you where I am, but as long as I come to the Luo family, I will be the most ordinary junior, okay?¡±
"well."
Luo¡¯s mother smiled and nodded. She felt that this princess was really kind and lovely, and her evaluation of her was even higher.
¡°Besides, it would be strange if you don¡¯t feel useful and proud to be treated with such ¡®filial piety¡¯ by a princess.
"This princess is so powerful."
But the sister-in-law murmured in her heart: As expected of someone who grew up in intrigues in the palace, she is definitely very clever. If we enter the Luo family's house, in the midst of chatting and laughing, Xiu'er and I will be wiped out without leaving any trace.
" Vaguely, my sister-in-law felt a sense of fear towards this kind and lovely princess. She didn't know if it was because she had a guilty conscience and was secretly in love with someone she shouldn't like.
The meal lasted for nearly two hours, but the problem was that the four women were not full at all, and they would definitely have to go back to the room to quietly stuff themselves with pastries or other things.
It¡¯s easy for the princess. Aunt Jiang has already cooked the porridge. She carefully cooked all kinds of rare ingredients. With such nutritional content, a small bowl can hold a large pot of rice.
His Highness went back to his room to rest. The three Luo family members were still gathering in the garden of the south courtyard. They were eating snacks and of course talking about the noble and beautiful princess.
"At present, she doesn't have a bad temper."
Luo¡¯s mother was saying, ¡°I think it¡¯s possible that I might be bullied by this stupid young man like me, but I¡¯m afraid that if the news comes to the ears of the emperor or the queen mother, my mother-in-law¡¯s family will definitely be very unhappy.¡±
"There is no need for an emperor or a queen mother."
The sister-in-law curled her lips and only now dared to say: "Your Highness is not an ordinary powerful one. Her eyelashes are all empty and she is just pretending to be selfish. Although she is gentle and gentle, she has many ways to punish others, and she still needs her natal family. Protected by people?¡±
¡°It¡¯s strange that the emperor¡¯s child is short-sighted.¡±
Luo¡¯s mother unconsciously defended her: ¡°As long as there is no intention to harm others, that¡¯s fine.¡±
"Look, look."
My sister-in-law immediately testified: "In just one meal, my mother was already coaxed. Don't forget, you were still worrying about this and that before nightfall."
Luo's mother was speechless for a moment, and she was indeed a little alarmed: Yes, I don't want Dong'er to marry some princess.
The sister-in-law said to Luo Xiu'er again: "Xiu'er, we are not saying bad things about people behind their backs, we are just just in case What if Her Highness the Princess sees you, the child bride, as a thorn in her side? What will my mother and I do? It's easy to say that the big deal is just to hide as much as possible and give in. But you are all for the same man's heart, and your feelings are all selfish. The friendly relationship between wives and concubines is the best in the world. The false things and the overt and covert fights between the palace concubines are all murder without a knife, what do you think?"
"I'm not afraid."
Luo Xiuer replied softly with a calm expression: "As long as you are still a member of the Luo family, I don't care when or how you die."
At this time, Luo Chong wandered into the garden and happened to hear Luo Xiuer's words.
The so-called people of the Luo family, to put it bluntly, are the people of Luo Chong
