Chapter 28 Sister Lu
The Yan Mansion has a courtyard gate that allows direct entry into the mansion.

From outside the Lu family's house, he took his wife's carriage back to the Yan Mansion and entered the mansion through the gate.

Yan Shaoting dismounted and walked to the carriage.

According to his memory, this woman from the Lu family was quite good-looking.

"Madam, we're home."

Yan Hu greeted them attentively from the side.

The curtain moved, and first two maids opened the curtain and walked out of the carriage.

Another groom brought a ladder and placed it next to the carriage.

After everything is done.

Just now, I saw a small jade-like hand stretched out from the carriage and held the door frame.

On her wrist, there was a pure green jade bracelet, which contrasted with her fair skin.

The carriage moved twice, and a graceful figure bowed and slowly moved out from inside the carriage.

Yan Shaoting's eyes suddenly lit up.

The woman who came out was wearing a light blue and green gauze shirt, a pleated skirt with scattered flowers and water mist green grass, and a light blue and green gauze on her body.

The shoulders are as sharp as a knife, the waist is as straight as a slender waist, the skin is as white as cream, and the breath is as fragrant as orchid.

This girl is Lu Wenyan, who was married to Yan Shaoting through a formal marriage between the Yan and Lu families.

At this moment, Lu Wenyan bent her waist and took small steps, showing her white wrists under the light gauze, and walked slowly out of the carriage.

A hollow gold hairpin decorated with purple jade was inserted diagonally into her Japanese-style bun, and tassels were scattered on her black hair.

See Yan Shaoting waiting in front of the carriage.

Lu Wenyan's eyes were as clear as spring water, and her oval face was bare of makeup, making her look elegant and refined.

Even when she stepped off the carriage, her every move, every frown and smile was captivating, yet she was graceful and elegant.

"My concubine greets you, my lord. You must have been working hard at home lately."

After getting off the carriage and landing on the ground, Lu Wenyan pinched her hands and bowed.

Yan Shaoting took two more glances.

Is this the wife in my memory who was just pretty?
Although Lu Bing was born a warrior, his daughter was raised to be a lady from a noble family. And because the Lu family was based in the Jinyiwei, Lu Wenyan had a rare temperament of a lady in charge of a family.

Yan Shaoting came forward for no reason and held Lu Wenyan's wrist with his hand: "Madam, you have worked hard. Since the death of your father-in-law, you have been helping your brothers with all kinds of things in your husband's family. Now that you are home, you should have a good rest for a few days."

Yan Hu also echoed, "Young Madam, you don't know. When the young master heard that she was coming back, he started to send people out to buy her favorite food a few days ago. Today, he even asked the chefs in the mansion to start cooking early. Young Madam can go back to her room and wash up before eating."

Lu Wenyan had beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and seemed to always be smiling. She glanced at Yan Hu, then looked up at Yan Shaoting and said, "My dear, you are thoughtful, but we are only outside the city for a few days. You shouldn't be so extravagant."

Although she was born into a prominent family and married into a powerful family, Lu Wenyan was not at all spoiled.

Yan Shaoting smiled and nodded: "Just this time, just this time. Actually, I don't know what you like to eat, so I just thought I would cook the things you usually eat a lot."

As he spoke, Yan Shaoting gave his lackey Yan Hu a look.

Yan Hu immediately understood what was meant, and led the maids serving the young lady, and left on the pretext of setting the table.

Only Yan Shaoting and his wife were left in the yard, and they went to their own yard.

Seeing that there was no one around, Lu Wenyan whispered, "I was outside the city, and I heard that you sold off a lot of your family property a few days ago?"

Yan Shaoting nodded.

If I remember correctly, after the Yan family lost power, the girl who married into the Lu family never left them. Even when she was exiled to the border, she was still at ease taking care of her husband and children.

His tone couldn't help but soften: "After all, we still have to consider the future of our family."

Lu Wenyan hummed a little, and then said: "The father-in-law seems to be very angry." Yan Shaoting curled his lips: "At least he is not angry to death."

Lu Wenyan immediately covered her lips and chuckled softly, "How can my husband say that about my father-in-law? In the end, the Yan family is a united whole."

Yan Shaoting couldn't help but look down at the girl.

He didn't expect that Lu Wenyan could say such a thing.

Yan Shaoting hummed and said, "Don't worry, we'll sell off the filthy things back home in Jiangxi, and after a while, we'll be able to eliminate all these hidden dangers."

Lu Wenyan tilted her head to look at Yan Shaoting, who had a serious expression on his face, and suddenly laughed.

Yan Shaoting looked down in confusion.

The eldest sister's smile was like peach blossoms blooming all over the yard.

Lu Wenyan stopped laughing and whispered, "My dear, you came out of the city to pick us up today. I think you are discussing something with my third brother. But my third brother was protected by our father in the past. He is young and inexperienced after all. If my dear wants him to do something, we should keep an eye on him to avoid him getting things wrong."

This girl could actually guess my intention of leaving the city today!

Yan Shaoting couldn't help but look at Lu Wenyan twice.

Lu Wenyan tilted her head and stared at Yan Shaoting with a smile on her face: "My dear, do you want to vent your anger for my elder sister?"

When Yan Shaoting heard Lu Wenyan guess that he and his brother-in-law were discussing something, he was already surprised.

And now, Yan Shaoting was even more surprised.

This young lady could actually guess what she was going to do.

And the most important thing is that although Lu Wenyan said that she was venting her elder sister's anger, in fact she must have guessed what she was going to do.

Yan Shaoting couldn't help but look at Sister Lu twice more. After confirming that she was a normal person, he said with a stern face: "This old guy Zhu Shitai deserves a lesson!"

Lu Wenyan tilted her head and looked left and right at Yan Shaoting, who had a righteous look on his face. She just sneered twice, and then stretched out her hand to gently soothe Yan Shaoting's chest.

"My dear, calm down and teach your brother-in-law a lesson. After all, we are still a family. We will have to rely on our family members for many things in the future."

Yan Shaoting nodded, his face full of righteousness, his head held high and his chest puffed out: "Madam, you are absolutely right."

Lu Wenyan moved, put her arms around Yan Shaoting's arms, and said softly: "My dear, you are now accompanying grandpa, working in the cabinet, and you are also the tutor of Prince Yu. Now you are also in charge of rebuilding the Wanshou Palace. You will be busy in the future, and you will have more contacts with various parties."

Yan Shaoting nodded.

Just when he was wondering why Sister Lu said that.

Lu Wenyan suddenly said, "Why don't you take in a few more concubines? There are many families in the capital, although their fathers are low-ranking officials, they are all young ladies who have inherited poetry and literature from their families. They will definitely catch your eye."

Yan Shaoting's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He quickly stopped and turned to look at Lu Wenyan.

"I...what do you mean, ma'am?"

Lu Wenyan's face was full of smiles, and her eyes were as beautiful as two crescent moons because of her smile: "My dear, you have established your career now. As the ancients said, after you have established a family and a career, the next step is to have children and branches."

Okay.

It turned out to be because of this.

Yan Shaoting's face turned red for no reason.

He had already been pulled by Lu Wenyan into the main house in their yard.

The door is closed.

Yan Hu, who had disappeared, was now quietly guarding the gate of the courtyard with two maids.

About half an hour later.

Lu Wenyan, who had just washed and changed her clothes, now had a happy face and watery eyes as she took Yan Shaoting's arm and walked out of the house.
