[Lu Hua] Beauty Fragrance

Chapter 22

Early in the morning of the Dragon Boat Festival, Mrs. Hua brought two large bunches of zongzi to Lu's mansion, but she didn't bring any entourage with her.

"Sister, why are you holding the zongzi by yourself? Where's the flower sandalwood?"

When Madam Lu asked, she hurriedly took the zongzi from Madam Hua's hand, and at the same time looked behind Madam Hua.

Mrs. Hua: "My lord has sent a message that I can't go home in time for the Dragon Boat Festival. I thought that General Lu on your side is not in the mansion, and Qi Tong rested in Lu's mansion last night. Why don't I come to you to celebrate the festival, and tell the servants in the mansion to also come to you?" Take a break and let them celebrate the festival by themselves."

Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "Sister has always been considerate of her family."

Lu's mansion was being cleaned up, green moxa was planted on the doors everywhere and calamus was hanging, a few servants were spreading realgar wine everywhere, atractylodes was also burned in several places, and the garden was full of medicinal fragrance.

Mrs. Hua: "How many little ones are still asleep?"

Mrs. Lu: "Yes, Qitong really followed her sister's unyielding temperament. Commander Jiang taught Feng'er and Qitong to "turn over the kite" yesterday. Qitong was originally young, and Commander Jiang just wanted him to see it. Thinking that he was stunned, he held back a lot of energy, and practiced until the second watch, and finally mastered the essence."

Mrs. Hua laughed when she heard this, and followed Mrs. Lu to Lu Xiaofeng's bedroom.

Mrs. Lu: "Yesterday, the seven children were tired. Today is the holiday, so I won't bother the little ones to sleep. They just don't get enough sleep now."

While talking, Mrs. Lu gently pushed open the door, and the two mothers tiptoed over to see the two sleeping children.

Because Qitong often stays in Lu's residence, Mrs. Lu specially replaced Lu Xiaofeng's small bed with a nanmu weeping flower bed, several adults can also sleep on it.At this moment, the two children were neatly covered under an eight-foot thin brocade quilt, quietly, without any disturbance in the usual way, and they were so cute that people couldn't help but want to pinch their pink and tender little faces .

Mrs. Hua and Mrs. Lu laughed lightly, and were about to leave, but Mrs. Hua suddenly felt that the quilt was undulating a bit abnormally, so she couldn't help but gently lifted the quilt to have a look. Laughed out loud.

Huamanlou turned sideways, hugged Lu Xiaofeng's arm, and slept fairly well, but Lu Xiaofeng looked like Chang'e flying to the moon, her chubby little feet were raised up to shoulder level, but just now she was covered with a quilt can not tell.

Mrs. Hua held back her laughter and said softly: "Our little Phoenix's figure is really excellent."

Madam Lu shook her head with a helpless smile, tucked the quilts in for the two children, and then quietly withdrew with Madam Hua.

At noon, Lu Xiaoxi had asked the two mothers to wash up and dress up like little fairy children, but the two elder brothers were still asleep. Lu Xiaoxi rushed into Lu Xiaofeng's room on two short legs.

"Brother! Brother Seven! Wake up!"

However, the two elder brothers frowned, without opening their eyes, they pulled the quilt tacitly together, and retracted into the bed.

Seeing that he couldn't wake them up, Lu Xiaoxi simply took off his shoes, got on the pedal, lifted the gauze curtain, and climbed onto the bed with two radish-like legs.

Lu Xiaoxi swooped and pressed on the two elder brothers through the quilt, and the three children started fighting through the quilt.

The two ladies in the main house on the opposite side, listening to the noise in the room, smiled and continued to arrange the clothes and sachets of several children.

Lu Xiaofeng took Hua Manlou and ran out of the room with a smile, the two boys were only wearing their jackets, only Lu Xiaoxi could be heard shouting from the room.It turned out that the two elder brothers wrapped the little sister up tightly with a quilt, but now Lu Xiaoxi couldn't keep her arms and legs under the quilt, so she could only roll around and shout at the same time.

"Lu Xiaoji! Bad brother! I won't talk to you anymore!"

When the two mothers rescued the little girl from the quilt, Lu Xiaoxi seemed to have just crawled out of the chicken coop, her hair was so messed up that an egg could fall out at any time, the two mothers had no choice but to Help her freshen up again.

On the other side, the family had prepared a big bucket of moxa soup, Lu Xiaofeng stripped himself naked and jumped into the tub, but Hua Manlou was a little embarrassed, only his mother had seen him take a bath.

Lu Xiaofeng: "Qitong, why don't you come in? My mother said that the Dragon Boat Festival must be bathed with moxa water, which can dispel poisonous insects and avoid dampness."

Huamanlou didn't speak, but his face was a little red. Lu Xiaofeng was standing in the bathtub, which was just below Lu Xiaofeng's chest. He stretched out his hand and pulled Huamanlou to the side of the bathtub, and began to help him undress.

Lu Xiaofeng said as he moved his hands: "We are all men, there is nothing to be shy about. When I was in the capital, I would always go swimming with them in the river in hot weather. No one was wearing clothes."

Huamanlou's small face was a little shocked, but she was obviously persuaded. Although it was a little unnatural, she finally got into the bathtub.

In the mist, mugwort was everywhere, Lu Xiaofeng didn't make a fuss in the bath today, he took a small bath ladle made of half a gourd and carefully poured water on Huamanlou and himself.

Lu Xiaofeng: "Let's hurry up and take a shower, I'll take you to steal a drink"

Hua Manlou looked at Lu Xiaofeng with some doubts and said, "Wine?"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled slyly, pretending to be mysterious and said: "Yesterday I saw that Mother brought up two large jars of apricot blossom wine from the wine cellar, sealed them with oil paper and put them in the west chamber."

Huamanlou looked at Lu Xiaofeng in surprise when he heard the words, only to see Lu Xiaofeng raised his eyebrows triumphantly.

After bathing, the two boys put on the clothes prepared by their mothers, with a small sachet woven with five-color silk hanging on their chests, and ran out of the room happily. He pinched his waist and stared at the two of them.

After all, it was the two brothers who bullied Xi'er just now, and now that the little girl is here, they want to steal a drink, so they can only please their sister first.

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and went to hug Xi'er, Xi'er pouted and walked away, and ran to hold Hua Manlou's hand, Nuo Nuo said: "Seventh brother, you can't learn from brother, brother is a big villain , will bully Xi'er!"

Hua Manlou smiled and shook Xi'er's little hand and said, "Your brother loves you the most, why would he bully you?"

When Xi'er heard this, she wanted to imitate the adults and want to give Lu Xiaofeng a slap in the face, but her big round eyes stared at her, but instead made Lu Xiaofeng laugh.

Lu Xiaofeng: "My good sister, it's my brother's fault. Qitong and I are going to do something interesting. I'm going to invite the cutest little Xi'er in the Eight Mansions in the south of the Yangtze River to join us. I don't know that Xi'er Are you willing to show your face?"

Lu Xiaoxi's eyes lit up when she heard the words, she was about to laugh, but she held back, hugged her chest with her two short arms angrily, turned her back to Lu Xiaofeng, and said, "Brother must be Do bad things! Xi'er will not be with you!"

Lu Xiaoxi thought for a while, then turned around and pulled Hua Manlou, then raised a small face at Lu Xiaofeng, and said, "Elder Brother Seven will not be with you either!"

Lu Xiaofeng and Huamanlou were both amused, Lu Xiaofeng intentionally raised his voice, turned around slowly and said slowly: "Oh, what a pity, I heard that this apricot blossom wine is sweet and delicious, nourishing the kidneys and beautifying the skin, even if it is Children can also drink, if you don’t go, then I can only enjoy it alone.”

Seeing that Lu Xiaofeng was really about to leave with his little hands behind his back, Lu Xiaoxi became anxious and shook Hua Manlou's hand as if asking for help. Hua Manlou looked down at Lu Xiaoxi's anxious look, couldn't help laughing, and shouted to Lu Xiaofeng : "If such a beautiful thing is enjoyed by one person alone, wouldn't it be too lonely?"

Lu Xiaofeng turned around leisurely, pretending to be sorry and said: "I also think it will be very lonely, but our little Xi'er refuses to accompany my bad brother, what can I do?"

With a serious face, Lu Xiaoxi said in a childish voice, "So, I, I will just resign myself to it!"

Lu Xiaoxi was talking, imitating Lu Xiaofeng, with her little hands behind her back, she walked to the front step by step, Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou followed behind with a smile.

During lunch, the three children could not be found anywhere in Lu's house, and the two wives were very anxious. Just when everyone was panicking, Mrs. Lu suddenly slapped her head and suddenly said: " I know where it is!"

Everyone quickly followed the two ladies to the west wing, and moved the wine jar away, and sure enough, they saw three little drunk cats in it, all of them fell asleep unconscious, and they didn't know how much wine they had drunk secretly.

……

At dusk, in the Hua's small building, Lu Xiaofeng slowly opened his eyes, watching the golden sunset reflected into the room, Lu Xiaofeng rubbed his face vigorously.

After the female corpse case was solved, he often dreamed about his childhood.

Tomorrow is the Dragon Boat Festival.

The sound of water came from the room next door to Huamanlou, Lu Xiaofeng suddenly remembered that today Huamanlou asked him to pick out several tanks of water, and Huamanlou was probably bathing with moxa water during this time, he smiled and touched his own The mustache jumped out of the window.

Huamanlou's windows were never fastened, Lu Xiaofeng quietly opened the window and got into Huamanlou's room, although he knew that he would not be able to hide it from Huamanlou's ears, but Lu Xiaofeng still enjoyed it.

Ai Xiang was elegant in the mist, Hua Manlou had her long hair loose, she shook her head with a smile, and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Lu to have the habit of peeking at people taking a bath."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and spread his hands and said, "You, what's there for me to peek at, we even took a shower together"

Hua Manlou smiled and said, "Then, is Daxia Lu going to take a bath with Hua Qi?"

Lu Xiaofeng was startled when he heard the words, rolled his Adam's apple, and didn't speak for a while.

Knowing that Lu Xiaofeng was devastated, Huamanlou laughed out loud.

Lu Xiaofeng intentionally let out a long sigh and said, "Qitong is really becoming more and more ungentlemanly, and I don't know who made it bad."

Scratching his mustache, Lu Xiaofeng walked over with a smile, picked up the bath ladle beside him, and helped Hua Manlou pour moxa water on his body just like when he was a child.

Hua Manlou: "Tomorrow Incense is about to open, you said you came to write the name, but I don't know, what name did you choose?"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Of course it's your name."

Huamanlou: "Huamanlou? Isn't it a bit strange?"

Lu Xiaofeng shook his head and said, "Of course it's not Huamanlou."

Hua Man Lou: "Hua Qi Tong?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "No"

Hua Manlou: "What is that?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "Do you still remember that I once said that I would change you to my Lu family and that I would give you a new name?"

Hua Manlou smiled and said, "Of course I remember, it doesn't sound good even if you say it."

Lu Xiaofeng: "Now I think of a name that sounds better than Huamanlou"

Hua Manlou: "What name?"

Lu Xiaofeng leaned down and whispered in his ear: "Feng, Man, Lou"
