After being forced to marry by her stepmother, Koi's lovely wife prospers the whole family

Chapter 534

Aunt Zhou followed the third prince all the way to Xuzhou.

Not long after they left the city, heavy rain began to fall in Cheng'an County.

Due to the heavy rain, the emperor postponed his return to the capital and could not leave until three days later.

Zhou Ruiyuan's side also roughly guessed that the emperor already knew their identities.

He and Du Bangchun had been waiting for news from Cheng'an County, and they were all relieved when they heard that the third prince and Zhou Damiang had not met the emperor.

A few days ago, Du Bangchun and Zhou Ruiyuan received an invitation to the birthday banquet of Lu Da in Beijing.

These days, they are worried about the safety of Aunt Zhou and have no intention of attending the birthday banquet.

Lord Lu is an old minister in the court, and they have always looked down on Zhou Ruiyuan, who was from a humble background.

Zhou Ruiyuan has just come to the court, although he has Lord Zheng and some henchmen to take care of him, but he can't offend him openly.

The Lu family specially sent the little servant next to Master Lu to the banquet, just to tell them that the husband and wife must participate in this birthday banquet.

After Du Bangchun received the letter that Aunt Zhou was safe, he began to work on going to the birthday banquet.

On this day, Du Bangchun specially handed over the children to Mr. Yuan and Hai Qingyang, and then the two took the congratulatory gifts and went to Lu's house in a carriage.

The Lu family has been an official for three generations, and the door is naturally bigger than Zhou Ruiyuan, a new official who has just taken office.

When the two of them were in the carriage, they heard someone outside the carriage whispering, "Have you heard, that Lord Zhou and Mrs. Zhou will also come." "

Most of the officials in the court are children of families, and a few of them who were born in scientific research are county commanders or prefects in various state capitals.

These women have always looked down on the farmers who were born in the bitter cold, and they look down on the down-and-out generosity on weekdays, but when there is no one, they still can't help but make up a few sentences.

"In the past, when they first came to the capital Feng, I saw it a few times in General Mo's mansion, although Mrs. Zhou was born as a peasant woman, but her appearance and figure were no worse than the nobles in Beijing. "

What if you are in good shape? she is not a peasant woman, if it weren't for the emperor who recognized her as the second son of the Zhou family as a righteous son, where would there be their place at today's birthday banquet." "

This is the eldest lady of the Lu family.

The eldest lady of the Lu family is already married, and she happens to be married to a scholar, although she is in high school this year, her official position is only five grades, so she is naturally not as good as Zhou Ruiyuan.

The dignified eldest lady of the Lu family is not as good as this peasant woman, and her heart is naturally full of resentment.

Several other ladies and ladies immediately followed with a few flattering words, saying that the family was just lucky that week, otherwise with their knowledge, how could they have today's position.

The few people standing in the back had good eyes, and as soon as they looked up, they saw the carriage of the Zhou family, and immediately whispered a few reminders to them, asking them not to say any more.

Miss Lu didn't think so, and specially said a few insinuations to Du Bangchun about Du Bangchun's carriage.

Du Bangchun listened in the carriage, not caring at all.

Zhou Ruiyuan held her hand and comforted: "In the future, we will not come to this kind of banquet."

Du Bangchun shook his head with a smile and said: "It's okay, the more we don't come, the more they will underestimate us." With

that, he took Zhou Ruiyuan's hand and slowly walked down from the carriage.

Du Bangchun was dressed very plainly today, dressed in light blue, and only wore a pearl hairpin on his head.

At first glance, this pearl hairpin looks very ordinary, but in the sunlight, you can faintly see the large pearls on it shining with a faint blue light.

It's like the deep blue sea has been engraved on it.

This pearl was found by Ruiyuan at a great price, and if it were to be sold, it would be worth at least several cities.

These women had seen many precious ornaments, and it was the first time they had seen such a rare and priceless pearl.

They cast shocked and envious glances.

But there are also some ladies and ladies who don't know the goods, such as Miss Lu.

Miss Lu glanced at Du Bangchun and sneered: "Today, my father held a birthday banquet, and Mrs. Zhou was wearing this, I didn't know, I thought our house was holding a funeral." "

There is nothing wrong with Du Bangchun's clothes today, but they are too plain.

Miss Lu deliberately grasped this point and said to Dali.

Du Bangchun saluted them and smiled softly: "Miss Lu, don't say that, be careful, the guests passing by really think that the Lu family is holding a funeral, and when the time comes, Miss Lu wants to explain again, I'm afraid it won't be clear." "

After all, Miss Lu is a married daughter, and she came to her father's birthday banquet today to slap in with her father, if it is really as Du Bangchun said.

Lord Lu is afraid that he will blame him.

She was angry and annoyed in her heart, so she had to endure it.

Du Bangchun saluted the other ladies, and then followed Zhou Ruiyuan into the Lu Mansion.

Miss Lu looked at Du Bangchun's back coldly, and squeezed the handkerchief in her hand tightly.

At this time, the lady on the side couldn't help but exclaim: "This Mrs. Zhou is really low-key, although she is dressed plainly, but the beads on her head are enough for us to prepare several sets of outfits."

Miss Lu's face changed, "Really, those beads are so valuable?"
