Chapter 8 Aunt Deng

Lu Simo opened his mouth and lowered his shoulders in despair. He had vaguely felt these things before, but he had never wanted to think about it too much. Now hearing Lu Wanning say it so bluntly, he had to face it head-on.

fact.

Lu Simo was silent for a while, then spoke with red eyes: "Sister, I understand what you mean, but you clearly don't want to enter the palace!"

Lu Wanning smiled and stretched out her hand to rub the top of Lu Simo's head, and said: "At first, I really didn't think about entering the palace, nor was I willing to enter the palace, but now I want to enter the palace."

"Sister, stop coaxing me." Lu Simo muttered, "I'm not a child anymore. How can I believe that my sister suddenly wants to enter the palace."

Lu Wanning shook her head. She really didn't coax Lu Simo. She was indeed willing to enter the palace now. She had already figured out that without her father and brother, the Zhongyong Hou Mansion could no longer be her backer, so the only one she could rely on was herself.

Entering the palace is only the first step. What she has to do is to become a being who can no longer be manipulated easily and become the supporter of her younger brother and mother in the Hou Mansion.

Lu Simo looked at Lu Wanning suspiciously, "Sister, are you telling the truth?"

"When did my sister lie to you?"

Lu Simo tilted his head and thought about it carefully, and found that Lu Wanning did not seem to have deceived him, so he began to believe what Lu Wanning said.

However, despite the letter, he still frowned and said, "But if my sister enters the palace, what will my cousin do? My cousin wrote to me a few days ago and asked about my sister."

"What should I do?" Lu Wanning said without changing her expression: "What does my entering the palace have to do with my cousin?"

"Didn't my sister get engaged to her cousin before?" Lu Simo said.

"Don't talk nonsense." Lu Wanning scolded softly.

"I'm not talking nonsense." Lu Simo muttered: "I know that my uncle wants my sister to marry my cousin, and my cousin also likes my sister."

Lu Wanning curled up her two fingers, tapped Lu Simo's forehead, and said: "There is only a brother-sister relationship between me and my cousin, nothing else. Although my uncle wants me to marry my cousin, my aunt doesn't like me.

, so Mom has never agreed. You can’t mention this kind of thing again in the future, so as not to ruin your sister’s reputation. Do you understand?”

Lu Simo naturally knew how important reputation was to a woman in the boudoir. Hearing what Lu Wanning said, Lu Simo nodded hurriedly, "I understand, sister. I will definitely not talk nonsense in the future. And I only said this in front of my sister. I will not talk in front of other people."

I have never mentioned it before, even in front of my mother."

Lu Wanning glanced at him and said, "You can't mention it in front of me in the future."

Lu Simo nodded, "Yeah, I won't mention it, I won't mention it."

Without mentioning it, Lu Simo couldn't help but ask Lu Sunning again, "Sister, do you really not like my cousin?"

In Lu Simo's eyes, his cousin is not only a talented person, but also very knowledgeable, and his family background is not bad. Such a person should be the ideal husband in the eyes of many women. My sister has also met her cousin several times. Is there really no such thing?

Are you tempted?

Lu Wanning shook his head, "I don't like it."

The cousin is very good. She has also thought about marrying her cousin, but this has nothing to do with liking her. She just thinks that her cousin will be a good husband. If she really marries her cousin, the two of them can be together.

Be a couple who respect each other as guests, but this is not love.

"All right."

Lu Simo carefully observed Lu Wanning's expression for a while and found that Lu Wanning didn't seem to be lying. She might really only have a brother-sister relationship with her cousin.

Lu Simo stayed with Lu Wanning for a long time, until he felt sleepy before Lu Wanning rushed him back to his yard to rest.

Lu Simo only had one day off, and returned to Baiyun Academy in the afternoon of the next day.

Not two days after Lu Simo returned to the academy, Lu Wanning's injured foot was completely healed, and the grandma Lin sent to find was also found.

Mrs. Lin sent someone to invite Nanny into the house, and then asked someone to call Lu Wanning to come see her.

Mrs. Lin has been keeping an eye on Lu Wanning and Mrs. Tao for the past few days, and found that Lu Wanning and Mrs. Tao did not make any small moves in private, and she believed in her heart that Lu Wanning was indeed willing to enter the palace.

After Lu Wanning went to Jifu Hall to salute Mrs. Lin, Mrs. Lin said to Lu Wanning: "This is Nanny Deng. She stayed in the palace for more than 20 years during the reign of the late emperor, and she knows the etiquette and rules of the palace best."

However, I specially invited her to teach you."

When Lu Wanning entered the door, she saw Nanny Deng sitting on Lin's right.

Grandma Deng, who is probably in her fifties, is wearing a blue-colored dress. The material of the dress is not particularly good, but it is ironed very smoothly without a single wrinkle.

His hair was neatly pulled into a bun with a silver hairpin, his face was serious, and he sat there with his back straight. At first glance, you could tell that he was a strict and extremely disciplined person.

Lu Wanning bowed her knees slightly towards Grandma Deng, "I've seen Grandma before."

Nanny Deng accepted Lu Wanning's gift without changing her expression. At the same time, she looked Lu Wanning up and down carefully and nodded slightly, "Fifth Miss, there is no need to be polite."

Seeing Lu Wanning salute to Nanny Deng, Mrs. Lin frowned, but she didn't say anything.

After the two of them greeted each other, Mrs. Lin said to Lu Sunning: "Mother Deng can enter the house tomorrow. You can go back and prepare a place for her in your yard. In the next period of time, Mother Deng will be there."

I will live in your courtyard and personally guide you on palace rules and etiquette, etc. You must learn from Grandma Deng and don’t slack off. Do you remember?"

"Yes, grandma, please keep this in mind." Lu Wanning responded.

When Lu Wanning came out of Jifu Hall, she bumped into Lu Wanyi who had rushed to Jifu Hall. Lu Wanyi saw Lu Wanning and asked angrily: "Why are you here?"

She heard someone said that the Lin family had invited a nanny from the palace to teach the girls in the mansion etiquette, so she came here in a hurry just to be able to see the nanny first, but she didn't expect that she would actually meet Lu Sunning from the Jifu Hall.

come out.

Lu Wanning glanced at the aggressive Lu Wanyi, her heart changed, and she said with a smile: "Of course my grandmother asked me to come."

"Grandma asked you to come?"

"Of course." Lu Wanning said: "The nanny my grandma invited for me has arrived. Can't I come to see her?"

Lu Wanyi caught the words in Lu Wanning's words and asked angrily: "What do you mean by inviting a nanny for you?"

Lu Wanning said with an innocent face: "You are the nanny who was invited for me. Aunt Deng only came into the house to teach me the rules and etiquette of the palace. Wasn't she invited for me?"

"How is that possible?" Lu Wanyi shouted, "You're talking nonsense."

"I'm not talking nonsense." After Lu Wanning said with a smile, she stepped past Lu Wanyi and left. When passing by Lu Wanyi, she whispered, "Sixth sister, I advise you not to compete with me again in the future. After all, we

It will be different in the future.”
