Of course, Lu Youping did not refuse, and said with a smile: "Go, the new mansion is very big, and dad specially arranged an independent courtyard for you."

"Thank you, dad." Lu Mingzhu saluted cheerfully and quickly asked someone to take her to see the new yard.

"You all should go and take a look at your own yards. Qiaoer and Xiaoer also have their own yards." Lu Youping looked at everyone and said with a smile.

When Lu Qiao heard this, her pretty face immediately glowed with joy: "Thank you, dad."

Except for Lu Mingzhu, Lu Qiao and Lu Xiao, whose new courtyards were renamed, the other courtyards still follow the original names of the Lu family.

The division of Lu Luo was arranged by the old lady and then handed over to Lu Youping, so the old lady gave the best courtyard to Lu Xiang without hesitation, and the largest to Lu Chao and Qiao Jingru. Even if Lu Mingzhu is now

Her achievements were higher than those of Lu Xiang. In the old lady's mind, her good granddaughter should have the best.

The old lady liked peace and quiet, so she still chose a remote and quiet yard.

The servants moved things in one by one in an orderly manner.

Lu Xiang stood at the door of the new courtyard, looking a little dazed. In her previous life, this courtyard was occupied by Lu Mingzhu. Because they were both legitimate daughters and had their father's favor, she was naturally assigned to the best courtyard. At that time, her grandmother

Although he loved her, he was not close to her, and was heartbroken because of the pressure between her and her father to make Liu the mistress, so he was far less hands-on than in this life, so he did not personally choose a yard for her.

Yunzhe and Wuyue looked at each other, seeing doubts in each other's eyes.

Why does the lady's expression look a little sad?

After moving to a new house and getting promoted, shouldn't it be a happy thing?

"Miss, aren't you going in?" Aman saw Lu Xiang in a daze, so he asked directly.

Lu Xiang came back to her senses, glanced at Ah Man and said with a smile: "If you want to enter, won't you be surprised by this big courtyard?"

Well……

Yunzhe and Wuyue were stunned for a moment, and then realized that it was really quite big.

There are lush peonies planted in the yard, standing gracefully. There is a wisteria in the center. It is in bloom at this moment, exuding bursts of floral fragrance. You can smell the refreshing fragrance from a long distance. A gust of wind blows over, and the branches and leaves are

They all sway with the wind, making the whole courtyard full of life.

Because everyone had just moved into the house, there were too many things to put away and tidy up, so the whole house was busy for several days. Fortunately, it was busy but not chaotic.

The sun shone warmly through the gaps in the leaves, and Ah Man jumped into the yard.

Hongyin, who was busy in the courtyard, saw Aman's innocent face and snorted heavily: "Everyone is busy, and she is the only one who is idle. What do you mean?"

Yuxiang quickly bumped her with her elbow and said warily: "Yunzhe and Wuyue didn't say anything. What are you worrying about? Just get to work quickly."

"I'm just not convinced. It's just because Yunzhe and Wuyue are so busy that she just eats without doing anything. Why?"

Hibiscus in the distance heard Hongyin's complaint and came over: "Who said Aman didn't work? She has moved in almost all the gifts and baggage in our yard these days. Don't forget that she also returned

You have moved to salute."

Hongyin: "..." We are no longer good sisters who share the same hatred.

Mu Jin looked at Hongyin who was as angry as a baby and poked her face: "Don't complain and work quickly. Although the third lady is kind to us, it doesn't mean she has no temper."

Hongyin: "Oh."

Aman went directly to Nuange to find Lu Xiang. When he knocked on the door and entered, he saw Lu Xiang concentrated on embroidery.

"Miss, here you go."

As she spoke, she thrust a mahogany box in her hand under Lu Xiang's eyes.

"Huh?" Lu Xiang raised his head in confusion and looked at Aman: "What is it?"

Ah Man looked even more confused than Lu Xiang and shook his head: "I don't know this. Just as I went to the kitchen to find something to eat, Sheng Xian suddenly jumped down from the tree and stuffed this into my hand, saying that it was given to me by His Highness.

Miss, it will definitely be inconvenient to meet Miss now that she has just arrived in Beijing, so this small gift is a happy move to Miss."

Lu Xiang's head turned dark: "You said Sheng Xian entered our house?"

Does this guy treat the Lu family as his back garden, so he can come and go as he pleases?

"Don't worry, miss, no one has discovered you." Ah Man said.

Lu Xiang: "..."

Is this the point?

I really don't know whether I should complain about the weak guards in my house or praise Sheng Xian's martial arts skills.

Well, with the Lu family's current status, they can't afford to hire capable guards to look after the house and the courtyard.

"Miss, open it and see what His Highness has given you?" Ah Man said curiously, pushing the box forward again.

Lu Xiang took it and opened it, only to see a white jade hairpin lying quietly on the red silk cloth. One end of the hairpin was carved with a lying rabbit. The rabbit's eyes were full of tenderness and lifelike.

It was simple and unpretentious, but Lu Xiang felt strange in his heart the moment he saw it.

Her zodiac sign is rabbit!

"Aman, I can't accept it. Please help me return it to His Highness the Eighth Prince."

Ah Man tilted his head and said: "Miss, this is a gift from His Highness to congratulate Miss on her move-in. Wouldn't it be better to refuse it?"

this……

Lu Xiang was speechless. As Chu Jinyan, if he knew that the gift he sent was returned, it would be a slap in Chi Guoguo's face. When Lu Xiang thought of his handsome face that was covered with ice due to anger,

, I couldn't help but shiver.

But wouldn’t it be troublesome for a girl who has not yet left the court to accept a gift from a man?

If it weren't for her acquaintance with Chu Jinyan, Lu Xiang would have doubted whether this man was deliberately trying to trick her.

Unable to accept it, Lu Xiang held the hairpin like a hot potato. She sighed and accepted her fate.

Go back and tell Wuyue to hide and press it to the bottom of the box!

After half a month of busy work, the Lu family gradually got back on track. The old lady invited everyone to have a meal at Fuyuantang as a celebration.

"We have just arrived in the capital and don't know many people, so this housewarming party won't be a big one. Today, my family will have a meal to congratulate your father on being appointed Minister of the Ministry of Industry, and to celebrate our move to a new residence and settling in the capital."

The old lady held up the wine glass, her wrinkled face was glowing red, and even the wrinkles looked particularly gentle under the candlelight.

"What mother said is that our Lu family will only get better and better in the future." Lu Youping said with a smile on his face. After speaking, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

The rest of the people raised their glasses.

At this time, Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "I have a happy event here."

"What's the matter?" Lu Youping looked at Ms. Liu with bright eyes.

Everyone looked at Liu, who was betraying her.

"There are people coming to the palace this afternoon. Concubine Zhen Mingzhu will come to the palace tomorrow to pay homage to Concubine Shu."

"Really?" Lu Youping was shocked.

Mrs. Liu covered her mouth and chuckled: "Master, I don't dare to joke about this kind of thing."
