Chapter 4 Changing Uncle’s Fate

"She is the daughter that our Lu family has been waiting for for a long time, and she was born in the morning, so why not call her Lu Chaochao. Chao means morning, which represents hope."

Xu’s head was slightly lowered, her eyes were red.

Hearing this name, he grabbed the brocade quilt on the bed, his fingers turning white.

 My heart felt like it was tightly grasped.

She once went to Lu Yuanze's study.

 There is a thick stack of white paper in the study room, with names written all over it.

 Lu Jingyao, a man with high mountain scenery and beautiful flowers and trees, has an extraordinary appearance, extraordinary intelligence, and is favored by thousands of people.

 Lu knows the kite, knows the book and is polite, the kite flies and the fish leaps.

Each name is carefully chosen, and he bestows all expectations and blessings on it.

 And her daughter…

 Only got a morning sun.

She was dissatisfied with the names of her three children back then, but now she doesn't want to wrong her daughter anymore.

"How about..." Before he could finish his words, a cheerful babbling sound sounded in his ears.

                                                             loy |

Xu Shi sighed lightly and checked her name.

“Look at how happy she is, let’s call her Chao Chao.” She ticked her daughter’s little nose, and the little guy stretched out his hand and grabbed her index finger.

 Five little fingers, barely enough to hold her index finger.

Hold your index finger and place it on your soft cheek [Mother, don’t cry, mother, don’t be afraid, Chao Chao will protect you...]

  【Chaochao super super super super super awesome, so awesome】The little guy looked like he was showing off.

 Xu's eyes were still filled with tears.

Hearing this, I couldn't help but curl my lips, feeling warm in my heart.

"Mother Yun, thank you for your hard work these days. There are a lot of things going on in the court, so I will probably be a little busy this month." Lu Yuanze looked a little guilty, and every time he showed such an expression, Mrs. Xu would advise him to take into account the overall situation and not be limited. Children love each other forever.

Who knows, he spends all his time in the outer room.

Her virtuousness actually stabbed herself.

"You and I are husband and wife, how can I blame you? It's just that we have wronged our court." Mrs. Xu touched her daughter, looking a little lonely.

Lu Yuanze glanced at the infant Lu Chaochao.

 He couldn't help but compare.

 Speaking of which, Lu Chaochao and Lu Jingyao were born on the same day, so they were both born yesterday.

Jingyao's whole body was bright red when she was born, probably not growing, her skin was wrinkled, and she cried like a kitten.

 Lu Chaochao was fair and fat, with skin as white as snow, and even his eyebrows and eyelashes were long and thick.

A pair of bright eyes, not afraid of life, really ice and snow, just like the virgin under the Guanyin Seat.

Lu Yuanze glanced at it and then looked away.

 His Jingyao is different.

Lu Yuanze felt a little more fiery in his heart.

"Our family has wronged Chaochao, and daddy will make amends to Chaochao. Then daddy, give the hot spring villa to Chaochao as daddy's apology." Lu Yuanze picked her up with a smile.

"Why don't you thank your dad quickly? There are hundreds of acres of land around the Hot Spring Villa. Daddy is a big deal, and it all belongs to a little guy like you." As soon as Xu said this, Lu Yuanze frowned.

 He only planned to give it to the Hot Spring Villa.

It can be seen that when Xu spoke, he did not refute.

 It’s just that this hot spring villa was originally given to Jing Yao, so it seems that it needs to be replaced as a gift.

    Wow, this resentful father is so rich. 】

Lu Yuanze only felt dazed for a moment before he felt a damp heat on his body.

His face froze, and he stared at the baby in his arms with wide eyes, smiling happily at him with his toothless mouth.

“Hey, hey, I’ve peed. The little lady has peed.” Yingxue hurriedly stepped forward and took the child away.

Lu Yuanze's eyebrows were darkened and he took a strong breath, but he couldn't argue with the newborn baby.

Xu secretly hid her smile.

“Master Hou, please go change your clothes quickly.”

 After Lu Yuanze left, Mrs. Xu gently patted Lu Chaochao on the butt: "Naughty."

   【He deserves it, he deserves it, he doesn't love such a beautiful mother, he deserves it, let him bully his mother! ]    After Lu Yuanze changed his clothes and came out, he sat down for a while, then got up and left.

Xu’s eyebrows drooped.

 “Let’s see where the Marquis has gone?”

Yingxue was honest and Juexia was clever. She put down the child and followed him.

After a while, he came back and reported: "I went to Deshan Hall." Deshan Hall was the old lady's residence.

“When the Marquis left, he also took the old lady’s Buddhist beads with him. I heard that the old lady was in a good mood, so she gave them to the Marquis.”

Mrs. Xu's heart was heavy. When Jue Xia saw that his wife looked bad, he advised her, "This Buddha bead must be left by the Marquis to the eldest young master."

 There is a taboo in Zhongyonghou Mansion.

 The wife gave birth to three sons and one daughter.

The eldest son, Lu Yanshu, was born smart. In those years, Lu Yuanze probably had some real affection for him.

 At the age of nine, the eldest son fell into the water and became an idiot.

 Now that he is locked up in the mansion, he cannot even take care of his own urine and excrement, which has become a taboo and evil in the mansion.

Mrs. Xu went to the old lady to ask for Buddhist beads. The old lady only said that it was the fate of the inkstone.

She knelt for three days and three nights, but she still couldn't get anything.

 The old lady’s string of Buddhist beads was a gift from the abbot of Huguo Temple.

This string of beads is said to have 1,808 beads.

 Each one is extremely precious.

Huguo Temple is a royal temple and has always been respected by the whole capital. With the status of the Zhongyong Marquis, how can I get such a valuable thing.

But one year, the old abbot just glanced at her and said that the Zhongyong Hou family had great wealth, great opportunities in the future, and noble people with meritorious deeds in their descendants.

He gave me this string of Buddhist beads as a gift.

 The old lady is very precious on weekdays.

Today, it was sent out.

 Xu's heart felt uncomfortably tight.

 Dengzhi came back at night.

 Dengzhi looked pale and a little more frightened than before, and his hand trembling when he pushed the door open.

"Madam..." As soon as Dengzhi entered the door, he knelt on the ground with a snap.

Without daring to say a word, he shivered and took out the small wooden sculpture wrapped in white cloth from his arms.

  【Oh, oh, isn't this the witchcraft that killed my uncle? 】Xiao Chaochao was spitting bubbles and refused to sleep.

 Xu's hand trembled and she almost dropped the wooden sculpture to the ground.

"There is someone guarding the door, don't worry, madam." Dengzhi said while suppressing his fear.

 When she discovered this thing, her legs went weak.

 If this is discovered, the Xu family may be doomed.

 The Xu family holds great power, and if any clues are discovered, His Majesty will be suspicious of them.

 The Master of the Xu family was the Grand Tutor of the current dynasty, and His Majesty was afraid of him, so he became an official and returned home to provide for his old age.

It took a lot of effort to dispel His Majesty's wariness. If you provoke him again, I'm afraid he will have to prove the Xu family's innocence with blood!

 The eldest brother is now the third rank. Because of the shadow of his father's generation, many people in the court respect the Xu family.

This is also the reason why Zhongyong Houfu asked to marry her!

Mrs. Xu looked at the wood carving carefully. The wood carving seemed to have been soaked in blood, giving it a somewhat forbidding aura. The wooden carving was severely scratched with a knife, which made it even more shocking.

The back of the wood carving is engraved with His Majesty’s birthday and birth date.

"This handwriting..." Mrs. Xu pursed her lips tightly, gritted her teeth, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.

"This is the eldest master's handwriting." Dengzhi grew up in Xu's family, so he naturally knew Master Xu's handwriting.

Mrs. Xu burst into tears: "No, it's mine!"

 Xu's body had goosebumps all over her body, including fear, fear, and more...

 Happy.

 She is the youngest daughter in the family. She was raised by her eldest brother, who taught her how to calligraphy.

 After marrying into the house of Marquis Zhongyong, Lu Yuanze praised her good calligraphy and often asked him to teach him how to write!

 And what about yourself?

Because Lu Yuanze didn't like it, after getting married, he stopped contacting his natal family and severed ties with her natal family!
