Chapter 111: The villain is framed
Saying that, after breakfast, Lu Yunqian still got up in the Zhou family's donkey cart and rushed to the county town to find Zhou Lang.
The donkey cart was slow and leisurely, and it was fast, and in less than a stick of incense, it arrived at the door of the Zhou family's medicinal herb shop.
Lu Yunqian looked at the still lively county town, got up and got out of the carriage.
As soon as she walked into the shop, the shopkeeper saw her and immediately hurried up to her: "Grandma, you are here." ”
He greeted Lu Yunqian.
Lu Yunqian smiled at the gentleness and politeness of the shopkeeper: "The shopkeeper is good." ”
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be. Hearing Lu Yunqian's polite treatment of these subordinates, the shopkeeper hurriedly waved his hand, but it was an excellent image of the young grandmother of the Zhou family.
"I heard from my mother that my second brother recently wrote to me that there was something wrong with my business. My mother has inconvenient legs and feet, and I am worried about my second brother, so I will come to see it. Lu Yunqian said.
When the shopkeeper heard this, his face was sad, and he didn't know how to speak.
Lu Yunqian looked at him like this, and was shocked, could there really be something wrong?
She hurriedly asked, "What's going on?
As she spoke, she took a look at the Zhou family's medicinal herb shop, and saw that the store was still full of people, and she vaguely looked at it the same as when she brought Zhou Huan that day, and she couldn't see the difference there.
The shopkeeper was surprised to see her, although he thought that she might not understand the accounts, even if he said it, he would be worried in vain, but Zhou Da Shao's grandmother was kind, and people couldn't help but want to tell her everything.
So he spoke: "The eldest young grandmother doesn't know, the second young master has recently done business with a wealthy businessman in Jinzhou City, but our rival next door has secretly done something inside. When the rich merchant got the goods, he didn't listen to our explanation, and forced him to go to the Jin army overseer, which made people not know what to do. ”
The rich merchant also threatened to let the Overseers arrest the second young master. What about the seizure of our medicinal herb shop! The second young master has been busy recently, let alone going home, even if he is in the shop, he can't rest for long. ”
The shopkeeper closed his eyes helplessly, chopped his feet slightly, clasped his hands together and slapped them twice, and his face was sad.
"Jin army overseer, what is the relationship between the rich merchant and the Jin army? A small thing can alarm the Jin army?" Lu Yunqian was a little puzzled. It stands to reason that this is a competition between the two merchants, and it has nothing to do with the Jin army.
"Grandma Da Young doesn't know, one of the sisters of the rich merchant is the aunt of an adjutant under the Jin Army Overseer, and it is also convenient to get things done. ”
"This time, the rich merchant joined forces with our sworn enemy to completely wipe out our Zhou family's medicinal herb shop. ”
Said the shopkeeper with a long sigh.
"What do you say?" At this time, Zhou Lang came out from behind the curtain in the backyard, wearing a blue and ink-colored robe lining his face like a crown of jade, but his gentle and smiling eyes were slightly deep and tired at this time.
"Second brother. Lu Yunqian nodded at him.
Zhou Lang was surprised to see Lu Yunqian, raised his eyebrows slightly, and greeted her with a smile: "Hello, sister-in-law." Why is my sister-in-law free today?"
Lu Yunqian naturally smiled back: "Because my mother told me in the morning that you haven't been home for a few days recently, my mother is very worried, but she is not in good health, so she asked me to come to the county seat to have a look." ”
After listening to this, Zhou Lang nodded and said, "It's okay." Mothers and sisters-in-law don't have to worry too much. I'll go home when I'm done with this side of things. ”
Lu Yunqian said: "I heard from the shopkeeper just now, you are now under attack from both sides, if that rich merchant is determined to ask you to repay the shop in the county town for his losses, and is oppressed by the Jin army, what can you do?"
Zhou Lang's eyes drooped slightly when he heard this, and he glanced at the shopkeeper next to him.
The shopkeeper's eyes suddenly turned around, knowing that he had said too much, which made the second young master unhappy. Colorful Chinese
Seeing this scene, Lu Yunqian smiled faintly, and said to Zhou Lang: "Second brother, don't blame the shopkeeper. We are a family, and it is natural for us to know something. Could it be that the second brother is still planning to hide it from me?"
Zhou Lang really didn't think about telling her and his mother about it, but it was useless to worry them when he heard it. But now that his sister-in-law says so, naturally she can't dismiss her face.
"What my sister-in-law said was that I was wrong with me. I thought that I would wait until I was done dealing with these things and then go home to talk to you, but I didn't expect my sister-in-law to arrive so soon. ”
"What does the second brother think now?" Lu Yunqian asked.
Zhou Lang glanced around and said to Lu Yunqian, "Sister-in-law, come to the backyard with me." ”
Lu Yunqian also looked at the store, the store was noisy, and there were many people coming and going, it was indeed not a good environment to talk.
So he and Zhou Lang came to the backyard, still sitting under the begonia tree.
"I thought I might as well go to Jinju and ask for a favor in the Overseer's Mansion. This matter has reached the Overseer's Palace, and if you don't make it clear, I'm afraid it won't end well. ”
Lu Yunqian nodded when he heard this.
Indeed, at this time, he went directly to the Overseer's Mansion to explain in person, which seemed that the Zhou family was more sincere, and maybe things might turn around.
The rich merchant lives in Jinzhou, and is involved in the Overseer's Mansion, and their Zhou family is far away from the emperor at this time, if they don't go in person, they don't let what others say.
However, although the Zhou family is a serious merchant registered in the Overseer's Mansion, there is no one in the Mansion, and I am afraid that it will be even more difficult, and how to enter the Overseer's Mansion is a problem, let alone an interview.
In these years, it still depends on relationships.
Wait, it suddenly occurred to her that the Jinju Overseers in this world were not night scenes!
She also has a jade pendant given by the night view in her hand, if she takes this jade pendant to look for it, he should meet it.
She was still thinking that she wouldn't be able to use this jade pendant at the time, but she didn't expect to be slapped in the face so quickly.
"Second brother, I have an Overseer's jade pendant there, you can take it, and you should be able to enter the Overseer's Mansion. She spoke.
Zhou Lang was full of surprise when he heard this: "How did the overseer's jade pendant come into existence?"
Lu Yunqian also knew Zhou Lang's doubts, not to mention that women in the current society are involved with men, even if they have men's belongings, it is difficult to say.
Not to mention that the original owner Li Xianglan never goes out, how to encounter the night scene is a problem.
"Don't ask about this, the jade pendant was originally given to my father by chance, and it was given to me as a dowry. Lu Yunqian casually made up a sentence and passed over.
After Zhou Lang listened, he didn't say anything. He is not familiar with Li Xianglan's family, and if Li's father has this opportunity, he will not know.
"Then you can try. Zhou Lang nodded.
"Then I'll go home and get it now. When will the second brother leave for Jinju?"
Zhou Lang smiled: "Naturally, the sooner the better." I wanted to leave some time ago, but I couldn't trust the relationship. Now that you have the credentials, it's better to start early. ”
Lu Yunqian nodded, and was about to leave to go back to Zhou's house to get the jade pendant, but System 1203 said in his mind in a mechanical voice:
"Ding! Please go to Jinju to help the Zhou family solve their predicament. After completing the mission, there will be a wealth of rewards. ”
