The snow outside was still falling one after another, Qiu'er added some charcoal, and seeing that Lu Zhi was still looking out the window, she couldn't help but remind softly: "Miss, don't look at this snow for a long time, it's not good for your eyes." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Lu Zhi blinked and smiled at her: "Hmm." ”

After speaking, she got up, came to the charcoal fire and stretched out her hand, slowly roasted and said lightly: "On such a cold day, I don't know if the river is frozen." ”

Chun'er brought her a cup of hot tea and handed it to her: "It shouldn't be yet, didn't Liang Gongzi send a letter two days ago, saying that he had prepared the goods and was ready to set off from Jiangnan?" If it had frozen, he would not have been able to walk by water. ”

Lu Zhi took a sip of the teacup and said lightly: "Jiangnan is not as good as the north, no matter how cold the river is, it will not freeze, but the north is different, if the river is frozen, Liang Jianfeng needs to find a suitable way quickly." ”

Xia Er didn't quite understand: "There is no shortage of goods in Zhijie, and the stock is sufficient, why is Miss so worried about Liang Gongzi's transportation of goods into Beijing?" ”

Lu Zhi was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then smiled slightly: "It's nothing, it's okay to be idle, just worry about it." ”

Hearing her say this, Xia Er smiled: "Miss is really idle for a while, not only take out the calculated account book and count it again, but also count the silver tickets if you have nothing to do, people who don't know still think that Miss is a money fan." ”

Hearing this, Lu Zhi also smiled, but did not answer her words.

At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door outside, Lu Zhi turned her eyes to look at the courtyard door through the window, and saw the rough mother-in-law open the courtyard door, and Song Cheng walked in in a hurry, wearing a fur coat and a hat.

His brows were furrowed, and his face was gloomy.

Seeing this, Qiu'er and Chun'er hurriedly opened the door, Song Cheng entered the house covered in snow, and as soon as he stood still, he looked at Lu Zhi and said in a deep voice: "Old lady Wu is seriously ill. ”

Lu Zhi panicked when she heard this, and hurriedly stood up: "What did you say?" ”

"I know you don't want to believe it, but it's true." Song Cheng looked at her and said word by word: "Old lady Wu is seriously ill, and Third Master Wu has already sent a letter to his family, but now that the traffic is blocked in the ice and snow, it is impossible for this letter to arrive in a month and a half." This is the superstition of the secret agent flying pigeon in my house, you ......"

Before Song Cheng finished speaking, Lu Zhi hurriedly took the superstition and looked at it, only to see that the palm-sized silk cloth read: Old lady Wu is seriously ill, and Third Master Wu has sent a letter to his family.

Lu Zhi looked at the silk cloth in a daze, and her mind was blank.

Seeing this, Song Cheng said softly on the side: "The river is already frozen, if you want to go, I can order someone to escort you, go hundreds of miles to the south, the river will be unsealed, and you can go directly by water." ”

Old Lady Wu is the most important existence in Lu Zhi's heart, even heavier than Mrs. Wu.

Because it was Mrs. Wu who gave her the feeling of home, in front of Mrs. Wu, she felt that she was a beloved child, not an item that was judged to have any use value.

If she hadn't gone to Jiangnan and had not grown up under the care of Mrs. Wu and the Wu family, she wouldn't have known what she would grow up to be in such a mercenary home, and to what extent her soul would be distorted.

It is no exaggeration to say that it was Mrs. Wu who saved her and gave her warmth and home.

Hearing that Mrs. Wu was seriously ill, Lu Zhi's whole person was in a trance, her mind was blank, and she had long lost the ability to think.

And Song Cheng's words were like a guiding light, which instantly made Lu Zhi find the direction of walking, she came back to her senses and said hurriedly: "Okay, okay, I'll go ...... now"

Qiu'er and the others heard the news that Old Lady Wu was seriously ill, and their hearts were also grief-stricken, and when they heard Lu Zhi say that they were leaving, they immediately began to pack up their things.

Qiu'er said while packing her clothes, "Miss, do you want to inform Madame?" ”

Lu Zhi was stunned, and was about to answer, but Song Cheng said on the side: "Mrs. Wu is old, the road is far away and the ice and snow, why don't you go first, after the arrival of the family letter, she will naturally know, and the ice and snow should stop at that time." ”

Lu Zhi was in a dilemma when she heard this, her mother was her grandfather's only daughter, although she said cruel things back then, but she never let go of her love for her daughter, otherwise she would not love the house and Wu would love her well. Now that my grandfather is seriously ill, my mother should go back anyway.

But what Song Cheng said is not unreasonable, his mother is old, and the road is cold and snowy, and the waterway is not passable, so there are indeed too many inconveniences.

Just when she was in a dilemma, Chun'er said on the side: "Miss, the slave maid thinks that what Song Gongzi said has some truth, Madame had rheumatism last year, and now this weather is the time to attack." ”

Hearing this, Lu Zhi no longer hesitated, and said to Song Cheng: "I'm tired of you." ”

Song Cheng smiled lightly: "It's okay, there is no need to be polite between you and me." ”

Soon the things were packed up, Qiu'er brought a hat, gloves and cloak for Lu Zhi, prepared the hand stove, and then went out with her.

When she came to the door, Lu Zhi looked at Chun'er and Xia'er who followed and said, "It's a long way to go, Qiu'er can go with me, you two stay, or make a round for me, if my grandfather is fine, I will come back early." ”

Chun'er and Xia'er nodded in response, sent Lu Zhi out of the door, and watched her get into the carriage that Song Cheng had already prepared.

On the way back, a servant asked, and the two said that Lu Zhi was invited by Song Cheng to go out to enjoy the snow.

Not long after Song Cheng's carriage left, Xiao Fuzi arrived with the holy decree, and the people of the Lu Mansion heard that Xiao Fuzi had come to announce the decree and hurriedly greeted him.

Xiao Fuzi smiled and waited happily, but when he swept his eyes, he found that everyone in the Lu family was there, but there was no main Lu Zhi.

Immediately, he smiled and frowned, "What about Miss Lu?" ”

Now in this house, there is only one Lu girl, Lu Zhi, hearing this, Lu Shaofu immediately said to Chun'er: "What about your young lady?" Hurry up and let her come out to receive the order! ”

Chun'er and Xia'er looked at each other, and didn't know how to answer for a while, Xiaofuzi is now holding the holy decree in his hand, if he lies to his face at this moment, it is the crime of deceiving the king, but if he tells the truth......

Xiaofuzi was a little anxious: "Where is your young lady?" Miscellaneous people are waiting, this holy decree can't wait! ”

Hearing this, Chun'er and Xia'er couldn't, so they told Song Cheng that Old Lady Wu was seriously ill and Lu Zhi had set off for Jiangnan.

When Xiaofuzi heard this, he was immediately annoyed: "When did your young lady leave?!" ”

"Just before the stick of incense that my father-in-law came."

When Xiao Fuzi heard that the holy decree was no longer announced, he stomped his feet in annoyance, turned around and hurriedly walked outside the house, and as soon as he got into the carriage, he immediately ordered: "Quick! Back to the palace! ”

When Xiaofuzi rushed to the palace, Duan Yi was returning from the Qianqing Palace and was bathing, after hearing Xiaofuzi's words, he got up from the pool suddenly, put on a shirt and walked out, and his cold voice was better than the ice and snow in the sky: "Change clothes, Xiaofuzi prepares horses!" ”
