Chapter 68, find out
At the beginning of the year, Lu Ruxue ordered Lu Feng to inquire about the slave surnamed Cao next to the second aunt, but there was no news. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
didn't want to come to Fengyang County, but found out the whereabouts of this person.
The next day, after breakfast, Lu Chengyao rarely came to Fengyang Mansion, so he naturally wanted to leave the mansion and visit friends.
The Yun family didn't have any friends in Fengyang, so they stayed in the mansion. However, there are well-informed people who will come to visit the house for various reasons.
Even if the Yun clan doesn't go out of the house, it can't be idle.
The brother and sister accompanied their mother to talk for a while, and then they took the people who served them to go out of the house and go to the street for a casual stroll.
Lu Ruxue specially arranged for Lu Feng to catch the car, and first went to Fenghua Street in Dongshi.
"Sister, I heard that the plum fish and hairy crabs in Fengyang are very delicious!"
"There is also the pot chicken, not to mention the delicious soup, and the meat quality is melt-in-your-mouth. Why don't we have lunch and go to the restaurant?"
Lu Chongyu is also a foodie, which is very similar to the two brothers and sisters.
Lu Ruxue nodded, "It's okay, send someone back to tell your mother, so as not to worry about your mother and others." ”
Lu Chongyu saw that his sister agreed, and his heart was happy, and he beckoned Mo Zhu behind him and asked him to go back to the house to spread the word.
After entering the East Market, Lu Ruxue didn't want to sit in the carriage anymore, so she put on a hat and a face towel, and walked towards the city street on foot.
Lu Chongyu also abandoned the horse and handed it over to Lu Lin, and the two watched as they walked.
"Sister, this is the phoenix painting, the so-called 'emperor is the yang phoenix', the name of the phoenix yang and the phoenix painting, but they all come from this!"
Lu Ruxue has also heard of these rumors. followed behind Lu Chongyu, and asked a few questions from time to time.
The composition of this phoenix painting has Danfeng Chaoyang, a hundred birds towards the phoenix, five phoenix towers, a phoenix unicorn, a hundred birds to offer longevity, four screens, etc.,
It absorbs the outlining and coloring techniques of the flower and bird paintings, and also accumulates the popular painting style of the New Year's paintings, and the colors are gorgeous and very festive.
Out of Dongshi, Lu Ruxue pulled Lu Chongyu and went to Nanshi. The person Lu Feng inquired about was in this southern city.
Although the East Market is also prosperous, because the commercial goods sold are some of the origins and the prices are higher, the customers are naturally not as many as those in the South Market.
And most of the merchants who can come to Nanshi have some assets at home. So as soon as you enter Nanshi, you can feel the bustling crowd. One after another shouting and shouting.
The two of them walked for a while, and they were also a little tired. Lu Ruxue chose a teahouse, asked for a window seat on the second floor, and sat down to rest.
"After walking this way, I even bought two packs of things for my brother. It's my sister, except for a little interest in the phoenix painting, it seems that everything else is just swept away?"
Cai Yue poured tea for the third young master and the eldest lady, and then stepped aside. Lu Chongyu took the tea, but he didn't rush to drink it, but looked at his sister curiously.
"I didn't think about what to buy, but my brother knew that I had always been simple. There is no shortage of things in the house, so naturally I am not very interested in those things that I can't use. ”
Lu Ruxue is used to being thrifty, and only buys useful ones, not good-looking ones.
"The string of hair inlaid with guava in the silver building just now, I look at it very well. I wanted to buy it for my sister, but you wanted to stop me. ”
Lu Chongyu is all year round, and he doesn't know how many things he wants to receive from his sister. But at most, I will send some gadgets as a thank you.
It was rare that he took a fancy to the expensive hair ornament, and wanted to buy something decent and give it to his sister. But I don't want my sister to be unappreciative.
As an elder brother, Lu Chongyu obviously felt that his status had been damaged. With a look of anger on his face, he glared at Lu Ruxue.
"It's not a precious gem, it's just a little more festive!"
"The shopkeeper, when he saw that you and I were wearing silk ribbons and jade, he opened his mouth and asked for thirty taels of silver, whether it was worth it or not!"
Seeing Lu Ruxue's explanation, Lu Chongyu's face was still not stretched, and he said one more word.
"If my brother wants to give my sister something, it's better to wait for us to enter Beijing and go to the 'Duobao Pavilion' to have a look. My sister likes the stuff there!"
Because of the ban on the sea ordered by the imperial court, many merchant ships of Fanbang could not communicate with merchants. Therefore, the things sold in the "Duobao Pavilion" are even more rare.
Hearing what his sister said, Lu Chongyu had a smile on his face again.
Lu Ruxue smiled secretly in her heart, after all, her brother is just a child who pretends to be an adult, and she loves to be coquettish when she has nothing to do.
Lu Ruxue was talking to her brother, but her eyes drifted out of the window.
The shopkeeper of the shop opposite is the Cao family, who had an affair with the second aunt, the son of Cao's mother.
Lu Feng left the house early this morning and had already inquired about the man. That's why Lu Ruxue, intentionally or unintentionally, pulled her brother here.
When the cup of tea was about to end, I saw two people walking out of the shop.
Lu Feng, who was guarding across the street, waved to the window on the second floor of the teahouse, and signaled to the eldest lady, the person who came out to see off the guests was the shopkeeper surnamed Cao that the eldest lady was looking for.
Lu Ruxue leaned slightly towards the window and looked at this person carefully. Seeing this, Lu Ruxue suddenly had an idea.
This person's face is actually five points similar to his cousin Lu Rushuang. Especially the lips that were as thin as a sharp edge and as narrow as a willow.
You must know that the men in Lufu have square lips and straight lips, and there have never been people with thin lips.
And the second aunt is not a thin-lipped person, so after Lu Rushuang was born at that time, Mrs. Tai also had doubts.
It was Cao's mother who said at the time, saying that the father of the second aunt looked like this, and Mrs. Tai believed in the inheritance of the next generation.
It is also because the second master has no heirs, and Mrs. Tai can't bear to continue to investigate, so she has been deceived for more than ten years, and she still doesn't know about it.
If she hadn't heard those words before, Lu Ruxue would also believe in the heredity of the next generation.
You have to know what she looked like in her previous life, she looked very much like her grandmother. But now she doesn't believe it. This man must be Lu Rushuang's father.
Lu Chongyu saw his sister staring at the shopkeeper on the opposite street, and kept watching. I couldn't help but look at it curiously.
"Hey, where does this man seem to have seen him?"
Lu Chongyu didn't know what was going on, so he only felt that this person was familiar, but he didn't associate it with Lu Rushuang.
Lu Chongyu's unintentional words strengthened Lu Ruxue's guess. This person must be in the same vein as Lu Rushuang.
Otherwise, how could two completely unrelated people look so similar.
If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, if Lu Ruxue hadn't gotten the news first, she wouldn't have been so sure.
It's just that once this matter is exposed, how will the second uncle's family react. Whether her grandfather and grandmother would blame her for her troubles, and therefore dislike her from now on, she is not sure.
So before the matter was decided, Lu Ruxue did not plan to tell Lu Chongyu. So he found an excuse and broke people away.
