Chapter 51: Looking for Trouble
Feng has been having a bad time lately.
At this time, the shop business is losing money, the money that should be collected at the end of the year cannot be recovered, and even the release of the printing money has been delayed again and again.
The Liu family has not been separated, the old lady is in charge, the Feng family has been operating for many years, and the generous handwriting has raised Lu Li, the fiancΓ©e of King Ping, who is the leader in the Liu family, and even the wife and sister-in-law of the elder sect who have a decree have pressed over, and no matter who inside and outside, they have to look up to her.
She has been operating for a long time, firstly, she hopes that her status is high, and secondly, she hopes to be good with the old lady, and she can take the lion's head in the future. Now she can't even take out the New Year's money, and no one will believe her when she says it!
Years of hard work will be ruined...... Feng Shi has bitterness and can't say it. It's just that the New Year's gift of the Ping Wangfu has not yet arrived, and she can't embezzle it if she wants to.
After more than ten years of smooth sailing, Feng Shi understood for the first time what it meant to 'have a difficult year'. The things in charge of the courtyard came and went, but no matter what method she came up with, it didn't go well, and the situation didn't take a turn for the better, and she was on the verge of collapse at any time, and she didn't have time to care about anything else.
Liu Wenli has been here several times, but she has never seen her mother. She knew that her mother was very busy, but she had always been favored, and in the past, no matter how busy her mother was, she remembered to care about her, but this time she encountered such a thing, but her mother didn't even listen!
She felt aggrieved.
Three days ago, Qin Lurou returned from visiting relatives, and a group of little sisters made an appointment to see her, and she brought all of her gifts, but she was less of her own. Liu Wenli felt that something was wrong at that time, among the little sisters, she and Qin Lurou went the closest, the two were the best, Qin Lurou forgot that no one should forget her!
Qin Lurou explained that she was too busy and left her share, so she didn't be surprised, who called them the best. Liu Wenli accepted this reason, but after that, Qin Lurou ignored her, even if she deliberately approached to grab the conversation, Qin Lurou smiled faintly and changed the topic without a trace.
It's tired of her.
But why? Qin Lu's flexible son is refreshing and spicy, not uncomplicated, she has always maintained a good relationship with her according to the method taught by her mother, and she is sure that she has not offended her, how can she ......
During the banquet, the ladies asked about Qin Lurou's outing. The girl's family is also curious and likes to listen to stories, so Qin Lurou talked about the Ciguang Temple case. This case is complicated and tortuous, and there are a lot of internal facts, including the princess's tomb, the tomb keeper, the monk, the county official, the master and servant of the Meng family, the mysterious autopsy, and the color entanglement, which can arouse people's imagination and curiosity the most.
Qin Lurou has always been with her sister, and she doesn't know much about the case, but it doesn't affect her guessing, especially what the girl's family is interested in. She half-concealed and half-concealed her private affairs, and used exaggerated and mysterious words to talk about the autopsy, which caused many exclamations.
Liu Wenli's heart also tugged when she listened, especially when Qin Lurou said that she was dissecting.
During this period, Qin Lurou mentioned Lu Li several times. didn't say Lu Li's name, only said that 'King Ping's fiancΓ©e' met Shanyang by chance and helped her brother-in-law Huang Xianling solve the case, like divine help, very powerful. When he spoke, he glanced at Liu Wenli calmly.
Others don't know who King Ping's fiancΓ©e is, but Liu Wenli does! Isn't it Lu Li's shameful goods! She heard her mother say that Lu Li went out, did this person actually run to Shanyang! I don't know what means I used to get on the Huang County Order...... Qin Lurou ruined her reputation!
Liu Wenli bit her lip tightly, feeling that there was no other way. Qin Lurou's appearance was too strange, she always felt that if it weren't for the large number of people and Qin Lurou's spirit was not very good, she would have experienced even more terrible things......
It must have been Lu Li's way of getting the green eyes of Huangxian Ling, saying something bad to the Liu family, especially to her, and maybe mentioning that she was close to Qin Lurou. Huang County ordered Danfan to be dissatisfied after hearing this, as long as he mentioned it to Mrs. Huang, Qin Lurou would be reprimanded by his sister......
That's why she ignores herself.
Liu Wenli wanted to try to quietly mention the name Lu Li to see Qin Lurou's reaction, but Qin Lurou didn't give her a chance.
The more she thought about it, the more wrong it became, Lu Li could bully her if she ran so far, how could she bear it! ran to his mother to ask for comfort, and wanted his mother to clean him up, but his mother didn't even have time to see her!
Liu Wenli stomped her feet outside the corridor with a handkerchief, and her eyes were covered with a layer of mist.
This appearance happened to be seen by Wang's mother, who led the way to bring the guests.
Mother Wang is a useful person by Feng's side, and Feng punished her in order to appease Lu Li before, but she was too busy to call her back these days. Mother Wang has never been able to mix in the position of serving Feng's personal family, at most she listens to Feng's personal mother's command to help discipline her subordinates, especially looking at Lu Li's side. Before, because Zhao Zhu's front teeth were gone, there was basically no hope of climbing up with poor appearance, and the one he hated the most in his heart was Lu Li.
It's not easy to climb up, but if you can win the master's favor, the treatment is not bad...... Seeing that there was no one around, she walked over quietly and bowed respectfully, "Say hello to Miss." β
Liu Wenli knew Mother Wang, and knew that she was in charge of looking at Lu Li before, and her brows furrowed slightly, "Mother Wang." β
"I didn't expect Miss to remember the old slave, this is really ...... It's really ......" Wang's mother looked excited and very moved.
Liu Wenli's eyes flashed slightly, this slave seemed to be quite loyal...... She beckoned, asked Mother Wang to come closer, and said in a low voice, "I'll ask you something, and you will answer me honestly." β
Mother Wang was immediately solemn, "Miss asks casually!" The old slave is the most loyal lady, the lady loves you the most, you understand, the old slave dares to have a word that is illiterate, and the sky is ......"
Liu Wenli lazily listened to her show of loyalty, and waved her hand impatiently, "Okay, let me ask you, can the decorated goods in the deserted courtyard have dealings with King Ping?" Like letters? β
Mother Wang covered her mouth when she heard this, and was very surprised, "What did Miss say this?" In the past ten years, the prince has never said a word, how could there be a letter? β
"Really?"
"The old slave swore with the life of his family, but there was really nothing." Mother Wang looked left and right and took a step forward, "Just like him, he is still a man, he can't give birth, who will look down on him?" The prince is in a high position, what kind of girl does he want, and she will marry him? The prince has never been here, so he obviously doesn't care about him......"
Liu Wenli's eyes were a little hot, "Mom, be careful when you speak!" What gives birth to ......"
Mother Wang saw that Liu Wenli's face was a little red, and she stretched out her hand and slapped her mouth, "Look at the old slave's mouth, I forgot everything when I talked seriously, miss, don't be surprised, the old slave just thinks that no truth can be hidden......" Seeing that Liu Wenli was a little ashamed, but obviously happy to hear such news, Mother Wang's eyes rolled, "But what the old slave said is true, there are three unfilial pieties, and there is no queen, Prince Ping will not want to marry a male wife." β
Her lips squirmed, and she whispered an example, "The prince is busy, but if you really have the heart, you can't even squeeze out the time to come once in ten years?" The people who escort the car in the palace every year are the stewards of the outer courtyard, and they have never brought words, no instructions, and they don't even see the one who they see, and they just let the things go. The old slave guessed that the prince must not want this family business, and he didn't know how to retreat, so he kept dragging it out. It's not that the old slave is talking nonsense, the annual rites of the palace are rare things in our county, but in the big families in the capital, what is this? The things that I really want to give away are much more valuable. Besides, in previous years, the New Year's gift came as soon as it entered the lunar month, and this year it is almost a small year, and I haven't seen it...... If you think about it, you will know the deep meaning in your heart. β
Yes, that is, the palace New Year's Gift didn't come at this time, and he must have wanted to withdraw from his family! Liu Wenli stirred the veil, Lu Li's only use in their family is this, if he doesn't even have a name, look at how crazy he is!
She looked into the courtyard, and her mother's tired voice could be faintly heard from so far away. Every New Year's Eve is very busy, but there is no time that I am so busy, and my tired voice is sandy. It seems that it is difficult for the mother, is it also related to the fact that the New Year's gift did not come?
Liu Wenli clenched her fists tightly, she must clean up Lu Li! If it weren't for this broom star, mother, how could she have fallen into such a situation!
At this time, the little maid in her courtyard came over to report: The little girl outside saw Lu Li coming back.
Liu Wenli suddenly raised her eyebrows, her eyes were like electricity, and he still knew that he was back! came back just in time, and if he didn't teach him a lesson, he forgot what this family name was!
"Check it out!"
Liu Wenli walked out in a high-spirited manner, and Mother Wang also followed, "The old slave waits for Miss." β
Liu Wenli squinted, "Mother Wang, I know that you have always been loyal, but that shameful thing is disrespectful to my mother and bullies me...... You need to know how to deal with it. β
Mother Wang's back straightened, her face was stern, and her voice was loud, "The old slave always knows who the master is!" β
A bunch of people rushed to the front yard.
The way back is much faster than when I go, first, I have less thoughts about enjoying the scenery and playing, and secondly, I have bought too many things and it is inconvenient to stop and go.
Guan County is not big, and you will basically go home when you enter the city. Shen Wansha looked at the few limousines he was carrying behind and discussed with Lu Li, "Your place is too small to put it, I'll pull the things into my yard first, and then give them to you, and pull them over for Xiaomeng." β
"More than half of the three cars are yours, you tidy up just right, I'm still free," Lu Li agreed very much, "But don't be too busy, go back and take a shower and rest first, I'll send a letter to Xiao Meng, let's go over together later, and have dinner at his house tonight." β
"Okay!"
The two of them were chatting, Zhao Shu opened the curtain and looked out, and when he saw Hong You, who was falling far away, he made a gesture, and he understood that the things that had been arranged had been done.
Lu Li's courtyard was too narrow in front of the gate, and the slightly wider carriage couldn't get in, so Lu Li got out of the car at the entrance of the alley, carried his baggage, and entered the alley with Zhao Zhu.
Thinking that he could take a good rest when he came back, Lu Li was in a very good mood, but as soon as he put his things down, the water didn't have time to boil the tea, and he didn't have time to brew the tea, when he heard a sharp voice outside the door, "You still know to come back!" β
Shuzhong was damp, the room didn't smell a little bad for a few days, and he didn't light the charcoal basin just when he came back, Lu Li opened the window to breathe, and heard the sound and looked out along the pane, okay, it's Liu Wenli again.
He rolled his eyes, did this girl remember to eat or not, not long ago he guessed that her handle knocked a sum of silver, and she forgot it so quickly?
Hearing the crisp sound of the knuckle 'click, click' activity, Lu Li turned his head......
Zhao Zhu's face was dark, and he clenched his fists as if he wanted to kill someone! It's exactly the same as the expression on the day when I killed someone!
Lu Li hurriedly held his hand, "It's just a woman with a broken mouth, don't be impulsive!" β
Zhao Zhu looked at Lu Li, his eyebrows and eyes were deep.
Lu Li swallowed his saliva, his attitude was solemn and resolute, "In short, you can't kill people casually!" β
Zhao Shu let go of his fist, "I'll go out with you." β
This is no problem, Lu Li smiled, "Okay." β
The two walked out of the room, Liu Wenli happened to walk to the middle of the courtyard, and just shouted impulsively, but now she felt that she had a share, so she gave Wang's mother a look.
Mother Wang stood up and pointed at Lu Li, "Why don't you salute when Miss comes!" β
Lu Li laughed, "You minion...... Can you learn to be inferior to the elderly? Is it me big, or is Liu Wenli big? When she saw my cousin, she didn't go forward to say hello, but no one reminded her that there was no one in the Liu family? A good young lady has been taught by you to be an ignorant stupid woman in the countryside, even if you are not ashamed to hang yourself, you dare to beat a rake! "Tricksters
