On the second day of the Lunar New Year, it was Shui Changning's turn to cook.

He came back early.

Just like yesterday, the neighbors made fun of him and watched the excitement around him, but no one really asked him for fortune telling.

However, he was at peace and did not get angry about it.

He regained his composure.

"I'm going to the county seat tomorrow." After dinner, Lu Luo told him.

Shui Changning nodded, and as usual, didn't ask much.

Lu Luo had a hard time saying a few words, and explained to him: "Uncle Bai has a relative, who is his distant cousin, who is in the grain business, called Wei Yan.

Fifteen years ago, Master Wei met a traveling Middle-earth Warlock and said that he would arrange a magic circle for him to help him make a fortune, and Master Wei gave him a bottle of large jade Buddha as a reward.

At that time, Master Wei's father had just died, and the Jade Buddha belonged to his father, and he didn't know its value, so he gave it to the man and asked him to set up a magic circle.

Later, when I looked through his father's old manuscripts, I realized that the Jade Buddha was worth more than all his family business and belonged to the Han Dynasty. ”

She talked endlessly, Shui Changning's eyes were slightly condensed, and he looked at her quietly, as if to say that the eldest sister should not talk about it, hurry up and get things straight.

Lu Luo understood his eyes, and the topic was taken back: "Anyway, Master Wei listened to the words of that warlock and set up a magic circle in his ancestral tomb.

Since that formation, his business has been getting better and better, but he and his wife are in very poor health, he is in his forties this year, he has no son and half a daughter, and he has no energy to take concubines.

He suspected that it was a problem with the formation, and he had already lost the magic weapon, but his body was not better. He invited a few high-ranking people from other places, and the effect was slight.

Today he went to Mrs. Bai's house to pay New Year's greetings, and the old man mentioned me. When he heard that I was a witch from Middle-earth, he wanted to ask me to see it. When the deed is done, give three hundred taels of silver. ”

In the barren and backward southern Xinjiang, silver is more valuable!

Three hundred taels, enough for Lu Luo and Shui Changning's living needs for half a year, as well as the cost of going back.

It was impossible for Lu Luo to ask for three thousand taels again, which was beyond the range that Wei Yan could bear.

Southern Xinjiang is different from Huzhou, they don't have that much silver.

"Well, do you want me to send you?" Shui Changning asked.

Lu Luo originally planned to say no, but she didn't think about asking him to send it.

It's just that thinking that he will go to the street to set up a stall tomorrow and be watched as a monkey, Lu Luo couldn't bear it, and said: "That's great, you send me hard, and I'll come back to give you money for your feet." ”

Shui Changning teased her, as if she didn't understand, and went back to the room first with an expressionless face.

Before Lu Luo went to sleep, he still remembered Yan Xun, and his abandonment surprised Lu Luo, and he always felt that he still had a second move.

At the same time, she was also a little sad, and she thought about it all night.

In the early morning of the next day, Wei Yan arranged for a carriage to pick up Lu Luo.

Lu Luo took his own carriage: "My senior brother sent me, so convenient, I don't need you to send someone to send me when I come back, everyone saves effort." ”

Master Wei obeyed Lu Luo's words.

Shui Changning glanced at Master Wei and saw that he didn't have any financial luck in his life, and now that the business is so big, most of it is in exchange for health luck.

After looking, Lu Luo had already gotten into the carriage, and Shui Changning drove on the road.

From Liping Town to the county seat, ten miles of road, there are two sections of mountain roads, and the rest of the place is also muddy and potholes, not easy to walk, and only enter the city after noon.

The small county town is not big, and it takes about a quarter of an hour to enter the city, and you will arrive at Master Wei's house.

"Xuannu, let's have lunch first, and then go to the ancestral tomb to have a look, right?" Wei Yan asked Lu Luo.

At the beginning, the Taoist priest arranged the magic circle for Wei Yan, saying that it was better to lay it in the ancestral tomb and it was easier to succeed, so Wei Yan agreed.

He was also helpless later.

He thought about moving the ancestral tomb, but other Taoist priests advised him not to move the ancestral tomb easily, otherwise there would be a catastrophe.

Wei Yan really didn't dare to move.

"I'm tired." Lu Luo said, she was a little hungry.

After a bumpy ride, she needed more rest.

Lu Luo said that she and her senior brother both ate vegetarian food, and asked Wei Yan to prepare a few vegetarian dishes.

Wei Yan arranged it and said to the maid: "Go and tell your wife, and say that the Xuannu is here." ”

The maid said yes.

A moment later, Wei Yan's wife came out of the inner courtyard.

Mrs. Wei, like Wei Yan, was sick all the year round, pale and emaciated, with a cane in her hand, trembling, in her forties, looking like she was in her fifties or sixties.

When she saw Lu Luo, Mrs. Wei was shocked, and the cane in her hand clanged and fell to the ground.

"This," her lips trembled, and she pointed at Lu Luo.

The maid hurriedly picked up the crutches and stuffed them into her hands, her hands trembling uncontrollably.

"Immortal" Mrs. Wei's eyes welled up with tears, "How did I see a living immortal?" ”

After that, she was going to kneel down and worship Lu Luo.

Lu Luo stepped forward quickly, hugged her, and seeing that she was emotional, Lu Luo gave Wei Yan a color.

Wei Yan personally supported his wife and went back to the inner courtyard.

After the meal was prepared, Lu Luo and Shui Changning used it, led by Wei Yan, to the ancestral tomb of the Wei family to see the situation.

Out of Wei's house, passing by the street, suddenly the carriage stopped suddenly.

Lu Luo, Shui Changning and Wei Yan rode together, she and Shui Changning sat on one side, the carriage stopped in a hurry, everyone was defenseless, Lu Luo's whole person fell backwards, all pressing on Shui Changning.

Shui Changning's human cushion is not bad, at least Lu Luo didn't hit the wall of the car.

Wei Yan was more miserable, slamming into the wall of the car, with a crisp sound, and his head buzzed.

"What's going on?" Lu Luo got up first and lifted the curtain, but saw two benches in the middle of the road, and several young people were sitting, triumphant.

One of them was born fair-skinned and handsome, dressed in a royal blue straight jacket and a golden crown, and was very rich.

Lu Luo stretched out his head first, startling the pedestrian who was blocking the road, and two of them stood up in fright.

The handsome boy was also slightly surprised.

Wei Yan immediately got out of the carriage.

"What are you doing stopping the car, what about your father?" Wei Yan knew this young man. He hit it a little harder, and he got a bag on his head. He's not in good health, and he's dizzy right now.

The handsome boy is called Xia Yan, and the others are his little maids and fox friends.

Xia Yan is the son of Xia Mingting and the young owner of the Xia family's grain store.

In the entire county, the Xia family and the Wei family did the best in the grain business, and their peers were enemies, and there were many fights when collecting grain.

Xia Yan was drinking tea in the teahouse, and saw Wei Yan's carriage from a distance.

Thinking of the conflict between the Wei family's grain shop and the Xia family not long ago, Xia Yan's father was half angry, and Xia Yan was indignant.

He was a small child, and he took his subordinates and friends to teach Wei Yan a lesson, and he didn't believe that Wei Yan dared to sue the official.

was beaten by a child, no matter how wronged he was, he could only eat coptis dumbly!

Unexpectedly, there was a woman in Wei Yan's car, and it was a foreign-looking woman.

"Okay, Wei Dongjia, Yanfu is not shallow, you got such a charming stunner from the west?" Xia Yan spoke lightly, "You are old and bonely, are you okay?" If not, sell it to me, and I'll pay three times as much silver." ”——
