Chapter 40: A Letter Conveys Danger 2
As soon as Master Lu finished speaking, he turned around and didn't see Lu You. It turned out that Lu You couldn't wait to listen to Master Lu's chatter, and tried his best to find the roster, so he left without looking back, leaving only a sentence in a hurry, "Dad, don't worry, I'll take it right away." ”
Lu Youzi walked in a hurry, and rushed out like a gust of wind, Tang Wan looked at his figure, and thought, seeing that he was unhurried, he didn't expect to be so neat at the critical moment, but he had left me alone several times after only three days of marriage. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh lightly, and I naturally sighed in this tone, I don't know how many times I will have to be "alone" like this next.
Seeing that the situation had taken a turn for the better, Master Lu suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and sat down nearby with light steps. A full cup of tea on the coffee table was no longer hot, and the lid of the cup fell aside. Seeing this situation, Tang Wan probably guessed that Master Lu probably wanted to read the letter while drinking tea just now, but the moment he opened the letter, he was stunned, so that the cup of tea was put aside. The moment Master Lu picked up the cup, he realized that Tang Wan was still in front of him, so he waved his hand to signal her to sit down.
Master Lu almost swallowed half a cup of tea in one gulp, as if he wanted to use the tea poured into his stomach to suppress the shock in his heart just now. After taking a sip of tea, he turned to look at Tang Wan, and said with an approving face, "I have always heard that Brother Tang's daughter is very talented, and today, it seems that it is really unusual." It's really an eye-opener for you to solve this big problem like this. ”
Although Tang Wan is a woman, she also knows that if the Lu family is really detained in the name of forming a party for personal gain this time, it will be a big crime, and if you don't get it right, it will be a disaster, so she naturally doesn't dare to slack off in this matter, and pious to find a solution. ”
Master Lu nodded and praised, "Well, you're right, I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful at a young age, it's really rare." With someone like you by my side, I have a hundred hearts. ”
Tang Wan was happy to hear it in his heart, but he still replied modestly, "You have won the prize." ”
Master Lu asked again, "How is it, can you get used to living in the house recently?" ”
Tang Wan replied respectfully, "Everything is good." ”
Master Lu said, "That's good." You have just married into the Lu family, and it is inevitable that you will miss your parents, and I will explain the situation and let him accompany you to the Tang Mansion as soon as he has time. I don't know, how is Brother Tang and sister-in-law Tang doing recently? ”
Tang Wan said, "I just went back to the Tang Mansion with Wuguan today. Daddy and Mom are very healthy. ”
Only then did Master Lu remember that today was the day when Lu You and Tang Wan returned to the door, and it seemed that he really ******** used it for collecting books. Master Lu said ashamedly, "Yes, yes, yes, you see my memory, I am old and useless." It's not as good as you juniors. By the way, Hui Xian, as you just said, a new early list, I want to hear you talk about it, on this new list, who can and who can't? ”
For such an important thing as creating a new list, Master Lu actually came to ask Tang Wan's opinion, Tang Wan felt very honored in his heart, but then he thought that this matter needed to be extremely cautious, but he couldn't be taken lightly, so he returned to the road, "Dad, I can't say this, most of the guests that day are not familiar with each other, and I really don't know what to do."
Master Lu nodded and said, "Indeed." ”
Tang Wan saw that Master Lu treated him very kindly, so he asked, "Dad, I still have something I want to ask you, I don't know if I can say it?" ”
Master Lu looked at her and said, "If you have any questions, just ask directly, we are all a family, and there is nothing that can't be done." ”
Speaking of which, Tang Wan has always been very puzzled in his heart, although Wan Qiyun is said to be an evil master, but if he doesn't provoke him, he won't get into such a big trouble lightly, the Lu family is all self-denying and courteous, how can they get involved with this big trouble? At this time, with Master Lu's consent, Tang Wan blurted out and asked, "What is the festival between Wan Qiyun and the Lu family?" Do you want to put us to death? ”
Tang Wan probably didn't know, this question just asked Master Lu's pain. Master Lu stood up, put his hands behind his back, took a few steps forward, raised his head, and his eyes stayed on the four big characters of "loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness".
Tang Wan immediately sensed his own mistake from Master Lu's silence, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Dad, this ...... If it's not a good question, just leave it at that, you ......."
Master Lu waved his hand and said, "There is no inconvenience to say, this matter is not only the misfortune of the family, but also the misfortune of the country. Recovering the Central Plains, what year and month? ”
Master Lu's impassioned words made Tang Wan more and more confused, how could it be the misfortune of the family and the country, what kind of grudge do Wan Qiyun and the Lu family have?
Master Lu's words became more and more biased, talking about family and country affairs by himself, completely ignoring Tang Wan's initial question. Tang Wan pretended to listen carefully, and at the same time thought in his heart, did he not want to say it clearly, so he answered himself in such a detour?
At this time, Lu You's hurried "Dad" interrupted Master Lu's chatter. Tang Wan looked at Lu You who walked in, and a little uneasiness rose in his heart, and his body stood up unconsciously.
Lu You looked at the two people in the room and said, "The roster is gone." ”
Before Lu You said this, everyone always pinned their hopes on the roster. Whether or not the matter of Wan Qiyun can be solved has a lot to do with whether there is this roster or not. Master Lu and Tang Wan have always felt that such an important roster, the reason why Lu You has been out for so long and has not come back must be that the roster is properly kept in an important corner of the house, and they have not found it for a while. But they didn't expect that the news that Lu You brought them was that the roster was missing, which was like a thunderbolt from the blue.
Master Lu asked with an incredulous expression, "What do you mean it's gone?" ”
Lu You replied, "I searched the entire warehouse, and I found everything related to the wedding day, but the roster was missing." ”
Master Lu said, "What about the housekeeper?" What about him? ”
Lu You replied, "The housekeeper went with me, but I still can't find it." ”
No matter how well cultivated a person is, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear this kind of thing, and Master Lu is like this, and the anger in his chest can no longer be contained. I only heard him say sharply, "How can there be such a thing, call him over to me, everything is lost, how is he a housekeeper!" ”
Lu You hurriedly persuaded, "Dad, this matter is very strange, I'm afraid it's not the housekeeper's fault." I think it was Wan Qiyun who took this roster that day, otherwise how could he remember the names of everyone that day. ”
I was really afraid that anything would happen, what Master Lu was most worried about was that this roster was in Wan Qiyun's hands, but I saw him pounding it on the table with one hand, and sighed violently, "What kind of heavenly way is this, why can you let the villain get the way?" What is the reason of heaven! What is the reason of heaven! What is the reason of heaven! ”
