Chapter 170: Zheng Family Barracks
Xiao Zao was a little anxious in the place not far from the thatched house, thinking about how Mr. Lu had been gone for so long, could it be that he was eating bad things and making her stomach, she looked in the direction of the thatched house with some worry, and after a while, she finally saw Mr. Lu's figure coming slowly. She immediately stepped forward quickly, and asked with some concern, "Sir, are you okay, why have you been gone for so long?" The slave thinks you're not feeling well. ”
Lu Wanwan immediately said apologetically: "I have made you wait for a long time, I am indeed a little uncomfortable, but now it is fine, let's go back quickly, don't let General Sun wait." ”
Xiao Zao nodded, and then took Lu Wanwan back, and Lu Wanwan asked her while walking: "Xiao Zao, has the third lady in your mansion been unwell recently?" ”
Xiao Zao glanced back at Lu Wanwan suspiciously, not knowing why she suddenly asked this, but she still replied truthfully: "Sir, how do you know, the third lady has recently had a cold and has been recuperating in bed." ”
Lu Wanwan's face flashed with a hint of understanding, nodded, and replied: "When I entered the mansion, I happened to hear a few maids talking about this matter, so I found out. ”
Xiao Zao nodded ignorantly, thinking that Lu Wanwan asked casually on a whim, so he didn't say anything more. The two soon returned to the living room, Sun Jianying was obviously a little impatient, as soon as Lu Wanwan sat down, he was about to serve tea to the guests, but Lu Wanwan was one step ahead of him and said: "General, Lu Moufang didn't say that my general was sick, and he has been recuperating in bed for the past few days." You may not know that Lu has some attainments in the art of orpiment, and I have always been treating the general's illness. ”
Sun Jianying was obviously very curious why Lu Wanwan suddenly said this, his expression became more and more impatient, and he said a little perfunctorily: "I see, Mr. is really talented." ”
Lu Wanwan smiled slightly, and continued: "I just found something very interesting when I was in the thatched house, if I didn't know a little about medical skills, I'm afraid I wouldn't have found ......."
Sun Jianying is not stupid, he knows that Lu Wanwan will definitely not say this for no reason. Suddenly, his brows furrowed even tighter. He asked with a slight uneasiness in his tone, "Sir...... What was found? ”
"I found some dregs." Lu Wanwan squinted slightly, looked at Sun Jianying with a smile, and did not make his words clear.
Sun Jianying's face changed suddenly, and after a while. Still stubbornly said, "What is Mr. Lu talking about?" I don't understand. ”
Lu Wanwan only smiled and said nothing. Gently rubbing the teacup in his hand with both hands, admiring Sun Jianying's darkening face, finally Sun Jianying couldn't help it. The voice was a little hurried: "If you dare to leak this matter, not only you, but also your Zheng Mansion and I will not let it go." ”
Lu Wanwan immediately stood up in fear, bent down and bowed: "Lu naturally doesn't dare, but this paper can't hold the fire, and there is no impermeable wall in the world, I mean if, if there is a little bit of rumor outside, the third lady's life will be ruined......" "You dare to threaten me!" Sun Jianying slapped the table with his palm and asked angrily. Naturally, I don't dare, I'm just reminding General Sun, this kind of thing can't be a little miss......" Lu Wanwan raised his head, looked at Sun Jianying with a smile on the corner of his lips and said, the meaning of his words was very intriguing.
Sun Jianying's face changed a few times, and a pair of copper bell-like eyes stared at Lu Wanwan, and after a while, he asked, "What do you want?" ”
"Isn't the general very clear in his heart about what Lu wants?" Lu Wanwan stood up straight, still smiling and replied.
Sun Jianying was silent for a while, then with a dark face, he said, "You go back first, I will consider what you said today." ”
Hearing Sun Jianying's relief, the smile on Lu Wanwan's face suddenly became even bigger, and he nodded and said, "Okay, general, you should think about it first, but don't think about it for too long, my general's patience has never been very good." ”
Sun Jianying wanted to get angry, but he swallowed this breath and commanded the maid outside the door: "Come on, send off guests!" ”
Lu Wanwan didn't care about Sun Jianying's black face, he saluted him very respectfully, and said: "General, presumably the third lady's body should be very weak now, Lu has a few recipes for warming the body, if the general agrees to my conditions, I will definitely give these prescriptions to both hands to ensure that the young lady's body is healthier than before." With that, he followed the maid out of the living room.
Sun Jianying looked at the back of Lu Wanwan leaving, and his anger was mixed with a very complicated feeling.
Lu Wanwan sat in the carriage back, her mood was still very comfortable, she felt that her luck today was really good, she could find such a thing that turned the situation around when she went to the thatched house, it seemed that even God was helping her.
In fact, the medicinal residue that Lu Wanwan found in the thatched house was just a very ordinary medicinal material - safflower, which had a special aroma and a slightly bitter taste. It has the effect of invigorating blood and passing through menstruation, dispersing stasis and relieving pain, and is often used for amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, lochia, scabies, bruises, sores and ulcers. But Lu Wanwan carefully examined the dregs, and with her medical skills, it was easy to see what the medicine was for, and the dregs were handled so secretly, it was obvious that there was an ulterior secret.
Sun Jianying has a son and two daughters, the eldest daughter has already been married, the eldest son is twenty-eight years old, and he has already married a wife, but he has been married to his wife for eight years and only gave birth to a son. It's just that I don't know how she could be so careless, she actually secretly married someone and caused such a disaster for his father, but it was a blessing for her, she had this handle in her hands, and she was not afraid that Sun Jianying would not comply, even if Sun Jianying would rather not have her daughter's reputation than agree to the alliance with the Zheng family, then she could also use this matter to make the Sun family and the Qin Wangfu unable to form this family business.
Lu Wanwan's carriage did not go back to Zheng's mansion directly, but went to the Zheng family's barracks in the suburbs, this was her first time here, and she was inevitably a little apprehensive in her heart.
Lu Wanwan's carriage arrived at the gate of the barracks, and the soldier who was guarding outside the barracks immediately came forward to ask: "Who is coming, the front is the Zheng family barracks, get off quickly!" ”
Lu Wanwan jumped off the carriage at this time, glanced at the few soldiers next to the carriage, and then took out Zheng Houzhong's warrant and said: "I came to inspect on the order of the general, and I didn't take me in quickly." ”
When those soldiers saw Zheng Houzhong's warrant, they immediately saluted and made a gesture of invitation to Lu Wanwan very respectfully, and Lu Wanwan followed them into the barracks.
The military camp is a place where Lu Wanwan is no stranger, in her last life, she spent several years here, at that time she really hated this place, those soldiers looked at her with obscene and obscene, so until now, she has a faint disgust for the soldiers, but she forced herself to forget those dark pasts, and looked at the soldiers who were practicing on the playground very seriously, Lu Wanwan looked at it for a while, and had to sigh, although this Zheng family army looked very brave, but compared to the regular army of the imperial dynasty, it was still far behind, and the number of Zheng Jiajun is only more than 20,000, and in the army of 100,000 and hundreds of thousands, it is really not even a dish.
"Sir, the general's tent is in front, and the two lieutenants are there now." A soldier who followed Lu Wanwan said to her.
Lu Wanwan nodded, then raised his feet and walked towards the camp tent not far away.
When Lu Wanwan walked into the tent, he saw two men standing in front of the big case, and when he heard the movement, he turned around and looked over, these two men were in their thirties, the one standing on the left had a square face with thick eyebrows, and a messy beard on his chin, and he knew by his appearance that he was a person with a bold personality, while the one on the right was much more gentle, with small eyes, slender eyebrows, if it weren't for his dark skin, someone would believe him if he was a scholar.
Lu Wanwan quietly observed the two of them for a while, before he stepped forward with a smile, hugged his fists and said: "I want to compare the two of them are Vice General Qian and Vice General Wang, look up for a long time!" ”
"You're that Mr. Lu?" The bearded man was the first to ask, looking a little unkind.
"I am, you should be Vice General Qian, it's as brave as rumored." Lu Wanwan said to him with a smile on her face, and she looked very respectful.
Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, the bearded man was flattered by Lu Wanwan, and it was not good to show her face again, and coughed and said: "My name is Qian Wuzhi, just call my name directly." ”
"Then Lu will be big, can I call you Brother Qian?" Lu Wanwan continued to pretend to be almost the way.
Qian Wuzhi didn't speak, but subconsciously looked at the scholar next to him, the scholar's small eyes narrowed, and then he slowly spoke: "The two of us have also admired Mr. Lu's name for a long time, and I know that Mr. Lu not only cured the general's stubborn disease, but also won the general's appreciation, which really makes the two of us admire." ”
"Vice General Wang is really polite, Lu is just lucky, lucky, how can it be compared to the two, it is a real knife and a real gun with real skills, that is really powerful." Lu Wanwan had already seen that this deputy general Wang was the real master in the barracks, and if he wanted to deal with these soldiers, he had to deal with him first, so he said very modestly.
