Chapter 8 I don't want you to suffer a little grievance
Just after dinner, the card game of the Lu Mansion opened early, and the little guys have long been accustomed to counting the seats and lining the table, but the leading steward repeatedly counted the number of people, frowned, and lowered his head to the eldest wife of the Lu family:
"Madam, is the stage open or not?"
The eldest lady didn't answer, and the second aunt next to her quickly clicked one by one, and said in surprise:
"It's strange that the Lin family's 'flower magpie' is actually absent! It's really the sun hitting the west and coming out! ”
As soon as these words came out, the woman at the end of the living room sneered: "My son has such a big thing, if she comes, it will be really big!" ”
Women have always gossiped and gossiped. The woman who provoked the conversation cautiously looked at Mrs. Lu's face, and saw that she did not mean to stop the topic, so she opened the conversation:
"I heard that her precious son is related to the arson case in the Funan warehouse last night, and he is in the same party!"
Now the pot exploded in the living room.
"Can't! Mother and son were here last night playing cards with us. ”
"That's right, how long have we been gone!"
"Yikes! Maybe! You said that their house has no warehouse there, and what are they doing running there without sleep in the middle of the night! ”
"It's true! The workers of our family there saw it with their own eyes! Even the people and cars have been detained! ”
Mrs. Lu just listened, turned her head to the steward, and said:
"Go and call the second lady down."
Usually such weekends, Lu Canghan spends time in the study, but this afternoon, he happened to finish reading the books, and planned to go to the bookstore to buy two new ones, standing on the stairs and hearing the discussion in the living room, he was going to listen to more news, but the steward went upstairs and shouted the young master, the women in the living room immediately quieted down, Lu Canghan couldn't, so he had to pretend that he didn't hear anything, and walked downstairs as if nothing happened, and went out of the house, Mrs. Lu saw that he seemed to be going out, and hurriedly followed him to the bottom of the porch:
"Canghan, it's rare to rest, where is this going?"
Lu Canghan turned around and saw his mother worried, knowing that he couldn't hide it from her, but he still lied:
"Go to the bookstore and buy some new books."
Mrs. Lu hesitated for a moment, then asked:
"Did you hear what they said just now?"
Lu Canghan did not deny it, and counted it as a reply.
"Leave this matter alone. If you don't know, the young lady won't blame you. But if you offend the Ye family because of this, if the second miss of the Ye family gains power in the future, I am afraid that you will suffer......"
"I know." Lu Canghan sighed lightly, "I know in my heart who Luo Luo wants to deal with, so I can't sit idly by." You know my lifelong friendship with Yun Rou. ”
"But now it's Yun Shuai's ambiguous attitude, which is ......"
"Don't worry about that." Lu Canghan interrupted her, "What to say and do, my son knows what to do." ”
The black car galloped all the way out of the courtyard of the Lu family, Lu Canghan sat in the car, secretly praying that Lin Wanjing didn't know about it, but it backfired, there was still an intersection from the City Defense Department, and a familiar white sedan appeared in front of him.
"Young master, the car in front of you that seems to be the ...... of the Imperial Kuntai"
"I saw it. Catch up! ”
If Lin Wanjing can be stopped here, it will be a blessing in misfortune.
Although she took the matter of mentioning people hard, Lin Wanjing didn't have any idea in her heart about how to say and do it.
Ye Qiuluo should have ridiculed her by citing scriptures about this, right?
Or will they send her all kinds of things under the pretext of doing all kinds of registrations?
No, maybe she won't see herself at all!
Compared with this kind of situation, Lin Wanjing can't say which situation is better.
In the rearview mirror, Ah Biao saw Lin Wanjing frowning sometimes and sighing, knowing that she had something in her heart, so she reduced her speed and walked slowly along the street.
In the rear, Lu Canghan's black car approached quickly, and soon it was on par with Lin Wanjing's white car, the black car honked a few times, Ah Biao only thought that he was telling him to give way, so he leaned in again, and the black car didn't seem to plan to overtake, but on the left side of the white car, honking repeatedly.
The driver of the Lu family didn't care when he saw the white car, and asked Lu Canghan for instructions:
"Young master, they don't seem to understand what we mean."
Lu Canghan lifted the curtain and took a look, but saw that the curtain on the back seat of the white car was also placed, presumably Lin Wanjing was sitting in the car and did not notice the surrounding situation.
The street corner is approaching, and the direction of the City Defense Department is to turn left at the street corner ahead, and the driver asks again:
"Young Master, what should I do now?"
Lu Canghan gritted his teeth and said, "Go over, turn right to stop them." ”
Watching the black car accelerate forward, Ah Biao only said that he was too worried, and he should just be a fellow traveler, but the next moment, the black car turned sharply to the right and stopped steadily not far away. Ah Chao braked in a hurry, and in the sharp sound of braking, the white sedan finally stopped outside the black car, and finally did not hit head-on.
When the car stopped, Ah Biao shook the car door and shouted at the black car:
"How do you drive..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw the back door of the black car slowly open, and Ah Biao looked at the man in the gray vest in front of him for a moment, and suddenly recognized him:
"Admiral Land?!" While recognizing him, he became more and more confused, "Admiral Land... What does this mean? ”
Lu Canghan didn't answer him, just asked:
"Can your young lady be in the car?"
"Yes, yes." Ah Biao nodded, turned around to help Lin Wanjing pull the car door, and helped her get out of the car.
Seeing her hand caressing her chest, Lu Canghan couldn't help but feel pity, regretting his decision to stop the car recklessly just now, and said with concern:
"But it hurt you?"
"There is no injury, but the shock is not small." Lin Wanjing shook her head and smiled slightly, "General Lu has something to do with me?" ”
"I've heard about your family, but this city defense department, you can't go to Wanjing." Seeing Lin Wanjing's face full of doubts, Lu Canghan explained, "The young marshal specially explained before leaving, if he is not there, someone will definitely take the opportunity to make trouble, which is not good for you, so I want to pay close attention." I just didn't expect things to come so quickly. I will settle this matter for you, I will mention it for you, you wait for me here, don't go any further. ”
Further on, it was in the sight of the City Defense Department.
"How can I bother General Lu for such a trivial matter of my own family......" Lin Wanjing said apologetically, "I can endure how she will treat me." ”
"But the young marshal is reluctant to let you suffer a little grievance, since he told me that I want to take care of you, I can't live up to his trust no matter what. Moreover...... I don't want you to be too wronged by yourself, even if someone is destined to be soft, I also hope that person is not you. Lu Canghan said, "Don't worry, as far as our childhood sweetheart relationship, I know her personality very well, I will ask for someone for you, and the chances of winning are greater." You're here waiting for my good news. ”
After saying this, Lu Canghan couldn't help but sit in the car, closed the door, and rolled down the window to explain again:
"Don't let anyone see you're going to the City Defense Department, you know?"
Lin Wanjing nodded, thanked her, and watched the black sedan correct and disappear on the corner.
Lu Canghan's words were like a warm current in her heart - he said that Liu Jin had specially explained before leaving, that is, he cared about her in his heart!
But why should she know about it? Now that she knows, she only becomes more and more confused, and she doesn't know how to choose.
Ye Qiuluo was looking through the interrogation transcript in the office, and when he saw Lu Canghan brought in by the clerk, he got up to greet him:
"On a rare weekend, how did Young Master Lu think of coming to me to have a look?"
"I heard that you solved a big case yesterday, so I'm here to say hello."
Ye Qiuluo was proud when he heard this, but he still said:
"Young Master Lu is really well-informed. Nothing to do, say, what do you want me to do? ”
"What can I do, I'm really happy."
Lu Canghan said, taking out a brocade box wrapped in pink velvet, Ye Qiuluo took it and opened it, only to see a white gold diamond watch on the black velvet.
"Last time you said you liked it, Yun Rou ordered one from the Russians, and specially told me to send it to you when I arrived."
The white gold dial is surrounded by a circle of star diamonds, each one is brilliant, the 12 scales on the dial are also diamond inlays, the most delicate is the blood diamond in the middle of the dial, the red dazzling and clear, like a gorgeous little sun, the hands beat a grid, the circle of diamonds around the dial will follow the slight rotation, facing the sun, like a river of stars.
Ye Qiuluo couldn't help herself for a while, her fingertips couldn't help rubbing slightly, and suddenly touched a notch, she turned the watch over in confusion, but saw a line of small characters engraved on the watch cover, which was vaguely recognized as the appearance of Russian letters.
"Canghan, there are words engraved on the cover of the table, like Russian." Ye Qiuluo stared at the line of words, puzzled, "Didn't you learn Russian, come and help me take a look." ”
As soon as Lu Canghan heard the words on the cover of the watch, he hurriedly came up, and when he saw the words clearly, his temples suddenly jumped, and he was stunned for a long time before saying:
"Where can I read such small words, besides, I don't remember how long I've been learning Russian!"
"Even you can't see clearly......" Ye Qiuluo was suspicious.
"Hey, what are you carving, wait for Yun Rou to come back, you can ask him in person! Why bother to bother here! ”
It just so happened that the two non-commissioned officers escorted a prisoner in and asked Ye Qiuluo how to deal with it, and Lu Canghan saw that the non-commissioned officers were holding the person they were looking for - Lin Wanjun.
Just push the boat along the river, saving the trouble of going around the bend.
"Isn't this the little young master of the Lin family, what kind of big deal is this, and you have to be invited to tea by your city defense department?" Although I already knew it, the play still had to be done.
"This kid may be patient, don't look at his young age, he is an accomplice to the one who set fire to the port last night!" Ye Qiuluo sneered, "I said that none of their Lin family is a fuel-efficient lamp!" ”
When Lu Canghan heard this, he laughed: "Impossible, it must be a mistake!" This kid played cards with his mother at my house last night, lost thousands of dollars, and dispersed in the middle of the night, long past the time of arson, how can he be an accomplice! ”
"He can admit it!" Ye Qiuluo handed the confession to Lu Canghan, "I don't believe you can see it yourself." ”
Lu Canghan flipped through the interrogation transcript, although Lin Wanjun did confess to the interrogator's question, but fortunately, his answers were all in a negative tone of "yes and what" and "so what", and there was still room for sophistry.
"The little young blood Fang is just ignorant, and he was caught and beaten by you for some reason, and he was not convinced, and he wanted to rely on her sister's support to answer nonsense." Lu Canghan pretended to be relaxed and laughed, "This kid did play cards at my house last night, and many ladies and wives can testify." His mother's mouth is very powerful, if she adds fuel and vinegar to link this matter to your marriage with Yunrou, saying that you are targeting their Lin family, I am afraid that your reputation will be ruined! ”
"Let her speak! I'm targeting the Lin family, what's wrong with her Lin Wanjing?! With the transcript of the inquiry in hand, I'm still afraid that she won't succeed! ”
Seeing that Ye Qiuluo seemed to be in a hurry, Lu Canghan changed his words:
"Don't mind, be generous. If you want me to say, Lin Wanjing is already precarious, how long can her Lin family be proud? Why are you bothering for this moment and a half? In case Yun Rou hears some rumors and mistakenly thinks that you are indeed stingy and has a grudge against you, you will lose more than you gain......"
Ye Qiuluo seemed to hear this, thought for a moment, and asked:
"That's... What if it were you? ”
"Let him go."
"What?!"
"Don't get excited, listen to me......" Lu Canghan smiled slyly, "Let him go, and then secretly send someone to keep an eye on him." Just sell face to Yun Rou, and you can use this matter to spoil Lin Wanjing's prestige in the future. Besides, aren't you worried that he has a lot to do with the rebels? After putting the line long, I caught a big fish. ”
Lu Canghan didn't know if these words could move her, so he had to pay attention to Ye Qiuluo's expression while talking, but he saw that the smile on her face was getting deeper and deeper, and most of his hanging heart was let go.
"Cunning and cunning." Ye Qiuluo smiled and scratched the tip of Lu Canghan's nose, "But this inquiry record ......"
"Now that you have the final say in this city defense department, Miss Ye, the transcript or something...... Is there a matter of your Miss Ye's words? ”
Ye Qiuluo pondered this sentence, flipped through the documents in his hand again, and finally said: "Okay, since you and Aunt Lu are witnesses, then I believe you, and you can take them away." She happily tore the document in half, threw it into the water tank next to the table, and added: "But the bail money can't be missing!" ”
"Don't worry. I'll tell the fuck. Tomorrow we will deliver all of them. ”
"What if she doesn't?"
"Don't pay? ......" Lu Canghan thought for a while, "If you don't pay it, it will be recorded in Yunrou's account." ”
