Chapter 623: Just Raise a Dancing Girl
Li Mingjue knew his father's temper, but he was a hundred unwilling in his heart, although the woman looked okay......
He lost his temper with Mrs. Li angrily, and asked for a silver ticket from her before he stopped, since his mother said so, he should raise a dancing girl in the house, anyway, she can't control him.
In fact, Li Mingjue is mainly afraid of his father, I remember that once he skipped school for half a month and did not go to school, and was rolled on the ground by Master Li with wicker, and did not get out of bed for three days, and then found a husband to teach at home, and only went out for half a year.
He shuddered when he thought of this, although his father was old, it was more than enough to beat him, but today he took the silver ticket, and he had to go out and relax.
He said proudly to the little girl: "If you have money today, I will take you to drink flower wine, and then choose a girl for you, so that you can also open meat!" ”
Xiao Wule's mouth couldn't be closed, so he hurriedly put the cloak on him, and was happily behind Li Mingjue.
Early the next morning, Master Li sent someone to send a letter to Lu Mingjue, and after Lu Mingjue read the letter, Le's mouth couldn't close.
He walked to the door of Lu Yanran's room and knocked on the door, but it was not Lianxin who came to open the door, but a little girl who accompanied him.
"Where's Lotus Heart?" Lu Mingjue asked.
The little girl said timidly: "Lianxin said that she had an urgent matter at home, so she left overnight, and replaced me to serve Miss." ”
Lu Mingjue didn't care about these things, waved her hand to make her retreat, and then walked into the house, and saw that Lu Yanran had already gotten up, sitting by the window and looking out, and didn't speak when she saw him come in.
"Yanran, my father has set a family affair for you, it is the famous Li family in Jinling City, I will discuss the matter of marriage with the master of the Li family, you don't have to worry about it."
Lu Yanran hasn't slept since she returned to the room last night, and has been sitting by the window in a daze, but she didn't expect her father to come early in the morning to bring such a thunderbolt news to herself.
She looked at Lu Mingjue in astonishment, and said in disbelief: "Dad, are you joking with me?" ”
"You girl, are you joking about such a thing, this morning the Li family loosened a lot of medicine to treat injuries, and let you wipe the clothes of the next person for a while, it's better faster, don't worry about affecting the marriage."
He looked like a loving father, concerned about the wounds on her face, but the words he said were like knives into her throat, and she fell to the ground in a moment of anxiety.
Lu Mingjue hurriedly went over and helped her to the chair: "Is there something uncomfortable, do you want to call Lang Zhong?" ”
Lu Yanran shook off his hand and said angrily: "Do you treat me as your daughter, you just treat me as a chess piece!" If you force me to marry, I'll die for you!" ”
Lu Mingjue listened to her words, slapped her in the face, and scolded sharply: "I'll let you say such bastard words again, do you know, this is for the good of the Lu family, if you do this, your mother's face can still have some light, if these things spread to Jiangnan, you will shame the entire family!" ”
Lu Yanran didn't believe that things would be serious like this, it was just that he saw that the Li family had a big business and deliberately stammered!
Lu Mingyan saw that she was still unconvinced, and said fiercely: "If you are looking for death and life, what you marry into the Li family will be a corpse, and you can do it yourself!" ”
She felt that her eyes were dark, and countless images flashed in her mind, but she couldn't think effectively, she clenched her fists tightly, and her long nails were embedded in the flesh.
"Someone!" Lu Mingjue said loudly.
The little girl pushed the door in, and was already frightened when she saw the scene in front of her, so she would just stand in a daze.
"In the future, you will look at Miss, you can't let her have a little problem, or something happens, I cut off your brain to feed the dog, do you understand!"
The little girl shuddered, and hurriedly agreed, Lu Mingjue left after speaking, Lu Yanran lay on the bed in despair and cried.
She never thought that she would end up like this one day, is a woman's fate just to be manipulated by others?
She is very unwilling, you must know that when she Lu Yanran was in Jiangnan before, she was not afraid of heaven and earth, even if she was used by her own father, she could not be appointed!
She also made an appointment with Song Xinshu to meet today, she can't just lie here and cry.
Lu Yanran wiped her tears, looked at the little girl standing aside, with a green face, she was originally asked to come to help Lianxin, but she didn't expect that she didn't even have a personal maid now.
"I'm hungry, go get me something to eat." Lu Yanran said in a nasal voice.
"Yes, whoever is a slave or a maid will do it." She withdrew and ran to the kitchen of the inn, this master was really uncertain, but she finally had something to do, and she didn't have to watch her cry in the house.
At this time, Song Xinshu was busy in the Taste Pavilion, he didn't open the door yesterday, and several people had knocked on the door to complain if he didn't open the door.
Su Xueqing looked at Song Xinshu's busy appearance, thinking to herself how she could be so calm, obviously Lu Yanran said that she was coming yesterday, but she was still busy with the business in the store as if nothing had happened.
Song Xinshu felt that there was a pair of eyes always chasing her, and when she looked back, it was Su Xueqing, so she also stopped what she was doing and looked at her.
"Xin Shu, what if Lu Yanran really comes to you today?"
"Come then."
Seeing her indifferent appearance, Su Xueqing felt very anxious, that was Lu Mingyan's daughter, who knew what kind of tricks there were. Since the business of the Taste Pavilion is getting better and better, the people who come to find trouble have never heard of it, and it is really popular.
In fact, Song Xinshu has been thinking about this matter in his heart, but he doesn't want to reveal it, so as not to make Xue Qing and Su Tong anxious.
Maybe Lu Yanran and her father are not all the way, but this possibility is very small, and she doesn't dare to take this risk, so she can only wait for her to come before making plans, and she still has to see how much silver she can get first.
As far as the Lu family's affairs are concerned, Song Xinshu is more worried about the front-line grain and grass, that matter has not been done yet, and she has to deal with it as soon as possible.
I don't know how he's doing now......
When she thought of Su Qing, her heart felt as uncomfortable as a knife, and she really wanted to see him.
"Eh, Boss Zhou is here, how many snacks do you want today?"
Song Xinshu was pulled back to reality by Su Xueqing's voice, and when he saw their regular customer Boss Zhou coming, he nodded to him with a smile.
"The shopkeeper Song is also here today, or bring me a hundred snacks, there are many women in this house, and they are shouting to eat the dim sum of the Taste Pavilion every day, do you dare to disobey?"
Xue Qing laughed out loud and asked the guy to help Boss Zhou pack, recently several customers have been buying in a bunch, the back kitchen can't be supplied, and the small kitchen is in full swing every day.
After sending Boss Zhou away, Song Xinshu took out the booklet recorded in the store and looked at it, and every day she would record the sales of each dim sum, so as to make improvements to the dim sum that was not selling well.
Su Xueqing suddenly lost her eyes, rubbed it vigorously and looked into the distance, and suddenly saw Lu Yanran's figure, she rubbed her eyes again, and Lu Yanran actually disappeared again.
Could it be that your eyes are spent?
Su Xueqing blinked vigorously, found that there was no familiar figure on the street, and muttered, "It's really ghostly!" ”
Song Xinshu heard her muttering and asked suspiciously, "Who do you say is ghostly?" ”
"I seemed to see Lu Yanran just now, but I disappeared in an instant......"
"She probably won't come." Song Xinshu said while looking at the booklet in his hand: "Lu Mingyan didn't make any moves today, I'm afraid she has changed her strategy, and Lu Yanran is probably part of her plan." ”
Su Xueqing nodded thoughtfully, she didn't like that Lu Yanran, she always looked arrogant and domineering, and always emphasized that she was the daughter of the Lu family, the richest man in Jiangnan, but this was in Jinling City.
It's just that what Su Xueqing didn't know was that the figure she saw on the road was really Lu Yanran, and she jumped out of the window after she opened the little girl's head.
Unexpectedly, she hurt her ankle when she jumped down, she clenched her teeth in pain, and hung down on her thigh fiercely, only to feel that the pain was within her acceptable range.
She couldn't care about anything else, so she got up and ran towards the street, she was not familiar with the road in Jinling City, she only remembered a road to the Taste Pavilion.
She didn't dare to turn back along the way, for fear of being discovered and caught, but when she saw the signboard of the Taste Pavilion from a distance, a man suddenly rushed in front of her.
She recognized that the person was the thug next to Lu Mingyan, took a step back in fright, and subconsciously wanted to turn around and run away, but the man grabbed her wrist, and she pulled it aside.
"You let go of me, what kind of person are you, you dare to hold me like this!" Lu Yanran used all her strength to break free, but the man's strength was not something she could break free, only the part of being dragged away.
"Miss, I am under the orders of the master, you better go back with me." Although the man's tone was negotiable, the movements of his hands involuntarily pulled her back.
The little maid also caught up breathlessly at this time, and after she went to the inn kitchen to order, she hurriedly went back to look at Lu Yanran, but found that she was gone!
She was so shocked that she almost didn't come up, and when she saw that the window of the room was open, she thought that she must have jumped out of the window and escaped, so she quickly called someone to chase her.
"Miss, I can be regarded as finding you." The little girl said breathlessly. "If the master comes back and finds that you are not there, he will be angry!"
When Lu Yanran saw her face, she didn't get angry, and she limped forward and slapped her: "What are you, dare to talk to me like this!" ”
The little maid stumbled after being beaten, standing aggrievedly covering her face, and there were more and more onlookers on the street, all curious about whose young lady this was, and she had such a big temper.
"Man'er, don't talk yet, help the young lady back first." The man spoke.
Man'er didn't dare to start on the side, Lu Yanran glanced at her, and walked ahead of herself, the pain in her ankle kept coming, but it couldn't compare to the anxiety in her heart.
Now Song Xinshu is her only expectation, but now that she is being watched by these people, she doesn't know when she will be able to escape!
