In the face of the attitude of the Lu clan people who were condescending and turning their faces and not recognizing people, Lu Zhen did not feel too annoyed.

After all, he is not the real Lu family's son Lu Jin, but he just borrowed such an identity. As for whether their attitude towards him is good or bad, he doesn't care about it at all, he doesn't live in the village anyway, he still has more than 1,000 taels of silver around him, he can move to Suzhou City to live, and he doesn't interact with these snobbish clansmen.

Even in Lu Jin's mind, this kind of relationship is the most beneficial to him. Because of this, it is impossible for him to be beaten as an imposter, and the clansmen who are very familiar with him can see the clues and flaws.

It was with this thought in mind that Lu Jin, who was walking home drunk, was not in a bad mood. Although it was dark, it was easy to find the small courtyard where the carriage and three horses were parked in front of the door.

This small courtyard is a single family, although it is not too luxurious, but it is also quite clean. There are three tiled houses in a row, and it looks quite passable, so it seems that the Lu Zhen family still has some status and status in the village, but it is quite different from what I originally thought.

Hearing Lu Jin's footsteps coming from outside, the rooms on both sides opened at the same time. Lin Lie, Qing Gele, and Yun Yan and Qingwu all stood in front of the door and looked at him. Seeing them looking at him with some strange eyes, Lu Jin unconsciously felt a little strange, and couldn't help but touch his face with his hand: "What, is there something wrong with me?" ”

"Childe will come to the house and take a look." Yun Yan smiled, then walked out of the door and helped Lu Zhen open the room in the middle.

Since there are only three rooms in this small courtyard, and there are five of them, the allocation is naturally one for the two of Lin Lie, one for Yun Yan's master and servant, and Lu Zhen lives alone in the middle room.

After walking into the room and sweeping it in by the candlelight in Yun Yan's hand, Lu Zhen was stunned. The furnishings in this room are all brand new furniture, beds, tables, chairs, benches, and even a bookcase for people to read and write. Just by looking at the lacquer color on them, you can know that they have only been newly created in the past two years, and they have not been used by anyone.

That's not all, at this moment, on that table, there are also a lot of wrapped gift boxes, and when I stepped forward, there were names on them, all of which were congratulatory gifts from the relatives of the Lu family. Although it looks like it's just something elegant but inexpensive like a lake pen and ink, it's also a piece of everyone's heart.

Looking at these, Lu Jin unconsciously hooked the corners of his mouth and laughed. Yun Yan on the side looked a little surprised: "I didn't expect that Lu Gongzi's clan would be so kind to you, it's really dangerous to see people's hearts." ”

"Do you see people's hearts in danger?" Lu Jin's hand stroked these things lightly, and said meaningfully: "That's true, I have seen it with my own eyes just now." ”

"Huh?" Yun Yan, who was good at observing words and feelings, felt that there was something in his words, and couldn't help but glance at Lu Jin, wanting to ask for an understanding.

But Lu Zhen yawned and said with a smile: "I'm tired of traveling for days, and I drank a few more glasses, so Miss Yun Yan will rest in peace." ”

He said so, and Yun Yan naturally didn't want to pester him anymore to ask questions, so he bowed and retreated. However, before leaving, he lit the candle on the table for Lu Jin, so that the room was also bright.

And Lu Zhen smiled at the corner of his mouth, looking at the gifts that these clansmen had secretly sent before, guessing their mood at the moment. I'm afraid these people must feel the pain in their flesh. But since everything has been delivered, they can only admit it.

@@@@@

Lu Zhen obviously overestimated the character of these clansmen. The next morning, while he was still in his dream, there was already a quarrel outside the door, which made him sit up from the bed quite impatiently: "Why don't you let people sleep well this morning?" In the past, when I was an official, I was just busy with affairs, but now I am not an official, and there are still people who come to make noise! ”

Feeling angry, Lu Zhen opened the door with a black face and walked out. As a result, as soon as he went out, he was frightened, because inside and outside the courtyard, there were actually more than ten or twenty women standing at this moment, all of whom were the wives of the people in the village who had met yesterday, that is, his sister-in-law or aunt.

Originally, they were arguing with Lin Lie and Qinggele, who were blocking the way, but as soon as they saw Lu Zhen coming out, someone immediately shouted: "Xiao Qi, it's good for you to come out." Hurry up, return everything to us. ”

"Something?" Lu Zhen touched his face, because of the hangover, his brain was still a little chaotic.

"yes, just the ones in your house."

"That's right, those were the ones we left at your house yesterday, and we're still waiting to exchange them for money to live, you can't ignore everyone's things!"

These women are talking word by word, just like they are afraid that Lu Zhen will not recognize them, and some people even want to squeeze into the house and do it themselves.

This time, Lu Jinke was a little dumbfounded. He really didn't expect that these Lu clan people would be so thick-skinned, and they could not pay attention to it so much, after knowing that they were no longer officials, not only did they disperse last night's wine banquet, but they also came to the door today to ask for a gift back.

Lin Lie had never encountered such a situation, and these women were Lu Jin's relatives, which made him not know whether to stop him or not, and he seemed a little overwhelmed for a while, but he was squeezed back by these women, so he had to look at Lu Jin: "My lord......"

In the face of this group of shameless guys, what else can Lu Zhen do? You can't just ignore their face like them, and then ignore his things, right? So he had to speak: "Stop." I won't ask for anything you sent, so I'll take it out for you. Anyway, it has your own names on it, so you can't go wrong. As he spoke, he gave Lin Lie and Qinggele, who rushed out after hearing the sound, a look.

The two of them understood, and hurried into the house, and quickly took out all the worthless things, and then let the women take them back.

This farce lasted for almost half an hour, and these women with little insight took their things and left satisfied. And when they left, Lu Jin's eyes were still full of disdain, as if he was embarrassed by him, the person who passively accepted the gift and returned it.

"Childe, this ......" It wasn't until they dispersed that Yun Yan came over with some surprise. It's only been one night, how did such a 180-degree shift happen?

Lu Zhen smiled: "These things of theirs were given to Lord Lu, but they were not given to me, Lu Jin." ”

"I see...... Yun Yan realized at this time, and couldn't help but sigh lightly: "Son, don't be unhappy because of this, it's not worth it." ”

"Naturally, I don't get angry over this little thing, they don't deserve it." Lu Zhen smiled coldly, how could he be as knowledgeable as these foolish men and fools in the village?

While he was talking, another person came to the gate of the courtyard, Lu Zhen only said that he was also here to get things back, so he swept his eyes to the side, but found that there were no more gifts, so he said: "Fourth brother, your things should have been taken back by someone just now." ”

"Xiao Qi, what are you talking about, our own brothers, how can we account for such a trivial matter. It was those people who were shallow in the world who did such things after knowing that you were no longer an official. Lu Tang entered the door with a smile, waved his hand at Lu Zhen and said, "But you don't have to worry about this matter, the situation in the village is not very good, so everyone will do this." ”

"The fourth brother is serious, how can I complain about these elders because of this? In fact, I should thank the people in the village. If you hadn't taken care of me, I wouldn't have been away from home for so many years, and this house wouldn't be so clean. Lu Zhen saw that he spoke decently, so he also said a few polite words.

Unexpectedly, when he mentioned this, Lu Tang also nodded: "What you say is reasonable, and I am here for this." ”

"Huh?" Lu Zhen was slightly stunned, not understanding what he meant.

Lu Wrapping Pi said with a smile: "Xiao Qi, don't pretend to be stupid." Although you have been gone for several years, you will not have an impression of what your home was like. It turned out that those dilapidated houses had actually been blown down by strong winds two years ago. But who called us relatives in the clan, so my family paid for someone to rebuild these three houses for you. How's it going, it wasn't bad to stay last night, right? ”

Lu Jin was a little dumbfounded, he really didn't know what the situation of Lu Jin's family was. But now that you look closely, these three tiled houses are really new, and when you contact the furniture inside, the other party's words can be accepted.

Lu Tang continued to laugh and said: "As the head of the clan, our family is in charge, and if something happens in each family, we naturally want to help. But the money to build the house, as well as the brand new furniture inside, has to be paid by yourself. As the so-called brothers have to settle accounts, right? Moreover, since you Xiaoqi have been an official for a few years, you always have some net worth, you shouldn't care about this money, right? ”

Yes, this one is even more powerful than those just now, and he actually came to ask for an account!

Lu Zhen can be regarded as understanding what it means to turn his face faster than turning a book. Yesterday, the words of concern between relatives were still in my ears, and today I have to make everything clear. He really felt sad for the original Lu Jin, who actually had such a group of ruthless relatives.

Soon, Lu Zhen pressed down on his unhappiness, and said with a smile: "Fourth brother, what you said is true, then you can give a number." ”

"It's not much, just thirteen taels of silver."

Lu Zhen nodded: "Then I'll send the silver over later, and I also have something I want to discuss with my uncle." ”

Seeing that Lu Jinwas willing to give money, Lu Tang smiled with satisfaction, and without saying anything, he turned around and left. He didn't notice that a trace of anger had flashed in Lu Jin's eyes, who seemed calm at this moment-since you people are not affectionate, then don't blame me for returning a tooth for a tooth!
