Chapter 33: Lu Lu and Qin Thimble

According to Xu Rongcai's statement, Lu Lu is a villain who abducts other people's wives, but when Lu Lu narrates, it becomes that Xu Rongcai is a villain who robs halfway!

According to Lu Lu's statement, the process is like this, Lu Lu originally lived in Guanzhong, is a Yongzhou family, just because there are few people in Guanzhong, it is more and more difficult to make a living, Lu Lu's family is poor, the ancestors did not leave a land, the family can only live by renting the landlord's field, and the life is quite hard.

They didn't want their son to live this kind of hard life, so they sold the things in the house, and almost all of them were sold, so they scraped together some travel expenses and handed them over to Lu Lu, so that Lu Lu left his hometown to make a living.

Before Lu Lu left, Lu Lu's father told Lu Lu that it was difficult for poor people to make a living, and if Lu Lu was still poor after he arrived in a foreign country, and he could not return to his hometown in the future, then he should stop thinking about returning to his roots and take root in other places.

And Lu's father told Lu Lu very solemnly, don't feel guilty because you can't support your parents for the elderly, this is the life of the poor, born poor, you have to accept your fate, but if Lu Lu can one day return to his hometown, then remember to go to his parents' grave and tell his parents, this can be regarded as reassuring his parents!

Lu Lu cried a lot, carrying a small burden, and walked east alone, hoping to find a place where he could have enough to eat, all the way to the east, he experienced a lot of things on the way, so that Lu Lu understood more that it was not easy to survive, until he came to Guancheng.

There is a ready-to-wear store in Guancheng, dealing in all kinds of finished clothes, hats, shoes and socks, the owner of the store is surnamed Qin, and the neighbors in the neighborhood call him Qin's shopkeeper.

In this era, ordinary people's clothes are generally sold at home, cut and sewn to wear, but if you want to be more particular and make decent clothes, then you have to find a professional tailor, that is, to make new clothes in a ready-to-wear store.

The shopkeeper Qin's craftsmanship is very good, the business in the ready-to-wear store is also very good, the family of three has a very good life, and they don't have to worry about food and clothing, but the shopkeeper Qin also has troubles, that is, he has no son, only a daughter.

The shopkeeper Qin loves this daughter very much, and named her thimble, he is a tailor, so the daughter is called thimble, which can be regarded as a daughter inheriting her father's business.

After Lu Lu arrived in Guancheng, he wanted to find a job to do, he didn't want any wages, as long as he managed to eat, he looked for it, and found a ready-to-wear store, Qin saw that he was honest and honest, so he let him go to the store as an apprentice, of course, the most important thing is that Lu Lu didn't want to be paid.

Lu Lu knows that it is not easy to make a living, so he cherishes this job very much, works very hard, never lazy, it is really earlier than chickens, more than cows, and worse than dogs, but he never complains, and he has been doing it for several years.

It is impossible to see how virtuous a person is in a short time, but after a long time, how a person is, others will know in their hearts, the apprentices of the ready-to-wear store have changed one stubble after another, only Lu Lu persevered, and the shopkeeper Qin was very satisfied with him.

At this time, the thimble is also old, because the Qin shopkeeper is reluctant, so she has never married, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting to become an old girl, the Qin shopkeeper discussed with Qin's wife, and asked the meaning of the thimble, and decided to recruit Lu Lu as a son-in-law and join the Qin family.

Lu Lu has been working in the store for so many years, and he has long been very familiar with the thimble, the thimble is beautiful, and the neighbors all know it, and Lu Lu is honest and able to work, although his appearance is not good, but in this era, ordinary men do not rely on their looks to eat, and they have to have craftsmanship.

Lu Lu was very happy to be able to marry Thimble, and Thimbleer had known LΓΌ Lu for so many years, and he also felt that LΓΌ Lu could be entrusted for life, and the old people in the family were all in favor, so they chose a good day and an auspicious day for them, and they became relatives in the church.

Although Lu Lu and Thimble look like two people from the outside, Thimble is too beautiful, and Lu Lu is too much different, but the husband and wife have a good relationship, after getting married, they soon had a child, and Thimble gave birth to a big fat boy to Lu Lu.

Lu Lu is very filial to Qin's shopkeeper and Qin's wife, as filial piety as his biological parents, the family life is very beautiful, and the business of the ready-to-wear store is getting better and better, but at this moment, some villagers from Lu Lu's hometown went to Guancheng to do business, and happened to see Lu Lu, so he told Lu Lu about his family.

Lu Lu's mother died a few years ago because of poverty and lack of nourishment, and Lu's father lived alone, and he was too old to do physical work, and his poor life was even worse.

Fortunately, there are kind neighbors to help take care of it, but the neighbor's life is not easy, naturally it is impossible to take care of everything, after a long time, Lu's father's body collapsed, before the villagers came out, saw Lu's father's body is not good, now the villagers have been out for half a year, how is Lu's father, whether he is still alive, the villagers are not sure.

After Lu Lu got the news, he was naturally very anxious, his mother had never had a good life in her life, his father was seriously ill, and his son wanted to raise him but his relatives were not there, which was a sad thing in the world, so he told the shopkeeper Qin that he wanted to go home to see his father, and he also wanted to take his father to live in order to facilitate his care.

He is a son-in-law, he can't leave without permission, if he wants to support his father, he must also get the consent of the Qin family, otherwise he can't, this is determined by his identity.

The shopkeeper of Qin is very appreciative of Lu Lu's filial piety, and besides, the Qin family is not short of a pair of chopsticks, and it is not difficult to bring Father Lu to raise.

Moreover, the shopkeeper Qin told Lu Lu that Yongzhou was too far away from Guancheng, and the road was bumpy, and if something unbearable happened, it would be very regrettable, so he asked Lu Lu to go back with the thimble and the child.

If after Lu Lu returns to his hometown, Father Lu is no longer in the world, then Lu Lu can be regarded as returning to his hometown and dealing with Father Lu's funeral, then it is not too late to return to Guancheng.

If Father Lu is still alive, then Father Lu will bring his daughter-in-law and son home and let Father Lu see it, so that the old man can be comforted, and Thimble can also help take care of Father Lu, which can be regarded as filial piety!

So, Lu Lu took the thimble, held the child, rode a green donkey, and went from Guancheng to Yongzhou, in the territory of Guancheng, there was a poor scholar who claimed to be a native of Shaanzhou, named Xu Rongcai, and wanted to take a ride with them, and there was a good response on the road.

Lu Lu is not afraid to go far, no matter how far the road is, no matter how difficult it is, he doesn't have anything to do, he used to walk like this, but now because he has a wife and children, he thinks it's not bad to have a companion to walk with, everyone can take care of each other, that's what he thought at the time.

So, Lu Lu asked Xu Rongcai to follow them on the road, Xu Rongcai is also diligent, he also took the first step when staying at night, found a hotel, Lu Lu and Thimble arrived, and stayed in the hotel directly.

In the evening, Lu Lu also invited Xu Rongcai to have a drink, firstly, to relieve fatigue, and secondly, to chat with the two of them.

Lu Lu told Xu Rongcai about his own situation, and Xu Rongcai also said some things about himself, but Lu Lu's alcohol consumption was not good, he drank a little too much, and after drinking too much, he listened to what he was saying, and in the middle of the night, Xu Rongcai helped Lu Lu back to the room, and then he went to sleep himself.

The next day, because he drank too much at night, Lu Lu got up late, so he delayed the journey, and did not go far the next day, on the way Xu Rongcai took care of Lu Lu and Thimble more dedicatedly, which made Lu Lu and Thimble embarrassed, and felt that they took advantage of Xu Rongcai, originally it was good to take care of each other, but now it has become only Xu Rongcai to take care of them.

Guancheng is not far from Xingyang, although there are female dependents, but after walking for two days, they will arrive in Xingyang, but they didn't think that after arriving in this town today, Xu Rongcai suddenly turned his face and insisted that the thimble was his wife, and then he had to take the luggage and thimble, and even the children had to be taken away.

Of course, Lu Lu didn't do it, so he started fighting and shouting, and the rest of the thing, because it happened across the street, everyone also saw it.

When Lu Lu described what happened, Xu Rongcai always interrupted and refuted, until Zheng Gangling scolded him and told him to be quiet, Xu Rongcai shut up, but he always showed an unconvinced expression on his face, which seemed to be very angry at Lu Lu's description.

After Zheng Gangling listened, he frowned, judging from the descriptions of the two people alone, he couldn't see any flaws, it seemed to be true, he looked at the woman called Thimble.

Thimble doesn't look like a particularly clever and spicy woman, on the contrary, she is a little weak, and she is not the kind of person who is particularly good at talking, in the words of the common people, this is a very honest and honest person.

Zheng Gangling asked, "Your name is thimble?" ”

Thimble nodded hurriedly, she hugged the child tightly, her face was full of fear, maybe she had never seen an official, such a big thing happened today, it may have really frightened her.

Zheng Gangling asked again: "Of the two of them, which one is your husband?" ”

Thimble'er hurriedly pointed at Lu Lu and said, "He, he is the husband of the people's daughter!" ”

Xu Rongcai was in a hurry and shouted: "Lord County Commander, this woman is facing the adulterer, she refuses to tell the truth to the adult!" ”

Lu Lu and Thimble also screamed together, they all said that Xu Rongcai was the one who lied, the three of them quarreled again, and the baby in Thimble's arms also cried, and for a while, the scene became chaotic again.

Zheng Gangling's face sank, and he shouted: "What are you arguing about, presumptuous!" ”

The three of them were too scared to make any more noise, only the baby kept crying!

Zheng Gangling felt that this matter was quite tricky, and he thought that the best way now was to send someone to manage the city, find the ready-to-wear store that Lu Lu said, and then ask the people in the store, or the surrounding neighbors, to know who was lying, even if Lu Lu was powerful, he couldn't buy everyone to lie for him.

However, although Xingyang is not far from Guancheng, if Duan Baokang and Zhang Laoliu are sent to go, just walking on two legs, it is estimated that they may not be able to come back tomorrow or even the day after tomorrow, even if they ride a fast horse, it will be a delay in time to come back and forth, and this thing is not to get there, you can return immediately, it is easy to say, but it is really necessary to verify, it is still very troublesome, and the location of the town is very embarrassing.

Zheng Gangling looked at Li Rizhi and thought, "My little nephew, you won't have any ideas, right?" ”
