The person who yelled in front of him before was thrown to the ground like a dead dog in the blink of an eye, not to mention Jin Liu's pride. On a whim, he couldn't help but use his proudest way of driving a car, wielding a horsewhip with great fascination, driving this old carriage through the streets and alleys. This was a bitter misery for the other carriage that did not know the road and dropped out of the back, and only barely turned three corners before losing the trace of the target in front of it, and was scolded by the master again.

But these are naturally not within the scope of Xu Xun's consideration. went out early in the morning to Shen's house to deliver a letter, and then performed such a scene with Zhu Sihai in Yingtianfuya, and then was bumped back and forth by this carriage, he only felt that his whole body almost fell apart. It's just that hard work is tired, but the harvest of today's trip is not small, at least, he has taken the first step. Thinking of this, his face showed a hint of relief, and he fell asleep again unconsciously with the backrest on his pillow.

"Young master, young master?"

I don't know how long it took for Xu Xun to wake up under the continuous call. Exhausted, he opened his eyes, and saw that the curtain of the car was beaten high, and Jin Liu, who was standing there, was full of smiles, and he had to move his numb arms to sit up straight, and then lowered his head and got out of the car. Before he could enter the door, Jin Liu dropped the carriage and followed.

"Young master, just now my mother-in-law said that someone from the Shen family is here, and it is the road housekeeper who is waiting at home, and it is said that he has been waiting for half an hour." Seeing that Xu Xun suddenly turned around, Jin Liu hurriedly lowered his voice and said, "Calculate the time, it should be that he went out and arrived here not long after we left the Shen family, but I don't know what it was for." ”

Xu Xun knew that most of the Shen family would come, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly, and when he looked around, he found that there was indeed a carriage parked against the wall, and the coachman was sitting there napping with a felt cloak and a hat on his face. As soon as his heart moved, he nodded at Jin Liu.

"yes, I see. It's hard for you today, so let's go and rest first. ”

Although Jin Liu had the heart to inquire about why the chief housekeeper of the Shen family suddenly ran to his house, Xu Xun left him and went straight inside, and he remembered the scene where Zhu Sihai personally sent him off at the east gate of Yingtianfu Ya, and for a while he felt that this young master was unfathomable. Seeing that Xu Xun was about to enter the screen door, he caught a glimpse of a box of mille-feuille crisps in his hand, and suddenly chased after him quickly, and shouted loudly: "Young master, you forgot something, this is the mille-feuille crisp that Steward Zhu gave you!" ”

Jin Liu's shouting was so loud that Rayson, who didn't know how many cups of tea he had made for the right of way, heard it immediately. He suddenly forgot that the person sitting next to him needed to be served well, rushed to the door in three steps and two steps, opened the curtain and saw Xu Xun take the box in Jin Liu's hand, and then turned around and walked over. He hurriedly crossed the threshold and walked out of the house, just standing under the eaves, until Xu Xun approached, he grabbed the person, leaned over and muttered in a low voice.

"Young master, you must be careful, Steward Lu has been waiting for a long time, and he has been keeping a straight face, and he must be in a bad mood."

"Got it, got it." Xu Xun nodded casually, and casually opened the box in his hand, "I'm waiting at home for you, haven't you eaten yet?" First taste a mille-feuille cushion to cushion hunger, Steward Zhu said that it was made by the new cook of the sixth uncle's family, and it was so boastful, you can also taste what it tastes like. ”

"Me?"

Ruisheng looked at Xu Xun, and saw that his young master's face was full of pouting, so he nodded hesitantly, stretched out his hand and took out a piece of two fingers, and put it to his mouth before biting it, the mouth full of fresh fragrance immediately made his eyebrows flutter, and he took a big gulp after a glance at Xu Xun, and after a while, a large piece of mille-feuille cake was wiped out.

Xu Xun saw Ruisheng gobbling up like this, his bright eyes didn't blink, and there were several sesame seeds in the corners of his mouth but he didn't know it, he couldn't help but smile dumbly, and handed over the entire box with a smile: "Okay, don't be gluttonous, if you like it, take it and eat it first!" ”

"Ah, how does this work?" Ruisheng couldn't help but lick the fragrant sesame seeds on his lips, and when he saw Xu Xun looking at him, his face suddenly turned red, and he hurriedly reached out and pushed the box back, "Steward Lu is inside, the young master has got a good thing, just to entertain guests, I will be content with eating such a piece, I dare not be greedy......"

"It's just a box of snacks, how can even greedy words come out. Besides, the Shen family doesn't have any good things, and this little thing should be laughed at and generous when it is taken to entertain guests! Xu Xun couldn't help but stuff the box into Ruisheng's hand, and said, "Take it and divide it for Jin Liu's family, and drive out early in the morning, waiting and leaving, and it's hard for him." ”

Xu Xun said as he paid attention to the movement inside. Sure enough, as soon as he finished saying this, there was a heavy cough from inside. Knowing that the road steward was impatient, he didn't say much, and made a gesture to Latham and opened the curtain and entered the door.

Naturally, there were no lights in the house in broad daylight, but the window paper that had not been changed for years had not been changed, and there was a thick layer of putty on it, so it was dark everywhere. Xu Xun, who came in from outside, squinted his eyes slightly, and it took a while to get used to the change of gaze, and then he saw the person sitting on the first chair in the lower left over there.

I saw that the man was in his early forties, and his figure was slightly fat, but in stark contrast to the thick eyebrows, it was the thinning hair. Seeing his master enter the door, the man still sat for a moment, and then slowly stood up.

"The Seventh Young Master is back!" Lu Quan, who stood up, bowed slightly, and his words were not so polite, "If I don't come back, I don't know how much tea I have to pour in my stomach!" ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really didn't expect the road steward to come, plus I've been delayed outside for a long time, so it's too late." Xu Xun smiled and groaned, never mentioning the four words of Tianfu Ya, and as soon as he raised his hand and sat down at the main seat, he preemptively said, "Steward Lu is here, but for the reason I went to the Shen family to submit a book before?" ”

Steward Lu originally planned to say a few words of greeting, and then go around the bush to get to the point, but he didn't want Xu Xun to get straight to the point, so he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart. But after he followed Master Shen for decades, he calmed down in a moment, and immediately asked with a smile: "Does the Seventh Young Master know that the word divorce is not trivial, if you go to court, you will be punished?" ”

"The Da Ming law is a strict order for divorce, but I have already inquired, and if the people do not raise it, the officials will not be held accountable, but is this so?"

"Even so, such a big thing is not something that the Seventh Young Master just talks about. If there is no venerable elder to come forward, I am afraid that ......"

"What if I have an elder who is willing to come forward?"

Seeing that Xu Xun answered faster than his own question, Steward Lu thought that the young man was acting rashly, or breaking the jar in frustration, but at this time, he couldn't help but be suspicious. Although the 100 yuan money ticket in his arms was still there, he didn't take it out rashly, and the hand on his chest just gently rubbed the placket of his clothes. Suddenly, thinking of something on the previous letter, he suddenly raised his head and stared intently into Xu Xun's eyes.

"I still don't know something, why did the Seventh Young Master have the intention of retiring from the marriage?"

"Didn't Master Shen always want to get out of the marriage?" Seeing that Lu Quan's face stiffened suddenly, Xu Xun said unhurriedly, "There has been no news from my father for many years, and I used to be young and rash and did a lot of wrong things, so naturally I couldn't match Miss Shen's family, so I decided to withdraw from the marriage." Don't worry about what I'm trying to blackmail. ”

Xu Xun even said the word blackmail, which can be said to be a real piercing of the layer of window paper. For a while, although the right of way was relieved, he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart, and under this annoyance, he sneered: "Isn't it blackmailing anything? Isn't it because the Xu family is about to hold a clan conference, so the seventh young master wants to exchange this for my family master to intercede for you......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Xu Xun Huo Ran get up, and his heart was suddenly shocked, and he immediately felt a little remorseful. Shen Guang sent him in the hope of breaking the marriage with the smallest price, but Xu Xun's words were unexpected everywhere, and as a result, he actually said everything in his heart, which was really unwise.

"What I do is my business, so I don't have to worry about the Shen family."

The mud bodhisattva also has a three-point fire surname, not to mention that Xu Xun's original intention was only to take the initiative, and he was not really afraid of the Shen family. At this time, looking at the right of way that was a little uneasy, he said lightly: "The matter of divorce is originally big or small, and I think that the Shen family originally wanted to make things storm in the city and ruin Miss Shen's life." As for whether the Xu family's clan assembly will expel me, I think Steward Lu had better understand a little bit! ”

He paused for a moment, and then laughed and said: "That is, no matter what I do, the marriage letter between my father and Master Shen is still there, and when the time comes, the clan will naturally not look at the second room, and it is necessary to pick someone to become the heir, and the one who will enter the heir will never let go of such a good family business." That person is good, if it is not good, the eldest lady of the Shen family has just escaped the tiger's mouth and entered the wolf's claws! Rather than the Shen family looking at the face of the Xu family at that time, it is better to retire from the marriage cleanly now, as for me to say that the surname Xu is good, whether it is surnamed Xu or not, what does it have to do with the Shen family? However, since the road steward insists on taking my little kindness as a calculation, then I will not accompany him. Someone, send off! ”

With this shout, Latham almost slammed the curtain of the door and hurried into the door, strode to the right of way and stood still, but said in a stiff tone: "Road steward, please!" ”

Lu Quan's face became worse and worse at this time, and he hated himself deeply that he shouldn't think that Xu Xun was a prodigal loser who didn't know anything. These words hit his heart, and he didn't know how to answer.

"Steward Lu, you can do it yourself!"

Seeing that Lu Quan's face was blue and white, Xu Xun just brushed his sleeves away. It wasn't until he entered the East Room that the anger on his face disappeared, but he smiled. The right-of-way person came, but he still had this unnecessary shelf, which shows the posture of the Shen family. Even if he proposed to withdraw from the marriage first, if people think that he is a soft persimmon that is easy to pinch, then they are wrong.
