After seeing Lu Xun again, Jiang Yun was very sad to find that he had let this little girl be deceived. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoThe eldest lady of the Lu family doesn't have the consciousness of being a big person at all. She glanced at Jiang Yun's deed of sale very calmly, then nodded without blushing, and said, "Go down to work, I know about this."

You know a ball, you know! spent dozens of taels of unjust silver, and even sold himself, in exchange for a sentence of "I know", Jiang Yun felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

This time, he really didn't know what to do. Although the situation in the temple is critical, after all, it is powerful to borrow, and now Lu Xun is obviously unwilling to intervene, and his perfunctory attitude has been put on the surface, in the face of absolute power, purely relying on personal wisdom, it is undoubtedly impossible to rescue Zhao Junren.

Putting aside the grace of saving lives, Zhao Junren and him have had the experience of sharing hardships after all, and Jiang Yun really can't do it if he can't save him, the question is how to save it.

Walking out of the heart cultivation house and sending away the little maid who was waiting quietly outside the house, Jiang Yun drooped his head and wandered around the Lu Mansion aimlessly, with a thousand thoughts in his heart turning sharply, thinking carefully about the possible breakthrough.

I don't know how long I walked, Jiang Yun walked to a gazebo, a familiar figure was sitting in the gazebo, leisurely raised his hand to pick up the small porcelain cup on the stone table, raised his head and drank it all, and afterwards smashed his mouth very uneatenly, with a look of enjoyment.

Isn't this Old Man Lu? Jiang Yun's eyes lit up, he and Zhao Junren had seen this old man before, judging from the conversation between the two, it seemed that there was still some friendship, although I heard that he had long ignored the family's affairs, but it didn't hurt to try.

Jiang Yun was thinking about how to go up and talk, but Lu Qian also saw him, and the little old man waved his hand enthusiastically. "Come on, have a drink with the old man."

Drinking in broad daylight, this old man will really enjoy it. Jiang Yun stepped forward and raised his hand to salute: "I've seen Grandpa Lu." ”

"The old man remembers, it was you who followed Xiaojun that day, right?" Lu Qian smiled kindly: "Don't be formal, come and sit down and taste the old man's new wine." ”

Look, look! The two ancestors and grandchildren who are in the same lineage, why is the gap so big! Judging from his memory, Lu Xun is more like a person in his seventies and eighties! Jiang Yun looked down and said in amazement: "Wine? ”

"Yes, it's a hot summer, and it's a great pleasure to have a glass of wine." Lu Qian said, grabbed the wine jug and filled it with a small glass, handed it to Jiang Yundao, "Come, taste it." ”

"Okay, you're welcome." Only on the wine table is a good friendship, Jiang Yun knows this very well, and he is not hypocritical, so he picked up a small glass and drank it all. "Wine is good wine, but unfortunately, if it can be chilled, it is a real enjoyment."

Wine? Good wine! This sour and tongue-grabbing thing can be drunk by the old man, how unseen he has never seen the world! Compared to the ten taels of silver a glass of wine that Jiang Lan enjoyed every day, this thing was not even qualified to be served on the table at all.

"Chilled wine?" Lu Qian smiled, but shook his head slightly and said, "In the hot summer, where to get ice cubes." ”

"Huh?" Jiang Yun was stunned for a moment and said, "The Lu family doesn't have an underground ice cellar? ”

Lu Qian filled himself with another cup and said: "No, Yizhou is not as northern as the Great Zhou, it is hot here, even in the cold winter season, there will only be a few thin pieces of ice, which cannot be stored at all, what is the use of an ice cellar?" Don't say that my Lu family is looking at the entire Yizhou, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to find a piece of ice at this time. ”

Talk nonsense! Ice cubes, the temple has it! The Divine Sect can get ice cubes by smuggling, and the Lu family has mastered the main waterways in Yizhou, so how can there be a reason why they can't get it? If you're poor, admit it, and I won't laugh at you! Jiang Yun pursed his lips, not too entangled in this issue, and changed his words, "I have a way to get ice cubes, Grandpa Lu is willing to give it a try?" ”

"Oh? Seriously? When Lu Qian heard this, he was also interested.

"Naturally, it is serious, but to make ice cubes, there is an indispensable object, this thing is contraband in Yizhou, and the control is extremely strict, unless Grandpa Lu goes out in person, otherwise it will definitely not be taken."

"What?"

"Saltpeter."

"Gunpowder raw materials?" When it came to gunpowder, Lu Qian hesitated for a while. "How much do you need?"

Jiang Yun stretched out his hand and gestured. "It's just a small piece of ice crystal, it doesn't take too much, and that's it."

This bit of saltpeter, I'm afraid that I can't even make a firecracker, thinking that it's not a big problem, Lu Qian thought for a moment and nodded and responded: "Okay, the old man will go get it, you wait here." ”

After all, Lu Qian is the nominal boss of the Lu family, he is extremely efficient, and his body is quite healthy, so it didn't take long for him to rush back with a small bag of saltpeter. Jiang Yun's eyes were sharp, and he saw a green-shirted maid who was about to go to the laundry not far away, so he hurriedly stepped forward and borrowed a wooden bucket.

Everything was ready, Jiang Yun scooped up half a bucket of water from the pond by the pavilion, and slowly poured the saltpeter in his hand. It didn't take long for a chill to rise on the surface of the water, and half a bucket of water in the pool really formed ice cubes.

Seeing this, Lu Qian couldn't help but be amazed, and sighed repeatedly: "I didn't expect that saltpeter has such a wonderful use." ”

"This ice can only be chilled, and it must not be taken orally, Grandpa Lu must remember." Jiang Yun reminded him loudly, seeing that the fire was almost over, he suddenly changed his words and said: "If the ice cube is there, the kid won't disturb you to enjoy the wine, my brother Zhao Junren is now framed, and his life is on the verge of death, and the kid has to try to save him, so he will retire first." ”

"Oh? What happened to Joon? ”

The conversation had already started, Jiang Yun naturally would not be polite, and muttered about his previous life with added fuel and vinegar, and Lu Qian couldn't help frowning when he heard it.

"Have you ever told Xun'er about this?"

"Say it!" Speaking of this, Jiang Yun was full of resentment. "The eldest lady only said that she knew, and the kid estimated that she didn't want to get involved in this matter."

"Not really." How could Lu Qian not know the temperament of his granddaughter? He smiled: "Since Xun'er said that she knows, she will definitely try to deal with this matter." It's just that she has to wait for you to get up before she can come forward to sing this play with you. ”

"What do you mean?"

Lu Qian sighed helplessly and said, "Even if I don't say something, it's not a secret to think about it, so I might as well talk to you directly." Don't look at Xun'er's superficial scenery, in fact, her life is not easy. At home, she is a long house, but she is a woman, there are men in the second and third rooms, and she is in charge of clan affairs. For more than 20 years, the Lu family's military and political affairs have relied on foreign surnames, especially the two naval commanders, who have held the army for more than 20 years, and there are many protégés and former officials, and the influence in the army is very great, so it must not be easily resisted. Outside the clan, the Yang and Li families are getting stronger and stronger, their ambitions are growing, and they frequently join forces to suppress our Lu family. Family affairs, national affairs, world affairs, she worries about everything, everything is not going well, how can she walk on thin ice and be cautious? ”

"Ahh Jiang Yun opened his mouth, and he couldn't react for a while, looking at it this way, this Lu Xun is simply a tragedy! "I'm going to get up, will the eldest lady really come forward?"

It's not difficult to start, he is good at picking things, the problem is that he is afraid that he will be hot after shaving his head, if Lu Xun doesn't stand up, he will have to pay for it.

"Yes." Lu Qian smiled slightly and said, "Xun'er is cold and hot-hearted, and she is not an unreasonable person. She took on the responsibility of the family at the age of fourteen, and spoke coldly to people, not because she hated them, but because she was afraid that people would see what she thought in her heart, and she developed a habit over time. The old man vaguely remembered that she still loved to laugh when she was a child. ”

Looking at Lu Qian's true feelings, Jiang Yun's resentment towards Lu Xun in his heart couldn't help but gradually dissipate, no matter what, since you want to play, you might as well play big!

Jiang Yun's eyes narrowed again.
