Chapter 15: The Visitor
Wan'er sat behind a guqin, stroking the strings with both hands, looking at Shi Lan who was lying by the window with a gloomy expression, and her heart moved.
Presumably, as the eldest son of the Shi family, he was born a waste, and the pressure in Shi Lan's heart on weekdays is unimaginable to ordinary people......
Thinking of this, Wan'er couldn't help but feel a little sympathy in her heart.
Shi Lan's gaze swept into the distance without focus, and two pillars of light of different colors suddenly crashed into her field of vision, fleeting.
Shi Lan rubbed her eyes, but she didn't see half a trace of the pillar of light, she only thought that she was dazzled.
β¦β¦
The two rays of light quickly skimmed over Tenglong City and landed in a small forest ten miles away from Tenglong City.
After a while, three figures came out of the woods.
The leader was a seventy-year-old man, with a childish face, dressed in a white robe, and in good spirits, followed by two young men of the same age, a man and a woman.
The woman is dressed in a cyan suit, tall and tall, with bright eyes and bright teeth, and her eyes are like cut water, she is a stunning beauty.
Such a beauty, between her behavior, but she doesn't see half of her little daughter's posture, she is capable and free, and her body exudes a very sharp and enterprising atmosphere.
The man next to the woman was a little younger, handsome, tall, and a little impatient in his expression.
"Sister Yueqing, isn't it just the middle of the month tomorrow? What are you doing so early? β
The woman shook her head, "Just follow along, don't talk too much." β
The old man smiled softly, "This is a lifelong event related to Yueqing, for this Yueqing's future husband, you must first do some understanding, and you can't listen to the words of the family." β
The three of them entered Tenglong City, came to a restaurant, asked for a private room, ordered a table of dishes, and sat down.
"Guest officer, your dishes are ready, please use them slowly." Xiao Er finished the dishes, said a word, and was about to turn around to get busy, but was stopped.
"Xiao Er, stay here, I'll wait until I first arrive in Tenglong City, and I want to ask you about something." Lu Yueqing said, throwing a silver ingot to Xiao Er.
Xiao Er took the silver and smiled, "Guest officer, you ask." β
"Do you know this Tenglong City Shi family?"
"What you said, the name of the Shi family, don't say that in this Tenglong City, this radius of hundreds of miles, who doesn't know?"
"It's good to know, this eldest son of the Shi family......"
When he heard the words of the eldest son of the Shi family, Xiao Er suddenly looked panicked, and without waiting for Lu Yueqing to finish asking, he sent the silver in his hand back to Lu Yueqing.
"Guest officer... I'm sorry, we don't dare to talk nonsense about this master. β
"Oh?"
Lu Yueqing frowned and glanced at the old man beside her.
"Xiao Er doesn't have to be nervous, there is no one else here, let's just ask, you can talk about it casually." The old man opened his mouth with a smile, took out something from his sleeve, and pushed it to Xiao Er.
Looking at the yellow and clear gold ingot in front of him, Xiao Er swallowed his saliva, hurriedly picked up the gold ingot, and after confirming the authenticity, he stuffed the gold ingot into his arms, and a smile appeared on his face again.
"Guest, ask."
"Just tell us, what kind of person is the eldest son of the Shi family?"
"The head of the Shi family has three sons, and Shi Lan, the eldest son of the Shi family, is the least motivated and cannot be on the stage." Xiao Er lowered his voice.
The old man smiled slightly, and glanced at Lu Yueqing, Lu Yueqing's expression did not change at all, but nodded at Xiao Er, "Go on." β
"This Shi Lan is in a martial arts family, but he was born a waste, his temperament is quite unruly, there is no one in his eyes, there are only a few people in Tenglong City who can be seen by him, every time he travels, he is always followed by a large number of guards and slaves, and when he plays in the city, he encounters a little unpleasant, and he often beats people and smashes the store."
Lu Yueqing's expression still didn't change, and she asked flatly, "These are what you saw with your own eyes?" β
"It's not that I've seen it all, most of them are rumors, but yesterday Shi Lan was here, sending guards to seriously injure my famous talent Xu Yuanbai Xu Gongzi in Tenglong City, this is what the villain has seen with his own eyes."
Lu Yueqing stopped talking, and slowly narrowed her eyes, hiding the emotions in her eyes.
Xiao Er said the rise, and said in a mysterious whisper: "It is said that this Shi Lan is good for men and has the good of Longyang, so Xu Gongzi has an unclear relationship with him!" β
"You're ready to go out." The old man waved his hand expressionlessly.
"Okay, guest officer, what the villain said today, don't say that the villain told you." Xiao Er said, took back the ingot of silver from Lu Yueqing, and withdrew with a smile.
"Yueqing, look at this ......" The old man didn't speak, and the man who had been lowering his head to listen to Xiao Er's words on the side couldn't help it at first, jumped up and shouted:
"Such a pickled scoundrel, how can he be Sister Yueqing's husband? How to be my Lu family's uncle?! β
"Lu Yuan, stop!" The old man snorted,
Lu Yueqing slowly shook her head, stood up, and walked outside the private room.
"Sister Yueqing, where are you going? You haven't eaten yet. Seeing Lu Yueqing go out, Lu Yuan called.
"If you can't eat, just go shopping."
The old man glared at Lu Yuan, and said angrily: "Eat!" β
Lu Yuan knew that he had just said the wrong thing, so he lowered his head, didn't dare to say anything, and ate silently.
β¦β¦
Lu Yueqing walked on the bluestone-paved street, looking at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, and was a little at a loss for a while.
At this time, Lu Yueqing seemed to be able to hear his father's assurance, "Tiger father has no dog, with Brother Tianlu's talent, his son will definitely not be bad, Yueqing, just go and see." β
For this fiancΓ© who is married with his fingertips, Lu Yueqing actually has some expectations in her heart, and the son of a close friend who is worthy of his father's praise must not be far behind.
But the reality was very different from what she imagined.
As she walked, Lu Yueqing seemed to come to a small building.
Looking at the three words 'Hundred Flowers Pavilion' on the plaque, and hearing the faint sound of men and women laughing inside, Lu Yueqing quickly understood what kind of place this was, and her face was a little red for a while, feeling a little embarrassed.
Lu Yueqing quickened her pace, and when she wanted to leave quickly, a large group of people rushed out, blocking the already not spacious street and blocking her way.
"Shi Gongzi, go slowly."
"I'll come back next time."
A group of warblers and swallows sent each other off.
Shi Lan opened the folding fan in his hand, fanned the wind, and smiled at the guards behind him: "Are you comfortable today?" β
"It's comfortable!"
"Gongzi Xie!"
The guards said in unison with ruddy faces.
"But I'm not feeling well, go home!" Shi Lan's face suddenly turned cold, he snorted, turned to leave, and Shi Feng on the side followed inch by inch.
The guards are confused, and the Oiran is waiting, still uncomfortable?
Seeing that Shi Lan and the two had already walked away, everyone didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly followed.
Looking at the departing group, Lu Yueqing was thoughtful.
