After lunch, the rain gradually stopped, but Mama Chen and Steward Liu discussed it and decided to continue to stay in Gulou County today and leave tomorrow.

The reason is that if you hurry at night, you may not be able to get to the next town after nightfall, and Miss Lu is delicate and frail, so it is not suitable to stay overnight in the wild.

As soon as Wen Shu heard this, the worry in his heart was almost written on his face.

She looked at Lu Xingwan, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, shaking her head and reading the scriptures, and asked Ai's mouth: "That.... Big girl, let's go like this, can we go back in half a month? ”

"Half a month?" Lu Xingwan's voice paused for a moment, and then said: "No, it will take half a month on the light road, you said that I am in such a hurry, I have to stay with my grandmother for a few days, if the weather is good, I can come back in a month." ”

"What! It's going to take a month! Although he had already guessed in his heart, when he really faced it, he still felt very angry: "Then what Lord Lu can say for half a month." ”

"That's what my brother told you?" Lu Xingwan didn't know the situation here, but when she saw Wen Shu walking around the room anxiously, she couldn't help asking, "Is there something the little lady wants to rush back to Bianjing?" ”

Wen Shu stopped and frowned: "It's okay, it's just that before I came, I told my father that I would be back in half a month, but now that the time has been extended, if I can't see me then, my father doesn't know how much to worry about." ”

Hearing this reason, Lu Xingwan sneered: "I should still think of something as a big deal, it's just a matter of writing a letter or asking for a message, it just so happens that I have to report to my brother every day, the little lady might as well write a letter, and then I will let the post station go over together." ”

Wen Shu waited for her to say this, since the first day of departure, looking at the speed of the convoy, she began to worry about whether she could come back in half a month, and now this problem can be regarded as solved.

However, with an extra half a month out of thin air, she was still a little depressed in her heart, after all, one more day of time, the burden in her heart would be one day heavier.

No, she seems to remember that the contract is written in black and white that she will be a girl of Lu for "half a month" and treat her daughter closely, and do her duty to protect her.

So that is to say, from the day of departure on the sixteenth, as long as there is no accident within half a month, Miss Lu will not have an accident, her task will be completed, as for the extra half a month, she can continue to protect in the spirit of humanity, but if there is an accident, from the legal point of view, there is no need to be held responsible.

Thinking of this, she instantly relaxed, and her whole body was comfortable.

Thanking Miss Lu, she was about to go back to the soft couch, thinking about the plan for the second half, when she saw Yinhong running in and said angrily: "Girl, we have met a liar!" ”

Lu Xingwan was stunned, put the book aside and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"The beggars we met at noon are fake!" Yinhong said angrily.

"Huh?" Lu Xingwan was a little stunned, as if he didn't understand the meaning of her words.

This beggar can still be fake, just look at their clothes and dirty faces, it is difficult for normal people to pretend to beg like that, unless there is real difficulty.

"Oh, it's not the beggars who begged for money, it's the one who said his mother had hysteria, it was a lie."

Then Yinhong went downstairs to buy something, and then how did she hear people talking on the street, saying that the young man in the morning, how much money had been cheated with this trick, and so on, the tone was quite glamorous.

Yinhong listened, it was angry, and she ran back to report it.

Lu Xingwan was also very uncomfortable when she heard this, two taels of silver was not a big deal for her, but she couldn't bear to be used by someone with good intentions.

After thinking about it, she asked Yinhong, "Have you asked where they live?" ”

Yinhong nodded like pounding garlic, "I inquired, and I said that it was a mountain god who lives in the west." ”

"Okay, you go downstairs and order a few guards now, and you will follow me to the mountain temple later."

"Hey." Yinhong responded crisply, and hurriedly went downstairs to order people.

Mama Chen came over with the white fungus red date soup that Chef Wang had just made, and when she saw Yinhong hurriedly going out, she was puzzled: "Didn't this girl go shopping, and she came back so soon." ”

Lu Xingwan told him what happened in the morning, and after listening to it, Mama Chen persuaded: "Eat a trench and grow a wisdom, two taels of silver is not much, as the saying goes, a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, they are not the first time to cheat, but they have not been taught a lesson for so long, they must have something to rely on, according to the old slave, forget it, let's leave here early tomorrow morning, or don't make extraneous branches." ”

"Mama is too worried, it's only twenty miles out of Beijing, I can't afford to provoke it, then it's farther away, wouldn't it be to pick up the tail and be a man."

Seeing that Mama Chen still wanted to persuade again, she said: "But what Mama said is also reasonable, I am not that reckless, I just took someone over to have a look, and saw what kind of immortal that Xiao Langjun surnamed Liu was, and actually deceived me." ”

Seeing that she had made up her mind, Mama Chen sighed, and then said: "Then I'll go with the girl, and by the way, I will order a few more guards, and when I go out, safety is the best." ”

Lu Xingwan stopped arguing, and said obediently: "Okay, just listen to Mama." ”

The two agreed, and after a while, the fifteen guards lined up outside the inn, Wen Shu and Lu Liu helped Lu Xingwan downstairs, and the group went to the mountain temple in the west of the city.

But when I arrived at the place, it was already empty, and in the open space in the center of the temple, there was still a pile of unburned firewood, judging from the fragrance in the air, it should have been cooking porridge here not long ago.

Wen Shu touched his chin, this is a letter in advance and ran away?

Also, doing this line of work, it is common sense to be cunning rabbit three holes, and they came here with such fanfare, at first glance, it is not good to come, and when they get the news, how can there be any reason not to run.

This mountain temple has not had incense for a long time, the roof has broken holes in many places, and the statue of the mountain god in the main hall is also covered with a thick house of ash.

Seeing this, Lu Xingwan couldn't help but wonder if Yinhong had heard the wrong thing, after all, the young man surnamed Liu, if he was really a liar and had deceived so many people, then he should have some money in hand, and he should not live in this dilapidated and remote mountain temple anymore.

The thought turned, remembering that it was the money she took the initiative to give in the morning, and the young man had also deduced that she had to let the family take it, and it was impossible to talk about deception, so she stopped thinking about looking for that person again.

"Forget it, since the people have already run away, let's go back."

Mama Chen breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, she was worried along the way, afraid that there would be conflicts, but now that it is good, the people have run away, and the girl has also rested.

When the group walked out, Wen Shu, who fell behind, suddenly shouted: "Girl, there is something here." ”
