Chapter 107: Rong Shangshu resigns

The funeral of Rongfu was finally completed, but Rong Shangshu kept complaining that he was sick and did not go to the court, Rong Qing wanted to visit, but every time he was stopped outside by Steward Ma, he only said that Rong Shangshu was resting and should not be disturbed.

Rong had no choice but to give up, and about half a month later, Rong Shangshu suddenly visited.

Lu Chengyan and Rong gently went to greet them in person, only to see Rong Shangshu ordered someone to carry a few boxes in, and when they put it down, the box sank directly and left a mark next to the green brick, Lu Chengyan and Rong glanced at each other lightly, and they both didn't understand what the situation was.

In the living room, Rong gently poured tea for Rong Shangshu personally, then looked at Rong Shangshu and said, "Dad, are you in good health?" ”

Rong Shangshu smiled and nodded slightly: "My body is no longer in trouble, and I also know that you have been to see me, I just have some things to sort out, and it is inconvenient to meet guests." As he spoke, Rong Shangshu pointed to the boxes and said, "Here are some of my collections, and I can't use them now, so I'll give them to you." ”

"Daddy?" Rong screamed in surprise, what do you mean you can't use it?

"I'm ready to resign." Rong Shangshu said. He has been immersed in the court for so many years, and he can be regarded as having experienced wind and rain, and he thinks that he is at least capable of being an official residence. But Rong Huanhuan's death made him suddenly figure it out...... People die like lights going out, and now the clouds above the court are treacherous, and it is common to accidentally lose your life. And he has been an official for decades, for the sake of the court, he neglected his family too much, and now he is tired, so he is ready to resign and then pack up and go back to his hometown, and enjoy the blessings.

Rong sighed softly, if she told Rong Shangshu now that Rong Huanhuan was not dead, but was just tied up, she didn't know if it would be useful. She couldn't find Rong Huanhuan, let alone know who kidnapped her, but Mrs. Rong, the only one who might know or know a little clue, was crazy.

Rong looked at Lu Chengyan lightly, and Lu Chengyan shook his head slightly.

Lu Chengyan's idea was that why bother with it at this time, since Rong Shangshu and Mrs. Rong had already accepted the fact that Rong Huanhuan died, it was not a good thing to persuade them at this time. And they have to stay away from the court, but they suddenly know that Rong Huanhuan is not dead, so Rong Shangshu may stay...... At that time, it is estimated that it will definitely be involved in the power struggle, and the entire Rong Mansion will be involved at that time, and it will not end well.

It's better for him and Rong Qing to find it by themselves, and after finding it, just send it back to his father-in-law's hometown, why let them worry now.

Rong Shangshu drank a cup of tea a little, and after a brief chat with Rong and Lu Chengyan, he was about to leave, and now the entire Rong Mansion has to be sorted out, and it will take some time.

Before leaving, Rong Shangshu suddenly looked at Lu Chengyan and said: "The position of the prince is gone, which is actually a good thing, otherwise it will be difficult to get out if you are involved." The two of you live well and are content. ”

Lu Chengyan nodded yes.

Lu Chengyan and Rong gently sent Rong Shangshu out of the door in person, and after seeing him get into the carriage, they turned around and went back to Lu's mansion.

"My dad probably saw through it and figured it out." Rong said softly, after all, Rong Shangshu has been in officialdom for so many years, and he has seen all kinds of darkness. Besides, he doesn't have a son, so naturally he doesn't need to seek any position for his heir, since he sees that the court is going to be in chaos, it is also a good thing to leave in time.

Lu Chengyan nodded, so Rong Shangshu said that it was a good thing that the position of the prince was gone, otherwise, if the title was still there, the prince could raise some guards, and this guard was usually nothing, but if Kyoto was in chaos one day, it could be regarded as a force that could be put into use immediately.

Rong gently found Uncle Fu, and then opened the boxes one by one, which contained tightly wrapped porcelain, famous paintings, some gold and silverware, and even some jewelry from his daughter's family. Zero-sum sum up, estimated to be expensive.

Uncle Fu said very happily: "These porcelains can decorate some places, as for these paintings, please ask the young lady to keep them, the price is expensive, and it is generally best to use them for family heirlooms." ”

After Uncle Fu almost took out all the things in the box, he asked Lu Er and began to carefully organize them one by one. The famous paintings and everything were put away by Lu Chengyan, and the jewelry or something was directly moved to Rong Qing's room.

Five days later.

Lu Chengyan and Rong gently came to the city gate to see Rong Shangshu leave, Mrs. Rong had already fallen asleep after drinking the medicine, and was waiting for the old lady by her side.

"Dad, take care." Rong said softly.

"Let's go back." Rong Shangshu simply waved his hand and let the horse steward in front of him hurry.

Steward Ma nodded slightly to Rong, and then drove the carriage, commanded the servants to hurry, and the group left Kyoto in a mighty manner.

"Before leaving, I didn't give my father-in-law any money, and he will have to spend everything after he returns to his hometown." Lu Chengyan looked at the shadow of the carriage in the distance, a little annoyed.

Rong smiled lightly: "My father is not short of money, although my mother has a bad temper, but she has a set of business." In the first place, my dowry was deducted in order to add a few more shops...... Now there's nothing to be nostalgic about in Kyoto.,All the shops have been sold.,There's also this.,Dad asked me to give it to you.。 Rong said softly and handed a stack of papers to Lu Chengyan.

Lu Chengyan was taken aback after opening it and said, "The title deed of Rongfu? ”

"Dad said that he knew that you were looking for the address of the talent center, but there was no suitable one, and it happened that he was about to leave, and it was useless for the Rong Mansion to be empty, and there was a dead person, so it was better to give it to you directly." Rong said softly.

Lu Chengyan put away the title deed and said seriously: "If you are empty in the future, you must go to your father-in-law's hometown in person to thank your father-in-law." ”

Rong smiled lightly and said: "There is a place, but the whole still needs to be redecorated, some places are going to be smashed, and then expanded...... After all, I have cooperated many times, but this renovation is not small, and the price is estimated to be not low. ”

Lu Chengyan sighed suddenly and said, "It's a pity." ”

"What's the pity?" Rong asked softly.

"I asked my dad for less money last time, and this renovation is estimated to be a lot." Lu Chengyan regretted it a little, he knew that if he wanted more, his mother's dowry would be worth it.

Rong listened lightly, and suddenly laughed, her scumbag father-in-law, it is estimated that he can't pick a penny anyway.

"Rongfu is well maintained, but it is not suitable for a talent center, if you find Liu Gong, you should be able to save a lot of money, and ...... Our shop has started to make a profit, and the turnover has been quite considerable these days, so it's not a problem. Rong said softly.

Lu Chengyan took Rong Qing's hand and said, "Gently, you wait, I will definitely show you." ”

"Okay." Rong said softly.
