Chapter 187: The Mystery of Origin
"A few of us are women, so it's easier to go in and talk." When she pulled Lu Xiaowan, she could feel Lu Xiaowan's resistance.
Lu Xiaowan also didn't like others to force herself, and every sentence she said was something she didn't want to hear, silently took her hand away, found a few maids and took the reward money and sent it over.
"Second brother, do you want to invite the teachers in the academy to come over, today is also a happy event."
I'm afraid that the teachers in the academy still don't know anything, so I can single them out and let them know about it, so that they can suppress this group of people, and look at the way they drink here, it is clear that they are not rough people, why this is the case, it has become a problem.
Where could Lu Erfa think that there was a problem with people, and he was stunned by them, only to remember that his division commander didn't know anything, and he had to have a reason to be an official.
"Little sister is right, you see I forgot about it."
didn't let anyone invite him, Lu Erfa was about to go over, but was stopped by the woman, saying that it was not appropriate for the guest to leave, and he didn't want Lu Xiaowan to get involved.
"Girl, I'm a businessman, and the people I see in the future are all businessmen, so don't worry about me showing up, today's occasion is not suitable for you, it's better to leave early."
Maybe there were some businessmen in the words, the girl's face turned red, and the handkerchief she was holding was stirred up, and the maid seemed to see her young lady's discomfort, and she took something and planned to leave, thinking that Lu Xiaowan would apologize, but she saw Lu Xiaowan's face cold.
A few maids also saw that something was wrong with their young lady, and ordered someone to lead out the carriage and horse, intending to send someone away, Lu Sande was calm at the moment, sent people to the door, said a few good words, and still felt a little inappropriate, secretly found someone, and followed all the way for fear that something would happen.
"A few people, let's have some tea here, things haven't been done well, I'm afraid I won't be able to recover my life when I go back."
Before leaving, Lu Xiaowan looked at the gesture of a person holding a cup, and knew that the other party was not simple, and it seemed that there was no good thing to come here and pretend to be a poor and vulgar man.
Where did Lu Sande know what his little sister was angry about, and when he caught up and was about to coax, he found that his little sister was writing something.
"Those people outside must not be offended, otherwise it will be difficult for the second brother to be an official in the future." Lu Sande is also a person who has seen high-ranking officials and nobles, how can he not know that there is a problem with that group of people, but it is just difficult to point it out.
"I can't say it, it doesn't mean that I can't do it, you send some news to the capital, that cousin sent it to Ningfu, and then said to the outside world that I am in poor health and can't take over the shop for the time being, see what kind of attitude Qingfeng Lou has, if it is someone they sent, I think I will save it tonight to try, if it is not them, it is even more guarded against from the capital."
Xue Muyan is credible, he won't do anything to hurt himself, but the people around him have to be a different matter, according to reason, what they are thinking about is how to make Xue Muyan do a good job, and he will become a roadblocker.
"Do you want to guard against coming from the capital? I think this girl should be from the capital, she hasn't seen the officials, will we think about it too much. "Elegant manners, cautious work, after coming in, you can see the surroundings clearly, Lu Sande doesn't know the identity of the other party in his heart.
When he spoke just now, the other party's accent didn't look like it was from Fucheng, nor like it was from the capital, Lu Xiaowan could feel the awkwardness of them pretending to be rude, Allure would not be stupid enough to let such a person come over and act with him.
"It's still possible to come from Fucheng, I can feel that they have been hiding their accents, second brother, you must remember that from the moment I come back, we have no one to trust."
Lu Xiaowan felt that they were going to make a move, but she was not ready, and the silver on her body could not completely block things.
There was still some chaos outside, Qin Cuihua simply didn't do anything, just watched outside, one of them made her feel a little problematic, it seemed that she had seen it somewhere, as for the other five big and three coarse, she felt sorry for her own things.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what else do you want to eat, the old woman will let people prepare."
There was something wrong with the face of the servant, one of them was even more obvious, and the other was a little strange, since Qin Cuihua saw it, it was impossible to let it go, so she took out one and put it on the table.
"Old lady doesn't need to, let's just eat these."
Lu Xiaowan just looked at it in the room, the person's appearance was extremely elegant, and the sense of power in his hand was also insufficient, and then he looked at his face that was obviously dark and abnormal, and there was a loss.
"That's embarrassing, my family is not good, I still have food, and I have already asked people to prepare it."
With black powder on her face, she came over to tell herself this, Qin Cuihua smiled in her heart, she couldn't let them go if she was so fast, and she still needed her daughter to do the rest.
"Mother, I think that a few of the eldest brothers are tired, so I might as well let them rest for a while, let's find a few people to cook some delicious food, and then make some real food for them at noon."
Qin Cuihua pursed her lips and walked to the room, thinking about the jade pendant in her hand, guessing that they were not here for her second son, but for her daughter, just like the one who came that morning.
The furnishings in the room were still the same as before, and Lu Sande saw his mother's thoughtful appearance, guessing that today's things were not simple.
"Mother, when you came over today, I saw that a few of the family next door had moved away, I don't know who said it, as for the matter of Qingfeng Building, I want to see the girl of Allure, if there is a day for me."
"Third brother, you remember that this is your home, it doesn't matter what Allure says, what I drink from my mother is the most important thing, and there is one more thing, there are more silver taels at home now, I want to transfer some, you will secretly take your mother to Jiangnan in a few days."
It's not okay if people come to the door and don't go out to deal with it, a few people in the capital have made a move, so the Ning family can't escape from it, and the sadness lies in the friendship between himself and Xin'er, and this time I'm afraid it will be tossed away.
"You let us leave, what about you and the second brother?"
"We won't necessarily go to the capital, I don't know how many things are waiting for us along the way, you go with us, my second brother and I can't protect you."
The things that have been prepared a long time ago will not be given up because of anyone's opposition, Lu Xiaowan is not asking for their consent at all, and when they fall asleep tonight, someone will secretly take them away.
Although there is some unclear relationship between Lu Sande and Allure, it does not affect his feelings for his family, Lu Xiaowan is clearly prepared to take Lu Erfa to the capital to break through, and if he is not careful, he will lose his life.
"Don't think about it, my second brother and I won't agree, you must know that the outside of the capital are all the prince's people, and Xue Muyan is now the battle of the trapped beasts, so he can't go." When Lu Xiaowan didn't come back, Lu Sande secretly checked everything, and even found some people to go to the capital to find out before coming back.
She doesn't want to go back, the silver in her hand is enough to live the rest of her life, and the one in the capital can also put it down, but the trade route can't be lost, once the government takes over, then Allure will definitely find a way to send a message to the prince, and it is likely that she will not be able to keep it when the time comes.
"I'm not unprepared, it's impossible to leave the town, I'm going to go to Qingyang County to find Mr. Ning's students, and finalize the matter of the trade route, and the future tolls and bridge tolls will be paid by the government, and finally the caravan will be protected by the people of the government."
"You are wishful thinking, the government will let you take the lead? The prince's people are eyeing the money village in Jiangnan, not to mention a way to make money! Lu Sande didn't say that he didn't know about trade routes, but he definitely didn't have a good impression of the people in the government, and he was angry when he remembered that he was blackmailed by them again and again.
Now saying this is just waiting for a quarrel, and Lu Xiaowan has no other way, her mother and third brother have no chance to enter it for the time being, and it is a good choice to leave as soon as possible.
"Second brother, you don't have a choice about the business route, the second brother can't go to the capital alone, so the only way to do this is for me and the second brother to go to the capital together."
He couldn't stop the things that had been arranged, he sat there alone and sighed, and for the first time he felt helpless, his sister was so disobedient.
Qin Cuihua stood aside and pondered what her daughter said, knowing that she couldn't become a burden to her daughter, and it might be difficult to come back if she went to Jiangnan.
"Go and help your second brother, I'll arrange it."
Qin Cuihua hadn't seen Lu Xiaowan for many years, and after smoothing her brows, she pulled her to sit on the edge of the bed and handed her the jade pendant in her hand, the dark lines on it were a little luxurious.
"Mother, where did you get the jade pendant from!"
"Your parents entrusted it to me, I used to lie to myself that you were my biological daughter, until recently I saw more and more old people, their expressions left some marks in my heart are really uncomfortable, I saw the grandmother just now, she was still old at that time, not as gentle as now."
took a bag from the cabinet in Lu Xiaowan's room, opened it and opened it were all children's clothes, and a few of them were hidden with jade pendants and gold locks.
"You are not a citizen of the Great Zhou, your mother and father are the most noble people in the neighboring country, they have never stopped looking for you, I didn't send you out because I didn't dare."
Lu Xiaowan frowned, did things sound so terrifying back then? Could it be that the person that the old lady of the Chen family let herself see that day was really her grandmother?
"Mother, I know a little bit about what you said, the people in the palace want me to be a pawn, and if you hand me over, it is equivalent to sending me to death."
The crying smile was very inappropriate on Qin Cuihua's face, and Lu Xiaowan had the impression that she had always been a hearty woman.
"Not only that, your grandmother is also the princess of Da Zhou, and the first emperor was still good to her when he was alive, but then I didn't know."
Lu Xiaowan didn't break it, the first emperor just recognized a clan girl as his daughter for the sake of the country's tranquility.
