218 Chapter 218 Gathering

"Xiang'er, do you know how your second aunt saw that you are Sanniang's descendant?" Mrs. Li and Lu Xiang'er had breakfast, and then sat in the courtyard, feeling the warm sunshine.

At this time, it is from spring to summer, the sun is not very strong, and it is very comfortable to shine on people's bodies. Even after another night's rest, Lu Xianger still felt a little tired, so she didn't go out to visit Dengzhou, but stayed at home to bask in the sun. Of course, Lu Xianger really wanted to know about her grandmother from the eldest lady.

Listening to Mrs. Li's questioning, Lu Xiang'er thought about the scene when she first met Mrs. Li, and said hesitantly: "When the second aunt first saw me, she was a little confused. After that, when I was sitting in the restaurant, she kept looking at me with a very strange look in her eyes. But after seeing Sister Xia of the Qing Dynasty, that is, her cousin who whispered, her expression changed greatly, and then she left. ”

Mrs. Li smiled slightly, picked up the osmanthus cake on the table, and said softly: "Master, she has only one habit since she was a child. I like to eat osmanthus cake very much, but I don't like the almonds and walnuts in it at all. Always spit it all out, take another sip of tea, and eat the next piece. ”

'Ah-' Lu Xiang'er looked at the osmanthus cake in her hand, then at the slag on the stone table, and half a cup of tea, a little dumbfounded. In her previous life, Lu Xianger didn't hate these dried fruits. But in this life, just when eating osmanthus cakes, Lu Xianger always felt that the taste of these dried fruits was weird, so she spit it out. I didn't expect that this habit of eating osmanthus cake would also be inherited.

"It was also because he saw this that my father went to the Guogong Mansion in person and asked Mrs. Song about your family. Then, he sent people south to Qianzhou to visit the news of the Lu family. Mrs. Li thought of Li Xingzhou's expression at that time, and sighed softly.

Regarding the matter of going south, Lu Xianger knew that it was not when she heard the conversation between Li Luo and his wife and Li Xingzhou that day. If it hadn't been overheard that day, Lu Xiang'er was sure that Li Xingzhou's family would definitely hide this matter and not let her know.

The two were chatting, and Li Wenhao walked in briskly with a sweat. Seeing Lu Xiang'er, his eyes suddenly lit up, and the smile on his face was unusually bright. A few steps in front of Lu Xiang'er and Mrs. Li, Li Wenhao first gave a salute to Mrs. Li, and then smiled at Lu Xiang'er: "Sister, my brother was looking for you, but I didn't expect you to be in the yard, what a coincidence." ”

Lu Xianger and Mrs. Li glanced at each other, and they both felt that Li Wenhao was a little 'courteous'. Mrs. Li, who knew Li Wenhao better, glanced him up and down, and said with a smile: "It's the first time I've seen Wenhao so polite, but do you have something to ask Xiang'er?" ”

"Auntie, can you not be so smart, my nephew doesn't dare to walk around in front of you." Li Wenhao took the tea handed by Yahuan, sat opposite Lu Xiang'er, and said haha to Mrs. Li.

Seeing that Li Wenhao did not deny it, Lu Xiang'er asked: "Xiang'er just came to Dengzhou, I don't know what my cousin wants to use Xiang'er?" ”

"Isn't that soju?" Li Wenhao drank half a cup of tea to quench his thirst, and while taking off his helmet, he said that there was a liquor shop in Dengzhou that wanted to buy 'soju craft'.

Speaking of which, most of the main business objects of several wineries in Dengzhou are soldiers stationed at the border gates. Li Wenhao is in charge of procurement, and he is very familiar with the owners of these wineries. Lu Xiang'er came to Dengzhou and brought soju, Li Wenhao drank it refreshed, and his mouth was much faster. In less than half a day, the owners of several wineries found Li Wenhao and wanted to 'chat' with Lu Xianger through him.

Shochu spread in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and in less than half a year, the owners of these wineries had heard about it. They also have to go to Jingshi and buy 'shochu craft' with Piaoxiang Distillery. It is not very close to Jingshi from Dengzhou, and there are always things that cannot be left in the winery here. During this time, several bosses just had some time and were ready to go to Beijing. Unexpectedly, Lu Xiang'er came to Dengzhou, which was a happy event for them, and they couldn't let go of this opportunity.

After hearing this, Lu Xiang'er suddenly remembered the trading day on the fifteenth day of every month in Dengzhou, so she nodded: "Oh, although the winery has been handed over to my brother, it is a good choice to bring soju to Dengzhou." ”

"Not really. Since the 'family group' lived in Dengzhou for a day, there were many people outside the customs when the last trading day was cleared. Li Wenhao looked at Lu Xiang'er with expectations in his eyes.

In fact, Li Wenhao did this not just for himself, he could drink the soju he wanted. As I said before, there are many soldiers in the frontier. They have been here for a long time, and there is no entertainment at any time, so they can only sit and drink together while they are resting. Since drinking the soju that Li Feng brought back, when anyone drinks the turbid rice wine again, it is almost like drinking water. Oh no, it's much worse than water. Therefore, when the owners of those wineries talked to Li Wenhao, Li Wenhao was moved.

Finding that Lu Xiang'er was thinking, Li Wenhao said again: "Xiang'er, don't worry. What about other wineries, how are these wineries. If they dare to deceive you, my brother will definitely lead someone to smash their shop and get justice for you. ”

"Don't talk big, if you let your uncle know, you will have to be beaten again." Mrs. Li also understood Li Wenhao's purpose, but it was different from what he said, so she gave him a blank look. And Lu Xiang'er at this time already had a simple plan in her heart.

Finding that Li Wenhao was snorting again, Lu Xiang'er smiled and said, "Okay, cousin, I already know about this." Once I've written a charter, it's up to you to negotiate with the owners of the wineries. Well, I'm not going to show up. ”

"Okay, Xiang'er agreed, I'll go talk back to them." Li Wenhao waited for Lu Xiang'er to finish speaking, then put on his helmet and walked out of the courtyard like the wind. But without blinking, he walked back quickly. Patting his head, Li Wenhao hurriedly said: "Xiang'er, I'll go back as soon as I go, don't go out." Later, I'll take you around the city, and there are a few interesting shops that you'll like. ”

"Remember, wait until I get back." Li Wenhao left again in a hurry, which made Lu Yun and Lu Wei, who had just come behind Lu Xiang'er, couldn't help but bow their heads and laugh for a while.

Mrs. Li didn't expect Li Wenhao to say such a thing after returning, so she was stunned for a moment before she smiled and said, "Originally, I was going to take you around." Since Wen Hao mentioned it first, let him greet Xiang'er you, I just happened to go to the barracks to have a look. ”

"Since the eldest aunt has something to do, she doesn't have to pay attention to Xiang'er. Xiang'er treats this place as her own home, and she will not be restrained. Compared with Second Mrs. Li, Mrs. Li is much closer to Lu Xiang'er, and Lu Xiang'er feels that Mrs. Li's love for her is not a little fake.

Mrs. Li also saw Lu Xiang'er's thoughts, so she said a few more words to her before leaving the Li Mansion. And Lu Xiang'er knew that she would have to go out later, so she returned to her yard and changed her clothes. When she and the two maids came out of the courtyard, Li Wenhao and Huo Bao, who had also changed into civilian clothes, were sitting in the courtyard, seemingly waiting for Lu Xiang'er.

When Lu Xiang'er saw the two of them, she realized that she had changed her clothes, and she was a little embarrassed that it took so long. Li Wenhao waved his hand and said disappreciably: "Xiang'er doesn't have to care too much. Speaking of which, among the little ladies I know, you and Chaoxia have the shortest time to change clothes. By the way, you little ladies seem to like beautiful clothes, and my cousin will take you to the new shops later. I heard that the clothes inside are very beautiful. ”

"Then thank you cousin, let's go out." When Lu Xiang'er was changing clothes just now, she had already heard the news from Luwei, and she really wanted to see the style of Chenzhou City here.

Seeing this, Li Wenhao walked out of the Li Mansion with Huo Bao in front, and at the gate of the mansion, the carriage was ready. After Lu Xiang'er and the two maids got into the carriage, Li Wenhao sent the coachman, sat outside the carriage with Huo Bao, and began to drive the horse.

"Xiang'er, let's go directly to the shop in the north of the city to see the clothes, then go to the west of the city, and finally return to the restaurant near here, I invite you to eat Dengzhou's special ......" Li Wenhao was in a very good mood, and after getting up from the carriage, he didn't stop talking. Even Huo Bao was a little uncomfortable, looking at Li Wenhao with a very strange eye.

Lu Xianger liked Li Wenhao very much at this time, because it could prove that he was very happy here. When listening to Li Wenhao's introduction, Lu Xianger listened very carefully, and asked from time to time, and the two talked really speculatively. Maybe it's also because of family affection that Lu Xianger and Li Wenhao will let go a little more.

Lu Xianger, who had just arrived in Dengzhou, under the guidance of Li Wenhao, finally appreciated the style of Han people and foreigners living together. In less than half a day, she fell in love with Dengzhou, which was more open than Beijing. When she returned to Li's Mansion, Lu Xiang'er's carriage was full of food, play, clothing, and useful things, which could be said to be a full load.

Li Wenhao, who accompanied him throughout the process, was a little ashamed. He originally wanted to give Lu Xianger money, how to say that he is also an elder brother. But Lu Xiang'er didn't let it, and seeing that Lu Xiang'er bought so many things, Li Wenhao really didn't dare to speak. In that carriage, Li Wenhao's annual income is not enough.

sighed in his heart that Lu Xiang'er was really rich, Huo Qingsong was married to a 'treasure', but Li Wenhao suddenly discovered Huo Bao's snickering appearance. Suddenly, Li Wenhao raised his eyebrows and said fiercely: "Tell you, you are not allowed to tell others about today's incident, otherwise you will ......."

"Otherwise? What do you want to do to my people? The sudden sound made Lu Xiang'er in the carriage instantly stiffen and looked at the gate of the Li Mansion.

I saw a tall figure striding out of the mansion gate, his armor covered with dust. has a somewhat embarrassed appearance, but it can't stop its handsome appearance and cold expression. He walked to the carriage in a few steps, looked straight at Lu Xiang'er, and said calmly: "I'm back from Gaochang......
