Chapter 220: The Mysterious Old Man
When Luo Shangshu received the news and hurried to the door, the carriage of Luo Qingqian's family had slowly left Luofu, and the onlookers not far away looked at the Gaomen compound of Luofu and pointed and whispered.
Luo Shangshu didn't wrinkle, and drank: "Close the door." ”
It was precisely because of this that he didn't see Luo Qingqian's horse behind them, and Mu Yubin and the others were still behind.
You Shi looked at the closed door and stopped talking to Luo Shangshu. She really wasn't sure if the previous Luo Qingqian's family's party at the door would have any impact on Luofu.
Although Luo Shangshu was also a little worried, he didn't take it to heart when he thought that this matter was always the fault of the four rooms first, and the separation of large families abounded.
However, this is often the case, and the more small details you overlook, the more likely it is to become a big hole.
Luo Qingqian and Guo Shi, who entered the carriage, had already put on a sad face. Luo Qingqian even changed to a relaxed smile.
Although Guo's face was still not good-looking, he didn't see the heaviness just now. She looked at her daughter and said, "Qingqian, do you think we are so good?" ”
Luo Qingqian smiled slightly: "Mother, what is this." They're a lot harder than we are. Why do you think someone came to the door yesterday to make trouble? ”
"They sent someone there yesterday? They already knew that the shopkeeper was you? ”
"I guess I know a little bit. I didn't deliberately hide the men's clothing when I went out on weekdays, and if I had the heart, I would have known it a long time ago. ”
Guo Shi said angrily: "If this is the case, their calculations are too vicious. ”
If you didn't know that Luo Qingqian had been disguising herself as a man to do things, it would be good to say, but if she had known it a long time ago, it would have been despicable to use this as an excuse.
Luo Qingqian smiled indifferently: "Mother, don't worry, I'm going to let them eat the consequences this time." The Luo family attaches so much importance to face, this time they have to lose face in the imperial capital. ”
Guo Shi thought about it and said, "I really wanted to see Mu Gongzi just now." ”
Luo Qingqian nodded and said, "Well, he's following us now." ”
"Why is it so coincidental that he is passing by?" Guo muttered.
"Mother," Luo Qingqian said softly, "It's not a coincidence, I arranged it." ”
Guo raised his eyes and looked at his daughter in confusion.
Luo Qing smiled faintly and said, "This kind of thing must be witnessed by someone of weight." ”
Luo Qingqian spoke, looking at the outside separated by a curtain.
Outside the carriage, several people who had been with Mu Yubin before had already left together, leaving only Mu Yubin to follow on horseback.
Luo Yunfeng had already discovered Mu Yubin, and he also got out of the carriage, took the reins of a horse from the hands of the people behind him, and rode the horse behind Mu Yubin.
"Mu Shao, why are you here?" Luo Yunfeng's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked tired.
Looking at Luo Yunfeng's appearance, Mu Yubin sighed slightly in his heart, and said slowly: "Today is just a coincidence." He paused and said, "You don't know anything about the separation?" ”
When Luo Yunfeng heard this, his teeth clenched, and he shook his head indignantly: "Who would have thought of a huge Shangshu Mansion, saying that if you divide the family, you will divide the family." Besides, Mu Shao, you also saw it, saying that it was a separation, but only the four of us came out of Luofu. ”
When he said this, he raised his hand and wiped his face: "This is not an obvious ......" sweep our four rooms out of the house!
The last sentence Luo Yunfeng didn't say, and he didn't have to say it.
Anyone who sees it today will understand the purpose of Luofu.
Mu Yubin comforted: "You don't have to be anxious. Separation today is not necessarily a bad thing. ”
"But they just took advantage of my absence in the house to blatantly bully my mother and my sister!"
Luo Yunfeng said, his eyes looking even redder.
Mu Yubin looked at him and said, "If you want your mother and your sister not to be bullied, you have to straighten your waist and support this family." I know you've been working hard, but after all, the Ministry of Rites is your uncle's territory, are you sure you will continue to stay in the Ministry of Rites after this time? ”
Luo Yunfeng lowered his eyes for a while, and said with a cold smile: "Why am I leaving?" My uncle can do it, and others can do it! ”
Mu Yubin glanced at Luo Yunfeng with some surprise.
All along, Luo Yunfeng's performance in the Ministry of Rites has been decent, neither particularly outstanding, nor can he find any faults.
In addition, because of protecting his sister Luo Qingqian, Luo Yunfeng also had disputes with others, and his career was not smooth sailing.
But just like this, with the pressure of the eldest uncle and some jealous people watching, Luo Yunfeng can still gain a firm foothold in the Ministry of Rites.
Thinking back now, Mu Yubin suddenly felt that the two brothers and sisters in the fourth room of Luofu were not fuel-efficient lamps.
Mu Yubin coughed lightly and changed the subject: "Do you know where this is going?" ”
Luo Yunfeng suppressed the resentment in his heart, nodded and said, "This direction must be going to our Luo family's old house." ”
"The Luo family still has an old mansion?" Mu Yubin didn't know this.
And because Luo Yunfeng is older, he still knows some things about the Luo family. While the two were walking, Luo Yunfeng told Mu Yubin the origin of the old mansion.
The group soon arrived in the south of the city, and several elderly subordinates immediately inquired in front. Sure enough, after turning a few streets, a house that looked a little dilapidated appeared in the eyes of everyone.
The red paint on the door of the house has been mottled and stale under the erosion of wind and rain, and the two stone lions standing at the door can still see the majesty of the year.
There is still a plaque on the lintel of the house that reads Luofu, but the plaque also looks very old, as if it is about to disperse when the wind blows.
But even with such a dilapidated house, the bluestone road at the door has been cleaned cleanly, and there is no other lonely house at the door of the barren grass reborn and garbage everywhere.
After the carriage stopped, Luo Qingqian and Guo got out of the car and came to the door of the old mansion.
Luo Yunfeng and Mu Yubin also followed.
Seeing Mu Yubin, Luo Qingqian's eyes crossed a slight fluctuation.
She was using Mu Yubin, and she also believed that with Mu Yubin's cleverness, she had already known her intentions.
But he still followed, and the gaze that looked at her was no different from the past, which made Luo Qingqian's heart even more uncomfortable.
Mu Yubin first saluted Guo's family, and Guo's said: "Today's incident made Young Master Mu see a joke, I'm really sorry." Don't delay your business. ”
Mu Yubin hurriedly said: "Auntie, you are too outward. Now that I've moved out, it's free. In such a hurry today, it is estimated that there will be insufficient manpower, let's go to the yard first, and I will take a look to find some manpower to help. ”
Guo Shi hurriedly thanked him.
As he spoke, someone had already stepped forward to break the lock on the door.
"Stop! Who are you? How to open the door of someone else's house casually! ”
Suddenly, an old voice came from behind everyone.
Everyone looked back, but it was a rickety old man with a broom in his hand.
The old man looked to be too old, his hair and beard were all white, his face was even more furrowed, and only a pair of eyes revealed the essence and light that did not match his age, and he was staring at everyone for a moment.
Luo Yunfeng took a step forward and saluted the old man: "Old man, we are the new owner of this family, and you are ......."
I have to say that Luo Yunfeng's brain turned very fast today, and he quickly noticed the difference between this old man.
The old man's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "New master? Did you buy this house? ”
It stands to reason that moving to this house has nothing to do with this old man, but looking at the old man holding a broom in his hand, and then thinking of the cleanliness of the old house, Luo Yunfeng, Luo Qingqian and others agreed that this old man did not seem to be simple.
This time, Luo Qing said softly: "Old man, we didn't buy this mansion. This is our house. ”
The old man was stunned, and suddenly said, "You are the Luo family?" ”
"Yes."
"How many rooms does the Luo family have?"
Luo Qing blinked lightly and said, "Four rooms." ”
The old man's hands trembled when he heard this, his lips trembled, and he looked at Luo Qingqian and said, "Your father is Luo Chengzhi?" ”
Luo Qing nodded lightly.
"So you're going to live here permanently?" The old man looked at the carriages and asked in a trembling voice.
Luo Qingqian smiled slightly: "Luofu has split up, and this will be our yard from now on." ”
When the old man heard this, he suddenly laughed, and said with relief: "Finally let me wait!" Ok, good, good! ”
