Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of the concubine!

Bai Zhi thinks that she has been in a lot of official mansions, with carved railings and jade masonry, rockeries and flowing water, rich and prosperous, and finally has a little knowledge, but this time it is really an eye-opener, no, it should be an eye-hurt.

She had never seen such a poor county office, and the gate suddenly made an old sound, as if it would fall down at the next moment. As soon as she entered, she almost twisted her foot, because there was a hole in the bluestone floor of the door. When you enter the backyard, it is bare, and occasionally you can see a few listless trees, apparently no one usually takes care of them, and the branches grow irregularly.

The backyard is not big or small, it is the courtyard of Sanjin, the house is obviously in disrepair, the glazed tiles of the roof are becoming more and more dim in the sun, and the clothes of the people are also uniform gray tones, one by one lowers their heads, it seems that they have no spirit, and the little guy who takes them inside, looks lazy, and seems to be able to close their eyes and fall asleep directly in the next moment.

Bai Zhi was surprised and didn't know what to say, she secretly pulled Lord Lu's sleeve and muttered in a low voice, "Are you sure this is the mansion of Xunyang County, how do I look like an abandoned mansion." ”

Lu Zhiyuan also looked a little helpless, "Who knew that he would still be like this after so many years." ”

After speaking, the little guy led the two to the door of a courtyard, and after sending them to the place, the little guy left, without even making a report.

It's the first time Bai Zhi has been treated like this, and I don't know if this is the right to enter the door or not. There was not even a subordinate guarding the gate at the gate of the courtyard, and there was no one to find a messenger.

Lord Lu's face was also a little stiff, he walked into the door with his hands behind his back, as soon as the two of them entered the door, they heard a bang, and then suddenly a dark figure ran out of the house, jumped out suddenly, startling both of them.

"Ahem, ahem!" The shadow was black at first glance, but it was indeed black on closer inspection.

Bai Zhi was stunned, Lord Lu was also cold, and the black shadow was also stunned.

The courtyard was quiet for a while, and first the black shadow broke the silence, and he greeted Lord Lu very warmly, "Come on, what kind of gifts do you bring?" ”

Before Lord Lu came, he deliberately went to the deli shop in the city and cut five catties of cooked meat, and the black shadow's eyes were glowing when he looked at the meat. As soon as the words fell, he naturally stepped forward and took the meat away.

He really left, took the meat and turned around and left, without the slightest idea that there were still two big living people standing in the courtyard.

"Who is he?" Bai Zhi asked cautiously, except for a pair of eyes that occasionally showed a fine light, he couldn't even see his appearance, and he also lost one of his shoes, looking embarrassed like a beggar.

Lu Zhiyuan came back to his senses at this time, he coughed to hide his gaffe, and then said, "This is Lord Lingteng of Xunyang County." ”

Bai Zhi almost couldn't hold back a burst of laughter, she twitched the corner of her mouth and looked at the unkempt man in front of her, how could she not connect him with the magistrate of a county.

"Don't fool me."

"What did I do with you, I remember this ghost looking like it turned to ashes." Lu Zhiyuan will regret it a little, what did he do and ran to see some old man when he was full, it was really embarrassing to have such an acquaintance.

Bai Zhi believed it at this time, she saw that Lord Lu's face was still a little unsightly, so she comforted, "I heard that some capable people are generally different from ordinary people, I think this Lord Teng must be such a strange person." ”

The corners of Lu Zhiyuan's mouth twitched a few times, and he laughed dryly twice, "You are really mistaken, he is really not that kind of strange person." He has been an unlearned person since he was a child. ”

Bai Zhi said with a smile, "If you really don't learn and don't know how to do it, how can you do it, the county master." ”

"His family used to have money to buy an official." After Lu Zhiyuan finished speaking, he walked into the house, leaving Bai Zhi alone in the wind.

Soon there was a shout from the kitchen, "What are you doing to rob my meat?" ”

"Bring me my good wine!"

Bai Zhi rubbed her eyebrows, and just wanted to follow her into the door to take a look, when someone behind her called her, "This lady is a lady far away." ”

The woman's voice was soft, like a spring breeze, very good.

Bai Zhi couldn't help but look back, and saw a woman behind her, less than thirty years old, combing a woman's hair in a bun, dressed plainly, and with shallow dimples on her cheeks when she smiled.

Bai Zhi hurriedly bowed and returned the salute, and said with a smile, "I am Bai Zhi, the concubine of Lord Lu." Who are you? ”

The woman smiled, first looked her up and down, and then made a brief introduction, and Bai Zhi knew that she was Teng Luo, the sister of Lord Teng.

Seeing that Bai Zhi was the only one in the courtyard and not seeing Lord Lu, Du asked, "Didn't Zhiyuan come?" ”

Bai Zhi felt that her question was very interesting, and it sounded like she was very familiar with Lord Lu, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the location of the kitchen and said, "Lord He Teng is inside." ”

At the same time, the shouts of Master Teng sounded in the kitchen again, "The surname is Lu, you have stolen all my wine." ”

As the words fell, a long, slender figure came out of the kitchen and a dark shadow followed closely behind him, and the two almost walked out of the kitchen together.

Teng Luo's face was distracted for a moment, she subconsciously bit her lip, and then reluctantly smiled, "You're here." ”

Lu Zhiyuan noticed the woman standing in the courtyard at this time, his eyes were a little puzzled at first, and after looking at it for a while, he became a little surprised, "Sister Teng, you are also there." ”

The Teng family was also one of the few families in the capital a few years ago, but unfortunately it only fell in a few years after the accident, and it was also the Teng family's parents who had already noticed it, and married one of the Teng brothers and sisters in advance, and sent one away in advance, so that they were spared.

Later, although the matter was clarified, a large family said that it was gone, and only a pair of brothers and sisters were left to rebuild, although the court symbolically gave some pensions, but what was the use of that.

Tengda took the silver to find an acquaintance and donated an official, the acquaintance is also a master who specializes in worshipping the high and the low, and when he saw that the Teng family was in decline, he did not lower Tengda in his eyes, and the official given to him was the poorest county in the rich Jiangnan region.

The wealth in the south of the Yangtze River also refers to several different places, among which there are still many people in small cities who are still in a situation where they are not well fed and clothed. Tengda went to such a place, and the seemingly prosperous town was actually very poor.

Fortunately, he is a person who is at peace with what he encounters, and he did not complain when he encountered this kind of thing, but took root here steadily, and it took six years to take root.

Speaking of Lu Zhiyuan and Tengluo, it's not a big deal. It's nothing more than that the goddess has a heart, and King Xiang has no dreams.

When Lu Zhiyuan was young, he was a Yushu Linfeng, handsome and chic, and the whole person was the appearance of a beautiful son, who was very loved by the young ladies in the capital, and many people thought about him as his future husband. This includes Teng Luo, at that time, the Teng family had not had an accident, Teng Luo was everyone's best girl, because of the relationship between his brother Tengda and Lu Zhiyuan, they were also familiar with each other.

At that time, Teng Luo was very longing for Lu Zhiyuan, and often sent Qiubo when he had nothing to do, complaining about his heartfelt feelings and the like. Send a small purse today, and a small handkerchief tomorrow.

It's a pity that Lu Zhiyuan at that time didn't have a clear understanding of emotional matters, he simply felt that he was not good-looking for a woman like a man with a purse and handkerchief, so he bluntly refused, and asked her not to give it away in the future.

At that time, Tengluo was just the time when the girl's heart was budding, and when she was poured down by her sweetheart with cold water, the whole person was cold. Teng Luo has been sulking for several years for this matter, and every time she sees Lu Zhiyuan, she doesn't have a good face, which also makes Lu Zhiyuan feel that Tengda's sister is not easy to get along with, and she always has a cold face as if she owes her money.

Later, before the accident of the Teng family, Teng Luo was hurriedly arranged by his family to marry and went to a far away place, and many years have passed. If it is the love of husband and wife, Teng Luo will not miss Lu Zhiyuan much, but the person Teng Luo married is not a good person, he married Teng Luo when he took a fancy to the Teng family's dowry, and when he married back home, he spoke softly at the beginning, but it didn't take half a year to return to the prototype, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling are all touched.

Teng Luo persuaded several times, but he beat her for several days and couldn't get out of bed, once or twice, she also found a reason to lie to herself, and she couldn't even find a reason after many times. I can only grit my teeth and endure it.

Life is not going well, she sometimes thinks of the time when she was young, and when she thinks about it, she thinks of the person she liked when she was young.

People are always extra tolerant of the things in their memories, just like Tengluo, she may not like Lu Zhiyuan much, but after the veil of memories, everything has a more dreamy taste.

So when she saw Lu Zhiyuan again at this moment, Teng Luo's heart was very excited, so much so that she was too excited and her face was expressionless. This look fell in Lu Zhiyuan's eyes, and he felt that she might not be very kind to see herself after so many years, although Lord Lu didn't know why.

"Hmm." Teng Luo replied with a very cold and hard word.

She was so nervous that she wanted to divert her attention, and it happened that there was a ready-made one in front of her, and she glanced at her brother Tengda, which simply smeared her face.

Teng Luo said angrily, "Big brother, why did you make yourself like this, why don't you hurry up and freshen up." ”

Tengda usually has nothing to be afraid of, but he has been afraid of his sister for a long time, so as soon as Teng Luo opened his mouth, he immediately said, "Let's go, I'll go." ”

After Tengda ran away, Teng Luo looked sideways slightly, and said with a somewhat uncomfortable expression, "I'll go to the kitchen to see if lunch is ready." After she finished speaking, she also left, and there were two more people left in the courtyard, Bai Zhi and Lu Zhiyuan, who were staring at each other.

"I think that Teng girl seems to be interested in you." Bai Zhi said.

Lord Lu shook his head, and his tone of denial was very determined, "This is impossible, you don't know, she didn't look down on me when she was a child." ”

"May I ask you how you can tell?" A woman's intuition is more accurate with each other, especially when facing the same man.
