There was silence in the main hall.

Cheng Yang and Changfeng secretly glanced at their sister's face, and Steward Lu was also a little anxious behind the master, "My lord, didn't we say that we would talk about it in two days?" Why did you explain it all today? ”

Daddy Lu looks like a bachelor.

"Daddy."

"Hey, girl!"

"Is our family out of money?"

"Girl, how can you say that? Dad has a lot of money every month, save some, but he still can't starve. ”

Steward Lu had a bitter face, since he had said this, he simply let it go, "Master, you forgot, your Yulu has already been withdrawn until the year after graduation, and this time you said that you were going to pick up your wife and children, so you took out another three months' Yulu, and it will be used up soon." ”

General Lu waved his hand indifferently, "Hey, it's okay, daughter, son, my father has a knighthood, although it is lower, but it is not worrying to borrow some silver taels, rest assured, you can't eat and drink!" ”

Lu Weimang suddenly felt a little headache, propped one hand on the small table next to the chair, held his forehead, and said weakly, "Steward Lu, you say, what is the situation at home." ”

"Miss, this person is just too kind. He climbed up from the small soldiers all the way, and those brothers who fought together, when they died, he had to give a pension to the family, and if they were disabled, they would always receive help. She is the only one like Madame Bai, but there are some who really can't get by, so they often come to the door to borrow money. It is said that it is borrowing money, but life in Kyoto is not easy, not to mention some orphans and widows, who lack arms and legs, so they only lend out and never return them. There are also New Year's holidays, and the lord has to buy a festival gift and send it over one by one. Therefore, it doesn't matter that the master's family funds have been sent out over the years, and there has been a famine, and there are still people who come to collect debts at the end of last year. Although the master is a general, they don't dare to use any means, but they come to the door every day, which is disgusting enough. ”

As Steward Lu narrated, Cheng Yang and Changfeng looked at each other, Daddy Lu's head became lower and lower, and Lu Weimang's face became more and more ugly.

"Heh, since that's the case, it's better to marry Mrs. Wu in. The general's own sister, presumably with a rich dowry, can fill the bottomless pit in the family. ”

Lu Weimang sneered and said.

This morning, she was still immersed in the life of "clothes to open her mouth", thinking that she could lie down and enjoy it in the future, but she was slapped in the face in the afternoon.

She said, how can there be any pie in the sky, there is a pie can't hit her head, she has never won a prize of more than five yuan, and now once she crosses, the more she lives, the more she goes back, she actually believes that the good thing of clothes and food can fall on her for no reason!

"Changfeng, return your little bow to General Lu, housekeeper, prepare a car for me, I will take my two younger brothers back to Nanyang, the provincial Wu Niangzi dislikes her father and children, and she doesn't want to marry her."

As he spoke, Lu Weimang stood up and walked out, Cheng Yang and Changfeng didn't say a word, and followed out.

"Hey, little ancestor, don't be angry with your father, the general also has no hostess in the family to plan for him, so he has missed the day, and now that the young lady is back, she will definitely be able to live a good life." Miss herself can buy a big house in a few months, now there is a master as a backer, and there is hope for gold and silver! Your father and daughter are together, and a good day is coming soon! ”

Steward Lu hurriedly grabbed the young lady and didn't let her go, and looked back at the old man, "Master, don't be embarrassed at this time, it's all a family, broken bones and tendons." Can she really sell your father to Mrs. Wu? Say something soft. You and Miss have their own strengths, you will be at ease in the yamen in the future, and the house will be handed over to Miss, will you still worry about life in the future? ”

Father Lu Ai Ai walked over and looked at his daughter, "In the future, you will be in charge, and Daddy will listen to you." As long as there is wine and meat every day, and nothing else, Daddy doesn't care about anything. ”

"Don't, I can't help this bottomless pit, you can ask for another master."

Looking at Tsundere's daughter, Lu Qingshan looked at Steward Lu.

Steward Lu received a distress signal and hurriedly matched it, "Miss, don't talk angrily now, let's let it go in the past, what happens in the future, all the young ladies have the final say." ”

Lu Weimang made a fuss, and what he was waiting for was this sentence.

She was worried that Lu Qingshan was a feudal patriarch, but she didn't expect that she was not only easy-going and open-minded, but also had the courage to admit her mistakes and change them when she knew her mistakes, even if her friends were difficult to find such an easy-going person, let alone her parents.

In Lu Weimang's heart, he has long regarded Lu Qingshan as his partner in ancient life, as well as his friend and elder.

"Since you said so, then let's make three chapters of the law!"

It wasn't until late at night that the Lu family had dinner.

The three chapters of Lu Weimang and Daddy Lu's covenant can be summarized in three points: personal freedom, freedom of marriage, and social freedom. Because she doesn't like to socialize, so forget it.

Before going to bed, Lu Weimang took the note signed by Father Lu and snickered, well, a big step towards the goal, which is gratifying.

Early the next morning, Lu Weimang changed his laziness a few days ago and began to get busy.

First of all, it is to audit the accounts.

There must be a specific figure for the amount of money in the house, the amount of money spent each month, the amount of money owed outside, the amount owed by the government, and the amount of money lent out.

There is also the annual festival, and the amount of gifts given out must also be prepared in advance. This is Daddy Lu's insistence, and Lu Weimang does not object.

The housekeeper brought the mountain-like ledger again and again, and Lu Weimang took the pen and paper and began to list the grids.

"Sister, my brother and I will settle accounts with you today. I'll read it to you, and you will count it. ”

Cheng Yang said that he wanted to help, but Lu Weimang waved his hand and rushed to school.

The brothers walked out of the main hall, seeing that Sister A was busy without raising her head, they didn't know what to do, and they felt very down-to-earth.

In Nanyang County, when their rock candy business first started, Sister Ah also settled accounts every day, and she couldn't wait to break it in half and spend it. Although it was very bitter at that time, my heart was steady.

In the past few days, although Sister Ah has been hiding from the brothers and lying down to enjoy it, the brothers have seen Sister A's decadence in their eyes. I always feel that although Sister A looks comfortable, she has nothing in her heart. At this time, Sister Ah cheered up again, and the spirit of the past returned to her, although the brothers felt a little unkind, as if they couldn't see Sister A's leisure, but they did feel more relieved.

The brothers went out to school, Lu Qingshan pretended to be calm and walked to the lobby, looking at his daughter's busy octopus, he couldn't help but clear his throat, "That, I'm going to the yamen, you pay attention to rest." Anyway, the ledger is there, and it will be calculated in one day or two, and there is no difference. ”

Lu Weimang was lazy to distinguish and waved his hand, "You can go and get busy, I have my own measure." ”

Father Lu walked out of the main hall lightly.

Go out and take a figure-eight step.

"Yo, Lao Lu, it looks unusual today, what's good, tell my brother."

On this street, there are low-ranking lords who live in the same way as the Lu family, so everyone is quite familiar with each other, and they speak casually.

"It's not a happy event, it's just a girl's life. There's no way, the girl follows her father, just talented, haha..."

The person next to him scratched his head, feeling that what he said was a bit confusing.

Lu Qingshan didn't care about the others, got on his horse by himself, and walked away with his chest up.

Over the years, the house has been a bad debt, and now it's okay, and we have someone in charge of Lao Lu.

For a whole day, Lu Weimang was cleaning up the ledger, and when the sun was setting, Lu Weimang looked at the numbers in his hand and exhaled lightly.

The most important thing in the past few years is, of course, the money owed to outsiders. If someone comes to the door to ask for an account, Lu Weimang will really explode.

The other is the money owed to the imperial court. As we all know, this is a thunder, and when it's okay, it's fine, but if there's a wind and grass, it will explode.

There is also the need to prepare the money for the next holiday.

However, those are later words, although she has 10,000 taels of Cheng Mo buying a rock candy workshop and more than 1,000 taels of selling a house, which is enough to pay off her debts, but the monthly expenses of the general's mansion, what carriage and horse expenses, the monthly money of the subordinates, the maintenance of the house, and the contacts of people, these are all hard expenses, and it is simply unrealistic to live behind closed doors.

It seems that it is time to find a new entry.

Thinking of starting a new business, Lu Weimang couldn't help but think of rock candy and Cheng Mo.

Forget it, the rock candy workshop will be given to Cheng Mo. I will no longer be contaminated with half a point in the future.

Lu Weimang is this temper, she is very wary of strangers, and the people she doesn't approve of, no matter how long she has been in contact, she can't get close to others. But on the contrary, as long as it is someone she approves, she will deliver it without reservation.

Just like Cheng Mo, she used to treat him as a family member, but he easily discarded his trust.

See you later, it's a strange road. It may be a polite two sentences, but nothing else.

After making up his mind, Lu Weimang decided to go around the streets tomorrow to find inspiration.

Originally, on the day he entered the city, Lu Weimang said that he wanted to settle down and go to that street to have a look, but after being a rice worm for a few days, he put this matter behind him.

packed up all the account books and let Steward Lu put them in his study, and at this time, Father Lu and his two younger brothers went home one after another.

There were no surprises today, and my family had an early meal.

"Girl, how's it going? If it's really hard to get it, don't worry, it's a big deal for Daddy to go to the yamen to withdraw some more money. ”

"What you said is good, how can there be a group like you, for several years? You don't care, rest assured, I have an idea. ”

"Hey, then dad won't worry about it, the family will be handed over to you."

That satisfied look made Chengyang Changfeng snicker.

"What does Sister want to do? Do you need me to help with Changfeng? ”

"No, you can study in peace. Give me a good result at the end of the year, which really makes Sister A happy. ”

The academy here also has exams, and there are many exam subjects, I heard that there is also archery and horseback riding, Lu Weimang thought, if he is a man, although he has been studying for more than ten years, but this kind of academy, Lu Weimang just wants to say, she can!
