Chapter 24: Difficult
"Hey, Weimang, what a coincidence, I ran into it again."
A beautiful young man in a royal blue suit, who didn't know which alley he came from, raised his hand to greet Lu Weimang and the housekeeper, and followed by the imposing escort as always.
"yes, that's a coincidence."
Lu Weimang greeted the young man and glanced at the guards behind him.
If there wasn't a team of people following, she really didn't want to deal with this teenager.
Since the last time, Lu Weimang showed his divine power at the dinner table, and he was entangled by the stunned teenager at the time, every time Lu Weimang took the housekeeper out for a walk, he could meet this young man.
It seems that the guards behind this young man not only look extraordinary, but also have a good hand at finding out the news, and they have all hid in Nancheng, but they still haven't been able to get rid of it.
Lu Weimang, who couldn't bear it anymore, decided that if he had something to say, he still wanted to say directly, "Gongzi Qin, is there something wrong with you?" β
The young man walked side by side with Lu Weimang in a good-natured manner, and replied as he walked, "Didn't you ask you to call me Qin Xuan?" We're all so acquainted, don't be too polite, you see, I call you by your name, right, Weimang. β
Lu Weimang said simply, "Okay, Qin Xuan, do you have something to do today?" If it's okay, please ask first, I still have something to do with the housekeeper. β
The young man seemed to be unable to understand the words, his expression was as usual, and there was a hint of excitement, "I'm fine, you have something to do with you, leave me alone." β
Lu Weimang couldn't help but stop and looked at Qin Xuan, but found that Qin Xuan avoided his gaze, walked directly to the small stall selling masks on the side, picked up a mask of Zhu Bajie, and brought it to his face, "Weimang, do you think this mask looks good?" β
The young man's black brocade-like hair was tied up high, without a crown, only decorated with black brocade, royal blue robe, moon-white inlaid treasure belt, thirteen or fourteen years old was smoking, his body was thin and tall, but his face still had the youth of a young man.
The old aunt in Lu Weimang's heart has a seizure, who can really be angry with a sunny and beautiful boy?
"Alright, stop playing tricks, find a place to sit for a while."
As he spoke, he took the lead and walked forward, found a place facing the street, and sat down to drink tea.
Qin Xuan also naturally followed over and sat opposite Lu Weimang.
"Weiwei, the tea here can quench your thirst, my family has this year's tribute tea, and when we meet tomorrow, I will bring it to you, then the tea is really full of tea fragrance, and the entrance is sweet."
Lu Weimang was helpless, this kid was no longer willing to meet by chance, and even agreed to meet.
"Don't you have to go to school? Have you completed your schoolwork? With such idleness every day, won't the master go to your house to complain? β
The magic weapon to deal with children is to ask him if his homework has been completed, who knows that this Qin Xuan is triumphant, "My homework, my father has already given up, and Mr. does not dare to go to my father to complain, as long as I go out on time every day, go home on time, and don't cause trouble, no one cares." β
Lu Weimang was stunned when he heard this, since Qin Xuan reported his name that day, when he went back, Steward Lu had talked to Lu Weimang, and he could have such an imposing guard, surnamed Qin, should be the third son of Qin Hou.
The Marquis of Qin is high and powerful, and the children in the family are also very promising, the eldest followed his father to fight the world immediately when he was a teenager, and now he is the Holy Commander of the Lang Lieutenant to protect the safety of the imperial city. Not only is the position high, but also the person who is not very trusted cannot hold this official position.
The second son of the Marquis of Qin heard that he had a reputation since he was a child, followed the great Confucianism, and is currently traveling abroad.
Qin Xuan should be the third son of Qin Hou according to his age, it is said that he has followed his mother to various places since he was a child, and he is most favored by Mrs. Qin Hou and the old lady.
Looking at his red lips and white teeth, and his energetic appearance, he is indeed the type that some elderly aunts like.
Lu Weimang restrained his mentality and warned himself that this was ancient times. Modern people may be very naΓ―ve at the age of 30, but in this era, thirteen-year-old teenagers already have their own way of behaving in the world.
So Lu Weimang solemnly looked at Qin Xuan on the other side, talking like an adult.
Although one is ten years old and the other is thirteen years old, there is still baby fat on his face that has not faded.
"Then if you don't go to school, you can find other things to do, why do you keep following me?"
Qin Xuan's face was confused for a moment, "I just can't find something to do, so I want to follow you." I can't compare to my second brother anyway, and I don't have the skills that my eldest brother has practiced in the army since he was a child. My mother always said that I didn't have to suffer like everyone else, just wait to be happy. β
Lu Weimang frowned, although there was some Versailles, but it was indeed true, it was just said by the parents, and it was not good for the child.
Qin Xuan continued, "Some people in the Guozijian who are equivalent to my status, or even inferior to me, recruit cats and dogs to bully people every day, making the Guozijian a miasma, I can't look past it, and I don't want to meddle in things, so I just come out and go around." β
"I went to Danqingfang that day, but it was very boring, who knew that I would meet you, you are obviously younger than me, but you are very powerful. Sometimes I meet people with cheap mouths, or I can only endure and ignore them, or I will have a seizure, which is nothing more than bickering, they always have some crooked reasoning, but they make me angry. It's like you, it's neat and neat, and it's relieving when you look at it. β
Lu Weimang smiled, proud in his heart, and couldn't help but start teaching his experience immediately, "When dealing with a cheap-mouthed person, you can't be serious with him, you can't let him be alone, and you can't quarrel with him." If you are dragged into the strange circle of reasoning and bickering by him, even if what you say makes sense, he is still entangled, in the eyes of outsiders, it is not that he is cheap, but that the two of you are fighting, and he will be lowered in an instant. So in this case, you have to switch the battlefield and kill with one hit. He is cheaper than you, and you are harder than him. Cheap people are generally more cowardly, so even if you can't beat him, you have to teach him a lesson, and it's a big deal to prepare some "hidden weapons" and the like in advance, just to hurt him. After a few times, he sees you and behaves. β
Lu Weimang has completely let himself go since he knew the way the children of authoritative people interact. In the past, there was no way, civilized society, fighting was illegal. But here, in Kyoto, as long as the identity is suppressed, the fight will be fought.
Qin Xuan's eyes lit up when he heard this, "What you said makes sense, I'll give it a try when I go back." β
"Okay, the law doesn't pass on the six ears, don't tell others when you go back that I taught you, you know?"
"Hmm!"
After sending away the little boy Qin, Lu Weimang went shopping, looking for the Lu family's entry.
"Miss, you have been walking from morning to night these days, in fact, let's not worry, don't exhaust yourself."
Steward Lu felt a little sorry for his own miss.
Don't talk about ten-year-old children, even after they become adults, they only care about their own clothes and jewelry, like Miss Weimang, who has to worry about the livelihood of the house at a young age.
In fact, as a powerful person, there are many ways to make money, such as finding a century-old store, providing shelter, extracting dry shares, etc., although his own family does not have such a high status, but he still paints a gourd, and some are easy ways to make money.
But the young lady didn't think about all of them, and only devoted herself to studying legitimate business. And once you decide, you will work hard, keep your eyes on it, and do it wholeheartedly according to your plan, no matter how difficult the road is.
Steward Lu was distressed and proud of Miss, but Lu Weimang didn't care about that, she was only immersed in her own plan, "Steward Lu, if you are tired of walking, rest for a while, after all, you are old, and you can't compare with me, the rising sun." I'm tired for a day, and I'll rest after a sleep, you're tired for a day, and I guess my legs and feet are sore for several days, and I can't slow it down, right? β
Lu Weimang said, his eyes looking to both sides, still immersed in his own thoughts.
The corners of Steward Lu's mouth twitched, his own young lady was good, but she offended people with one mouth. In the future, I have to mention to the general, there are some etiquette rules that should be learned, after all, when I am older, when I go out as a guest, I am surrounded by high-ranking women, and I can't come by temperament like this.
Lu Weimang didn't know that his housekeeper secretly wanted to sue himself and take a small class, so he only concentrated on immersing himself in his own world.
She always felt as if she had some vague thoughts, but there was a window paper that gave her a headache.
"Girl, how about going out today, do you have some clues?"
In the evening, the family had dinner in the main hall, and General Lu asked while serving vegetables to his daughter.
Lu Weimang said honestly, "It's a little vague, but it's still a little bit brighter." β
"Don't worry, don't you still have money at home? Take your time. β
Lu Weimang glared at his father. He also said that the family's money was the money from the sale of his own house. Fortunately, he didn't show the 10,000 taels of silver tickets given by Cheng Mo, if he let Daddy Lu know that he had a huge amount of money, maybe he wouldn't let Lu Weimang go out to find the entry. In his heart, he can spend some money, let alone so much money.
But in Lu Weimang's heart, as long as there is no entry in the family, sooner or later he will still sit and eat empty.
And this ten thousand taels, Lu Weimang easily didn't want to use it.
After eating, Lu Weimang returned to his small courtyard and took a bath while thinking hard about countermeasures.
Here, General Lu found a housekeeper and asked Lu Weimang in detail about his movements in the past few days.
"Miss is really amazing, if she is a boy, you will have a successor, master, and you will definitely be able to do something on the battlefield in the future."
Steward Lu sighed.
Father Lu listened to the housekeeper's detailed talk about his daughter's actions in the past few days, and sighed, "No, my girl doesn't like to cry when she is young, once I went out hunting, she had to go with her, I said, you can go if you want to go, you have to walk by yourself, you can't let me hug it, as a result, she walked on her little short legs, and she followed me all the way, without shouting a word of bitterness." I shot the rabbit, and she took it for me, drew her sword, pressed the blood, and did it well. At this time, she is still such a hard temper, Lao Lu, you follow her, give her everything you want, don't worry about anything else, she can do whatever she wants. β
"Hey..."
