Chapter 185: The courtesy is too heavy, and Lu Anxin is suspicious
Chu Yin, more than forty years old, with a burly figure, a wisp of black beard floating on his chest, was born with an imperial appearance, at first glance, it suddenly made people feel awe.
It's a pity, people look like dogs, and they actually learn from others to rebel?
Just as Lu An was looking at the other party, he saw Lu Mancang step forward and introduce, "An'er, this is the Lord of Chu City, and he is not a person?" β
Lu An bowed his hand, and just as he was about to speak, he was supported by Chu Yin.
"Hehe, Brother Lu is polite."
"Ling Gongzi is a talent, and if he can call Chu an uncle, Chu will be satisfied."
Uncle Chu?
Lu An was secretly surprised.
I can't imagine that the old man is really a brother and sister to this rebellious guy!
Although thinking like this, Lu An still climbed up the pole and said respectfully, "Little nephew Lu An, I have seen Uncle Chu." β
"Haha, okay."
In Lu An's stunned and uneasy look, Chu Yin enthusiastically grabbed his wrist and walked towards the city side by side, while laughing, "A few days ago, Lingfeng, this girl, said that the virtuous nephew was coming to Jiankang, and Chu was excited.
Today's scene is specially arranged to welcome the virtuous nephew.
How is it, the virtuous nephew is still satisfied? β
Lu Antun was terrified, "Uncle Chu's hand is too big, right?" I'm afraid the little nephew can't afford it. β
"Hehe, the virtuous nephew is too modest."
Speaking of this, Chu Yin glanced at Lu Mancang beside him again, "Over the years, if it weren't for Ling Zun who has been providing us with a lot of property, we wouldn't have achieved the same achievements as we have today." β
"And I heard Ling Zun, Mu Lao and Lingfeng say that the Duxiu Fang that the virtuous nephew has been doing in the capital in the past two years, although the business is not big, the profit is acceptable."
"We've also received a lot of benefits from our nephews here."
Uh-
Lu An was immediately stunned when he heard this.
What the hell is the old man!
What I initially told him was that 60% of Duxiufang's profits were paid to Mu Lingfeng as a bodyguard.
- Of course, Lu An also saw later that Mu Lingfeng, the bodyguard, was indeed quite competent, but it seemed that he was not interested in the money he earned at all, but instead gave Pu Zhen the white-eyed wolf.
Now the rebel leader next to him said that he was also stained with the light of Duxiufang!
To put it this way...... Wouldn't he, Lu An, be equivalent to joining the ranks of the rebellion a long time ago?
Thinking of this, Lu Anxin jumped wildly!
The old man is so old, why is he getting old, but his brain is not good?
With the minds of his father and son, regardless of whether he is prosperous or troubled, it is absolutely no problem to be a rich man, so why choose a risky thing with his head?
It's a pity that Lu Mancang didn't seem to notice his gaze, and praised Chu Yin with a smile on his face, "Brother Chu doesn't know, although An'er is young, she didn't know much in the past few years.
However, An'er has indeed grown a lot in the past two years.
The old man didn't expect that An'er would be able to make such a lucrative deal as Duxiufang in a short period of time without any capital.
It's a pity, if it weren't for the chaos in the capital, Duxiufang would still be able to provide us with tens of thousands of taels of silver every month. β
"It's okay!" Chu Yin waved his hand domineeringly.
"Now the Jiangnan area is our master, if Young Master An is interested, he can show his strength in Jiangnan!"
Lu Mancang smiled and said, "Yes, An'er, when you insisted on going to the Western Regions, your father didn't agree, worried about what danger you would encounter."
Fortunately, you can come back safely, and this time you don't have to go anywhere again.
Just stay in the Jiangnan area.
If you still want to start a business in Duxiufang, that's okay.
The area south of the Yangtze River is now up to your Uncle Chu.
It's up to you to choose where you want to grow.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you don't want to do anything, your father can still afford to support you. β
"Hehe, that's right, Brother Lu is right!
Uncle Chu has already chosen a big mansion for you in Jiankang City, and you can choose as many slaves and maids as you want!
Uncle Chu, your father and Mu Lao all have one mind, as long as you can live a peaceful and carefree life.
What's more, you have a child now, and you have such a beautiful wife as Lingfengβ"
Chu Yin looked back, immediately stopped smiling, and swallowed the words back in his mouth at the same time.
Behind him, Mu Lingfeng's face was full of pear blossoms and rain, and he was aggrieved and hid in the arms of the old man of Mu Village and cried non-stop.
Seeing this, Lu Mancang's face sank, "An'er, are you bullying Lingfeng?" β
Before Lu An could speak, Mu Lingfeng behind him hurriedly wiped his tears, "My father-in-law misunderstood, my father-in-law is very good to me."
It's just, it's just that I've been away from home for a long time, and I miss my dad a little......"
Mu Cun comforted his daughter, and echoed with a smile, "Yes, Brother Lu, how can An'er be bad to Lingfeng?" β
Only then did Lu Mancang ease his face and teach earnestly, "An'er, what a good daughter-in-law Lingfeng is, you must cherish it."
Not to mention that when you went to the Western Regions this time, she was by your side to protect you, just say that when you were in the capital before, or accompanied the army to the north, if it weren't for her, you might have ...... long ago Alas! β
Being reprimanded by the old man, Lu An hurriedly nodded yes, and at the same time glanced back at Mu Lingfeng.
Fortunately, she didn't sue in person, otherwise, the old man might not let him go so easily.
Moreover, what the old man said was right.
Putting aside some of the things that Mu Lingfeng hid from him, he usually takes great care of him, and when he is in danger, he would rather be injured than protect him.
Seeing her aggrieved expression at the moment, Lu An suddenly softened again.
After the team entered the city, Chu Yin, Lu Mancang and Mu Cun accompanied Lu An to a very large mansion opposite the City Lord's Mansion.
"Virtuous nephew, this is the house that Uncle Chu prepared for you, how about it, it's okay, right?"
Lu An's head was shocked.
It's okay!
The scale of this mansion is almost on par with the City Lord's Mansion diagonally opposite!
Moreover, just the gate of the house is magnificent enough!
"Dad, father-in-law, did you live here before?"
Retracting his thoughts, Lu An asked subconsciously.
Lu Mancang shook his head with a smile, "An'er has grown up, she should have her own private space."
After my father and Brother Mu arrived in Jiankang City, they have been living with your Uncle Chu, and it is more convenient to discuss things in ordinary times.
This house is specially prepared for you by your Uncle Chu. β
When Lu An heard this, he hurriedly refused, "Uncle Chu is kind, and the little nephew understands it, but the little nephew really deserves such a heavy gift!" β
Chu Yin waved his hand and smiled, "Virtuous nephews don't have to refuse.
Didn't Uncle Chu say it before?
Over the years, if Ling Zun hadn't been helping us behind his back, Chu would not have achieved such an achievement today!
It's just a house, and the virtuous nephew can laugh! β
Lu Mancang also persuaded him, "An'er, Uncle Chu is not an outsider, what he gave you, just accept it, you don't have to be polite." β
"Okay then." Lu An no longer refused.
"The virtuous nephew will go and settle down first, and my uncle has prepared a banquet, and I will send someone to invite you later."
After speaking, Chu Yin, Lu Mancang and Mu Cun walked towards the City Lord's Mansion diagonally opposite with a team of soldiers.
Lu An also took Mu Lingfeng, Lu Yuyan and others into the mansion.
Chu Yin thought very thoughtfully, there were almost hundreds of servants in the mansion alone, and the area of the entire mansion was almost the same size as his previous Meishan Villa.
Even Lu Yuyan was shocked by such a big deal.
"An Shao, this Chu City Lord is really generous to you, even if this house is compared to the ancestral mansion of the head of the Qinghe Lu family, it is not much better!"
Lu An was also a little uneasy in his heart, but he waved his hand indifferently on the surface, "Miss Lu, you choose a room that suits you first, and then we will go to the City Lord's Mansion together." β
Lu Yuyan waved her hand again and again, "I'm afraid this is not very good, right?" The city lord of Chu is here to catch you up and wash the dust, and the concubine is an outsider after all......"
"Miss Lu, don't worry, just follow me later, and help me pay attention by the way."
When Lu Yuyan heard this, she immediately understood, and no longer shirked, and instructed Lian'er to find a servant and settle Lu An's precious son first.
On the other side, Mu Lingfeng kept his head hanging and silently walked to one of the rooms alone.
"Lingfengβ"
Lu An called, "You come with me." β
"Hmm." Mu Lingfeng's eyes flashed, and he obediently followed behind Lu An and walked towards the master bedroom at the back of the main hall.
