"In my opinion," Lu Zhengfu sat cross-legged on the circle chair and took a sip of tea, "Shou'er, you just drive that woman out." She is also reluctant, the so-called 'twisted melon is not sweet', there is just a reason for this. ”

Lu Jishou stood in front of him, gritted his teeth and said, "I'll just say that that woman is not a good thing!" It turned out to be a female prisoner...... Get out of here, let her go! ”

"Let's not talk about that...... I heard that you borrowed a debt in the gambling house in Jiangdu County last time, and you haven't paid it back yet, and someone came to urge me yesterday, so I just knew. Those people were so angry that they almost poured dog blood on our door. Lu Zhengfu's words were a little resentful.

"This ......" Lu Jishou's face was ugly all of a sudden, and he blushed and shouted thickly: "He...... How dare they? daring to pour dog blood on the Lu family is tantamount to breaking ground on Tai Sui's head...... That's impatience! ”

"These gambling houses are covered by the government, not to mention that it is the capital of our Yangzhou capital! They don't care about our little sign and intimidate it...... Should you do it or you have to do it! ”

Lu Zhengfu said, suddenly knocked on the table, and changed the conversation: "I let you mess around no matter what I do on weekdays, I thought you were also an honest child, and you couldn't make a big move; But I secretly went to gamble and hid it for half a month! Now that you owe this one hundred taels of silver, how much face have you made our Lu family lose! ”

He sighed, was silent for a while, and then said, "You better go to the account office as soon as possible to get the money and pay off all the debts." ”

Lu Jishou didn't move, lowered his head, and didn't say a word.

"Going?" Lu Zhengfu said.

"The son went to the account room to ask, and the steward said that he couldn't move a hundred taels ......."

Lu Zhengfu wondered: "Didn't you have one hundred and forty taels of spare money left some time ago?" ”

"Because the dowry for Zhuo Lengping cost ninety taels, although Chen Tongpao gave us thirty taels of silver, didn't my father pay him back another fifty taels, how can there be any spare money......

Master Lu's forehead wrinkled into the word 'Chuan' and was silent.

"Father, Shou'er looks like this...... How is it? Lu Jishou slowly walked up to him and said with a smile.

"How?" Lu Zhengfu leaned his ear over.

"Since it's hard to allocate the money from elsewhere, why don't you arrest Zhuo Lengping and ask the government for a reward......

Lu Zhengfu shook his head: "No." She Zhuo Lengping has been released by the government before, how can she be arrested? Even if she is really a prisoner, she can't see any big things committed, how can she ask for so much reward? ”

"It's not easy! We will trouble the government and fabricate a recognizable crime for her, and it will be convenient. Lu Jishou said slowly.

When his father heard this, he smiled and patted him on the head: "You kid is not doing anything, you have a lot of ghost ideas......"

His father and son immediately called the maid who served Zhuo Lengping and instructed her to 'take care of Zhuo Lengping and give him a chance to escape', otherwise he would be severely punished.

The maid took the order in a panic, and came out of the house, and walked a tortuous road to Zhuo Lengping's bedroom. She pulled up the hem of her skirt, walked up the stairs with broken steps, knocked on the door, and coughed: "Auntie, you ...... Are you in the house? ”

"Come in."

The maid gently pushed open the door and saw Zhuo Lengping sitting on the edge of the bed, holding a needle and thread, sewing clothes.

"Has my aunt washed up when she got up? Need something to eat? Whatever we are commanded, it is. The maid asked, hunched over.

Zhuo Lengping put the needle and thread aside, and said softly: "Rest and go, don't bother you." ”

"Cold screen!"

When the maid heard someone shouting behind her, she suddenly shuddered and raised her eyelids timidly to look at her.

Zhuo Lengping saw her like this, and was secretly strange in his heart, so he saw Lu Jishou smiling, pushed the maid away, and slowly approached the bedside.

"Leng Ping," Lu Jishou grabbed Zhuo Lengping's two hands and looked at him affectionately: "I quarreled with you yesterday and broke your heart...... I hope you can understand......"

Zhuo Lengping swallowed his saliva, and before he could speak, he saw Lu Jishou stand up and yelled at the maid: "Leng Ping has been awake for a long time, and I haven't seen you go to the basin to get food, so you dare to treat the young master's bride like this?" Just go! ”

"Aunt said......"

"Auntie, auntie, shit aunt!" Lu Jishou kicked the bed board fiercely: "If you want to call Mrs., do you hear it!" ”

"Yes...... Madame ...... "The maid didn't dare to move, and whispered.

"If you know, go quickly, don't bother!" Lu Jishou pulled down his face and scolded, immediately turned his head, and took out a smiling face to look at Zhuo Lengping.

"Madam, that incident is all bad for me, and I will make amends to you." He patted Leng Ping's shoulder, "What our Lu family has is money, as long as it can make you feel at ease, you can say whatever you want, why be so restrained!" ”

Zhuo Lengping saw that he was very different from last night, as if he had changed people, and he was extremely surprised. She stared at him with those two watery eyes, trying to see something in them. But it is difficult to expect these eyes to penetrate people's hearts.

She had no choice but to follow his wishes and persuade: "As long as my husband and wife can get along, why should we buy any more things?" When the husband said this, the concubine was at ease. ”

"Madame's words are really general and likable!" After he said that, he hugged her happily, put his face against him, and rubbed Zhuo Lengping's cheek like a cat, Zhuo Lengping only frowned, not daring to speak.

"Young master, the basin is here." The door creaked, and the maid walked in with a heavy copper basin in her hands.

Lu Jishou straightened his clothes, got up and ordered: "Just put the basin on the shelf." ”

"Yes." The maid carefully placed the copper basin filled with water on the wooden frame by the wall.

"Ma'am, get up and wash your face." Lu Jishou gently persuaded.

Zhuo Lengping immediately stood up, walked to the copper basin, washed his face with water, and wiped it with a handkerchief. Lu Jishou asked the maid to take off the basin, and said with a smile and Leng Ping: "Madame, do you need to comb your hair?" I see your hair is messed up, too. ”

Zhuo Lengping nodded silently, and was just about to reach out for the comb, but Lu Jishou took the comb first, and then gently put it in her palm: "Don't bother Madame......"

When Zhuo Lengping saw him like this, the more strange he felt in his heart, and he began to think about it. She was absentmindedly moving the comb, when suddenly there was a loud 'clang' out of nowhere, which startled her so much that her hands trembled and the comb fell to the ground.

"You girl is clumsy!"

Zhuo Lengping looked back, the water in the basin was spilled on the ground, and the maid was kneeling in front of him, her body trembling.
