Chapter 70: I Don't Want It
Lu Jingyuan ignored his provocative words, and still said calmly: "Second brother, if I was there last night, no matter what, I wouldn't let the people of the Chen family see the joke." ”
"The Chen family and our Lu family have always looked at each other, they don't look down on us because they are closer to the Thousand Mountains Sect, and the people present at the auction yesterday are all people with heads and faces, you threw your face there, isn't it your fault?"
This was said without urgency or impartiality, and as soon as the words fell, even the elder who wanted to protect Lu Zhiang the most nodded, and the eldest prince of Xindao really had the demeanor of being the head of the house.
Not to mention the other sons, they all aimed at Yu Hu just now and at Lu Zhiang.
"That's it! Why didn't you discuss such a big matter with the head of the family, and you actually made your own decisions! ”
"Second brother, after all, you have less experience, and you are not as cautious as the eldest brother."
"Now the Chen family secretly doesn't know how to laugh at us, and thinks that our Lu family can't even take out 600,000 taels of silver."
"Second brother, it's a small thing that I didn't grab this thing, but it's a big loss of face, when do you think we'll be able to get it back this time?"
……
Everyone blamed him for messing things up, and the left sentence and the right sentence almost reduced Lu Zhiang to the dust.
Lu Zhiang couldn't bear it anymore and shouted, "Enough!" It's all my fault! "Turn around, flick your sleeves and go.
Several elders present shook their heads one after another, "The second son can't listen to the words of the ear, his temperament is too stubborn." ”
Lu Kun's face was gloomy, but he was even more anxious, Lu Zhiang had always been unpopular in the Lu family, if this matter went wrong again, even if he had the heart to help him, he would not be able to help him.
"Jing Yuan, just now Zhiang said that the Song girl lives in the mansion of the good young master, so you can go on my behalf and find out the details."
"Yes," Lu Jingyuan responded, "What about Yu Hu?" ”
"Since Zhiang has always been accompanied, let Zhiang continue to follow, but our people must also be scattered, and we must not be led by his nose like before."
Lu Jingyuan nodded, "Yes, recently, other families have also chosen some magic weapons and pills, can the head of the family pick some good ones?" ”
"That's the only way," Lu Kun was a little unwilling, "This batch of things, I will send someone else to the Thousand Mountains Sect to avoid Yu Hu's side." ”
The elders nodded in agreement, "That's the best." ”
"Jing Yuan, this time, we can't go wrong again."
Lu Jingyuan smiled slightly, and he was in his chest, "Don't worry, the head of the family and the elders, I will definitely do a good job." ”
*
When Lu Zhiang returned to his courtyard, he was still so angry that he couldn't sit down or drink.
"This Yu Hu! Lao Tzu is still helping him everywhere, and now he has left himself all gone, what kind of brother! ”
"And that Lu Jingyuan! It's really like a fly staring at me every day, and he will make a big fuss about it if he is not careful! ”
"Smack!" He slammed a teapot hard, and then he felt a little more relieved.
The attendant on the side hurriedly came up to persuade, "Second son, the eldest son is just not happy to always look for you because he can't compare to you, the head of the family is like a mirror in his heart, why are you angry for him?" ”
"That's it! When this incident passes, you are still the grandson of the head of the family, and no matter how good he is at his errand, he can't compare to the relationship between his grandson and grandson. ”
"The head of the family is still biased towards you today, the second son relaxes."
……
Lu Zhiang didn't understand this, but he was not stupid, and waved his hand and said, "That being said, why does Lu Jingyuan grasp it so accurately every time?" ”
"Today, Sun Hou came to ask for money, even I don't know, he can call all the elders and sons, there is clearly a problem!"
"You go, send someone to inquire, where did Lu Jingyuan learn about these things, you must find out! I'd like to see what he has to rely on! ”
The entourage didn't dare to ask more, so he answered "yes" and withdrew.
Only Lu Zhiang was left secretly ruthless in the house.
Yu Hu, Lu Jingyuan, you all wait for me, the master will never forget it so easily!
*
In the next few days, everything was developing as Ling Ge and Gong Shan had envisioned.
Lu Jingyuan came to visit, but Ling Ge still didn't show up, but he didn't care, the purpose of his trip was originally for Gong Shan.
Gong treated Lu Jingyuan well, compared to his hospitality to Yu Hu and Lu Zhiang, it can be said that he was much closer, not only left Lu Jingyuan to talk for a while, but even prepared a return gift.
And these news reached Lu Zhiang's ears as they were.
But this time, Lu Zhiang changed his impetuous nature, and actually held back and did not have a seizure, but pretended to be nothing, and still accompanied Yu Hu to the palace every day to see the eyes of others.
As for Yu Hu, he was very satisfied with the Lu family and Lu Zhiang's forbearance.
In his opinion, even if the Lu family said the same thing, in front of the people of the Thousand Mountains Sect, even if he was just an ordinary disciple and an errand messenger, they should obey their words and should not have any disobedience.
Therefore, when they visited for the third time, and Gong Shan said that Miss Song had arranged a banquet and would treat Yu Hu and Lu Zhiang well in the evening, Yu Hu was greatly relieved, and his joy was beyond words.
The errand to find the jade, he will be able to complete it in no time!
That night, Gong Shan deliberately found a secluded courtyard outside the city, and set up a first-class banquet, waiting for Yu Hu and Lu Zhiang to arrive.
As soon as Yu Hu and the others got out of the carriage in the courtyard, they saw Gong Shan greet them with a smile and said, "The two of you are here, just waiting for you." ”
Behind her, a woman in pink walked out of the house, her complexion was charming, and her temperament was noble, it was Ling Ge, the Song girl in their eyes.
Yu Hu took two steps and saluted first: "It turns out that Miss Song has arrived first, I am afraid that I acted too recklessly before, and Miss Song is still angry." ”
Ling Ge smiled lightly and said: "Whatever envoy Yu Zun said, it is all a misunderstanding, I asked Young Master Shan to invite the two of you today, just to spread the words, lest the flood wash away the Dragon King Temple, and my own people will beat my own people." ”
"Please, Envoy Yu."
"Yes, yes", Yu Huxiao's eyes narrowed into a slit and took the lead into the room.
Lu Zhiang followed behind Yu Hu, arched his hand towards Gong Shan, and stared at Ling Ge up and down, just with a smile of unknown meaning, and his eyes were secretly sarcastic, as if to say, I want to see what tricks you are playing.
Ling Ge and Gong Shan saw it in their eyes, and they were silent.
After the meal, a few people at the banquet talked and laughed, only gossiping, and the atmosphere was very harmonious for a while.
Seeing that it was almost over, Yu Hu smiled first: "Miss Song, I don't understand something, I still want to ask Miss Song for some advice." ”
Ling Ge naturally knew what he was talking about, and as soon as the jade hand was raised, a white jade branch appeared in her palm, which was the one she had photographed in the Gufang Pavilion.
"What does Envoy Yu want to ask?"
"Exactly!" Yu Hu's eyes lit up as he stared at the jade branches, and he almost reached out to take it!
Ling Ge smiled understandingly, put the piece of jade on the table, and pushed it in front of him.
"Yu Zun envoy can take a look. Today, I also brought Li Chao here, and Yu Zun can ask him face to face. ”
Gong Shan clapped his hands when he heard this, and as soon as the door opened, someone walked in with a blue-robed man, it was Li Chao.
Li Chao didn't look very happy, and when he came to the door, he first saluted Gong Shan and Ling Ge, and then glared at Lu Zhiang angrily.
"Girl."
Ling Ge nodded, "Gongzi Li, please come and take a look, this piece of jade was bought by me at the auction, but is it your family's ancestral jade?" ”
Li Chao walked over a few steps, unceremoniously snatched the jade branch from Yu Hu's hand, and put it in the palm of his hand to study it carefully.
It took a long time before he said, "Yes, it's my family's piece." ”
Yu Hu hurriedly asked, "Didn't you say that your family is a piece of green jade?" This is obviously a piece of white jade! ”
Li Chao glanced at him and sneered: "This adult may not know, either it looks white or white jade, strictly speaking, this jade is cyan and white, so it is green jade!" ”
He looked at Ling Ge again, and his tone was much softer, "Girl, it is said that when I first got this piece of jade more than a hundred years ago, it was obviously cyan, but when it was passed on to my father's generation, it had become much lighter when it was lost and recovered, and we don't understand this. ”
"But the patterns and traces of the family heirloom jade, I am clear, this piece of jade is the one that is my family's ancestral, it will never be wrong!"
Hearing Li Chao's categorical answer, Yu Hu unconsciously rubbed his hands, as if he had been rewarded by the sect!
Ling Ge nodded and asked Li Chaodao, "Gongzi Li, now that the Thousand Mountains Sect wants this piece of jade, can I ask you to cut your love?" Whatever you want, just say it, I can satisfy you. ”
"Yes, yes!" Yu Hu also hurriedly said: "If you ask for how much money you want, I can also give it!" ”
When Lu Zhiang next to him heard this, the corners of his mouth pulled out a sarcastic smile.
Now he's rich!
Li Chaoli ignored Yu Hu, just looked at the piece of jade and sighed softly, "Originally, this is my family heirloom treasure jade, and I have blessed my family with peace for more than a hundred years. ”
"But the girl saved my family's life, and bought it from outside at a cost, and I really can't refuse the girl's request."
Saying that, Li Chao bowed to Ling Ge, "The Li family has declined, I just want to live peacefully with my family, raise my children, and be an ordinary person for the rest of my life. ”
Ling Ge was a little moved, "In that case, I promise you that I will ensure the safety of you and your family, I took this piece of jade, and I will definitely compensate you for other magic treasures in the future, how about it?" ”
"Li Chao listens to the girl's arrangement."
With that, Li Chao turned around and strode out, without looking at the jade branch on the table, as if it had nothing to do with it anymore.
Yu Hu couldn't stop laughing in his heart, and the flattery on his face became more obvious.
"It's still Miss Song who has a way, she got this piece of jade without a penny, and Li Chao's obedience, I still have to learn more from Miss Song."
