"Young master, young grandmother..."

Liu Si had been waiting in the guest hall in the front yard for a long time, and when he saw the four young masters returning, he immediately got up to greet them.

"Uncle Liu, let's go home." Lu Wenjing said lightly.

"Yes."

Liu Si felt that the young master seemed to be a little absent-minded, and he expected that Shicai must have encountered something unpleasant, and it was very likely to be related to the Zhao family. As the housekeeper of the Lu Mansion, it was inconvenient for him to ask about his master's private affairs, so he just answered and followed closely behind Lu Wenjing.

A few people left the Zhao Mansion, Lu Wenjing and the little lady still talked and laughed along the way, but they couldn't let go of the words that the old father-in-law said to him.

Who is the person behind Zhao Liangyong?

What is his real purpose?

So much so that when he looked at his wife Zhao Qianrou, he couldn't help but have some doubts.

The marriage between the Zhao family and the Lu family doesn't also have a hidden purpose, right?

It is said that a woman's sixth sense is the strongest, Zhao Qianrou felt that there was something wrong with her husband's eyes looking at her, and finally couldn't help asking:

"Xianggong, are you uncomfortable?"

"Huh? No, no, I'm fine. Lu Wenjing came to his senses.

Zhao Qianrou's expression was a little gloomy, "I know that Xianggong must be unhappy, is it my father who is upsetting Xianggong?" ”

"Master Yue-in-law treats me like a son, it's too late for me to respect me."

"Don't lie to me, what did Daddy tell you about me and Lan Ying? Did he force Xianggong to do something, or did he make you agree to some unacceptable conditions? ”

Lu Wenjing looked at the lady's increasingly fierce eyes, and secretly said that he couldn't tell the truth, so he could only deny it:

"No, Lord Yuezhang just asked me to treat you well in the future, not to disappoint you, and didn't say anything else."

"Really?"

"It's true..."

Zhao Qianrou stood on her feet, her head was over, and a pair of big eyes flashed and looked carefully at Xianggong's face, as if she wanted to see the flowers.

Being scrutinized so closely by the lady, Lu Wenjing couldn't help but feel furious and uncomfortable.

"Lady, you... Have you seen enough? ”

"Alas..."Zhao Qianrou regained her posture and sighed, "Dad, he is sometimes a little stricter, maybe he was a temperament cultivated in the palace in the early years, and you will be more responsible in the future." ”

Lu Wenjing was relieved and said with a wry smile:

"I'm his son-in-law, and I'm half a child, so there's nothing wrong with being strict."

Zhao Qianrou unconsciously leaned towards Xianggong, and lowered her voice:

"Don't worry, since I am married to Xianggong, I am Xianggong's person, if my father embarrasses you, I will be the first to refuse."

"Lady..."

Seeing the little lady's serious face, Lu Wenjing felt a little ashamed for a moment.

A woman who entrusts everything to herself, should not be suspected, I really damn ...

After feeling guilty, Lu Wenjing's heart warmed, and he inadvertently touched the lady's little hand, and just wanted to hold it, but was dodged by the other party like lightning.

"Xianggong doesn't look at the occasion..."Zhao Qianrou's face was red, and there was a hint of blame in her slender voice, but it was more sweet.

The more shy the little lady is, the more itchy Lu Wenjing becomes, and she can't help but secretly scold the evil old society, isn't it just a hand, primary school students in the 21st century won't feel anything, but I endure the kidnapping of morality here...

Lu Wenjing didn't feel it at this time, there was a little maid behind him who was always staring at the two of them, and she had already thrown dozens of blank eyes.

"Hmph, the Lu family is so casual, it's really from other provinces."

"Steward Lan doesn't like it, you can go back to Zhao's house at any time..."

Although Liu Si is old, his hearing is excellent, so he went back directly.

"You... Hum! Lan Ying just wanted to have a seizure, but she was afraid that the young lady would reprimand her, so she could only endure it and snorted coldly.

"The Lu Mansion is the Lu Mansion of the Lu family, and Steward Lan will have to adapt to it for a while in the future, hehe..."

Liu Si stroked his beard and smiled very pleasantly.

"Don't be too proud of the old people, they are all people who have most of their bodies in the ground, be careful and be happy and sad." Lan Ying said coldly.

"Ahem... What a girl with sharp teeth and sharp teeth! ”

Liu Simeng coughed a few times before he recovered, obviously angry.

"Uncle Liu, you are old, you should pay attention to your body." Lu Wenjing didn't understand what was going on, and it was another critical blow when he turned around.

“... Thank you for your concern. Liu Si's face became even more ugly.

Lan Ying covered her mouth and sneered, but she couldn't hold back her laughter.

Lu Wenjing noticed her, remembered something, and said deliberately:

"Ying'er, young master, my legs are a little sore, go back and pinch me."

"What... What? Lan Ying couldn't laugh anymore, "There are so many people around the young master who can call him, why are you looking for me?" ”

Zhao Qianrou didn't feel that there was anything here, the maid had to play a part of the responsibility of serving her husband's family, and it didn't hurt to share some for herself, and Ying'er's attitude in her husband's house these days was a little arrogant, and she did owe a beating, so she also said:

"You are the housekeeper of the East Courtyard and my personal maid, so it doesn't hurt to pinch it for the young master."

"Since it was requested by Miss, then... Then the slave and maid will be reluctant to make it difficult. ”

Lan Ying could only agree, but when she saw Lu Wenjing's unkind expression, she couldn't help but feel a sigh in her heart.

......

Back at Lu Mansion, before noon, Lu Wenjing asked Lan Ying to accompany the lady back to the East Courtyard to rest, and then planned to make some arrangements for the Jiao family with Liu Si.

The Lu family has several parts of the industry in Beijing, among them, the horse farm in the southern suburbs is guarded by special personnel, and it is far away from the city, so there is no need for the Jiao family to move it.

And the restaurants are all set up on Gulou East Street, that place is too conspicuous, and there is an official yamen nearby, and it is unlikely that the Jiao family will touch it.

There is also a dart game left, which is all about practicing families, and no one is stupid enough to take the initiative to provoke.

After excluding these targets, the ones who are most likely to be plotted by them are those shops, and the Lu family's money bank is also among them.

At this time, Lu Wenjing called Old Butler Liu alone and asked first:

"Uncle Liu, how are things going?"

"It's all arranged, the old street is not very well staffed, and the dart master of the dart bureau is temporarily dispatched to the top." Liu Si replied.

"Okay, I guess the Jiao family will go to step on the spot in the past two days, and most of them will do it in the middle of the night, so Uncle Liu should keep an eye on it."

"Yes, young master. The young master of the Jiao family has been in close contact with some ruffians in Jingshi in the past two days, and the old slave has arranged for someone to investigate. ”

Lu Wenjing nodded, "Jiao Fu wants to beat us, but it just happens to give us a chance." ”

Liu Si thought of something and said:

"Among the Jin Gang, the Shen family and the Wang family have not been living in peace recently, and the young master needs to discuss countermeasures with the master."

"Well, where is Daddy now? I'll go find him. ”

"At this time, I'm afraid the old man is worshipping God in the West Courtyard, right?"

"Worship God?"

Lu Wenjing recalled from the memory of his predecessor that this father was extremely superstitious, whether it was in his hometown in Shanxi or in Beijing, there were indispensable places to worship gods and sacrifices in the mansion.

To this end, the Lu government also opened a "worship hall" in the west courtyard.

"Uncle Liu, you are busy with yours, if there is any movement in the Jiao family, you must report to me in time."

"Okay, young master."

After Lu Wenjing finished instructing, he strode towards the west courtyard, what the worship hall looked like, he was very curious.
