Chapter 48: Pretty Women Are Woe to Water
Following the little eunuch to the second floor, he saw a group of men dressed in brocade clothes surrounding an old man in ink clothes under the dim light, and they were constantly slapping horses.
Seeing Qu Yunchu's figure, everyone stopped.
The little eunuch walked to the old man in ink and introduced in a whisper: "Mrs. Lu, this is the master of my family, the newly appointed Weaving Department Weaver Liu Gonggong. ”
Although the weaving department is only a five-grade official, because he directly supervises and procures silk for the royal family, he is really poor, and his actual status is no worse than that of those first-class officials.
Unexpectedly, such an important position was now handed over to a eunuch.
Qu Yunchu shook his body respectfully at the old eunuch: "The woman has seen Gonggong Liu." ”
"Young lady doesn't have to be polite."
Gonggong Liu smiled sadly: "It's rare to see the Lu family mixed up in the casino, just looking at the young lady's temperament of spending a lot of money downstairs, I admire it very much, and I want to learn from the young lady." ”
Seeing that he said it so high-soundingly, Qu Yunchu felt a burst of disdain.
It's just that I want to pit some silver from myself, and I admire and learn, and I make such a literary crepe word.
Although today's weaving department is still the emperor's errand, it has long been different from the past, and I heard that if you want to get oil and water, you have to refer to the Lu family in the end.
"Let Gonggong Liu and everyone laugh."
Qu Yunchu pretended to be extremely disappointed and shook his head: "It's also strange to the group of stinky Taoist priests in Xuanduguan, I went to Jiuyun Mountain a few days ago, and my second master did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to donate silver for the ancestor to protect his peace and wealth, maybe they were told that I had good fortune, so I wanted to come to this Hongshun casino to try my luck, who knew that I lost to a poor scholar with a decrepit ghost, it was really infuriating." ”
"How can the words of the Taoist priest be trusted?"
Father-in-law Liu also heard that this woman had taken a fancy to that Zhang Sheng and wanted to pit people into the house, but he didn't know that stealing chickens would not be a counter-erosion.
I'm afraid that Lu Wenqian has also become a useless person like herself, which made her have such evil thoughts.
"Young lady don't have to worry, Second Master Lu is just temporarily ill, and it will be fine sooner or later."
Gonggong Liu quipped meaningfully.
Qu Yunchu heard the deep meaning of his words, and it was nothing more than feeling that he was empty and lonely, so he came out to hook up with a man.
"I borrowed the auspicious words of Gonggong Liu."
Qu Yunchu smiled and pointed to the dice on the table: "Fang just lost downstairs for a while, I'm afraid I will point to Gonggong Liu to return to his roots today, if he wins Gonggong Liu, Gonggong Liu can't blame." ”
"The casino is ruthless, how can we not understand this truth, and we are willing to gamble and lose."
Father-in-law Liu said, quietly took the dice, and the two began a deceitful contest.
......
In the twilight, the quiet and quiet Lu Mansion became lively again with the panicked intrusion of a group of people.
The little ones supported the injured Hua'an and went straight to the Quinoa Banyan Courtyard.
Seeing Lu Yanchao's face, they rushed to avenge their grievances one by one.
After adding fuel and vinegar to the ins and outs of the matter, someone indignantly reprimanded:
"Chao Ye, the second young lady simply didn't take you and the eldest young lady in her eyes, that Zhang Xiucai clearly wanted to harm herself, but the second young lady pushed my little young master out to block the knife."
Lu Yanchao seemed extremely calm from beginning to end, personally feeding Tang Youning's freshly boiled bird's nest porridge spoonful by spoonful.
Tang Youning felt more and more that her husband was absent-minded, the bird's nest in her mouth had not yet been swallowed, but his next spoonful had already reached her mouth, so frightened that she quickly stood up and hurriedly transferred the spearhead.
"My sister is really capable, and now she dares to go to Hongshun Gambling House to gamble for money, who gave her the guts."
Lu Yanchao glanced at her quietly, only to feel that his lady was becoming more and more stupid.
I just heard the little guys mention that Ji Zhen was also present, so the second uncle must also be aware.
Who gave the guts to ask.
"I really can't understand the mind of our second uncle more and more."
Lu Yanchao shook his head and sneered.
Since he woke up that night, his attitude towards his lady has changed drastically, and he has protected her everywhere, and allocated 100,000 taels of silver to her every month to spend, and even the affairs of Qujia Village have to help her intervene.
Now she is even indulged in gambling in the casino.
The second uncle spoiled a woman like this, and it was the first time he had seen it.
"Sure enough, women who are too beautiful are all woes."
The second aunt's unbeatable face, even he had to admit it.
Hearing him mutter, Tang Youning felt greatly offended and stared at him stunned.
Does it mean that he is not as beautiful as the little vixen?
The eyes of the two met together, but Lu Yanchao pursed his lips quietly: "Where do you want to go, I just think that the second uncle is now confused by your sister." ”
Hua Wanxin, who rushed to hear the news, heard her son's words, and her face darkened terribly.
"Auntie, you have to make decisions for your nephew."
Hua An came in for a long time, and his cousin and sister-in-law didn't say that they would arrange medicine for him, and the grievances he had endured for a long time only broke out completely in front of Hua Wanxin, and he immediately cried to death.
"Ouch, my good nephew, where is the injury, let someone take a look."
Hua Wanxin was distressed, and hurriedly sent the female envoys and mothers-in-law beside him to help him see the injury.
"It's just a little bit of flesh and skin, and you can't die."
Lu Yanchao looked at his cousin's pretending appearance, fearing that the world would not be chaotic, and he was a little upset.
"Chao'er, how can you talk like that, he is your own cousin."
Hua Wanxin couldn't help wiping her tears: "My mother's family is such a lone seedling now, if he has three long and two short, your grandmother and uncle and aunt will not be distressed to death." ”
After the words fell, he asked the old lady beside him to check Hua'an's injury.
Knowing that there was no blood, the hanging heart was a little relieved.
"Hurry up and help me get on the medicine."
After asking people to hug Hua An and retreat, Hua Wanxin's face sank again.
"This Lu Shen family deceived people too much, and now they are all bullying my mother's family, and they don't abide by the family rules and go to the casino to gamble money, which is really more and more presumptuous."
Hua Wanxin clenched her fists hatefully, and was about to go out to ask the old lady to call the shots, but saw Ji Ping hurriedly walking in with a gloomy face.
When Lu Yanchao whispered, his calm face suddenly darkened.
"What happened again?"
Hua Wanxin asked dissatisfiedly.
Ji Ping glanced at his son-in-law, and saw that he didn't answer, so he had to reply hesitantly: "Second...... The girl next to the second young lady will be Zhang ...... Zhang Sheng took Feng Ya Ge. ”
"Zhang Sheng?"
Hua Wanxin said angrily: "Is that the poor talent who accused Chao'er in a neighboring county a month ago?" ”
Ji Ping pursed his lips tightly before nodding heavily, but Lu Yanchao had already led the people out of the door in a hurry.
"Chao'er."
Hua Wanxin called out for some reason, but her son suddenly became as hideous as a killing god, and disappeared into the night without looking back.
She panicked, and hurriedly instructed Tang Youning: "Youning, quickly follow me to Qishuang and ask your grandmother." ”
She has never dared to compete with the second child, and at this time, I am afraid that she can only ask the old lady to come forward.
