A long winter night with a cold wind.

In Feng Ya Pavilion, Lu Wenqian was sitting in the courtyard with his eyes closed.

The wind swept through the eaves, and the sound of swaying came from time to time.

He knew that tonight was destined to be a sleepless night, so he had no intention of sleeping.

According to the date agreed in the letter, the fourth child should have entered the city.

Hearing footsteps outside the hospital, he pushed his wheelchair directly into the empty courtyard and waited.

After a while, I saw Ke Yan leading the famous embarrassed young man in.

But Yan was about to speak, but Lu Wenqian waved his hand slowly, pointed to the stone table on the side, and motioned to Zhang Sheng: "Sit." ”

Then he immediately instructed Ke Yan: "Go to the outer courtyard and call some miscellaneous servants to come in and light the lights everywhere again." ”

Ke Yan looked dazed, looking at his uncle's calm and calm demeanor, he had already expected Zhang Sheng to come.

And looking at this posture, my uncle is afraid that he will welcome guests in the courtyard.

As soon as the thought fell, I saw a group of people under the pressure of black and broke straight into the courtyard.

She raised her eyes and saw that it was Yan Chao who brought someone in to the young master, and her scalp was numb with fright, and she quickly slipped out with her eyebrows lowered and bent her waist.

However, the enemy was very red when he saw him, Lu Yanchao only glanced at Zhang Sheng, and the hatred in his heart was completely written on his face.

"Zhang Xiucai is really capable, he was able to break into Feng Ya Pavilion alone."

Lu Yanchao directly lowered his face, and said with a grim expression: "Second uncle, I don't have to worry about other things with you, but Zhang Sheng, you have to leave it to me." ”

After a pause, he said again: "This person harbors evil intentions, and uses the Crescent Moon Academy to slander my Lu family everywhere, and wants to trap my Lu family in injustice. ”

"Yan Chao, whether he slandered you or the Lu family, this point still needs to be distinguished."

Lu Wenqian pursed the corners of his lips lightly, smiled lightly and gestured to Zhang Sheng again.

The look of non-anger forced him to sit down obediently at the stone table.

When Lu Yanchao saw this guy sitting down leisurely in front of him, he was immediately angry, glared at him and shouted: "What is the difference between slandering me and slandering the entire Lu family?" ”

"What do you say?"

Lu Wenqian glanced at him calmly.

Lu Yanchao choked when he heard it.

Only then did he gradually realize that if he didn't die, he really wouldn't be able to represent the entire Lu family.

"If a man walks rightly, how can he be afraid of slander."

Lu Wenqian knew the reason for the festival between Zhang Sheng and Lu Yanchao, and said meaningfully: "If it is really a non-existent thing, once it is true, it will change its taste." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a woman's noise suddenly came from outside the courtyard.

"What kind of nonsense is the second brother talking about, how much of a sin can that child in Hua'an, but he was injured by Lu Shen's like this, how could she slap me in the face, it was clearly an elbow turned outward, embarrassing the entire Lu Mansion."

With the arrival of Hua Wanxin, Feng Yage immediately poured in a lot of people, including Lu Baiting and Lu Baiyong in the second and third rooms, as well as several children from the long house.

A group of people surrounded the old lady Jiang Rui and stepped into the courtyard with fear.

"Wen Qian, is your body better?"

Jiang Rui slowly walked out and stopped the menacing daughter-in-law.

arrived in front of Lu Wenqian and looked at it carefully, and then asked the female envoys behind him to take a seat.

"Thanks to his mother, my son is still alive."

Lu Wenqian choked coldly and let out a faint smile.

Jiang Rui looked at it with a grim expression, and didn't dare to answer for a long time.

Turning his head and glancing at Zhang Sheng next to him, he reopened his mouth:

"I heard that the child in Hua'an was owed him silver by the Cui family in Shu County, and the husband of the Cui family, who had not passed the door, felt some pity and took the initiative to replace the Cui family's debts, but that Zhang Xiucai himself was not motivated, and he went to the casino and lost his family, and he couldn't pay Hua'an's silver.

"It seems that my mother is not as Sanniang said, recuperating in the hospital with peace of mind, there is a way that seeing may not be believing, and this idle thing is even more unreliable."

Lu Wenqian sneered.

"Second brother, how can you talk like this, the fact that the Cui family owes Hua'an money is always indisputable, could it be that he begged for the silver and paid for it?"

Hua Wanxin relied on the presence of her mother-in-law, and fought with Lu Wenqian on the basis of reason.

"It seems that my sister-in-law doesn't know much about your nephew."

Lu Wenqian's eyebrows sank, and he instructed the miscellaneous servants in the courtyard: "Go and invite the young master and the fourth elder of the Hua family to come over." ”

Several handymen guarding the gate of the courtyard received the order and immediately left.

When everyone was at a loss, I saw Steward Lu bring someone to help Hua'an and walk in.

There was also a young couple behind him, who were the old four Lu Wenjing and his wife from the long house.

Hua An was still a little afraid to see Lu Wenqian, but seeing that his aunt, cousin and grandmother were all there, he suddenly had confidence.

glanced at Lu Wenqian coldly with disdain, walked straight to Jiang Rui with his buttocks, and pleaded mournfully: "Old grandmother, you have to make the decision for your grandson, your grandson has suffered a lot today, and he almost won't see your old man." ”

Jiang Rui felt sorry for her daughter-in-law who was widowed at a young age, and she also felt sorry for her grandson who had no father when she was born, and she also loved the grandson of the Hua family.

Looking at Lu Wenqian, she sighed and said, "Hua'an grew up in front of my knees after all, and nothing can be said to make him feel wronged." ”

Hua Wanxin also took the opportunity to take over: "Hua'an, tell me, how much silver does the Cui family owe you?" ”

"Auntie, that Cui family Saburo really owes me five hundred taels of silver, and it is clearly written in black and white."

Hua An hurriedly took out the IOU to show people.

Taking advantage of his aunt's inspection of the IOU, he said aggrievedly: "Even if the second aunt thinks that the profit I received is higher, the five hundred taels of silver can never be faked. ”

"Really?"

Lu Wenqian's eyes sneered like a cold pool.

His eyes turned to look at Lu Wenjing, who was in the dust: "Fourth, you might as well tell me what good things this good nephew has done in Shu County?" ”

Although Lu Wenjing is from a long house, he has always been the most valued by Lu Wenqian, and has always taken care of many affairs of the Lu family for him.

This time, I also heard about some things that damaged the reputation of the Lu family, and I specially went to Shucheng for my brother.

He looked at his mother-in-law Jiang Rui and Hua Wanxin with burning eyes, and said truthfully:

"Qiyu's mother and sister-in-law, Hua'an has been secretly using the name of the Lu family to privately release money in Shu County over the years, and has also suppressed local merchants by improper means, and used the prestige of the Lu family to forcibly occupy various government wharf warehouses.

Glancing at Hua An indignantly, Lu Wenjing frowned and continued:

"A few months ago, the goods hoarded in Shucheng's official warehouse disappeared mysteriously, Cui Saburo took the merchants to find Hua'an theory, not only did not recover the goods but also caused several lives, Shucheng County in order to calm the people, so he put all the blame on Hua'an, saying that he was against the imperial merchants and intended to rebel and make trouble, Xu is that Cui Saburo was frightened and returned to Yanyang City and did not dare to mention the matter of Shucheng, but had to make up the money to repay the lease silver."

Hearing this, Lu Yanchao's face was gloomy, and he was already very dissatisfied.

He looked at Lu Wenjing with fierce eyes, and said loudly: "Why did the fourth uncle only say it now when such a horrific thing happened?" ”

Lu Wenjing really couldn't hear the meaning of his words, and he and Lu Wenqian looked at each other and only smiled faintly.
