Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Nobleman
() In the blink of an eye, it has been three days since the Lufu Night Banquet, the weather is getting cooler and colder, and the fog in the early morning is getting thicker and thicker.
Lu Lianhua walked all the way to Hong Tea's small courtyard under the guidance of Hongfu's family, and before he got close to Hong Tea, he had already greeted him in person.
"I came early this morning, have you ever had breakfast?"
Hong teased Lu Lianhua, greeted him politely, and went back side by side with him.
"I've eaten, I came to bother me early in the morning, and I hope that the virtuous brother is not strange. ”
Lu Lianhua is still humble and polite in dealing with people, and he has never slacked off because of his relationship with Hong Tea, but where does Hong Tuo care about this, seeing that his clothes are still thin, he is concerned: "Why pay attention to these between you and me, you look thinner in your clothes, but you should pay attention to keeping warm." ”
The two walked all the way back to Hong Tea's room, and Hong Dou immediately ordered Doujiao, who was standing at the door: "Go make a pot of hot tea." ”
Doujiao retreated, and Hong hurriedly pulled Lu Lianhua to sit down: "Are you going back to Beijing?"
Lu Lianhua nodded, motioning for Si Ji to put the things in his hand on the table, and Si Ji willingly put the two brocade boxes in his hand on the table.
Only then did Hong Tuo notice that the Four Seasons still had something in his hand, thinking that it was the thank you gift that Lu Lianhua had said to Ah Lu and Di Gua.
"I was going to pack up and go back to Beijing today, but two days ago, I got new news that there were nobles traveling in Beijing who were also going back to Beijing, so my father asked me to accompany me. ”
"A nobleman in Beijing?" Hong Tea's heart moved, but he didn't show it, and asked with a smile: "I don't know which nobleman it is?"
"I don't know, my father said that he was going to Shucheng Province to relatives, and he also wanted to return to Beijing, and he was going to arrive in Doucheng today, and then continued to hurry after a short stay, and specially told me to follow him. ”
Hearing that it was arriving today, Hong teased a sigh of relief, and saw that Lu Lianhua's expression was faint, thoughtful, so he asked, "Brother Lianhua, what are you worried about?"
Lu Lianhua shook his head: "I just think it's strange, this noble man has been in province for a while, probably more than two months ago, and Shucheng was not exactly ...... at that time."
"After the Shucheng extermination case, it is too much of a coincidence, could it be that this noble person is the Qin Cha who went to investigate?"
"It shouldn't be, it's said that Qin Cha has left for Beijing to resume his life a month ago, it shouldn't be, I just think it's a coincidence, and my father didn't tell me about the identity of the person who came, so I think it's a little strange......"
"That person's status is noble, Ling Zun naturally won't tell you, it's just to increase the pressure!"
The sudden sound in the room frightened the two of them into breathing, and when they looked up, they saw that Ah Lu was standing at the door with a pot of tea, and Doujiao showed half of his head from behind with a look of grievance: "Young master, the green girl snatched my teapot ......"
“......”
Hong, who was accustomed to being so elusive as Ah Lu, calmly instructed Doujiao: "Doujiao, you go down first, and then invite the master to come, saying that Lu Gongzi is coming." ”
Over there, Lu Lianhua also glanced at the four seasons, and also asked the four seasons to wait in the courtyard.
Ah Lu put down the teapot, and intimately poured a cup of tea for each of the two young masters, smiled slightly, and stood aside, waiting for inquiries.
"Won't the girl sit down and say?" Lu Lianhua looked up at her and smiled, although she was nominally a subordinate of her Lu Mansion, judging from Hong Tuo's attitude towards her in the past, she could not be treated as a subordinate.
Ah Lu shook his head: "I'll just stand and say yes." ”
Hong Tuo didn't speak, only lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and then didn't say anything more.
Lu Lianhua looked at the two of them for a while, stood up, and pushed the gift box that belonged to Ah Lu to her: "This is a thank you gift for the previous incident, and I hope the girl will not dislike it." ”
"Where, where, it's just a gesture!"
Ah Lu happily took the brocade box and opened it directly in front of Lu Lianhua, and saw that there were several books and a string of jade bead bracelets inside.
"These are a few dim sum cookbooks and wild history books, but after all, I felt a little shabby, so I added a string of bracelets. ”
"Childe has a heart, I like it very much, thank you Childe. ”
Jade has the effect of warm aura, Ah Lu picked up the bracelet and put it directly on his right wrist, the size is just right, and he is a lot satisfied.
It happened that Di Gua came over, and when he saw the jade bead bracelet, he praised it: "The color of this jade is good, and the jade spirit raises people, which is a good thing." ”
Seeing Di Hexagram coming, Hong Tuo also stood up, and when he saw Lu Lianhua saluting his son and nephew, he also saluted him together.
Di Guale waved his hand: "There is no need to be so polite. ”
"After all, it's an elder, and that's how it should be. ”
After speaking, Lu Lianhua sent the thank you gift that belonged to Di Gua.
Di Gua took it with a smile on his face, and was still a little polite compared to Ah Lu, and did not take it apart on the spot.
"Since the master is here, let's continue with what Fang just said?"
After Di Hexagram sat down, Hong Tuo pulled Lu Lianhua to sit down, wanting to continue to talk about Fang Cai's affairs.
"What's the matter?"
Di Gua, who had just arrived, naturally didn't know what Fang Cai had said, so he opened his mouth to ask Hong Tuo, and when he finished talking about Fang Cai, he twisted his beard and nodded: "So it seems that there is indeed some possibility." ”
"Listening to what the girl said, does the girl know the identity of that nobleman?" Lu Lianhua was worried, if the other party was an extremely noble person, he must be very careful when walking with him.
Seeing Lu Lianhua's concern, Ah Lu said with relief: "You don't need to care about his identity, your father doesn't tell you that the other party is unwilling to reveal it, you just need to treat him as an ordinary rich and noble family, and be polite." ”
Lu Lianhua is still not at ease, after all, he has been walking all the way since then, but if there are some mistakes, his family will inevitably be affected: "That being said, I am still a little uneasy after all." ”
"This is how much you think, after that person arrives in Dou City today, Ling Zun will definitely pick up the wind and wash the dust for him, and you will understand it when you see it with your own eyes...... I believe that Mr. Lu is a smart person who knows what to say and what not to say. ”
This is true, after all, you have to meet me to determine whether it is easy to contact, although Lu Lianhua was apprehensive in his heart, his face was a lot more relaxed.
"How did the Green Maiden know this?"
Ah Lu replied honestly: "I went to Shucheng once before, and I happened to bump into that noble person traveling, and I just guessed occasionally. ”
It doesn't sound like a lie, Lu Lianhua also believes that Ah Lu is not a liar, and understands that she is reminding herself kindly, and is grateful: "Thank you Green Girl for telling me." ”
Ah Lu, who has never liked to be thanked by others, hurriedly waved his hand and said politely: "Where is it, there are still courtesies, and courtesies are still exchanged." ”
After speaking, Ah Lu's eyes turned around Hong Tuo and Lu Lianhua, and put his hand on Di Gua's shoulder: "Presumably Lu Gongzi still has something to say to our son, so I will retreat first!"
Lu Lianhua did have something to tell Hong, and it was indeed something that was inconvenient for others to hear, although he didn't understand how Ah Lu knew, he nodded politely.
After all, with Lu Lianhua, a guest, present, Hong Tuo couldn't say anything, so he just nodded.
As for Di Gua, when Ah Lu put his hand on his shoulder, he understood, and stood up happily holding his thanks: "Then the old man will go back to the room first." ”
