As mentioned last time, Lu Chuanzong and Liu Menglilang were in love with each other, and Lu Chuanzong was ready to redeem Liu Mengli for a long time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The old bustard of the Songzhu Pavilion refused to let go of Liu Mengli's cash cow at the beginning, but Liu Mengli had made up his mind and did not hesitate to die in order to leave.
Seeing this, the old bustard was afraid that he would be forced to become urgent, and his personal wealth would be empty, so he was finally willing to let Lu Chuanzong take Liu Mengli away at a price of two thousand taels of silver.
It is said that two thousand taels of silver is not a small amount, so Lu Chuanzong specially returned to Lujiazhuang for this reason, and lied that the prince of the country was studying and advanced 1,500 taels of silver from his father.
The remaining five hundred taels of shortfall were raised in a few days from the classmates before they were completed, and finally two thousand taels of silver were placed in front of the old bustard of Songzhulou.
The old bustard looked at the silver taels of the white flowers, and then looked at Liu Mengli, who had made up his mind, and finally sighed, put away the two thousand taels of silver, and took out Liu Mengli's deed of sale from the secret room of the Songzhu Pavilion and handed it to Lu Chuanzong.
Liu Mengli couldn't help crying with joy when she thought that she would take off the golden hook cage from today onwards, and that she didn't have to laugh in the dust, and that she had a lover who loved her and looked like her.
After the old bustard and Lu Chuanzong handed over Liu Mengli's deed of sale, he forced a little smile, and then thought that when he bought Liu Mengli, he only used a few dollars of broken silver, Liu Mengli has been committed to the Songzhu Pavilion for so many years, and he has made a lot of money for the Songzhu Pavilion, but after all, it is time to bring forth the new when he is getting older, and with these two thousand taels of silver, he is still worried about not being able to buy a girl with a water spirit.
Thinking of this, the bustard was in a good mood, and said a few words about the scene of "a hundred years of good cooperation" and "eternal union" that do not require money.
When Liu Mengli wanted to go back to the dressing room to pack up some things, she found that the old bustard had a honey-bellied sword, and he said it nicely, but in private, he secretly let Gui Gong lock his makeup room first.
Fortunately, Liu Mengli had anticipated the old bustard's thoughts, and had already put the pillow gold jewelry that had been accumulated over the years in an inconspicuous small wooden box and locked it to a good sister in the building.
Before leaving, Liu Mengli gave the silk and jewelry she was wearing to the good sister, changed into a coarse cloth shirt, took a small wooden box, and left with Lu Chuanzong.
Out of the Songzhu Pavilion and stepping on the bustling streets of Hangzhou, Liu Mengli actually had a feeling of being separated from the world.
It's just that Lu Chuanzong beside him couldn't help but let out a long sigh, this time in order to redeem Liu Mengli from the Songzhu Pavilion, he not only lied that he had taken more than 1,000 taels of silver from his father in Beijing to take the exam, but also borrowed his good classmates in the library.
Originally, seeing that he and Liu Mengli were a pair of good days, they should be happy and happy all day long, but they knew in their hearts that this time they risked their father's disapproval, and Lu Jiazhuang was afraid that he would not be able to return to Hangzhou for a lifetime, and he could only wander the world with Liu Mengli, but he was a rotten Confucian, and he couldn't resist it, couldn't mention his merits, and couldn't make a living, not to mention the foreign debts borrowed from his classmates.
Liu Mengli heard Lu Chuanzong's sigh, and hurriedly asked the reason, at first Lu Chuanzong was afraid that Liu Mengli was worried and always refused to say, and later under Liu Mengli's repeated questioning, he had to tell the truth.
Liu Mengli heard that Ailang did not hesitate to borrow debts everywhere for herself, and even ended up in an embarrassing situation where she had a home and couldn't go back, and her heart was both happy and worried.
is happy because he has finally found the true love he has been looking for for many years, and he is worried that he can't bear to have a home for Ailang to be separated from his flesh and blood.
After thinking for a moment, he finally took out a small key from his arms, opened the small wooden box that he brought out of the Songzhu Pavilion, and handed it to Lu Chuanzong.
Lu Chuanzong couldn't help but be a little stunned when he took the small wooden box handed over by Liu Mengli, he didn't see the small wooden box that Liu Mengli carried, but he only thought that the wooden box contained some sundries such as some daily makeup powder and wooden combs for Liu Mengli, but he didn't know what Liu Mengli's intention was in handing over this wooden box to him at this time, and asked, "Mengli, what are you?"
Liu Mengli smiled gently: "Since Lu Lang has redeemed himself for the slave family, then the slave family is naturally your person, this wooden box contains some savings that I quietly saved when I fell into the dust, and Lu Lang will take it first now since he is in trouble." ”
Lu Chuanzong hurriedly said: "Mengli, how can this make me, how can I ...... a seven-foot man in Lu Chuanzong's hallway" Although I was secretly grateful to Liu Mengli for this move, the masculinity in my heart couldn't pull it down, and the two looked at the size of the wooden box even if it was filled with gold and silver, it was just a drop in the bucket after all.
When Liu Mengli heard this, she wanted to cry and said: "Could it be that Lu Lang is disgusted with the background of the slave family, and thinks that these belongings have stained your hands, and the slave family will die in front of Lu Lang, and it will also save you a burden." ”
While speaking, Liu Mengli really made a gesture to jump into the lake on the side.
But he said that Lu Chuanzong loved Liu Mengli and ransomed him at all costs, how could he be disgusted with the other party, and hurriedly pulled Liu Mengli back.
However, Liu Mengli just blindly whimpered, and there was a posture that Lu Chuanzong would not rest if he did not accept the wooden box, and Lu Chuanzong had no choice but to accept the wooden box, and Liu Mengli turned his anger into joy.
Lu Chuanzong thought that Liu Mengli would treat him like this, and in the future, he would have to use all the belongings in this wooden box on her body to live up to the beauty.
couldn't stand Liu Mengli's urging, Lu Chuanzong had to open the wooden box.
However, the things contained in this box were greatly unexpected by Lu Chuanzong, only to see that this small wooden box was not filled with gold and silver, but a large pearl with fluorescent jade, crystal clear emeralds, and bizarre cat eyes, each of which was a rare treasure, and the value of the rough calculation was more than a thousand gold, and I couldn't imagine that there were so many treasures stored in the Liu Meng's glass box.
Liu Mengli saw Lu Chuanzong's expression, and said gently: "Lu Lang, are these savings of the slave family enough for you to pay off your debts?"
Lu Chuanzong thought that even if these treasures were sold cheaply, they could be exchanged for thousands of taels of silver, not to mention that it was enough to repay the debt, even if the silver money withdrawn from his father was enough, he took a deep breath and closed the wooden box, and sighed: "Mengli, I can't ...... these treasures."
Liu Mengli suddenly stepped forward, stretched out her slender jade hand and gently covered Lu Chuanzong's mouth, stopping what he was about to say later.
Then he gently held Lu Chuanzong's warm palm, held it in front of his chest, and said softly: "Lu Lang, do you know that I was originally born in an ordinary family, but when I was seven or eight years old, I was kidnapped and sold into the opera troupe by the wicked, and later the opera troupe was dismissed and sold into the Songzhu Pavilion by the class owner. ”
"Lu Lang, you don't despise me because I was born in the dust, but love me everywhere and pity me, you haven't been the slightest lighter than me for half a year, Mengli is grateful in my heart, I just hate to serve you with a perfect body to repay you, now you and I love each other, the slave family is Lu Lang you, if you make another excuse, the slave family will have the face to live in the world. ”
Lu Chuanzong saw Liu Mengli's solemn words, felt her true feelings, hugged Liu Mengli tightly in his arms, and couldn't say anything else.
In the next few days, Lu Chuanzong took Liu Mengli to sell the treasures in the wooden box, and sure enough, he got thousands of taels of silver.
Lu Chuanzong first returned the money borrowed from his classmates and friends in the academy with interest, and all of his classmates privately knew the purpose of Lu Chuanzong's borrowed money, but they didn't expect that Lu Chuanzong would be able to return the money so quickly.
Then Lu Chuanzong prepared to return to Lujiazhuang, on the one hand, to return the 1,500 taels of silver that deceived his father, and on the other hand, to find a way for Liu Mengli to marry.
This trip was inconvenient to take Liu Mengli with him, so he settled Liu Mengli in an inn in Hangzhou Mansion first.
Originally, Lu Chuanzong planned to only bring back more than 1,000 taels of silver, and the rest of the silver money was left for Liu Mengli to defend himself, but Liu Mengli insisted on refusing.
She knows that she is from a dusty background, and the Lu family is a well-known big family in the south of the Yangtze River, it is not easy to persuade Old Man Lu to accept a daughter-in-law like her, and she hopes that Lu Chuanzong will bring more money back to have a good time up and down, and invite more favors to talk when the time comes.
Lu Chuanzong couldn't resist Liu Mengli, so he had to leave a little money for Liu Mengli from selling the treasures, and stayed with Liu Mengli, and agreed with Liu Mengli that he would come to pick her up within a few days, so he left Hangzhou Mansion and went to Lujiazhuang.
Since Lu Chuanzong left, Liu Mengli stayed in the inn all day long, waiting for Lu Chuanzong to come back to welcome her.
Every day in my dreams, I sometimes dreamed that Lu Chuanzong returned to Lujiazhuang and used the money out, invited many favors as lobbyists, Lu's father agreed to Lu Chuanzong's marriage with her, and he finally joined the Lu family and became Lu Chuanzong's wife.
Sometimes I dreamed that Lu Chuanzong's hard work was fruitless, and he was forced to separate from himself because of the majesty of Lu's father, and took a wife to start a family.
As a result, Liu Mengli was sad and happy, and the whole person was a little haggard.
One day passed, two days passed...... Seven days passed.
Seeing that tomorrow is the day when Liu Mengli and Lu Chuanzong meet to welcome each other, Liu Mengli can't help but feel the gains and losses in her heart.
However, the next day, Liu Mengli waited in the inn until late at night, and did not wait for Lu Chuanzong's arrival, she thought to herself that maybe Lu Chuanzong had encountered something to delay, remembering that Lu Chuanzong had waited like this late at night in the Songzhu Pavilion before, and her heart couldn't help but feel a little sweet, thinking that Lu Chuanzong would definitely wait for tomorrow.
But on the second day, there was still no shadow of Lu Chuanzong.
On the third day, Lu Chuanzong still did not appear, and the uneasiness in Liu Mengli's heart became stronger and stronger......
