Chapter 313： The butler is gone!

In the early morning, the Lu family was shrouded in a kind of mist, coming out of the gate of the Lu family, and not far away was the inland river of Jiangning.

In the current situation, there are not many pedestrians on the bank of the inland river, and Lu Zheng trots along the bank in a short coat. Looking at him, there are a few capable and strong men following him.

Ying'er followed him and yelled, "Does the young man have to show his face in this situation?"

Lu Zheng laughed and said, "I'm not the daughter of a big family, so why do I have to wait for the embroidering in my boudoir?"

Ying'er said: "Ignore you! I will say some sophistry. By the way, the second master and mistress are still waiting, let's go back!"

Lu Zheng stiffened, stretched his waist, and said to the guards beside him: "Okay, let's move away a little bit. They have said this moment and another. Even if they borrow them for a hundred courage in the current situation, they will definitely not. Dare to do it again!"

The guards stepped back respectfully, but didn't dare to go far. All of them were Liu Song's subordinates. They knew the relationship between Lu Zheng and Liu Song very well, so they did not dare to relax in the protection of Lu Zheng.

"Go back! Second brother Jing is very enthusiastic. He brought so many things from Yangzhou, Ying'er, go and spread the word, let second brother come to my yard!"

When Lu Zheng returned to the Lu Mansion, the Lu Mansion gradually became lively, and the maids, servants, and women in each room began to work.

Lu Zheng's residence was a private courtyard, which was supervised by the old man himself. There were five large houses and a backyard. Among the younger generation, no one's residence could compare with Lu Zheng.

Even if Lu Zheng's father Lu Qian lived in the second-bedroom courtyard, it was only a few more houses than Lu Zheng's. In terms of style alone, it might not be as good as Lu Zheng's courtyard.

No way, Lu Zheng's position in the heart of the old man is so high. He occupies such a large yard, with eight standard big girls, four little girls, four other women and two servants.

This is the first time that Lu Zheng has stayed in this yard. The inside and outside of the yard were cleaned up by the people. Lu Zheng lived comfortably, so he was very energetic in the morning.

Back in the yard, the door was already full of people who passed the message. Qi Qiuyue sent a message to let Lu Zheng go over and talk, and use it early.

Mrs. Zhang spread the word that today the guests of Zhang's family are here, and let Lu Zheng go over to visit all the seniors and elder brothers. Lu Qian came over and said that he was going to test Lu Zheng’s studies.

The old man sent a message, saying that it was to let Lu Zheng go over to help the old man organize yesterday's birthday gift.

Under such circumstances, Ying'er couldn't help but stunned: "You are only one person, son, and you don't know how to do avatar, so how can you be busy!"

Lu Zheng gathered all the gates together and said, "Listen well, I'm lack of skills at the moment. You go back and pass a message to your master, saying that I will go to the old man's place to help the old man organize birthday gifts. Did you hear it clearly? "

The crowds all bowed together and retreated one after another, and no one dared to say anything.

Just kidding, the status of Lu Zheng of the Lu family today is not touted. Look at the foundation that Lu Zheng has in Liuhe. It is said that it is a huge fortune of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver a year!

Who among the younger generation of the Lu family dares to stand shoulder to shoulder with Lu Zheng? Not to mention the younger generation, even the older generation, the brothers of Lu Qian can't compare with Lu Zheng!

It is not an exaggeration to say that this time the Lu family ushered in the opportunity for rejuvenation because of Lu Zheng. If not, where would it be the turn to get the Lu family?

The reason why the Gu family wanted to deal with Lu Zheng was because Lu Zheng made them feel a huge threat. In the current situation, Jiangnan is in need of unity, but Gu Tianyang brazenly engages in a fight. You can imagine the weight of Lu Zheng in his heart.

After passing away a group of doors, Lu Zheng said: "Go, go to the mother's side to eat breakfast first, turn around and go back to sleep again, turn to Liuhe in the afternoon!"

"Uh..." Ying'er was stunned and speechless. Didn't she just say to go to the father's side? Why did she change her sleep? Woke up when it was past noon, and returned to Liuhe in the afternoon. Wouldn't it be that the Lu family’s sons were gone?

Although Ying'er feels a little uncomfortable, she also feels that Lu Zheng is really good. See who can be so good? Don't even give the old lady's face?

Look at the Lu family in Jiangning again. Such a big family is now relying on its own son to support the lintel.

...

In the study of the old lady of the Lu family, Hong Quan crouched back, looking at his appearance, it seemed that he could get old at any time.

He didn't make a sound from the door of the study, just standing quietly like a piece of rotten wood.

Lu Shanchang didn't speak, he just stood at the window with his hands on his back, and looked out the window quietly. Earlier, the door came to report that Lu Zhengchen would come over, but now he has already hit him, and Lu Zheng hasn't seen him yet.

At this time, there were already a lot of people around the old lady's study, and the brothers of Lu Qian were here, waiting for Lu Zheng!

"It looks like this kid won't come!" Lu Shan said long. He didn't seem to be annoyed by his tone. His tone was ordinary, as if he had expected it a long time ago.

"Quan'er, go see what this kid gave me as a birthday gift yesterday?" Lu Shan said.

Hong Quan bowed respectfully, and then went out. After a while, he walked in with a delicately carved wooden box in his hand.

He respectfully placed the wooden box in front of Lu Shanchang, then stepped back and said, "Grandma, this box is the gift of Brother Zheng!"

An imperceptible smile appeared at the corner of Lu Shan's long mouth. He walked up to the box, and his wrinkled hand gently stroked the pattern on the box.

After a long time, he opened the brass buckle on the box and suddenly laughed. His laughter became louder and louder, and finally he laughed loudly.

Hong Quan's face became more solemn, lowered his head and pressed his lips tightly, Lu Shanchang suddenly turned his head to look at him and said, "Quan'er, do you come over and take a look too?"

Hong Quan is so old that he looks even older than Lu Shanchang's age, but Lu Shanchang called him by his nickname, which sounds kind but also weird.

Hong Quan slowly moved closer, and his pupils suddenly shrank when he saw what was in the box: "This...Master Zheng really got a lot of money. This... is the whole bill of one hundred thousand taels of silver?"

Lu Shanchang nodded and said, "Yes, one hundred thousand taels of silver is a huge fortune for any family. Zheng'er threw so much silver so proudly, it's embarrassing for him!

But this is not the point. Take a closer look and one of them is not a silver ticket! "

Hong Quan was taken aback for a moment, and he saw that there was a piece of paper in it. He opened the silver slip and saw the paper. His hand suddenly retracted as if he had been bitten by a snake, and his face turned into a dead gray.

A piece of white paper with teeny lower letters written on it: "If grandfather wants to return a gift, a Hong Quan is enough!"

Just such a sentence, plain and clear, Hong Quan saw this sentence as if he had knocked over a five-flavored bottle. His mood is hard to describe in words...

He has been a slave to the Lu family for a lifetime and has always been loyal to Lu Shanchang. Unfortunately, this time he was fainted, but this time he made a mistake. He thinks he is smart, but he doesn't know how stupid he is. Of course, he can only sigh that he is bad luck and that he met Lu Zheng, the evildoer...

One hundred thousand taels of silver was exchanged for one Hong Quan. Hong Quan knew that he was not worth one hundred thousand taels of silver.

"Master, I'm going to see Young Master Zheng!" Hong Quan said with difficulty.

Lu Shanchang sighed lightly, and said, "Zheng'er, this kid is not very old, but he is very thoughtful. He gave me one hundred thousand taels of silver with obvious intentions. He saw through that the Lu family is now an empty shell, the Lu family In order to rejuvenate, apart from cultivating talents, in addition to persisting in poetry and heirlooms, the most important thing is wealth!

Zheng'er can give one hundred thousand taels today, and maybe another one hundred thousand taels next time, and even the money in the future can continue to flow. Quan'er, can you understand what I said? "

"Master, don't say anything..." Hong Quan said, his voice suddenly changed, and then tears burst into tears. He suddenly became extremely excited, completely out of control.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect? He has followed Lu Shan for the rest of his life, can the friendship between the two be false? However, Lu Shanchang had to move him, because he was a betrayer, and personal friendship could not override family interests.

Lu Zheng exchanged one hundred thousand taels of silver for Hong Quan. Was he just Hong Quan? The so-called short-mouthed cannibals and soft-handed, how many bargaining chips the Lu family still have to play against Lu Zheng?

Lu Zheng belonged to Lu Zheng, and the Lu family belonged to the Lu family, but Lu Zheng came from the Lu family. The Lu Family's rise and rejuvenation are inseparable from Lu Zheng. Lu Zheng used a box of silver to explain all of this thoroughly.

And all of this is understood by Lu Shan, and Hong Quan can understand it. It is because he understands that his mind is complicated... Hong Quan slowly retreats and quit the study. It is difficult for him to take every step because he understands in his heart that Once you retreat, there is no possibility of entering again. From then on, the dust will return to the dust, the dirt will return to the earth, his time limit is up!

"Quan'er..." Lu Shanchang suddenly stopped him, Hong Quan lowered his head and stopped, Lu Shanchang said, "Your return path may be the best, it's better than the future you can foresee..."

Hong Quan looked up and then lowered his head, all his emotions were silent. If Lu Shanchang is dead, the Lu family is controlled by Lu Qian, and Hong Quan still has no place to bury him.

The contradiction between Hong Quan and Lu Qian is irreconcilable, because what is behind it is the grievances of the previous generation of old ladies.

Hong Quan absolutely can't let the second room gain power, because of this, he risked almost causing a big mistake. Lu Zheng couldn't spare him, he was dead.

Lu Qian hated Hong Quan for failing to kill him for decades, and Lu Zheng put Hong Quan to death in an understatement...

Hong Quan left. Outside the old lady's study, Lu Qian was so angry that he didn't come out. He waited for more than an hour, but Lu Zheng didn't even see his shadow.

Lu Zheng didn't see him, and Lu Shanchang didn't see him either. In this way, no one could see him. The degree of embarrassment can be imagined.

He really couldn't bear it, flung his sleeves and left and returned to his residence. The fire held in his chest couldn't be restrained, and he sent it out at Ximenye.

Ximen Ye let Lu Qian yell at him. When his mood stabilized a little, Ximen Ye said, "Second master, there is one thing you should listen to. The housekeeper just disappeared..."
