Lu Ting waited in the wind and snow for more than a quarter of an hour, his hands and feet were almost numb from the cold, and then he waited for Zheng Yanzhi, who arrived late.

"Miss Xiaozhi, you're finally here, I thought I couldn't see you." Lu Ting took the initiative to meet Xiaoqiao when he saw the maidservant.

I haven't seen her for a few days, and I feel that Xiaoqiao has changed a little, her clothes are only [-]% to [-]% new, there are fewer jewelry on her body, and she is a little haggard, as if life is not going well.

It can't be. Being made things difficult by the master.

Zheng Yanzhi took a look at Lu Ting, and quickly said indifferently: "My family still has things to do, and there are many things that I can't control myself. I'm not as free and easy as Mr. Lu, and I can go wherever I want."

This prodigal son, with dark circles and bloodshot eyes, must have had a fun and ridiculous night with some prodigal in Wanhuayuan last night.

Unexpectedly, the prodigal son could write poems, and even the famous Confucian Du Zhengzang was full of praise for him, but his talent was not used on the right path.

Hey, there seems to be a bit of jealousy in the words, needless to say, I was not happy to let the little girl know about what happened last night.

Just by looking at that face, it seemed to be colder than the fine snow on the ground.

As a human being, Lu Ting II could not have noticed the change in Xiaoqiao's feelings towards him. When he was in Suzhou, he was too busy to take care of himself. He hadn't found a backer yet, so he could only put aside some unrealistic ideas. Now it is different, and he barely stands firm. The heels of the feet also embraced the golden thighs, and they had to think about themselves.

The song "Golden Thread Clothes" is well written. There are flowers that can be folded straight, but don't wait for flowers without flowers to fold branches.Seeing that the little maidservant is becoming more and more juicy day by day, Lu Ting is a little worried that she will be "broken first" by others one day.

It’s good to be jealous, it means that you care about yourself, if it’s changed to future generations, those girls who hold up half the sky will hear that their boyfriend is going to have fun, and when they get angry, they will raise their knives and shout that they want to cut off the third leg.

Coaxing a proud little girl is simply child's play for Lu Ting.

Lu Ting looked at the look on Xiaoqiao's maidservant's face, and said with concern: "I remember Xiao Zhigu said before that it's more free to do things, and you have to work so hard during the big festivals. Could it be that people from Zheng's mansion bullied you?"

Where did Zheng Yanzhi experience this kind of thing before, especially when Lu Ting was still staring at her face, the two of them were standing close to each other, feeling that the hot air from Lu Ting had sprayed onto her face, making Zheng Yanzhi's little heart beating He didn't stop, his face was still a little hot, and he didn't know if it was because of shyness or the hot air from his mouth.

Somewhat unnaturally, she took a half step back, and Zheng Yanzhi said angrily, "That's right, many people bullied this weak woman from my family."

I was in a bad mood early in the morning and felt that everyone around me was not treating me well.

Hearing this, Lu Ting sighed and said: "It is said that rich families are as deep as the sea, and those famous families do not give way too much. They all have high eyes and many rules. A weak girl must have suffered a lot to work in such a rich and famous family."

The maidservant Xiaoqiao is from the Zheng family in Xingyang. The Zheng family in Xingyang is one of the seven clans and five surnames.

"It's okay, it's just that there have been a lot of things recently, Mr. Lu will take care of it." Zheng Yanzhi replied softly with a trace of uneasiness in her eyes.

Judging from Lu Ting's tone, it seems that he has some grudges against famous families. Wouldn't he have been suppressed by famous families before, so that he has opinions on famous families?

Lu Ting looked left and right, they were standing in a remote corner outside Zheng's mansion, no one was paying attention, the little maid Hong Ling was also standing nearly three feet away, she must not be able to hear her, so she lowered her voice and said: " Miss Xiaozhi, have you ever thought about getting rid of your slave status, leaving the old lady, and leaving the Zheng residence?"

What, exempt from slavery?Leaving the old lady, leaving the Zheng mansion?

Zheng Yanzhi was startled when she heard the words, and quickly asked: "Young Master Lu Lu, why did you say that?"

Lu Ting just opened the door and looked left and right, looking a little sneaky, Zheng Yanzhi was afraid that Lu Ting would touch her, so she didn't expect to ask such a question suddenly.

This big idiot has never been aware of his true identity. This is within Zheng Yanzhi's expectations. After all, the two are in different positions, and he concealed it very well. It's just that Lu Ting said that he would get rid of his slave status and leave the Zheng Mansion. , what is he going to do?
You don't want to elope with yourself, do you?
Thinking about this possibility, Zheng Yanzhi was moved, amused, and faintly surprised.

Lu Ting said with some pride: "Miss Xiaozhi, you are well informed, do you know what happened last night?"

Do you want to show off this kind of thing?
Zheng Yanzhi's mood that had just recovered suddenly disappeared, and she said a little coldly after hearing the words: "Mr. Lu has won the bull head lamp and stayed overnight in the Wanhuayuan. Chang'an City has already heard about it. My family here congratulates you."

This little maidservant is shrewd, but her EQ is still low, and her little face became too obvious too quickly.

Lu Ting pretended not to see it, smiled mysteriously, and then said softly: "I also want to congratulate Miss Xiaozhi here."

"Congratulations? What's the matter with the slave family?" Zheng Yanzhi said with some doubts.

Lu Ting completed the magpie bridge to win the lamp by himself, and he went alone with the bull head lamp to have fun.

Lu Ting said proudly: "Miss Xiaozhi only knows one thing, but not the other. Last night she won the bull head lamp. Besides the bull head lamp, she also has a thousand prizes."

"One thousand prizes? Pingkang Fang is so generous?" Zheng Yanzhi asked in surprise.

The highest reward for winning the lamp at Queqiao is the bull head lamp. The rest of the people who pass through different barriers can get gifts of different values, most of which are some silk and four treasures of the study.

Lu Ting shook his head: "Of course not. This is a bet between Da Changjin and Golden Mouse. If I win, I will get a thousand guan. Now I have won the lottery."

After all, Lu Ting briefly explained what happened.

After talking about it, Lu Ting said a little unconfidently: "This Qianguan is not too much, and it is not too little. I said in Suzhou that if I have the ability, I will definitely repay Miss Xiaozhi. If it is easy for ordinary people to say, Miss Xiaozhi is from the Zheng Sect of Xingyang, I wonder if this thousand guan can make the Zheng Sect of Xingyang release her."

After thousands of years of accumulation and development, the power of the gentry represented by the seven clans and five surnames is growing. Almost every family enjoys high prestige and status in society and is admired by the world. The generals and the prime ministers even reached the point where they could compete with the superior royal family.

The establishment and development of the Sui and Tang Dynasties depended heavily on the support and support of wealthy families. Because these big families were flourishing and large in scale, they could influence the government to a large extent, and their status was extremely respected. Out of sight.

Tang Wenzong proposed marriage to Zheng Qin, hoping to marry a daughter of the Zheng family as the crown princess. As one of the five surnames and seven Wangs, the Zheng family of Xingyang looked down on the royal family of Li and Tang, thinking that their blood was impure and not real fame. Cui Gao, a nine-rank official who was born in Qiwang with five surnames, would not let his granddaughter marry the crown prince;
The official of Li Yi's government paid homage to the prime minister and proposed marriage to Qiwang of five surnames for his son.The five surnames and seven Wangs don't even look down on the royal family, let alone the prime minister?Li Yifu's nose was in the dust, but he couldn't marry a woman with five surnames;

Xue Yuanchao, who was also the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, said in his later years that he had three major regrets in his life: first, he failed to take part in the imperial examination to get a Jinshi, second, he failed to marry a woman with five surnames in Shandong, and third, he could not participate in the compilation of national history;

When Cui married Cheng Yaojin, she was already a grandma in the Tang Dynasty (marriage was early in ancient times, and one could become a grandma at the age of 40). Cheng Yaojin was ready for the title of Mrs. Suguo, but she couldn’t marry Everyone is a lady, but in the end she can only marry a grandma's widow Cui Shi, even a widow, not only Cui Shi, but also Cheng Yaojin feels wronged by Cui Shi, and is obedient to her;

There are many other high-profile deeds of the seven clans and five clans. For them, nothing is more important than honor. In the market, the price of an ordinary maid is around ten guan, and the young and beautiful ones can reach hundreds or even more. Ting has a thousand strings in his hand, but for the huge Zheng family in Xingyang, he is really not sure that they will let them go.

Zheng Yanzhi's eyes lit up all of a sudden: What, this prodigal son went to participate in the magpie bridge to win the lantern, unexpectedly...to win the lottery, and then redeem himself?
