Chapter 56

Lu Ting gave Fuzhi a popcorn, and said angrily: "Don't look at the second uncle who is smiling all day long and looks harmless to humans and animals. The old man is cunning. He guessed what I was going to do, and he might also guess what I was going to do." I was the one who did the work of Xinglou, and drew a clear line with me in public. If I stood on the wrong team or offended someone I couldn’t afford to offend, the old man would definitely cut off my relationship. Maybe the family tree doesn’t even have my name. If you can't implicate him, you can't implicate the Suzhou Lu family either."

"If my son can get along well and become famous, his old man and the entire Suzhou Lu family will benefit from the act of donating money and gifts today, and he will not suffer anyway."

This one-handed operation conforms to the second uncle's work style, which is smooth and steady.

Fu Zhi was a little puzzled and said, "Young master, Lao Lang still gave money and things. If you don't offend others and make a fortune, if you go around outside and return to Suzhou, then Lao Lang will suffer."

Even for gambling, the second uncle also took real money.

Lu Ting smiled bitterly, and patiently explained: "This is second uncle's brilliance. I spent the money from the family, but it can't be wasted. If I don't make a name for myself, I will probably be caught as a teacher in the family school when I come back. Teach the children in the clan to pay back the money in disguise, but if they don’t come back, or something happens, isn’t the house in the hands of the second uncle, can he suffer?”

Fu Zhi stared wide-eyed, opened his mouth wide, and said with admiration after a long while: "Old man is really, really."

Having said two things, I can't go on. Fuzhi doesn't read much, so it's hard to find the right words to describe it.

Lu Ting squinted his eyes and said confidently: "Fuzhi, I dare to bet you that when we left Suzhou City, Second Uncle took advantage of our ancestral house. It is not afraid to rent it to others. Second Uncle still wants to live in it." A little bit of face, it is possible to store the family property, and it is very likely to store the harvest of the clan field. In the past, the harvest of the clan was converted into cash, which is easy to store. In the past two years, the food will not be sold easily. M, yes, the chances are great."

Fuzhi stuck out his tongue, but didn't speak, feeling that the gap between himself and the young master was getting bigger and bigger, and his words were not at the same level.

At this time, a gust of autumn wind blew up and rolled up a few withered and yellow leaves on the ground. Lu Ting, who was wearing only two single clothes, felt a bit chilly. It was late autumn, so Lu Ting wrapped his clothes tighter and said, "Fu Zhi , see if the horses have finished eating, and hurry up after eating, Chang'an is still far away."

"Yes, son."

On the official road about 240 miles away from Lu Ting, Hong Ling looked at Zheng Yanzhi, who was a little out of spirits because of the rush, and said in a low voice, "Miss, Huangqiao Station is ahead, do you want to take a rest and get a head start before leaving?"

After Zheng Yanzhi got the abacus and formulas, she took them personally as if she had found a treasure, took Hong Ling, four guards and three carpenters who belonged to the Lin family, and rushed to Chang'an from dawn to dusk, covering more than 200 miles in one day, sitting in a carriage They were all bumped so that their little faces were a little pale.

Generally speaking, on a good official road, a horse-drawn cart can travel 150 miles a day is almost the limit. It will be too much for a horse to walk for three days in a row. It is very convenient, and you can change horses at the post stations along the way for a little money, and the horses are full of people, and you can walk more than 200 miles in a day.

"Change horses and continue walking. Aye's life in Chang'an is difficult. If you donate earlier, your future will be much brighter."

After a pause, Zheng Yanzhi added: "It's late autumn, and the roads are blocked by heavy snow in winter. It's even more difficult to travel at that time, and Chang'an is still far away."

"Yes, Miss." Hong Ling responded quickly.

In the mansion of the Lu family who entered and exited Suzhou three times, the second uncle was writing something patiently in the study, stroke by stroke, each stroke was written carefully and neatly, Duo Shou stood aside quietly and did not speak, Occasionally lightly grind ink for my second uncle.

After the second uncle wrote the last stroke, he breathed a long sigh of relief. After checking that it was correct, he carefully put down the pen and said a little tiredly: "After three days of copying, I finally finished the work. I am old. This old bone is not right." Use it."

"Lang Jun, isn't this genealogy very good, there is no need to have more copies." Duoshou said a little strangely.

"What do you know, this is prepared." The second uncle said angrily.

Duo Shou looked at the newly copied genealogy, and couldn't help whispering: "Lang Jun, did you miss the copy? The name of Mr. Lu Ting was not copied just now."

"If I copy it up, why do I have to copy an extra copy? Don't worry about it."

"Lang Jun means"

The second uncle said worriedly: "That bastard Lu Ting, there is nothing he dares to do. I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse to go out this time. As the patriarch, the old man has to make a perfect plan."

Prepare two genealogy books, one with Lu Ting and one without Lu Ting. When the time comes, you can choose whoever you want, and say that the bastard really stabbed the sky, so you won't implicate the clansmen.

Duo Shou's eyes lit up, and he quickly put on his high hat: "This is Mr. Lang's thoughtfulness, I admire you."

The second uncle opened the teacup, poured some vinegar into it, and asked without raising his eyes, "Is everything delivered?"

"I have delivered your words back to your lord. The little one told you every word of your words. Mr. Lu Ting was a little surprised. He didn't say anything, but he said that he would remember what your lord said." No need for the master to ask questions, Duo Shou is very happy Report proactively.

"Just remember it." The second uncle nodded in satisfaction.

It's useless to say more beautiful and grateful words, sometimes they are plain, but they come from the heart.

"By the way, my little one met Xu Daya from the Ya shop on the street, and said that the rent for the house at Qiaotou was supposed to be paid in advance on the [-]th day, but it was overdue now, so I asked Mr. Wang to send the money to the Ya shop before sunset. The house will be taken back in a month." Duoshou said hastily.

"That leaky dilapidated house, dare to open your mouth to ask for [-] wen rent a month, you must be crazy, if you don't pay, you don't want to accept it." The second uncle snorted coldly.

Duoshou said with a bitter face: "Mr. Lang, there is the newly harvested grain from Clan Tian this year. If it is taken back, what will happen to the grain?"

The "stupid" second uncle gave Duoshou a kick, and said with a little resentment: "My old man often teaches you that you can't wear clothes and eat poor. Save, isn’t Lu Ting’s old house entrusted to the old man to take care of it, and it’s still empty, where to store the family’s food, save money and help him look after the house, kill two birds with one stone, how wonderful.”

"Lang Jun, Mr. Lu Ting just asked Mr. Lang to take care of the house, and he didn't say to use the house as a warehouse for the clan." Duo Shou carefully reminded the second uncle.

The second uncle said eloquently: "Lu Ting didn't say that the house can't be used as a warehouse. He can't write two Lu characters in one stroke. It's nothing to use it in his family's place. Besides, that bastard Lu Ting didn't pay much money from the clan. He has learned so much from the clan, and he dares to say no to borrowing the old house from the clan to use it? In addition, [-] Wen is unremarkable, [-] Wen a month, [-] Wen a year, [-] Wen How much more good things can be bought with a hundred pennies, I really don’t know how expensive firewood and rice are, let alone saving three hundred pennies a month, even three pennies, in the eyes of this old man, it’s bigger than the sky.”

Duo Shou repeatedly said yes.

"Lang Jun, Lang Jun" Duo Fu rushed in without even knocking on the door, and said out of breath before his second uncle reprimanded him, "Old lady is back to Suzhou."

"What?" Second Uncle Huo stood up, and asked anxiously: "Mr. Wan is back? When did you come back? Where is Old Dog Chen, has he returned yet?"

"Just got off the boat at the small pier of Kelaiju, and Director Chen is also there."

The second uncle slammed the table violently, and said through gritted teeth: "This farm slave, who received the imperial salary, left his post without authorization. I hate these people who eat vegetarian food with corpses the most. I must sue him. Longevity, I will go to live with you immediately." Let shopkeeper Huang serve the table according to Jun Jun's liking, and tell him that this is a table set up for Jun Jun to clean up the dust, money is not a problem, and it must be done properly."

Duo Shou stood there and blinked, why did Mr. Lang's words be inconsistent? He said earlier that he would sue Chen Xundao, but I thought he would go to the government office to file a complaint. Unexpectedly, his voice changed from Chen Xundao to Mrs. Lin, telling people that it turned into a banquet, and said that money is not a problem, the meaning changed too quickly, and she might have misheard even if she was a bit distracted.

The lord is the lord, not only turning his face quickly, but also slapping his face quickly, just now he said that three pennies are as big as the sky, but in a blink of an eye he said that money is not a problem, and he wants to spend money in Kelaiju.

Of course, Duo Shou just thought about it, and he didn’t dare to say it even if he was killed. A month ago, Mr. Lang casually asked him how he was with Chen Xundao. He was still eating official meals, but Mr. Lang didn't say anything. The next day, Duofu was reprimanded as disrespectful to his master because he walked in the door with his right foot first. He was sent to the farm to do farm work that day. I heard that he plowed the ground like a cow in the field. .

"What are you doing in a daze, don't hurry up." Seeing Duoshou still standing there, the second uncle couldn't help kicking him.

"Yes, yes, yes, the little one will go right away." Duoshou came back to his senses and ran out of the study at a trot, almost tripping over the threshold.

 Without a recommendation, it’s a bit difficult to find this book. After collecting it, I don’t have this trouble. Although I’m still a little thin, for the sake of timely and stable updates, please accept it, sir.
