Chapter 419 Considerate

Lu Yuan carried Lu Zhaoyan to the top of the mountain in one breath.

I don't know if Lu Yuan was tired or not, but Lu Zhaoyan vomited immediately.

There was no one in the temple, but a small courtyard and two thatched houses were built in the open space a hundred steps away. Many mulberry trees were planted around it. To the east were chicken coops and pig pens, and to the west were sheep sheds and cow sheds.

The small yard is surrounded by a fence. The gate in the middle is of little significance. After all, the fence is only half a person's height.

Lu Yuan stepped forward politely and knocked on the courtyard door.

"Excuse me, is anyone here?"

After asking, he did not continue to knock, but waited patiently outside the courtyard door.

About half an hour later, an eleven or twelve-year-old shepherd boy walked out of the thatched house and opened the door to Lu Yuan.

At this time, Lu Zhaoyan had recovered some strength.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, stood up and walked towards the shepherd boy.

The shepherd boy looked back and forth between him and Lu Yuan, and asked, "Are you from the Imperial City?"

Lu Zhaoyan said softly: "Exactly."

The shepherd boy thought for a moment and then asked: "Master said that there will be distinguished guests from the imperial city coming today. They are a father and son. Are you you?"

Without waiting for Lu Zhaoyan's answer, Lu Yuan smiled and said, "Does your master have spies in the imperial city?"

The shepherd boy shook his head with clear eyes. He was not flustered by being questioned by the powerful, but answered frankly and seriously: "My master figured it out."

Lu Zhaoyan sighed: "You are indeed an expert. Is your master at home?"

"Master has entered the mountain."

Knowing that they would come, but choosing to enter the mountain at this time, it seemed that the other party did not intend to see them.

Lu Zhaoyan asked: "I wonder when your master will come back?"

"The old man didn't say anything," the shepherd boy said, "You don't have to wait. He never has a definite date for going to the mountains. It can take as little as three to five days, or as long as ten days and a half before he returns."

Lu Zhaoyan was slightly disappointed.

Lu Yuan curled her lips and pointed at Lu Zhaoyan: "Little master, my father has been climbing the mountain all day and is exhausted. Can you go in and ask for a drink of water?"

The shepherd boy hesitated.

Lu Yuan said again: "You don't want my father to faint at the door of your house, right?"

The shepherd boy looked at Lu Zhaoyan.

Lu Zhaoyan's face was indeed pale and he looked like he might collapse at any time.

But Lu Zhaoyan wasn't tired, it was Lu Yuan who was upset and vomited!

The shepherd boy whispered: "Then you can't faint in my house."

Lu Yuan: "..."

Lu Yuan said: "My father will be fine if he takes a rest. Don't worry, we won't cheat."

The shepherd boy raised his head, looked at Lu Yuan seriously, and nodded: "You don't look like a cheater."

Lu Zhaoyan looked at Lu Yuan and hesitated to speak.

The shepherd boy opened the courtyard door and invited the two of them into the courtyard. He pointed at the stone table and bench and asked, "You can rest here. Without Master's permission, I cannot invite you in."

Lu Yuan smiled and nodded: "Thank you, little master."

The two sat down.

The shepherd boy came into the house and poured tea.

Lu Yuan reminded softly: "Can I have a bowl of hot tea?"

"Can."

Seeing how hot they were, the shepherd boy originally planned to pour herbal tea for the two of them.

The shepherd boy brought a bowl of hot tea and a bowl of cold tea.

Lu Yuan placed the hot tea in front of Lu Zhaoyan.

Lu Zhaoyan: "What do you want for me?"

Lu Yuan said yawningly: "It's not me who is about to faint."

Lu Zhaoyan: ...The culprit still has the nerve to say it.

After the shepherd boy put down the tea, he went to do his own business. Lu Yuan began to observe the courtyard.

The furnishings in the yard are very simple. Apart from the stone table and benches, there is only a water tank and three very wide shelves.

Each shelf is divided into three levels, and a round dustpan woven from bamboo strips is placed on each level.

The shepherd boy was carrying a round dustpan and busy with something.

Lu Yuan asked: "Did you and your master plant the mulberry trees around you?"

The shepherd boy stared at the dustpan and replied, "Yes."

Lu Yuan sincerely praised: "Such plump mulberry leaves are rare."

This was the first time Lu Zhaoyan heard someone describe mulberry leaves as fat.

He probably couldn't figure out this "wild son" who was killed halfway. It was obvious that she didn't have such a crooked heart except for her love of giving people chicken poison.

Lu Yan stood up and walked to a shelf, looked at the dustpan on it, and said with a smile: "Your master also knows how to raise silkworms. He is really good at raising silkworms!"

The shepherd boy raised his head and proudly corrected: "I raised him!"

Lu Yuan looked like he was ignorant of the truth: "You are so young, but you can already raise silkworms so well? How many years have you been raising silkworms?"

The shepherd boy puffed up his chest and said seriously: "This is the first year!"

Lu Yuan gasped: "It's only the first year! Can't you raise a silkworm king?"

Even if you wear it a thousand times, you will never wear it.

The shepherd boy was so complimented that his ears turned slightly red and he whispered: "Do you want to see the silkworms I raised? There are a few bigger ones."

Lu Yuan: "I can't get it!"

The shepherd boy took Lu Yuan to see the silkworms he raised. Lu Yuan praised every silkworm he had raised, and even the ordinary cocoons made him praise them.

Lu Zhaoyan was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He couldn't believe that the little chicken Gu girl who could do things but never speak could give birth to such a shameless son.

He murmured: "Who are you following..."

Lu Yuan also didn’t expect that his rainbow fart would come so easily.

After the shepherd boy introduced his last silkworm, he cleared his throat and said to Lu Yuan: "Master, before he goes into the mountains, he usually goes to the fields to look at the crops. He has just left. If you go quickly, maybe you can I saw him on the ground, but don’t say it was me, Master, he wouldn’t let me tell anyone about his whereabouts.”

Lu Zhaoyan looked at Lu Yuan deeply.

Lu Yuan's lips curled up: "Dad, are you leaving?"

If Lu Zhaoyan wanted to go, he would take Lu Qi with him.

But the shepherd boy had already said that if it were later, he might miss his master.

"Thank you, little master."

Lu Zhaoyan thanked him.

The shepherd boy watched the two people leave and lived in seclusion here. Although the shepherd boy often encountered villagers and visitors from the master, Lu Yuan was the only one who spent so much time making him happy.

He took a deep breath and asked Lu Yuan, "Brother, what is your name?"

Lu Yuan turned around and said to the shepherd boy calmly: "You just need to remember that my father is the Prince of Daliang."

The shepherd boy scratched his head and murmured: "The noble person that Master mentioned is actually the Daliang royal family."

Lu Zhaoyan left Jifeng to take care of Lu Qi. Jifeng did not receive the order to carry Lu Qi up the mountain, so he followed Lu Qi very strictly.

Lu Qi's legs were almost broken, and he gave Jifeng several meaningful looks.

Jifeng didn't see any of them.

Lu Zhaoyan and Lu Yuan went to the back mountain in the direction pointed by the shepherd boy.

Thinking of Lu Yuan's conversation with the shepherd boy, Lu Zhaoyan asked, "Have you ever raised silkworms?"

Lu Yuan said: "I have raised it."

Lu Zhaoyan thought he was raising them for fun, but then he heard him say casually: "One hundred and twenty silkworms can produce one pound of cocoons, three pounds of cocoons can produce one pound of silk, and five pounds of silk can be sold for one tael of silver. One tael of silver can keep you from going hungry for a month.”

Lu Zhaoyan frowned.

Was he... hungry?

Are you distressed? Are you distressed? Why don't you make up for it quickly, son!

It's the end of the month, everyone clear your tickets, it will be doubled~
