Blessed Daughter

"It's okay, your sister and the others were disturbed by a snake." Madam Tongzhi replied.

Hearing that there was a snake, several young people were eager to try, expressing that they were going to catch the snake and avenge the ladies.

Among them, Lu Yuhong was the most enthusiastic: "Snake soup is delicious. Once you catch it, make it into snake soup!"

It was Lu Yuhong who said this. If it was someone else, everyone might laugh.

But Lu Yuhong was different. His status was different, and his status was much higher than that of everyone else present.

Lu Yuhong is not a student of Anzhou College either, he was the one who rose up today and asked to travel with the students of Anzhou College.

In this regard, the people of Anzhou College accompanied him very cautiously, for fear of offending him.

When Lu Yuhong was speaking, his eyes fell on Wei Ruo who was on the other side of the fence.

Sensing Lu Yuhong's gaze, Wei Ruo knew that the greedy young master of the Lu family had already set his sights on her.

Wei Ruo didn't believe that this matter was really about a snake, Xu Yaojun and Wei Qingwan's reactions were not quite right.

It's just that the two concealed the truth of the matter for their own purposes.

Then I saw several young masters leaving the door excitedly and inspecting the surroundings of the courtyard.

Even if you can't find the snake, cleaning up the surrounding area will make the female relatives who are out for an outing today feel more at ease.

Wei Qingwan followed suit and returned to her original seat.

Wei Ruo still drank tea and ate cakes unhurriedly, and did not try to expose Wei Qingwan's lie just now.

On the contrary, Wei Qingwan didn't know whether it was a guilty conscience or something, she kept looking at Wei Ruo, always feeling that Wei Ruo's expression seemed to know something.

When Mrs. Yun got up and went to the side to talk to Madam Tongzhi and the others, Wei Qingwan asked Wei Ruo, "Sister, do you believe that I have encountered a snake?"

Wei Ruo paused for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth raised involuntarily: "If you met a snake, why didn't you run out together, but they came out first, and you were so much later than them."

She didn't want to deliberately expose Wei Qingwan, but she insisted on asking her, so she had no choice but to say so.

"I'm timid. When I saw a snake, I was frightened, and my legs were weak and I couldn't walk." Wei Qingwan explained.

"Then what happened to your sleeve? When was it scratched?" Wei Ruo asked.

"This..." Wei Qingwan glanced at the position of her arm, and explained, "It was scratched by a branch in the peach forest."

"It turned out to be a tree branch. I thought you met a villain inside, broke it, and was rescued by a hero." Wei Ruo replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Wei Qingwan's face turned pale, and a frightened look flashed in her eyes.

Wei Ruo was just guessing at first, because in the original plot, Wei Qingwan was rescued once by the hero Chu Lan when she was in Fahua Temple, and the instigator of that time was her, a cannon fodder who doesn't have a lot of brains.

But seeing Wei Qingwan's reaction, he knew that his guess was pretty close.

"My sister can't talk nonsense, it will damage my sister's reputation." Wei Qingwan said with a serious expression, pretending to be calm.

"It's fine if you don't. Didn't you ask me just now? I didn't say a word at first." Wei Ruo said with a light smile.

Seeing Wei Ruo's smile, Wei Qingwan turned pale and bit her lower lip.

Wei Ruo didn't bother to talk to her. Regarding today's incident, the only thing that made her a little curious was that she didn't know who was the hero who saved Wei Qingwan's beauty.

Is it one of the students from Anzhou Academy resting next door?

Lu Yuhong, Xu Fengyuan, Wei Yichen and several other students from Anzhou College searched around the small courtyard of Xu's house together, and they really caught a snake.

Although they are all students, since riding and archery are their daily homework, it is not a problem for them to catch a snake together.

Especially Lu Yuhong among them is very skilled.

It's just that a few people don't know what kind of snake it is and whether it is poisonous.

The question Lu Yuhong was concerned about was whether the snake could be used to make delicious food.

Just as he was thinking about it, Lu Yuhong saw a man in a dark blue brocade suit and a bamboo hat, and immediately ignored the snake in his hand, and bid farewell to Xu Fengyuan and the others.

Lu Yuhong ran towards the man: "Your Highness Seventh, why are you here?"

Lu Yuhong came to Taizhou Mansion because of Chu Lan. After reuniting with Chu Lan, he not only wanted to be his bodyguard to protect his safety, but also to avoid his grandfather's discipline.

The weather was fine today, and when he learned that the students of Anzhou Academy were going out to play, he left Chu Lan and went out to play by himself.

He thought Chu Lan didn't want to go out, so he was surprised to see him appear here.

"Some things." Chu Lan replied.

"Oh, then be careful, the identities of the people who hurt you have not been found out yet, I'm afraid they will continue to harm you." Lu Yuhong warned.

"Well. I'm fine." Chu Lan looked in the direction of the courtyard.

Lu Yuhong saw it and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Nothing." Chu Lan replied.

"Do you want to stay and have a meal with us?" Lu Yuhong asked again.

"No, I still have some things to go to the north of the city." Chu Lan declined.

"Are you going to find that Xu again?" Lu Yuhong asked.

Hearing that Chu Lan didn't deny it, she acquiesced.

Lu Yuhong said: "He saved your life, you should go to thank him, but judging from the situation when you went to him last time, you will most likely be kicked out this time."

Lu Yuhong didn't quite understand why a farm owner with excellent medical skills was so hostile to officials. He didn't know if someone in his family had been harmed by officials.

"What happened to him before has nothing to do with me. I only know that he saved my life, and we got along very happily before. I regard him as my confidant and friend." Chu Lan said.

After Chu Lan finished speaking, she ignored the curious Lu Yuhong and rode her horse towards the north of the city.

The entourage behind him also rode their horses to keep up.

Lu Yuhong shook his head and sighed: "I really don't understand him, because of a man, those who don't know think that his savior is a beautiful woman! Although the grace of saving life is great, but people don't like to associate with him, so give more money Isn't it all right?"

At noon, everyone ate together in the courtyard, Mrs. Tong Zhi specially invited a cook to come and carefully prepared today's meal.

Especially some wild vegetables - cold Malan head, fried shepherd's purse and fried cress, the ingredients used are just picked from nearby.

Wei Ruo also ate with relish.

In addition, Mrs. Tongzhi also specially invited people to Zuixianju to buy a few dishes. The dishes in Zuixianju are special, which are not available elsewhere. They are delicious and perfect for entertaining guests.
