Chapter 224: wrong
Chapter 224 Wrong blame
Lu Ziqin had already jumped out of the car. Ru'an took out a piece of broken silver and threw it to the driver. He gave the driver a thumbs up and said, "Old man, you know so much! I reward you, you don't have to look for it."
The driver took the money, bowed and thanked Ru'an repeatedly.
Ru'an caught up with Lu Ziqin and asked, "Master, let's call a car again?"
Lu Ziqin replied with a swollen voice: "No, I will walk over."
Ru'an followed Lu Ziqin and asked, "Is he angry? I don't want to be angry with a coachman.
Just a driver, what does he know? Can you tell me how he knows?
Besides, I used the elixir given by the princess to cure the poison that has been in me for many years. Humanity says this..."
Lu Ziqin turned to glare at Ru An, and interrupted Ru An's words with a deep voice: "Shut up!"
Ru'an quickly shut his mouth and said no more.
The two of them walked forward in silence. After a while, Ru'an couldn't help but ask: "Sir, the coachman said that this news was spread in teahouses and restaurants. Do we want to check it out?"
Lu Ziqin shook his head and said, "I can't even imagine who did it. What's there to find out?"
Lu Ziqin thought that Gu Huayu wanted to find out the truth about that year and avenge the Hua family before he was willing to talk about marriage.
Until the truth is found out, there will be people coming to propose marriage. This rumor can help him avoid a lot of trouble.
Seeing Lu Ziqin's confusion, Ru'an muttered in a low voice: "Isn't it true that I am inhumane?"
Lu Ziqin looked at Ru'an and asked, "Ru'an, do you want to be a coach in Longxi for a few years?"
The staff of Chang'an Restaurant are trained in Longxi.
As soon as Ru'an heard that he was assigned to Longxi, he immediately apologized, "Sir, my brain can't speak. I originally wanted to say how could I be humane, but I ended up saying it wrong."
Lu Ziqin was so angry that he blurted out: "Go to Longxi and exchange Qinglan back, immediately!"
“Master, I’m wrong. I have to accompany you to Taoyuan Street...”
Ru'an panicked and quickly begged for mercy.
Lu Ziqin stepped forward and said without looking back: "I don't need you to accompany me. You can leave for Longxi immediately and come back after the new year."
Ru'an looked at Lu Ziqin walking away, raised his hand and gently gave himself a mouth, "I told you to talk too much, now it's okay!"
Lu Ziqin walked to the next street, raised his hand to hail a car, and took the car to Taoyuan Street.
This coachman didn't talk much. When he got on the car, he only asked where Lu Ziqin was. He didn't say much after that and sent Lu Ziqin to Taoyuan Street. "My guest, we're here."
Lv Ziqin jumped out of the car and touched his body, then he remembered that he didn't bring his money bag.
Whenever he went out, he had almost no chance to use money unless they were followed by him. Over time, he lost the habit of carrying a money bag.
Fortunately, the coachman stopped the car opposite Huayu Pavilion. Just when Lu Ziqin was embarrassed, he looked up and saw Qingyu coming out of the shop, so he shouted: "Qingyu."
Qingyu Xunxun went over and saw Lu Ziqin standing on the roadside calling him, so he walked over and bowed, "Sixth Master!"
Lv Ziqin said: "Help me pay for the ride, I forgot to bring my money bag."
“Oh!” Qing Yu took some broken silver from his purse and handed it to the coachman.
Lu Ziqin walked towards Huayu Pavilion and asked, "Is Xiaoyu here?"
Qing Yu followed behind, shook his head and said, "No, the princess went to Maxing Street with Uncle Hua this morning, and today she signed contracts with the owners of Jiangnan Trading Company."
Lu Ziqin turned around and asked: "Dechang Bank is already open? Isn't it not open yet?"
Qingyu replied: "It will open in the next two days. The owners who signed the contract today had business dealings when they were in Hangzhou, and the contract signed now contains additional clauses."
Lu Ziqin nodded and asked, "Will Xiao Yudai return to Huayuge soon?"
Qingyu shook his head, "This little kid doesn't know."
Lu Ziqin thought for a while and said, "Would it be convenient to send me to Mingyue Pavilion? I'll go to Mingyue Pavilion and wait for Xiaoyu."
Qingyu nodded, "It's convenient. Mr. Liu, please wait while I go to catch the car."
When Lu Ziqin went to Mingyue Pavilion, Liu Guang got the letter and came out to greet him, "Master Six is here, please come upstairs. Qingzhu, make a pot of melon slices for Master Six."
Qingzhu leaned down and said, "Okay, come on."
Lu Ziqin found that Liu Guang and the others treated him much more enthusiastically, and they really protected their master.
Lu Ziqin went up to the second floor and saw Ruji and Baoer reading a book.
They were both immersed in their books and did not notice his approach.
Lu Ziqin stepped forward and saw a beautifully illustrated book in Bao'er's hand. The pictures are as beautiful as the real thing, or even better than the real thing.
Lu Ziqin frowned slightly and asked, "What is this?"
Ruji and Baoer looked up at Lu Ziqin and quickly stood up.
Ruji bowed and said politely: "Master!"
Bao'er imitated Ruji's behavior and shouted softly: "Master!"
Lv Ziqin pointed to the book in front of Bao'er and asked again: "What is this?"
Bao'er closed the book and asked Lu Ziqin to read the cover. He explained: "Compendium of Materia Medica, the princess sister said, let Bao'er keep these pictures in mind and take Bao'er to the mountains to collect these medicines."
Lu Ziqin picked up the book on the table, flipped through a few pages, then looked at the front and back covers, and then put the book back on the table.
Lu Ziqin glanced at the book in front of Ruji. The cover said Surgery.
Lu Ziqin's heart was shaking like a turbulent sea. The material, typesetting, illustrations, and printing of this book were all exquisite. Even the best Royal Printing Bureau at the moment could not produce such an exquisite book.
Lu Ziqin often walked around the palace. Among the books collected by the emperor from previous dynasties, none of them could compare with the book in front of him.
"Master, why are you here? The princess has gone out and is not in Mingyue Pavilion."
Lu Ziqin nodded, "I know. I'll wait for her here. You can continue and don't worry about me."
Ruji and Baoer sat down to read a book again.
Lu Ziqin walked to the window and looked across the window. In a few days, the Hua family's old house had been cleared and construction began.
Lu Ziqin looked out the window, his mind racing.
"Sixth Master, your tea." Qingzhu came in with the tea and bowed to Lu Ziqin.
Lu Ziqin turned around and nodded, "Thank you, just put it on the table."
Qingzhu put down the tea and said, "Master Liu, use it slowly."
Lu Ziqin nodded and returned to the soft couch, drinking tea while looking at Ruji and Bao'er in the distance.
The two of them were focused on their books and did not pay attention to Lu Ziqin.
Lv Ziqin leaned on the soft couch. He was sure of one thing. Xiaoyu knew many things that did not belong to this era.
He did not believe in evil spirits and heresy, but he could not explain what happened to Xiaoyu.
After a while, Ruji came over with Bao'er and said, "Sir, I'll take Bao'er for a walk in the backyard.
The princess told me that if I read a book for half an hour, I would have to walk downstairs twice. "
Lu Ziqin nodded, "Go ahead and don't worry about me."
Ruji took Bao'er downstairs.
Lu Ziqin walked to the table and flipped through the book Ruji was reading. After looking at it carefully for a while, Lu Ziqin put the book on the table and sat back on the soft couch.
Lu Ziqin waited until dark and did not wait for Gu Huayu to come over, so he had to get up and go back to Chengguo Duke's Mansion.
At the time of Youshi, Lu Ziqin took Ruxuan to Gu Huayu's yard in Wutong Lane.
The difference was that there was no ladder under the wall, so he had to slide down from the tree.
With a "click" sound, Lu Ziqin felt a force pulling him from behind. He looked back and saw that the hem of his clothes was hanging on a branch.
“Pfft” Gu Huayu laughed out loud by the pillar.
Lu Ziqin turned around and saw Gu Huayu and begged: "Xiaoyu, help me!"
Gu Huayu came from behind the pillar and cut off the hem of Lu Ziqin's clothes with a dart.
Lu Ziqin was able to get away, turned around and looked at the clothes hanging on the tree, then looked down at himself, "It's a pity that these are good clothes. Xiaoyu, we need to install a door here."
Gu Huayu looked up at the tree and said with a smile, "I think this is good."
Lu Ziqin stretched out his hand to hold Gu Huayu's arm, pulled her into his arms, and whispered: "Little girl, your dress is torn, you have to buy it for me."
Gu Huayu nodded slightly and replied softly: "Okay!"
Lu Ziqin hugged Gu Huayu and said with a smile: "Okay, if someone wants to buy clothes, just don't install them if the door is not equipped."
After speaking, Lu Ziqin kissed Gu Huayu on the forehead and murmured, "Xiaoyu, I miss you so much."
Gu Huayu hugged Lu Ziqin's waist and responded: "Me too."
Lu Ziqin lowered his head and kissed Gu Huayu's lips. When Lu Ziqin's breath entered Gu Huayu's lips and teeth, Gu Huayu's heart trembled and she couldn't help but respond.
An awkward situation seemed to have never happened. The two became entangled and it took a long time to let go of each other.
Lu Ziqin put his arm around Gu Huayu's waist and asked in a low voice, "Are you tired from standing? Do you want to sit down?"
Gu Huayu nodded, held Lu Ziqin's hand, and walked into the house together.
Gu Huayu asked: "Would you like to drink tea?"
Lu Ziqin shook his head, "No, I don't want outsiders to disturb us. I just want to sit and talk with you to relieve the pain of missing me these days."
Gu Huayu smiled and said: "You still have to drink tea. It's just that I'm not good at making tea. What about you? Can you? I'll boil the water and you make the tea. How about it?"
No one came to disturb him, so Lu Ziqin agreed happily, "Okay."
Gu Huayu carried the pot to the small red clay stove outside to fill the water, and Lu Ziqin followed beside her.
“You went to Mingyue Pavilion today?” Gu Huayu asked.
Lu Ziqin nodded, "Yes, I missed you. I went to Huayu Pavilion first. I didn't see you in Huayu Pavilion, so I went to Mingyue Pavilion."
Gu Huayu explained: "I went to Maxing Street to sign contracts with the owners of Jiangnan Commercial Bank at the bank.
Originally, I wanted to go back after signing the contract, but as a result, Lou Dong’s family in Hangzhou introduced his friend Wandong’s family in Jingzhou. After a long delay, he went back to Wutong Lane directly. "
"The bank's business is going to Jingzhou?" Lu Ziqin asked.
"Maybe, I haven't decided yet. Do you want to do business? It's always good to know more people."
"Do you need to meet all these people? The bank has opened, and you are not very busy?" Lu Ziqin asked worriedly.
Gu Huayu shook her head, "No, I plan to leave the bank in Uncle Hua's hands and leave it to Uncle Hua to take care of. Even after today, I didn't show up personally."
When the water boiled, Lu Ziqin reached over to pick up the pot. "Let's go in."
Gu Huayu returned to the living room and put the tea leaves into the cup. Lu Ziqin poured boiling water into the cup.
After making tea, Lu Ziqin put the kettle on the lower shelf of the wall shelf. He turned around and saw Gu Huayu walking out, so he followed her.
I saw Gu Huayu covering the furnace mouth with an iron plate.
Gu Huayu turned around and saw Lu Ziqin and smiled at him, "I was just talking and forgot to seal the fire."
Lu Ziqin leaned against the door frame, looking at Gu Huayu and smiling without saying a word.
Gu Huayu looked at Lu Ziqin's affectionate eyes and walked towards him.
Lu Ziqin reached out and hugged Gu Huayu into his arms, looking down at her. He said softly: "I miss you very much."
Gu Huayu raised her hands and put her arms around Lu Ziqin's neck, stood up on tiptoes and kissed Lu Ziqin.
Lu Ziqin hugged Gu Huayu tightly, lowered his head to meet her, and kissed her for a while. Until Gu Huayu felt that she was suffocating, Lu Ziqin let go of her and whispered in her ear: "Little jealous guy, don't do it again." You must be jealous out of nowhere, you have to know that I only have you in my heart, huh?"
Gu Huayu turned her head and bit Lu Ziqin's earlobe, applying a slight force. The pain made Lu Ziqin hug Gu Huayu tightly, "Little one, it hurts, don't bite."
Gu Huayu let go of her mouth, kissed Lu Ziqin's red earlobe, and said domineeringly: "Remember that you have a seductive face, don't go out to mess around with girls, and stay away from women when you see them. Otherwise, I Will be jealous."
Lu Ziqin held up Gu Huayu's face and said seriously: "Write it down. I promise, I will stay away from my mother when I see her in the future to avoid any unforeseen disaster."
Gu Huayu nodded with satisfaction, "That's pretty much it."
Lu Ziqin bit the tip of Gu Huayu's nose and said dotingly: "You are such a jealous person, you just drink vinegar without asking anything.
That day, Miss Wang San went to the Duke Chengguo's Mansion. After I got the letter, I went out through the side door and hid until she left before going back. "
Gu Huayu asked in surprise: "You escaped? She didn't see you?"
Lu Ziqin nodded, "Not only did I avoid it, my mother-in-law also avoided it. I accompanied her to a clothing store, a silver shop, and then went to Chang'an Restaurant for dinner. My mother-in-law also slept in the Chang'an Restaurant."
"Ah? That's it! Qingyan, I'm sorry, I blamed you wrongly." Gu Huayu lowered her head in embarrassment to admit her mistake.
Lu Ziqin raised Gu Huayu's chin with his hand, asked her to face him, and said: "It doesn't matter, it's all over. It's okay, she will never come to the door again in the future.
Remember, I only have you in my heart, and you can only have me in your heart! From now on, no matter where you go, remember to take me with you and don't leave me behind. "
Gu Huayu was immersed in Lu Ziqin's affectionate feelings and did not notice Lu Ziqin's worries. He nodded and said, "Okay!"
Lu Ziqin lowered his head and kissed Gu Huayu, and his heart, which had been hanging for a few days, finally returned to its true place.
The two of them sat back on the soft couch hand in hand. Gu Huayu leaned in Lu Ziqin's arms and grasped his knuckled fingers, "Qingyan, why did the Prime Minister's Palace suddenly go to the British Duke's Palace to cancel the engagement?"
Lu Ziqin looked down at Gu Huayu and said truthfully: "That night I went back from Mingyue Pavilion and begged my mother to accompany me to the Prime Minister's Mansion to cancel the engagement.
My aunt feels that this will hurt the face of the Wang Xiangfu and offend people very much.
So I asked my mother to invite Mrs. Cui, the mother of Miss Wang San, out, and I went directly to the Prime Minister to inform them of my intention to cancel the engagement and give them the initiative.
However, even so, the people in the Wangxiang Mansion were still offended. From now on, you should be more careful. Take your subordinates with you when you go out, and don't go out alone. "
"Will they be angry with me?" Gu Huayu sat up straight and asked.
