Chapter 221;

Lu Kang hurriedly got up and walked out.

At the same time, Lu Yaoyao's carriage had left the capital and arrived outside the farm.

Just about to enter the farm, but was stopped by someone.

"Is Lu Wenzong in the car?"

A young man's voice came.

Everyone in the carriage was taken aback.

Lu Yaoyao turned her head to look at Qiushuang and Qiuyu beside her, her eyes full of inquiries.

Who is Lu Wenzong?
Similarly, Qiushuang and Qiuyu also looked confused, and it was the first time they heard Lu Wenzong's name.

"Who are you? Why did you stop my county lady's car?"

Just as the coachman finished speaking, the young man's voice came again.

"It's really Lu Wenzong, Dong Shuqing is here to visit."

Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao in the carriage pointed to himself and asked the two people next to him, "Did he mean me by Lu Wenzong?"

"When did I have this name? Why didn't I know?"

Qiu Yu was also at a loss. Just now the driver had declared his family name, but the other party was still so sure. Then Lu Wenzong must be referring to Lu Yaoyao.

But when did this young lady of her family have such a name?

On the other hand, Qiushuang next to her suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, miss, this is you that Lu Wenzong was talking about."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Lu Yaoyao and Qiu Yu turned their heads together.

Qiu Shuang quickly explained the reason for Lu Wenzong's title.

"When the servant was inquiring about the news of the capital, I heard someone mention it by chance. There was a sudden call from outside just now, and the servant was a little unresponsive."

"So this is ah."

Lu Yaoyao was a little speechless.

She really didn't expect that she had just pissed off someone once in the court, and the outside world would spread the word that she was so powerful.

But as far as Lu Wenzong's title seems to be very powerful, she is very satisfied.

"Go and ask who is out there."

Hearing this, Qiu Shuang raised the curtain of the car and poked her head out to ask, "Who is the young master? Why do you want to see my lady?"

"Next, Dong Shuqing, a son of the Dong family in Jinzhong, who has admired Lu Wenzong's name for a long time, is here to pay my respects."

When Lu Yaoyao in the carriage heard that the other party was a son of the Dong family in Jinzhong, he probably guessed the other party's real intention.

It is false to pay a visit, but it is true to inquire about the news.

"No, it's really rude for a big man to come and stop my car."

After hearing this, Qiu Shuang said to Dong Shuqing who was outside: "Mr. Dong, my lady is a boudoir girl. It's really rude for you to stop the car in public."

"Please get out of the way."

Hearing this, Dong Shuqing was startled for a moment, then with an embarrassing look on his face, he cupped his hands and bowed embarrassingly.

"Dong was abrupt, please forgive me, Lu Wenzong."

With that said, he led the people back to the side.

Seeing this, the coachman drove the carriage directly into Zhuangzi.

"What shall we do, son?"

A servant beside Dong Shuqing asked.

"Go back first."

He knew that he would not see Lu Yaoyao today, so he blamed him for not thinking carefully.

He is a strange foreigner, and it is really inappropriate for him to come here to ask for a boudoir woman.

In the manor courtyard, as soon as Lu Yaoyao sat down, Qiu Shuang said, "Miss, members of the Dong family, I am afraid that they came to the door at this time to present something for you."

"I'm afraid the visitor is not good."

"It's okay."

Lu Yaoyao waved his hands and said, "This time we dealt with the Gao family, we have already offended all those families, and there is not much more than the Dong family."

To deal with the Gao family, it is necessary to match up with the aristocratic family. She had already prepared for this point, and she had already thought of it when she first offered things.

The reason why she contributed the two skills of papermaking and printing, to put it bluntly, was that she wanted Emperor Hongwen to prepare first, so as to reduce the family's ability to check and balance him.

This will be of great benefit to her in dealing with the Gao family and the aristocratic family.

"I'm a little hungry, ask the kitchen to prepare something to eat."

Qiu Yu hurriedly retreated.

She got up and went to the study, and quickly wrote a letter to Qiushuang.

"Find someone to send it to Jinyang as quickly as possible and hand it over to Gu Jian."

After accepting the letter, Qiushuang stepped back.

"Miss, the second uncle is here."

Qiu Yu, who went back and forth, was followed by his second uncle Lu Kang.

"Second Uncle, why did you come to my place?"

Lu Yaoyao stood up in surprise.

"Girl, there's been a lot of movement today."

"You know that too?"

Lu Yaoyao smiled, called his second uncle to sit down, and asked Qiu Yu to prepare herbal tea.

"Girl, tell the second uncle honestly, how much did you get involved in today's matter?"

What he asked was how much was mixed, not whether it was mixed, which meant that he already believed in his heart that today's matter had something to do with Lu Yaoyao in all likelihood.

"Second uncle is right. I just found a way to feed everyone because there are too many people in the farm. I, a woman from the farm, have the ability to meddle in the important affairs of the court."

Hearing this, Lu Kang was stunned for a while, then took a deep look at Lu Yaoyao, and continued, "It's true, your grandfather is very worried, so tell me to come here and remind you to be careful."

"Ah."

"Thank you for your grandfather's concern, I will save you if you are gone."

She didn't intend to tell Lu Kang the truth. The less people know about some things, the better. Knowing too much will only increase the pressure in their hearts, which is not a good thing.

"Girl."

"Second Uncle rarely comes to my village, and I'll have someone send you back after I finish my meal here."

Lu Kang nodded, and didn't plan to say what he wanted to say.

He knew the truth about the death of his younger sister Lu Yunjun.

It is inevitable for Lu Yaoyao to deal with the Gao family, but if he deals with the Gao family, he will confront the aristocratic family, these things cannot be avoided.

She didn't say much to herself, and Lu Kang knew that she didn't want to put pressure on the Lu family.

It is not beautiful to continue to talk too much.

"Second uncle, how is business doing recently?"

"It's not bad, but it's still affected a bit because of the drought."

With the advent of the drought, the spending power of many ordinary families has been greatly reduced, and their businesses will naturally be affected.

"This time it's not over yet, Second Uncle can take a little rest recently."

"Huh? What's the end?"

Lu Kang was a little dazed.

"I bought a lot of chickens, ducks and geese earlier, does Second Uncle know?"

Lu Kang nodded.

"The drought is extreme and locusts, I have already asked people to pay attention, there are already some signs, I am afraid that it will not be long."

As soon as these words came out, Lu Kang stood up in shock, his eyes widened.

"You mean, there will be a plague of locusts?"

The locust plague, Lu Kang has experienced it before, and even thinking about that scene now makes him shudder.

"It's very possible. I believe that within a few days, rumors will spread."

"What should I do? If there is a plague of locusts, your side"

"Yaoyao, why don't you go back to live in the capital."

Hearing this, Lu Yaoyao shook his head and said, "Second Uncle, don't worry, I'm ready, so don't worry."

"There is no definite news about this matter yet, Second Uncle, don't spread the word, let's prepare secretly first."

Lu Kang nodded repeatedly.He also told Lu Yaoyao to pay attention to it, and if it didn't work, he would go back to the capital.

Later, I had dinner at Zhuangzi and stayed there shortly.
