Chapter 123
next day
"Well, how do you say that it catches fire when it catches fire?"

"Who says it's not, but last night when we went to put out the fire, we found the yard was full of blood."

"Huh? Blood? Why is there blood?"

"I see, their family is probably being targeted. Didn't you see that Mrs. Xia is also covered in blood and has knife wounds?"

"I saw it, I saw it, hey, I almost died."

"I don't know which wicked person ran out with a smoke, so that the thief missed it."

"Oh, who else can there be?"

The villagers said one sentence to another, and they still didn't forget to glance at the Lu family.

Sifang Xiao Zhou saw this, and hurried back with a blank face.

"What? A thief?"

"Yeah, I heard that there was blood everywhere."

Little Zhou was a little scared, but Mrs. Lu spat directly, "Bah, you deserve it."

"Auntie—"

"What are you afraid of? Hmph, I already knew that this stinky boy is not a good guy. He can't say that he offended any enemies outside. Last time, why didn't other people's children steal, and only stole from his house?"

Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Lu clasped her hands together, "Amitabha, Bodhisattva bless you, fortunately we adopted this family out yesterday, otherwise, if we get burned, wouldn't we have suffered an innocent disaster?"

When everyone thinks about it, yes!
Can't help but rejoice for a while.

Even old man Lu, who had been upset when he returned home yesterday, was relieved at this moment.

Sure enough, how can we know that it is not a blessing if it is a blessing in disguise?
It is also good for this family to be adopted by others.

Hmph, this hot potato, it's easy to continue with Dizhi, and still treat that brat as a treasure?
It's only one night, and such a big thing happened, let's see what they do.

Old man Lu gloated at home.

At the moment, the atmosphere in the main family is indeed not very good.

"How's it going?"

The old man Lizheng looked concerned.

"The doctor from Ji Ren Tang has already visited and said that there is no danger to her life. It's a pity that Miss Xia has been stabbed several times in vain."

"The thief killed today, no, this matter must be reported to the official."

"Hey, old man, are you confused? Report to the official? Do you have evidence? Do you know who it is?"

Grandma Lizheng rolled her eyes at her old man and then sighed: "If the official sent here, let's not say whether the thief can be caught or not, I'm afraid there will be a lot of filial piety."

"Then, then let the thief snatch it for nothing, and burn it for nothing. This almost killed people."

The old man Lizheng was very angry, and Grandma Lizheng said: "Instead of thinking about this, why don't you think about where they live? The old house must not be liveable, and the fifth sibling's place is not spacious—"

These days, every family is not rich, how can there be so many empty houses?
When the clan was worrying about how to arrange them, they heard a piece of news.

"What? Building a house?"

Xia Xiaoqiao smiled and said: "Yes, to build a house, Grandpa Lizheng, I discussed it with Ah Yuan, and we will squeeze together in Grandma's yard first. After the new house is built, all of us will move there. But, I don't know. How to build this house, how much money will it cost?"

Xia Xiaoqiao's call "Auntie" made Lizheng stunned for a moment.

But it quickly reflected, and then stroked his beard and thought, "Two or thirty taels are enough for an ordinary house with three large tile-roofed houses."

"Ok?"

Xia Xiaoqiao was taken aback for a moment, three big tile-roofed houses could be built with twenty or thirty taels?That is really not expensive.

Seeing this, Lizheng said again, "However, your family has a large population, and you still have to build a warehouse and repair a house. If you calculate it, I'm afraid it will cost at least 50 taels of silver. Moreover, your previous house can't be used. It's too biased. I'm here Find you a new one."

After Lizheng left, Xia Xiaoqiao began to settle accounts.

Their family has a large population, and three rooms are definitely not enough.

When building a house, it is natural to plan carefully.

But fortunately, I still have three hundred taels of silver in my hand, which should be enough, even if it is not enough, there is still the box of pearls from Zhu Lingshan and the medicinal materials and jade jewelry from Mrs. Fang.

How else can I say that Zhu Lingshan is a hardworking girl?

This box of pearls can not only be used as ornaments but also exchanged for money. It is somewhat similar to Lu Jingyuan's classmate surnamed Zhou, and they are both caring people.

And the thought of Lu Jingyuan.

Xia Xiaoqiao couldn't help biting her lower lip, looking rather gloomy.

And at this moment, Lu Jingyuan just pushed the door open and entered.

As soon as he entered the door, he took in the expression on her face, his dark eyes flickered, and he said calmly, "It's time to drink the medicine."

"Put it there."

After Xia Xiaoqiao said something lightly, she turned her head and ignored him.

Seeing this, Lu Jingyuan tightened his hand holding the medicine.

"What's wrong? Are you in a bad mood?"

"But you are afraid of suffering and don't want to drink medicine?"

"This good medicine tastes bitter and is good for the disease. Drink it while it's hot. I prepared candied fruit for you. You should eat one after drinking it, huh?"

If Fourteen Lang and Seventeen Lang saw this, their jaws would drop in shock.

Their big brother, whose face is as cold as an iceberg all day long, actually sometimes coaxes people to take medicine in a harmonious way?
Seeing this, Xia Xiaoqiao slowly raised her head and glanced at him.

"Trouble."

There was another silence.

"you--"

"you--"

The two spoke in unison, but Xia Xiaoqiao said speechlessly, "Do you have anything else to do?"

The tone is not good either.

It's no wonder it's good.

It's been eight hundred years since I finally fell in love with one, but I fell out of love before we even talked about it.

Why didn't the sweetheart say it earlier?
The girl who caused me to be so ugly in front of him?
Is this interesting?

Seeing her like this, Lu Jingyuan felt a little confused.

I just climbed into his bed last night, snatched his quilt, and almost died fighting for him, but why did it suddenly change today?
Is it because she is not from a famous family, she dislikes her?
Thinking of this, Lu Jingyuan's hand holding the medicine bowl tightened again.

But he didn't show it on the face, and said lightly: "Drink the medicine."

"I said put it there, I'll drink it myself later."

"I'm leaving after you drink."

"You, you—"

As a result, as soon as he raised his head, he met Lu Jingyuan's dark eyes, which were filled with firmness.

There is no doubt that as long as she doesn't drink, this person will definitely stay here and never leave.

Xia Xiaoqiao: ".?!"

She sighed helplessly, "Okay, I'll drink."

After speaking, he took the medicine bowl and drank it all in one go.

But this medicine is really bitter!
She was so bitter that tears were about to fall.

At this moment, a white and slender hand appeared in front of her, holding a candied fruit between its fingers.

Xia Xiaoqiao didn't want to eat it, but the medicinal soup was so miserable that she finally ate it spinelessly.

"Thank you."

Lu Jingyuan just gave her a fixed look, but quickly withdrew his gaze and said, "You don't have to thank me."

Then there was silence again.

Xia Xiaoqiao looked indifferent on the face, but in fact, she was almost cursing in her heart.

asshole!

Why don't you leave?
Now that you have a sweetheart, why don't you tease this girl?

Although she scolded her so much in her heart, she was even more afraid that she would not be able to control herself. After all, Lu Jingyuan is really good, and almost fits all her fantasies about her boyfriend. Unfortunately——

"I will study hard."

Suddenly, after Lu Jingyuan, who had been silent all this time, said this, he bowed his hands to her, turned around and pushed the wheelchair away, his back was bleak with determination.

After hearing this, Xia Xiaoqiao was at a loss.

"What do you mean I can study hard?"

"What does this person mean?"

 Two updates today, the state is not very good, I will adjust it, everyone
