Chapter 13 Showdown
That night, Cheng Mo came back very late again, and Xiao Jin didn't dare to go back to sleep, so Lu Weimang hugged her and coaxed her in the side room of the main hall while waiting for Cheng Mo.

"The next time Xiaojin clings to someone, you can just let Xiaoqiu accompany her. Children should not be too used to it."

Lu Weimang was thinking about something absent-mindedly, and didn't hear the sound of Cheng Mo's return. When he heard Cheng Mo's words suddenly, he shuddered and turned his head to look at the main hall. In the past six months, he has grown a lot taller, and his figure has become taller and taller, but he has become thinner.

He came over, leaned over and picked up Xiaojin to go back to the house, but was stopped by Lu Weimang, "Cheng Mo, let's talk."

Lu Weimang stood behind Cheng Mo. He was about the same height last year, but now he was much taller than himself, and his straight back seemed to stiffen.

"It's too late, let's try another day."

Cheng Mo didn't look back, he was silent for a moment, and refused to come.

Lu Weimang made up his mind to pay attention.

Recently, Cheng Mo leaves early and returns late. On the one hand, he is really busy, and on the other hand, he is also trying to avoid himself.Their recent atmosphere has suddenly become awkward, and it is no longer the feeling of working together when they struggled together last year.

Under the same roof, Lu Weimang didn't like this kind of awkward and awkward feeling, so he decided to spread it out, even if it was opened, it would be better to return to the bridge in the future, than to be sticky and unhappy now.

Lu Weimang's mind is like a shallow stream, which can be easily seen by others. How could Cheng Mo not know what she wanted to say, but he realized that after this time, they might not be able to continue to live like family members like now, so he thought Instinctive refusal.

"Come here after sending Xiaojin off, I'll wait for you here."

Lu Weimang is a person who doesn't talk nonsense, he sits down after speaking, and waits for Cheng Mo to come over in a while.

Cheng Mo put Xiao Jin back into the room, hovered around the room for a long time, opened the door, and returned to the place just now.

"sit down."

Cheng Mo sat down according to his words, and the two of them sat on the couch with a black lacquered wooden table between them, and there was a moment of silence.

It was Lu Weimang who spoke first, "You know what I'm going to say, right?"

Cheng Mo lowered his head and remained silent under the dim candlelight.

Lu Weimang didn't want to wait any longer. She usually looks introverted and reticent, but when she has something to say, she will hit the ball straight and finish what she wants to say without hiding it.

"Originally, I was a heartless character, impatient to deal with others, but because I had two younger brothers, I did my best to make money. Since the rock candy business got on the right track, I reverted to my old ways, started to be lazy, and just wanted to sell Work hard to make sugar, and the rest of dealing with others and other things are all pushed to you, I admit, in this regard, I am sorry for you."

Cheng Mo still lowered his head and remained silent.

Lu Weimang calmed down and continued, "At first I didn't realize that it was Mama Liu who went shopping at home, but during the Chinese New Year, when I talked to my neighbor, Aunt Li, I realized something was wrong. In her small courtyard, Aunt Li Tell me, in the market, it is worth at least 2000 taels, and there is still no market. Although our rock candy business is only one, but you are not a person who is content with pleasure, you will not spend all your money to buy a house, just for living It’s better, not to mention the family’s food and drink expenses. And Liu Guanshi’s family is such a safe and secure servant, it’s not easy for a person who has just a little money to find.”

After Lu Weimang finished speaking, he looked at Cheng Mo, "Is there anything you want to tell me about this?"

Cheng Mo opened his mouth, but still couldn't speak.

Lu Weimang endured it, and continued, "I wanted to ask you directly when I first noticed something was wrong, but you seem to have noticed it. From those few days, you left early and returned late, and said you wanted to find Mr. Chengyang Changfeng. I vaguely feel that you are repaying us and arranging our future life."

Lu Weimang closed his eyes, "Although I gave you a few wheat cakes, I did it casually and didn't expect you to repay it. Later that night, you were also the one who helped us. People in troubled times are not as good as dogs, let alone the few of us Child. Later we lived with the help of this world, I respect you as an elder brother, just like Cheng Yang and Chang Feng, and Xiao Jin, I believe you think the same way. There is no need to swear or swear. Trust is there."

"It's also because of this kind of trust. When I realized something was wrong, I didn't attack it immediately. I was waiting for you to tell me. Including the sudden axle break of the carriage going out of the city that day, I was still waiting for you to explain to me. I want to hear Your difficulties and reasons, not because you go out early and return late day after day, avoiding me, and tormenting yourself and Xiao Jin."

Lu Weimang thought that he would say these words very plainly, but as he spoke, his voice still trembled slightly.

She is just an older person who has lived a peaceful and clean life for many years, but she may not have experienced more than others, and her mind is more mature than others.

Perhaps Cheng Mo, who saw his family being brutally murdered by robbers, felt more heavy and mature than Lu Weimang.She never thought that her shallow life experience was qualified to look down on others in front of others.

Cheng Mo was silent for a long time, and finally spoke, but his voice was hoarse, "What do you want me to say? Say that I sold your hard work in order to return to Cheng's house? Say that I betrayed you in order to get ahead?"

Lu Weimang was anxious, "You know I don't care about these things, I just want to know why you did this?"

"Yes, you don't care. Many aristocratic families are jumping up and down wanting the method of making white sugar, but you can easily show others the method of making rock sugar. You know what you can get with the secret method of rock sugar, but you can only get it if you take it out so easily." In exchange for money for food and clothing. You don’t care about money, as long as you think you have enough, you don’t care about status, and you never thought of using the secret method to gain status and status. But I can’t help but care.”

"My father was one of the heirs of the Cheng family's head, but he was killed by bandits because of a trip. Sometimes I dream back in the middle of the night, and it is the figure of my father struggling to resist, and the voice of my mother calling for us to leave. "

Cheng Mo was emotional, the veins on his forehead popped up, and his voice was low and roaring, which shocked Lu Weimang, who had never seen such hysterical emotions.

"Maybe it was just an accident..."

Lu Weimang comforted in a low voice.

"It's not an accident! Every time the family travels, they will bring enough guards, and I have never heard of a large number of bandits near Fengxian County. It is a plain area. How can there be bandits haunting unobstructed areas? We traveled all the way from Fengxian County to Nanyang County, on this road, from the plains to the mountains, and all the way to the southwest of Nanyang County, I heard that General Huo suppressed the bandits. Tell me, is this just my own wild imagination? My parents were killed, it was not an accident at all, but someone Pretending to be bandits, deliberately murdering!"

Looking at Cheng Mo, who was emotionally intense, Lu Weimang didn't know how to comfort her. Seeing the scene of her parents being killed with her own eyes, she couldn't understand how sad Cheng Mo was after such a tragic experience.Words were too light, and she couldn't say so-called comforting words.

Cheng Mo took a few deep breaths, as if trying to calm down his turbulent mood.

"I originally thought about taking my sister to live a low-key life, and when the Cheng family finds out that there is no body of us, they come back and find us. Then I will report to the family and let them find out the truth for my parents and avenge my revenge. But no. I brought I stayed with my sister for three full months, and no one came to see us. Only then did I realize that maybe our enemies were obstructing us, but we were indeed abandoned by the family. No one took us seriously anymore. Even if my father was once the best heir to the family."

"Originally, I resigned myself to my fate, knowing that even if I returned to the family, I would be excluded. But you took out the method of making rock sugar. In a large family, only the head and confidantes can accept the sugar workshop. It is the lifeblood of a family's trump card. Every year Bring a steady stream of money and horses to the family. If I take the rock sugar method and contact the family elders who were close to my father, I can get their support and protection. Only when I return to the family and restore my status can I have A chance for revenge."

Cheng Mo's voice lowered, and his tone became calmer and colder.

"So, I handed over the sugar workshop to the elders of the clan."

"I broke the axle of the carriage that day. Now the rock sugar workshop is completely taken over by the servants of the Cheng family."

The night was thick, and the flame of the candle seemed to be unable to withstand the thick night, crackling, but the two people sitting beside the candle bowed their heads and remained silent.

Lu Weimang let out a long sigh, with relief in his sigh.

"when are we leaving?"

"tomorrow."

"Early tomorrow morning, Uncle Cheng will come to pick me up and Xiao Jin back."

"Then go to bed earlier, it's getting late."

After Lu Weimang finished speaking, he got up and stood up.

"I know you want to live a peaceful life without worrying about food and clothing. I bought you 10,000 taels of silver, which is stored in the largest bank in the city. This house is very close to the yamen, and no young people come here to find trouble. Guanshi Liu's family I will continue to serve you with all my heart and soul. Their family is from the mansion, and they are absolutely reliable. You can let them do whatever you need. And sir, they came out from the mansion. The well-known gentleman from Jingzhou invited here will definitely be able to teach you well. The sun grows and the wind grows into a talent."

"I know, you've done enough, let's leave tomorrow with peace of mind. I used to be able to live with my two younger brothers, but now that I have so many things to rely on, I can naturally get what I want and live a more comfortable life."

"slowly!"

Cheng Mo called her by the nickname Lu Weimang had mentioned, and watched her stop and turn her back to him.

"Ran Ran, don't blame me. I don't know how to tell you all the time. I know you have noticed it a long time ago, but you have been waiting for me to say it myself. But I know that once I say it, we can't go back to the past, You won't treat me as innocently as before. But in my heart, we are still the ones who came out of Feng County together and can hand over our backs."

"You know, I don't care about those extraneous things. As you said, what I ask for is food and clothing. Since this sugar workshop can help you, you can take it away. You don't have to feel guilty. What you gave me is more than enough. A workshop is much more.”

After finishing speaking, Lu Weimang walked out of the main room and returned to his room.

There is no hysteria, jumping and arguing, but both of them know that they can't go back to the past.
