Koi Fleeing Famine: I Picked Up a Chief Assistant as a Husband

Chapter 14 Not a Slave
Mr. Jiang stopped talking too much, he knew that people like Shen Lanze would not wrong him for money.

Lu Nanzhi went back and told everyone in the Lu family that he could go to the capital by boat.

Everyone in the Lu family was overjoyed, but Mother Lu and Father Lu pulled their daughter over to look them up and down.

"Did you get hurt, did those refugees hurt you?"

"I'm fine, parents." Feeling the love of his parents, Lu Nanzhi felt his heart warm.

"The people on board this time are willing to let us all board because of Lanze." Lu Nanzhi didn't want to take the credit for himself, but wanted his family to know that Shen Lanze was more powerful than they imagined.

Everyone in the Lu family exchanged glances, people who can be on such a big boat, their status is either noble or rich, why would they agree to board the boat because of Lanze.

This question was answered after everyone came to the boat.

"Hey, heaven is jealous of talents!" Master Jiang couldn't help but sigh.

When it comes to the past of Taifu's family, he still seems to remember it vividly, and everyone is a staunch person.

Because of his family's crimes, the Taifu was beheaded for public display, and the whole family was sold into slavery. The Taifu's mother couldn't bear the humiliation, so she burned the Taifu's mansion, and the whole family committed suicide.

Perhaps God was merciful, Shen Lanze was in the academy at the time, so he survived, but in the end he was sold into slavery.

After hearing this, everyone in the Lu family couldn't help sighing, no wonder they always felt that this young man had an unusual aura.

The Lu family's parents even believed that Shen Lanze was a child adoptive husband, and felt that only such a genius was worthy of their daughter, and they did not look down on him at all because of his status as a slave.

Grandma Lu felt that Lu Nanzhi had picked up a treasure. Although she is now a slave, if she leaves the slave status in the future, she can still take the imperial examination again, and maybe the Lu family will be able to enter the court as an official in the future.

Only Lu Sanfang felt that a sold slave had nothing to show off.

The scar in Shen Lanze's heart was brought up again, and it was inevitable that he felt a little sad, and he came out of the boat alone.

Lu Qinghe walked out of the cabin, and said mockingly: "It turns out that he is a slave, and he also put on a haughty look."

Shen Lanze ignored her sarcasm, turned his head and looked into the distance, the waves were rolling and choppy, as if they could swallow everything.

"But that's right, he used to be a high-ranking young master anyway, such a gap is really unacceptable!" Lu Qinghe said this deliberately, wanting to revenge on Shen Lanze for embarrassing her that day.

Shen Lanze didn't speak, just looked into the distance.

Seeing him like this, Lu Qinghe was anxious, walked over and grabbed him forcefully, and cursed angrily: "Shen Lanze, you are a lowly slave now! Hurry up and get me some water!"

"Let go," Shen Lanze said coldly.

Lu Qinghe was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed, "Haha, your slave dares to talk to your master like that, and you still think of yourself as the young master?"

"Your current status is a slave, and you will do whatever I tell you to do!"

Shen Lanze pushed her hand away, and said in a cold tone: "Yes, I am a slave now, but I am only Lu Nanzhi's slave. I will listen to what she says, and I will do whatever she asks me to do."

"You!" Now Lu Qinghe was even more annoyed, his eyes fell on the sea water behind him, and there was a trace of evil in his heart.

Just as she was about to push Shen Lanze into the water, she was interrupted by Lu Nanzhi who rushed out.

"What are you doing!"

Lu Qinghe was a little flustered, and hurriedly put down his hands and took two steps back.

"I, I just asked him to get me some water, and this slave actually refuted me."

Lu Nanzhi walked over and stood in front of Shen Lanze, "Although the government files cannot be changed, he is by no means a slave in the Lu family, and I don't allow you to treat him as a servant!"

When Shen Lanze heard this, there was a gleam of light in his dim eyes, and he never felt this kind of feeling of being protected.

Lu Qinghe was so angry that his chest heaved violently, he gritted his teeth and said, "Lu Nanzhi, do you have a brain disorder! What's wrong with me ordering him to do something, and he won't die from exhaustion."

Lu Nanzhi looked at her calmly, "I saved the man, and if I say no, I won't!"

The quarrel of several people alarmed the people in the cabin, Father Lu walked over and asked, "What's going on?"

Lu Nanzhi briefly recounted the matter, and Father Lu said with a serious face, "We are all farmers, so we have no qualifications to order servants."

"Second Uncle Lu, although we are farmers, we don't buy slaves just to order them around." Although Lu Qinghe was a little scared, he still didn't want to let Shen Lanze go like this.

"What kind of slave is not a slave? From now on, Shen Lanze will be the Lu family. There is no such thing as a slave, and you are not allowed to treat him like a human being!" Grandma Lu walked over and reprimanded him sharply.

Grandma Lu has her plan in mind, and all of this is for the future of the Lu family.

Lu Qinghe said unwillingly: "Grandma, but he is a lowly citizen."

"Slap!" Grandma Lu slapped her hard.

Lu Qinghe was stunned by the beating, and was stunned while clutching his red left face. Grandma Lu sternly said: "Whoever dares to say that Shen Lanze is a cheap person, just doesn't want to stay in Lu's house, you can leave at any time!"

"Grandma!" Lu Qinghe stared at Grandma Lu with red eyes, full of resentment.

Grandma Lu snorted coldly: "I will do what I say!"

The lord just said that Shen Lanze is a once-in-a-hundred-year genius. If it weren't for some accidents in his family, he wouldn't be reduced to this point. This is a good opportunity for the Lu family.

Furthermore, it seems that the adult respects Shen Lanze very much, if they treat Shen Lanze as a person, wouldn't it make the adult feel unhappy.

Lu Qinghe was trembling with anger, but he couldn't refute.

He could only watch Shen Lanze get the approval of Mrs. Lu and the rest of the Lu family. The jealousy in his heart was like a volcano erupting, almost drowning her.

Third Aunt Lu ran over, grabbed Lu Qinghe's ears and twisted them vigorously, yelling, "I don't have that kind of luck, and I still want to be the master. If you have the ability, you can pick one up and do whatever you want!"

"You damn girl, you know how to cause trouble every day, see if I don't beat you to death!" Aunt Lu's slaps landed on Lu Qinghe again and again.

The old lady Lu frowned and said, "That's enough, don't you think it's not embarrassing enough?"

Third Aunt Lu was startled by what Old Madam Lu said, she quickly let go of her hand, and stood aside silently.

"Thank you grandma."

Lu Nanzhi never went to see Lu Qinghe again. She knew very well that if she had appeared a moment later, Shen Lanze might have been pushed off the boat by now.

"It's all a family, thank you for whatever you say." Grandma Lu looked at Lu Nanzhi dotingly.

This girl is indeed a lucky star, with her, the Lu family will be able to survive.

Lu Nanzhi knew that grandma's love and good luck from her koi had nothing to do with the so-called family affection, but it was enough.

Everyone dispersed, leaving only Lu Nanzhi and Shen Lanze behind.

"In the future, no one will see you as a real person. As for the government files, I will help you abolish your low status if I have a chance." Lu Nanzhi really wanted to help him, but of course he also had a little selfishness, and hoped that he could manage his accounts for him in the future.

Shen Lanze looked at Lu Nanzhi with clear eyes, and said softly, "Thank you."

Lu Nanzhi blushed when he saw him, and unconsciously avoided his scorching gaze, "You're welcome."
