After eavesdropping on my thoughts, the cannon fodder family went crazy!

Chapter 8 Undercurrent surging
  The matter was so big that the officials patrolling the city had already received the news. It was a case involving human life, and since it was the second son of the General's Mansion, it was natural that the verdict would not be passed lightly.

After the officers and soldiers arrived, they detained both parties, including Lu Zhiyan's box of goods, and then the people watching dispersed.

"I brought it back from outside, but it was detained before I got home. It's really unlucky." Although he was not directly blackmailed by the other party, he was really dissatisfied with the goods being detained. Lu Zhiyan I couldn't help but mutter a few words.

[My silly second brother, what else are you dissatisfied with? If this is really blackmailed, your future business and the reputation of the General's Mansion will be ruined. Which is more important, goods or family? 】

Lu Youyou looked at her second brother, who valued wealth as much as life, and couldn't help but complain.

But he didn't want to be overheard by Lu Zhiyan. After hearing his sister's words, he lowered his head silently.

Lu Jingyuan knew that his son had been away for a long time, and he must have been unable to accept the atmosphere in the capital for a while, so he walked up and patted his shoulder, "It's just a box of goods. After the matter is investigated, I will naturally get it back." of."

"But that was originally a greeting gift I brought to my sister. Now I can't give it directly to my sister." Lu Zhiyan was a little disappointed. If it was just a box of goods, it wouldn't matter if he didn't want it. But he transported it all the way back from outside... …

【So that's it! My second brother is so kind to me, and I even said that he was a petty person. It turned out that he only gave me gifts, so my second brother was so disappointed. 】

Lu Youyou felt that her idea just now was too much, and she quickly tugged on her father's sleeve.

[Hanhan dad, you haven’t gone back even after everything has been settled. My second brother came all the way back and hasn’t even had a meal yet! 】

When Lu Zhiyan heard that his sister was so kind to him, he also stepped forward and said, "Mom, let me hug my sister for a while. The eldest brother and the third brother can see my sister every day. I haven't hugged my sister yet."

Lin Yuyan had also been listening for a long time. After hearing what Lu Youyou was saying, she handed her daughter over to him so that the two siblings could spend more time together.

After what happened today, Lu Jingyuan once again had no doubts about Lu Youyou's ability. While Lu Zhiyan took Lu Youyou away, he pulled his wife to his side.

"Madam, you are really our little lucky star."

"That's natural. You don't even know whose daughter you are."

After helping her second brother solve the trouble, Lu Youyou gradually adapted to the fact that she could only be a baby and could not speak. Although she could not speak, things did not seem to be going in the direction of the original book. Lu Youyou began to suspect that it was It was not his intervention that affected the development of the plot.

[It seems that even if I can't speak, I can still have some effect, right? 】

Lu Youyou, who was held in Lu Zhiyan's arms, was fiddling with the jade pendant on his body and analyzing it silently in her heart.

Although Lu Zhiyan didn't fully understand what his sister meant, he still felt that his sister had probably helped him avoid a big trouble just now.

After coming back, Lu Zhiyan had been clinging to his sister, which made Lu Shengqing a little jealous. In addition, the imperial examination matter had basically been settled, and he didn't have much official work at hand, so he simply took a leave of absence at home.

"Second brother, don't you need to go to the government to hear the trial?"

Lu Shengqing had just returned from the Imperial College happily, and was preparing to spend more time with his sister while his second brother was away during the day. Who would have thought that as soon as he entered the door, he saw Lu Zhiyan teasing his sister with his jade pendant. "That's not important. Nothing interests me more than Youyou now," Lu Zhiyan put the jade pendant directly into Lu Youyou's hand, "Brother, why don't you go to the Imperial College in broad daylight?"

[This jade pendant is of good quality. Second brother, is this considered a gift to me? 】

Lu Youyou didn't care about the jealousy between the two brothers. She only valued the jade pendant that her second brother had just given to her, and couldn't help laughing.

After hearing this, Lu Zhiyan looked back at his sister, "It seems that my sister likes the things I gave you, brother." After speaking, he pointed at Lu Youyou behind him in a showy manner, "Look at how happy my sister is."

Lu Shengqing couldn't care so much anymore and walked forward and hugged Lu Youyou, "It's not good to stay in the house all the time. It's better for my eldest brother to take you for a walk in the yard, Youyou."

The three brothers and their silly father were fighting to coax him and hug him all day long, but Lu Youyou enjoyed it.

There are three different handsome guys taking turns trying to make me happy every day, which is simply more enjoyable than an otome game.

It would be great if I could always be this carefree. Lu Youyou really likes these three brothers.

Because Lu Shengqing took a leave of absence, many matters in the Imperial College were handed over to others. Lu Youyou thought that this would completely avoid the imperial examination fraud that her eldest brother was framed for, but she didn't want to cause trouble and came anyway.

Lu Shengqing was almost unwilling to let go of Lu Youyou now. Even when he heard from the housekeeper that a colleague from the Imperial College had come to the door, he still insisted on carrying Lu Youyou to the front hall.

Instead, he was stopped by Lu Zhiyan, "Brother, those people in your Imperial College are so pedantic. Don't let Youyou get contaminated by their sourness. You'd better leave it to me."

[Colleague of the Imperial College? Big brother, big brother, take me with you! But don't be framed by that person, this is the crime of confiscating your home! 】

Before Lu Zhiyan reached out to take the person, Lu Youyou suddenly remembered the plot of the original book. The eldest brother was framed by his colleagues in the Imperial College! He quickly kicked his legs twice.

Lu Zhiyan and Lu Shengqing who were present were stunned after hearing this. Lin Yuyan was the calmer one, "Zhiyan, let your elder brother take Yoyo with you. You see Yoyo is used to being hugged by your elder brother. Let's find someone else." There’s going to be a fuss.”

How could Lu Zhiyan not know how important the matter was, and he didn't dare to neglect it, so he withdrew his hand and asked Lu Shengqing to take his sister to the front hall.

After a seemingly normal exchange of greetings, the other party also got down to business.

"Lord Lu, several young men from aristocratic families are participating in this imperial examination. This is a letter written by their families. Take a look at this..."

The other party took out an envelope from his arms and said, "Now that we are not in the Imperial College, it is easier to talk. This is the request from the noble families that Master Lu can take more care of his own son."

According to common sense, if it is just a letter, as long as you accept it, it will not be regarded as refuting the face of the noble families. At worst, you can just put it aside and ignore it, and the imperial examination will still proceed normally.

But just when Lu Shengqing was about to reach out, Lu Youyou grabbed his sleeve tightly. Afraid that he was not strong enough, he kicked him hard twice, almost kicking himself out.
