Chapter 14 River Chong Duan Home
Lu Yang was baffled by the young man's question, and said in a daze, "Yes, yes! What's wrong?"
The boy suddenly laughed loudly, and laughed loudly: "I recognize you as a brother, you really look like me. Someone lent me a copper coin back then, and I waited for a long time on the road to return it to him. , I was almost starved to death, and that uncle showed up. Because of this, my mother scolded me, so that I never dared to borrow money from others."
Lu Yang was puzzled, and couldn't help but said: "Then you lend me the copper coin, my aunt knows, isn't it..."
"I used to be afraid of my old lady, but now I'm not afraid." The young man patted his chest, showing no fear, and said, "Now that I have left my hometown, I am going to go out to learn art, and my old lady can't control me."
"That's it!" Lu Yang frowned and said, "Big brother, where do you go to learn art? I'll find you later."
The young man thought for a while, and then said: "Brother Lu Yang, don't call me big brother from now on, I'm not used to it, my name is Li Xiaopang, everyone calls me Xiaopang, you should call me like that in the future! As for me I haven't decided where to study art yet, maybe Minsheng Academy, maybe Dihu Academy, in short, I haven't decided yet."
Just as Lu Yang was about to speak, Li Xiaopang interrupted him and said, "I know you want to give me back the copper coin, but it's not worthwhile for you to look for me all over the world for a single coin, so let's just treat it as if I gave it to you. Well, if you feel sorry in your heart, we will meet again in the future, how about you return me the capital with interest?"
Lu Yang thought for a while, and now there is only one way. He clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, little fat brother. I will definitely return the capital with interest when we meet in the future."
Li Xiaopang obviously has something to do, he glanced at the sky, and said: "It's getting late, I'm going to the city to find my uncle, so I won't talk to you for now, and I'll sit down and talk with you when I have a chance." After finishing speaking, he spoke to Lu Yang waved his hand and then ### left.
Seeing the direction in which Li Xiaopang was leaving, Lu Yang looked away for a moment before walking forward.
Hechong City is full of traffic and pedestrians, and there are many shops on both sides of the road, which is a prosperous scene.
The first time Lu Yang came here, he didn't know how to get to the Duan family. He found a shop and asked for the detailed address, then ### walked over.After walking for about three streets, they came to the gate of a large mansion. Outside the gate stood two guards with long swords on their waists. They looked solemnly and looked at the passers-by with cold eyes.
Duan's mansion is much smaller than the gate of Lu's mansion. The vermilion gate shows the status of aristocrat, and there are two big golden characters engraved on it - Duan's mansion.
Lu Yang glanced at the door plaque, came to the door, and said, "Excuse me, is this the Duan Mansion?"
The two guards were taken aback for a moment, perhaps it was the first time they saw a child of Lu Yang's age come to question him!However, when they saw Lu Yang's disheveled clothes, they showed disdain at the same time, and one of them even sneered, "Beggars, this is Duan's mansion, not a place for you to beg for food. Get out!"
Hearing this, Lu Yang's face became a little ugly. There are too many low-level people in this world. He is considered a beggar just because of his disheveled clothes. If he is really disheveled, who will he be regarded as? ?Lu Yang knew that if he wanted to enter Duan's mansion, he had to send a message to two guards, so he didn't bother with them, saying: "I want to find your master, just say that there is a guest asking to see you."
As soon as these words came out, the two guards burst out laughing, looking at Lu Yang as if they were looking at an idiot.
Jiang Dong couldn't stop laughing, he leaned forward and backward, and said after a long time: "Beggar, did you make a mistake? You are the only one who still calls himself a guest? Go back where you came from, don't waste your saliva here."
Lu Yang was a little angry. He kept talking like this, but the other party continued to sneer, and said coldly, "Please be careful with what you say, I have something important to do with your master."
After all, Lu Yang has read a lot of poetry and books. Although it was his first time to leave the Lu Mansion, he knew how to deal with them.Such guards typically bully the weak and fear the strong, the weaker you are, the more the other party will bully you.If you get hard, the other party will not know your identity for a while, but will be a little afraid.
Sure enough, the two guards saw Lu Yang's attitude forceful, and couldn't figure out where he came from, so they glanced at each other.
Jiang Dong nodded to another guard, and said in a low voice: "You stay here and watch him not run away, I'll go find Steward Wu."
"Don't worry, a little boy, can't I still see it?" the guard said confidently.
Jiang Dong glanced at Lu Yang, turned around and walked into the mansion. About half an hour later, a middle-aged man who appeared to be in his 40s came out.The man's skin is slightly fair, like a woman's skin, which shows that he has a very high status in the Duan family. Although he is not as good as the master of the Duan family, he is much superior to ordinary servants. He has never done heavy work.
Wu Zhongpu walked to the gate of the mansion first, Jiang Dong followed behind, he raised his finger to Lu Yang, and said flatteringly: "Butler Wu, that is the kid who said he is the master's guest."
"Oh!" Wu Zhongpu obviously didn't expect that the person who wanted to see the master turned out to be a half-grown child. He had been a housekeeper for so many years, and he had never seen anyone before. He could tell at a glance that the child in front of him was not waiting. generation.Because from him, Wu Zhongpu could sense an aristocratic aura, which was by no means something ordinary people could keep healthy.
Wu Zhongpu couldn't guess the identity of the other party, and he didn't dare to be negligent. He strode up to Lu Yang and said, "Little brother, old slave Wu Zhongpu, which family's young master are you from?"
Lu Yang glanced around and saw that no one was paying attention here, so he lowered his voice and said, "Butler Wu, can you speak further?"
Wu Zhongpu was slightly taken aback, and became more curious about Lu Yang's identity. He took a few steps closer and said, "Young master, you can talk now!"
With a flick of his wrist, Lu Yang took out a white jade pendant from his sleeve, and shook it at Wu Zhongpu, "Do you know my identity now?" After saying that, he put away the jade pendant.
Wu Zhongpu is also a jade pendant, of course he can clearly see the handwriting on the jade pendant, there is not much expression on his face, but there is a huge wave in his heart.The word "Lu" was actually written on the jade pendant.You must know that Hechong County belongs to Tianyuan County, and all the small and medium families in the county are attached to a super-large family, and that family is the Lu family. Coincidentally, there is only one Lu family in Tianyuan County.
Wu Zhongpu would not suspect that the jade pendant was a fake. Although he had never touched the jade pendant belonging to a big family, he had seen countless pieces of this jade pendant, and he still had good eyesight.What's more, the jade pendant is made of high-quality suet jade, how can ordinary people own it?Even if he stole such a jade pendant, he wouldn't dare to come to a place like Duan's to make a mistake.
Because of this, Wu Zhongpu can be sure that even if the half-grown child in front of him is not from the Lu family, he is also closely related to the Lu family.People from such a big family, and with a status jade pendant, the head of the Duan family should be polite after seeing him, let alone the housekeeper of a small family.
Wu Zhongpu hurriedly bent down to salute, clasped his fists and said, "Master Lu, this way please, this way please..."
Lu Yang didn't talk nonsense, he strode towards the front of the mansion, and when he came to Jiang Dong's side, he glanced at him, but didn't say anything.
Wu Zhongpu has been observing Lu Yang's situation. After seeing this scene, he knew it well, and said coldly: "Jiang Dong, you offended Young Master Lu, and you still haven't apologized..."
Jiang Dong was very depressed, he had seen this kind of person a lot, he seemed to be a poor beggar, why did he suddenly become the young master, and he was also the young master of the Lu family?The Lu family, young master?Thinking of this, Jiang Dong's face became extremely ugly. He was so frightened that he quickly knelt down on the ground and begged for mercy: "Young Master Lu, I don't know your identity. Please don't take to heart what you offended just now."
Lu Yang really didn't dare to do anything to Jiang Dong. He is now joining the Duan family instead of representing the Lu family. What he did just now was just to use Wu Zhongpu's hand to let him out.Lu Yang waved his hands and laughed self-deprecatingly: "It's nothing, I'm dressed like this, it's no different from begging for food. If I were you, I would think so too." After speaking, he walked into the mansion.
These words sound nothing, but in the eyes of the big family members, they are simply insulting words.
Wu Zhongpu didn't want the Lu family to hate the Duan family because of these words, and said angrily: "Jiang Dong, you kid actually said that the people of the Lu family are beggars, I think you are impatient, pull me down Hit [-] big boards and wait for the decision." After speaking, he glared at Jiang Dong, and then followed Lu Yang.
Jiang Dong really wanted to cry, but if he had known that Lu Yang could take out the Lu family's jade pendant, he would not have dared to speak nonsense even if he had the courage to do so.
Another guard, seeing Jiang Dong being dragged into the backyard of the mansion, touched the cold sweat on his forehead and secretly called it a fluke.
The head of the Duan family, Duan Zhengyuan, is a baron after all, and the mansion is also not small, much worse than the Lu Mansion, but all the buildings that the mansion should have are fully built.Gardens, backyards, promenades, rockery, except for the back mountain that the duke should have, the rest of the buildings are all available.After passing through several long corridors, Lu Yang came to a main hall. Next to the main hall was a study room, which was where Duan Zhengyuan handled paperwork every day.
The study door was closed tightly, Wu Zhongpu signaled Lu Yang to wait outside the door, and then went to the door and knocked a few times.
After a while, an old man's voice came from the study, "Who is it?"
"Master, I'm a slave, and I have something important to report." Wu Zhongpu replied respectfully.
Footsteps sounded in the study, and then Duan Zhengyuan's voice came out, "Is there anything important, can't you come back after I deal with the foreign language documents? I want to see how important it is."
With a creak, the door of the study opened, and an old man appeared in Lu Yang's realization.
The old man looked more than 50 years old. Because of the good maintenance, there were not many wrinkles on his forehead, and he was much younger than poor people of this age.This person is Duan Zhengyuan, the head of the Duan family. He is wearing a silk jacket and a jade pendant made of sheep fat jade around his waist. The word "Duan" is engraved on the front of the jade pendant. No more than three pieces.
After Duan Zhengyuan saw Lu Yang, he frowned slightly. Obviously, he had never seen such a half-old child in his memory, so he asked politely, "Who are you?"
Lu Yang was baffled by the young man's question, and said in a daze, "Yes, yes! What's wrong?"
The boy suddenly laughed loudly, and laughed loudly: "I recognize you as a brother, you really look like me.
