Changshou took the box with a smile, and while bending down, he promised: "Don't worry, mother, I will send the things out right now. Mrs. Xinyi, who is in charge of Lu Cheng'an and Mr. Lu, took it, but Mrs. is inconvenient and it is not suitable to see people. "

Granny Cao nodded with a smile, signaling Qiu Zi to send Changshou out.

"The madam and the master don't know when to come. The madam doesn't even have a servant. It's a good thing that the grandpa has to take the madam with her! This trip, I don't know if the madam will be able to bear it. " Qiu Zi looked at Changshou's back, with a sad look on his face, turned his head and sighed bitterly with Cao Mama. "The north is no better than the south, and people are not familiar with the place. Besides, there are a group of big men following, and the wife is not cheap even if she drinks saliva."

"It's okay, madam knows well, and I know how to cherish madam. There are shopkeepers Mi and Li in Pingliang's mansion." Mammy Cao patted Qiuzi's hand. Although she was trying to persuade Qiuzi, her tone was somewhat Sharing worry and helplessness, it is better to say that you are persuading yourself. "Last night, Changshou came over to say that this is my grandfather's yard, and I'm afraid there will be more time to live in it in the future. Let people tidy up quickly, and when my wife and master come back, I can live more comfortably."

Qiu Zi nodded with a busy smile, and then asked suspiciously: "Didn't you say that there is a palace in Hengcheng? Where does Madam and Lord live?"

Just as Mammy Cao pursed her lips and smiled to speak, Mammy Xing walked into the Chuihua Gate outside with a smile and said to Qiuzi: "There are few people in the palace."

"Mommy is back, let's go into the house and have a rest." Qiu Zi nodded, with a gentle smile on her face, and while supporting Nanny Xing, she told Lianqiao to go quickly to see if the sour plum soup in the kitchen was ready.

"My wife is alone, and she has been to the north before. It's early in the morning again, so it's okay to take a trip like this!" Mammy Xing's face was wrinkled with a smile, obviously in a good mood, and she nodded with Mammy Cao, While walking in, he patted Qiu Zi's hand and smiled. "The prince's residence in Hengcheng has not been inhabited for many years, and the second master lived in the north once a year and a half. On the contrary, the courtyard in Weiyuan City is often lived in. I have been here before. This courtyard was originally the old prince's residence. The one that was put down was also named Beirongyuan."

"Don't think the front yard is not big, but the back yard is spacious. I didn't have time to take you there yesterday. I'll take Madam Cao to have a look when it's free today. There's mountain spring water in the back of the yard. There is a lake around there. Last night, I seem to have heard from Nanny Cai, who is in charge of the yard, that my father sent a letter to plant a lot of lotus in that lake, and I don’t know how they are blooming..."

Mammy Cao smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.With Nanny Xing around, although she has to act more cautiously.But she is an old man in the palace, and she is a wide-hearted person with great eyesight. She is familiar with this courtyard and the palace in the north, and she is also sincere to the wife and the master, which is only good for the wife.

Changshou took the lacquered wooden box and a few purses out of the main courtyard and walked around the corridor.Before going out of the Hanging Flower Gate, he smiled at Lu Chengan who was standing straight at the door: "You are lucky today!" As he spoke, he freed up one hand to pick up the purse on the box and threw it towards the boys. "Madam has a good temper, and I still think about your hard work carrying the box. This is Madam's reward for you."

The young servants were overjoyed to pick it up, bowed down and kowtowed to express their thanks, holding the heavy purse with joy on their faces, put the purse into their arms, and cupped their hands several times and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Second Young Master." ".

With a smile on his face, Changshou stretched out his foot and lightly kicked the shoulder of a boy in front of him, and laughed and scolded the boys to go out by themselves.A few servants listened.Hehe smiled and backed out.

"No, this is specially given to you by Madam. Madam said so. Madam Xinyi took it." Taking two steps forward, Changshou looked at Lu Chengan with a half-smile, and passed the box in his hand, with a sour tone. He hummed, "You kid really got a big deal."

A trace of doubt flashed in Lu Chengan's eyes, with a slight smile on his face, he hurriedly shook his head and bowed to Changshou, reached out to take the box, and said with a smile: "You have been with me all year round, do you have anything? You are so hot-eyed... "

When Lu Chengan said this, his voice stopped abruptly, and the astonishment in his eyes was fleeting. He raised his heart, looked at the crystal clear and colorful coral carving red lotus in the box, and then looked up at Changshou, with a smile on his face. Terrified and puzzled, he hesitated and asked: "Ma'am, is this... really for me?"

Lu Chengan looked at Changshou with steady eyes, his heart fluttered and he lost his mind for a while.He followed his father and managed a few shops, so he still had some good eyesight.In the box of items I picked for my wife, there are not many items that can match the appearance of this coral red lotus. What's more, the carving is very detailed.This thing was shipped by sea, and the price is not cheap!His son who is in charge, received such a big gift before meeting him to pay his respects.Moreover, when the box of jade and jade objects was brought in, the madam changed hands and sent out a rare coral red lotus. The lotus flower is of noble character and has many meanings... Is this madam satisfied or dissatisfied?

"If I don't give it to you, could it be that I gave it to me?" Changshou patted Lu Chengan's shoulder amusedly, but snorted coldly with his mouth curled up in his heart.The master said, the lady is the master.Master to wife, that is to hold it in the hand for fear of falling and hold it in the mouth for fear of melting.He could see clearly from the moment his wife didn't enter the door, the master was so heart-to-heart to his wife!Besides, although Madam protects her shortcomings, she can't tolerate taboos.But he is also true and kind to these little servants.His old man, Lu An, had already told him millions of times, to serve his master and his wife well, and not rely on the master's arrogance.snort!He's sober!

The master explained that his wife would be in charge of the business in the north in the future, and that he should keep a close eye on the manager from outside in the future.

Lu An is in charge, and when his wife and master came, they sent Lu Chengan, his son, to give gifts?He bah!Or that girl Lianqiao was right, those jades and emeralds, Madam can have as much as she wants!Is it his turn to deliver?He gave the master's things to the master?shameless!Fortunately, Lu Ping and his son claim to be scholars!

Changshou hummed and spat in his heart with contempt.If the master is in this yard, Lu Cheng'an will not even be able to enter the door... Not necessarily, madam, ahem, my mind is spinning fast, unlike the master...

"I heard from the nanny who served by Madam's side that it was sent by the shopkeeper from the south to honor Madam. Madam was taken away. Isn't it cheap for you today?"

"I'm a bit soft when I hold this thing." Lu Chengan smiled awkwardly and embarrassedly, "Madam rewards me so much, I really can't afford it."

"Forget it!" Changshou frowned, half-jokingly reaching out to snatch the red lotus from Lu Chengan's hand. "There is no reason to take back what Madam took out. If you don't want it, give it to me!"

"Brother Changshou was joking." Lu Chengan smiled and closed the lid, holding the box in both hands and hiding aside. "Madam's generous reward, this is my blessing, brother Changshou please thank Madam for me."

"I know, I know. What's wrong with you? You guys are the only ones talking around! Let's go, let's go, I'm busy here today, so I won't say hello to you, just thank you for passing it on for you. "Changshou interrupted Lu Chengan impatiently, and nodded in agreement while waving his hand to chase Lu Chengan away.

Lu Chengan was not annoyed, and thanked Changshou in a good-tempered manner.Then he stepped back quickly.

When Lu Chengan's back turned around the wall and disappeared, the expression on Changshou's face suddenly changed, and then he raised his eyebrows and curled his lips, snorted, and turned his head into the main courtyard.

Lu Chengan went to the shop to find Lu Ping with a heavy heart, dismissed everyone, and handed the box in his hand to Lu Ping.In the last moment, he took a deep breath.He said solemnly: "Today, my son picked up a box of jade, jadeite and colored glass objects to send to the second young lady. Changshou, a confidant next to the second master, personally passed on the words. Changshou said that the second young lady has been exposed to heat for the past two days. It's not suitable to see people, this coral lotus was given to me by the second young lady. My son is dull and can't figure out the attitude of this lady."

"It's okay, the second master and the second young lady have just arrived in the north, and the wife is a woman. She is also a noble girl who was spoiled and raised in the capital. She has been driving for a few days on a hot day. It is common sense to suffer from the heat."

Lupine glanced at the colorful red lotus in the box, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he analyzed in an extremely calm voice. "Since the madam is in charge of the business in the north, it's not surprising that she will win over the shopkeepers below. After all, she has just entered the Lu family and her foundation is still shallow. Just keep it."

Lu Chengan nodded, thought for a while, his face was more dignified and pensive, looked at Lu Ping and frowned and said: "Changshou said a word today, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional... the coral carving It was sent by the shopkeeper from the south to honor Madam. If you can send such a thing, Madam Er Young Madam’s business in the south is probably not small. Doesn’t it mean that the Marquis of Chong’an has been in decline for more than ten years?”

Lupine's eyes suddenly flashed sharply. "Did you hear me clearly?"

Then he closed his eyes again, tapped his fingers on the table, and fell silent with a solemn expression. After a long while, he said in a deep voice: "We haven't figured out the temperament of this second young lady, so don't worry, she always wants to see people." .You carefully restrain the shopkeepers below, and you have carefully checked the account books in all the shops. Don’t worry about the mine and the horse farm.”

In Jin'an City, Pingliang Prefecture, the sun had been scorching hot for several days, until it was almost mid-June, and finally it rained, and the weather became cooler.The scorching sun seemed to be tired at last, restrained its power, and hid in the clouds.

The air is humid, filled with the fragrance of earth and grass, and the birds in the woods are shouting cheerfully-making the mood of passers-by soar.

Lin Wan opened the curtain and half-hung the curtain, and the cool wind from outside blew in. Lin Wan squinted her eyes and took a deep breath, smiling at Lu Junzhao, "Finally we're in Jin'an City."

Although it is outside the city, the rural fields are also very lively. A few or two children play around the grass covered with wild flowers. Occasionally, a peasant woman with her sleeves rolled up and a bamboo basket on her back passes by, and occasionally a farmer or two comes over with a simple and honest face. Smiling, he took the things from the peasant woman's body, and the husband and wife talked intimately, with warm and peaceful smiles on their faces.

The smile on Lin Wan's face gradually spread, leaning on Lu Junzhao's body, pinching Lu Junzhao's fingers lightly, staring at the farmers passing by not far away, and whispering softly: "That's great."
