Lin Wan looked at Xu Luwen's back, with a smile overflowing from the corner of her eyes, leaning against Lu Junzhao and laughing so hard that she couldn't stand upright.

"You said Master Xu is really good! Didn't he have a good way when he taught you? What a good way to write letters, watch operas and Chinese books, and give things away. Why did he become a shrinking turtle when he came here? gone?"

Lu Junzhao also had some smiles in his eyes, and asked Lin Wan, "Which families did you show him?"

"What else can there be? It's just the families in Weiyuan City." Lin Wan hurriedly supported Lu Junzhao's arm to straighten up, his eyes were full of water, and the corners of his eyes burst into tears.The corners of Lu Junzhao's mouth turned up, his expression relaxed unconsciously, he raised his hand, and brushed the corners of Lin Wan's eyes with his fingertips.Before Lin Wan recovered, she lowered her head and quickly pecked Lin Wan's eyes.

Lin Wan took a look at Lu Junzhao, approached Lu Junzhao and laughed in a low voice: "I don't think much of anything else, but I like Miss He Zhanpeng, who is He Zhanpeng's younger sister. She is also willing to think about it. The padded jacket here is also He Da The girl did it with her hands. Now it depends on how Master Xu behaves."

The corners of Lu Junzhao's brows twitched, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he laughed in a deep voice, hugged Lin Wan and hummed in a low voice.

Unlike Weiyuan City, which is bleak and deserted, Jin'an City still has some shadows of autumn at this moment. The inside and outside of the county is golden, and the cool wind blows up the leaves and swirls down to the ground.There are people coming and going on the street, and the business of hawkers hawking is one after another, and there is a hustle and bustle.

The Qin family's mansion on the corner of the street was especially lively. For Mr. Qin's birthday in October, several masters and young masters of the Qin family rushed back early, and the maids and women were running around in the courtyard.The servants greeted the master in the outer courtyard, greeted the master with a friendly smile and served tea and water.

The third master Qin Rufu was walking around the yard with a smile on his face. When he saw the fourth master Qin Rushan entered the yard, he turned his feet and greeted him with a shy belly and said with a smile: "This year, the fourth brother came back two days later than in previous years!"

Qin Rushan caught a glimpse of Qin Rufu smiling so much that he couldn't see his eyes, snorted through his nose, turned his head and told the servant to quickly unload the things in the carriage and send them to the main courtyard, then turned around unhurriedly , smiled at Qin Rufu whose face had already turned cold: "Third brother doesn't know. Weiyuan City entered winter early this year, and several shopkeepers rushed to hand in the account books, and they came back two days late. The ice was off and the carriage was moving slowly, so it was only delayed for a few days. The third brother has been in Liancheng all the time, so he is very close. There are few things to do, so I don’t think I would pay attention to them.”

The flesh on Qin Rufu's face trembled, his eyes squinted at the ermine jacket on Qin Rushan's body, he rubbed his stomach and laughed, then turned his head and glanced at the boys who were busy carrying things in front of the carriage, and leaned on Qin Rushan's shoulders. Rushan's shoulders sighed: "The fourth brother is better at living than me. He is also more capable than me. I am lazy and useless. I just hope that the old man can live a few more years."

Qin Rushan let out a half-smile, shook off Qin Rufu's hand, and led Mrs. Long Si to the inner courtyard in big strides.

Qin Rufu stood staring at Qin Rushan's back, unable to see the expression clearly on his face, snorted softly, and followed with strides.

A few people had just walked around the corridor and entered the hanging flower door, when a graceful figure walked towards them.A young woman with a delicate and charming face came.Qin Rushan's gaze faltered, and his steps slowed down.His eyes followed Qin Ruyun's delicate and tender cheeks all the way down, and stayed on that slender waist for a moment, with an obsessive smile in his eyes.

When Mrs. Long Si caught a glimpse of the greed in Qin Rushan's eyes, her heart suddenly froze. She looked at Qin Ruyun unconsciously with some hatred and jealousy, and her complexion was extremely unkind.Pulling the handkerchief with the palm of his hand, he kneaded it into a ball, then tore it apart vigorously, his fingers turned red from being strangled.

Sensing Qin Rushan's gaze, Qin Ruyun frowned unconsciously, felt uncomfortable for a while, but just lowered his eyes and lowered his head, calmly leaning behind Caiyue, avoiding Qin Rushan's gaze.

"Why is Ah Yun coming out?" Qin Rufu narrowed his eyes and laughed from behind, his eyes swept over the unrepentant greed in Qin Rushan's eyes, curled his lips secretly, and smiled at Qin Ruyun in a gentle voice, "The sky outside It’s cold, you’d better go back to the house and stay.” Then she scolded Caiyue with a stern face, “Why did you let the girl come out too?”

Caiyue saw that Qin Rufu's complexion was not good, and there was a bit of grievance on her face for a moment, she glanced at Qin Rufu with blissful eyes, lowered her head and admitted her mistake: "It's the servant girl's fault, please master punish me."

"It's none of Caiyue's business, it's because I want to come out for a walk." Qin Ruyun smiled, her voice was soft and delicate, this smile swayed slowly like the green willows by the lake in spring, until it reached people's hearts.

Qin Rushan's eyes darkened, and he glanced at Qin Rufu behind him, his expression was disdainful, but his tone was a bit sour: "When did the third brother bring such a little girl back? She looks good."

The smile on Qin Ruyun's face froze for a moment, he lowered his head to suppress the disgust and contempt in his eyes, chuckled with sourness and self-mockery, and knelt towards Qin Rushan. "Meet the fourth brother."

Qin Rushan was stunned for a moment, the expression on his face stiffened a bit, he stared at Qin Rufu who was smiling so obtrusively, and snorted coldly, then turned his gaze to Qin Ruyun. "Which family are you from?"

Seeing this, Qin Rufu squeezed over and coughed: "Ah Yun is from Bei'an City, he is from our generation. The old man told her to let her live here." Qin Rufu paused when he said this, thinking of the old man before He scolded himself head and face for not knowing the seniority and inferiority, and even the seniority could be messed up. The old man was so angry that he almost hit himself with a cane.

Only then did Qin Rushan close his eyes, and walked towards the main courtyard with a cold snort.

It turned out to be just a down-and-out relative!The hatred on Mrs. Long Si's face subsided, replaced by a contemptuous and disgusted expression, she let go of her palm, brought it to her mouth and gently blew on her red nails, sneered at Qin Ruyun, and followed Qin Rushan into the courtyard .

"There are many people today, and the courtyard is very noisy. Don't stand in the wind and blow it. Go back to the house to get warmer." Qin Rufu smiled at Qin Ruyun, and then told Caiyue, "Send the girl back. Yes Alright, you can bring the pot of red plums in the yard to the girl later."

Caiyue opened her mouth, and responded with a loud voice, Qin Ruyun quickly thanked her with a smile, stood in the distance and watched Qin Rufu enter the yard, and then turned back.

The little girl in the yard was receiving the charcoal, her face was smudged, seeing Qin Ruyun returning, her eyes lit up, she greeted her with a smile, she just stretched out her hand and then retracted it abruptly, smiling embarrassingly Laughing, talking to Qin Ruyun in a crisp voice: "Miss is back? You go to the house to warm up, the servant has just gone to get the charcoal and came back—Sister Caiyue is here too?"

The smile on Qin Ruyun's face became a little warmer, he nodded at the little girl, and said with a soft smile: "I know, it's hard work for you, go and wash your face." Then he turned his head and smiled apologetically at Caiyue , "It's my fault today, but Miss Caiyue has been wronged."

"What did the girl say? You are the master, and I am a slave, how can a master implicate a slave by saying this? The girl said that the slaves can't afford to be worthy. When the masters hear it, they should blame the slaves again." Caiyue There was a smile on his face, but his tone was a little angry. After finishing speaking, he bent his knees with Qin Ruyun, "Young lady, go back now, this servant is going to carry the flowerpot with you."

The smile on Qin Ruyun's face remained undiminished, and he quickly stretched out his hand to pull Caiyue, and said with a smile: "Miss Caiyue, didn't she annoy me? This time it's my fault. I'll blame you. You are the third brother The big girl next to me, how can I let someone do this, let Douer do it, this girl is very strong." As he spoke, he raised his voice and called the previous little girl to order, "Follow Miss Caiyue to move the pot of plum blossoms. .”

Caiyue snorted softly, shook off Qin Ruyun's hand, twisted her waist and walked out of the yard, the little girl Douzi hurriedly put down the water basin and followed her after her.

Qin Ruyun stood at the gate of the yard, the cold wind blew like a blade, his face hurt, the smile in his eyes faded, replaced by self-mockery and sarcasm.

In the main courtyard, the four lords of the Qin family sat at a table with the old man in charge. The old man Qin swept around the people at the table, pointed at Qin Rushan and frowned and said, "There is a lot of noise about the construction of the Weiyuan City Academy, what are you doing?" gone?"

Old Master Qin's voice was not loud, and his face was not too harsh, but the dissatisfaction in his tone was obvious. Qin Rushan moved his feet slightly, his face froze, and he argued a little dissatisfied: "Father said that What are you talking about? Weiyuan City belongs to the Lu family, and the academy was also built by Lu Errang, so even if I want to intervene, I can't get in. Besides, even if I intervene, it won't be of much benefit to my Qin family..."

"Idiot!" Old Master Qin stomped his feet with a bang, his expression turned cold, and his gaze shot at Qin Rushan like a sharp sword, "No good? No good, can that kid from the Han family come forward?"

Qin Rushan stretched his neck and wanted to defend himself, but Qin Rushou held his leg on the side. Qin Rushou pursed his lips, shook his head with concern, opened his mouth, and silently advised Qin Rushan to stay calm.

"Yong'an City has also built an academy, and the aristocratic families in Pingliang Mansion have all contributed money. If the boss's news did not come quickly, I am afraid that my Qin family will be the only one left behind!" Old Qin's complexion was livid, his beard trembling, and he was furious. He slapped it on the table, pointed at his sons and reprimanded him, "He, Han Si, a young man, is not so big as a young man to make his own claims! This is the second master's dissatisfaction with the Qin family!"

"Father calm down," Qin Rufu looked at the expression on Old Master Qin's face, quickly poured a cup of tea and touched it, and persuaded cautiously, "The Qin family also suffered from the misfortune of the pond fish before, and He Zhongshan said that the Han family had a commotion. That kid from the Han family is fine, but our family Erlang has committed the crime. Hey, but the second master will not turn against the Qin family because of this little thing. "

As soon as Qin Rufu finished speaking, Qin Rushan's expression changed, and he stared at Qin Rufu coldly.what does he mean?Erlang is his legitimate son, does he mean that their fourth wife is holding back the Qin family?

Seeing the veins popping out on Qin Ruhai's forehead, Qin Ruhai frowned slightly, kicked Qin Rushan, Qin Rushan snorted, saw the dissatisfaction in Qin Ruhai's eyes, swallowed, and suppressed the anger in his chest , turned away coldly.

But Qin Rufu continued to laugh and said: "I think it was because the second master came to the Pingliang mansion earlier, and our Qin family didn't say much, so we fell behind. Father, think about it, almost all the aristocratic families in the Pingliang mansion sent people to the Xu family for the second master Gift giving, our family didn’t catch up at that time...Hey, let me tell you, why don’t we make up a big gift?” (To be continued.
