Chapter 81
Hulu shook his head, "Of course it is impossible to kill him, just let him lie on the bed for a year or so."

Hulu found out that the child was not Xiaodonggua, and guessed that if Xiaodonggua was really in Shang Qihao's hands, then Shang Qihao would definitely hug him out and threaten him instead of making a fake to fool him.

He pressed Shang Qihao to ask about the whereabouts of the little wax gourd, but Shang Qihao refused to tell, so he severely injured Shang Qihao. Although there were many masters in the second prince's residence, they lost to the shadow guards he brought.

"I was afraid that if I couldn't find the little winter melon, you would blame me. Fortunately, the little winter melon is fine." Hulu said happily.

"You hurt Shang Qihao, he will definitely take revenge on you." Meng Fuling worried.

"I sealed his sleeping point with internal force, and he won't wake up in a short time." What the gourd didn't say was to seal the sleeping point with internal force. If one is not good, it is easy to fall asleep for a long time.

Meng Fuling didn't believe that the emperor would remain indifferent when the prince was seriously injured and unconscious, "The emperor will definitely investigate—"

"I'm so easy, you can't find me." Calabash affirmed.

Meng Fuling thought for a while, this time Shang Qihao acted in private, so he, including the people around him, would definitely not leak the traces of the gourd, and if he wanted revenge, he would only do it secretly.

Shang Qihao couldn't get help from Hulu, but was injured instead. He definitely didn't want Hulu to show up in public and hold important power again.

"I'll take the little wax gourd back to Qishan County tomorrow." Meng Fuling didn't want to stay in the capital city any longer.

"Why did you take the little winter melon back? What about me? You want to leave me behind?" Hulu snatched the little winter melon from her arms and stared at her dissatisfied.

"You already know your identity, do you still want to go back with me and become a villager?" Meng Fuling said in disbelief.

"Yes! I just like being a farmer in the mountains, and I want you to cook for me every day." Hulu said confidently, scolding Meng Fuling for being heartless, and actually wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of him.

"You're not a great general anymore? Are you willing to leave everything behind? You don't think so now, if one day you recover your memory, you might blame me."

"You're too wordy!" Calabash didn't bother to talk to Meng Fuling, and just hugged the little wax gourd and didn't let go, with the look of 'I just won't leave, what can you do to me'.

"Forget it, forget it, I don't care about you! Just don't blame me when the time comes." Meng Fuling was very helpless.

******
The next morning, Meng Fuling woke up the gourd, took the little winter melon and prepared to go downstairs to have breakfast. Last night, the guard brought Steward Lu to find him.

Steward Lu wore the veiled hat used by women to cover his face, which looked ridiculous. He pointed at Meng Fuling and said angrily, "Mrs. Meng, did you leave me on purpose last night?"

"Steward Lu, what do you mean by that? How could I leave you on purpose? The situation was urgent last night, and I thought you should leave on your own." Meng Fuling noticed that Steward Lu's feet were trembling when he spoke, and he had to rely on the guards He could only stand firm with the support of his father. He guessed that he should 'lose his dignity', or even be 'squeezed'.

Steward Lu was furious at Meng Fuling's words, but Gourd came to make up for it again: "You have feet, so you can't walk by yourself?"

"General, general, what are you doing?" Steward Lu seemed to hear his heartbreaking voice, and his heart ached.

Hulu frowned and corrected: "Call me Mr. Hulu, or Hulu."

Steward Lu sighed again and again, the general's name is so nice, why do he like this earthy and vulgar name, it must have been chosen by Meng Fuling, and he also poured the general with ecstasy soup.

"General, Mr. Hu, when I first came here, I heard that the emperor ordered to search the city to capture the assassin who assassinated the second prince." No matter how thick-skinned Steward Lu was, he was too embarrassed to bring up the 'humiliation' of last night.

Meng Fuling asked: "Then there is no way for us to leave?"

When Steward Lu heard this, he became anxious again, "Mrs. Meng, what are you guys doing? Is Mr. Hu wanting to go with you?"

"That's right, he wants to go back with me to farm the land and help me take care of the children." Meng Fuling said badly.

She knew that Butler Lu was loyal to the Lord, but she just didn't like his attitude towards her, as if she was sticking to the gourd and burdening the gourd.

"What? You can't, you are a great general, from our Great Chu Kingdom—" Steward Lu was so shocked that he didn't care about the rules.

"Shut up!" Calabash interrupted Steward Lu impatiently. He didn't like Steward Lu's attitude towards Meng Fuling.

Steward Lu's old face under the veil darkened, and he bowed his head in silence. Although he knew that Hulu had lost his memory and treated him like this, he was still very sad.

Seeing this, Meng Fuling secretly tugged on the sleeve of the gourd, and the gourd said reluctantly: "You said, the situation in Beijing is not stable now, and I haven't recovered my memory. What's the benefit?"

Steward Lu was taken aback, and felt that Hulu's words made sense, "It's because the old slave didn't think carefully."

After a pause, he asked again: "Can you take this old slave with you?"

Calabash asked, "If you go with us, who will come to the general's mansion?"

"Lu Zhao is already able to take care of himself, and if I leave it to him, I'm sure he can take good care of the house," said Steward Lu.

Lu Zhao is the son of Steward Lu. Just in case, he taught Lu Zhao how to be a housekeeper very early on, and gradually let go of him in the past two years.

After hearing Gong Lie talk about the family affairs, Hulu naturally knew that Lu Zhao was a loyal and reliable person, but he really didn't want to bring Steward Lu with him. Thinking of this, he looked at Meng Fuling again.

Meng Fuling thought in her heart that she could take care of the huge General's Mansion, and that Steward Lu was definitely not someone to be idle in. If she brought him back, he might be able to help her, so she said, "My family is not as good as the General's Mansion, but also helps with farm work. "

"Can you do farm work?" Calabash glanced at Butler Lu's trembling feet, obviously showing contempt.

Steward Lu had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "As long as I can serve you, I can do whatever I want this old servant to do."

"Okay, I'll let you follow! But I've said my ugly words first. When you arrive at my house, you can't put on airs of a housekeeper. You have to listen to me in everything."

"Why did you listen to it? Not the young master?" Could it be that this woman is the head of the family, and his general has no status at all?

Meng Fuling didn't mind explaining to him, "Because I'm the head of the family, Hulu is just a visiting son-in-law!"

"Come on, son-in-law?" Steward Lu's eyes widened, hoping that he had heard it wrong.

However, Meng Fuling still felt that the blow he had suffered was not severe enough, and said, "If you don't believe me, you can ask him."

Steward Lu looked at Hulu, and before he could speak, Hulu nodded, "Yes!"

Now, Steward Lu finally couldn't bear it and fell to the ground, "How can, how can..."

At this time, Luo Yunhao ran in with a small bottle, "Miss Meng, you have to add some of this before feeding your baby."

"What is this?" Meng Fuling took the small bottle and asked in confusion.

After she uncorked the bottle and sniffed it, her complexion turned bad in an instant, "You give this to the little wax gourd?"

"Yeah, this is very fragrant, otherwise, how can there be any taste if you just drink milk?" Luo Yunhao nodded.

Meng Fuling suppressed her anger and raised the bottle in front of Luo Yunhao, "Have you eaten it yourself?"

Luo Yunhao really didn't understand why Meng Fuling was so angry, so he shook his head honestly, "No!"

"No, you dare to give cumin powder to my son? If something goes wrong, can you afford it?"

Meng Fuling didn't dare to take anything related to the little winter melon lightly, but Luo Yunhao actually gave the little winter melon cumin powder.

"So it's called cumin powder? How do you know?" Luo Yunhao asked in surprise, as if he couldn't see that Meng Fuling was angry.

Meng Fuling was so angry that her brain ached, "Are you aware of what you did wrong?"

Luo Yunhao shook his head stupidly, he didn't think he had done anything wrong, "A friend of mine brought it back from a foreign country, and it is said that it is a good thing. I just want my child to eat better, and I specially spend money to treat it." The woman milked the milk, and put it in the milk on purpose, and spent all the money I had on me."

The more Meng Fuling heard it, the darker her face became. She didn't care how hard he worked to make the milk. Thinking that the milk must have a strange taste after adding cumin powder, she just kept getting angry.

Gourd was also angry, he snatched the bottle from her hand, approached Luo Yunhao, and wanted to feed Luo Yunhao the whole bottle of cumin powder.

"Don't be like this, this thing is very expensive, even if you have silver, it's hard to buy it, haven't you seen that the child is getting fat?" Luo Yunhao hurriedly avoided, his lightness kung fu is very good, but the gourd is now Slightly weaker, so that he could not catch up with him.

When Meng Fuling heard the sentence that money is hard to buy, she seemed to think of something, hurriedly stopped them, and confiscated the cumin powder, "Forget it! I've eaten it all, and I'll take the little wax gourd to see the doctor first."

Unexpectedly, Luo Yunhao said something that made people vomit blood even more, "I know a little about medicine, and the child has no problems at all."

"You know medical skills, and you just give the little winter melon something to eat?" Meng Fuling couldn't help raising her voice.

Luo Yunhao didn't dare to speak immediately, but housekeeper Lu took the initiative to ask the guards to invite the doctor.

After the doctor came, he examined the little wax gourd and told him that there was no abnormality, so Meng Fuling put Xin'an back in his stomach.

******
The emperor ordered a search for the assassins, and even those entering and leaving the city must be strictly investigated, so it is inevitable that Hulu and others will leave the city.

As the butler of the General's Mansion, it is much easier for Steward Lu to leave the city, but if he leaves the city suddenly, it will also arouse suspicion.

Therefore, Meng Fuling asked Steward Lu to pretend to be sick, and asked Gong Lie to help him paint red dots all over his face, including his body, pretending to have a strange contagious disease, so he had to leave Beijing for treatment.

While Meng Fuling hid in the big wooden box with the little wax gourd in her arms, Hulu and Luo Yunhao pretended to be accompanying servants.

The city guard was afraid of being infected, but also because of General Qi's face, he didn't make any trouble and let him go easily.

After leaving the city gate, Hulu immediately opened the wooden box to release Meng Fuling, and hugged the little wax gourd distressedly.

"Tsk tsk! I said why did you assassinate the second prince? Why do the housekeepers of General Qi's mansion call themselves old slaves in front of you? You must be General Qi, right?" Luo Yunhao held back for a long time, and finally couldn't help it. asked.

Hulu stared at him coldly, "What's none of your business? If you talk too much, you won't be allowed to follow us."

Luo Yunhao stretched out his fingers to tease the little wax gourd, and said: "If you don't ask, don't ask. I, Luo Yunhao, like to travel all over the world, no matter where I go, I haven't been to Qishan County yet, so I have to take this opportunity to have fun." .”

Meng Fuling and Hulu had already asked Gong Lie, and they knew that Luo Yunhao was the younger brother of the current prime minister. He was a rare chivalrous person who wandered around the world because he didn't like power.

From Meng Fuling's point of view, Luo Yunhao was a fool and a little blunt. A person like him would be killed every minute if he got power.

When I entered Beijing, I was in a hurry, and when I left Beijing, I felt relaxed and relaxed, so I walked slowly. Even though the journey was smooth, it took me more than ten days to rush back to Qishan County.

They went directly back to the village. As soon as they entered the village, Housekeeper Lu, who was covered in red spots all over his body, had never relaxed his old face.

Especially as soon as the curtain was lifted, the villagers stared at the carriage with envy or jealousy on their faces, which made Steward Lu extremely annoyed.

"You live here?" Steward Lu has been struggling with the name of the gourd, and he finds it strange to be called Mr. Hulu, and he can't call the soil of the gourd the exit, but he can only call it 'you' directly.

"It's good here!" Hulu added in his heart because of Meng Fuling's presence.

However, before reaching the house, Li Shanhu hurriedly came up with chicken wings, "Fu Ling! Is Fu Ling back?"

Meng Fuling's heart tightened when she heard Li Shanhu's anxious voice, knowing that something must have happened during her absence.

She and Hulu got out of the car in a hurry, and as soon as Little Chicken Wing saw them, he immediately rushed over and hugged her leg, "Sister, the bad guys come to our house and refuse to leave."

"What kind of villain?" Meng Fuling asked, who is the best way to pick things up?

Li Shanhu also ran in front of her, "Little Chicken Wing and I guard the door every day, and we finally hoped for you to come back."

"Huanhu, tell me what happened soon." Meng Fuling asked urgently.

"A few days ago, my aunt was not feeling well. I accompanied her to the city to see a doctor. Who knew that when I came back, the carriage hit someone, and it was your grandma..." Li Shanshan clattered the ins and outs of the matter like beans. Tell Meng Fuling.

It turned out that Xue's family found out that Xue's family had entered the city, so they guarded at the entrance of the village.

When the carriage entered the village, he pushed Xue's mother, Jin, out. Xue bumped into his mother, and was shocked and overwhelmed, eager to send Jin to the hospital.

Unexpectedly, those black-hearted people in the Xue family not only refused, but a large group of people insisted on living in Meng Fuling's house, saying that they would only live in the family until the Jin family recovered.

They couldn't be driven away, but no one in the village witnessed this incident except Li Shanhu and the coachman who were with Xue. It is a fact that Jin was injured.

"Where's Hualin?" Meng Fuling asked angrily. Logically speaking, with Han Hualin taking care of her, these top performers should not dare to be so arrogant.

"Boss Han left Qishan County the day before Xue's family came, saying that his mother had passed away." Li Shanhu said.

Han Hualin's mother passed away?Then he should go back, Meng Fuling can understand very well.

"Looking for death!" Calabash flew into a rage and rushed home.

Seeing this, Luo Yunhao chased after him, "Wait for me! I'm going to join in the fun too."

"Mrs. Meng, this kind of thing often happens in your house?" Steward Lu's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

"Yeah, I'll have to trouble you to deal with it in the future." Meng Fuling replied coolly, and walked quickly to the door.

"Miss, you are back!" The concierge was also very happy to see Meng Fuling, and he was obviously relieved.

Meng Fuling responded lightly, and as soon as she stepped through the door, she heard a burst of howling.

The members of the Xue family were thrown out of the house one by one by Hulu and Luo Yunhao, and the house was in a mess, and some of the women were wearing Xue's and Meng Fu's clothes and their jewelry.

The clothes on the man's body were not bad, needless to say, he must have raided the house for valuables and sold them, and bought them with the money he got.

Meng Fuling was furious, "Who allowed you to come in and touch my things?"

When the Xue family saw Meng Fuling's return, they all seemed very guilty. The Xue family cried and greeted her, "Fuling, you're finally back! How's the little wax gourd?"

Meng Fuling was a little angry at Mrs. Xue, she couldn't stop these top-quality products from living in, but how could they let them touch their things.

But seeing Xue's face covered with tears and red and swollen eyes, he was obviously shocked and worried. Now when he saw her, the first sentence he said was concerned about Xiaodonggua.

In this way, Meng Fuling couldn't harden her heart against Mrs. Xue, so she could only comfort her: "Little wax gourd is fine, don't worry, everything is up to me."

Xue choked up and nodded. She had been worrying and fearing for the past few days, but now it all turned into big drops of tears rolling down.

Seeing that Mrs. Xue is so useless, Steward Lu couldn't help saying: "It's just a bunch of rascals in the mountains, what's there to be afraid of?"

It was only then that Xue discovered the existence of Steward Lu, "Fu Ling, who is he?"

"He's a lonely old man I rescued on the road." Meng Fuling glared at Steward Lu and said sarcastically.

"Mrs. Meng, you—" Steward Lu didn't know why he had become the lonely old man Meng Fuling said, and was a little annoyed.

Meng Fuling didn't give him a chance to refute, "You are capable, but you helped me solve this group of rascals in the mountains!"

Just to test Steward Lu's handling ability, Meng Fuling came up with this idea.

Steward Lu didn't know Meng Fuling's real thoughts, thinking that she was dissatisfied with what he said just now, and deliberately made things difficult for him, so naturally he didn't want her to look down upon him, "What's so difficult about this!"

After all, Steward Lu stepped forward, "What's going on, please tell me the truth!"

Steward Lu has been a housekeeper in the General's Mansion for many years. He is well dressed and has a majestic aura on his body. Once he is released, he will immediately frighten everyone in the Xue family.

Xue Qingsong was the first to say tremblingly: "My third sister bumped into our mother..."

As soon as he explained the matter, he turned black and white, and it became that Mrs. Xue bumped into Mrs. Jin, but he refused to send Mrs. Jin to the hospital for treatment. As a last resort, they had no choice but to stay here.

"Brother, you are talking nonsense, nonsense! It's not like this!" Shi Xue trembled with anger when she heard Xue Qingsong slander her so much.

"Third sister, how can I be talking nonsense? You hit our mother and didn't say it, and you didn't let her go to the doctor. It's really unfilial! We are not as unfilial as you, but we don't have any money. Otherwise, you can take out 500 taels. This matter will be over, and we will take mother home to recuperate."

Meng Fuling and the others came back, and Xue Qingsong knew that he couldn't rely on this place anymore, so he might as well steal some money.

Four 500 taels?Really dared to open his mouth like a lion, Meng Fuling immediately laughed angrily.

"I didn't hit you! Are you sorry for saying this? It's obvious that you pushed mother into the carriage." Xue was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes.

"You said that she hit someone and refused to send her to the hospital for treatment. Do you have any evidence?" Steward Lu interrupted the conversation of the two and asked Xue Qingsong and the others.

After hearing this, the Xue family said in unison: "There is evidence, we have all seen it, and we can all testify."

"You are in the same group, how can you testify? According to me! This matter has to be reported to the authorities." Luo Yunhao interjected a little excitedly when encountering such entanglements for the first time.

When Xue Qingsong heard the reporter, he quickly waved his hands and said: "We also thought about reporting to the officer, but it was my third sister who bumped into someone. I have to think about brotherhood, don't I?"

"It's the brotherhood that makes the matter clear. No one can be wronged." Lu Guanjia said.

Meng Fuling guessed that Steward Lu must have an idea, so she asked, "Then what's your opinion?"

Steward Lu showed some color on his face, looked at Meng Fuling and said, "Report to the official!"

Meng Fuling was a little disappointed with Steward Lu when she heard the word "report to the official". She thought he had some brilliant idea.

Steward Lu saw what Meng Fuling was thinking, and said unhurriedly: "Both parties have no evidence to prove the incident of bumping into people, but if these people force them to stay, they can be sued for occupying the house."

"Then let's see who is guilty and needs to be punished." Meng Fuling smiled and understood Steward Lu's intentions.

It turned out that Steward Lu wanted to turn against Xue's family and treat him in his own way.Think about it too, this is how you should deal with such a shameless rascal.

"I, we are not afraid of meeting the officials. Anyway, she hit our mother, so she should pay compensation." Xue Qingsong pretended to be calm.

"Why are you talking so much nonsense with them? Just send them to the Yamen." Hulu was really impatient, and immediately picked up the collars of the two men and threw them out of the door.

Luo Yunhao found it interesting, and helped to throw people, "I'm good at throwing people."

In the end, there was only one old man left, and he shrank by the door in fear, not daring to move, looking at Hulu and Luo Yunhao pitifully.

Meng Fuling has some impressions of this old man, he is Xue's father and her grandfather, and he is not a good guy.He has a bad temper, patriarchal, and often beats Jin. When Xue was not married, he was beaten and scolded less often.

Seeing old man Xue like this, she knew that he had another bad idea, "Hulu, throw him out too!"

Just as Hulu was about to step forward, Mrs. Xue would intercede for old man Xue, "Fu Ling, can you stop chasing your grandfather?"

"You mean you want him to stay?" Meng Fuling looked at Xue Shi with a half-smile.

"Your grandpa and grandma have endured hardships in their life, and they have never lived in such a nice house—" After all, it is their own father, Xue Shi couldn't bear to see him in such a pitiful state at this time.

Meng Fuling felt that she was really defeated by the Xue family. She knew that the old man Xue was not a good guy, but she still wanted to keep him. Does she still want to live?

If old man Xue is really left behind, it is tantamount to leaving an internal response to the Xue family. It is normal for the autumn wind to blow every two days, and maybe they will do more excessive things.

"Okay! Mother wants to keep him, yes!" Meng Fuling sneered.

"Fuling, are you really willing?" Mrs. Xue couldn't believe that Meng Fuling would agree so easily?
"That's right! But I will build another house for you to live with him and grandma." Meng Fuling nodded.

"Fuling, you want your mother to move out, don't you want her?" Xue Shi was startled by Meng Fuling's words, holding her hand nervously, tears streaming down her face.

"Fuling, you must have misunderstood Auntie—" Li Shanhuan thought that Meng Fuling was angry at the Xue family for keeping the old man Xue, so she said this, and hurriedly explained.

Meng Fuling interrupted her, and cast a cold glance at old man Xue, "Shu Shan, stop talking, I know it well."
