Lord Quan teases Houmen's poisonous wife

Chapter 309 Extra Episode 001 [-] First Encounter in the South of the Yangtze River
The spring water is clear in the sky, and the painting boat listens to the rain and sleeps, which is the most beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River.

The two brothers Lu Xiuyuan and Yi Bai traveled all the way, and they had already visited most of the beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River. Lu Xiuyuan's trip was originally for business, but on the way, he saw that Yi Bai seemed to be very interested in the Jiangnan where the apricot blossoms and spring rain were, so he pushed back the business. Push, first take him around to enjoy, the two brothers are on the painting boat right now, it is raining lightly outside, the soft rain reveals a little coldness.

Lu Xiuyuan came back from the deck, put away his umbrella and entered the door, and said to Yi Bai, "It seems that the rain won't stop for a while, let's go to the shore, find a teahouse and have a cup of tea to warm up before going back to the inn."

Yi Bai looked away from the rippling lake outside, nodded, "Okay."

The painting boat docked, and the two each held an umbrella and walked up the bluestone steps.

This is a small town, the buildings are mainly in gray and white tones, with the front street and the back river, and the house layout is all four waters.

The two walked while looking for the teahouse.

"My lord, would you like to buy this jade pendant from me?" A voice suddenly came from the side.

Lu Xiuyuan stopped and turned his head to look.

She was a typical Jiangnan woman, quiet and serene, with fair complexion, exquisite figure, and a very gentle tone when she spoke. However, she was dressed very thinly and made of very ordinary materials. She looked like a lady in trouble for a while.

Lu Xiuyuan's eyes fell on the jade pendant in her hand. To him, who is used to seeing all kinds of rare treasures, this is a jade pendant that cannot be more ordinary. It might be worth one or two hundred taels in an ordinary pawnshop. Silver, but in his eyes, is worthless.

"Sorry, I'm not interested in the girl's jade pendant." Lu Xiuyuan directly refused.

Along the way, whenever their brothers went out to show their faces, there would always be girls approaching them with various reasons, and the method of giving jade pendants was not enough compared to the previous dozens.

"I only want 50 taels." She was drenched all over, seemed a little cold, spoke with trembling voices, wiped her face indiscriminately, and sent the jade pendant forward again, as if she had thought of something, her smile was slightly Bitterly, "I was in trouble when I was away from home, and the little girl was desperate, so she made such a bad plan. I hope the young master will show kindness and help."

Lu Xiuyuan pointed to the front, "There's a pawn shop over there, and the girl's jade pendant is definitely more than 50 taels. Rather than being at a disadvantage in my hands, you might as well give it a good place to go."

Jiang Weiyu raised his head and looked at the man in front of him. He was born with sculpted eyebrows and handsome eyes, elegant and unsurpassed. He is a young man who is easy to fall in love with at first sight. However, he seems to regard himself as someone who doesn't know how to be reserved. woman.That's right, for a person like him, the girl who offered to send him to his door must be like Guo Jiang Zhiqing. Compared with those people, he really has no "level" at all.

Jiang Weiyu turned his head, there was indeed a pawnshop not far in front, outside the door was a curtain with bamboo poles, and a big "Dang" was written on it.

Anyone who can read knows where it is.

She can also read and write, but she can't go there. This jade pendant is the only relic left by her mother. Once it goes to the pawn shop, those people will find out immediately, and then she and the mother will die.

"Sir, don't you think about it again?" Jiang Weiyu thought again and again, and still placed his last hope on the man in front of him, "Ten taels, it can't be less."

She is still waiting for the money to go back to pay the rent and rent out that barely spacious private house, otherwise she and her mother will not even have a place to sleep tonight.

"boring!"

Lu Xiuyuan's brow became more and more cold, and he had no interest in talking to her at all, so he walked forward holding an umbrella.

Jiang Weiyu clenched the jade pendant in his hand, wiped off the rain on his face again, and walked into the alley again.

When he reached a door, he stopped.

It is rainy in the south of the Yangtze River, and the side slope of the house will extend more than a foot wide from the wall. Jiang Weiyu's mother is watching and saluting under the eaves that are more than one foot wide, waiting for her.

Seeing Jiang Weiyu coming back wet all over, Nanny Sun rushed to meet her, her face full of distress, "Girl, why don't you find a place to hide from the rain? Look at you, you are all wet, is it cold, or, Let's find a place to change into clean clothes first, otherwise what should we do if we fall ill at night?"

Jiang Weiyu looked up at the tall residential house in front of her. She originally wanted to rent here, but the lease period was at least half a year, and she would move in after paying the money first.

She couldn't come up with that much money for a while, so she had no choice but to pawn the jade pendant. Unexpectedly, the pawn shop was actually under the name of Jiang's family, so she had to give up the idea and pin her hopes on the passing young man. I thought I could really get the help of noble people, but I never thought that I still have to rely on myself.

Sighing, Jiang Weiyu indifferently lifted up his hair and wrung out the cold rainwater, "I see there is an inn in the town, mother, why don't we go there and stay there for a night before we talk, give me a night , I can definitely think of a way, I still have some broken silver on me."

Seeing Nanny Sun's worried face and red eye circles, she smiled, "I have never suffered from anything since I was a child. For me, the current situation is not the worst. At least, I still have confidence If you can survive, let's go!"

While talking, he bent down to get his luggage.

Grandma Sun stopped her one step ahead, picked up all the bundles, put them on her shoulders and held them in her hands, and scolded bitterly: "If Madam is still alive, how can I get that thing with a screwdriver that doesn't have long eyes?" Bullying on you, the girl has waited for so many years just to return to the Jiang family, never thought about it, never thought about it... Alas, it's all because the slaves are useless, it's all because the slaves are useless!"

Jiang Weiyu lowered his eyelids, his eyes darkened.

Her biological mother passed away early, her father passed away, and her stepmother has never had anything to do, but she treated her very well, treating her like a daughter.

When she was ten years old, her eldest aunt and her father-in-law reconciled with Li Dagui, relying on the support of the old lady to run amok in the house, and got her, the eldest daughter of the first wife, out to the Waizhuang. A month ago, her stepmother wrote to say Her father had already agreed to bring her back and asked her to wait. The Jiang family would send someone to Zhuangzi to pick her up in a few days, but this month has passed, there was no movement from the Jiang family, Jiang Weiyu waited Before it was too late, he took Mammy on the road, intending to go back to Jiang's house to find out.

The Jiang family is a big family here, and if they want to know the inside information, it is impossible to manage it without dozens of taels of silver.

Jiang Weiyu emptied out the only 20 taels of silver left on his body before inquiring about it. The man said that Miss Jiang Jiang Weiyu returned home a month ago.

At that time, Jiang Weiyu thought he heard it wrong, so he hastily handed over the money and asked again. Seeing that she was sincere, the man said a few more words, "A cousin of our family works in Jiangfu, he told me Yes, he said that the eldest aunt of the Jiang family had a bad relationship with this eldest lady before, and later Miss Jiang went to the Waizhuang, and the eldest aunt felt sorry, so she took this opportunity to personally take someone to bring Miss Jiang back .”

Jiang Weiyu was struck by lightning, she was still outside, when did Jiang's mansion gain a young lady?
She didn't believe it, so she quietly hid outside Jiang's mansion and waited until the rumored eldest lady "Jiang Weiyu" came out.

Then that look almost made her scream out.

Because the girl who replaced her into Jiang's mansion was very similar to her.

If he hadn't been really alive, Jiang Weiyu would almost have thought that person was her.

At that time, Jiang Weiyu left the Jiang residence calmly, and told Nanny Sun about the matter. Before the master and servant could discuss a way out, Aunt Jiang noticed her whereabouts, and soon arranged someone Come to plan to assassinate her secretly.

Jiang Weiyu narrowly escaped death with his nanny, and went all the way to this small town. He originally wanted to continue to escape, but he didn't have enough money, so he had to stay here.

Without money, it is difficult to walk an inch. Jiang Weiyu knows a lot of crafts. She plans to rent a private house to live in, and try to earn a little money before continuing. She wants to go to the capital. It is said that there are dignitaries at the foot of the emperor, and the law and order are extremely strict. She thinks, eldest aunt No matter how capable she is, it won't be possible for someone to chase her all the way to the capital, right?

It's just that my road to the north seems to be a bit unsatisfactory!
Shaking back his thoughts, Jiang Weiyu continued to walk forward.

At that time, the elegant room of the tea house in the town.

Lu Xiuyuan and Yi Bai were sitting by the window. In front of them was a quaint Eight Immortals table. On the Eight Immortals table was a set of Jingdezhen blue and white porcelain tea set. In the smooth and delicate cups, the tea soup was clear and fragrant.

It was still raining outside.

"It looks like I can't go back to the city tonight." Lu Xiuyuan said, "I can only feel sorry for Ah Bai and follow me to live in an inn outside."

Only Fucheng has their Jinghuashui Jufen inn here, but it's getting late and the drizzle is continuous, it's really not suitable for departure, Lu Xiuyuan had no choice but to make a bad decision.

Yi Bai smiled lightly, "Anyway, I'm here to play, so if you sleep outside, you can sleep outside. If you feel wronged or not, brother is out of touch." He's just very picky about the cleanliness of the environment. Elegant, luxurious, stylish and perfect, just like the tea set in front of you. It was not this set at the beginning. After entering the room, Lu Xiuyuan frowned and asked for tea sets that others hadn't used. Don't hold out the bottom of the box.

And the best ones from other people's homes seem to be so-so in Lu Xiuyuan's eyes.

So, being rich is great, and being rich and stylish is even more remarkable.

He said that spending the night outside was just enough, but in fact he was very worried that Yi Bai would not get used to it, so he immediately paid someone to book a room at the inn, and then replaced all the bedding and other things inside with new ones. Although not the best, the texture is first-class.

Lu Xiuyuan pursues luxury, but he is not an idiot, and he does not think that the most expensive is the best. He always only believes in his senses and eyes. Yes, then in his eyes, that is the best.

When Jiang Weiyu brought Nanny Sun into the inn, he happened to see a crowd mobilizing people inside to exchange supplies for the generous guest.

After inquiring about the reason, Jiang Weiyu curled her lips, rich people can really squander, as for what the inn clerks just sent up, just a cup for drinking tea is worth three or four times as much as her jade pendant, not to mention The velvet brocade quilt is soft and warm just by looking at it, if you can sleep under it, you will surely have a dream of wealth.

He couldn't live in a room like Lu Xiuyuan's, Jiang Weiyu had the most common room in the entire inn, the room was a little small, but fortunately the bed was spacious enough, two people could still get through it at night.

After setting the salute, Jiang Weiyu said: "Mommy, I'm hungry, when I came here I saw a wonton stand on the street, let's go eat a bowl!"

Grandma Sun choked up a little. If the girl entered Jiang's house, she would live a life of wealth and wealth. How could she be reduced to going out to eat wontons to satisfy her hunger?
Jiang Weiyu seemed to see through her thoughts, and was a little speechless, "Mother, we are already like this, so don't worry about the spring and autumn, okay? Shouldn't you think in the right direction when you are most difficult? Maybe grit your teeth If we survive this test, our good days will come? Alright, alright, we don’t want to do that, let’s go and fill our stomachs first, so I have the strength to plan what to do in the future.”

"Miss is right, it's because the servant is narrow-minded." She said this, but she sighed in her heart. For a girl's family, without the support and protection of her relatives, no matter how capable she is, what fame can she make?What's more, he is still running for his life, and it is still unknown whether he can escape the murder of his aunt!
The master and servant came to the street.

The wonton stand is facing the tea house.

Yi Bai was the first to notice the pair of master and servant, raised his eyebrows, and looked at Lu Xiuyuan, "It turned out to be her?"

Lu Xiuyuan looked down, with a flat expression on his face, as if he was looking at Jiang Weiyu, or something else.

Yi Bai recalled the incident earlier, "Looking at the appearance of this girl, she really doesn't look like she came from a wealthy family. Maybe she really fell into trouble, but it seems that she was misunderstood by her brother!"

Lu Xiuyuan looked indifferent, "It's just a chance encounter. I have no obligation to help her. If I had to take action on everyone who is in trouble, then the Lu family would have gone bankrupt long ago."

Yi Bai stopped talking, and looked away from Jiang Weiyu.

The two brothers sat in the tea house for a while, and went to the inn after the rain stopped completely.

At the same time, Jiang Weiyu and Nanny Sun had just finished eating wontons and were about to go back.

Then there was an embarrassing scene, Jiang Weiyu followed Lu Xiuyuan all the time.

Lu Xiuyuan didn't know that she lived in the same inn as their brothers, but he didn't have a good impression of this girl, so he frowned and turned to look at her, "What do you want to do?"

Jiang Weiyu looked directly into Lu Xiuyuan's eyes, and said calmly, "Go my own way."

Lu Xiuyuan had a headache, because this kind of situation was too common before. He didn't accept gifts from those girls, and the girls followed him all the time.

"Don't you want to sell the jade pendant? It's 100 taels." Lu Xiuyuan took out two 50 taels of silver notes and handed them to her, "I don't want to see you again."

Jiang Weiyu was a little funny, this person really regarded her as a woman who admired him, "Although I don't want to see you again, but I'm sorry, I can sell my jade pendant to anyone, but I won't sell it to you. "

Lu Xiuyuan: "Oh!" Playing hard to get?
Jiang Weiyu didn't pay any attention to him, and took Nanny Sun straight to the inn.

　The timeline of this extra episode is connected with the time in the main text when the two brothers Lu Xiuyuan and Yi Bai went to Jiangnan, so don’t confuse it with the extra episode.
