First Empress Merchant

Chapter 16 Where is Home?
"I... don't know, Changqing has lost his parents since he was nine years old, and he treated him as a reborn parent after following his benefactor, but now his benefactor only left a letter and disappeared, Changqing really doesn't know what to do! And Miss Lu is also a poor person, and also a mentally handicapped woman, thinking that Changqing is a man after all, so he can take care of him, so..." Wu Changqing raised his head and said, with an indescribably pitiful look.

Lu Lishi rubbed her aching forehead, now she really didn't know whether to cry or laugh, he himself is a pitiful little boy, how could he pity her in turn?And what's even more tragic is that she seems unable to say no...

"That's fine! Let's stay here for one night tonight, and get up early tomorrow. I'm one year older than you. You can call me sister from now on, and my father is your adoptive father. Can you willing?"

"Yes! Changqing is naturally willing! My sister is here, and I will be worshiped by Changqing!" Seeing that Lu Lishi agreed, Wu Changqing was so excited that he immediately performed a standard kneeling salute.

Lu Lishi smiled bitterly and took him to rest. From now on, three people will become four people. What should I do? Let's talk about it tomorrow. She really doesn't have the energy to think about it.

Many years later, every time Lu Lishi thinks back to this moment, she regrets why she agreed to take him with her in the first place. If she didn't take him with her, such a boy with a heart cleaner than Qingquan might not have such an ending, right?But she was also very fortunate to have brought him along, otherwise it would have been difficult for her to survive during that most difficult time, but where did so many ifs come from during this time?
"Miss, do you really want to bring Mr. Wu? We don't know him well, so we don't know if he is a good guy or not!" Taking advantage of the time when Lu Lishi asked Wu Changqing to buy dry food, Xin'er muttered in a low voice.

Lu Lishi smiled, "Then do you think I'm a good person?"

Xin'er nodded vigorously: "Miss is naturally the best person in the world! It is thanks to Miss and Master that the servants can live to this day!"

Lu Lishi shook her head lightly, "Back then when you brought it home, it was just to support one more person, not bad for that money, but then you saw that I castrated Liu Yangming, cut off Fang Dayou's hand, and threatened Erniang with death, Do you still think I'm a good person?"

Hearing this, Xin'er stomped her feet anxiously, "That's why they bullied us first!"

Lu Lishi laughed again, "So nothing is absolute, what is 'Do unto others as you would have them do unto you'? Under the premise that it is even difficult to protect myself, I would rather be a villain, because I just want to live and let The people I care about are alive, such as Dad, such as you, that's all, understand?"

Maybe it's just superficial words, maybe she doesn't care about anyone, but when she is most helpless, someone will stand up to protect her and never leave her, she will remember their kindness, no matter what happens in the future, she will be worthy of her heart just fine.

"Miss..." When Xin'er heard that she was also someone that Miss cared about, his eyes were so moved that his eyes were moist.

"Well, there are many times when a woman is not as convenient as a man. He is also alone, so you can just treat it as convenient for others or yourself? What's more, we are in such a bad situation, and they may not always follow us, right? "Actually, when Lu Lishi said this, she saw Wu Changqing who was back from shopping out of the corner of her eye, so she said it to him on purpose.

Turning his head to look at the corner, he smiled slightly, "Are you back? Is everything going well?"

"This bag is dry food, this bag is what you want." Wu Changqing heard Lu Lishi calling him, and walked towards her after a while, with a sullen expression on his face.

"Xin'er, go in and wake Dad up. These are things for him to disguise. Go and help him get them. It's about time we set off." Lu Lishi glanced at Wu Changqing and handed the burden to Xin'er.

"Okay miss, I'm going right now." Xin'er bowed and turned to go in.

After opening the letter, Lu Lishi said again: "What's the matter? Are you unhappy?"

Wu Changqing took a look at Lu Lishi, shook his head, and then handed her another bundle, "This is Changqing's clothes. Elder Sister and Changqing are not too different in stature. Elder Sister can just find one and change it. It's always inconvenient to walk long distances in skirts."

"Thank you!" These words made Lu Lishi sure that he had heard it, so she didn't say much, took the burden and walked in, but stopped after thinking about it before entering the door, but didn't turn around.

"If you are unhappy because of what I just said, I won't explain it, and you can do whatever you want."

"Sister, don't underestimate Changqing! Changqing paid homage to sister, and wherever sister goes, Changqing will go there!" Probably out of breath, Wu Changqing rarely shouted at the top of his voice.

Lu Lishi was taken aback for a moment, she didn't expect the child's focus to be this, she sighed silently and went in.

But she finally knew why she couldn't reject him, because seeing him was like seeing herself in a previous life.She was also an orphan in that life, and she longed for family affection too much. She would take care of anyone who treated her better, and the child behind her was like this?She only thought of disguising for Lu Yizhuo, not of herself, but he thought of it for her, but it would be terrible to be nice to someone too easily, so she didn't explain, it would be good for him to keep some distance.

Half an hour later, a group of four walked out of the city.There was no big problem at first, but Lu Yizhuo was too noisy all the way, he had to look at everything he saw, although they succeeded in disguise, but where is the capital?They are all dignitaries, who doesn't have an eyeliner?Being made such a fuss by Lu Yizhuo, it will be a matter of time before her identity is exposed.

There was really no way, so Lu Lishi discussed with Wu Changqing with a bitter face whether he could get some money to buy a carriage, at least wait until he left the city, Wu Changqing immediately took the money, but just as he walked to the post station, he saw Lu Su walking beside him The wife stood there.

"Uncle and Aunt Lu?" Lu Lishi handed the burden to Xin'er and walked towards them.

"...Miss? We've been waiting for you guys!" Lu Su heard the voice and hurriedly raised his head to look for the person. After seeing Lu Lishi dressed in men's clothing, he identified them carefully for a long time, and then recognized Xin'er and Lu Yizhuo dressed as an old man. Can't help but walk towards her excitedly.

Lu Lishi frowned slightly, "Uncle and Aunt Lu, where are you going with your burdens?"

Lu Su took his wife's hand and replied, "Of course the villain and his wife are here to follow Master and Miss!"

Hearing this, Lu Lishi was surprised and said: "You guys know what happened last night? But how did you know that I would come here?"

Lu Su smiled bitterly and said, "As soon as the villain heard that the young lady took the master away, he thought that you would leave Beijing if you had nowhere to go. Not only the villain and his wife, but also the villain's two children were waiting at the other two inns. on."

Lu Lishi suddenly had a headache, and she had to sigh that it was God's will to trick people!
To be honest, she actually didn't want to bring any of them, Lu Yizhuo had no choice but to live without Xin'er, besides, Wu Changqing, even as a companion, at least young, but Lu Su was much older than Lu Yizhuo, although his wife was young, However, due to dystocia during childbirth, he has been suffering from the root cause of the disease, and he is not able to work hard, and it is even more impossible to bring the two children who are still studying.
