Chapter 65
"Look what day is convenient. I sent someone to rest and reorganize the garden. Let me do it. You don't need to worry about it." Lu Zhiyao said, with one hand on his hips, pointing to Jiangshan with pride, "The rocks need to be piled up, and the ponds must be piled up. The mud needs to be dug again, the flowers and plants need to be replanted, and the soil needs to be refilled! And the gazebo over there needs to be rebuilt, every house needs to be repaired, the walls have to be repainted, and the tiles have been removed and rearranged..."
Don't expect to hear very confused, but just saw that the garden is very chaotic, and he mentioned it to know that there are so many places to be moved, so it is a big project, and it is absolutely impossible to do it without 1000 taels of silver. After thinking about it, where is it? So much money?Zhuangzi's land is reluctant to sell, and he can only rely on the rent from those tenants. I don't know how much he can earn in a year. Besides, it's not yet time to collect the rent. I can't even get it together.Then he shook his head and said, "Let's wait a little longer, I don't have any money right now, let's talk about it when I have more money."
Lu Zhiyao patted his chest generously and said, "For the sake of calling me Uncle Six, I'll put it on for you first, and it won't be too late to return it when I have it later."
Wuwang refused without even thinking about it, and said bluntly, "I'm not in a hurry to move back now, and I don't want to owe anyone any kindness. I appreciate Uncle Six's kindness." Owing him in this life is enough for her to repay No, it's not good to go around crediting favor accounts.
Lu Zhiyao didn't force it, thinking that she really was a high-minded girl, he couldn't help but think her up a little more, and said softly, "Then if you have anything to do, just call me, I'm a idler, I always have time."
Wuwang nodded his thanks, went back to his parents' bedroom, raised his skirt and stepped on the marble floor, kicking up a thick layer of dust, walking all the way, looking back, it was like stepping on snow, There was a clear string of footprints behind him.Passing through the carved door covered with cobwebs, there is a frame under the window, on which is a half-embroidered picture of the three friends of Sui Han. This is the only thing left by my mother. Fortunately, it was not damaged during the raid. After unloading it, she didn't care about the ashes anymore, and pressed her chest hard, as if a hole had been broken in her heart, and the cold wind was blowing in, the embroidery was like a plug, pressing it hard could block the hole, and she could Pain relief.
Lu Zhiyao is well-informed when he asks himself, there are many sisters and maids in his family, and their frowns and smiles may be dignified or soft, but he has never seen her crying like that!He only frowned, silently, the tears were like water that opened the gate, pouring out from the corners of his eyes continuously, for a moment he was really worried that she would cry until she became dehydrated!This kind of self-abuse crying is really rare, it doesn't bother you, but it can break your heart!She also thought that she must have developed the habit of being locked up in Jinyiwei's dungeon when she was young. She couldn't make a sound and could only hold back. If the group of cold-blooded animals noticed it, they would definitely not be able to escape the whip!Thinking of this, Mrs. Lu's heart throbbed in pain. Seeing Danxia's soft words to comfort her for a long time had no effect, she wished to kick her out and put herself in the battle. After hesitating for a while, she was about to speak, but she stopped crying up.
Wu Wang covered his eyes with a handkerchief, took a deep breath and said, "Uncle Liu laughed, let's go back."
Lu Zhiyao nodded blankly, several people left the house, Qianqiu also bought a new lock, the door was closed and locked again, Lu Zhiyao said to the attendant, "Someone will clean up the front of the door later, Coax all those beggars away, this place has become a stage." Yan Bihuwang got into the car, and a group of people went to Xie's mansion.
After arriving at the main gate of Xie's mansion, Wuwang got off the car and saw that Lu Zhiyao was still on the horse, so he said, "Sixth uncle, won't you go in and sit down for a while? It's noon, let's go after dinner."
Lu Zhiyao knew that she said polite words, a big girl left men to eat in the yard, if word got out, she might not be able to marry in this life, she said casually, he took it seriously, wouldn't that be Do you not know the current affairs?He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, but I haven't changed my clothes today, so it's inconvenient to go in, so I'll bother you next time."
Seeing that there was still dust on his black gauze hat, he covered his mouth and smiled and nodded.
Lu Zhiyao was stunned for a moment, seeing her looking up at him, her palm-sized face glowed like white porcelain in the sun, with willow brows and phoenix eyes, she spoke and laughed, she was so beautiful, her heart skipped a beat, The secret path is seven points polite, three points alienated, rare!
"Thanks to Uncle Six today," Wu Wangfu said, "Uncle Six can go."
Lu Zhiyao said, "You go back, it's cold, freeze carefully."
Wu Wang sighed, and was supported by Danxia across the high threshold, without looking back, he went straight.When the figure was gone, Lu Zhiyao reined in his horse's head and headed slowly towards home.
Don't expect that as soon as you enter the door, you will feel that today is very different from the past. Although those maids and women are usually in awe, they are looking at the old lady. They are not as courteous and considerate as they are today. Sighing secretly, it really is different to have a property. In the past, she was an orphan with no property, and she probably won't hear anyone mocking behind her back in the future.
At the second gate, someone passed on the old lady's words, saying that the girl would let her go to the Qinfang Garden as soon as she came back. Danxia said, "The old lady must be very happy, and can't wait to hear what the girl has to say!"

The master and servant walked around the front garden from under the porch and went straight to Qinfang Garden. They heard congratulatory words all the way, and they responded indifferently, and didn't take it to heart. It was a room full of female relatives, and even Fangling, who was invisible to ordinary people, also came.
The old lady said, "It's all over now, we, Sister Chun, are at the end of it. Although the court didn't give Uncle Liu a vindication, I don't like it, but at least I got my property back. Anyone with a discerning eye can see what happened." It's over, since everyone has gone, I don't care about these things, as long as our sister has a solid foundation for the rest of her life, I will be happy."
Everyone agreed, and the third wife said, "It's alright this time, let's wait for the kisser to step on the threshold, let's make a good choice, Mr. Liu is gone, but the real estate left behind Enough to feed a person for a lifetime, let's see who dares to look down on our sister." He glanced at Mrs. Wu intentionally or unintentionally.
Gu Wang was not interested in marriage or anything, so he gave the old lady all the land deeds in the satin bag, "I beg my grandmother to keep it for me, and I have to ask my elder brother to help me take care of those Zhuangzi's fields. Now the property has been taken back." I'm afraid that people from the Liu clan will also make trouble and disturb the peace of aunts, sisters-in-law and sisters."
The old lady gave the brocade bag to Xing'er, told her to put it away, and said, "Put it here with me first, and when you get out of the pavilion, I will let you take it to your husband's house intact. As for the group of Xiao Xiao from the Liu family, you don't have to." I'm worried, since they won't even take the tablet into the ancestral hall, I'd like to see which one of them dares to make a fuss. If they really want to make a fuss, they will turn it over to Dali Temple and ask the minister of Dali Temple to judge. Each of them has their own property. It's not like Liu Yu has no descendants. The daughters from the first line are in front of her. How sooner or later will it be their turn to share? Besides, your uncle is still there, let alone their favor. If they are sensible, they won't come. With your uncle, I'm not afraid of them making trouble."
The eldest lady Bai said, "The old lady is right, you can relax, your eldest brother will do his best to help you take care of the affairs of the village, right now you still have to write a letter to Hong Erye, they are staying in Beidi It’s not a solution, you have to come back and host.”
"I think it's better not to ask them to come back." The grandma said, "If they come back, in the future, when my younger sister leaves the court, they will marry their niece and daughter. They will only prepare dozens of dowry, and they will lose their property in vain! Listen! Said that they still have a boy, so they sent away their younger sister, and they can sit back and relax because they eat hot food and drink spicy food. Wouldn’t the younger sister feel wronged, and the fourth uncle sacrificed his life for the land, which is cheap for them to enjoy.”
Everyone didn't know what kind of relationship Wu Wang had with his uncle's family, they only cared for their own girl, and they all felt that Ming Yu's words were reasonable, but Wu Wang said, "I still want to call them back. I will follow my uncle and aunt after I was eight years old. They treat me like a relative, without them protecting me all the way, I am afraid that I will die long ago, I regard them as my parents in my heart, and my younger brother is also very good, I would rather let them marry me, so that I will be happy in the future You can go back to your mother's house."
After hearing this, the old lady said, "That's what your uncle and nephew meant, just call back when you call them back. Today is a good day, and I originally wanted the whole family to gather together to celebrate, who would have thought that the old man of the Lu family would die again, man We are going to pay filial piety, it would be boring to eat and drink only us, so let’s do it another day.” Then he waved his hand and said, “Go back and rest, I’m tired too, only sister Chun, our grandparents and grandchildren are left behind. Talk."
Everyone dared not contradict, they all said blessings and went out. Wuwang sat down next to the old lady. The old lady ordered someone to carry the smoker, took off her shoes, put her feet on the smoker, and said , "Have you visited the old house today? It must have been destroyed."
Wu Wang said, "According to Sixth Uncle Lu, many places have to be relocated, but now it's very bleak."
The old lady Xie said in surprise, "The sixth master of the Lu family doesn't know that his grandfather is dead? Has no one reported it? Does he still have time to go to the old house with you?"
"It seems that I didn't follow up the letter," Wu Wang asked, "When did it happen?"
The old lady Xie said, "It took me two minutes to swallow my breath. Now I guess that things like hanging filial piety curtains and building a drummer shed archway in front of the door should stop. It's strange to say that if you are not sick or disaster Is it the funeral? Wanting to come to the court to abolish the three fathers and the three orphans made the old man Lu angry, so he let go."
Wu Wang said, "Why do you abolish the three lords and the three orphans again? This emperor is quick-tempered and has an iron fist."
The old lady Xie shook her head, "It's a good thing for you to say! My own uncles were demoted and exiled one by one, and they didn't care about the slightest family affection. The emperor did this, but he was a lonely family." She rubbed her hand again and said, "Go up! I haven't asked you about you and Shen Xing yet, but you two are really interested? There are no outsiders here, so don't be shy, tell me, and I can make plans for you. I think your second brother is first-class One is a good boy, good-looking, and honest. Your second aunt may not agree. Now that we have a solid foundation, I think she has nothing to say. You don’t know, Brother Xing begged me for you, With tears in my eyes, I looked pitiful, and I couldn’t respond well to him. I still feel sorry for him up to this point. Now I’ll listen to you. If you nod, we’ll settle the matter years ago, Brother Xing I'm going to take office in Beiping next year, and you two go together, how do you think?"
Wu Wang was so bluffed that he quickly shook his head and said, "That's what I mean, no matter what, I only treat him as an elder brother, and I know what he's thinking. It's all as if I failed his kindness. The old lady quickly find him a second sister-in-law." Well, I can't."
The old lady Xie sighed helplessly. If they can't be tied up as a couple, they can only let them go.
