Chapter 1692: Once you enter the Hou family, its as deep as the sea (19)
Standing at the most crowded market entrance, Lan Ruyu felt embarrassed for the first time.
Although she did not think that she was a superior young lady of the Hou family, she also did not expect that she would be reduced to selling goods on the street.
Thinking of the task Jin Qing gave her, Lan Ruyu looked down at her toes. It was so embarrassing that she really couldn't open her mouth.
Lan Ruyun was standing in the distance looking anxiously at Lan Ruyu. The eldest sister had told her that she would help Lan Ruyu raise the price, but she couldn't figure it out. She and Lan Ruyu were both from Lan Mansion. She was in
Can outsiders believe this price increase?
But thinking about what Jin Qing said, "If you can't sell it for money, don't come back alive." Lan Ruyun felt a little nervous. Why did she think her sister would keep her word?
Thinking of this, Lan Ruyun gritted her teeth and walked towards Lan Ruyu. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a man's joking voice not far away, "Aren't these the second and third misses from the Huaiyin Marquis' residence? Could it be?"
Life in the Marquis of Huaiyin's house is unbearable, and I want you two girls to come out and stand on the bridge."
Lan Ruyu looked for a reputation, but saw that the person coming was a young man with a proud face and gorgeous clothes.
Lan Ruyu's heart suddenly felt sudden. This person was Wei Rongzu, the eldest son of General Wei Zhanfeng of Dingyuan. He was famous in the capital for his promiscuity.
After Wei Zhanfeng married a noble wife, he took his little cousin as a concubine.
Later, wives and concubines became pregnant at the same time, which became an elegant thing among the literati at that time. .??.
As a result, his wife's child was not born, but his cousin's child was born. This child was Wei Rongzu.
But Wei Zhanfeng's first wife was really a generous person. Not only did she keep Wei Rongzu by her side, but she was also very obedient to Wei Rongzu, not giving up the moon for stars.
Xu was the child she had raised since childhood, and the wife really loved Wei Rongzu extremely.
Whenever Wei Rongzu had a conflict with others, it was always the others who were scolded and punished.
<
br> Whenever there are any good things in the family, they will be sent to Wei Rongzu first. Even the wife's own biological children cannot get past him.
As time went by, Wei Zhanfeng began to pamper him without restraint, and he also developed Wei Rongzu's fearless temperament.
After listening to Wei Rongzu's words, Lan Ruyu's hands trembled slightly. She spent a lot of effort not to let her anger show.
"Zhanqiao" is the joking name given to those secret servants by the second generation sons in the capital. She didn't expect that Wei Rongzu would use it on her today.
Lan Ruyu wanted to reach out and slap Wei Rongzu, but she was afraid that someone would find out that she could understand such slang, and her reputation would be completely ruined.
Therefore, even though she was extremely angry, she could only grit her teeth and endure it.
But Lan Ruyun really didn't understand the meaning of these words.
Although she came down from the mountain, she usually goes around trying to catch people for martial arts competitions.
Most of the high-ranking disciples in Beijing would go around her, and she wouldn't get any latest news.
And unlike Lan Ruyu, who likes to stay in well-informed teahouses and taverns, she doesn't understand the slang of these second sons at all.
Seeing that Lan Ruyu seemed to have something wrong, Lan Ruyun walked towards Lan Ruyu a little faster.
As the person who hates Lan Ruyu the most, Lan Ruyun is very aware of Lan Ruyun's every move.
Looking at Lan Ruyu's straight back at this moment, Lan Ruyun knew in her heart that Lan Ruyu was bluffing.
With the thought that the Lan family could only fight among themselves? Lan Ruyun was immediately ready to go up and fight Wei Rongzu.
Who would have thought that Lan Ruyu would also see Lan Ruyun walking away angrily. For fear of Lan Ruyun causing trouble, Lan Ruyu forced a smile to Wei Rongzu, "My family has been inconvenient recently? So my father planned to give the family heirloom to
Take it out? I want to see if there is anyone who knows the goods and can give me an estimate of the price."
After listening to Lan Ruyu's words, Wei Rongzu was immediately amused and laughed out loud, "Is it still convenient for the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion to bring out family heirlooms? Does your family have anything else that can be sold besides people?"
Lan Ruyun was so angry at Wei Rongzu's laughter that she reached out and grabbed the bundle in Lan Ruyu's hand, "You dare to insult my Lan family, then come and draw the line!"
Seeing the excitement here, passers-by immediately gathered around.
When everyone found out that it was a little girl confronting a boy, the passers-by immediately started to boo.
In front of everyone, Lan Ruyun carefully opened the package in his hand and took out a long black sword from inside.
After taking out the sword, the crowd burst into laughter.
Swords these days all pay attention to the sudden appearance of cold light. The so-called cold light is not only a requirement for the material of the sword, but also a requirement for the color.
Therefore, swordsmith masters regard it as beautiful to make silver swords.
But the sword in Lan Ruyun's hand was not only gray in color, but the blade was also blunt, as if it had never been sharpened.
The most shabby thing is that not only does this sword not have a scabbard, it doesn't even have a hilt. It is simply wrapped with rags and linen.
Not to mention the passers-by, even Wei Rongzu laughed so hard that he couldn't stand up straight: "Let me just say, the Huaiyin Marquis Mansion is only poor, so how can there be any heirlooms left?"
But then again, this family heirloom and Huaiyin
The Marquis Mansion is really worthy, it’s so shabby that it’s breathtaking, why do you want me to waste time here with you? Let’s take a walk, I’ll take you to drink!”
After saying this, Wei Rongzu turned around and left with a few guards behind him. Why did he want to bully a few down-and-out households? He simply lost his reputation as a playboy.
Seeing that Wei Rongzu was about to leave, Lan Ruyun, who was annoyed by the laughter, threw away Lan Ruyu who was holding him, waved the "sword" in his hand and waved it behind Wei Rongzu, "Stop."
Maybe he felt the noise behind him, and one of Wei Rongzu's guards suddenly turned around, pulled out the big sword from his waist and went to stop Lan Ruyun's sword.
Just hearing a "clang", the whole place fell silent instantly.
It turned out that the sword strike that Lan Ruyun had just struck had actually split the guard's saber in half.
Everyone looked at the broken knife on the ground and wondered how this girl had so much strength!
Lan Ruyun was also dumbfounded as she looked at the broken knife on the ground. When did she have such strength? Fortunately, it was not wrapped around someone just now, otherwise she would have caused a big disaster.
After all, she is still a little girl. Even if she likes to cause trouble, she will not really treat human life as nothing.
Wei Rongzu was obviously very frightened. He took two steps back and shrank behind a guard. "I remember that your weapons are all new. Did someone cut corners?" In all conscience, if he had known earlier that this girl was so tall.
With his martial arts skills, he would never come looking for trouble just now.
After all, he is just being generous and not crazy.
After hearing Wei Rongzu's words, the guard who had just broken his sword turned around numbly, "Our weapons are very good, but there is something wrong with the weapon in her hand."
After all, he was someone who had fought against each other before. He could tell Lan Ruyun's kung fu just by trying it, but he couldn't see through the weapon in Lan Ruyun's hand.
