It was inevitable that a fire would break out in a dilapidated house, and it would not be unusual for the two little servant girls to burn themselves to death because they were so stupid and weak.
"Killing is too serious." Mr. Lu Kang glared at the steward and twisted the Buddhist beads in his hand.
The marriage certificate has been burned.
At first, Mr. Lu and Mr. Nayue just met by chance. Not many people knew about it, and no one knew about the entrustment of their marriage.
It was a righteous act of the Lu family to take this little servant girl in after Old Man Yue died.
What evidence does the little maid have to spread the word about the Lu family's treachery?
Ridiculous.
Such a ridiculous thing, the Lu family took action to get rid of this slave girl first, but instead left a clue and soiled their identity.
Her son will be a general or general in the future, so there is no need for a little bed bug to leave a stain.
"Anyway, she was raised in front of me." Lu Kangshi said slowly, turning the prayer beads, "She didn't know that life was hard, so she ran away in anger. After she suffered, she will know my hard work, and she will understand when the time comes.
If she comes back obediently, our Lu family will not make things difficult for her, so——"
After that, he looked at the steward.
"Let her know that the world is difficult."
The steward understood, nodded in agreement, and sighed: "Madam has the heart of a Bodhisattva." After saying that, he left.
A satisfied smile appeared on Mrs. Lu Kang's face. Letting the little maid die was nothing. After having tortured her enough, she knelt at her feet and confessed her crime and begged for mercy. She could speak out and gain a good reputation.
Let that little maid know that while a person is alive, death is nothing, but life and death are terrible.
"Madam." A maid came in from outside the door and asked with a smile, "The master said that the letter to the third young master is about to be sent out. Madam, is there anything else you want to take with you?"
Mr. Lu Kang immediately put down his Buddhist beads and hurriedly called the maids to "fetch the packed baggage."
The baggage was brought in, looked over, replenished, and replaced, and the room was in a hectic state.
"Brother, it's the same. If you are admitted as a scholar, come home as soon as possible. If you come home, you can apply for it and become an official in the state and county." Lu Rui sat aside and ate snacks while complaining, "Why are you going to the capital again?
Going to take the exam is unnecessary, and it will take another year to come back." [Note]
"What do you know? How can you call it unnecessary? Is the promotion of officials from prefectures and counties the same as going to the capital to enter the Imperial Academy and being given the power by the emperor?" Lu Kang said, with a face full of joy, "In that case, your brother will be the emperor's son.
student."
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but clasp her hands and recite Buddha's name. When her son became a close minister of the emperor, she, Lu Kang, would be full of color in the family tree in her lifetime.
Her good son.
Of course she also misses her son, and wonders if he has lost weight? Although he has servants to take care of him, there is no place like home.
With tears in Lu Kang's eyes, she suddenly saw a pair of shoes stuffed in the bag and pointed at them immediately.
"What's going on? The stitching on the soles of these shoes is not good," she said. "Why is it half dense and half loose? Who made it?"
The maidservant's expression was a bit sarcastic, "Madam, originally, Miss Ah Qi did half of this, she, she."
Yes, that little bitch is good at needlework. She made all the shoes, socks and clothes of the third young master. Now that he has been driven away, the unfinished shoes are made by someone else.
Lu Kangshi took the shoe and looked around. It felt uncomfortable, so she threw it out.
"That's all." She said, "These three pairs are enough."
Why didn't you finish making the shoes before you ran away? You're such a bad heart.
"Send the things over quickly." Mrs. Lu Kang said. Seeing the baggage being carried out by the maids, her heart flew to where the good boy was.
Although the Lu family's business has not reached the capital yet, with their current wealth, it is not a big deal to go to the capital to deliver letters and serve the young master.
With a good car, good horses and good servants, and a car full of love and care from family members, it only took half a month to reach the capital.
At this time, Mr. Lu Sangong, who was traveling from the county town with a group of classmates and friends, touring the mountains and rivers and visiting celebrities along the way, had not yet reached the capital.
The servants of the Lu family did not have much time to do in the capital. They checked the rented house, cleaned and waited, so that the young master could feel at home as soon as he entered the capital.
Nowadays, the world is at peace and the official roads are always open, but the road is still very hard due to the wind and sun and the bumpy carriage and horses.
When a group of scholars came to the boundary of the capital and looked at the city that was entrenched on the ground like a giant beast, they all looked a little embarrassed in their clothes and appearance, which made people on the road look at them like country people.
"I should find a place to stay to wash up and rest before heading to Beijing." A young man suggested, raising his hand to wipe the sweat from his face, but it left a stain. This was because the dust was mixed with the sweat.
.
This proposal was approved by many people.
"So as not to damage our appearance and make people look down on us Yucheng scholars -" a chubby young man said loudly, his eyes moved as he spoke, and he suddenly stopped and changed his words, "However, there is something different
Now, no one can underestimate us."
Following his gaze, everyone else looked over and saw someone on the last car lifting the curtain.
This is a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old, with a jade face and starry eyes, wide and fluttering sleeves, and a handsome appearance.
Hearing everyone's words and facing everyone's gaze, he showed no restraint and was calm and relaxed.
"Yes, don't worry, everyone, no one can underestimate us, Mr. Yu." He said, pointing forward, "My servants have arrived in the capital and have booked an inn at the gate of the city, waiting for me to go there.
We can go straight in by car, wash up, rest, and change clothes, then we can walk into the city and enjoy the scenery of the capital."
Even if you are outside the city gate, you have entered the city. It is much better than the inns and tea sheds on the roadside. What's more, they have booked an entire inn, which is quiet and comfortable for them. What's more, someone else pays for it.
of!
They don't have to spend a penny!
When I saw the young man's smile and heard the first half of his words, several scholars in the team flashed disdain in their eyes. This Lu Yinzhi was really arrogant because of his beauty. He felt proud when others praised his appearance. It was really unpleasant.
But when he heard the next sentence, the disdain in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a smile and unconcealable envy.
Hey, I really can't help it. Lu Yizhi, Third Young Master Lu, is really good-looking, rich, wealthy and generous. People really can't help but like him.
These people looked at this young man who looked like a beautiful orchid tree, and laughed loudly along with the others.
"The third young master is so young and charming!"
…
…
The inn at the entrance to the capital is not big, but has a beautiful courtyard.
As soon as a dozen scholars came in in the car, the hot water in the bathtub was ready. They washed them carefully from head to toe. After washing, they put on new clothes and sat back in the rocking chairs. Some people squeezed their feet and beat their legs, while others sprinkled them with water.
The charcoal oven with orange peels was used to bake the hair.
These serving slaves are not from the Lu family, but official slaves hired by the Lu family.
"My maidservant." An older scholar couldn't help but look at the maidservant who was kneeling in front of him and squeezing his feet.
The maidservant looks beautiful, and the way she pinches and beats the legs is light and comfortable. It is definitely not a skill that ordinary maidservants can have.
"Your maidservant is responsible for pinching feet at home, right?" The older scholar was not from a poor background, but had seen the world.
For the wealthy and prestigious noble families, the maids were divided into different categories and refined to the point of specialization.
The maid smiled and praised: "Master has good eyesight, but this maid is showing off her ugly skills."
The older scholar smiled and nodded and said, "That's great."
The people next to me heard this and couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Is it so powerful, or does it specialize in foot massage? Isn't it expensive?"
The Lu family servant standing by listened and said with a smile: "It's not expensive, it's not expensive. Nowadays, there are plenty of official slaves, so the price is very cheap."
The other person closed his eyes and felt the maid gently rubbing his scalp, and said: "This is true. Since the Jin Wang case, how many noble families have had their homes confiscated. The maids in the noble families are not ordinary, and they are worth the price."
At this point, the man chuckled again.
"Now that I can use such servants and maids, I would like to thank Du Cha Si, especially that Du Du Huo——"
Before he finished speaking, the older scholars next to him coughed repeatedly.
"Silence!"
"Do not say silly things!"
Can the Chief Inspector be allowed to discuss it? Especially Governor Huo, who even made fun of it.
The person who spoke was shocked by the cough and came back to his senses. He was a little uneasy and a little dissatisfied: "I didn't say anything. Why can't I say what I did? There is no one else here."
No one else? Although the inn is reserved, where are the waiters in the inn? There are also these official slaves.
Although the Ducha Division has only been established for five years, in addition to the "Yin soldiers", there are countless "Yin people" all over the place. The vendors in the streets and the servants of the wealthy families may all be the Yin people of the Du Cha Division, spying on them.
Every move, or otherwise many private conversations in the inner rooms of the house would be known to the Du Cha Si.
The older scholar looked at the maidservant who was kneeling in front of him and pinching her feet. The maidservant lowered her eyebrows and was quiet, as if she couldn't hear what they were saying.
………
Note: It is fictitious and random fabrication. It is not the era of imperial examination. It is a mixed setting of the nine grades of examination and examination.
There is no need to comment on the status of a scholar and there is nothing to be proud of, it is not the same as the theory.
Don't expect, don't have feelings, don't compare, don't think, just be simple, be relaxed, just watch a story and have fun.
