Chapter 253 Ma Su: It’s a showdown, I’m an undercover agent
Lu Meng turned around, got up and caught Ma Su, and said softly: "I have been in a trance these past two days, and it is difficult to tell the truth from the false. Is this true? I was still ignorant two days ago.
Yellow-haired girl, now you have become a married woman, why does it feel like a dream?"
After listening to this, Ma Su burst out laughing. He thought to himself, 'A woman's sixth sense is so terrifying. I try so hard, but she can still feel it's unreal... It seems I have to hurry up and take action.'
'Otherwise, the night will be long and the dreams will be many.'
Had dinner.
Lu Meng called the maid to clean up the leftovers, came to Ma Su and said, "Husband, I still can't figure out how a hero like you ended up here in the Central Plains?"
The implication is, why didn't a great talent like Ma Su, who was capable of literary and military skills and could win over people's hearts, take advantage of the troubled times to gather a group of people and create a new world?
Ma Su waved his hand and smiled and said: "Of course there is a reason. When we were young, Cao Cao occupied the sky in the north, and Sun Quan occupied the land in the east of the Yangtze River. Not as good as the weak crown, Liu Bei already dominated Xichuan. In this way, the world is divided into three parts.
, there is no longer a land without one, so I have no choice but to go south to make a living."
Lu Meng slowly sat next to Ma Su, leaned over and said quietly: "I wonder what your husband's ambitions are?"
"Crack the earth to become king, and make your wife a shadow child."
Lu Meng was shocked when she heard this and opened her mouth slightly. She didn't expect that her husband's ambition was so great that even the Wu Kingdom could not fit in it.
But they, the Lu family, can pretend.
Diversifying investments is a strategy that every big family in this era deeply believes in. The Lu family also wants to do this, but unfortunately, there is only one master in Jiangdong, Sun Quan, so they have no choice.
If Ma Wu (Su) really has potential, it is not impossible to invest in it.
Thinking of this, Lu Meng got up and went to a wooden cabinet, opened the lock, took out a wooden box, opened it, and took out a paper book wrapped in several layers of cloth.
Ma Su took it and looked at it carefully, and found that it actually belonged to the family tree and assets of the Lu family. The family tree also recorded Lu Xun, the leader of another branch.
As for the total assets of Lu Meng's group, including business names, cloth shops, grain stores, banks, and restaurants, they can be found in almost all the big cities in the four southwest counties of Jiaozhou. Not to mention being rich enough to rival the country, they are enough to arm tens of thousands of troops in an instant.
Frankly speaking, the value recorded in this book is limited, but Lu Meng's affection is deeper than three mountains and five mountains.
"I miss my horse...s...five. I spent half of my life wandering and wandering. It is already a huge blessing to marry my wife. I didn't expect to receive such a generous gift today. I am really ashamed, ashamed."
After saying that, he put the book in his arms.
There is no hint of shame.
Lu Meng stretched out her hand to stop him like a reflex, but she only extended her hand halfway, then slowly retracted it, realizing that this was what she wanted to give to her husband.
My whole person belongs to him, and of course the dowry also belongs to him.
Ma Su put away the roster, raised his hand and pulled Lu Meng into his arms, lifting his hand up and down.
Lu Meng felt happy and scared at the same time. She lowered her head and said in a voice as low as a mosquito, "It's not dark yet."
Ma Su laughed, let go of his hand, and said grandly: "Then let's wait until dark."
Lu Meng raised her head and glanced at the darkening sky outside the window, groaning secretly in her heart, frowning and thinking about how she could have a good night's rest.
But after thinking of more than a hundred excuses, I found it difficult to stop my passionate husband.
Soon, it became completely dark.
"Madam, this dress is good, let's put it on and take a look." Ma Su came over carrying a cheongsam with a high slit.
Lu Meng's face turned red after just one glance, and she said shyly: "These clothes are too revealing."
However, Ma Di looked calm, shook his head and said: "Otherwise, in the boudoir, there is no way for the husband and wife to be exposed. Come on, put it on and let me see."
While Lu Meng was getting dressed, Ma Di suddenly asked, "Madam, do you have any sweat medicine at home?"
Lu Meng carefully pinched the slits on both sides of her skirt and asked doubtfully: "What does your husband want this medicine to do?"
"I have come up with a clever plan to destroy bandits with a snap of my fingers. This plan requires a lot of Mongolian sweat medicine."
Lu Meng smiled and said, "Husband, you must have forgotten that there is a Lu Family Pharmacy in the city."
Ma Su shook his head: "The amount of medicine in the drug store is not enough, there is still some shortage."
"The husband will ask Lu Ming to go to a nearby county tomorrow for transportation." Lu Meng replied casually, carefully holding up the hem of her skirt and coming to Ma Su.
She always felt that these clothes were inappropriate, as they were leaking air underneath and making her feel cold, as if she was not wearing any clothes.
As expected, only the ancients could control the beauty of the cheongsam. Ma Su's eyes widened: "Madam, the spring night is short, let's go to bed early!"
Lu Meng lowered her head and hummed, her heart skipping a beat, knowing that what was supposed to come would eventually come.
Can't hide.
Perhaps because she was wearing a new style of cheongsam to rest, Lu Meng slept very late that night.
Early the next morning, Lu Ming received Ma Su's instructions and hurried out of the city.
Ma Su asked for a quantity that could overwhelm a thousand people, so he only needed to travel to one county.
If everything goes well, I'll be back in the afternoon.
Prefect's Mansion.
Lu Meng put on new clothes, walked out of the inner room and came to the front hall.
This is the first time she has been to the front hall in the past five days.
In the past five days, the farthest place she had been was the hut next to the inner room.
Maybe it's because of the new clothes, maybe it's because he's been moisturized to the maximum extent, but Lu Meng, who has not applied makeup, looks so dazzling and gorgeous that it's hard to look directly at her.
As soon as she arrived in the front hall, everyone immediately looked at her with side eyes and admired her.
Lu Kaian sat on the left-hand seat and said with a smile: "The third sister is beautiful and fragrant, unparalleled in the world, she is really the pearl of my Lu family, hahaha..."
Everyone laughed in agreement.
Although it was his own family that praised his own family, Lu Kai was right about one thing, the country was beautiful and fragrant.
An ordinary woman would have run away with such teasing.
But Lu Meng walked forward calmly, bowed slightly to Lu Kai, then rolled his eyes at his eldest brother and spat: "Brother is disrespectful, but he wants to practice with his sister?"
"Ah? No, no, no, Third Sister can't do it, can't do it." Lu Kai panicked when he saw this and waved his hands repeatedly.
There are three reasons why he got scared instantly.
First, this sister is very good at fighting, and she is no match for even five of them.
Secondly, if he fights Lu Meng, if he wins, he will bully the younger one, but if he loses, he will not be able to beat his younger sister. No matter how you look at it, it will be a blood loss.
Third, the younger sister is already married, and he is also a married man. The brother and sister need to keep a distance from each other. They can no longer come and go as they please like they did when they were children.
Lu Meng greeted all the guests one by one, and then she walked into the inner hall.
Lu Kai looked at Ma Su and said sternly: "Brother-in-law, you must not be careless about this important wedding. Although you and Meng'er are married, the wedding must be held. Tomorrow happens to be the eighth day of the first lunar month, so it is a good day."
When Ma Su heard this, he got what he wanted and immediately nodded and said: "It's all up to my brother's arrangement. Uh, by the way, the venue needs to be big. It's best to have thousands of tables, so that the whole city can celebrate together, so that everyone can be happy."
Lu Kai praised: "My brother-in-law is still doing things in a grand manner. According to Brother Yu's idea, setting up a table of 180 is enough."
When everyone heard this, they were all dumbfounded. There was such a grand event with thousands of tables... This was not a happy event. This was the coronation of the new king. No, the new king's coronation probably wouldn't be such a grand event.
But since the two talkers have set the tone, they can only follow it.
A dozen wealthy gentry gathered together and totaled 200 tables for you and 200 tables for me, which made up nearly 3,000 tables.
In the afternoon, Lu Ming rushed back after a long journey and handed the Mongolian sweat medicine to Ma Su. Then he stood aside and listened to Lu Kai and Ma Su discuss the details of tomorrow's wedding banquet.
The two were talking when suddenly a call came from a distance: "Fifth brother."
Ma Su didn't react for a moment, but when he looked back, he saw a handsome young man wearing white ordinary clothes, with a sword on his waist, and two elegant and weak followers walking towards him from a distance.
The person who came was none other than Yang Wanwan.
Lu Kai looked up and saw that this young man was eight feet tall, with a jade-like face and piercing eyes. He looked like a dragon or a phoenix among men.
I was immediately surprised.
Yang Baiwan cupped his fists and shouted again: "Fifth brother,"
"Sixth brother!" Ma Su understood instantly and connected seamlessly.
Seeing Lu Kai's confused look, he explained: "Brother, I don't know. There are six brothers here. I am the fifth. This is my sixth brother. We came to Yulin together and got separated on the way."
Lu Kai suddenly realized: "So that's it."
Immediately he looked back and forth again, wondering: "Since we are brothers, why don't we look like each other? Your sixth brother is so handsome... why are you so..."
The word "ordinary" rolled around in my throat a few times, and I finally swallowed it.
Ma Su laughed: "The dragon gave birth to nine sons, each of whom is different. This is my sixth brother, Ma Liu."
Hearing that new relatives were coming, Lu Meng walked out with small steps to meet them.
At the first sight, his wonderful eyes were filled with color, and he was secretly amazed at his brother-in-law's appearance, but that was all.
She is now a traditional woman who regards women's ethics as an ironclad rule and will not have any inappropriate thoughts.
Besides, she is very satisfied with her husband.
Men, why do you need to be so good-looking?
As long as you can do it.
After everyone saw the ceremony, they all went to coordinate the arrangements. Ma Liu (Yang Wanwan) was assigned to the kitchen to be responsible for the catering arrangements.
The news that the third young lady of the Lu family was planning to hold a banquet to get married quickly spread throughout Guiping City.
Many people dropped what they were doing and came to watch the fun.
In a blink of an eye, it was the second day.
Early in the morning, Lu Meng got up early and dressed up surrounded by the maids and women.
Last night, she rarely had a peaceful sleep without being tormented for too long.
Ma Su put on the groom's official attire and stood in the lobby with a mechanical smile on his face, greeting everyone who came to congratulate him.
The banquet was placed all the way from the governor's house to the street, and even forty or fifty tables were set up on the north gate tower. The soldiers on duty sat at a table of eight people and started to feast.
The two thousand reinforcements brought by Lu Kai and a group of generals were uniformly arranged in the backyard of the prefect's mansion and ate early.
At noon, when the banquet was in full swing, there were a lot of things falling down in the backyard.
Lu Kai, who was having a drink with Yang Wanwan, didn't know what was going on and wanted to rush to the backyard to take a look. He just got up and took two steps. His head felt dizzy and he didn't know who was going on.
Except for the squire and guests, all the soldiers and generals who should be released were all fainted.
Lu Meng was sitting in the inner room with a red hijab on her head. She was bored and waiting for the maid to bring food when she saw Lu Ming running in with a panic look on his face.
"Miss Third, it's not good, our soldiers have all been controlled and the city has been lost."
