Chapter 17 Brother Chapter 17 Surprise
After leaving the Fu Mansion, Aunt Lu and Uncle Lu reluctantly looked back at the huge mansion.
Third Aunt Lu complained as she walked: "What kind of lucky star can bring good luck to the Lu family? Now we have all been kicked out and we don't know where to go. If we are really lucky, we can find a place to live."
Grandma Lu glared at her, "You're the only one who has a mouth and can speak?"
Aunt Lu shrank her neck and muttered in a low voice: "I am also telling the truth."
At this time, a gorgeous carriage suddenly stopped in front of them, and the curtain was opened.
Mr. Jiang got off the carriage, looked at everyone and wondered, "Where are you going at this late hour? Aren't you here to seek refuge with your relatives? Could it be that you haven't found a place yet?"
Everyone in the Lu family looked at each other and didn't know what to say. They were somewhat speechless after being kicked out.
"We want to find a place to live by ourselves. Living in other people's homes will never last long. Does Mr. Jiang have any recommendations?" Shen Lanze stood up to break the awkward scene.
The Lu family doesn't know anyone else here. It's not easy to find a place to live in the huge capital. What's more, they have so many people that they can't afford the money if they live in an inn.
Mr. Jiang thought for a moment and suddenly thought of a place to place them.
"There is a place, but it's a little more remote outside the capital."
"It doesn't matter, it's good to have a place for us to stay." Upon hearing this, Grandma Lu's eyes immediately flashed with light.
"In the southern suburbs of the capital, there is an unoccupied house that is unoccupied. The yard is quite large, enough for your family to live there."
Mr. Jiang also considered that there were too many Lu family members, so there was only one place that could be bigger.
"Can you trouble Mr. Jiang to send us there?" Grandma Lu doesn't have so many requirements now. It's good to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
Mr. Jiang originally planned to let a few people stay in his house for a night, but Grandma Lu bluntly declined his offer because she did not want to be treated as a refugee anymore.
In desperation, Mr. Jiang had no choice but to take everyone from the Lu family to the courtyard in the eastern suburbs.
This place is located in the south of the capital, surrounded by barren mountains and ridges. Except for a group of outsiders like them, no one else would come to this kind of place.
There are many yards here, including many idle houses. There is a thick locust tree with hanging branches in the yard, and there is a stone table under the tree.
There is a piece of land in front of the yard, the small kitchen is in the southeast corner, and there are two larger houses in the backyard. This place is much larger than where they lived before.
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang." Grandma Lu breathed a sigh of relief, finally not living on the street.
Master Jiang bid farewell to everyone and hurried back to the city.
Lu Nanzhi thinks this place is quite good, and she likes it here better than the mansion in the capital.
"Grandma, let's just clean up the room first and move in. Let's clean it up tomorrow and everyone can have a good rest." Lu Nazhi suggested.
"Okay, listen to Nanzhi, I will say that Nanzhi is a blessed child, and the Lu family will depend on you from now on." Grandma Lu took Lu Nanzhi's hand and said kindly.
If it weren't for Nanzhi's good fortune, they might not even have a place to live tonight.
Aunt Lu curled her lips and looked very dissatisfied at the dilapidated yard in front of her. "What a blessing. What's so good about this dilapidated place? It's no different from the one we lived in before."
"You can leave if you don't like living here. No one is forcing you to stay here." Grandma Lu's tone became serious, and her face became frighteningly gloomy.
Aunt Lu shrank her head and said nothing.
Everyone will tidy up the rooms and start allocating houses.
Grandma Lu originally planned to leave one of the big houses for the Lu family to live in as a second room. The second room paid the most along the way, otherwise they would not have reached the capital so quickly.
How could Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu agree to live in that small house? Why should they be given a second room in the big house?
"Mom, you are too partial. Normally you prefer the second bedroom, and treat Nanzhi better than Qinghe. We won't say anything about this. We finally have a big house and let them live in it, right?
Is there something wrong?" Uncle Lu said in a dissatisfied tone.
"Mom, you are the elder and it is natural for you to live in a big house, but this second bedroom..." Aunt Lu didn't say what she said later, but her meaning was obvious. They would definitely not agree if the second bedroom lived in a big house.
Lu Nanzhi sneered, no wonder Lu Qinghe was so vicious at a young age. This has a lot to do with his parents. How can parents raise a good daughter if they are both selfish people.
"Grandma, I'd rather let my uncle's family live in this big house. As the saying goes, the old and the young are in order." Lu Nanzhi had a slight smile on his lips.
Lu Nazhi's attitude made Third Aunt Lu and Third Uncle Lu look embarrassed. Grandma Lu felt that Lu Nazhi was very knowledgeable, so she said, "You have no objection this time?"
Aunt Lu and Uncle Lu stopped talking and turned to choose a room. Since they couldn't choose a big house, they had to choose a house they liked.
Lu Qinghe looked at the people entering the room with a cold smile on his lips.
"Lu Nanzhi, I hope you will like the gift I gave you!"
Lu Nanzhi was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. She recalled that when the room was divided, Lu Qinghe stared at her room with bright eyes, but in the end he did not choose to argue with her.
This made her feel a little strange. She always felt that something was wrong. This was not in line with Lu Qinghe's character. What was wrong, or had she changed her gender?
Lu Nazhi's thoughts drifted further and further, and he soon fell asleep.
In the dark room, something seemed to crawl out from the corner, twisting its body and crawling towards the wooden bed.
The moon ran out from behind the clouds, and its silver light poured down, illuminating the ground, clearly exposing the things crawling on the ground.
It turned out to be two red snakes. They were all red and spit out snakes.
Lu Nanzhi turned over and suddenly woke up from her sleep. Her eyes happened to meet the two snakes on the ground. She was so frightened that she quickly reached out to cover her mouth.
My heart was beating fast, my little head was racing, trying to calm myself down.
At this time, a figure flashed outside the door, knocked on the door and whispered: "Nanzhi, are you asleep?"
This sound did not stop the two snakes from moving forward. Lu Nazhi did not dare to make a sound and slowly got up from the bed, moved his body back into the bed little by little, and then slowly stood up.
She jumped down and quickly opened the door.
Shen Lanze was about to leave, but the door in front of him suddenly opened.
Lu Nanzhi stood there in obscene clothes, with fear and panic flashing in his smart eyes.
"Snake, there is a snake in the room!"
Shen Lanze hurriedly pulled her and looked her up and down, "Have you been bitten?"
Lu Nazhi shook his head. He still hadn't recovered yet, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
She is most afraid of this kind of soft snake, which makes her whole body get goosebumps just by looking at it.
After making sure that she was not injured, Shen Lanze quickly lowered his head, with a blush on his fair face, and took off his coat and put it on her body.
Shen Lanze walked into the room, grabbed the two snakes on the bed and killed them.
Lu Nanzhi looked at the room opposite, then at the two snakes in Shen Lanze's hands, with a sneer on his lips.
