Chapter 002 The big girl in the ancestor's room

Lu Zheng was hungry, so where could he have the heart to see the night view of Yangzhou? He just wanted to come out to steal food and eat tooth sacrifices. He lived in the Zhang Mansion, and the kitchen served food for low-ranking people. Where could he eat?

But it is not a long-term solution to go out to the restaurant. After Lu Zheng came to Yangzhou, the monthly money from the Lu family had long been cut off, and the Zhang family could not pay the monthly money on Lu Zheng's head. Lu Zheng's food, clothing and expenses now depended on the ten taels of private money given to Qi Biao by Aunt Qi. Lu Zheng ate two taels of silver in one meal, and felt so distressed that Qi Biao seemed to have been pulled out of his liver.

However, Qi Biao saw that Lu Zheng's illness was very good today. Not only that, compared to before, Lu Zheng had an indescribable smell on his body. Judging from his appearance, although he was young and had not lost his childishness, he felt as if he was the master of the superior. After a serious illness, his body was cured and his mind seemed to be open. Qi Biao was really happy and let Lu Zheng indulge him for a while.

He himself drank two taels of roasted knives under the instigation of Lu Zheng. While he was relieved to drink, he became even more worried: "The third young master can't live this life. Grandma doesn't kiss her and uncle doesn't care about her. He said that she was a young master and a son, and she was not as good as those favored families who gave birth to children.

After traveling thousands of miles to Yangzhou, Mrs. Yue gave only ten taels of private money. Just this little money is not enough for the third young master to enter the school, let alone add a few more body clothes, plus the usual food and clothing. The Lu family in Jiangning is a first-class wealthy family, and the Zhang family will definitely not allow it. The third young master really loses the face of the Lu family, and when he returns to Mrs. Jiangning, he will pick up the thorns again."

Qi Biao looked sad and sighed. Lu Zheng patted his shoulder and said, "Uncle, what are you doing with your head hanging down? You know, "You are drunk today. Come on, let's go another one?"

"Oh, my master! You can't drink anymore. Your body is not yet ready. If you drink alcohol and damage your body, you will have to let Mrs. Yue take off my skin." Qi Biao said hurriedly, not letting Lu Zheng drink again.

So the master and servant settled the bill and returned to the Zhang Mansion with a little drunkenness. The main gate of the Zhang Mansion had three main gates, with red paint as the base, which was very grand. The gate was closed at night, leaving only the side corner gates in and out. The Xijiao Courtyard where Lu Zheng lives was located is near the Xijiao Gate. There are few people in this area, especially at night, which is very quiet.

Lu Zheng stepped into Xijiaomen and suddenly turned around and said to Qi Biao, "Uncle, I want me to tell you that the Zhang family is full of tofu, vegetables, brown rice, bran, and living in broken walls and houses. How could this be the richest man's family? If it were placed in our Jiangning, this would be the third-class and fourth-class family. It's ridiculous that the brothers and sisters in the family believe in the 'the world is bright moonlit night, and two-part scoundrels are in Yangzhou', and I thought I was here in Yangzhou to enjoy my happiness!"

Qi Biao burned the knife today and his feet were floating, and his drunkenness was hazy. When he heard Lu Zheng's words, he felt feeling in his heart. He was already very tired of the Zhang family, so he immediately said:

"What the third young master said is, Yangzhou Prefecture is comparable to our Jiangning? Jiangning is at the foot of the emperor, Zhili Central, Yangzhou is not worth mentioning. I have been in Yangzhou for more than a month, so I only have a meal today. I usually eat in our Jiangning Lu Mansion, and it is all about pig food for pigs..."

"Haha!" Lu Zheng laughed and said, "Uncle's words are so sarcastic. Could it be that he is eager to go home? OK, I will write a book to my family when I go back. The wives and grandmothers at home will see that we are suffering here, so they will be recruited to go back tomorrow. If we are beaten to death, we will not come to Yangzhou again. Not only will we not come, but the brothers and sisters at home will not come. My uncle said, right?"

Qi Biao burped. Although he was a little drunk, he was not confused. When he heard that Lu Zheng's words were wrong, he couldn't help but be stunned.

His lips were tilted and he said, "Third Master, that's hard..."

When he said the word "difficult", he felt a faint fragrance at the end of his nose, and he felt someone shaking in front of him. When he looked up, he saw how many girls stood in front of him at some point.

The two little girls were about eleven or twelve years old, and one of them had a lamp in his hand. The big girl in the middle was so grand. She had a melon-shaped face, a red silk jacket, a green satin vest, and a white silk skirt with a thin pleated starry eyes, a slightly slight cheek, a red cheek, and an almond eyebrow, which was a cold air.

"Oh!" Qi Biao was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. Seeing that the big girl's outfit was different from ordinary. She was the style of a first-class big girl in the Zhang family. She must be the one who served the Zhang family's wife or the young master in the room. He stammered for a moment and said quickly: "Miss is polite!"

"What a slave, I sneaked out to steal wine in the middle of the night, and encouraged my master to gossip and make trouble. I will tell my second grandma, let her not peel you off! Who is in charge of the West Courtyard now? Let the Liang Shi family seal this Xijiao Gate tomorrow, and you, a slave, can still make trouble?" The girl shouted, looking at her appearance, very arrogant.

On the surface, she was scolding Qi Biao, but her eyes were staring at Lu Zheng. She opened her mouth with a stern and fierce look, and she was not the one who could be together.

Qi Biao was scolded and sweated in cold sweat. He had already woken up from the wine and did not dare to speak back at all. However, Lu Zheng smiled faintly and said:

"Miss not revealing her identity, but I still know you. It's chilly spring, the girl comes to this remote place regardless of the cold moss and dew of the dew of flowers, just to punish the servants who steal wine? Didn't it be that the banana leaves in the West Garden are withered and the smell of bird poop is strong, and I thought that this place was rarely visited. I never thought that my master and servant lived here. If we were just in a hindrance, it would not be a great thing. If our master and servant ruined some good things, it would be a great sin.

I'm going to report to my second grandma tomorrow. I have to call my second sister-in-law, do you think this second sister-in-law really want to tease my brother-in-law?"

"ah……"

As soon as Lu Zheng said this, the girl was stunned, and then her face turned red and her whole body was trembling with anger.

Her name is Ying'er. She is the eldest girl in the room of the old lady of the Zhang family. Today, Brother Hao of the second house was sick, had a severe fever, and was talking nonsense. The old lady was so anxious that the yard was in chaos. Ying'er walked from Xijiaomen and sent Doctor Liu from Yipintang to bring medicine to Brother Hao to decoct.

Unexpectedly, at this Xijiaomen, she actually heard Lu Zheng and Qi Biao’s master and servant speak out loud, saying that the Zhang family eats pig food and lives in a leaky house. She also said that Yangzhou is much worse than Jiangning, how can she continue to listen?

She stood up and wanted to teach Lu Zheng a lesson, but she didn't expect Lu Zheng to turn the tables and never mention what she said. Instead, she said that she had a unique purpose in coming to this remote place tonight. There were many things about wealthy families and maids meeting lovers at night. As the richest family in Yangzhou, similar incidents at home must not be new.

But this is a scandal after all. If anyone is told about this, how can he stay on the side? Ying'er was furious:

"You...you...you...nonsense, you...you..."

"What did I say? Why are you talking nonsense? You girl, you made it clear today. Which sentence I just said was nonsense? If you might be clear, tomorrow you will go to your second sister-in-law to say it. Will it be successful?" Lu Zheng said.

Ying'er was even more confused. She carefully savored Lu Zheng's words just now. This was specious and insincere. Lu Zheng's meaning was indeed that way, but when she carefully quipped the words, she found that Lu Zheng really didn't say anything.

Ying'er, a big girl, can't even explain Lu Zheng's words in that way. Wouldn't that throw dirty water on her body and rub shit on her body?

"Okay, look at you being stupid, I don't have to delve into your troubles. Just tell me what your name is? What happened when you enter and exit Xijiaomen at night?" Lu Zheng said.

"I... my name is Ying'er. Today, Brother Hao is sick. The old lady sent me to Yipintang to bring medicine..." Ying'er blushed and explained clearly about her entry and exit of Xijiao Gate. Judging from her appearance, she didn't have the arrogant arrogance just now. After explaining it clearly, she was afraid that Lu Zheng would not believe it. She added: "Yipintang is on West Street. You will be there after two turns from Xijiao Gate. If you don't believe it, you can take a walk!"

Lu Zheng waved his hand and said, "I won't leave. Since you are going to get medicine, is that something that can be delayed? Brother Hao is the flesh in the hearts of the old ladies and wives. If he had a few shortcomings, then turn around, if you knew that you had been delaying me for so long, I'm afraid you would have to peel off your skin, right?"

"Go, go! It's so cool, don't miss it!"

Lu Zheng waved at Ying'er, and then said to Qi Biao: "Uncle, we're back home too. Today I finally got full of wine and food. It's the bed. As long as it doesn't rain, it will leak on the rainy night, you should be able to have a good sleep!"

Lu Zheng led Qi Biao into the West Corner Courtyard with a swagger, and Ying'er was still confused.

After a while, she came to her senses, but the two little girls holding the lamp were laughing. Ying'er glared at all and said, "Two little hooves, why are you laughing?"

"Sister Ying'er, are you impressed by the style of this young master of the Lu family? Why is it useless to be used on weekdays? If the sisters in the house know this, they will be laughing!"

"Who dares to gossip, I cut off my tongue!" Ying'er said angrily, and then she changed to a bitter face and said, "My two good sisters, you can't talk nonsense about this. It's a trivial matter to ruin my name. But you have heard what the young master of the Lu family said and passed it to the master and the wife's ears. That would be a piercing the sky. You don't think so?"

The two little girls were only eleven or twelve years old and were not very experienced. After hearing Ying'er's solemn statement, she didn't dare to do it again, so she hurriedly pointed out.

After dealing with the two little girls, Ying'er returned to the old lady's residence all the way, and couldn't help but jumped into a secret call.
