Dressed as a vicious stepmother, the whole family is full of wealth

Chapter 268, good way
Xiao Qing's right eyelid twitched all day yesterday, and after waking up this morning, he felt much better.

Zhou Chuan was downstairs waiting for her to have breakfast. Yesterday they went to several kiln kilns outside the capital to inquire about the price and amount of charcoal, but none of them could be removed. This matter needs her to think carefully before deciding Take the decision.

Daqing is currently in drought, and many farmlands have no harvest. On the other hand, Shangjing has not been affected at all. I have to say that Shangjing is really prosperous, and there are hawking outside early in the morning.

When Xiao Qing went downstairs, Ah Luan, who had been sick for more than a day, finally got up.

She came to the two of them, looked at Ah Luan and asked with concern: "What's the matter, do you feel comfortable today?"

Ah Luan wiped his nose, glanced at her and said, "Thank you for your concern, shopkeeper, it's much better."

Xiao Qing pursed her lips and smiled: "Your illness is more or less because of me, you can tell shopkeeper Jiang what you want to eat, and it will all be on my account!"

Ah Luan laughed: "Well, don't worry, I won't save money for the shopkeeper!"

Xiao Qing sat down next to Zhou Chuan, and asked carefully: "Master Zhou, why don't you and A Luan go back to Yaoshan first, and I will go to Bianshan outside the city today to have a look, I heard that the charcoal burned there is not bad!"

Zhou Chuan said: "Shopkeeper Xiao, let's come together, of course we have to go back together, today I will accompany you to see a few houses, some are in a recession, let's raise the price again, maybe they will be able to sell. "

Every year after November in Shangjing, various prefectures began to raise money to buy charcoal. The small earthen kilns in Shangjing were no more than a few large earthen kilns, and they were almost on the verge of bankruptcy. Buy the charcoal fire at the place, and eat up the market in Shangjing.

The shopkeepers of the earthen kilns in the few companies that are running now call the money very high. Xiao Qing wants to look at a few more companies, estimate how much they are, and then make a move.

"Okay, then there will be the shopkeeper Lao Zhou." Xiao Qing said.

Zhou Chuan smiled, "You're welcome!"

Ah Luan's eyes rolled on the two of them, he looked at Zhou Chuan smiling, the two had a close relationship, grinned and said, "Shopkeeper, Shopkeeper Zhou accompanied you all over the world these days, how do you repay him?"

Xiao Qing thought for a while, indeed, Zhou Chuan is a very nice person, and he didn't have a single complaint when he was with her these days, so he should repay him well.

"After the kiln charcoal business is confirmed, is there any place shopkeeper Zhou wants to go in Shangjing? Then I will go with you. Let's have a good time?"

Zhou Chuan thought for a while, and said with a smile: "No need, shopkeeper Xiao, when your business is settled, we'll talk about it when we go back to Yaoshan. It's not safe to play in Shangjing. No matter where we go, I always feel that there are eyes following me. , staring at me is very uncomfortable."

Ah Luan listened: "Is there anyone else following you?"

"Yes, there are more than one group of people. No matter where shopkeeper Xiao and I go, those few people will follow. They don't care if we see it or not. In short, they are staring at you blatantly!" Zhou Chuan said helplessly. road.

Ah Luan ate the pancakes and sneered: "It seems that they don't give up, they will only give up if the shopkeeper pays something!"

Xiao Qing said: "Don't worry about them, we do our business, there is no need to pay attention to them, if they want to follow, follow them!"

Zhou Chuan hummed, thinking it was so reasonable, but he couldn't stop it, and they didn't hurt them, so if he paid more attention to it, he was troubled.

But Ah Luan didn't think so. To cut the weeds, you have to get rid of the roots, so why don't you leave a tail for yourself?
Xingguo Gongfu.

After Xingguo Duke Lu Kuang came down to the court, he heard that his daughter had returned from Yaoshan, and he couldn't stop being happy for a moment. Before the court clothes were returned, he was going to see her.

I haven't seen her for more than ten days, and I miss him very much. He has long wanted someone to bring Ruxian back. His family, Ru'er, has lived in someone's house before he even passed the house. How ugly it is to spread the word.

Lu Kuang walked quickly to the main room.

"Ma'am, I heard that Ruxian is back?" Lu Kuang said loudly with a smile as soon as he stepped into the room.

Mrs. Xingguo's wife Yu Ningying heard the sound, urged Lu Ruxian, and whispered: "Okay, put away your tears, your father is here, I will tell your father later."

When Lu Kuang walked to the couch, seeing Lu Ruxian talking to his wife, he smiled and walked over to sit beside them.

"Daughter pays respects to father!"

"Okay, okay, there is no one else in your mother's house, so you don't need to be polite!" Said Lu Kuang pulled his daughter up and looked at him carefully: "Quickly show my father, has my Ruer lost weight in the past few days away from my parents?" .”

Lu Kuang looked left and right, and was overjoyed: "You've lost weight, you've lost weight, did Ru'er miss your parents in Yaoshan, and didn't eat well?"

Lu Ruxian lowered her head and nodded silently: "Well, my daughter is missing her parents."

Lu Kuang pulled Lu Ruxian, and said distressedly: "My parents miss you too..."

Just when he was about to spend some time with his daughter, the woman outside the door came in to report: "My lord, the boy outside came to report, saying that the peasant woman from Yaoshan went to Bianshan, and asked if I should continue to follow?"

When Lu Ruxian heard about the Yaoshan peasant woman, she thought that that lowly maid had occupied Chi Yan's heart, causing Chi Yan to send her back to Shangjing. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but want to ask her father who this Yaoshan peasant woman was.

"Follow, why don't you follow?" Lu Kuang ordered loudly, "Send someone to continue to follow and see what she wants to do?"

"Yes!" The mother-in-law backed out.

After the mother-in-law left, Lu Ruxian asked, "Father, what Yaoshan peasant woman?"

Lu Kuang then simply told Lu Ruxian what had happened in the past few days when Xiao Qing came to Beijing, and when Lu Ruxian heard it, she was overjoyed.So many things happened?
"Father, this Yaoshan peasant woman is indeed too annoying, she should be taught a lesson!" Lu Ruxian said.

Dare to continue Zhang Lao's momentum, let them Xingguo Gongfu and He Taishi's family lose face, she is still the first one, a little peasant woman who has not restrained herself when she came to Beijing.

Lu Kuang sighed: "Yeah, these two days I'll let people keep an eye on her, to see what she wants to do!"

Lu Ruxian pursed her lips and asked with a smile, "Father, how difficult is it for this kind of person to teach her a lesson?"

When Lu Kuang heard that his clever daughter had a solution, he asked with a smile, "What can Ru'er do?"

Lu Ruxian whispered to Lu Kuang's ear and talked for a while, then she stood up and said, "This matter, people from Yaoshan and the Hou's Mansion suppressed it, and no one said anything, Dad, Mr. Zhang is so I value her, this time she lost face to Mr. Zhang, no matter how amazing her talent is, I don't believe that Mr. Zhang will still protect her!"

Lu Kuang laughed a few times, and finally asked: "Ru'er, is what you said true? You know, we thought of many ways to make her look ugly at the banquet, but I couldn't stay any longer after being scolded by her." , Dad can’t mess around, there can’t be fakes!”

Lu Ruxian raised her hand and swore: "Father, if you don't believe this, you can ask your aunt, that lowly daughter of the Xiao family seduced the eldest son of the Hou family, and was kicked out of the Hou residence by the elder son. Everyone in the Hou family knows about it." .”
