The short-lived ghost of the Xie family has lived a long life

Chapter 386
No matter how Lu Shi remained the same as before, the news that he became Tang Qiling's student still spread to the backyard.

The attitude of the scholars towards him changed overnight.

They enthusiastically called him Brother Lu;
Knock on the door in the middle of the night and ask him questions humbly;
Invite him to visit the garden, drink wine, make tea, and talk about Taoism;

Lu Shi knew what these people were thinking, but he didn't respond. He even came out of his husband's study and went directly to the stable to read.

Although the beast smells bad, his heart is clean and he is willing to stay with the beast.

In fact, my husband asked him to live in the front yard several times, but he politely declined.

There was only one girl in the Tang Mansion. Her mother was gone, and it would not be easy to get married in the future. He couldn't let anyone gossip about her.

It happened one morning three months later.

One of the scholars claimed that he had lost five taels of silver, suspected that it had been stolen, and asked to search someone else's room.

Lu Shi did not do anything wrong. He was not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door and let them copy it openly.

Unexpectedly, the money actually appeared in his baggage.

There is no denying it.

The scholar was extremely angry and shouted that Lu Shi should be sent to the official. He immediately called the boy in the backyard to inform Mr. Tang.

Mr. Tang didn't come, but a girl came.

The girl asked Lin Bi to move a chair for her, sat down comfortably, and then looked at the sufferer coldly, "What's your name?"

"Miss, my name is Li Xing."

"You said he stole your money, do you have any evidence?"

"The money was found in his baggage."

"How do you know that the money in his bag belongs to you?"

"Miss, this man is so poor, how can he save five taels of silver? If he didn't steal it, where else could it come from?"

"What if someone else gave it to you?"

Li Xing looked aggrieved, "Miss, aren't you just protecting him when you say this?"

The girl raised her eyebrows and said softly: "I'm protecting my senior brother, what's wrong?"

When she said this, Lu Shi had been entangled with these people for a long time, and was on the verge of rage, and the fists in his sleeves were about to be punched out at the next moment.

His mouth won't defend itself, but his fists will.

The girl's words made his fist soften. This was the first time in his long life that he heard someone want to protect him.

Still so small, so tiny.

"If my senior brother is willing to accept it, there will be more than five taels in the baggage. But you, a poor scholar, live in my Tang family and eat in the Tang family. Where can you get five taels of silver?"

Li Xing was anxious, "Miss, you can't say that, this year I..."

"Shh!"

The girl stretched out a finger and raised it to her lips, "Let me guess, could it be that you guys collected these five taels of silver and wanted to frame my senior brother?"

"Miss, it's nothing."

"Miss, you have been wronged."

"Miss, how dare I!"

"Miss, I am not such a person."

The girl smiled softly.

The spring sun shone on her body, and her black eyes were cold and proud, as if everything in front of her could not enter her eyes.

"I give you one chance, only one chance. Whoever tells the truth about the matter, I will let him continue to stay in this backyard, otherwise..."

Lin Bi took a step forward and said coldly: "My young lady has already reported to the government. The government is on her way. If we really want to find out something, please think about the consequences!"

In the backyard, there was deathly silence for a moment.

Someone jumped out and said, "Miss, it was Li Xing's idea. He said he wanted to teach Lu Shi a lesson."

"it's him."

"Miss, Li Xing came to the Tang family earlier than us, so we all listen to him."

"Miss, please don't let the government arrest us."

The girl looked up at Li Xing, who looked defeated, and shook her head.

"How can a grown man be so small-minded? Even if he is jealous of my senior brother, he actually wants to frame him. Tsk, tsk, tsk, the book has been read into the dog's belly."

Li Xing's face turned red. After a while, he knelt down and slapped himself twice.

"Miss, I was wrong. I was distracted for a moment. You, sir, have a lot. Please give me another chance."

"Brother."

She winked at him and said, "Give it?"

Lu Shi didn't expect that things suddenly changed, and he didn't react for a while. "My senior brother said he wouldn't give it."

She snorted, "Come here, please Li Xing leave my Tang Mansion."

"Miss, Miss..."

"Before framing my senior brother, you should have thought through the consequences. Again, don't blame me for ruining your future. I'll treat you to jail."

How dare Li Xing say even half a word more.

"Linbi?"

"Miss."

"This place is very dirty. It's unbearable to live in. Please help my senior brother pack his things and take them to the front yard."

"Yes!"

The girl walked to Lu Shi's side and stretched out her hand to tug at the corner of Lu Shi's clothes.

"Senior brother, what to do with the remaining people? Just give me a word and I will listen to you."

Lu Shi said in a daze: "...Forget it."

"Did you hear that, my senior brother said forget it, remember his kindness, otherwise, you will have to be like Li Xing."

The girl tugged on his sleeve: "Brother, let's go."

She held her head up, with a smile on her face. Lu Shi moved his lips, but didn't say anything, and just followed her honestly.

He has been a bastard since he was a child. No one wants to say a word to him, and he has nothing to say to others. He would rather hide behind his own door and live aloofly.

With this tug, she seemed to drag him out from behind the door.

The quiet bluestone road, the bamboo forest rustling in the wind, and this little, smart girl in front of me.

The world in Lu Shi's eyes seemed to have become different.

It seems to have a bit of flavor.

The taste is sweet.

……

Lu Shi stayed in the front yard of Tang's house. It was a very remote yard, just on the edge of the back garden, some distance away from the inner house.

He still raises horses for the Tang family and does not want Yueyin.

The beast Naoren'er was raised by him to be strong, and the hair on his body was smoother than other horses.

Tang Qiling went to the Prince's Mansion early in the morning and would come back from the Prince's Mansion in the evening. Of the three meals a day, the only time he could sit down and eat with his daughter was in the evening.

Although Lu Shi raised horses, he was still Tang Qiling's student, not a servant, so he had to be at the dinner table in the evening.

Lu Shi ate very quickly, finishing the food in three or two bites, and didn't eat much.

After eating, I stood outside the study door, waiting for Mr. and the others to come.

Three days later, someone flipped out.

The man slapped his chopsticks on the table and complained to Mr. Tang with tears in his eyes.

"Dad, he ate so fast that I couldn't help but eat faster. You see, I choked and felt uncomfortable."

Lin Bi hurriedly gave her a favor.

The back of a 13-year-old girl is as thin as a piece of paper at that age. It seems that it can be broken by the wind.

"Mountain rocks."

The husband glared at him and said, "Eat more slowly from now on, eat more food, and wait for her."

He looked at her pale face and nodded, "Okay."

A few days later, she just took a sip of soup and suddenly vomited.

This time, Lin Bi glared at him, then picked up a few pieces of clothes from nowhere and threw them into his arms.

"Mr. Lu, let's change it. At least don't smoke the young lady."

Do I smell?

impossible!

When he came out of the stable, he had washed himself inside and out with water from the well in the courtyard.

"vomit--"

She threw up again.

Lu Shi quickly got up and went to change clothes behind the screen. Suddenly he felt something was wrong and turned his head sharply, just in time to see her winking at the forest wall with a smile.

The smile was a little proud and cunning. Lu Shi's pupils shrank and he felt his heart falling into hot water.

It's warm!
