After listening to Zhao Yanzhen's words, Jiang Nianjiao cooperated and said, "I heard Luo Jingcheng say about the Luo family's house in Leiyang. It seems that the house was built seven years ago, which seems to match the time. But I didn't expect that the Luo family would be so bold as to do this." situation."
Zhao Yanzhen did not speak when he heard this. He closed his eyes and rested, as if thinking about something.
The lights were brightly lit in the Luo Mansion. Mr. Luo and the second wife of the Luo family were sitting on the pear wood Taishi chair at the top.
The two brothers Luo Jingshan and Luo Jingcheng stood at the bottom with their hands folded.
"Dad, my second brother took cousin Lingwei to Yanle Lake today, and then encountered those group of savages. Fortunately, he was rescued, otherwise he might have been buried near Yanle Lake today." Luo Jingshan naturally wouldn't. The first thing he forgot to do when he got home was to sue Luo Jingcheng.
When Mr. Luo heard that Luo Jingcheng went to Yanle Lake in violation of the ban, he became very angry. "What are you going to Yanle Lake for? Aren't you afraid of death? You are going to die and you want to hurt others?"
Luo Jingcheng curled his lips and looked at his hypocritical elder brother, and then explained to his father in a low voice, "Dad, those barbarians have a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. Isn't my visit a blessing in disguise? How about we let the county magistrate How about they surround us and then move away the wealth? In fact, those barbarians are nothing to be afraid of. As long as we have more people and stronger weapons, they are no match at all."
When Luo Jingcheng said this, he thought that he could offset what he had done today and at least divert his father's attention to the wealth. However, his father's reaction was almost like his elder brother's retreat.
"You still dare to go to Yanle Lake? And you take other people with you! You don't want your life!"
After angrily reprimanding this sentence, Mr. Luo then sternly reprimanded, "Nayanle Lake is a forbidden area. I have warned you before not to steal it. If you can't go there by yourself, you have to bring others there! Do you still have this person like me in your eyes?" father."
"What a traitor. Go to the ancestral hall to think about it. You are not allowed to come out of the ancestral hall until you understand!" Mr. Luo then said sharply.
Mrs. Luo was originally distressed when she heard Mr. Luo scolding her son, but she did not dare to speak out.
However, when she heard that Mr. Luo actually planned to punish his son, Mrs. Luo couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
"Master, Cheng'er didn't go to Yanle Lake on purpose. Besides, he was injured there. How could you bear to let him kneel in the ancestral hall for another night? What if he was injured?" Luo Er The lady said with a distressed look on her face.
However, Mr. Luo reprimanded him and said, "You still said, if you hadn't spoiled this brat, would he still be able to do nothing and cause me trouble everywhere?"
Then Mr. Luo pointed at Luo Jingshan and said, "Look at Jingshan, look at your good son! Jingshan's mother left early, and no one cared about him, but he was obedient and didn't get into trouble for me. How about you?" But my good son, apart from eating, drinking and having fun every day, is always causing trouble for me! Tell me how you teach your son!"
"You still have the nerve to plead for him! I think you should stay in the courtyard and think about it carefully!"
After saying this, Mr. Luo just waved his hand and left directly.
After Mr. Luo left, Mrs. Luo couldn't help but look at Luo Jingshan hatefully, "Luo Jingshan, what do you mean?"
After being reprimanded by Mrs. Luo Er, Luo Jingshan only changed his gentle and courteous attitude. He only said coldly, "Whatever Mrs. Luo means, I mean it."
After saying that, he looked at Luo Jingcheng coldly and said, "Besides, it's considered good that I saved your precious son's life at this moment."
"Er Niang, if you continue to oppose me, I will naturally accompany you to the end! Then we will see who can't afford it."
After saying this, Luo Jingshan just looked at the mother and son as if they were looking at garbage, and then left directly.
In an instant, only Luo Jingcheng and Mrs. Luo were left in the main hall.
Luo Jingcheng said with a mournful face, "Mom, I don't want to kneel in the ancestral hall."
"Besides, didn't you ask me to accompany cousin Lingwei? It was cousin Lingwei who wanted to go to Yanle Lake. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to go to a place where birds don't poop."
However, after hearing this, Mrs. Luo Er just said bitterly, "You won't take her anywhere else."
"Cousin Lingwei will definitely go somewhere else.
She refused to go with me. After all, my eldest brother had been entertaining her here all along, and she had already been to almost all the places she should go. Except Yanle Lake. "
Hearing Luo Jingcheng mention Luo Jingshan again, Mrs. Luo felt a burst of resentment in her heart.
"How dare you mention Yanle Lake! Just like your father said, your eldest brother has no one to teach him, so he can do everything decently. But now I invite famous teachers to you every day, how can your studies fail? Nothing happened?"
Hearing that his mother also started to criticize him, Luo Jingcheng suddenly felt aggrieved, "Can you blame me? My eldest brother and his mother are from a scholarly family, and their mothers are all smart people. Look at you again, aren't you just a maid?" , people say that everyone has his own destiny, and the same is true for talents."
Hearing what Luo Jingcheng said, Mrs. Luo almost fainted from anger.
"What do you mean? Are you blaming me? You don't study hard and hang out with that group of people all day long, and you still have the nerve to blame me!" Mrs. Luo scolded angrily.
Then she just said, "It seems your father is right. I shouldn't feel sorry for you. I just love you so much! You should go to the ancestral hall and reflect!"
After saying this, Mrs. Luo Er left angrily.
The only person left in the room was Luo Jingcheng, who looked like the big enemy.
On the other side, the servant in the inner hall did not forget to add fuel to the fire and said, "Master Jingcheng, it's time for us to go to the ancestral hall now. Do you want the servants to help you there, or do you want to walk there by yourself?"
Hearing the servant in the inner hall asking such questions, Luo Jingcheng immediately said angrily, "I can go there by myself! I don't need your help."
Hearing Luo Jingcheng's words, the others only said yes, and then a group of people followed Luo Jingcheng and left. .
On the other side, after Luo Jingshan sent Luo Jingcheng to the ancestral hall, he went to the courtyard where Cui Lingwei and Lady Cui lived.
At this time, Cui Lingwei was applying medicine to Du Zechi in the inner room.
Therefore, when Luo Jingshan knocked on the door, Cui Lingwei did not hear it. In the end, Lady Cui opened the door. When she opened the door and saw Luo Jingshan, Lady Cui seemed a little surprised, but then she said, "Master, , why are you here?"
When Luo Jingshan heard this, he only said softly, "Madam, I came here to see cousin Lingwei. Is she okay?"
Ms. Cui was just stunned when she heard this, and then she whispered, "Thank you Mr. Luo for your concern. Lingwei is fine."
Hearing this, Luo Jingshan only said, "As long as cousin Lingwei is fine, this is the medicine I prepared for cousin Lingwei."
While speaking, Luo Jingshan only took out a box of wound medicine from his arms, and then he whispered, "Cousin Lingwei, if you have some skin injuries, you can just use this plaster, and the injury can be treated."
After hearing Luo Jingshan's instructions, Mrs. Cui could only smile and say, "Thank you Mr. Luo for your concern. I will give the medicine to Lingwei."
Having said that, Ms. Cui seemed to want to signal Luo Jingshan to leave. Unexpectedly, Cui Lingwei happened to come out at this moment. When Luo Jingshan saw Cui Lingwei coming out, he also wanted to say hello to Cui Lingwei.
However, before he could say anything, he saw someone seemed to be following Cui Lingwei.
When Cui Lingwei saw him following him, she couldn't help but whisper, "Why are you following me? Didn't I tell you to wait for me in the house?"
As soon as he heard Cui Lingwei's words, Du Zechi pretended to be innocent.
"But I'm afraid you won't come back once you leave."
Hearing Du Zechi's words, Cui Lingwei couldn't help but smile and touched Du Zechi's head and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just going to get you some water and clean your wound."
After saying this, Cui Lingwei then said, "And don't move around anymore. I won't care about you if you move around."
Hearing Cui Lingwei's words, Du Zechi naturally stopped moving. Luo Jingshan, who was at the door on the other side, naturally saw all the interactions between Cui Lingwei and Du Zechi.
A moment of loneliness flashed across his eyes.
Madam Cui felt a little embarrassed at the moment, so she then said, "Zechi accidentally fell into a trap in order to protect Lingwei today, so Lingwei is helping him treat his wounds."
Hearing this, Luo Jingshan only pretended to be relieved and said, "So that's the case, then this plaster
If Mr. Du can use it, let him use it. "
Hearing Luo Jingshan's words, Mrs. Cui didn't respond yet. Cui Lingwei, who was about to go get the water, couldn't help but ask, "Sister-in-law, who are you talking to?"
When Lady Cui saw Lingwei asking who the other party was, she just took the initiative and said, "It's Luo Jingshan, Mr. Luo."
After saying this, Mrs. Cui deliberately turned aside to let Luo Jingshan's figure appear in front of Cui Lingwei.
Luo Jingshan glanced at Cui Lingwei lightly, then smiled slightly, "Cousin Lingwei."
Cui Lingwei said without any grudge, "Cousin Jingshan, why are you here?"
"You suffered a lot over there, and I was thinking that you must have been injured to some extent, so I wanted to send you a box of wound medicine. This medicine has a miraculous effect on stopping bleeding and other external injuries."
After hearing what Luo Jingshan said, Cui Lingwei immediately said, "Thank you, cousin Jingshan."
Then she just raised the ointment in her hand and whispered, "But I was not injured. Mr. Du protected me by Yanle Lake."
After saying this, she just smiled shyly and said, "On the contrary, Mr. Du suffered a lot of injuries while exploring the road. His calf was also caught by a machine trap. His leg was seriously injured. If cousin Jingshan doesn't mind, , can I give this box of plaster to Mr. Du?"
Hearing Cui Lingwei's inquiry, Luo Jingshan only whispered, "Since the plaster was given to cousin Lingwei, the things will naturally be disposed of by cousin Lingwei. Cousin Lingwei can give it to whoever she wants, so there is no need to ask again." And me?"
