The next day.
Zhao Hu mysteriously pulled Lu Changsheng into the city and walked towards the Red Clothes Square of Xiaoshi.
Hongyifang is a famous perfume shop in Fucheng.
He was quite popular among the women from that wealthy family.
"Is Uncle Zhao taking me to visit a wealthy family?" Lu Changsheng asked curiously when he saw him asking about a famous rouge that cost 100 coppers.
"Hey, you'll know when you get there! You don't need to say much then, just stand aside and watch! Those people have a lot of rules, and it's not appropriate for you at your age to talk too much!"
Zhao Hu warned, full of confidence.
Just as he was about to wrap up the 'Pretty Lady' with rouge, Lu Changsheng said: "Is the person Uncle Zhao is going to visit the young lady who has not yet left the court, or the woman who has already left the court?"
"Of course he left the cabinet!"
"Then I'm afraid you didn't prepare the gift properly!"
Zhao Hu frowned. If anyone else had said that to him, he would definitely have stared back, but Lu Changsheng——
"Tell me why!"
"You, a man in the prime of life, would be unhappy if you gave the girl rouge and gouache to let the man of the house know about it!"
Zhao Hu slapped his head suddenly, turned around and left quickly. He went to Zhicaotang not far away and bought a vintage wild ginseng and asked the store to wrap it in a gift box.
"Fortunately you reminded me!"
The two of them left Xiaoshi and entered the shop. Not long after, they arrived in front of a courtyard of a wealthy family.
"You two, please let me know that I am a relative of Mrs. Zhao Qing!"
Zhao Hu stepped forward and gave each of the two servants a copper.
"Don't dare!"
The doorman put the copper in his arms while pushing the blame, and then someone said: "Please wait a moment, guest!"
Zhao Qing?
It turned out to be her!
Lu Changsheng suddenly felt enlightened.
With the same surname of Zhao, the person Zhao Hu has most connections with in this city should be Zhao Qing.
As for why Zhao Hu never came to Zhao Qing, he probably had some scruples.
"relative?"
In the inner house, a young woman frowned slightly as she listened to the servant's report.
Glancing at the gentleman with gray beard and hair not far away, she nodded and said, "Let them go to the side hall!"
After a long time, Lu Changsheng and Zhao Hu finally saw the person coming, but it was not Zhao Qing, but——
"Uncle Zhao!"
Zhao Xinghua had a faint smile on her face and gave her a gentle blessing.
Her face was like an apricot blossom, she seemed to be well-nourished, and her body was plumper. However, Lu Changsheng felt that she was missing some good things and had more bad things.
After Zhao Hu chatted with her for a few more words, he realized what was missing.
"This woman doesn't know that that kind of natural innocence is what men dream of!"
Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
Zhao Xinghua knows how to dress up, but it also feels artificial, especially since her disguise is far from refined to the point of returning to her original nature.
Even if Zhao Hu's thoughts were not so delicate, he could see it many times.
"Uncle Zhao wants aunt to help arrange for this person to study in Master's school?"
Soon, Zhao Hu gave the gift away and explained his purpose.
"Yes, yes! Immortality is also our Zhao——"
Zhao Hu suddenly felt that the clothes behind him were being pulled, and he felt a little confused.
Is there anything wrong with this?
Unfortunately, at this time, Zhao Xinghua had already heard it, "Are you from our Zhaojia Village too?"
Lu Changsheng sighed softly in his heart, knowing that this matter was probably impossible, so he followed him.
It’s not that Zhao Hu’s idea is wrong.
It would definitely be good if the relationship between the two parties could be brought closer, but who would have thought that this matter would involve Zhao Xinghua.
Even if the other party doesn't react now, after waiting and discovering his family and knowing that he has an older brother named Lu Mouzi, this matter will definitely not happen.
However, unexpectedly, his concerns were a bit unnecessary.
Because Zhao Xinghua directly refused.
"Uncle Zhao, this matter is very difficult to handle! My aunt has been living in fear recently. She is afraid that the master will be disgusted with her. You also know that she is a concubine. How can she control the affairs of the master in the front room? If she is Master knows, I’m afraid she will be implicated too!”
Zhao Hu's face suddenly turned red.
"Madam said, there is no need for gifts. This is the reward she gave you. It is worth one tael of silver. The friendship you brought her to Fucheng back then is worth one tael of silver. You are making a lot of money!" Zhao Xinghua smiled road.
She wanted to say congratulations casually, but when she saw Zhao Hu's cannibalistic eyes, she was frightened and took a few steps back.
"Fuck you bitch—" Zhao Hu was about to pounce forward, but was held back by Lu Changsheng behind him.
"Uncle Zhao, forget it!"
This place is not like any other place. When he came in, Lu Changsheng had seen several nurses who were exercising in the side courtyard. The muscles were thicker than his thighs. If there was a conflict, both of them would lose their lives. .
"Thank you madam for your kindness. Uncle Zhao and I will go back first!" Lu Changsheng took a deep look at Zhao Xinghua and said with a smile.
He grabbed the money bag that fell on the ground, put the gifts on the table into his arms, and pulled Zhao Hu away.
As soon as the two of them left, Zhao Qing walked out. Looking at Zhao Xinghua who was in shock, Liu Ye's eyebrows knitted together.
"Zhao Hu is still the same as before. He will show his teeth and claws at the slightest displeasure. We really can't have anything to do with this kind of person. Otherwise, when I pass the imperial examination, I might be in big trouble!"
"Auntie, I'm so scared!" Zhao Xinghua's face was filled with pear blossoms, and she threw herself into Zhao Qing's arms and cried.
"Okay, okay! It's just Zhao Hu! When you take down Mr. Xun, he will look at you like a mouse meets a cat!"
Zhao Qing patted her back and comforted her.
Finally, he said: "Also, you are still very unfamiliar with controlling the emotions on your face. If I were to confront that Zhao Hu, how could he have the intention to get angry?"
"Auntie will give you some more training tonight!"
"Yeah~ Auntie!" Zhao Xinghua whispered.
······
"What a bitch! When I brought her to Heishan Mansion, I was penniless, and in order to support her, I even worked as a night fragrance person! She once swore to me that she would repay me when she became successful! "
On the way back, Zhao Hu couldn't stop being angry, and his heart was full of coldness.
Lu Changsheng sighed in his heart.
The so-called Yexiang people sound good, but in fact, the work they do is far less elegant than the name suggests. To put it more simply, they are the people who clean toilets.
With Zhao Hu's temperament, it took him a lot of courage to do this kind of work.
"Back then, when I first came to Heishan Mansion, it was much worse than you! I was lucky enough to find a job with Yexiang people! Later, I was kicked out after not working for a long time!" Zhao Hu said in a deep voice.
Lu Changsheng thought of the child's body he saw years ago. It was the person who came out with them.
At this moment, I’m afraid I don’t know where the body is buried!
That is the portrayal of many people who first arrived in Heishan Mansion.
I am actually relatively lucky if I wait for others.
"There's no need to be angry. Sometimes this person still has to rely on himself!" Lu Changsheng handed the wild ginseng and money to Zhao Hu.
"Forget it! This ginseng looks a little disgusting to me, so you can keep it. Besides, studying is not a simple thing, and it can also be used to replenish your energy. As for this money - I will lend it to you until you become successful. Yes, just pay me back! You bitch, you boy, study hard for me, don’t say more, and become a boy student. If I see that bitch again, I’ll give him a few slaps!"
"Okay!" Lu Changsheng smiled, not rejecting Zhao Hu's kindness.
He really needs these things!
