Chapter 21 Liu Ping ran away
It was already afternoon when Lu Yuan woke up.
He learned from his servants that the woman he had bought with 12,000 taels of gold had actually run away.
You know, Liu Ping's indenture contract is still in his hands.
She even pawned the jewelry he lent her.
Lu Yuan was so angry that he wanted to go and capture Liu Ping himself.
But he slept for half the day and slept until the afternoon without eating any food.
hungry.
So Lu Yuan asked his confidant to catch him.
He chose to eat first because he couldn't starve himself.
Xu Qiuyue was preparing medicinal herbs.
She received five thousand taels of silver from Lu Yuan and had a lot of money in her hands.
Xu Qiuyue wanted to practice first.
Naturally, these medicinal herbs are indispensable for replenishing qi and blood.
"Madam, that prostitute actually ran away by herself. Isn't that ridiculous? Her origin is that of a lowly person. No matter where she goes, she can only be a prostitute, unless she is brought back by the young master.
She ran away on her own and left the Lu Mansion on her own. How ridiculous is that."
Chunzhu chattered incessantly in Xu Qiuyue's ear.
Xu Qiuyue didn't expect that Liu Ping actually ran away.
He ran away less than a day after arriving at the Lu Mansion.
This is very different from the Liu Ping that Xu Qiuyue knew.
Although Liu Ping is a bad person, he is very scheming and would never be so impatient.
Xu Chunhua clearly said that Lu Yuan liked Liu Ping very much, and he and Liu Ping were very affectionate in the Lu Mansion.
Thinking about it now, all this was Xu Chunhua's illusion.
In her previous life, when Xu Chunhua entered the Lu Mansion, she had an unpleasant argument with Lu Yuan.
So when Lu Yuan brought Liu Ping back, Lu Yuan gave Liu Ping a lot of face and did not give Xu Chunhua any face.
This kind of treatment probably made Liu Ping very happy.
So Liu Ping and Lu Yuan get along very happily.
But later, the two began to have conflicts.
I'm afraid that Liu Ping suffered a lot at the hands of Lu Yuan and only then did he grow up slowly.
Liu Ping today has not yet learned Lu Yuan's scheming.
So I just couldn't keep my cool.
"Chun Zhu, you've worked hard these days, and I know everything you've done by my side.
Since I married into the Lu family, you have been taking care of me.
This silver is a reward for you. If you have any questions about that woman in the future, please help me find out more and come back to tell me when the time comes."
Xu Qiuyue took out ten taels of silver and handed it to Chunzhu.
Chunzhu's eyes widened, this was ten taels of silver.
With this money, I no longer have to worry about my elder brother's marriage, and even the money for my younger brother's marriage is enough.
She didn't expect Xu Qiuyue to be so generous.
So much silver.
She was also a little embarrassed to ask for it.
Although her eyes were full of longing, she couldn't take a step forward.
Xu Qiuyue walked to Chunzhu and said to him, "Just take this money! I know there is no profit in following me. You have suffered."
"Madam, it's not hard to be with you. There's nothing to do. I have a lot of free time every day. You also cook a lot of delicious food for me."
Chunzhu said to Xu Qiuyue with some emotion.
Xu Qiuyue has also observed Chunzhu for a long time.
Another thing is that she really needs a maid to help her run errands.
Wait until you are stronger in the future.
Xu Qiuyue planned to take Chunzhu's indenture contract from Lu Yuan when the time came.
If you really want an important confidant, you must have the indenture contract in your own hands before you can trust it.
This is also the lesson Xu Qiuyue has learned from her previous life to now.
"Chunzhu, I'll give you half a day off today. Take the money and go home first! I heard that your home is also in Taohua Town, very close."
"Thank you, Madam." Chunzhu expressed his gratitude from the bottom of his heart.
In fact, all the maids and servants in the mansion knew that the master and mistress of the family valued Xu Qiuyue very much.
The most important thing is that Lu Yuan treats Xu Qiuyue with great respect.
And he brought Liu Ping back last night, but he stayed in Xu Qiuyue's room on the day he came back.
Moreover, Lu Yuan rarely suffers from such physical exhaustion.
I heard that his legs were weak.
He staggers when he walks and falls asleep as soon as he falls into bed.
The servants all said that the young mistress was angry.
He was angry that the young master brought people back, so he drained the young master's energy.
But the young master must be willing too!
The young master is obviously incapable, yet he is willing to be punished by the young mistress.
It can be seen that the young master is indeed in true love.
The young master is really seriously injured.
The chef also specially cooked some nourishing soup for Lu Yuan.
Chunzhu knew all these rumors clearly.
Chunzhu is an elder in the mansion and is good at gathering information.
And the young lady eats well.
The housekeeper in the mansion had previously reported to Lu Yuan that Xu Qiuyue wanted to eat those valuable and rare things, and asked if the mansion wanted to purchase them.
Lu Yuan nodded and agreed to all of them, and said that if the young lady wanted to eat something later, she could go buy it and she didn't need to report to him, but she had to write down what she bought.
You know, Lu Yuan would bring girls back before.
But Lu Yuan was very stingy and didn't give these permissions.
As for bookkeeping, this is quite normal because Lu Yuan likes to check the account books.
Basically, no money can be made from purchases in the palace.
Lu Yuan is so smart.
Xu Qiuyue is Lu Yuan's legal wife, and this identity proves the nobility of Xu Qiuyue's status, even though she is just a peasant girl.
Chunzhu was nice to Xu Qiuyue at the beginning, and she also wanted to stay with Xu Qiuyue. By then, she would be the number one maid in the mansion.
After all, there was no one serving Xu Qiuyue.
She has always been the only one.
If Xu Qiuyue didn’t love farming so much.
Chunzhu even suspected that Xu Qiuyue was not a peasant girl at all.
Xu Qiuyue's etiquette and demeanor were so good that even the maidservant beside the lady could not find any fault with her.
"Madam, I am a bit busy today. I have a lot of things to do. I can only have dinner with you today. I hope you don't mind."
Lu Yuan was really a little scared.
His brain is still twitching.
He doesn't want to learn anymore.
He was afraid that Xu Qiuyue would teach him again.
If he was asked to study hard and take the imperial examination, Lu Yuan would definitely not do it.
But Xu Qiuyue encouraged him to work hard in the area of business that he was best at.
He can only learn.
With his intelligence and talent, he thought he was the smartest person in the world.
But Xu Qiuyue just didn't know where she got so much new knowledge that he didn't know or had never heard of.
It’s okay to learn one or two.
But I can’t stand studying without rest.
His body couldn't bear it.
So Lu Yuan really didn't dare to spend the night at Xu Qiuyue's place.
"My husband, please pay more attention to rest at night and don't work too hard. After all, my husband is a little weak and there is no end to the money you can make."
Xu Qiuyue knew very well in her heart that if Lu Yuan had something to do at night, he definitely was not busy with business.
After all, Liu Ping ran away, and Lu Yuan must deal with this matter.
However, Xu Qiuyue did not point it out, but pretended to know nothing and asked Lu Yuan to take care of his health.
