Chapter 132 Thank you, Master, I'm back
Lu Yao had a good sleep, and when she woke up the next day, she felt that the world was a little brighter.
She washed her face, brushed her teeth, combed her hair, and made herself clean. She also picked out a blue gown that Xie Jingran had given her and put it on.
Clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse. A well-dressed Lu Yao is enough to shock people within a hundred miles.
"Ergou, why are you dressed so handsomely? Where did you get these clothes?" As soon as he walked out of the house, he was seen by Uncle Lu.
"I'm going out to discuss business. This is the outfit I bought for my business." Lu Yao said naturally without any panic.
"Oh." Uncle Lu didn't think much about it.
He heard from Lu's mother that Ergouzi was now in the city, making money by giving advice to others.
Just like the Feng Shui master, what he sells is wisdom and experience. He makes a lot of money by reading it once, which is very capable.
Unspoken rules of life: Capable children have a high status at home and are not hindered from doing anything.
In the past, every time Ergouzi went out, Uncle Lu would scold him at the top of his voice.
There's nothing we can do. This kid always gets into trouble and might end up getting sent to the government.
But now, Ergouzi is different from before. He goes out to earn money. As a father, he cannot delay his child from making money.
As for the clothes, if it were in the past, Father Lu would definitely have questioned her carefully.
But now that the Lu family has so many silks and satins, and they have seen so many fine things, this dress is not so conspicuous anymore.
So Lu Yao left the house without any obstruction, and after walking for a while, she arrived at Xie's house.
"Ergouzi! What are you doing here?" The servant at the door of Xie's house looked alert.
There was no one in Shanyang Village who didn't know Ergouzi, and the many servants in Xie's house were no exception.
Some have even tasted Ergouzi's "equality of all beings".
"Why are you so nervous? I'm here to deliver something to your Master Jingran." Lu Yao took out an exquisite wooden box. "This is what your Master wants. Why don't you go and let him know?"
The servant dared not not to report it, so he quickly closed the door and blocked Er Gouzi outside before he ran into the house to report the news with peace of mind.
"Hey!" It was the first time Lu Yao saw someone guarding against her as if she were a wild beast in the mountains.
Soon, the servant came back, followed by Songyan.
"Er Gouzi! It's really you!" Song Yan was surprised. "Come in quickly. The master is looking for you."
"Okay!" Lu Yao responded, and then held up the wooden box and shook it in front of the servant: "I didn't lie to you, did I? It's delivered by courier."
With this legitimate reason, she, a waifu, can meet the young master openly!
The servant scratched his head. What is home delivery?
Er Gouzi has entered the house. Should I report this to my wife? Is the young master safe?
Song Yan took Lu Yao to the small courtyard where Xie Jingran lived.
This was the first time Lu Yao came to Xie Jingran's residence after traveling through time.
After meeting the magnificent Queen of the Song Residence, Lu Yao felt that the Xie family's residence had a beautiful, quiet and natural environment, just like Xie Jingran's leisurely and contented appearance.
As expected, what kind of person lives in what kind of place, and a person’s home can always reflect everything about him.
The place was soon reached. "Miss Lu!" Xie Jingran stood in front of the door and waved at Lu Yao.
He was dressed in pink, emitting a soft glow in the sun, and the dark, simple carved door frame behind him framed his beautiful figure.
When Lu Yao took a look, she felt that it was as beautiful as a painting.
She couldn't help it, so she raised her foot and ran towards the person in the painting.
Xie Jingran held the round fan in his hand and quietly covered his chest.
From the moment he saw Lu Yao, all his worries and doubts disappeared, leaving only his pounding heart.
He saw Miss Lu today, wearing the gown he had given her.
That blue color really suits her. Not only does it make her look great, it also adds a touch of elegance to her already vigorous and heroic appearance.
The more you see it, the more excited you become.
She is finally back!
"Thank you, Master!" Lu Yao ran up to him in one breath and stopped in a hurry. The two stood face to face, as if they were meeting again after a long separation.
"You're back! Are you okay?" There were stars twinkling in Xie Jingran's eyes, and he had a lot of questions to ask.
"I'm back. I'm fine." Thousands of words were turned into two simple sentences, and Lu Yao just smiled and looked at Xie Jingran.
Song Yan, who was standing by, looked at the two of them and quietly rolled his eyes.
Everything is self-evident. Even a blind person can see what the two of them are thinking.
"Sir, please don't fall in love!" Song Yan cried in his heart.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds and couldn't help laughing.
"Come in first. Songyan, serve the tea." Xie Jingran and Lu Yao entered the house, and Songyan served the tea.
"I got a letter saying that the place where you used to live was bought by someone. Where did you live later? Are you doing well in the city recently?" This is what Xie Jingran has been most concerned about these days.
"Everything is fine. There has been a lot going on lately."
Like many times in the past, the two of them chatted freely, as if they were old friends.
Lu Yao first started by giving business advice to Yang Ersao's snack bar, and said that she had developed this business by chance.
He also said that on his way back to the village, he encountered a villain who wanted to rob and kill the son of the Song family. He acted bravely, defeated the villain and saved the son.
In order to express his gratitude, the young master of the Song family invited me to stay in the Song Mansion to recuperate.
And the villains he defeated turned out to be a criminal gang wanted by Ping'an County and several surrounding counties. For this, the county magistrate rewarded him with sixty taels of silver!
Xie Jingran listened quietly, his heart rising and falling with Lu Yao's experience.
He and Song Yan were both stunned. No one interrupted them. They were completely immersed in Lu Yao's narration, as if they were listening to the most tortuous, bizarre and exciting story in the world.
Finally, after hearing that Lu Yao was rewarded with sixty taels of silver by the county government for his meritorious service in catching the evildoer.
Song Yan said stupidly: "Er Gouzi, you are really amazing."
Xie Jingran tightly grasped the round fan, not knowing whether to praise or criticize.
This experience was certainly full of ups and downs and very exciting, but it was so dangerous at the time!
What if, what if Ergouzi didn’t defeat them by chance?
Compared to the exciting story, Xie Jingran's focus is always on: Lu Yao suffered, Lu Yao was in great danger at the time, etc.
"You, you are always eager to save people, but never think about your own safety." Xie Jingran was actually a little reproachful.
"Hehe, it's okay, I know what to do." When Lu Yao heard Xie Jingran's scolding, she felt warm in her heart and very happy.
"With these sixty taels, I bought the shabby yard I lived in before, and I'm renovating it now.
So what Zhan Ying saw was my newly built house, a two-story building!" Lu Yao said happily, and then suddenly remembered something.
"Hey? Where's Zhan Ying? Why didn't I see Zhan Ying today?"
No wonder I always felt like something was missing. It turned out that Zhan Ying, who was there every time before, was not here this time.
What was she doing?
"Zhanying went out for something." Xie Jingran said before Song Yan could.
Songyan glanced at his own son and sighed helplessly.
