Chapter 231 Redemption is not enough
Chapter 231 Redemption is not enough
Lou Xiao doesn't want to see Xiao Zhengdu again recently.
She didn't know why, maybe she realized that day that he felt relieved about Yue Pengyu's death -
But he was not wrong.
It seemed like this was always the case. From Xiao Zhengdu's perspective, he was not at fault, but from her perspective, she couldn't have the same state of mind as him.
In Yanchang Courtyard, Lou Xiao did not continue to do the finishing work.
Yunsu City has no shortage of good accountants. They must record every penny of Hengjian Villa and then send it all to the capital.
A constable went to the never-extinguished furnace in the back mountain to look for possible bones inside to confirm whether what Yue Mingxuan said was true.
Yue Kun, did he really kill each of his wives?
Xiao Zhengdu was playing cozy with various forces in Yunsu City.
Lou Xiao was a lazy person. He just said he would not go and just sat there guarding the koi pond in Yanchang Courtyard, his mind empty.
Only Yuheng was with him, and I didn't dare to disturb him.
"I'm leaving in the next two days." She suddenly asked Yu Heng, "Did Yue Pengyu give you money in advance when he invited you? She has no more money, so if it's not enough, just ask.
Otherwise, all your property will be registered and you won’t be able to get it.”
How could Yuheng mention money in front of her? He only replied respectfully, "My lord, it's enough to deal with the boss."
"Will you return to Luoyang Houseboat after I leave? When are you going to redeem yourself and find a college to study in?"
Lou Xiao casually pulled some grass leaves from the koi pond and rubbed them carelessly in his palm.
Yuheng lowered his head and said meaningfully, "It will take more than just silver to redeem me, and I still don't have enough silver. It will take some time to save up enough."
Lou Xiao said "Oh" and nothing else. Yu Heng was waiting for someone to say "I'll redeem you", but unfortunately that didn't happen. Lou Xiao seemed to have other thoughts in her mind, so she didn't take his words to heart.
He decided to initiate the conversation and couldn't wait any longer.
"What are you worrying about, my lord? I wonder if I can help you with that?"
Lou Xiao threw away the crushed leaves in her hand.
"How do you plan to settle Yue Tianci? Hengjian Villa is on the verge of collapse. He is still young and ignorant. Without anyone to help him, I don't know how he will live in the future."
Yu Heng thought to himself, no matter how sad he was, could it be as sad as myself?
He is just a pampered young master. No matter how difficult it is for him to live the life of an ordinary citizen, he would never sell himself to join the Luoyang pleasure boat like he did.
There are also the lights that are lit in the dark streets of Yunsu City at night, and the people who are struggling to survive under the lights. Who has an easy life?
"Hengjian Villa has a good reputation. People in the martial arts world value friendship and loyalty, so they will definitely not make his life difficult."
Yu Heng replied after careful consideration, "But the most serious problem right now is his emotional problem. Does your Excellency have any solution?"
Lou Xiao shook her head. She didn’t know how to make him let it go.
Yu Heng suggested, "After what happened, for his safety, he can no longer stay in Yunsu City. Your Excellency might as well send him to the capital and keep an eye on him."
Lou Xiao refused, "There are so many disabled veterans in the capital. If they knew he was from the Yue family, I'm afraid there would be conflicts."
Yu Heng then said, "Then send him to the academy? With teachers watching over him, he should be safe. It just depends on whether he can stay there."
Lou Xiao remembered that he had said that his elder sister was going to send him to the academy.
"Cang——"
She couldn't remember clearly, but Yuheng reacted immediately.
"Canglu Academy. It's located deep in the mountains with beautiful scenery. It's a good place to study hard."
