Chapter 372 Know the reason
No, she came to coax big brother, how come big brother became the one coaxing her?
Something is wrong, very wrong!
"Brother, you..."
Lu Jing touched her little hair bun, and sure enough, the little girl immediately got angry.
She took several steps back, stretched out a hand to touch her hair, and looked at him warily, "Brother, I told you not to touch my hair, it will get messy later."
Lu Jing looked at the sky outside and said, "Anian, it's dark now, it doesn't matter if your hair is messy."
"No, I'm leaving and going back."
Watching her turn around and leave angrily, Lu Jing sat down on the chair, stretched out his hand to signal the servants to go out, and stared at the candlelight in a daze.
Lu Nian walked into the garden before she realized something was wrong. Her eldest brother knew that her hair should not be touched, and every time he touched it, she would get angry.
So, Big Brother did this on purpose to get me out of the way?
She rolled her eyes and said, "Dong Shuang, let's go back to the study."
"Miss, the master of the family doesn't look very happy. You should not make him angry, right?"
Lu Nian waved his hand and said, "I'm not going to look for my elder brother. I'm going to look for Fusheng. He has been guarding outside the study. He must know who has been here."
"Will he tell the young lady?"
"Yes," Lu Nian paused, and added, "If he doesn't tell me, I will find an excuse to deduct his money later, hehe."
Dong Shuang gave a thumbs up. The young lady was indeed powerful. Her first move went straight towards his vital point.
Lu Nian quietly walked out of the study again, and not only that, she also asked Dong Shuang behind her to go with her.
Dong Shuang looked at her young lady hunched over and tiptoeing, with a smile on her lips. But when she thought about having to do the same, the smile disappeared instantly.
"Hurry up, Winterfrost."
Fusheng stood at the door of the study, watching the master and servant tiptoe towards him and wave to him from the grass four meters away from him.
It was dark now, and the winter frost had lit up a lantern, completely ruining the image of both the master and the servant.
I really wanted to pretend that I didn't see it, but I thought the lady would be angry, so I walked past reluctantly.
"Miss, are you looking for me?"
"Shhh."
Lu Nian glanced in the direction of the target and motioned him to speak more quietly, "Fusheng, squat down."
Fusheng felt it was unnecessary, but after looking at Dongshuang who was also squatting, he squatted down swiftly.
"Fusheng, let me ask you, who came to see my brother this afternoon?"
After hearing this, Fusheng instantly regretted his decision. If he had known the young lady would ask this, he would have just stood there pretending to be stupid.
"This, the servant doesn't know either."
Lu Nian's gentle face suddenly turned fierce, "You are lying, you must know, tell me quickly?"
Fusheng shook his head. He knew it was true, but he couldn’t say it!
If he wants to stay with the master of the family, he has to keep his mouth shut. If he had said it so easily, he would have been unable to stay with the master of the family long ago.
Lu Nian narrowed his eyes. Why was this man so stubborn? "Will you tell me or not?"
Fusheng shook his head, "Miss, please spare me."
Lu Nian nodded, "If you don't want to say it, forget it. I'm not the kind of person who would force a servant."
He was about to stand up, and did not forget to say to Dong Shuang behind him: "Dong Shuang, remember this. Tomorrow we will come to find big brother and find an excuse to deduct Fu Sheng's monthly salary."
Fusheng: ! !
"Miss! The slave says!"
If he hesitated for a few more seconds, it would be disrespectful to the money.
He lives on this little bit of money, and the young lady deducts even this little bit of money, so he won't be able to make ends meet!
Lu Nian curled the corners of his lips. As they said, Fusheng loved money the most.
However, when he was with Lu Jing, he was still very principled. He would not take money that was not his own, so it was very difficult for outsiders to bribe him.
"Go ahead and tell me. I'll give you five taels of silver after you explain it clearly."
"Good."
Anyway, the master of the family can't hide it from the young lady in the end. The young lady will definitely know it. Besides, he told the young lady and didn't tell anyone else, so the master of the family won't be angry.
"A man did come this afternoon. He was very good at martial arts and appeared in the master's study without alerting the guards in the mansion."
Lu Nian stroked his chin in deep thought, "Really? What's your name?"
"Tianqing, this servant heard the master call him Tianqing."
Lu Nian paused while touching her chin. She thought, she should know why her elder brother was like this.
Sure enough, the next second, Fusheng continued, "He said that his master asked the owner to go to Daohua Village the day after tomorrow, and that his master was about to propose to Miss Shen. As a good friend of Miss Shen, the owner should be there."
Lu Nian swallowed his saliva. It was indeed like that!
She looked at the study room with worry in her eyes. Big brother...
He let out a long sigh, and there was no way he could comfort himself.
Fusheng looked at the thoughtful young lady and added, "By the way, the head of the family calls that man the prince."
Lu Nian stood up, walked a few steps and then stopped. His elder brother must want to be alone now, so he decided not to disturb him and turned around and walked back to his own yard.
Fusheng followed behind, watching the master and servant walking away, and wanted to say, "Miss, give me the five taels of silver you promised to give me!"
When I returned to the room, I said to Dong Shuang, "Pack a few sets of clothes. We will go with my brother tomorrow."
"Yes."
Big brother should go alone and not get upset. She is worried and has to go with him to take a look.
"Miss, will the master of the family take you there?" Dong Shuang asked while packing her clothes.
"Will do."
Even if you don't take her with you, she will still insist on going with you.
The next day, when Lu Jing opened the carriage curtain, he saw Lu Nian sitting on it and said softly, "An Nian, my elder brother has to go out for something. You stay at home. I will take you out to play next time."
Lu Nian raised his chin proudly, "Brother, you said you wanted to lie to me, but I know where you are going, and I want to go with you."
Hearing this, Lu Jing glanced at Fusheng who was lowering his head beside him. He knew without a doubt that he must have known it from him.
"Brother has something to discuss, and it's inconvenient to take you with him."
Lu Nian shook his head, "Brother, I want to go too. If you don't take me with you, I will follow behind."
Seeing the stubbornness in the little girl's eyes, he realized that he couldn't stop her today. For her safety, Lu Jing still took her with him.
……
Shen Qianan went out the next morning and came back at noon, bringing back a lot of books.
Shen Jingyuan and Yang Fan had packed their luggage early in the morning and had taken it to the dock to check in. They were just waiting for Shen Qian'an to come back so they could go back.
"Old Four, is everything ready in the academy?"
"Well, I've already told the dean and the teacher. They're all happy for me when they know I have a place in the Imperial College."
"Haha, let's pack up and go."
