Farmer Fubo is open for business

Lu Huainian was silent for a moment and said: "Jingzhou, you are a descendant of the Lu family and you have to consider the interests of the family. Your mother's behavior is indeed wrong, but she is a stay-at-home woman with little knowledge and a small belly. You don't have to worry about people like her. "

Lu Jingzhou lowered his eyelids and said nothing, sneering in his heart.

In order to destroy the concubine, she drugged the underage concubine in front of the clan members on the day of ancestor worship, but her biological father told the concubine not to care?

"Dad, my son just wants to ask, if someone finds your son having sex with someone in the ancestral hall that day, what will you do?" Lu Jingzhou asked in a cold voice.

Lu Huainian closed his eyes and sighed: "Jingzhou, I believe that you would not do such a thing."

After a pause, he added: "If I, the son of the Lu family, can't restrain himself from the refreshing medicine, he won't be able to do great things in the future."

Lu Jingzhou laughed and stopped talking.

For a moment, the study fell silent.

After a pause, Lu Huaiyang coughed, took out a banknote from the drawer of the desk in the study and handed it over: "Jingzhou, since you don't want to live in the mansion, you don't have to force yourself as a father. Here are five hundred taels of silver. You Let’s use it first, and when the exam is over next year, my father will compensate me some more.”

Lu Jingzhou was not polite, took the banknote and put it into his sleeve: "Thank you, father."

Seeing his son collect the banknote, Lu Huainian breathed a sigh of relief and said warmly: "This first month, my father will not take you to visit relatives and friends. You will study your homework at home. My father will help you find any classics and books you need."

"Yes." Lu Jingzhou agreed with a low eyebrow.

After another moment of silence, Lu Huainian asked: "Where did you rent the house? Do you want servants to come and serve you?"

"No need, just let Feng Shan and Grandma Fang take care of my son. Too many people will disturb the peace." Lu Jingzhou lowered his eyes and said.

Lu Huainian knew that his son did not trust the servants in the house, so he sighed: "It's okay, you should pay attention to safety when you are out alone. If you meet a suitable servant, buy two to serve you. Those who have been raised since childhood will be more loyal than half-way."

"My son knows."

The father and son talked for a while, and then the eldest son Lu Yuanjin suddenly walked in.

He looked at Lu Jingzhou with a smile and said, "Second brother, why did you suddenly stab yourself like that that day? Did others think you were crazy if they didn't know?"

Lu Jingzhou turned to look at his eldest brother, half-smiling but not smiling: "If I'm crazy, it must be because there's something wrong with the wine that eldest brother brought."

Just as Lu Yuanjin was about to say something, he heard his father cough heavily: "Yuan Jin! It's not early, let's go see if the banquet is ready!"

"It's ready. Uncle and uncle are already here. Didn't I come to invite you to the main hall?" Lu Yuanjin glanced at his second brother and picked up the jade paperweight on his father's table to play with it.

When Lu Huainian heard this, he stood up quickly, straightened his robes, and then called his second son: "Jingzhou, come with my father to visit your two uncles."

His three brothers live next to each other and are now officials in Beijing at the same time, so this year Lu Huainian invited his eldest brother and his whole family to celebrate the New Year at his home.

Lu Jingzhou nodded and followed his father to the front hall.

Sitting in the front hall were my eldest uncle and second uncle, as well as several cousins.

Lu Jingzhou saluted them one by one, then sat next to his father and listened to his uncle and others talking about matters in the DPRK.

Seriously speaking, among the three Lu family brothers, Lu Huainian has the smallest official position.

Fortunately, Lu Huai-nian had a lot of work and life outside, and his life was relatively comfortable. Over the past ten years, he had accumulated a lot of family assets, and his official position had been promoted from the seventh-rank county magistrate to the fifth-rank governor of Qingzhou Prefecture.

Of course, he did not spend the money alone. Every year he had to honor his eldest brother Lu Huaiyan, who was the Minister of Rites in Beijing.

This year he returned to Beijing to renew his post, and it was his eldest brother Lu Huaiyan who brokered the deal, allowing him to take the place of a doctor in the Ministry of War's military election.

Although it is a fifth-grade official position, it is rare to be admitted to the sixth grade.

After talking for a while, the maid and mother-in-law had already prepared the banquet, and both cold and hot dishes were served.

Lu Huainian pulled his eldest and second brothers to sit down, and several juniors also sat down one after another.

Lu Jingzhou was even pulled by his uncle to sit down next to him and gave him a few words of encouragement, asking him to handle the exam seriously in February.

Although Lu Yuanjin was moved to the opposite position with a smile on his face, when he occasionally glanced at his younger brother Lu Jingzhou, there was jealousy and resentment in his eyes.

Although he was clearly the legitimate son, but he sat among the concubines of his eldest uncle and second uncle, Lu Yuanjin felt that his face had been stepped into the mud by his younger brother.

Even the legitimate son of the eldest uncle and second uncle was extremely polite to that bitch, as if he was the backbone of the Lu family.

snort! Isn't it just a test of Jie Yuan?

It's not like Jie Yuan failed in the examination before.

While Lu Yuanjin toasted to his cousins ​​with a smile, he secretly planned in his heart how to make Lu Jingzhou fail in the examination.

In fact, Lu Yuanjin also took part in the provincial examination this year, but he just didn't pass.

Although his father, Lu Huainian, didn't say anything, he no longer interfered with his studies. Instead, he gave all the best study materials to Lu Jingzhou.

This made Mrs. Cai very angry and she hated the concubine even more.

After the banquet was over, Lu Jingzhou was about to go back to his place, but his cousins ​​were talking around him, and some of them who were studying asked him many questions.

Lu Jingzhou answered them one by one, and played games such as archery and pot throwing with his cousins.

Several little girls came over with tea and tangerines and placed them on the small table.

One of the maids brought a cup of tea to Lu Jingzhou's hand.

Lu Jingzhou seemed not to notice and kept peeling the oranges to eat.

The maid waited for a long time. Seeing that Lu Jingzhou had eaten three oranges without touching the tea, she could only whisper: "Second Young Master, the tea is here."

Lu Jingzhou hummed, got up and went to Gong's room.

A cousin happened to sit at Lu Jingzhou's seat. Just as he was about to take the tea cup, the maid quickly took him away.

The young man frowned, turned his head and looked over, and saw the teenage maid lowering her head and saying: "The tea is cold, I will change it for you with hot water."

After that, he hurried back with the tea.

When he came to the tea room, he put the cup of tea aside, turned over another tea bowl, filled it with hot tea, and took it out.

The little girl guarding the charcoal stove was not surprised, holding a piece of snack and eating it, when she suddenly saw a bunch of copper coins on the ground outside.

She was pleasantly surprised, and quickly stood up and walked out of the tea room, picking up the copper coins on the ground.

"Haha! Whose reward money was lost and it gave me an advantage." The little girl put the copper coins into her sleeves. When she looked up, she saw a few copper coins scattered in front of her.

"Wow! I'm rich!" The little girl was so happy that she picked it up along the way.

The copper coins were gone until they reached the Moon Gate.

The little girl looked around again without giving up. Seeing that there was no one there, she happily returned to the tea room.

"Where did you go to be lazy?" The eldest maid in Mrs. Cai's house happened to come to get hot water. When she saw the little girl running out without permission, she couldn't help but poke her forehead with her finger.

The little girl shrank her neck and quickly defended: "I went to the latrine."

Chunxiang picked up the wife's copper teapot, pointed at the little girl and said, "A lazy donkey makes a lot of poop and pee! Aren't you going to wait for someone to take over before going to the latrine?"

"I'm anxious." The little girl continued to lie.

When Chunxiang saw her talking to her, she angrily pinched her mouth: "How dare you say something so stubborn? I see you have the heart of a bear but the courage of a leopard!"

The little girl quickly begged for mercy: "Sister Chunxiang, please spare me, I don't dare to do it anymore."
