Butler Qi had no choice but to bite the bullet and brought some gifts to Xiangyun Inn to ask for an interview.
Lu Wenxuan was teaching Lu Xiaoshu how to play chess in the room, when he heard that the father and daughter looked at each other and smiled.
Lu Wenxuan was playing with the chess piece in his hand, and asked Lu Xiaoshu with a smile: "Girl, do you think we will meet or not?"
Lu Xiaoshu tilted his head and thought for a while, blinked his eyes and said with a smile: "Of course I'm missing! But, daddy can see it! Anyway, we won't suffer if we see him!"
Lu Wenxuan laughed loudly, threw the chess piece in his hand back into the chess box, clapped his hands and got up, and told Lu Hua, "Take him and wait in the living room, I'll come right away!"
When Steward Qi saw Lu Hua come out to invite him in, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief: If he was turned away, or even humiliated, he would lose face as a housekeeper!
After carefully questioning Lu Wenxuan's arrogant behavior at the gate of the Lu residence that day, Butler Qi felt that it was very possible!
After entering the small hall, Butler Qi gently put down the gift, then sat on the guest seat and waited quietly.
This is a small single-family courtyard in the Xiangyun Inn. Although it is small, it is very elegantly furnished. The corridor in the courtyard has exquisite scenery, lush flowers and trees, and many famous products. Even the picture scrolls hanging on the walls in the house and the antique jade decorations on the table case Duobaoge can be seen to be of great value.
Butler Qi secretly looked at it, and thought that it would not be cheap to rent this place. It would cost at least two or three hundred taels a month, not counting food... This self-proclaimed master is really rich. It seems that he is not trying to blackmail money Come, maybe it really is—
Butler Qi's heart skipped a beat.
After a while, Lu Wenxuan came out from the back room. He walked calmly and gracefully. He was wearing an old lake green long gown.
"Master Lu!" Butler Qi hurriedly got up, smiled and waved his hands in greeting.
"Isn't this Butler Qi!" Lu Wenxuan smiled, sat down leisurely on the main seat, and said with a smile, "What wind brought you here! We are all on our own, so if you have anything to say, just speak up! "
When Lu Wenxuan opened his mouth, Housekeeper Qi felt embarrassed, and his face turned red and white and smiled dryly, feeling extremely embarrassed.
The second master asked him to invite someone back to be a guest, but he didn't say that he would admit his relatives! My own? He brazenly referred to him as "one of his own people", but he didn't know how to answer the conversation for a while!
Lu Wenxuan sneered secretly in his heart, and after a while, seeing Butler Qi not making a sound, he smiled and said, "If there is nothing else, please go back!"
Seeing that Lu Wenxuan issued the order to evict guests, Butler Qi didn't care about anything else, and quickly got up, took out a red and gold-plated invitation card from his arms, and offered it to Lu Wenxuan with both hands, and said with a smile: "Master Lu, the second master of the family , The third master invited Master Lu to come to visit, I don't know that Master Lu... is convenient!"
As Housekeeper Qi expected, Lu Wenxuan's eyes froze, and two sharp eyes suddenly stared at him, and asked with a half smile, "A guest?"
"Yes..." Butler Qi felt that his voice was not his own.
Lu Wenxuan chuckled, casually took the invitation, opened it casually, glanced at it, and said with a smile, "Second brother, third brother, what do you mean by this? It's my own home, and they actually said they invited me to be a guest? Qi Butler, tell me, what is going on here?"
Butler Qi thought to himself, how do I know what's going on...
Speechless, I could only squeak and squeak with a smile on my face, and said vaguely: "I'm just an errand delivery man, how can I, a slave, understand masters' minds? Once you go, you'll know... "
"Hmph!" Lu Wenxuan smiled coldly, his face suddenly changed, and said with a sneer: "If they don't recognize me as a big brother, then don't bother me! If they recognize me as a big brother, they shouldn't humiliate me like this! Even if they have doubts, they should come to see me personally to collect evidence, right? No matter what, they can’t deliberately say such things to disgust me! I’m sorry, but I can’t agree with the word ‘guest’! You Go back and tell them that unless they recognize me and prepare a carriage and horse to pick them up in person respectfully, otherwise, I will not go back!"
Butler Qi was still a little guilty and uncomfortable at first, but he couldn't help being a little mocking after hearing this, and couldn't help sneering in his heart, secretly thinking that this person's tone is crazy! Waiting for the second and third masters to prepare their cars and horses to pick them up respectfully? It's a shame where he came from!
"If that's the case, then I'll take my leave! I will definitely pass on what Master Lu said to the second master and the third master!" Qi Butler said with a smile.
"See off the guests!" Lu Wenxuan ignored him and raised his voice.
Butler Qi glanced at the invitation in his hand, thought for a while, but couldn't get it back, so he followed Lu Hua out.
Lu Xiaoshu ran out from behind the partition, and said angrily: "Father, they are really bullying people! This old bastard is clearly here to disgust people! How dare you say you want to invite Dad to be a guest! Dad is the master of the Lu Mansion. !"
Lu Wenxuan smiled slightly and said, "It seems that they are in a hurry and want to find out about me."
"But, Dad said so today, will they come? If not, what should we do?" Lu Xiaoshu hurriedly asked again.
Lu Wenxuan said with a smile: "Of course they won't come. You two uncles are always proud and conceited, especially in front of your father! They won't bow their heads. However, Dad still has backup, so don't be afraid of them." Not coming!"
Lu Xiaoshu let out an "oh", but what was rare was that he didn't ask Lu Wenxuan what was behind him, which made Lu Wenxuan a little surprised. How did he know, Lu Xiaoshu knew very well in his heart, for some things, the less people know about them, the better.
"We can't just swallow our anger like this!" Lu Xiaoshu twitched his lips and said, "Since they have made a move, we should also reciprocate! Those tails, I have long since disliked them!"
Lu Wenxuan was taken aback, then burst into laughter unconsciously, flicking his sleeves and said with a smile: "Forget it, up to you!"
After Butler Qi returned to the mansion, he really reported Lu Wenxuan's attitude and all that he said to Brother Lu Wenhui without any concealment.
After hearing this, the two brothers were so angry that they didn't know where to vent their anger. They dropped the teacup in their hands and scolded Lu Wenxuan for being too bullying!
"Who really thinks that he can't do it? If he doesn't come, he won't come! Hmph, what a big tone, and you actually said that we should come to invite him back in person? Who does he think he is!" Lu Wenhui yelled angrily.
Lu Wenshi also said angrily: "That's right, I think he's just a counterfeit with a guilty conscience! That's why he made a request that we can't agree to at all. Ask someone to still monitor him to see how much trouble he can create!"
"The third brother is right!" Lu Wenhui nodded in agreement, and the two brothers couldn't help scolding Lu Wenxuan again. But no matter how much he scolded Lu Wenxuan, he couldn't hear him, and the effect of the scolding was greatly reduced, so that the two brothers were so aggrieved that they could hardly speak.
The next day, when they saw the four servants sent to follow and monitor Lu Wenxuan and his party back home in a state of embarrassment with bruised noses and crippled legs, the depression and aggrieved hearts of the two of them became even worse.
Lu Wenhui yelled "Too much deceit!", holding his breath and almost turned around. The old lady Lu was very angry when she found out, she kept yelling for her third son to send someone to take Lu Wenxuan and the others into prison.
Lu Wenshi is the Chancellor of Shuntian Mansion, so it is too easy to do this.
Lu Wenshi could only smile wryly, because he is the Prime Minister of Shuntian Mansion, so it is not easy to do so. The government office of Shuntian Mansion is right at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and the slightest disturbance can alarm unexpected nobles. Then Lu Wenxuan dared to do this, and he couldn't figure out his details. Who knows if there is someone behind him? If you act rashly, if something happens at that time, it will be too late to regret it!
Besides, after hearing what these slaves who had been beaten up and driven back said, what happened was an accident at all, and had nothing to do with Lu Wenxuan on the surface.
"We can't take this loss in vain!" Old lady Lu was very angry, she gritted her teeth and scolded: "I don't think this little bastard has any other skills after working outside for a few years, but this cruel and ruthless rascal has practiced a lot! Can't do it again!" Let him be like this, so our life will not be stable! Hmph, doesn't he want to see our family members? You two brothers will go there in person, I don't care what you do, bring him back to the mansion !"
As long as you are at the mansion, things will be much easier.
This matter is like a bone stuck in the throat, and it really makes people have no peaceful life. These days, the brothers Lu Wenhui couldn't eat well and couldn't sleep well. Although they were a little reluctant to hear what their mother said, they also knew that there was no better way.
Who wants to run into such a soft and hard person
The two Lu Wenhui brothers reluctantly agreed, and prepared another generous gift. They brought housekeeper Qi and two confidant house slaves to Xiangyun Inn that afternoon.
But who knew, the housekeeper Qi who went to talk and ask for a pass-through reported back that Lu Wenxuan was not at the inn today and went out to play! He also said that he seemed to be out of the city this time, and it might take two or three days or four or five days to come back!
The two Lu Wenhui brothers were once again furious. How can there be such a coincidence in the world? This is clearly an excuse! It's the excuse of that arrogant bitch who doesn't want to see them!
"In that case, let's come back in a few days!" Lu Wenhui gritted his teeth and walked away.
Avoid it? It just so happened that he didn't want to see him either! He will let him know that after missing this opportunity, it is impossible for him to take Joe as a ticket!
He was too naive. He really thought that with just a few unscrupulous, nonsensical and empty words from him, their Lu family would obediently follow suit and prepare carriages and horses to pick him up respectfully? dream!
Back at the mansion, Lu Wenhui told the old lady about the matter in a more eloquent manner. No matter how well-mannered the old lady was, she couldn't help but lose her patience, and said: "It seems that I was wrong this time, maybe I really look like the second daughter-in-law. As he said, he is a liar! Since you are so ignorant of flattery, then don't talk to him anymore, but see what he can do!"
