The space boss's daily life of raising cubs, loving husbands and farming

Chapter 203 Sowing causes reaps fruits

After coming out of the restaurant, the three of them went back to their homes, and Shang Wan drove a ox cart to the teahouse to pick up Lu Chengjing.

Mr. Chu invited Lu Chengjing to a teahouse to discuss painting.

When Shang Wan went over, he found Qiao Yu'an was there too. The three of them were still discussing in the private room. Shang Wan stood at the door and took a look but didn't go in. He raised his hand to call the waiter and ordered a pot of tea. He sat in the lobby, watching people coming and going outside the window, and slowly sipping his tea.

Half an hour later, Lu Chengjing and the other two came down from upstairs.

"Chengjing, my sister-in-law is here." Qiao Yu'an first saw Shang Wan sitting by the window, and nudged Lu Chengjing, who was talking to Master Chu, with his elbow.

Lu Chengjing looked up and saw Shang Wan smiling and raising his teacup towards him.

The corners of Lu Chengjing's lips rose subconsciously, and he took a step forward.

"Have you agreed?" Shang Wan turned over the empty teacup and poured a cup of tea for Lu Chengjing.

Lu Chengjing picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said in a gentle voice, "I'll see you off, Brother Chu. Please wait for me for a moment."

"it is good."

After hearing the answer, Lu Chengjing put down the teacup and walked back.

Shang Wan's gaze followed him and fell on the young man in a crescent-shaped white robe standing next to Qiao Yu'an.

This person should be Master Chu.

She is in her early twenties and her appearance is not outstanding, but she is very pleasant to look at, and the faint smile on the corner of her mouth makes people feel like a spring breeze.

Perhaps noticing Shang Wan's gaze, the young man turned around, nodded politely at her, and then quickly withdrew his head.

Shang Wan's ears moved slightly, taking in the entire conversation of the three people.

Lu Chengjing came back after sending the person out, pulled out a chair and sat down opposite Shang Wan, "Thank you for waiting, madam."

Shang Wan put down his teacup and asked with a smile, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Never."

"What to eat?"

"ravioli."

The two of them went to eat wontons together.

Just now in the restaurant, after they finished talking about things, the food was already cold and the three of them barely touched their chopsticks.

The small wontons with dried shrimp and fresh meat at the stall are so delicious and tasty.

Eat in the evening and take away the food.

After tasting something delicious, of course I have to bring some for my family.

When Lu Chengjing was driving back, he got stuck at the city gate.

Upon asking, I found out that the Lu family's carriage broke down and was blocking the middle of the road, with no one being able to get in or out. It was being repaired.

Shang Wan stood on the ox cart and looked into the crowd, and immediately saw Mrs. Lu standing beside the carriage, supported by Li.

Compared to the last time I saw her, Mrs. Lu looked much more haggard and thinner.

Li's condition wasn't much better, and it seemed like all her pride was gone.

What surprised Shang Wan was the person standing behind them—Liu Yuzhi, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Why is she there?

She became more and more curious about the relationship between Liu Yuzhi and the Lu family.

"Let's go through the East Gate." Shang Wan reached out and touched Lu Chengjing's shoulder. They didn't know how long the traffic jam here would last, so it would be faster to take a detour.

I don't know if Lu Chengjing saw Mrs. Lu and her group. He nodded softly, pulled the reins to turn the ox cart around and headed towards the East Gate.

But today it seemed like they had disturbed the Lu family's nest, as they ran into Mr. Lu who had cut in line to enter the city at the city gate.

The two looked at each other. Lu Chengjing had a blank expression on his face, while Master Lu had an ugly look on his face and sinister eyes. The way he looked at Lu Chengjing was not like he was looking at his biological son, but rather as if he was looking at the enemy who murdered his father.

Neither of them said anything. Shang Wan looked around and resisted the urge to interrupt, but she didn't intend to waste time here. She reached out and poked Lu Chengjing's shoulder, "Let's go."

Lu Chengjing withdrew his gaze and drove the ox cart past the horse-drawn carriage next to it.

A heavy cold snort came from behind, and Master Lu called out to Lu Chengjing.

"Are you satisfied now?"

Lu Chengjing didn't look back, his voice was cold, "You reap what you sow, and you have to take the consequences yourself."

"Rebellious son!" Master Lu cursed in a deep voice, but Lu Chengjing ignored him and drove away in the ox cart.

Mr. Lu's angry curses came from behind him one after another, but it was obvious that Lu Chengjing was ready to ignore it and did not look back even once.

But Shang Wan couldn't stand it. Why should the fox she raised be scolded like a grandson?

For the sake of your father, just scold me a few words, there’s no point in letting it go on!

She turned her wrist and a piece of gravel flew out and hit the forehead of the cursing Master Lu.

The edges of the stone were sharp and blood came out immediately when it scratched the skin.

Mr. Lu covered his forehead with his hands and cried out, then fell into the carriage, and the cursing immediately stopped.

There was a commotion in the carriage, filled with the cries of servants and maids.

Shang Wan clapped his hands in satisfaction, and his ears finally felt quiet again.

Lu Chengjing looked back at her, with a hint of smile in his eyes.

Shang Wan rolled his eyes at him unhappily and said, "What are you looking at? Drive carefully."

She muttered, "A punching bag!"

Although the murmur was small, the two were close and Lu Chengjing obviously heard it.

He assured in a gentle voice: "I won't do that next time."

Shang Wan ignored him and closed his eyes and dozed off.

After an unknown amount of time, Shang Wan suddenly asked, "Are you okay?"

Lu Chengjing raised the edge of his hat and turned to look, "What?"

Shang Wan stared at him, "Keep pretending."

Lu Chengjing blinked innocently, “Please tell me clearly, madam.”

Shang Wan: “…”

She covered her face with the hat back in annoyance, and her voice came out through the hat, sounding a little muffled.

"Regarding the Lu family's matter, you stopped me from dealing with Lu Chengyuan before. Did you use this to leave a way out for the Lu family?"

The word "bloodline" is the most confusing and unclear.

Lu Chengjing was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he laughed out loud.

It was rare for him to laugh like this. Shang Wan took off his hat and looked at him with a surprised look, "What are you laughing at?"

The smile in Lu Chengjing's eyes deepened, "In my wife's mind, how can it not be worth laughing at the fact that your husband has such wisdom?"

Shang Wan: “…”

"Don't be poor!"

She asked seriously, "Isn't this really what you think is good?"

Lu Chengjing stopped laughing and shook his head slowly, "Even a person as wise as the current assistant minister doesn't dare to claim to have made every possible plan, so how can I have such ability?"

The Lu family was able to survive by cutting off its own territory, but they reaped the consequences.

Lu Shuhui is the cause, he is the cause, and the Wang family is also the cause. All these reasons have led to the current situation which can be called a coincidence.

However, I wonder how much effort Lu Chengyuan put in and what price he paid to convince Doctor Wang to intervene in this matter.

The young man lowered his brows, hiding the darkness in his eyes deep inside, not letting anyone see even a glimpse of it.

Shang Wan looked at him carefully. This fox had a long criminal record, so it was no wonder that she was suspicious.

She is a typical example of someone who is afraid of ropes after being bitten once.

From the letter sent by Lord An the day before, it can be seen that the Lu family was originally in a doomed situation, but was revived because of the intervention of Doctor Wang.

Even though they suffered heavy losses, as long as they could get through this time and wait patiently, perhaps the Lu family would be able to make a comeback with the help of the Wang family.

The confidant who delivered the letter also mentioned that Lord An would soon go to the capital to meet the emperor.

When this case is fully unveiled, I don’t know how many officials will be brought down.

Of course, the purpose of Lord An sending someone here was not only to deliver the letter, but also for the elixir in Shang Wan's hand.

He will bring his wife with him when he goes to Beijing this time. If his wife gets sick on the way, it will be convenient to have the magic medicine in hand.

Shang Wan was very generous this time and gave a whole bottle, which made the confidant smile from ear to ear and kept thanking Shang Wan.

He wanted to give him money, but Shang Wan refused to accept it and spoke nicely.

——The most difficult debt to repay is the debt of favor. As long as Madam An still needs elixir, Lord An will have to keep owing this favor.
