Chapter 391: Disaster is approaching and pitiful
the other side.
The flustered Chuntao had already run to the outside of Lu Jie'en's house and was now raising her hand to knock on the door, "Butler Lu...Butler Lu...The Marquis wants to see you!
Butler Lu..."
I shouted a few times and knocked on the door a few times, but there was no response from inside the house.
Chun Tao had no choice but to continue knocking and shouting, "Butler Lu, are you there? The Marquis wants to see you!"
At this time, a servant who was passing by came over and said, "Chun Tao, stop knocking and shouting, Steward Lu is not in the room.
I just saw him, he went to the back along the East Alley, he must have gone to the ancestral hall to burn incense for the old marquis!"
"Oh!" After hearing what the servant said, Chun Tao nodded and thought for a while, "Then...then I'll go to the ancestral hall to find Steward Lu. Thank you!"
Having said that, Chuntao turned around and ran away again.
The servant looked at Chuntao's back as she ran away, raised his hand and scratched the back of his head...
This Chuntao...how has she changed?
In the past, Chuntao was a maid who followed the lady, and she was very arrogant!
Normally, I would ignore these servants when I see them.
I actually said thank you today!
Haha...is the sun rising from the west?
The servant turned his head to look at the sun in the sky, shook his head, exhaled, and walked towards the gate.
I heard that the gate was blocked by the shopkeepers and shop assistants who were asking for debts, and the crowds of people who were just watching the fun...
Ugh!
These days...when will it end?
Chuntao trotted along the East Avenue toward the ancestral hall.
In the ancestral hall, Lu Jie'en had just lit three incense sticks and kowtowed to the old marquis's tablet. Then he stood up and walked out of the ancestral hall, and saw Chuntao running towards him from afar.
When Lu Jie'en saw this, he thought, could something have happened to Yin?
At this point, what serious business can that woman have?
Whenever Lu Jie'en thought of Yin, he was filled with annoyance!
This woman is the scourge of the Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion!
He jumps up and down all day long, not knowing what to do.
It would be fine to let her satisfy her desire to be a lady, but now that things have come to this, what else does she want?
Lu Jie'en calmly closed the door of the ancestral hall, turned around and walked back with his hands behind his back.
Chun Tao ran over and said, "Butler Lu, I am here to invite you on the orders of the Marquis.
The Marquis is waiting for you now!"
Lu Jieen frowned.
Leng Xian went to look for him, but it was Chuntao who came to deliver the message. It seemed that Leng Xian and Yin were together now.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Lu Jien's lips, and he nodded slightly, "Then let's go!"
"Yes!" Chuntao carefully moved to the side of the road, letting Lu Jie'en pass, and followed carefully behind Lu Jie'en.
Lu Jie'en was not interested in asking Chuntao why Leng Xian and Yin came to see him.
Once we meet those two people, we will know the answer.
Lu Jie'en walked along the way in silence, just walking forward with his hands behind his back.
Chuntao, who was following behind, looked at Lu Jie'en's back and wanted to call him to say a few words several times, but she didn't dare to open her mouth.
But if I don't speak up, what if... what if...
Thinking of this, Chun Tao clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, and shouted, "Um...Butler Lu, please stay!"
Lu Jie'en stopped, turned around and looked at Chuntao who was standing there with an embarrassed look on her face.
"Is there something?" Lu Jie'en asked in a light tone.
Chuntao looked at Lu Jie'en and nodded nervously.
Lu Jie'en is a serious person who never smiles.
But when it comes to doing things, he is fair and meticulous, and the servants in the mansion also respect Lu Jie'en very much.
Chuntao thought that this was an opportunity, and if she missed it, she would regret it.
So, Chuntao stepped forward and bowed, "In reply to Housekeeper Lu, the Marquis and his wife asked you to come over because... because... they want to sell out the servants in the mansion.
Now, the masters need money and want to sell their servants...
Of course, the servants will be sold to whichever place offers more silver.
Chuntao was afraid... Chuntao was also afraid that she would be sold out;
I was even more afraid...I was even more afraid of being sold to those horrible places;
Therefore... Therefore... I want to ask Butler Lu, just in case...
In a moment... I would like to ask Butler Lu to say something good for Chuntao. Chuntao will be very grateful!"
After hearing Chuntao's words, Lu Jie'en was stunned at first, but then he quickly felt relieved.
I thought to myself: This is exactly what those two people do!
He was unable to find silver at the moment, and all the valuables in the mansion had been stolen. Now he was thinking that he could sell the servants in the mansion to get some silver, so he came up with this idea.
Lu Jie'en was truly full of disdain.
At the same time, he was extremely disappointed with Leng Xian!
As for Yin, Lu Jie'en never really regarded her as the mistress of this mansion.
In Lu Jien's mind, Fu Baozhen used to be the wife of Marquis Qinxing;
Later, Fu Baozhen passed away and became the late Lady of Marquis Qinxing.
As for Yin, she was just a mistress and concubine from beginning to end.
One, there is no formal marriage proposal or formal matchmaker;
2. There is no sedan chair carried by eight men and a red wedding dress that is ten miles long;
Third, without the imperial decree from the emperor, there is no glory!
She is not a proper marquis's wife at all.
As for the people around Yin, whether it was Nanny Lu, Chuntao, or Qiugui, they followed Yin around on weekdays, taking advantage of their power and being arrogant and domineering in this mansion, and they had done many things like bullying the eldest daughter of the legitimate wife.
None of them are good people.
Now that disaster has come, he is afraid that he will be affected, so he looks pitiful and begs in a low and soft voice.
Haha...they are not usually like this!
Lu Jie'en turned around expressionlessly and continued walking forward.
