Chapter 10
The six maids behind the old lady turned around, two were busy drying the old lady’s hair, two hurriedly fetched quilts to cover the old lady’s body, two wrapped hot pebbles in cloth towels and rubbed the old lady’s arms. The old lady's face turned pale and purple with cold slightly improved.
She relieved her cold breath and raised her eyes to Lu Huan: "You saved me, what do you want?"
When the old lady asked this, Mrs. Ning Wang's complexion was not very good.
Today, she invited the old lady to come out to enjoy the plum. The intention was to please the old lady, but who knows that this kind of accident happened like a ghost! Wenxiu was disgusted and angered by the old lady, and even let Lu Huan take advantage of it, and she won her favor!
The old lady said in King Ning's Mansion that even King Ning was a little afraid of him, the mother of a family of military commanders. If Lu Huan was appreciated by the old lady, would his life go well in the future?
What can he want--what else can he want as a bastard? Naturally, want to sit on an equal footing with two prostitutes!
Madam Ning was angry in her heart, but she did not dare to show it at all. She just stood beside the old lady with concern, and said softly to Lu Huan: "Since the old lady wants to reward you, you can speak boldly."
Naturally, the old lady had some consideration in her mind.
Although she doesn't go out to Mei'an Garden often, she is always accurate.
Among the three children of King Ning's Mansion, although Lu Yuan is still mature and stable, he is too mediocre, and there is no bright spot. And Lu Wenxiu needn't say, today it looks like a waste snack!
The huge King Ning's Mansion, only this concubine has outstanding ability, far better than those two.
Moreover, today he jumped into the biting ice water to save himself. It was reasonable and he should reward him.
However, the old lady knew very well in her heart that there was a difference between the concubines, and Lu Huan made other financial requests. If he wanted to sit on an equal footing with the two elder brothers, then he would be too greedy.
When she was thinking about it, she listened to Lu Huan and opened her mouth.
"Lu Huan is happy and quiet. I hope no one can enter and leave my residence at will in the future. I hope the old lady will agree."
Mrs. Ning Wang and the old woman were both surprised--
The old lady was stunned: "That's it?"
The boy's voice was cold, and there was no emotion: "That's it."
Lu Wenxiu, who was kneeling on the ground, turned pale all of a sudden. What did Lu Huan mean, whether he liked it or not, did he insinuate that he led the crowd to plant him a few days ago? Is it possible that he would take the opportunity to settle this account in front of the old lady? !
The old lady never expected that Lu Huan's request was so simple, she just wanted a quiet place to live?
But then it occurred to him that the Chaiyuan where Lu Huan lived was indeed mixed with the residences of the subordinates, and it was inevitable to be noisy.
Even the concubine, being treated so harshly, is too much. These matters have always been handled by the manager, and it is clear who is behind the manager.
But the old lady didn't care about these idle things at all. She had always been like King Ning, with one eye closed. So that at this time, he suddenly realized the difficult situation of his grandson living in the mansion.
Can it be difficult? She had just heard about it when she left Mei'an Garden today. A few days ago, Lu Wenxiu ran to Lu Huan and arbitrarily planted and framed her, but failed, and made a big joke.
Presumably Lu Huan made this request because he was tired of finding fault with his second brother.
The old lady's mood was slightly complicated for a while.
He had already promised this concubine about what he wanted, but he only made such a trivial request. Is he really not greedy for anything?
The old lady thought for a moment, and then told the mother next to him: "Go and tell the general manager, I have given Lu Huan a reward for a house, let all the people living around him move away, and no one will be allowed to approach him at will. Where to live! If you dare to violate it, you will pick up the punishment yourself! In addition, you will add three taels of silver to Huan'er every month."
Both Mrs. Ning Wang and Lu Wenxiu's faces were a little ugly.
Even Si Yiniang didn't have a whole house, she lived with some maids, and now, Lu Huan had a whole house first.
There are also three taels of silver a month, although it is not much, but at least it is enough for him to manage some people. Compared with the situation where he was treated harshly everywhere, it is much better.
The people kneeling on the ground around him also watched their noses and noses, and they also had cares in their hearts.
Before, they lightly insulted Lu Huan because no one in King Ning's Mansion cared about Lu Huan's life or death. But now, Lu Huan rescued the old lady, I am afraid he can no longer be treated like that in the future.
This day, it seems to have changed a bit.
"As for you." The old lady turned her head to look at Lu Wenxiu, her face made no secret of disgust, "Aren't you going back and thinking about it behind closed doors for a month?! Why are you kneeling here to get in the way?"
Lu Wenxiu was angry and wronged, and wanted to argue, "Grandma, how can you give Lu Huan a house? Even I--"
Before he could finish speaking, the old lady kicked over again with anger, stubborn, trash, without first seeing what he had done, she was uninterestedly jealous of Lu Huan in front of her.
"If it weren't for Lu Huan, my old bone would have been dragged down in the stream by your useless thing today. What are you complaining about? It would be good if you were not punished to kneel in the ancestral hall!"
Mrs. Ning Wang was afraid that her stupid son would say something to irritate the old lady, she quickly stopped, and said to the two maids: "Hurry up and take the second young master back to think behind closed doors?!"
Before Lu Wenxiu was taken away by the two subordinates, she gave Lu Huan a gritted tooth.
Lu Huan also looked up at him, his eyes cold.
The old lady said no more, and was anxious to go back to get warm. Mrs. Ning Wang and a group of people surrounded her and left, and the crowd under the corridor finally dispersed.
Water was still dripping on Lu Huan's black hair, he turned around and took the concubine, and sent her back to the fourth wife first.
On the Suxi side, a message popped up.
"Congratulations: the main quest (obtained by the old lady of King Ning's Mansion) has been completed 1/2. The protagonist has received a piece of land, bonus gold coins +25, points +3."
Suxi was relieved to see that the task was initially completed.
Although don't know why this main task is only one-half completed, but guess there should be some place later that will be related to the old lady.
The system said: "If you have accumulated 11 points, you can unlock another place. Where do you want to unlock?"
Suxi didn't hesitate, of course, he unlocked the land that the old lady gave to Lu Huan.
Although the process of getting it was a bit tortuous and laborious, Zai Zai finally had a house, and was no longer a Zai Zai who only owned a small wooden house.
Suxi is all a little excited for the game villains. We have land and houses. Are we still far from dominating the Forbidden City? !
The nurse outside knocked on the door, Suxi wiped her face with a towel, jumped to the door of the ward to pick up the breakfast from the nurse, and said thank you with a smile.
The nurse sister wondered: "Bed 26, what is so happy in the morning?"
Suxi smiled and returned to the bed with breakfast.
She took a few bites of breakfast, turned the game screen, first opened the map with relish, and looked at the whole picture of the land rewarded by the old lady.
It is said to be a house, but it is naturally not as graceful and luxurious as the Ya Meixuan and Ya Xin'an where Madam Ning and Lu Yuan live, with winding verandahs and verdant flowers everywhere.
And it was just a bare open space with nothing.
but--
so big!
Suxi was in a happy mood, what a big open space!
There were only a few large firewood courtyards on the open ground, and besides that, there was a bamboo forest, which was covered with snow at this time.
But Suxi is still very happy. Such a large piece of land, although it is a bit crude, but if there are no servants and Lu Wenxiu rushing in to disturb her, she will help the cubs open up wasteland, raise some chickens, ducks, and grow cabbage potatoes. Yes, Cubs can live a good life!
At the very least, there will be no shortage of food and clothing.
There is almost new hope for everything!
Obviously, the game villain on the screen thinks the same way. Although his body is soaked, his dark eyes are bright, and the pace of going back is much easier.
The subordinates who had lived around the Chaiyuan were being driven away by the housekeeper at this moment. Before they left, they talked quietly, recalling whether they had offended the third young master before.
There are even a few gangsters who are discussing whether to go up and apologize. Otherwise, the Feng Shui will take turns. By then, the concubine will really become the red man in front of the old lady. Then those who deliberately targeted him have no way to survive?
However, Lu Huan ignored all these.
When he returned to the Chaiyuan, he went to boil water, and his whole body was cold to the bones. If he didn't warm up his body earlier, he would have typhoid fever.
...
When he picked up the bucket, he recalled the scene just by the stream, and couldn't help frowning. It was chaotic at the time, and he didn't see how the guy asked Lu Wenxiu to take the old lady down the stream.
Although Lu Wenxiu shot himself in the foot with a rock, Lu Wenxiu's luck has been too bad recently.
Could it be the same as the last meal incident, someone is helping yourself?
This thought flashed away, and immediately caused some subtle and erratic emotions in Lu Huan's heart——
He noticed his emotions and his face immediately sank.
Help yourself secretly? It's ridiculous to think of myself as if I have some desire.
If you don't have any interest in your own body, how can someone help without asking for return?
When he was young, he still had a little trust in people and helped one of them, but after that, he immediately turned back, causing him to be grabbed by Mrs. Ning and beaten up. In those few days, he was dying, dripping with blood, and people around him came and went, but no one helped him. Some of the scars on his body have not healed.
From birth to now, if not for his fate, he would have died thousands of times.
Human life is humble, life is like ants.
In this King Ning's Mansion, his survival is a hundred times ten thousand times more difficult than the others.
He knows that the only person in this world who can be trusted is himself.
As for the person who has been in the dark--
Lu Huan's eyes fell on the unextinguished charcoal fire in the corner, and his fingers curled up nervously.
He tried his best to ignore the poor warmth, the subtle sensation that fell on his frozen skin and quietly spread to the heart along the blood, and looked away indifferently and mockingly.
In the dark, in the dark, he will always show his horse's feet and be pulled out by himself.
Although I don't know the purpose of the other party for the time being, I will always be known by myself.
I believe that there will be people in this world who treat him well, something that Lu Huan would rather not do than die.
