Chapter 220 You’re making things difficult for me
The Yan family's scandal spread all over the city that night, which was all expected by the Yan family.
I couldn't cover it up, so I simply didn't plan to cover it up.
After all, in the past few years, there have been more than one or two waves of attacks on the Yan family?
To put it bluntly, they have seen a lot of wind and rain from top to bottom.
What is this?
It's just embarrassing, and it won't hurt their roots. As long as their power, status, glory and wealth are not affected, they can spit whatever they want.
But after listening to it for several days, Mrs. Yan gradually became unable to sit still.
After dinner, the couple sat on the couch drinking tea, and she asked: "Have you heard the noise on the streets these days?"
Yan Shu didn't go out these days to avoid the limelight. He only ordered people to deliver the official business at hand. Hearing this, he said: "What?"
Mrs. Yan put down the cup: "For some reason, in the past two days, in addition to still holding on to our Yan family, half of the people on the streets were sympathizing with the suffering Miss Lu family, and the other half were talking about being implicated by innocent people. "Lu Lanchu"
After returning home that day, she arrested Yan Qu and carefully verified Jiang's words inside and out. The result was that she was really afraid of what she was saying, and Jiang didn't even make nonsense!
Yan Qu built two houses outside one after another, and he has maintained the outer house for several years!
Moreover, the two bastards confessed in unison that he was really not good at that!
Of course, Mrs. Yan couldn't believe one side of the story, and asked her husband to personally verify it. Until the reply said that it was indeed the case, she gave up completely.
She gave birth to two sons! One of them cannot have children. What is the difference between this and just giving birth to a son? !
But the reality couldn't tolerate how sad she was. The rumors outside were too strong. Yan Qu's matter had come to an end. She had no other choice but to hide the news, even from the rest of the family. She would never let it go. As soon as the slightest rumor spreads, he quickly freed up his mind to deal with the overall situation.
Yan Shu was still flipping through the files in his hand, and when he heard this, he raised his head: "How did you discuss it?"
Mrs. Yan propped her elbows on the table: "Public opinion in the capital is on the side of the Lu family!
"They say that Lu Lanchu was tricked by us. Not only did we make an adulterous daughter his wife, but he was also implicated in such a big loss!
"He also said how pitiful Sister Jia was, how weak she was, and how she couldn't help but live under her stepmother.
"That's all. In this matter, this girl did suffer some losses.
"What matters is Lanchu.
"Although he happily agreed to marry Sister Ying that night, Sister Jia also had to go to the Shen family, but he did not relent.
"What I'm worried about is whether Lu Lan will be even more shaken when he hears this."
Yan Shu paused for a moment, then raised his head thoughtfully: "This is quite possible. From beginning to end that night, he really gave us too much face, and there was almost no question."
Having said this, he put the files together and said, "I will go to the Lu family tomorrow."
At noon the next day, Yan Shu went out in a sedan.
He first had people carry him around the city twice, where he listened to a few gossips, and then went to the Lu Mansion.
When getting off the sedan chair, Yang Bonong came out to greet him.
"Sir Yan, I'm here to welcome you. Please forgive me for not being able to welcome you from afar!"
Yan Shu kindly returned the favor and said, "It's been a long time since I last saw Bonon. You've lost a lot of money."
Yang Bonong made a sound: "My lord has never gone out, but at the end of the year there are many affairs in the yamen, as you know. Now our lord's official duties are the top priority, and I have to take on the errands." , no, take advantage of While my master was taking a nap, I went to the warehouse to pick up some things, but I was delayed in welcoming you!" Yan Shu's eyes flashed slightly, and he followed him into the Nuan Pavilion where the smoke cage was lit: "So Lan Chu is inconvenienced at the moment. Meeting guests?”
Yang Bonong's expression remained unchanged, his heart not beating: "It's inconvenient to see other people, but who are you? My lord, please come in for tea first, and I'll go and tell my lord to come out."
After speaking, he welcomed him into the house diligently, then served him tea, and then quickly went to the study.
Lu Jie was looking at the accounts approved by Lu Jia since he had been in charge of the Central Committee for the past few days.
Even though she has been away from home for many years, her handwriting is still very good.
He nodded while looking, and nodded in response to Uncle Yang's words: "What sedan are you riding in? What clothes are you wearing? What are you holding in your hand?"
Yang Bonong replied one by one: "A very ordinary blue woolen sedan, wearing ordinary clothes, holding the wine from Zuixianlou that adults like to eat."
As he said this, he glanced outside and said, "If you keep asking me any more questions, I'll finish the cup of tea."
Lu Jie then slowly put down his account and went to Nuan Pavilion.
"Baekhyun!" He stepped through the door, arched his hands from a distance, and instantly quickened his pace: "I just took a nap, I really kept you waiting for a long time!"
Yan Shu stood up with a smile: "I shouldn't disturb your dreams."
After some humility, both parties sat down.
Yan Shu put the wine on the table: "It's snowing tonight, so I specially brought wine and came here to have a meal."
Lu Jie said with a smile: "You are really becoming more and more alienated. What are you talking about? You were not like this before."
"Things are not what they used to be. Now even the saliva from outside is almost drowning the Yan family."
"The old disciples of Ge are all over the world, and they are already big and deep-rooted in the court. Small disturbances are not worth mentioning."
Lu Jie took a sip of tea.
"You're right," Yan Shu nodded, "Father, in the past many years, he has helped more than hundreds of descendants. He has devoted himself to the emperor and the country. It is said that he has done hard work without any credit for the people of the world, but I just walked around outside. However, everyone is criticizing my Yan family.
"If this continues, this trend will inevitably be taken advantage of by some people lurking underwater."
When Yan Shu said this, his eyes were already deep: "I came to you to discuss something last time. I wonder how you have considered it?"
Lu Jie looked at the wine jars on the table, slowly gathered his expression, separated out a jar and pushed it over: "Sister Ying and Brother Qu will get married in the next year. You should have made preparations for your wedding, right? Although the wine is good, , It’s always useless to be greedy. According to me, one jar is enough.”
Yan Shu's eyes settled on his face, then moved down to the wine jar, and then to his smooth clothes.
He laughed and pushed the jar of wine over again: "Your sister-in-law and I saw the child Jiajia that day, and we were very happy.
"When she gets married in the future, we will also do our best to protect her as elders.
"It's time for her to discuss marriage. I don't know what's missing in the dowry. Why don't you tell me about it?
"Two jars of wine are not much. We discussed it while drinking. Once we have the result, I will prepare everything for her later."
Lu Jie glanced at the two jars of wine placed side by side and said slowly: "What she lacks most is someone to protect her life. I wonder if Baekhyun has a good idea?"
