Chapter 683 The haze dissipated
Yan Funing glanced at the sky, raised her hand and asked him: "Let's have dinner at the house."
Lu Wenfeng shook his head and stepped outside: "No, I want to Go back and pack your luggage. We have to leave tomorrow."
"Yes." Lu Wenfeng smiled bitterly, "If I can't return to Beijing to take up my post before the next imperial examination. , the palace in Beijing will be taken back by the superiors and awarded to the new Jinshi.”
In terms of time, there are still more than two years.
After that, he cupped his hands and left with Zhang Tong and Tie.
Yan Fu stared at his retreating back and let out a long sigh.
Yan Bojian said: "Sister, there are many Jinshis like him. Besides, if he gets there and does well, he can be promoted year by year."
Yan Funing nodded. He nodded, withdrew his gaze, and headed towards Nanyuan.
——
Night falls.
Lu Wenfeng returned home and told his parents about the situation.
Mother Lu was at a loss: "Your father and I have only been in Beijing for a few days, are we going back now?"
Father Lu complained: "It's all your fault. Beijing officials are hanging around. Speaking of which, who is an official in Beijing is not a Beijing official? Now, your son is no longer a Beijing official.”
"According to your opinion, it was me who broke the news?"
Lu's father ignored his wife and guessed: "Wenfeng, do you think it was Fu Ciyi's fault?"
Lu Wenfeng sighed: "It's because I am not very knowledgeable and it has nothing to do with him."
Mother Lu frowned and regretted: "If we didn't go to the Fu family to make trouble, Wenfeng could still ask Fu Ciyi for a favor. ."
She took her son's arm and walked out: "Let's go talk and agree that Fu Nanyao will marry us!"
It is really inappropriate for a married woman to be a daughter-in-law with bad legs and feet.
But for the sake of my son’s future, I must endure it.
Besides, Fu Nanyao will never say anything about how many beautiful concubines he will give his son in the future because of his own problems.
Lu Wenfeng pulled out his arm: "Mom, if I ask for this, I will only be looked down upon by the Fu family."
Now that Fu Ciyi is not here to add insult to injury, it is already very good.
Father Lu was so angry that he punched the door and said regretfully: "I'm going to visit your cousin. Your mother and I have prepared a lot of gifts and stuffed you with banknotes. I hope he can promote you in the officialdom."
“Dad, you are really confused.” Lu Wenfeng became angrier as he listened.
Lu's mother also regretted: "It was too hot all the way to Beijing, so we walked slowly and spent a lot of money."
Hearing this, Lu Wenfeng learned that his parents wanted to go to Beijing. Beijing Road is cooler and more comfortable, and you spend money lavishly.
The Lu family is considered a well-known family in Ling County, and naturally has no shortage of money.
But the problem now is that when my parents went to visit their cousin, almost all the money they brought was spent.
“Forget it, I have been on duty at the Hanlin Academy for the past few months. Although my monthly salary is not high, I have saved dozens of taels of silver. Let’s live frugally and we can return to Ling County.”
After hearing about Ling County, Father Lu thought of a fatal question: "Wenfeng, you had a bad relationship with Fu Minghe before. This time when you go back, Fu Zhengqing will definitely punish you."
"What else can be done?"
Lu Wenfeng shook his head and went back to his room to pack his bags.
——
Early the next morning, Yan Funing took out a letter and two fifty-tael silver notes.
"Brother Chengwen, Xinheng, help me deliver Lu Wenfeng, give this letter to him."
"The fifty taels of silver notes should be given to Zhang Tong and Zhang Tieren. Zhang, let them protect Lu Wenfeng and prevent Fu Zhengqing from making any evil moves."
Liu Chengwen and Li Xinheng said yes.
When the two arrived at the Lu family with letters and banknotes, the Lu family had already left. They quickly got on their horses and headed straight for the city gate.
Fortunately, the Lu family's carriage was stopped in time outside the city gate.
"Lu Wenfeng, my lady has a letter for you."
Li Xinheng shouted with a loud voice, and Lu Wenfeng immediately got off the carriage.
Father and Mother Lu followed down.
Liu Chengwen took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Lu Wenfeng: "My sister gave it to you. Take a look. If you have anything to say, I will help you convey it."
Lu Wenfeng hands up I took the envelope and found it was quite thick when I pinched it.
"Funing really treats me as a friend, and she wrote so many pages in the letter."
As soon as the words were spoken, all the papers in the envelope were taken out.
I saw that the top piece folded into a long strip was letter paper, and the remaining ones were all banknotes. He unfolded the letter paper with trembling hands, and the handwriting on it was strong and powerful——
Ask the wind and show good faith!
As a friend, I have witnessed every step of your path to the right path. I also know your situation in the Lu family. Although you are the young master, money is tight.
There is a lot of money to spend on your way back home. As a friend, I will lend you some money.
I hope you can return it to me when you come to Beijing and become a high official.
Have hope in your heart and walk in the light. May flowers bloom wherever you go.
You Funing’s book.
After reading the letter, Lu Wenfeng could no longer control himself, squatting on the ground and crying.
Like a child.
Father Lu and mother Lu hurriedly went to pull their son.
Unable to pull her son away, she saw the letter and banknotes in her son's hand.
Mother Lu took away the banknotes, counted them, and said to her husband, "There are one thousand taels!"
Lu Wenfeng cried louder and louder: "Funing is my true friend! ”
In order not to hurt his self-esteem, I specifically said that the bank note was lent to him.
He also knew that Funing would be with Fu Ciyi, and Fu Nanyao would still be her sister-in-law from now on.
On the one hand, she is Fu Nanyao's sister-in-law, and on the other hand, she is his friend. Regarding the matter between him and Nan Yao, the letter did not mention a word, which also gave him great face.
Not only that, she also encouraged him.
Only true friends can be so encouraging.
Lu Wenfeng stood up and wiped away tears, took back the banknotes that his mother had taken away, and said to Liu Chengwen and Li Xinheng, "Thank you for your help. I will work harder in the future."
< br>Liu Chengwen and Li Xinheng nodded.
Zhang Tong and Zhang Tie got out of the driving seat.
"We brothers envy you to be by your side." Zhang Tiedao.
"We are leaving Beijing this time. There are many cunning people in Beijing. I hope you can protect the young lady." Zhang Tong also said.
“With your words, it’s not in vain that my lady misses you.”
Li Xinheng took out two banknotes and gave one to each of them.
"My lady gave this to you. She said that Fu Zhengqing might be planning some dirty tricks, and she wants you to protect Lord Lu as much as possible."
Since following Lu Wenfeng, Zhang Tong and Zhang Tie have not Got so much money.
I was shocked when I received the banknote.
In just a moment, the two strong men shed tears.
"Miss will not forget us."
The burly body choked with tears.
Liu Chengwen and Li Xinheng frowned.
Even Lu Wenfeng forgot to cry again, and sneered: "Stop crying!"
It was okay that he didn't speak, but when he spoke, Zhang Tong and Zhang Tie turned to the left. Hold his shoulder with your right hand. The heads of the three people were gathered together, with the intention of crying again.
Lu Wenfeng used all his strength to push them away with difficulty: "Let's go, let's go."
People were coming and going at the city gate.
Almost everyone looked at them sideways.
Someone shouted: "It's so shameful for a grown man to cry like this."
Zhang Tong immediately stopped crying and stuffed the banknotes into his arms: "We are so happy!"
Not long after, the Lu family got on the carriage.
Lu Wenfeng put his head at the window and waved goodbye to Liu Chengwen and Li Xinheng.
Seeing the car getting further and further away from the gate of the capital, he felt fulfilled.
The haze that started yesterday has dissipated now.
