Chen Wenjie had two people by his side. One was Yang Luchan's own disciple, and the other was Su Qiao 'er from the Magic Phone Plane.
Chen Wenjie never expected that Yang Luchan and Su Qiao 'er would get together. In fact, this was inevitable. After all, Yang Luchan and Su Qiao' er had always been alone in the valley space. A man and a woman, they naturally became familiar with each other.
Chen Wenjie was also happy for Yang Luchan and Su Qiao 'er. After all, Su Qiao' er was quite pitiful. Yang Luchan liking her was also a kind of happiness for her.
To be honest, Chen Wenjie had always felt a little sorry for Yang Luchan. After all, he was the one who snatched Chen Yuniang away from Yang Luchan. Now, he was together with Su Qiao 'er. It could be considered as Chen Wenjie's compensation to him.
This was also not bad. In the future, Yang Luchan would fight, and Su Qiao 'er would serve tea and serve people. Was Chen Wenjie considered corrupt?
For the entire night, Chen Wenjie and the others did not return to Pei County. Instead, they stayed outside the city. As for sleeping, the three of them went to the valley space.
The next morning, Chen Wenjie brought Yang Luchan and Su Qiao 'er to Pei County.
As soon as they entered Pei County, Chen Wenjie realized that Pei County was different from yesterday. A group of people were surrounding the city gate as if they were watching something interesting.
"Uncle, what happened?" Chen Wenjie didn't recognize the seal script of the Qin Dynasty, so he naturally didn't know what was written on the notice.
He opened his mouth under his nose. If he didn't know, he would ask!
The old man's answer finally confirmed Chen Wenjie's guess. Someone had died in Fan Kuai's dog meat shop, and that person was Liu Bang. Although Liu Bang was a hooligan who cheated for food and drinks, he was still the chief of Pei County. The county magistrate naturally sentenced Fan Kuai to death and would behead him at three quarters in the afternoon.
Chen Wenjie brought Yang Luchan straight into the city. He had met Lu Gong and had ideas about his two daughters. Naturally, he had to go around more. Moreover, he would have to trouble Lu Gong to help save Fan Kuai.
Unfortunately, when Chen Wenjie arrived at the Lu family's residence, there was already a large group of people gathered at the door. They were all here to visit Master Lu.
" Old man, we are all famous people in Pei County. We have heard of Lord Lu's reputation and admire him greatly. Today, we heard that Lord Lu has come to Pei County. We are here because of his fame and just want to see his elegant demeanor. Please inform us," said a white-robed young master whose name was unknown.
"I wonder if Xiao He is among them?”Chen Wenjie secretly guessed. One had to know that Xiao He was from Pei County. When he was young, he was the duty officer of Pei County. He was the main official in charge of some affairs in the county.
"Sigh." The old man guarding Lu Gong's house sighed."My Lu Gong is tired from the journey and is not feeling well. He won't be seeing any guests today. I'm really sorry!"”
As he spoke, the old man kept cupping his hands in apology. After the person came, he sighed and turned around to leave.
" Uncle, please inform Master Lu that Chen Wenjie wishes to see you," Chen Wenjie said to the old man guarding the door after everyone left.
" Mr. Lu is not feeling well. He won't be seeing any guests today." The old man still rejected Chen Wenjie.
"Are Miss Lu Zhi and Miss Lu Su here?"Please tell them that Chen Wenjie is here." Chen Wenjie could only turn his attention to Lu Gong's two daughters.
" What's wrong with you? If you don't want to meet Master Lu, why do you want to see my lady?" the old man said unhappily. He was already being polite by not kicking Chen Wenjie out.
Chen Wenjie thought about it and agreed. In ancient times, women valued reputation and integrity very much. It was basically impossible for them to meet men alone.
However, Chen Wenjie wouldn't back down just like that. Instead, he barged in. The old man wanted to stop him, but he was pulled back by Yang Luchan.
Chen Wenjie knew that it was fake that he was not feeling well. The truth was that his family was short of money.
" Mr. Lu," Chen Wenjie greeted him respectfully. After all, he was a famous person in society, so he still needed to be respectful." I heard that you weren't feeling well, so I specially brought some gifts for Mr. Lu."”
" Hello, Miss Zhi 'er." Chen Wenjie greeted Lu Zhi, who was behind Duke Lu.
As he spoke, Chen Wenjie took out a glass bottle filled with tea leaves. There was also a tea set, a teapot, and four teacups. These were all bought by Chen Wenjie in 2010.
Knowing that the era he had transmigrated to was the Qin Dynasty, how could he not bring something to make a fortune? Tea leaves and tea sets were Chen Wenjie's magic weapons to make a fortune.
Chen Wenjie had a lot of these things in his flash space.
The reason why Chen Wenjie wanted to give these things to Duke Lu was firstly to improve their relationship, but also because Chen Wenjie wanted to cooperate with Duke Lu.
A community of interests. Only when they had common interests could they better deepen their relationship. Moreover, the Qin Dynasty valued agriculture and suppressed commerce. The status of merchants was very low, and their property would be confiscated easily. However, Duke Lu was different. He was a famous social celebrity and was respected by others. No one dared to have any ideas about the Lu family for no reason.
" Oh, what is this?" Lu Gong took it with a smile and played with it lovingly.
"This is a glass cup with tea leaves in it," Chen Wenjie explained."As for these, this is a teapot, which is specially used to make tea. This is a teacup. The tea brewed by the teapot is poured into this cup, and we can hold the teacup and drink tea.”
" Father, Young Master Chen." At this moment, Lu Su also pushed open the door and came in, followed by Yang Luchan and Su Qiao 'er. It turned out that she heard the noise at the door and came out to ask. After knowing that Chen Wenjie had come, she immediately brought Yang Luchan and Su Qiao' er to find Chen Wenjie.
" Hello, Miss Su 'er." Chen Wenjie also greeted Lu Su." Miss Su' er, you came at the right time. Can I trouble you to boil some hot water? Since everyone is here, let's have some tea together."”
Lu Su agreed and ordered the servants to boil water.
Lu Su also loved the things that Chen Wenjie took out and played with them non-stop with Lu Zhi.
" Master Lu, I want to trouble you with something," Chen Wenjie said to Master Lu while he was boiling the water.
"Oh?" Duke Lu asked curiously,"I wonder what kind of trouble Young Master encountered?”
"Do you remember the general I told Duke Lu about?”Chen Wenjie paused for a moment after he finished speaking so as to give Lu Gong time to think." He's in trouble now. I want to ask Lu Gong to help me save him.”
"Young Master, are you talking about Fan Kuai, who will be beheaded at three in the afternoon today?"Duke Lu asked in surprise. Seeing Chen Wenjie nod, Duke Lu said in disbelief," But Fan Kuai is just a dog butcher!”
"So what if he's a dog butcher?" Chen Wenjie smiled faintly."Haven't you heard of this saying, Master Lu? There are many people who kill dogs when they are loyal, but they are scholars when they are unfaithful.”
"Those who are loyal to justice will slaughter dogs, but those who are unfaithful will be scholars." Lu Gong thought for a moment and sighed helplessly."Alright, after I taste the tea you mentioned, I will go to the magistrate to plead for mercy for you. But I have to say in advance that the magistrate may not sell me this old face!"”
Duke Lu sighed again. His reputation was enough, but he knew that it was not enough to rely on his reputation. The key was money, and what the Lu family lacked the most now was money.
Money could make the devil turn the millstone. This saying had existed since ancient times. Money was not omnipotent, but without money, one could not do anything. This saying was true at all times.
"Don't worry, Master Lu." Chen Wenjie smiled and said,"I've already thought about it for you. I'll prepare a tea set like these for you. I believe that with these tea sets and your reputation, it shouldn't be a problem to save a death row prisoner."”
" If that's the case, I'm 80% confident," Duke Lu said confidently.
" Master, the hot water is here." After a while, a servant came in with a kettle.
" Give it to me." Su Qiao 'er took the kettle from the servant.
Su Qiao 'er was extremely familiar with brewing tea. All this while, Su Qiao' er had nothing to do in the valley space. There were two things she liked to do the most. One was to take care of the vegetable garden, and the other was to brew tea. Soon, a pot of fragrant tea was ready.
Su Qiao 'er poured a cup of tea for Lu Gong, Chen Wenjie, Lu Zhi, and Lu Su, who were sitting there. She then gently put down the teapot and refilled it with hot water. The set of movements was gentle and beautiful, giving people a feeling of enjoyment.
Indifference and tranquility made one's mind unconsciously relax and ease.
" Mr. Lu, ladies, please have some tea," Chen Wenjie said as he raised the teacup in front of him.
" When it first entered my mouth, it was bitter. After a while, I felt a faint sweetness. In the end, I didn't feel anything." Lu Gong slowly put down the teacup. Su Qiao 'er then filled everyone's cups one by one." This feeling of no feeling is exactly the feeling of the most feeling, like returning to the ordinary."”
" I didn't expect you to be someone who knows tea," Chen Wenjie said in admiration." Drinking tea, drinking tea, isn't it life? Isn't our life a process from bitter to sweet, from strong to light?"”
" Well said. What a life from bitterness to sweetness, from thick to light." Duke Lu laughed out loud." Young Master, I admire you more and more now. It's a pity." Duke Lu looked at his two daughters as he spoke, which made Lu Zhi and Lu Su confused. Duke Lu asked Chen Wenjie again," Is Young Master's intention still the same?" My two daughters are here. No matter which young master chooses, I will support you with all my strength. Young man, don't be too arrogant.”
"Father!""Father!"
Lu Zhi and Lu Su finally understood the meaning of Duke Lu's words just now, and were very shy and unwilling to speak.
"Master Lu, have you heard of this saying? It's called 'A person who is not in love is not a talented person. A person who is not frivolous and arrogant will waste the youth," Chen Wenjie said with a smile."A man who worries too much will grow old, and a flower will grow old without worries."The old and young don't care, and the poem is drunk in front of the flowers.”
