Chapter 123 If you want to know the truth, go to Dacheng Temple as soon as possible
After walking out of the general's mansion, Lu Yu was still a little dazed, and Lu He suddenly pulled her.
Lu Yu narrowed her eyes when she saw the woman in mourning clothes who almost pounced on her and a group of people chasing after her from a distance.
Such a familiar recipe.
"Please, young lady, save me." The woman in mourning clothes looked back and kowtowed to Lu Yu.
Lu Yu looked down at the woman, with no desire to save or pity in his eyes.
The group of people came closer and tried to grab the woman, but the woman reached out and tried to hold Lu Yu's legs.
Lu He was very perceptive. Seeing her young lady's indifferent face, she grabbed the woman's hand and said, "Young lady, if you have any grievances, you can go to the government office and turn yourself in."
At this time, there were many more people around, and they all stopped to watch the fun.
"Turn herself in? She dares? She cheated our building out of money to bury her father, and now she wants to escape."
A man who was chasing after him spat.
The woman cried and shook her head, "No, I'm not running away, I just want to earn money to pay you back."
The big man and his group laughed out loud, "Give it back to us? You've already sold yourself to us, can you redeem yourself if you want?"
"Are you using our building as a loan office?"
Lu Yu didn't want to listen to their arguing, so he turned around, walked around the woman and left.
When the woman saw this, she immediately panicked and threw herself at Lu Yu. Lu Yu ran out of patience and kicked her away.
"Why, do you feel pitiful?" Lu Yu's cold voice sounded, "Since you chose to sell yourself to bury your father, and you have already sold yourself, how can you regret it after burying your father?"
"You are just destroying the bridge after crossing it. I despise people like you."
"Girl, you have to walk on the path you have chosen, even if you have to kneel down. As for whether you can stand up and walk halfway, it depends on your own ability."
"Don't always dream that you can get someone to help you just by crying and telling them about your troubles."
"If someone is really kind, he must be a fool."
Several idiots in the crowd changed their expressions.
They knew that those big men were from the brothel and didn't want an innocent girl to end up in that place, so they were ready to help her. But then they heard that those who were kind-hearted were fools.
So should I help or not? I am confused!
The woman looked at Lu Yu with disbelief in her eyes, and then burst into loud questioning.
"How can this lady say such a thing? We are both women, so it's fine if we don't help each other, but why do you want to destroy my life?"
Lu Yu bent down with a smile on his face and stretched out his hand to the woman's chin. A hint of shyness appeared on the woman's face, which made Lu Yu feel a chill.
With a movement of his hand, he hooked out a jade pendant hidden inside her clothes around her neck.
The woman was shocked and stood up to snatch the jade pendant back, "Give it back to me, it's the only thing my father left me."
Someone in the crowd voiced discontent, "If you don't want to help, then don't help. Why are you robbing people in broad daylight?"
"That thing should be quite valuable!"
"It must be valuable. Things that are not valuable are not worth stealing."
“Since it’s valuable, why don’t you use it as a jade pendant to save yourself, instead of stopping people from asking for help?”
This sentence made the onlookers confused. Yes! Why?
Lu Yu grabbed the red string that held the jade pendant, which was swinging in the air. "This is made of white jade, enough to buy a hundred slaves."
Having said this, she threw the jade pendant to the woman and left without saying anything.
The woman stood there in a daze, watching Lu Yu's figure disappear, a look of unwillingness flashed across her face.
The thugs from the brothel were about to come up and grab the woman again, but she did not run away. Her expression was no longer as weak and tearful as before, but she looked so cold that she could freeze to death.
The thugs were shocked. They all made a living out of this, and after what happened just now, they finally understood what was going on.
Love is a drama.
They even cooperated with each other without realizing it, which made me a little annoyed when I thought about it.
"Just follow us!" one of the thugs said, "Don't forget that your indenture is still in the hands of our Mama Liu."
The woman glanced in one direction of the crowd, and immediately a young man came over waving a fan in a showy manner.
"Everyone, this girl owes you money, and I helped her pay it back."
The thug laughed and said, "Sir, if you want to redeem this girl, you can go and discuss it with Madam Liu of our Huafu Tower. We can't make the decision."
The showy young man closed his fan, pointed at the men and said, "What do you mean by redemption? This young lady borrowed a lot of money from you, and I will pay it back for her."
The thug explained in a gentle voice, "This gentleman should understand that since she has signed the contract to sell her body, she is a girl in our building. It is impossible to buy her at the original price."
The showy young man looked unhappy. He glanced at the woman, who nodded. Then the showy young man left.
The woman obediently followed the thugs back to Huafu Tower.
After Lu Qingfeng gave the green jade fish sculpture to Lu Yu, he went straight to the study.
Seeing his father carving with his head down, he did not disturb him but just sat down aside.
When Lu Xian looked up, it was already noon.
Seeing Lu Qingfeng, he smiled and asked, "Is there no class in the academy today?"
"I have classes." Lu Qingfeng poured him a glass of water. "My son knew that his second sister would be back today, so he came back specially to see her."
Lu Xian paused while drinking water, surprise flashing in his eyes, "Qingfeng, do you like your second sister?"
"Yeah, I like it."
Lu Xian drank the tea in one gulp, his expression excited, "What a pity, your second sister came and left after a while, but it doesn't matter, Dad will take you to the Duke's Mansion to see her tomorrow."
Lu Xian was really happy. He was really troubled by the endless fight between Xiaoyuer, Jiabao and Yuzhu.
It’s incredible that Qingfeng, Jiabao’s younger brother and Yuzhu’s son, actually likes Xiaoyuer.
Lu Qingfeng smiled and said, "Dad, that's not necessary. I ran into my second sister when she was out and talked to her."
"Really?" Lu Xian asked expectantly, "Then what is your second sister's attitude towards you?"
"My second sister is very good to her son."
Lu Xian breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face, "Okay, okay, that's good."
He kept walking back and forth, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Son, can I send you to live in the Duke's Mansion?"
Lu Qingfeng shook his head, "No need, my son already lives in the academy and doesn't even go home often, so it doesn't matter where he lives."
"How can it be the same? You can develop feelings with your second sister by living in the Duke's Mansion." Lu Xian persuaded.
"There's no need to cultivate a relationship with my second sister. We are siblings, and the bond has existed since birth."
Lu Xian frowned, "But..."
"No buts." Lu Qingfeng looked at Lu Xian and said solemnly, "Dad, my second sister is very clear about gratitude and resentment. My son has never done anything wrong to her, so she doesn't hate me."
"And his son is also his only brother."
Lu Xian was stunned. He had never let her down? His only brother?
He hadn't done anything wrong to her! He was her only father, so why wasn't she that good to him?
"Dad, if you want to know what is going on, you can go to Dacheng Temple to find the answer, but you have to do it as soon as possible."
After saying this, Lu Qingfeng stood up and said, "Son, go see your mother and return to the academy early tomorrow morning."
