Big businessman and little fisherman

Chapter 215 Rewards
In the spring of the sixth year of the Great Shang Dynasty, the Lantern Festival of Ningyuan Hou's Mansion made a mistake, and the hereditary title was downgraded to hereditary.

Song Dazhuang, Marquis of Ningyuan, guarded the border and was not allowed to enter Beijing without summons.

This punishment, whether it is light or not, is indeed not severe compared with the incident on the [-]th day.

Officials of all sizes in Beijing and China, who were involved in this matter, were all shocked.

The only thing that people can't understand is that in this incident, the Yongyi Hou's House, which is in the same spirit as the Ningyuan Hou's House, was reprimanded by the emperor without pain.

Everyone knows that the brave Second Young Master Song is deeply loved by His Majesty today. Even if his arm is broken, His Majesty would not have the heart to dismiss him.Asked if he needed to change places, Song Yunfei said that he liked Habayashi Wei very much, even if he had a small idle job in Habayashi Wei.

The second son of the Yongyihou Mansion, Song Yunfei, the commander of the Habayashi Guard, was seriously injured after chasing and killing the remnants.

It doesn't matter if Song Yunfei was blessed by misfortune, or Song Yunfei was favored by the emperor.

Anyway, the courageous Houfu is the holy family.

That night, the Lu family stayed in the Jixiang Building for one night, and only Chunhua and Qiushi were allowed to go back.

Only Chen Xiaohu was left at home to guard the door. Lu Yangge always felt a vague sense of uneasiness when thinking about what happened tonight.

In the evening, the entire capital was under martial law. Chunhua and Qiushi returned to the Lu residence all the way, and were interrogated four or five times on the way.

When they got home, they saw that the door was closed and Chen Xiaohu was not at home.

Lu Yangge didn't know that Chen Xiaohu had disappeared until he returned home at Chenshi the next day.

"Missing?" Lu Yange looked at the concierge with his head.

The concierge of the Lu family lived in the inverted room at the gate. There were three long and thin rooms, one for guests and two for people.

Chen Xiaohu was a latecomer and lived alone in the innermost room.

Chunhua opened the door, and Lu Yange went in and walked around.

A bed, a table, a chair, and a low cabinet for clothes. Fortunately, the room is not big, and it has everything you need, and it doesn't look shabby.

"His clothes and items are all there, but he is missing." Chen Xiaohu was brought back by the Fourth Young Master, Chunhua didn't dare to say more.

Lu Yange looked around and said, "That means he has something to leave. Don't move his things for now. If he comes back, let it go. If he doesn't come back, we'll talk about it later."

Chunhua responded: "Yes."

But he was muttering in his heart, this Chen Xiaohu didn't know where he came from, people came and disappeared for no reason, and the Fourth Young Master didn't care at all.

But he knew his identity, he said what he should say, and he didn't dare to ask more questions.

Lu Yange only stood in Chen Xiaohu's room, and when she returned to the main room, Lu Xiaoyu immediately asked, "Did that Chen Xiaohu leave?"

Lu Yange nodded: "Yeah."

Lu Quan immediately said: "Then let your mother see if there is anything missing in the house."

"Father, no need, Chen Xiaohu is not that kind of person." After thinking about it for a while, Lu Yange adjusted his tone, "It's okay to let mother see."

She believed in Chen Xiaohu, but the Lu family didn't know Chen Xiaohu's identity, so there was nothing wrong with taking a look.

"Since you said you're not that kind of person, then there's nothing to see." Lu Quan didn't care to gather the jacket on his body, "I'll go to the backyard to have a look, you stay in the house, if you want to eat, let Damn it, just don't go out."

Hearing Lu Quan say to go to the backyard, Lu Yange got up suddenly: "Father, it seems to be snowing heavily in the evening, you can help mother carry some firewood and put it in the kitchen. I will go to the backyard later."

"Can there be snow at night in this weather?" Lu Quan looked at the clear sky and frowned suspiciously, but he didn't say any more about going to the backyard, and turned to the firewood pile to hold firewood.

The firewood chopped by Chunhua and Qiushi was piled up behind the stove and neatly bundled.

All firewood in the capital costs money, six cents a load, and is picked up by porters in the countryside or nearby.

It is said to be a load, but it is only two bundles, and the branches are not real.

Years ago, the Lu family spent [-] Wen on firewood, and half of the New Year's croquettes and pig's heads had gone down.

Lu Quan felt distressed, thinking that after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, he would ask Shang Qiu to go to the mountain to have a look.

There are many mountains in the capital, and there are always weeds and weeds on the mountains. Wouldn't it save money to cut some back?

Lu Yangge didn't know what Lu Quan was thinking, but he knew she wouldn't stop her.

Individuals have their own way of life, and the Lu family has money, but for Lu Quan and Qiu, there is nothing wrong with spending what should be spent and what can be saved.

Passing through the second room, there is a small yard between the back room and the main room. It was developed by Lu Quan and Qiu, and a few small vegetable gardens were organized along the base of the wall.

The back cover room is a row of houses, and square bricks are built in front of the door. Although no one lives there, it is cleaned very cleanly, and there is not even a gray mark on it.

The back room was originally reserved for the servants of the family, the Lu family is not a big family, even Chen Xiaohu only three kids live in the front room, the back room has been vacant all the time.

Only Mrs. Qiu would bring Lu Xiaoyu and Ms. Lu Qingluan over from time to time to clean up, although it was empty, it was not dirty or messy.

Lu Yange walked along the corridor eaves of the back room all the way to the back door in the northwest corner.

Open the back door, there is an alley where carriages can pass, go out from here to the east, and after two or three houses, you will arrive at the house of shopkeeper Li.

Walking westward for less than a hundred meters, you can see the city wall.

Lu Yangge stood at the back door and looked east.The whole alleyway is very quiet, every house is closed, and before, you could hear dogs barking or children crying, but now there is no sound, and there is no movement at all.

Looking west, you can see the road beside the city wall, and there are faintly carried soldiers passing by. They are the servants who went to the remnants before the search.

Lu Yange looked down at the threshold of the backyard. No one had left for a long time, and there was a shallow inward-facing footprint outside the threshold.

Someone must have walked through this back door in these two days.

Lu Yange closed the door cautiously, when he heard a slight movement in the room near the back door.

"Who?"

Lu Yange stepped forward and pushed open the door, only to see a bamboo basket placed in the corner of the empty room.

The bamboo basket was covered with thick straw, and in the straw lay a black puppy, completely black without any stray hairs.

Lu Yange picked up the puppy and looked at it.

It was a black male dog. My uncle had raised a big black dog, and he often took him up the mountain to hunt. She and brother Xiao Hu liked that big black dog very much.

The little black dog's nose was wet, and he wasn't afraid of being lifted up by Lu Yange, he groaned and licked her hand.

Withdrawing his hand, Lu Yange realized that there was still a string of golden lilacs tied to the side of the basket, and the pearls stringed on it had turned slightly yellow.

Isn't this the golden lilac she used to wear on her head when she was a child?

They were originally a pair, but she only had one when she arrived at Lu's house, and the other one probably lost on the road and was picked up by Xiaohu.

This golden lilac was bought by the elder brother, the second brother, and the little tiger brother. It was her fourth birthday present.She liked it since she was a child, and she wore it from the age of five to nine, until the family broke up and died, and she also dressed it up as a boy. This pair of golden lilacs has almost been forgotten by her.

Brother Xiaohu didn't leave a word when he left, only a little black dog and a bunch of golden lilacs.

Does he know that he will never come back?
