Chapter 55 Does gambling make sense?

Lu Wenqian just thought about it casually and felt that it was impossible for a woman like him to escape.

First, her adoptive mother was still in the old house;

Besides, I didn't treat her badly, and I gave her such a large sum of money every month for expenses, this treatment is probably not as good as that of the queen in the palace.

Who else but herself could indulge her like this? She had no reason to run away.

Moreover, the Lu family had many eyes and ears, and without a letter of divorce or reconciliation, she would have no place to stay even if she fled to the ends of the earth.

"Could it be that Yan Chao's nephew took the opportunity to kidnap the second sister-in-law?"

Lu Wenjing asked quickly.

Thinking of the relationship between the second sister-in-law and Lu Yanchao in daily life, he first thought of this place.

"It must be so, it must be so."

Jiang Yunqing hurriedly agreed: "I'll ask Yan Chao now."

As soon as he moved forward, Lu Wenqian shouted: "Nonsense."

My nephew is not a fool.

If he was just coveting the beauty of the Shen family daughter, he would never do such a dirty thing. After all, it would damage his reputation and even lead to a lawsuit.

If it were for other reasons, the only thing that made the Shen daughter worth his risk was the "Lanhua Medical Classic".

But the medical classic in this woman's hand had long been deceived by Lu Yanchao.

Right now, Lu Chenshi has nothing to make him take such a risk.

Lu Wenqian thought for a while, and suddenly became alert.

Ever since Lu Chenshi went to the Xuandu Temple, he has become weird all day long, playing tricks like driving a paper crane and playing with paper talismans.

She's been talking about that Taoist temple recently, presumably she sneaked away to Xuandu Temple.

"No need to look for it, she will come back by herself."

Throwing out a few words in a calm tone, Lu Wenqian pushed the wheelchair back to the house calmly and slowly.

"What is the relationship between your uncle and miss now?"

Lu Wenjing looked at Keyan in confusion, with a confused look on his face.

Ke Yan was also at a loss, unable to figure out what my uncle was thinking.

It can be said that he cherishes his young lady, but he is not worried at all when his wife disappears.

But if you say that he is indifferent and unfeeling, he just indulges the young lady like this, telling everyone how loving they are.

I really don’t understand it.

When several people were at a loss what to do, a servant suddenly rushed in from outside the courtyard, panting and shouting: "No, Sanniang ran to Young Master Yanchao's courtyard to argue, and brought many people with her, and a fight was about to begin. ”

When Jiang Yun heard this, he frowned and hurriedly ran to the Li Rong courtyard.

Lu Wenjing asked Ji Zhen and Ke Yan to take care of his elder brother, and he also followed.

Arriving in the Deli banyan courtyard, he saw Lu Junwan and Tang Youning scolding Zheng Huan tit for tat.

"Auntie, did you take the wrong medicine in the middle of the day? Second Aunt disappeared and you didn't go to look for Second Uncle, but instead came to Lirong Garden to inquire about the crime."

Tang Youning reprimanded in a delicate voice.

"Taking a step back, Second Aunt went to the casino to gamble and lose money from the Xiyuan Bank. It doesn't matter to my officials. Why should he take the risk of offending Second Uncle to do such thankless things?" thing."

"Is he still afraid of offending your second uncle?"

Lu Junwan looked in the direction of the room with dissatisfaction: "Go in and ask Brother Yanchao, whom you miss so much, what did your second uncle do to your second aunt when he was unconscious?"

"What can he do?"

Tang Youning gritted her teeth.

Although I have heard some gossip these days, the official was planning to force his sister to sign a contract of sale and become a concubine in the woodshed that day, but this was just to humiliate her and stop her from venting his anger on his sedan chair.

Lu Junwan was too lazy to pay attention to this mindless little concubine, and shouted directly into the room: "Yan Chao, get out of here. You have done evil things and you don't dare to admit it. What kind of man are you?"

In the inner hall, Lu Yanchao had been sipping the new winter tea calmly, while Ji Ping on the side was sweating coldly hearing the noise outside.

After what happened with Zhang Sheng, Lu Yanchao has learned to be good now, and he didn't want to pay attention to his aunt, but what she said became more and more ugly, so he finally got up and walked out after holding back for a long time.

"Auntie, don't mess around, I have nothing to do by robbing Second Aunt."

Lu Yanchao turned his head and glanced at the little wife next to him, and snorted coldly: "Could it be that I, Lu Yanchao, lack women by my side?"

"In that case, why did you force your second aunt to sign a contract of sale?"

Lu Junwan sneered disapprovingly.

"I"

Seeing the little son-in-law and fourth uncle rushing over, Lu Yan showed embarrassment on his face.

The pain in my heart is really unspeakable.

He has always thought about Shen Zhiyi's good looks, but that day he just thought that Lu Wenqian was dead and Shen Zhiyi would die, so he wanted to take her into his pocket.

Now that Lu Wenqian is alive and well, he will not make things difficult for Lu Wenqian because of a woman.

Tang Youning also wanted to know his real thoughts, so he hesitated and asked, "Brother Yan Chao, you asked Second Aunt to sign the deed of sale just to complain about my grievances, right?"

"Of course it is."

Lu Yanchao pursed his lips tightly and clenched his fists.

The woman used to wish she could meet her every day, but now she didn't even want to look at her again, her heart was full of hatred.

Lu Wenqian could allocate her 10 taels of silver every month. How could he, the dignified head of the Lu family, not be able to satisfy her desires?
The more he thought about it, the more angry he felt.

"The second aunt is an elder, and a nephew shouldn't say too much, but she has no respect for herself at all. She blocked You Ning's sedan chair in front of everyone and embarrassed her. As You Ning's husband, I can't just watch. The lady is wronged."

Lu Yanchao's eyebrows darkened and he said bitterly: "Now she has gone even worse and made the whole house full of smoke and smoke. What a shame?"

"Ahem, Yanchao, I have to be fair about this. Your second aunt is a bit overbearing, but it seems that the mess in the house is not caused by your second aunt. I'm afraid she is not that capable."

Jiang Yun smiled complacently and said: "If you want to talk about her gambling, I suddenly feel that your second aunt is not completely out of her mind. She coaxed that Eunuch Liu to be happy all day long. Ask yourself, Liu Zhizao You have been in Yanyang City for quite some time, but have you ever found any trouble for our Lu family?"

"Brother-in-law, if you say that, I really think that's the case."

Lu Wenjing echoed as if waking up from a dream.

In the past two years, the internal chaos of the Lu family has become more and more chaotic, especially after the second elder brother fell ill this year, the business in various places has more or less slackened. A lot of problems come.

Could this be the real reason why the second brother let the second sister-in-law go to gamble?

Thinking of this, Lu Wenjing couldn't help complimenting his second brother's foresight, feeling that he was too superficial.

"You... What kind of nonsense are you all?"

Tang Youning was very angry: "Is it reasonable to gamble?"

It was obviously the vixen who had violated the family rules, but this group of people spoke of it in such a high-sounding way, making it sound like they had wronged the vixen.

"Well, anyway, brother himself doesn't take it to heart. Why should we keep arguing? Didn't You Ning just say that what the second sister-in-law lost was the money from Xiyuan Bank?"

Jiang Yunqing waved his hands carelessly, and dragged Lu Junwan to leave.

Although he said he was being rude, in his heart he was still grateful to the woman for speaking kindly to his wife and giving him a tael of silver per month.

Now three taels of silver a month, but a lot of money.

More importantly, the second sister-in-law has monthly expenses of 10 taels of silver, and even a little alms from the gap between her teeth is enough to make her happy for a while.

They are also living under other people's roofs, and at such a critical time, they still have to turn to the second sister-in-law.

Maybe one day she would lose 10 taels to herself when she was happy.

Lu Wenjing saw that the third sister was unwilling to let it go, and hurriedly whispered in her ear:

"I'm afraid that the second brother knows the whereabouts of the second sister-in-law. Let's go back first, so as not to disturb the sister-in-law and have to tear it up again. I heard that the palace specially sent someone to reward the sister-in-law this time."

Lu Junwan was not afraid of Hua Wanxin, but it was important to find her second sister-in-law right now, and she didn't want to cause trouble to her second brother, so she followed a few people out the door.

Tang Youning was so angry that her teeth itched, and she cried and felt wronged when she returned to the house, thinking that everyone in this family was seriously ill.

Lu Yanchao was very calm, only thinking about where the woman went.
