A Blessed Daughter

Chapter 229: ask for contempt

Chapter 229 Self-defeating

"It's okay, your sister and the others were disturbed by a snake." Madam Tongzhi replied.

Hearing that there was a snake, several young people were eager to try, expressing that they were going to catch the snake and avenge the ladies.

Among them, Lu Yuhong was the most enthusiastic: "Snake soup is delicious. Once you catch it, make it into snake soup!"

It was Lu Yuhong who said this. If it was someone else, it might cause a burst of laughter from everyone.

But Lu Yuhong was different. His status was different, and his status was much higher than that of everyone else present.

Lu Yuhong is not a student of Anzhou College either, he was the one who rose up today and took the initiative to ask to travel with the students of Anzhou College.

Regarding this, everyone in Anzhou College accompanied him very cautiously, for fear of offending him.

When Lu Yuhong was speaking, his eyes fell on Wei Ruo who was on the other side of the fence.

Feeling Lu Yuhong's gaze, Wei Ruo knew that the greedy young master of the Lu family had already set his sights on her.

Wei Ruo didn't believe that the matter was really about a snake, Xu Yaojun and Wei Qingwan's reactions were not quite right.

It's just that the two concealed the truth for their own purposes.

Then I saw several young masters leaving the door excitedly, inspecting the surroundings of the courtyard.

Even if you cant find the snake, cleaning up the surrounding area can make the female relatives who are out for an outing today feel more at ease.

Wei Qingwan followed suit and returned to her original seat.

Wei Ruo was still drinking tea and eating cakes in a leisurely manner, and did not try to expose Wei Qingwan's lie just now.

On the contrary, Wei Qingwan didn't know whether it was a guilty conscience or something, she kept looking at Wei Ruo, always feeling that Wei Ruo's expression seemed to know something.

When Mrs. Yun got up and went to talk to Mrs. Tongzhi and the others, Wei Qingwan took the initiative to ask Wei Ruo: "Sister, do you believe that I have encountered a snake?"

Wei Ruo paused for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth raised involuntarily: "If you met a snake, why didn't you run out together, but they came out first, and you were so much later than them."

She didn't want to deliberately expose Wei Qingwan, but she insisted on asking her, so she had no choice but to say so.

"I'm timid. When I saw a snake, I was frightened, and my legs were weak and I couldn't walk." Wei Qingwan explained.

"Then what happened to your sleeve? When was it scratched?" Wei Ruo asked.

"This..." Wei Qingwan glanced at the position of her arm, and explained, "It was scratched by a branch in the peach forest."

"It turned out to be a tree branch. I thought you met a villain inside, broke it, and was rescued by a hero." Wei Ruo replied with a smile.

Hearing this, Wei Qingwan's face turned pale, and a frightened look flashed in her eyes.

Wei Ruo was just guessing at first, because in the original plot, Wei Qingwan was rescued once by the hero Chu Lan when she was in Fahua Temple, and the instigator of that time was her, a cannon fodder female partner who doesn't have a lot of brains.

But seeing Wei Qingwan's reaction, he knew that his guess was pretty good.

"My sister can't talk nonsense, it will damage my sister's reputation." Wei Qingwan said with a serious expression, pretending to be calm.

"It's fine if you don't. Didn't you ask me just now? I didn't say a word at first." Wei Ruo said with a light smile.

Seeing Wei Ruo's smile, Wei Qingwan turned pale and bit her lower lip.

Wei Ruo didn't bother to talk to her. Regarding today's incident, the only thing that made her a little curious was that she didn't know which hero was the hero who saved Wei Qingwan.

Is it one of the students from Anju Academy who is resting next door?

Lu Yuhong, Xu Fengyuan, Wei Yichen and several other students from Anzhou College searched around the small courtyard of Xu's house together, and they really caught a snake.

Although they are all students, since riding and shooting are their daily homework, it is not a problem for them to catch a snake together.

Especially among them, Lu Yuhong, is very skillful.

It's just that few people don't know what kind of snake this is and whether it is poisonous.

The question that Lu Yuhong is concerned about is whether this snake can be used to make delicious food.

While thinking about it, Lu Yuhong saw the man in a dark blue brocade suit and a bamboo hat, and immediately ignored the snake in his hand, and bid farewell to Xu Fengyuan and others.

Lu Yuhong ran to the man: "Your Highness, why are you here?"

Lu Yuhong came to Taizhou Mansion because of Chu Lan. After reuniting with Chu Lan, he wanted to be his bodyguard to protect him, and also to avoid his grandfather's discipline.

The weather was fine today, and when he learned that the students of Anzhou Academy were going out to play, he left Chu Lan and went out to play by himself.

He thought that Chu Lan didn't want to go out, so he was surprised to see him appearing here.

"Some things." Chu Lan replied.

"Oh, then be careful, the identities of the people who hurt you have not been found out yet, I'm afraid they will continue to harm you." Lu Yuhong warned.

"Yes. I'm fine." Chu Lan looked in the direction of the courtyard.

Lu Yuhong saw it and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"Nothing." Chu Lan replied.

"Do you want to stay and have a meal with us?" Lu Yuhong asked again.

"No, I still have some things to go to the north of the city." Chu Lan declined.

"Are you going to find that Xu again?" Lu Yuhong asked.

Hearing that Chu Lan didn't deny it, she acquiesced.

Lu Yuhong said: "He saved your life, you should go to thank him, but judging from the situation when you went to him last time, you will most likely be kicked out this time."

Lu Yuhong didn't quite understand why a farm owner with excellent medical skills was so hostile to officials. He didn't know if someone in his family had been harmed by officials.

"What happened to him before has nothing to do with me. I only know that he saved my life, and we got along very happily before. I regard him as my bosom friend." Chu Lan said.

After Chu Lan finished speaking, she ignored the curious Lu Yuhong and rode her horse towards the north of the city.

The followers behind him also rode their horses to keep up.

Lu Yuhong shook his head and sighed: "I really don't understand him, because of a man, those who don't know think that his savior is a beautiful woman! Although the grace of saving life is great, but people don't like to associate with him, so give more money Isn't it all right?"

At noon, everyone ate together in the courtyard, Mrs. Tongzhi specially invited a cook to come and carefully prepared today's meal.

Especially a few wild vegetablescold Malan head, stir-fried shepherd's purse, and fragrant-dried stir-fried water celery. The ingredients used are just picked from nearby.

Wei Ruo ate with relish.

In addition, Mrs. Tongzhi specially invited someone to buy some dishes from Zuixianju. The dishes of Zuixianju are special, which are not found anywhere else. They are delicious and perfect for entertaining guests.
