Rejuvenation of the Han Dynasty in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 118

At noon, the entrance of Lu's house was full of large vehicles and many people were busy moving furniture in and out.

At this moment, a carriage approached from far to near. It turned out that Mrs. Zhang came back from offering incense. When she got off the carriage, she was also stunned. She asked Lu Feng at the door: "Are you moving?"

Lu Feng had no choice but to bite the bullet and smiled: "Madam, it's about changing furniture. The young master and uncle plan to sell all these old furniture."

"Sold all?" Mrs. Zhang frowned slightly, and saw a table table in the car, "This is the desk table in the main room, are you also sold?"

Lu Feng rubbed his hands, he didn't know how to explain, so he had to say: "Young Master and the others are still in the courtyard, Madam will know after asking."

"Mother, what's the matter?" Lu Yue hugged Lu Yu, who was under one year old, and got off the carriage.

Mrs. Zhang tightened her shawl and said with a smile, "It's Liu He who is here. You take the child to rest in the backyard. I'll go and have a look."

Lu Yueqiao blushed slightly, remembering the scene in the temple where Mrs. Zhang prayed for her to give birth to a son, and it was even worse to see Liu He, so she turned to the backyard from the side door.

"Look, one spittoon used by Mr. Lu, five hundred dollars!"

"I want it!"

"I'll pay eight hundred dollars!"

"One brush used by Mr. Lu costs one hundred dollars!"

"One chamber pot used by Mr. Lu, two hundred dollars!"

"Mr. Lu used one Gong bucket, this... is also two hundred dollars!"

……

When Mrs. Zhang walked into the courtyard, her expression suddenly changed. She looked at the noisy group of people, many of whom were still scrambling for things. Even the servants at home clapped their hands and applauded.

Is this a temple fair?

Mrs. Zhang saw that everyone was so busy, she was surprised and said: "This...is this a new one or a copy of the house?"

Lu Feng hurriedly said: "It's Chinese New Year, Madam must not say such unlucky words, my uncle said, I will replace the new furniture in the afternoon, and it is guaranteed to be better than the original one."

Mrs. Zhang murmured: "Master has been reluctant to change several items, what should I do?"

At this time, each family has already delivered [-]% of the deposit, and if it is not enough, it will be made up tomorrow or it will be converted into food. Lu Jun is busy counting the money, when he looked up and saw Mrs. Zhang, his hand trembled, and the five baht money was thrown away. land.

Mrs. Zhang pushed away the servants, and hurried over to grab Lu Jun: "Ziqing, what are you doing? Does your father know?"

Lu Jun looked at Liu He in panic, Liu He could only say, "Don't worry, Auntie, I told Uncle Shi this morning, these furniture will be replaced with new ones immediately."

Lu Jun curled his lips secretly, what you said in the morning is not like that.

Mrs. Zhang said anxiously: "But some of these furniture are left over from our ancestors, and I have been reluctant to change them all the time! What's more, it will cost a lot to replace them all. Your uncle has been demoted, and the family's money and food are still trying to help the victims. It's such a mess." He will be angry if he spends money."

Liu He said with a smile: "These furniture are too old and useless. I will wait for the new furniture I ordered to be delivered first. After the wedding is completed, I plan to change the other furniture, and I promise not to ask my uncle to pay for it." !"

"Oh, you child!" Mrs. Zhang sighed softly, looking at Liu He, not knowing what to say.

She was very satisfied with Liu Heben. As the saying goes, the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, and the more she looks at her son-in-law, the more she likes him. After meeting her in Zhuo County, she likes him even more. I was still uneasy.

Liu He comforted her and said, "Don't worry, Auntie. When the new furniture arrives, I will guarantee that Uncle is satisfied. It is very likely that he will take the initiative to ask for other furniture to be replaced!"

"Really?" Mrs. Zhang was dubious.

Liu He nodded and said: "I have already asked someone to prepare it. When these furniture are moved away, new ones will be delivered immediately. Auntie will know immediately."

Only then did Mrs. Zhang feel relieved, and said: "You send someone to set it up as soon as possible. If your uncle is not satisfied, we can persuade him."

"I'll go and have a look now!" Liu He nodded, telling the storekeepers to remove the furniture as soon as possible, and took Gao Cheng back to the Dukang Pavilion in person.

In the factory, Gao Xing was urging several people to load the car. Originally, the furniture from the Lu family was scheduled to be delivered the day after tomorrow, but Liu He suddenly moved ahead of time. The vehicle was not prepared enough, and Gao Xing sent someone to borrow the car again, which was delayed for half a day.

Liu He was worried that Lu Zhi would come back early, so he asked them to quickly transport the Eight Immortals table, sofa and study desk in the guest room, and put the rest behind.

When he was loading the car, he saw Lu Feng running in a hurry, sweating profusely and tremblingly said: "Your Majesty, something is wrong, my lord... he is angry."

"Don't panic, speak slowly if you have something to say," Liu He comforted Lu Feng, brought him a cup of tea, and asked, "Mr. Lu is back so soon?"

Lu Feng wiped his sweat and was panting: "I went to the restaurant for dinner in the morning, said the wine there was not good, so I took the guests home, but the result..."

Liu He's heart sank, thinking that Lu Zhi took the guests home and saw the empty house, unable to entertain the guests. This is a very embarrassing thing, and it will not end well.

Gao Cheng also became nervous: "My lord, what should I do?"

"Don't panic when things happen! To make Mount Tai collapse before your eyes, like me..." Liu He patted himself on the chest, as if to cheer himself up, and turned to ask Lu Feng, "What's going on at home now? "

"Second Young Master was imprisoned in the woodshed," Lu Feng swallowed. "After the guests left, the master became furious and scolded me. It was my wife who asked me to report the news secretly."

Liu He took a deep breath: "Don't worry, my furniture is ready, and I will send it to Shibo right away. I will personally ask for an explanation, and I won't implicate you and be punished."

"Punishment for the villain is the second priority!" Lu Feng said with a sad face, "The master scolded you for being useless, and you want to divorce the engagement, and I am asking people to pack up the dowry and return it..."

"What?" Liu He was shocked, and the tea bowl in his hand fell to the ground and shattered.

He didn't expect Lu Zhi to be so generous, Mount Tai didn't collapse, but the old Mount Tai will really collapse in the future!

Gao Cheng also panicked: "My lord, hurry to find the master!"

"No, no, no, don't panic, don't panic!" Liu He stopped Gao Cheng, calmed down, walked around the ground a few times, and ordered: "Immediately ask Gao Gao to send the Eight Immortals table and chairs to Lu's house in a carriage. , as soon as possible!”

"Yes!" Gao Cheng rushed to urge, but Lu Feng didn't dare to stay for long, so Liu He hurriedly prepared and left in a hurry.

Liu He also went out and walked quickly to the wine shop, thinking about how to explain this to Lu Zhi. The key now is not to sell furniture, but to make Lu Zhi lose face in front of the guests, which was never expected.

The gentry in the Han Dynasty paid the most attention to etiquette and face. When friends came from afar, everyone came by invitation. Lu Zhizheng was in high spirits, but he couldn't entertain guests because of lack of furniture at home. Didn't this slap him on the spot?

Let Liu Yu try the newly made furniture yesterday, and the evaluation was extremely high, which greatly boosted Liu He's confidence, so today he changed the furniture with great interest, and made some money from those profiteers by the way.

Originally, I wanted to surprise my future father-in-law, but I didn't expect it to be self-defeating, and I played off.

In a few days it will be a big day for the two families. Almost everyone knows about it, but Lu Zhi threatened to divorce, which shows that he was really angry. If he can't save his face, it will be very difficult for this matter to be resolved.
