Nongmen Fu's wife and the whole family are villains

"Don't worry, I'm not that stupid." Lu Xuan said, "Besides, I'm an idle position, so it's useless for them to find me."

Lu Yi rubbed his forehead.

Lu Xuan handed Lu Yi a bottle of pills.

"A friend gave it to me. Taking one after drunk has miraculous effects. I used one last time, and it was indeed useful." Lu Xuan said.

"Do you still have friends in the capital?" Lu Yi took it and ate one.

"Didn't the Zhen Guo government ask you to help investigate the Huazi case? Why hasn't there been any movement recently?" Lu Xuan asked.

"They are still busy with housework and have no time to investigate this matter for the time being. Those big families are full of troubles. I just wait for the news. When they say they will start investigating."

Every day, people from the Ministry of Officials, the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, the East Palace, and the Prince Zhong's Mansion took turns looking for Lu Yi. They had to look for him for all kinds of tedious matters, but he never had a moment of leisure.

From the nervousness at the beginning to the relaxation later, Mu Siyu looked for business opportunities in the capital, and learned about the furniture market in the capital by the way, and gradually integrated into the life here.

"The barbecue on East Street is more delicious, and the biscuits on West Street are more delicious. As for pastries, the century-old shop in the inner city is more authentic. Besides..."

Mu Siyu and the two maids were talking about the delicacies in the capital, and saw a carriage parked at the entrance of Lu's house, and a well-dressed nanny stood outside the carriage.

"This is Mrs. Lu, right?" Nanny Chen blessed Fushen, "This old slave is Nanny Chen from the Duke's Mansion."

"What's the matter?" Mu Siyu asked.

Nanny Chen said politely, "Our wife welcomes you."

"I don't know what your wife wants from me?" Mu Siyu didn't rush to curry favor with the people in Zhen Guogong's mansion.

She talked to Nanny Chen very calmly, as if the 'Zhen Guo Gong Mansion' was no different from the 'Steamed Bun Shop' on the side of the road in her eyes.

"Of course it's to thank Mr. Lu for saving the eldest son of our family." Madam Chen said, "Master Lu is a foreigner, and there are men from the family who come forward. Mrs. Lu is a female family member, so it should be entertained by our wife."

"Okay." Mu Siyu got into the carriage.

Shisu and Ziyuan followed.

A quarter of an hour later, the carriage entered the luxurious courtyard in the inner city.

When Zisu opened the curtain, Mu Siyu happened to see their carriage entering through the corner gate.

If one really respected the savior, one would not enter through the corner gate, which shows that the 'gratitude' of the town government is really limited.

However, Mu Siyu never cared about these things.

These big families have many rules and troubles, and she just had to follow them out of politeness, which doesn't mean she really took their words seriously.

"Miss Pearl, please tell Madam Lu that Madam Lu is here." Nanny Chen said to a young and beautiful maid.

The servant girl glanced at Mu Siyu and nodded, "Wait a moment."

Not long after, the maid came back again and said to Mu Siyu, "Madam, this way please."

There are many women in the garden, including dignified official wives and innocent noble girls.

Mu Siyu was brought in front of one of the women.

The woman had a beautiful appearance, although she was dressed luxuriously, she looked weak and weak, as if she could be blown down by the wind.

"This is Mrs. Zhen Guogong, why don't you be polite?" Pearl reminded.

Mu Siyu saluted: "I've seen Mrs. Zhen Guogong."

The people next to him were chattering.

Mu Siyu looked calm and unaffected at all.

The person who pointed at her originally looked at her again.

"You don't need to be polite, Mrs. Lu, please take a seat." Mrs. Lan said, Mrs. Zhen Guogong, "Today I invited a few sisters to drink tea. I think Mrs. Lu just came to the capital and doesn't have any friends, so I specially invite you to come and see her." See you. Madams, haven’t you met Mrs. Lu? You haven’t seen Mrs. Lu when she first came to the capital. But you should have heard the master of the family mention Mr. Lu. Mr. Lu is the parent official of Hubei City and is deeply loved by the people. This time, thanks to Mr. Lu, the son-in-law of our Duke's Mansion was able to find him, otherwise..."

The lowest position present is also the wife of a fifth-rank official. It is the first time that the wife of Zhima county magistrate like Mu Siyu has come to such an important tea party. Everyone has no intention of making friends with Mu Siyu at all.

Mu Siyu originally thought that there was some conspiracy waiting for her, but after she had finished her tea and the tea party was over, she was rewarded by Mrs. Zhen Guogong and went back safely and without any danger.

A stubborn little girl like Zi Su was confused.

"what's going on?"

Mu Siyu looked at the jewels in the box, lacking interest.

"It's all old-fashioned styles, and I can't wear them out. What are you doing for me? You're really stingy!"

"If you can't wear it, you can still sell it!" Ziyuan said, "No matter how small the silver is, it is still silver. Madam can't look down on silver."

Mu Siyu lazily said: "It seems that Ziyuan has obtained the true inheritance of my love of money, and now there is a tendency that the blue is better than the blue."

"Ma'am, the award is too high, but the maidservant has not done enough. I will continue to learn from Madam." Ziyuan looked embarrassed.

Mu Siyu flicked her forehead: "The acting is too bad, it's exaggerated."

"Ma'am, the lady in Zhen Guogong's mansion is so strange." Zisu said, "She was talking about the eldest son all over the room, and she seemed to feel pity for him, but I clearly saw her disgusted expression." look."

"Just find someone to inquire about, and ask about the relationship between the wife of the Duke of Zhen Guo's mansion and the eldest son." Mu Siyu said, "When you inquire clearly, you will probably know her intentions."

Zi Su got out of the carriage and came back soon after inquiring about the news.

"The current Mrs. Zhen Guo is the stepmother." Zisu said, "The eldest son is from the original spouse. It is said that when the eldest son of the Duke of Zhen Guo was lost, this step-wife had just married."

"No wonder." Mu Siyu said, "The other party invited me over, and then rewarded me in front of so many people, expressing his gratitude to our Master Lu, and this is to send a message to everyone: Look, my wife The eldest son is back, and my stepmother is extremely happy, so I will never hurt him. The disappearance of the eldest son has absolutely nothing to do with me."

"It turns out that Madam was being used." Zi Su understood.

"It's not considered taking advantage." Mu Siyu said, "It's just being a toolman once, going through a cutscene, and then getting a reward. It doesn't cost me anything, and it doesn't really matter."

"Sister." A figure suddenly appeared in front of Mu Siyu.

Mu Siyu looked at the handsome young man in front of him, and said with a smile, "Chen Ling!"

Chen Ling said with a smile: "I heard that my sister is here. I wanted to see you for a long time, but I couldn't get away. I finally came out today. Sister, let me take you to the best restaurant in the capital for dinner!"
