Shocked! After planting, a sickly and charming first assistant will grow up.

"Follow me." Jiang Dong called Lu Xiao to the study, holding back the veins on his forehead.

Before leaving, he glanced at Jiang Keyuan, who was standing in the corner, bewildered. That look was extremely cold.

The latter met her father's disappointed and accusing eyes, and her whole body trembled even more. At this moment, she really wanted to cut the best into pieces.

Children who are considered "useless" by their fathers will be abandoned. She doesn't want to be an abandoned child, and her blood is cold.

If...if someone hadn't tempted Lu Laosan to gamble, or if he was waiting for things to reach the extreme before breaking out, then this wouldn't have happened today.

She was too impatient.

There was a hint of regret in my heart.

"You, I'm talking about you! Get me some food." The old lady spoke. After realizing it, Jiang Keyuan pointed at herself and said in an unbelievable tone:

"Want me to prepare food for you personally?"

The old lady didn't answer and asked instead: "You want me to crawl to the palace to beg for food?"

Thinking of the way she twisted and crawled in front of the house, Jiang Keyuan swallowed a mouthful of old blood and turned around to leave.

The two sons and their daughter-in-law gathered around and asked about their welfare. Looking at the younger son who was obviously emaciated and beaten badly, the old lady gave him a fierce look:

"Go back and take care of you."

As soon as Lu Laosan shrank his neck, he also knew that the person who brought him into the gambling house was Jiang Keyuan's people, recalling the torture of being imprisoned these days.

He was frightened and at the same time itched his teeth with hatred. He remembered this hatred.

"..."

Xiangfu study room——

The door was closed behind him and the room was dark. Jiang Dong sat behind the desk and remained silent.

There was silence everywhere, Lu Xiao lowered his eyebrows and knew that he could not be kind this time.

I don't know how much time passed, but Jiang Dong finally suppressed the anger in his chest and abdomen and asked, "Do you know what you did wrong?"

Lu Xiao sighed: "To be honest, my mother used to be the most ordinary country woman. She was greedy and selfish, but she never did this."

Thinking about how his mother had risked her life just now to beat the drum, he felt chills in his heart.

Jiang Dong understood immediately: "What do you mean, someone is behind their backs?"

Lu Xiao nodded, with a troubled expression on his face: "But I checked all the political opponents and sent people to keep an eye on them, and I didn't find anyone who had close contacts."

He did check and found out that the best methods were not very clever, but were particularly useful. They seemed to have been designed to deal with him and his father-in-law.

The purpose was so strong that it was difficult for him not to notice it.

However, after checking the colleagues in the DPRK who did not deal with him on weekdays, nothing amiss was found.

I knew in my heart that if I wanted to calm my father-in-law down, I could only show weakness.

As expected, Jiang Dong was distracted and tapped his fingers on the table: "Leave this matter to the truth." He took a look at the son-in-law whom he had once been optimistic about.

The voice was calm: "Don't get involved in the fight against the disaster. Go home and rest for a while. When your family is settled, you can go to court again."

"Yes! My son-in-law understands." Lu Xiao smiled bitterly.

The biggest priority for the imperial court in the near future is to fight against disasters. Asking him to withdraw would be giving up the opportunity to make meritorious deeds.

This is Jiang Dong's punishment for him.

And he had to suffer in order not to lose more.

It’s so restrictive! Lu Xiao clenched his fists under his sleeves.

After he left with heavy footsteps, Changsui knocked on the door of the study: "Master Xiang, the lady wants to see you."

With a "bang", something heavy hit the door, and Jiang Dong's furious voice came from inside the room: "Let her get out."

"..."

In the front hall, when Lu Xiao came back, Jiang Keyuan was waiting for the meal behind his mother, and the old lady was giving orders like the mistress of the prime minister's house.

The wife's face was pale and she was no longer as domineering as before.

The old lady squinted her eyes and asked, "Have you made a decision?"

Lu Xiao slowly sat across from her, held up his chopsticks, and said in an unclear tone, "Mother! How are you doing at home? My son will not touch you."

"You are really not afraid of the prime minister's retaliation during this performance!"

Is the old lady afraid?

In fact, she was afraid, but Luo Xi said that the more the matter was brought to light, the less the prime minister would dare to touch her.

Didn't he look outside the house today? The old bastard was shocked and dumbfounded. Didn't anyone try to stop her by force if he tried to avoid it?

With this kind of relationship, no matter what the reason is, once you do something to yourself in public, you will inevitably leave something to be said, so you can only endure it.

She sneered and looked at Lu Xiao, "What haven't I seen before?"

"If you want revenge, let him come. Do you think everyone in the capital is a fool? If anything happens to me, even if I lose a hair, the suspect will fall on the Prime Minister."

"Don't scare me with this."

She also said this to the servants of the Prime Minister's Mansion who were standing around.

If something happens to her, the Prime Minister's Mansion will be the murderer, and she will be the number one suspect of the people in the capital.

Lu Xiao took a deep breath, his lungs were so swollen that it hurt, his mother really understood.

Jiang Dong would indeed not attack them directly, the consequences would all fall on him!

After swallowing the old blood, he held back his anger and took out a token from his arms: "Here you are, the stewardship rights."

The old lady quickly grabbed it from the table, put the token in her palm and rubbed it repeatedly, her eyes shining with greed.

Very good! With this token, she can enter and leave the treasury freely. Does she still have to worry about being short of money?

He put down his chopsticks and stood up, "Okay! Son! Let's go home. We don't want to bother you in this house for too long."

"There's no rush." ​​Lu Xiao picked up the food slowly, "Wait until I finish eating before leaving."

The old lady always felt that this white-eyed wolf was stalling for time, but she couldn't figure out why.

If I couldn't figure it out, I stopped thinking about it and simply got the stewardship... The future is promising.

"..."

Back at the Hou Mansion, the old lady couldn't wait to go to the treasury with the "Excellent Legion".

Lu Xiao withdrew his soldiers, let his mother replace him with one of his own, and asked the team leader: "Has all the main money in the treasury been moved away?"

"Yes! It has been transferred before you return home. There are only three thousand taels of cash left in the treasury and a batch of fake antique calligraphy and paintings." The latter replied respectfully.

"Well done!" Lu Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief. The plan to send Jiezhi away failed again. He had to stabilize the person first and stop embarrassing himself.

It's best not to let him find out which bastard grandson is behind this!

Damn it's so cruel...so cruel! ! !

Finally, I couldn't hold it back and smashed the jade and porcelain vase in the study room to suppress the fire.

"..."

The best people who didn't know that they had been stolen and replaced walked into the treasury to have a closer look.

They didn't understand it when they came last time. They only picked out gold and silver jewelry and didn't dare to take too much.

After paying off the debt for my younger son, I realized that the real value is these antique calligraphy and paintings!

Lu Mingjun's eyes sparkled and he opened a scroll: "Miscellaneous! Look, this is the original work of Mr. Huai'an, a great scholar from the previous dynasty."

Pointing to the seal at the signature, "I have seen the same thing in a book. Mr. Huai'an, as a scholar, once killed 200,000 enemy troops. It can be said that..."

Lu Mingjun was holding a fake in his hand and talking loudly. The old lady couldn't understand it, but it didn't stop her from thinking that her grandson was awesome.

With a big wave of his hand, "Since you like it, it's yours."

Lu Mingjun was very happy to hold the painting and went to invite his new friends to drink and appreciate it.

Pointing at the painting, he had the courage to scold Fang Qiong, without even noticing that the so-called new friends were all suppressing laughter.

He looked like he was looking at a fool.

This kind of fake product that looks fake at first glance can only deceive this dear friend!
