Chapter 124: Jiangying trivial matters, officials come to the door

Still not getting the news he wanted, Liu Ruohuan asked.

"Has anything happened to her? For example, the specific situation at her family back then, or the habits that were different from ordinary people?"

After responding, Xu Bo thought that the young master's request was really difficult to satisfy, but in order to survive, he had to rack his brains to search for memories related to Jiangying.

"So, it seems that this is true... The child was born with fair skin and beautiful appearance at that time, and he has been so delicate and charming since he was a child. It would not be surprising if he was a lady from a noble family, but her family was a tenant who fled the famine. When she was the age when she entered the mansion, she usually worked at home."

"Which family has a family who goes to the ground to cut pig grass all year round, does the child in the family have no calluses on his hands? So she is not like the daughter of a tenant family. By the way, you haven't seen her father, black, and she has a briquette like a coal ball. On the contrary, the child's mother is pretty."

Xu Bo sighed: "So there were a lot of rumors circulating in the mansion at that time. Most people didn't believe that the farmer was her biological father. It is said that her mother had a love affair with a son of a noble family in the north. Later, she did not climb to the branch and was kicked out by someone as pregnant... The children who entered the mansion at the same time laughed at her life experience."

Liu Ruohuan frowned. Even for a child, such words were too much.

"At that time, most of the girls were locals in Jinling City, and they often joked with her in Youzhou accent, and bullied her very much... Later, the wife found out about this, and she was furious and ordered each maid to punish her. After the reward, she rushed back home. It was also after this incident, no one in the mansion dared to joke with her life experience. Soon afterwards, Jiangying became the royal maid around her. "

"These are all things that happened to you when you were young, so you shouldn't have any impression of your servants... The wife has always been very nice to that girl, and Jiangying is very reliable in doing things, but since the wife was imprisoned and you were taken away by the Luo family, she rolled up the bed that night and walked away with her luggage. No one in the mansion had ever seen her again."

When Uncle Xu said this, he lowered his head in shame, "I also said at that time that she was in vain for the sake of her wife's cultivation and could not advance and retreat with the Liu family, but I didn't expect that I would also follow her old path today."

Liu Ruohuan did not speak to comfort the old man in front of him. His thoughts were a little confused. There was a conflict between Xu Bo and his father Liu Yan's words.

My father said that Jiangying would come to feed him every day, but Uncle Xu said that she had disappeared the night after she left...

There is no need to deceive both of them, but according to Xu Bo, why did a maid who had already planned to make a living by herself frequently come back to feed her father?

If she didn't plan to leave, why did she deliberately avoid the eyes and ears of other servants?

Moreover, Jiangying's life experience is really just the daughter of a tenant's family?

Liu Ruohuan felt in his heart that Jiangying must have her own secret, but he had no idea yet. The information he could get around him was too messy and could not make up a complete clue.

Just as he closed his eyes and pondered, the door of the room was suddenly kicked open.

Several strong women wearing square hats and indigo official costumes broke into the door. They held the oxtail knife at their waists and looked at the whole room.

Uncle Xu hurriedly put his smile on his face, stood at the table first, bowing to the ceremony, "Dear officials, why are you interested in coming to the side courtyard..."

The female official in charge in the lead didn't want to answer at all. She walked over to Uncle Xu and saw the white bag on the table, with a glimmer of light flashing in her eyes.

"How come you guys who rub your head and brain are so stupid and dare to hide dirt? Come on, confiscate all the stolen goods on their tables."

Uncle Xu hurriedly put his smile on his face. This smile was even worse than crying. "Grandma Guan, this is the villain's savings in this life. I have saved up such a little thing after working hard. You took these away, but how can I live?"

"Life? You Minister Liu has been working in the Ministry of Revenue in Jinling for many years and plundering people's wealth and ointment. This is just to make you corrupt officials spit out what you eat."

The female official glanced at her disdainfully, then made gestures one by one.

"Search it for me! He smashed the house and saw what else is there. Maybe it's the place where the 800,000 Kuyin is hiding!"

The two followers next to the female official smiled maliciously, and they walked up swaggeringly. Among women, big guys like them are rare.

But before I could get to the table, I found that there was a man sitting on the table. The man had his back facing the door frame before, but no one noticed him.

"Hey, what are you doing? Why don't you treat the officials in our Jinling Prefecture? "

These officials are not brainless. They can stay in the government office for many years, and at least they still have the ability to look at people. The clothes and brocade robes on this man are obviously not affordable to ordinary people.

It's just a young man from a noble family who doesn't learn some red embroidery at home, so why do you go to a guilty mansion?

Liu Ruohuan turned around slowly and saluted the few people indifferently, "Dear officials, Mr. Xu has been working in my family for many years and is honest and diligent. It is better to just look at my Liu Ruohuan's face and let him leave with him with all his money."

The messenger originally thought he was a big shot, but now he heard that he was the young master of the Liu family and laughed.

"Liu Ruohuan? You are the young master of the Liu family. Because his mother was imprisoned, she was afraid of being implicated, so she became the short-lived son-in-law of the Luo family in order to save her life?"

After saying this, several officials burst into laughter, and the unrestrained female voices instantly filled the entire room.

Liu Ruohuan was calm. There was no one in charge in the Liu Mansion now. I think these officials are used to bullying the weak and fearing the strong. They must have thought that his family could not turn over and dared to talk to him like this.

On the other hand, although they were competing with the Luo family, the rumors that the young master of the Luo family had defeated his husband had become well known. The city was full of storms. They felt that they would not live long and did not take him seriously.

Liu Ruohuan said calmly: "I am short-lived, but no matter what, I am also the son-in-law of the Luo family. Although the Luo family may not be able to save my mother, if I hear that my son-in-law has not yet married, I am afraid that it will be for the sake of the face of the aristocratic family, I will also dispose of the few people in a human form, right?"

I have to say that Liu Ruohuan was very aware of the fact that the head official stared at him fiercely, but did not dare to do anything to him.

"A young man who runs to the Luo family to avoid the limelight every day is quite thoughtful. OK! Anyway, you won't live on the day of getting married. I will be the first seven cents given to you by my sisters!"

After saying that, she waved her head and signaled the two to follow her and leave here.

Seeing the three of them swaying and disappearing in front of them in a flash, Xu Bo knelt down to Liu Ruohuan excitedly and shouted: "Thank you, my son, if I don't have all this life-saving money, I don't know how I will live in the future."

Liu Ruohuan helped him up, and after he calmed down, he dropped a bombshell.

"Uncle Xu, actually, I came back this time because I didn't want to see the Liu family decline and become the owner of the Liu family on behalf of my father. Are you willing to stay and help me manage my property?"
