After the evil concubine was reborn, she only wanted to abuse the scumbag

Chapter 199 199: She doesn't believe it anyway
Huo Yi hurried down.

Lu Xiang got up to say goodbye, just as she took a step, she suddenly looked at him and asked, "Have you ever read a book?"

Huo Yi blushed when asked, and said embarrassingly: "When I was young, I was sent to the academy by my father and forced to study for two years..." Later, he was sent back because he was the best in the academy, and he himself didn't want to learn. , exactly as he wanted.

"If you have studied for two years, you should be able to read. Start studying hard today. If you need it, you can invite a gentleman back." Lu Xiang said.

Huo Yi: "..."

a bolt from the blue!

Now that he doesn't go shopping in brothels, it doesn't mean he wants to study.

"Miss San, I... I don't take the No. exam, so I don't need to study."

His father is in charge of the gambling house, and he is the only son, so he doesn't have to worry about food and drink, what does he study?
Lu Xiang wanted to hit someone after hearing this.

Well, this is very second generation ancestor.

"Reading can understand the truth and tell right from wrong. At least you won't just spend your days in brothels." Lu Xiang looked at Huo Yi and said with a half-smile: "Could it be that you just want to hang around like this and wait until you die."

Huo Yi wanted to cry but had no tears, Miss San, why are you still exposing others?

So sad.

"I... I can't learn enough."

"Well, then I'm leaving."

After Lu Xiang finished speaking, she took Ah Man away.

Once Jiang Jin is removed, Zhaocai Casino will be under her control. She can't guard the casino every day, and she can't rely on Uncle Huo alone. There is no one more trustworthy than her own son.

As for the other people in the casino, after Jiang Jin's incident, Uncle Huo will definitely check them out thoroughly. Although the ones left are not with outstanding abilities, they will definitely not be Jiang Jin's people.

As soon as Lu Xiang returned to Lu Mansion, Ah Man went to Jilan Lane to find someone.

When passing the garden, she heard laughter in the distance, and was about to go back to her own yard to ask what was going on, when she suddenly saw Zhao Qingya turning around holding a box.

"Miss San." Seeing Lu Xiang, Zhao Qingya happily called out, "I was going to Qixia Courtyard to find you."

"Aunt Zhao." Lu Xiang shouted, "Auntie, what do you want me to do?"

"Master gave me some jewelry. I saw that it was a new style, so I brought it for you to choose. As for the young lady, ask her to come and choose the one you like."

Although Zhao Qingya was a bit reluctant, she knew better why she was able to go so smoothly in the mansion.

The old lady's support is of course important, and Lu Xiang cannot underestimate it.

"Thank you, Auntie." Lu Xiang smiled, and followed Zhao Qingya back to Qixia Courtyard.

Among them, his eyes couldn't help but glanced at the lively place twice.

Zhao Qingya said: "Miss San doesn't know, Aunt Yao's elder brother is here, that's why the pear courtyard is so lively."

Lu Xiang looked at Zhao Qingya in surprise: "Does Aunt Yao have an older brother? A real brother?"

Never heard of it.

Even in her previous life, she never saw Aunt Yao's elder brother go to Beijing to find relatives.

Zhao Qingya didn't know what came to her mind, and she sneered: "She said she was her own brother, and she brought a wife and children to make a big family, and she didn't know what kind of luck she had, she got an official position in Qintian Supervisor, this time it was I just came to Beijing to take up the post, but I looked at the wretched appearance of the family, they didn’t look like they were from a scholar’s ​​family, and they were full of pettiness. Third Miss, you said that Aunt Yao’s elder brother’s official position is that the master moved around for him. Did you come?"

Although Si Li of Qin Tianjian is a low-ranking ninth-rank official, he is already capable of being an official in the capital.

"It won't be the father."

If the former Liu Shi asked him to ask him about this matter, maybe his father would find a way to move around, but her father would not be able to do that with Aunt Yao's elder brother.

Aunt Yao didn't have such a big face for such a debt of favor.

Seeing Lu Xiang's affirmation, Zhao Qingya couldn't help being even more puzzled: "Could it be her brother's ability? He doesn't look like a capable person."

"What did Aunt Yao say?" Lu Xiang asked.

"She..." Zhao Qingya glanced at her lips, and said, "She said that this is her elder brother's ability to become an official, do you believe it?"

Anyway, she didn't believe it.

Even small local officials have to have connections to make money.

Let alone being an official in the capital.

What does Aunt Yao have?
"Could it be that Aunt Yao did something secretly to make a lot of money?" Zhao Qingya said to herself.

Lu Xiang was silent.

Compared to Aunt Yao spending money to buy an official for his brother, Lu Xiang believed more in someone Aunt Yao picked up in the capital.

When Xiangyu was called to harm her, it was at someone's will, but he never found out.

"Is father in the opera house?"

Zhao Qingya smiled disdainfully: "Master has gone to meet friends, but he is only a petty official, how can I deserve you to be by my side?"

Lu Xiang said: "Auntie, don't say such things in front of father, no matter how small the official position of Auntie Yao's brother is, among the three aunties in the future, her natal brother will be the most capable, father doesn't care now, maybe in the future care."

If Aunt Yao's elder brother was more tactful and good at flattering people, who knows what it would be like.

Zhao Qingya didn't think so far. Hearing Lu Xiang's words, she couldn't help but startled, and then nodded with a serious face: "Miss San reminded me that I will pay attention to propriety."

If Aunt Yao got up, she would be suppressed.

Back at Qixia Courtyard, Lu Xiang asked Yun Zhe to invite Qiao Jing Tathagata.

The three of them sat in the warm pavilion looking at the jewelry, Lu Xiang and Qiao Jingru picked out a hairpin, and they didn't want any more.

While drinking tea and chatting, I heard Yun Zhe at the door saying: "Miss, the Seventh Young Master is here."

Lu Xiang: "Please come in."

After saying that, Lu Xiao walked in with a tray, calling people one by one: "Sister-in-law, third sister, Aunt Zhao."

Lu Xiang looked at him and asked, "Why is Seventh Brother here?"

Lu Xiao took two steps forward, handed the plate in front of Lu Xiang, and said with an obedient smile, "Uncle brought some preserved fruit from my hometown. I'm eating it. I'll bring some to Third Sister. You can try it, Third Sister." taste."

Lu Xiang was slightly taken aback: "For me?"

"En." Lu Xiao smiled and said, "Uncle said it's a specialty from their side, and it's rarely available in the capital."

Lu Xiang pinched a piece and took a small bite: "En, it's delicious."

Seeing that Lu Xiang likes it, Lu Xiao smiled as if he had gotten candy.

"Sister-in-law, Aunt Zhao, you eat too." Lu Xiao took another piece for each of Qiao Jingru and Zhao Qingya.

"You come to my place, does Aunt Yao know?" Lu Xiang asked.

Lu Xiao nodded: "I know, but my aunt was too busy talking to my uncle and aunt, so I didn't take care of me."

Lu Xiang nodded clearly, and then asked, "What did uncle Yao's family do before?"

Lu Xiao shook his head blankly: "I don't know."

"I'll just ask casually, thank you for the preserved fruit."

"Third Sister, as long as she likes it, then I'm leaving."

Lu Xiang shouted towards the door: "Yun Zhe, send Seventh Young Master back to the pear courtyard."

After Qiao Jingru finished eating one, she took another and asked, "This preserved fruit is quite delicious, Xiangxiang will let me decorate it back home soon."
