Chapter 377: Master Lu returns home

With a bang, the sheathed samurai sword slammed down, and an idle man fell down.
Without stopping, Lu Li picked up the sheathed samurai sword and slashed it all the way. Just in the blink of an eye, a dozen idlers were smashed in half.
"You... who are you?"
The head of the idle man was so horrified by Lu Li's fierceness that he repeatedly said, "We are from the Wang family. If you dare to be nosy, you just do it right with the Wang family. You have to think about the consequences!"
Wang Family? What a fart!
Lu Li sneered, swiping the katana, and rushed up again.
After smashing the remaining idlers with a few knives, Lu Li rushed forward, rushed to the leader of the idlers a few steps, and kicked!
With a "bang", the leader of the idle man was kicked upside down by Lu Li and hit the ground heavily.
"roll!"
Lu Li's face was cold, and he shouted at the group of idle men.
The idlers hurriedly got up, ignoring the severe pain on their bodies, supporting each other, limping and fleeing in embarrassment.
"Boy, kindly report it!"
The idle man leader yelled while running.
"I am your grandpa!"
Lu Li stretched out his hand and drew the samurai sword and threw it out at the leader of the idle man.
The light of the knife pierced through the air and threw a puff in front of the leader of the idle man, scared the leader of the idle man with a strange cry, using both hands and feet, stumbled and fled in embarrassment.
Lu Li snorted, turned and walked over, drew the long knife from the ground and retracted the scabbard.
"This... strong..."
The old butler greeted him, but he didn't know what to call Lu Li. Is it a strong man? Wearing a scholar green robe again. Say it's a scholar, right? Who has seen a scholar who can fight so well?
"Grandpa Sheng."
At this time, Li Wan walked up with her nanny and greeted the old housekeeper.
"Miss Ciao is here?"
The old housekeeper hurriedly bowed to Li Wan and Nun Nun, "It's fine if you come here. There are pirates outside, the old lady was still talking about you last night!"
Having said that, the old butler looked at Lu Li again and asked Li Wan, "Miss Biao, this young man is..."
"Uncle Sheng, don't you know your cousin?"
Li Wan said quickly: "This is my cousin Lu Li, my uncle's son. I went to sea with my uncle ten years ago and only came back yesterday."
In fact, Li Wan's real cousin is called Lu Li, and the fence is very similar to the name Lu Li.
This is also the reason why Li Wan's expression was a little wrong when he heard the name Lu Li in the mountain.
"what?"
The old housekeeper was shocked and turned to look at Lu Li quickly, "It turned out that the young master came back? I haven't seen him in ten years, the young master...I almost can't recognize it, and my eyes are indeed very similar to the big young man!"
"Yes! I...come back!"
Lu Shilitou sighed secretly, the identity of this Lu family's child could also be recognized.
To do things in the Ming Dynasty, it is impossible to do without a proper identity.
Besides... the Lu family now has a connection with the Lu Li who will be 500 years later.
"Quick! Go and inform the old lady, the young master is back! Master Li is back!"
The old butler was full of excitement, and hurriedly yelled to the servants at the door, and then said to Lu Li: "Master, you are good to come back! You are good to come back! Come on, come in with the old slave!"
With that said, the old butler quickly led the way and led Lu Li into the Lu family mansion.
Passing through the front yard and only walking to the atrium, a group of people emerged in front of him.
An old woman with white hair, a woman in her thirties and a girl in her fifteen or sixteen years old, hurriedly walked out surrounded by a group of maids.
"Where is my grandson? Where is my grandson?"
The old woman with a sick look on her face shouted anxiously while walking.
"It's here! It's here!"
The old housekeeper hurriedly replied, "Old lady, the young master is here!"
Lu Li looked up and saw this old white-haired grandmother, her muddy eyes flashed with tears, and an expression of excitement and expectation appeared on her old face.
This scene reminded Lu Li of his grandmother who had been dead for many years.
When Lu Li returned to his hometown in the country to see his grandma, her grandma also had this expression...
Involuntarily, Lu Li's eye sockets were slightly red.
"Grandma, grandson... are back!"
Lu Li stepped forward, kneeling upright in front of the old woman, and bowed deeply.
"Just come back! Just come back! Get up! Get up!"
The old lady's voice choked up, tears rolling down her eyes.
Next to him, the woman in her thirties and the girl in fifteen or sixteen were also crying.
During this time, there were only a few women left in the Lu family to support them.
Today, the eldest grandson of the Lu family has returned. The Lu family finally has a pillar to support the family business!
"Brother Li, you are finally back! Your second uncle... was framed and put in jail, and the family can't make it anymore!"
This woman in her thirties is naturally "second aunt". The fifteen-year-old girl next to her should be the "cousin", right?
"Auntie, don't worry!"
Lu Li bowed to the "second aunt" again, "Since I'm back, the second uncle's matter will definitely be resolved."
"Good! Good! It's all up to Brother Li!"
The aunt nodded while wiping her tears.
"Ville has seen Big Brother!"
The fifteen-year-old girl next to her hurried forward to meet Lu Li.
This girl is called Lu Wei, who is the daughter of the second uncle.
Naturally, Lu Li had already understood this information clearly with Li Wan.
After everyone met, they inevitably asked about the whereabouts of the Lu family boss.
Lu Li could only fabricate a shipwreck accident, and sent this Li Wan's uncle, the eldest son of the Lu family, to accompany Lord Long.
Going to sea in this era, there has been no news for more than ten years, and it must have been feeding fish. Whether it is a Japanese pirate or other pirates, encountering a ship sailing on the sea, killing all people, and robbing the ship with the cargo is the basic operation.
The answer Lu Li gave was not unexpected, everyone cried again, and they could only admit their fate.
Next, Lu Li formally served as the grandson of Lu's parents and worshipped his ancestors in the ancestral hall.
When he was worshipping the ancestors in the ancestral hall, Lu Li saw the portraits hanging in the ancestral hall, and he actually found that he was somewhat similar to the people in these portraits.
From the genetic analysis, maybe... this Songjiang Prefecture Lu family is really my ancestor five hundred years ago!
The reason why Li Wan said that I was her direct cousin might not be for no reason, and it wasn't that she just found someone to impersonate.
The ages are similar, and there are some similarities in looks. It is very likely that... Li Wan really suspects that "Lu Li" is "Lu Li".
In any case, this is also a good thing.
At least, Lu Li's identity has been completely established, and he is no longer an "alien" with no foundation and unknown origin.
...
After settling down in the Lu Family Compound, Lu Li took a bath and changed into a brocade robe, just like a rich man.
At noon, Lu Li accompanied the old lady, aunt, cousin, and two cousins, Li Wan and 囡囡, to have lunch together.
As long as there are all women, Lu Li is a man. Huating Lu's family is not prosperous, yin is prosperous and yang is declining! No wonder I was bullied miserably.
Lu Li had also seen the old lady's illness.
Lu Li could tell at a glance that the old lady was just over-anxious, it was entirely a psychological problem.
Now that the pillar of Lu Li is back, the old lady is naturally fine.
After eating with the family, Lu Li returned to the yard and called the old housekeeper Lu Sheng over.
"Uncle Sheng, I just came back, and many things are still unclear. Tell me about the causes and consequences of your second uncle's imprisonment."
Sitting in the hall in the courtyard, Lu Li asked the old butler why.
"Master, it's like this."
The old butler quickly reported to Lu Li: "The second son went to Yunyan Pavilion for a banquet with his classmates in the twelfth lunar month last year. That night, the second son stayed at Yunyan Pavilion. The next day... the little lady in Yunyan Pavilion died. Therefore, the second son was killed. The Huating County government was arrested and taken to the prison."
"This matter has something to do with the Wang family?"
When Lu Li heard this, he immediately thought of framing.
The little lady in Yunyan Pavilion is naturally a prostitute. This cheap second uncle, no matter how powerful it is, it is impossible to kill a prostitute who has been on the battlefield for a long time and has endured countless artillery fires.
"We didn't think about this in the first place. Later, when the Wang family wanted to seize the land of the Lu family, and deliberately let out words, we only learned that the second son was framed by the Wang family in prison."
The old housekeeper quickly explained to Lu Li.
"Is that so?"
Lu Li frowned slightly, "How much land does the Lu family have?"
"Three thousand acres."
This number... is not too small, but not too much.
For 3,000 acres of land, the Wang family, being Xu Ge’s in-laws, why so disregarding their food, they start with people like the Lu family who are also the home of a squire?
There must be greater benefits here!
But...the fields in Yunjian Township, Huating County, have neither gold or silver minerals nor valuable cash crops. Where are the benefits?
There is still too little information to think of.
Lu Li nodded towards the old butler, "I see! I'll visit Huating County, and ask for the news!"
"Master, do you want to prepare a gift?"
The old butler is worthy of being a butler and he is very thoughtful.
"I prepare the gift myself, you don't have to worry about it."
Lu Li sent the old butler out and turned to the study.
It is better to be "gentle" when dealing with civil officials as a scholar.
The Lu family is a scholarly family, and there are natural pen, ink, paper and inkstone in the study.
Lu Li unfolded a roll of rice paper, pressed the paper to sharpen the ink, and painted on the rice paper.
In a moment, a pair of Mozhu suddenly appeared on the paper!
In the space left, Lu Li mentioned another line of poem: "Yazhai Lying to listen to Xiao Xiaozhu, it is suspected that it is a folk complaint; these Xiaowu Caozhou county officials, one branch and one leaf are always concerned.
This is to flatter Yuan Zhixian.
With Lu Li's master painting skills and master calligraphy, this painting and this line of poems are naturally rare treasures.
It's just that... this Zheng Banqiao's poem, placed on Yuan Zhixian's body, is really insulting to this poem.
Lu Li curled his lips, changed a fine-end brush, and signed a note below.
After habitually preparing to stamp, Lu Li remembered that there was no time to engrave the stamp in this plot!
Fortunately, this is not difficult.
Asking the maid to ask the old butler for a piece of sapphire, Lu Li took out the short knife snatched from the Japanese pirate and started to cut it.
Sapphire is nephrite, and the quality of this short knife is not bad, although it is not a special jade carving knife, it can still be used.
Soon, Lu Li carved a seal with the words "Huating Lu Li" on the seal.
Huating means Huating County.
Picking up the seal, dipping it with cinnabar ink, put a seal on the scroll, and the work is completed.
Lu Li used a scroll to mount the painting, and after drying it, he took up the scroll and got up to go out.
Just when he walked to the door of the Lu Family Courtyard, Lu Li saw a carriage parked at the door.
"Master, I'm ready for the car."
The old butler greeted him and arched his hand towards Lu Li.
"Thank you Sheng Bo."
Lu Li sighed secretly, the old housekeeper was really thoughtful, and even the carriage was ready.
Sitting on the horse, a small servant drove a carriage, all the way to Huating County.
Then... Lu Li almost broke his waist.
In an era without shock absorbers, sitting there is a "car shake" all the way!
Fortunately, it didn't take long. The carriage entered the city in less than half an hour.
The road conditions in the city are much better, and the bluestone pavement is fairly smooth and not so bumpy.
After a while, the carriage stopped at the county government office.
Lu Li rubbed his waist and got out of the car, walked to the gate of the county government, took out a piece of silver, handed it to the guard at the gate, and sent a famous post, "Student Lu Li, please see the county magistrate. Please inform."
This "student" represents identity. Those who dare to call themselves students are scholars.
The guard at the gate received the money, so naturally he wouldn't be embarrassed and said "wait a minute" to Lu Li, then turned around and reported back.
After Houya, Yuan Zhixian heard the officer report "Lu Li, please see me", and immediately knew that this was a friend who had "divided up the spoils together".
"Invite him in!"
Reaching out to take the famous post, Yuan Zhixian waved his hand and sent off the guard.
The name Lu Li is actually enough. You don't need to read this post. Only... Yuan Zhixian was attracted by the handwriting on the famous post at a glance.
"Good word! Good word!"
The handwriting on the name sticker is thick and majestic, shaped like a mountain, it is a completely new typeface.
It turns out that this Lu Li has such an ability to learn?
At this moment, Yuan Zhixian had a better perception of Lu Li.
After a while, Lu Li walked into the back office.
"Student Lu Li, pay homage to the prefect."
After Lu Li entered the door, he bowed and saluted Yuan Zhixian.
"No gifts, no gifts!"
Yuan Zhixian greeted Lu Li with a smile on his face, "Sit! Sit!"
After Lu Li sat down, Yuan Zhixian said: "Ziming is here today, I don't know what's important?" (Note: Ziming is the word for Lu Li.)
"The student has made a crude work, and I would like to ask Master Yuan for advice."
Lu Li got up and handed the scroll to Yuan Zhixian.
"Oh?"
Yuan Zhixian remembered the handwriting on the famous post~EbookFREE.me~ and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he quickly took it over, "Ziming's works, you must have a good appreciation of it!"
Reaching out the scroll, Yuan Zhixian trembled when he saw this painting and this line of poems.
Yuan Zhixian is also a scholar and a scholar who has passed the Jinshi exam. He has a good natural vision. Why can't I see the extraordinary skills contained in this painting by Lu Li?
And... this poem... is simply a true portrayal of the official!
Ya Zhai lay listening to Xiao Xiaozhu, suspected to be the complaints of folk diseases.
These Xiaowu Caozhou county officials, one branch and one leaf are always close to each other.
Isn't this... the official?
With such exquisite painting skills, such profound calligraphy skills, and such beautiful verses, Lu Li has truly learned extraordinary after he deserves to be famous!
At this moment, Yuan Zhixian's favorability towards Lu Li was really blown out.
