Chapter 11 Staying in the Inn
Lan Fang cried and stamped her feet: "How can this be possible? We don't have these things, how can we live outside?"
Seeing this, Fu Danjun could only comfort him: "When I see the emperor in the future, I will ask him to order it back."
Lan Fang finally stopped crying: "Even so, it's okay, but it's hateful that Lan Xiang came back for some strange reason."
In the bedroom, Fu Danjun's bed was opened.
All the things in the secret compartment under the bed were turned out, and Lu Yu started cursing as he looked at them.
"This woman is so evil. She hides all the good things."
Yuan took the opportunity to say bitterly: "No wonder the Marquis's Mansion is getting poorer day by day. She has hidden everything under the bed."
Lu Yuan didn't bother to speak and grabbed the gold and silver items and stuffed them into his sleeves.
Pei Xi was cautious: "Let's leave her some, don't take it all. If she complains to the Emperor, won't it cause a big fuss?"
When they heard this, they thought it made sense and dropped some hairpins, rings and jewelry one by one.
Then they left together.
Lan Fang accompanied Fu Danjun back and saw that the bed was torn to pieces and all the things were gone.
"These damn people are so wicked!"
As he spoke, he rushed over and cried. Fu Danjun remained calm: "Even if it was all dowry, it's just external possessions. Look at what's left. Pack it up and we can leave."
Lan Fang wiped away her tears and ran to look for something to take away.
Finally, she took the remaining silver, Fu Danjun's clothes and some jewelry, and left in a carriage.
After the carriage drove away, Lan Fang lifted the curtain and looked out, and found a brand new world.
She was both excited and worried: "From now on, it will just be the two of us, master and servant, and we won't have much money left. How are we going to get by?"
Fu Danjun smiled when he heard this, but did not tell her that there were some shops for the time being.
The shop that the Fu family brought as a dowry was not included in the dowry list. Lan Fang and Lan Xiang were also unaware of this, in order to conceal the truth and provide their daughters with a good life if the Lu family failed Fu Danjun in the future.
The parents' love for their daughter really paid off.
In recent years, Fu Danjun has secretly asked someone to manage the store well, and business is pretty good.
In the inn, Lan Fang lay on the bed and felt drowsy.
Fu Danjun saw that she looked sick and discovered injuries on her arms, only then did he realize that she had been beaten severely.
I went out and called a doctor to diagnose me and he prescribed some medicine.
Lan Fang felt bad as she lay in bed and was fed medicine by Fu Danjun.
"I'll get up and drink it myself."
Fu Danjun held her down and said with a smile, "Why are we still divided into master and servant? From now on, we will be sisters who depend on each other for survival."
Lan Fang took two sips of the bitter medicine and said worriedly, "I'm afraid the Lu family will find us and continue to embarrass Miss."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone kicked the door outside.
Lan Fang struggled to get up: "I'll handle it."
Fu Danjun held him down and said, "Maybe he's a shop assistant. I'll go."
At the same time, he lowered the bed curtain to cover Lan Fang.
The people outside had already broken into the room. Lanxiang came in wearing gorgeous clothes and with her hair full of pearls and jade, followed by a maid.
"The young lady has moved in here, and it's hard for me to find her."
Lanxiang walked around the inn and said, "Isn't this place too shabby?"
Fu Danjun sat there drinking tea without even looking at her.
Lanxiang came here to show off her superiority and make her presence felt. Seeing that Fu Danjun ignored her, she started to introduce herself.
"I am a completely different person now. Miss, aren't you curious about my outfit?"
Fu Danjun snorted and laughed: "If you have something to say, say it quickly, and then get out of here!"
Lan Xiang bit her lip and said, "I know you hate me, but I'm also a pawn being manipulated. The Marquis asked me to drug you, how could I dare not do it? So, in order to repay me, he made me a concubine. Now I am half a master."
Fu Danjun couldn't help but laugh out loud: "The Marquis' Mansion has already fallen into decline, how much sweetness can you, a half-master, have?"
Lan Xiang tutted her words twice: "I can't compare to the young lady, who has been pampered since childhood. I am content as long as I can eat and don't have to wait on others from nine to five."
Fu Danjun frowned and looked at her. "You've been serving me from nine to five for the past few years. You must feel very wronged, right? I'm a noble and precious person, but I've never treated you and Lan Fang unfairly. I've saved the food I like for you, and given you clothes and hairpins as gifts. I've never hit you or scolded you. Why are you feeling wronged?"
Lanxiang covered her mouth with her handkerchief and giggled: "No matter how good the young lady is to me, it's just charity, just like loving a cat or a dog."
Fu Danjun smiled bitterly: "Since you think so, then I have nothing to say."
Seeing that she ignored her, Lanxiang came closer and said mysteriously: "I'm mainly a maid, so I don't meet men."
Fu Danjun was disgusted by her vulgar and obscene appearance, and could only frown in disgust.
Lan Xiang leaned closer and said mysteriously, "The Marquis is not very good in that area. He is probably far worse than the Emperor."
Fu Danjun was so angry that he laughed: "Why are you telling me this? As if I would snatch it from you. You'd better go back and guard against the Pei family."
Speaking of the Pei family, Fu Danjun couldn't help but say a few more words: "Since ancient times, few concubines have had a good ending. What's more, you are living under the control of the Pei family. You will suffer in the future."
Lanxiang actually laughed out loud: "Miss, you are wrong. I was rescued from the brothel by the old lady of the Marquis, and I also found the dowry that the young lady had hidden. Naturally, the old lady will look up to me."
Fu Danjun gritted his teeth after hearing this: "As expected, it was that old woman who brought you back to deal with me. But there's still a long way to go, so be careful or you'll fall into my hands again one day."
Lan Xiang's face suddenly darkened, and she looked as if she didn't recognize anyone. "Miss, you'd better take care of yourself. Be careful not to end up as a beggar on the street."
Fu Danjun angrily shouted, "You're a greedy, traitorous slut! Get out of here right now!"
After all, Lanxiang lacked momentum, and she lost most of her confidence after being scolded like that.
"You scolded me today, I'll go back and tell the Marquis and have him beat you!"
She pulled Lu Yuhu to act like a bully, but Fu Danjun slapped her in the face and said, "Get out!"
Lanxiang covered her face with tears in her eyes and backed away, fearing she would be beaten again: "Okay, we'll see!"
He left like a gust of wind, and Fu Danjun immediately came to see Lan Fang.
Lan Fang originally wanted to get out of bed to help, but she couldn't get up after struggling for a long time.
Now I am groggy and have fallen asleep again.
Fu Danjun covered her with a quilt and fed her some porridge at night.
The next day, Fu Danjun went out to look for a house and quickly picked a large house with three entrances and three exits.
She went to a jewelry shop and got three thousand taels of silver to buy it, and also hired a few maids and servants to take charge of cleaning and serving.
Everything is arranged, bring Lan Fang over.
"I'm in such a hurry to move because I'm afraid the Lu family will come looking for us again. Lanxiang already knows about the inn."
As they were talking, the two were already standing in the house.
Lan Fang looked around and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Such a big house must cost thousands of silver. Where did the young lady get the silver?"
Fu Danjun smiled and mentioned the jewelry shop, which caused Lan Fang to exclaim.
"So the master and his wife have prepared a way out for the young lady. That's really great."
Fu Danjun spread his arms and spun around in the yard. "From now on, no one will bully us anymore. This is a free world."
