Chapter 56 The scene was more exciting than he imagined
As soon as he finished speaking, a broom hit Lu Qingcheng on the head from behind.
She turned around in shock and saw the old man with half white hair and a face full of anger.
"You bastard, is it your turn to give orders?" Wu Chongxi raised the broom and hit Lu Qingcheng, cursing as he beat her: "Xiao Hong is my chosen disciple! How dare you, a filthy thing, bully my disciple! Get out of here right now!"
Lu Qingcheng was hiding in a panic, but Wu Chongxi chased her relentlessly, forcing her all the way to the gate of the courtyard.
"Grandpa Wu, don't be angry." Meng Chenghong went over obediently and grabbed Wu Chongxi's clothes, but he didn't look very happy when he looked at Lu Qingcheng.
"Sister Lu, I don't like you. Last year, you pushed my brother and injured him, causing him to be hospitalized and unable to go to college. Grandpa Wu doesn't like you either. No one here likes you. Please leave quickly. Seeing you only makes people feel bad."
The childish voice spoke heartbreaking words, and the guests around who came to visit couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh. Lu Qingcheng was humiliated and glared at Meng Chenghong hatefully.
He's just a wild boy from a poor family, yet he dares to humiliate me in public!
Just wait for me!
Before she could utter any harsh words, Wu Chongxi had already hit her with the broom in his hand.
"Okay, so you're still a vicious woman who was so cruel to your brother! Get out of here now! Don't dirty my place!"
Lu Qingcheng was already humiliated enough. She grabbed the broom that was swinging down at her head, her eyes flashing with ferocity as she pointed at Meng Anran and yelled, "Meng Anran is a vicious woman! She stole seventeen years of my life and even brought my classmates to bully me! Who can get along with her?!"
Meng Anran, who had been shot inexplicably, raised her eyebrows innocently, walked towards Lu Qingcheng, and asked curiously, "What you said is quite funny. Could it be that I was so smart when I was born that I climbed onto your bed and kicked you off, and then was taken back to the Lu family in your place? The classmates in the class are even more innocent. It was obviously you who treated them as idiots, maliciously threw dirty water on me, and wanted to use them as your knives. Isn't it normal for them not to play with people with more tricks?"
"you!"
Feeling the pointing eyes around her, Lu Qingcheng glared at Meng Anran, so angry that she was out of breath, but she couldn't say a word of rebuttal.
"One more thing." Meng Anran said leisurely, "Old Wu and I are old friends. It's fine if you scold me, but Old Wu is a famous calligraphy master. So many people came to visit today. If you insult Old Wu's character in public, isn't that the same as insulting these guests?"
When the audience heard this, they changed from watching to condemning the show.
Yes, Mr. Wu’s paintings are priceless. Aren’t they coming here just to build a good relationship with Mr. Wu?
How could you just stand by and watch Mr. Wu being slandered?
For a moment, Lu Qingcheng became the target of public criticism, and everyone shouted to kick her out.
In a panic, she remembered that the purpose of her trip was to buy Wu Chongxi's calligraphy to please Lu Heng.
She suppressed the anger brought on by the humiliation, and lowered her voice and attitude. "Mr. Wu, my eldest brother really likes your work. Sell me one. It's your price."
"Hmph! Do you think I care about your filthy money? Get out!" Wu Chongxi was too lazy to talk any more nonsense with Lu Qingcheng, so he picked up the broom and swept her out of the house.
Seeing that Wu Chongxi was furious, the others did not dare to disturb him any further and said goodbye respectfully and left.
The servant quickly closed the door and breathed a sigh of relief.
What a difficult and unruly young lady.
Meng Anran's eyes moved slightly and he fell into deep thought.
After staying in the Lu family for so many years, she had never heard that Lu Heng liked calligraphy and painting.
Lu Zhong, on the other hand, collected a lot of masterpieces by masters, and he particularly admired Wu Chongxi.
The people who came today were all big shots in the Beijing circle. Lu Qingcheng's fuss not only brought shame to the Lu family, but also indirectly angered Lu Zhong. I'm afraid she won't have a good life in the Lu family villa in the future.
Meng Anran curled her lips, guessing that this was probably the masterpiece of the two brothers.
On a century-old tree opposite the Golden Osmanthus Garden, Lu Yi leaned against the trunk casually and watched the whole show.
His thin lips raised into a seductive smirk. His efforts were not in vain. The scene was more exciting than he had imagined.
"Second Young Master, please come down quickly. The wound on your hand hasn't healed yet!"
The housekeeper stood under the tree and stared anxiously at the person on the tree, fearing that the second young master would accidentally fall down and not only break his hands but also his legs.
Hearing this, Lu Yi looked down at his hand that was still hanging around his neck and chuckled.
This hand...isn't that serious.
Neither he nor Lu Heng was stupid enough to set up Meng Anran and cripple the other party.
It’s just that we have to do the whole show.
I am a little curious. Lu Qingcheng only has the title of Lu family's daughter, but no power or connections. How could she find Wu Chongxi's address so quickly?
It seems that the person who supports her behind the scenes is not simple.
…
Wu Chongxi threw down the broom and happily pulled Meng Chenghong into the house to sit down. His joy was no less than having a grandson.
He finally has an apprentice!
He is also a talented, obedient and well-behaved apprentice!
Meng Chenghong unzipped his schoolbag, took out a square gift box, and handed it to Wu Chongxi, "Grandpa Wu, this is my gift for you."
"Okay, okay, thank you Xiaohong." Wu Chongxi smiled so hard that his eyes became just slits. He ordered the servants to bring tea quickly. He wanted to drink the tea to show his respect to his master!
After the ceremony, Wu Chongxi couldn't wait to teach his apprentice calligraphy, and the old man and the young boy went into the study.
The servant sighed, "I haven't seen Mr. Wu so happy in a long time."
Meng Anran chuckled. She had never seen that either.
Turning her gaze to the servant, she spoke softly, "Did you just scratch your hand? Bring me the medicine box and I'll give you some medicine."
The servant was flattered and waved his hands repeatedly, "Don't bother you, it's just a scrape, I can disinfect it myself."
"If it's not treated properly, it will easily get infected. If it gets inflamed, how can you take care of Mr. Wu?" Meng Anran tilted her head and smiled lightly, "I'm not that scary, am I?"
The girl has flawless fair skin, and her facial lines are as if carved by nature with a bit of coldness. When she smiles, her beautiful peach blossom eyes curve up.
She is like a god descending from heaven. She is friendly and at the same time has an innate sense of majesty, which makes people inexplicably admire and believe in her from the bottom of their hearts.
The servant was stunned for a moment, and it took him a while to realize what was happening before he went to get the medicine box.
"Thank you for your help."
The servant Liu Zhile was just a boy in his early twenties. Even though he had seen her many times, he still felt a little embarrassed in front of a girl as beautiful as Meng Anran.
A slightly cool, white hand took his hand and applied medicine to him. His face was already as red as a boiled shrimp.
He was thinking that Meng Anran had decent manners and good manners, and she had a bright and generous face. She was obviously a spoiled daughter, but she was not at all willful and arrogant. Instead, she was approachable, gentle and kind.
He would probably be a popular figure in any circle.
If I can achieve something, will there be a chance for her to look at me more?
