Lu Yun's expression was subtle, and he kept the person at a distance: "No. I've been very busy recently. What's the matter?"

Liu Chu saw the dark blue under his husband's eyes, and his heart was deeply moved, knowing that Lu Yun was not lying. The war between the southern and northern borders had tied them up and made them exhausted. However, the sons of the noble families in Jianye, the southern country, were still living a life of luxury and prosperity. The sons of the noble families who grew up in wealth and nobility did not have a clear understanding of the war. Few people who cared about this matter, like Lu Yun, had been staying up late for a long time.

Liu Chu said: "You are very tired, it's time to rest."

Lu Yun said "hmm" in a very perfunctory manner. He didn't want to be idle. Once he was idle, he would bother Luo Lingyu. He was angry and embarrassed. Luo Lingyu's indifference for such a long time had put him in a high position, unable to get up or down. If he was idle, he would have to worry about this matter. Thinking of this, Liu Chu's "cousin" just now made Lu Yun sensitively ask: "What did my cousin do again?"

Liu Chu: "...She and Zhou Lang want to open a business together!"

Lu Yun narrowed his eyes.

Zhou Yangling wanted to open a business in Jianye to make money, but it was to pave the way for her father and his people. For outstanding people from poor families like Zhou Tan, who had no worries about food and clothing and abundant money, what they wanted most was to marry into the gentry to change their status. Zhou Tan deliberately sent his daughter to Jianye to socialize and try to marry the King of Chen, thinking that even if the idea of ​​the poor children entering the court to serve as officials could not be realized, his daughter's marriage could help them improve their status. Unfortunately, Zhou Yangling had different ideas from her father. She was also willing to socialize in Jianye, but the way she chose was different from what her father wanted.

Socializing in Jianye requires a lot of money. Even if Zhou Yangling has a lot of money, she can't just squander it. It's easy to imagine that she wants to open a shop to circulate money.

But Luo Lingyu also joined in...

Lu Yun's eyes dimmed: She and Zhou Yangling, seemed to be too close? He knew that Zhou Yangling was a woman, but Luo Lingyu didn't know. With Luo Lingyu's consistent character...

Lu Yun was a little annoyed. He threw away the book in front of him and picked up another one.

Liu Chu: "You take care of your cousin! She, she is always pestering Zhou Lang!"

Lu Yun smiled perfunctorily and lowered his eyes: "This is her own business. She is not my biological cousin. How can I care about it?"

Although Liu Chu answered like this, Lu Yun seemed to have found an excuse to ask Luo Lingyu what she was doing recently. That night, he returned to Lu's residence early because he did not stay up late in the government office. After dinner, Lu Yun played chess alone to pass the time. Only then did he casually ask the maid Jinyue what her cousin was busy with recently.

Jinyue answered truthfully.

Luo Lingyu was persuaded by Zhou Yangling's suggestion. Zhou Yangling was willing to contribute money and people, but Zhou Yangling knew that she was weak and didn't want to waste energy on trivial matters. However, Luo Lingyu looked weak and thin, but she was full of energy. She was very motivated to do anything that could bring benefits. Zhou Yangling just gave a suggestion, and Luo Lingyu thought about it on her own and was willing to contribute her more than ten years of beauty experience to open a cosmetics shop.

Aristocratic families have always been self-sufficient, and rarely use the food, clothing, and daily necessities of ordinary people. Luo Lingyu defined the cosmetics shop she was going to open as targeting ordinary people, especially the wealthy merchants among ordinary people. For someone like Luo Lingyu who cherishes her beauty, the makeup, rouge, facial decorations, lipstick, etc. she usually uses are all prepared by herself. She uses medical knowledge and experiments for many years and has her own prescriptions. In order to improve these prescriptions, Luo Lingyu usually makes thick records for comparison. After all, these are passed down by the nobles themselves, and ordinary people have no chance to see them. If you take these to sell, even if the quantity is a little smaller, the wealthy merchants who flock to buy them will regard them as treasures.

Having decided on the direction, Luo Lingyu spent her days studying how to open the shop, how to get the profit as quickly as possible, and how to become famous among the merchants... Zhou Yangling didn't care about these things anyway, so Luo Lingyu devoted herself to studying these things.

She felt that she and Zhou Lang had a 4:6 split, and she was not taking advantage of him, nor was she wronging Zhou Yangling. She had put in so much effort and thought, she just didn't put in the capital. Zhou Lang's 50:50 was not bad, and now she got 4 points, Luo Lingyu felt that she was doing it because of Zhou Lang's handsomeness.

However, Luo Lingyu lost her family when she was ten years old. Even before her family was ruined, Luo Lingyu had never seen how others did business or how they opened a shop to make money. She was inevitably confused and misunderstanding things when she was exploring on her own. But she was not discouraged. The more she didn't understand, the more she had to calm down and figure it out.

Lu Yun stayed up late every day to handle state affairs, and Luo Lingyu also stayed up late every day to figure out how to make money.

As the day was about to dawn, Luo Lingyu put away the book she had been writing all night and hurried out with her maid. Before it was completely light, she ran into Lu Yun in the courtyard who was going to court. Lu Yun was standing with Lu Erlang and other gentlemen. After Lu Erlang said a few words, Lu Sanlang stood there waiting indifferently. Lu Erlang turned around and gave Luo Lingyu a tacit look, then took a large number of Lu family members out and got on the car to go to court.

The young man in black clothes, who had just emerged from the water like a fish, was quite shocked.

Luo Lingyu only saw a man in a black robe. His figure was like a pine or cypress, standing in the wind. His eyebrows were like black hooks, his nose was like a hanging gallbladder, and his lips were like red cinnabar. He was surprisingly elegant and unparalleled. The breeze was gentle, and he stood by the pillars in front of the hall, looking at her quietly, with sparks in his eyes. He couldn't stand still, and it was clear that he was waiting for her.

Luo Lingyu was in a daze for a moment before she walked over. Her expression was calm, and she didn't intend to talk to him, so she just brushed past him.

Lu Yun reached out and grabbed her.

Luo Lingyu raised her eyes.

Seeing this, the maids immediately lowered their heads and silently retreated as if they were invisible, so as not to disturb the young man and the young lady. Luo Lingyu saw that Lu Yun's eyes were tired and she was distracted. Then she saw that Lu Yun was frowning and seemed to be hesitant. After hesitating for a long time, he handed her a sachet. Luo Lingyu took it curiously. It was heavy. She opened it and saw that it was full of silver.

Lu Yun coughed and blushed. For a celebrity like him who was always admired by others but never admired by others, this was probably the first time he had done this. His voice was a little stiff: "Didn't you say you had no money? Take it..."
