Chapter 54 Where is Lu Songli?
Chapter 54
The two of them soon came to the back door again. Lu Songli handed him the snack in her hand and said, "I'm sorry for putting you through this today. I'll treat you to a good meal at the restaurant later. You can bring Liu Erxi, Chen Jinshui and the others with you." The snacks were made of glutinous rice. She took quite a lot, which should be enough for the three of them to have lunch.
Qin Sheng glared at her. If he wanted to go to a restaurant, did he need her to take him?
Lu Songli sent the person away and had a quick lunch at Tian's house shortly after returning. After lunch, her eldest brother went to Tian's herbal medicine shop.
Lu Songli was almost ready to leave.
When he learned that she was leaving, Lu Xiao couldn't bear to let her go. He held her thighs with both hands and refused to let go. "Auntie, I can't bear to leave you. Please don't leave, okay?"
When Tian heard this, she called out to him, "Xiaoxiao, be obedient!"
Lu Xiao turned his head, pouted his lips, and looked like he was not going to listen.
Tian looked at him seriously.
Lu Xiao's eyes instantly turned red. He sniffed and said to Lu Songli, "Aunt, please take me back. I miss my grandparents."
Lu Songli smiled bitterly. If she were going back directly, it would be fine to take the little guy with her, but she was not going back. It would be inconvenient to take him with her. What if the little guy saw a bloody scene and got scared?
Lu Songli touched the little guy's head, then squatted down and discussed with him, "Why don't you stay with your parents and grandma for a few more days, and I'll come to pick you up in a few days, okay?"
When the little guy heard her refusal, he burst into tears and sobbed.
Lu Songli hugged him helplessly, patted his back gently, and comforted him silently.
She looked up and asked Tian, "Sister-in-law, when will my father-in-law come back?"
Tian replied, "Soon. My father and eldest brother are going not far this time. My mother estimates that they should be home in five or six days at most."
Lu Songli nodded and said to the little guy, "Okay, don't cry. You heard it too. In five or six days, when your grandpa and uncle come back, your aunt will come to pick you up."
When the Tian family father and son come back, they will definitely bring back a batch of high-quality medicinal herbs. It would be nice for her to pick some out then. She had just made an agreement with her eldest brother to ask him to help collect some good medicinal herbs. She had given him the list of herbs and the banknotes.
After crying for a while and feeling better, the little guy felt a little embarrassed. When he heard her words, he raised his little face and promised her, "Then, little aunt, you must come to pick up Xiaoxiao."
Lu Songli promised him, "Definitely."
Only then did the little guy agree to let go.
Tian came over, picked up the little guy, and said embarrassedly, "Little sister, I'll take him into the house to change his clothes."
"Sister-in-law, go and do your own thing."
Taking advantage of this time, Lu Songli went into the guest room that the Tian family had arranged for her to rest and changed her clothes. Mo Bing put on her original clothes and imitated her makeup and hair style. Finally, she put on a veil and let Tao Xing help her get into the carriage she had originally come from.
After Tian changed her son's clothes, she found that he was sleepy again after crying after dinner. After coaxing him to sleep, she came out and found her sister-in-law still in the guest room. She didn't pay much attention to it and went to the kitchen to boil medicine for her mother.
When she heard some noise in the yard, she walked out to take a look. At this time, Mo Bing had already stepped into the Tian family's gate.
She saw Lu Songli and was about to ask a few questions, but was stopped by Lu Songli's question, "Where's Xiaoxiao?"
"He fell asleep. Children tend to get sleepy after eating, and he was exhausted from crying while holding you just now. He dozed off when I changed his clothes."
Hearing this, Lu Songli laughed.
When Tian was asked this question, she completely forgot what she wanted to ask.
Mo Bing's carriage had been gone for about half a minute when Lu Songli came out of the Tian family wearing a veil hat.
At the gate, she turned her head to look somewhere, and when she saw someone, she paused slightly before getting into her eldest brother's carriage.

When Mo Bing, wearing Lu Songli's clothes and a veil, was helped by a maid to get on the original carriage, she was seen from afar by people who were lying in ambush in the distance.
The other party quickly ordered, "Go tell the Fourth Young Master that the target has appeared."
On this day, a strange incident occurred on the shortest road from Ping'an Town to Chang'an City. Two young men were guarding the three-way intersection in the middle section. Anyone who tried to take the shortest road in the middle would be informed that the road had collapsed, causing a timber merchant's truck to overturn. The long and short timber had blocked the road, making it impossible to pass.
Adhering to the principle of "less trouble is more trouble", the locals all chose to take the side road. Although it was a bit of a detour, it was smooth. There were also some young people who insisted on going to take a look, and they did not stop them. In the end, these young people all turned back cursing.
But strangely, when the carriage with the Lu family logo was about to enter this road, it was not stopped or turned away.
"Why did the carriage stop?" Mo Bing, who was in the carriage, felt that the carriage stopped for no reason. His heart skipped a beat, but he asked calmly.
The driver's voice was full of embarrassment, "Second Miss, some unkind person has dug a big hole in the road ahead, and there are a lot of wood scattered around the hole. The carriage can't pass through now." If you want to pass, you must move the wood away and fill the hole.
The driver's mind was full of the road conditions in front of him, and he didn't realize that only the "Second Young Lady" and Tao Xing had entered the carriage at first, and then it was Mo Bing's voice that came out from inside.
Just when they had not decided whether to turn back or solve the current trouble before leaving, Zhao Bin appeared with a group of people.
Chen Rong was the first to react, "Mr. Zhao Si, it's you, what do you want to do?"
"I don't have any plans, I just want to ask your second young lady for cooperation on something." Zhao Bin said as he approached their carriage with ill intentions.
Chen Rong and the others immediately got off the carriage and stopped him. "Our Second Miss has nothing to offer in cooperation with Mr. Zhao Si. Mr. Zhao Si, please think twice before you act. Don't alarm our Second Miss, or else our Master will not let this go."
Zhao Bin got angry when he heard this, "Get out!"
Chen Rong and others were forced aside by the people he brought with him, and some of them were even subdued.
It was obvious that Zhao Bin came prepared.
Zhao Bin shouted at the carriage, "Miss Lu Er, please come out. Don't let my people go up to invite you. That would be rude."
The carriage remained motionless.
"If you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink for it!" Zhao Bin sneered, "Miss Lu Er, don't blame my people for being rude."
At a glance from Zhao Bin, the people around him boarded the carriage, lifted the curtain and went in to get the person.
"Fourth Young Master, the person inside is not Miss Lu Er."
Seeing that it was Mo Bing who came out, Zhao Bin's face darkened, "Why are you here? Where is Lu Songli?" He realized that something was wrong at this time.
"Zhao Bin, I heard you were looking for me?" A female voice with a hint of sarcasm sounded behind them.
