Chapter 587 Xiao Licking Dog?
Erya finally succeeded in persuading Song Yubai.
Just as she expected.
Except for Song Yubai who was annoying and always asked about her background, Erya was very satisfied with everything else.
Song Yubai said that he had paid hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, so couldn't he ask this question?
Yes, Song Yubai is a ruthless person.
He took out all the wealth he had accumulated over the years that he could use.
Erya refused to reveal a single word.
But a few months later, when a masked general named Lu stood out in the King of Yan's camp, he said that he knew!
They all have the surname Lu!
Facing his question, Erya smiled slightly, neither admitting nor denying, "Guess."
Song Yubai: "..."
Erya thought to herself, her father was the same. There were so many surnames in the world, why couldn't he take any other? Why did he have to have the same surname as her mother, and what's more, he was called Lu Cong.
To be disrespectful, he is too much of a bootlicker.
No wonder so many people like the mother. In the end, the father wins and his position is stable.
Lick it till the end and you’ll find everything.
Erya is very busy.
She doesn't get involved much in military supplies now. She will only help if it's extremely urgent and hard to find elsewhere.
Because protecting yourself is the most important thing.
If something happens to her, even if she becomes extremely wealthy in the future, it will not be able to make up for the pain and regret in her mother's heart.
So, they all need to be fine.
Arya finds a caravan to deliver things to the northwest.
Lu Qiniang would send her a message telling her that something was missing over there.
Erya would buy the things and have the caravan transport them.
Of course, it is not just for personal use, but more for business.
Lu Qiniang also found someone to open a grocery store in Changzhou.
The scale cannot be compared with Sihai, but it is still a business. It can make a surplus of 180 taels of silver every month, which is enough to support the family.
However, the shop has a manager and clerks, and Lu Qiniang basically does not interfere in the management of the shop.
Lu Qiniang's grocery store alone is actually not enough to consume Erya's "big spending" once.
Otherwise, why do people say that Erya has a good business mind?
She sent people to follow the caravan and ask what they needed at every grocery store they passed along the way.
She developed clients along the way and really made it happen.
And every time, she would ask Lu Qiniang to help her buy things from the northwest and transport them to Guangzhou Prefecture.
Lu Qiniang lived a very easy life in Changzhou.
Because she is Xiao Yan's "widow", there are always people to help her with most things.
The shopkeeper and the clerk we found were all extremely reliable.
If she was unreliable and had any "bad deeds" in the past, someone would definitely tell Lu Qinniang.
So for Lu Qiniang, although Xiao Yan was not with her, she could feel the warmth brought by Xiao Yan at all times.
Lu Qinniang is a person who can't sit still.
So she raised pigs, grew vegetables, accompanied Xiaoman to study, practiced martial arts, and followed Sanya in riding and shooting.
When they were in Qiongzhou, Xiao Yan taught her well.
So after coming to the northwest, Lu Qiniang did not waste time learning how to ride a horse.
Hu Rui, who was already ten years old this year, smiled and said to Lu Qiniang, "Aunt, are you waiting for the barbarians to attack? Are you going to go into battle?"
"Why not?" Lu Qiniang laughed. "If you really need me, I won't refuse."
Every man has his share of responsibility for the rise and fall of his country.
She, as a woman, is also responsible.
Zhang Heyao found a local old man to teach Xiaoman.
Lu Qiniang often accompanied her to learn.
I have to say that although Mr. Jiang has never participated in the imperial examinations and has no official title, his lectures are easy to understand and he is always cheerful.
Lu Qin's mother had no idea how all that knowledge was instilled into her mind while he was just explaining it so casually.
Although she didn't learn very advanced things, she still learned a lot.
——Xiaoman left almost nothing behind.
Xiaoman is really, really smart.
Lu Qiniang felt that it must be because she was his biological mother and looked at her son with special love.
In short, it is smart and very considerate.
If it were an ordinary child, who was only four years old, he would have forgotten a lot after Zhang Heyao left for a few months.
But Xiaoman didn't.
Xiaoman writes letters to Zhang Heyao every now and then.
Although he knows a lot of words, his little hands are weak and he has trouble holding a pen.
However, he always lay over the table, writing letters to Zhang Heyao in a serious manner, expressing his joys, sorrows, anger and happiness, one letter after another, and he could write for an entire afternoon.
Zhang Heyao would always reply seriously, reminding him not to slack off in his studies and would also bring him various gifts.
You know what, it really works.
Every time after receiving a letter from Zhang Heyao, Lu Qiniang could clearly feel that Xiaoman would study more seriously.
Taking care of her children, raising pigs, opening a grocery store and improving herself, Lu Qiniang lived a very fulfilling life in Changzhou.
Only when it is late at night and I am lying in bed will I have time to think of Xiao Yan.
San Ya said that the General Lu who seemed to appear out of nowhere beside Prince Yan must be her father.
However, because Xiao Yan was "dead" and this "General Lu" used a long sword instead of a spear, no one associated it with Xiao Yan.
"They don't know that my father is better with a sword than a spear."
San Ya looked proud when she mentioned him, and she only wished she could grow wings and fly over to fight alongside Xiao Yan.
And every time Lu Qiniang thought of Xiao Yan, she couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth.
Xiao Yan, you must come back safe and sound.
Our son has grown up and is very well behaved and smart.
But deep down, she was also a little worried.
——Xiaoman is really in love with Zhang Heyao.
Why.
Putting herself in Xiao Yan's shoes, Lu Qin's mother began to feel uncomfortable.
But in the face of life and death, everything else is trivial.
Lu Qiniang still hopes most that Xiao Yan can return safely.
It is said that the war outside is very intense now.
But the emperor didn't seem to care about it.
After the draft, half a year later, there is a second round, which has caused public outrage.
——In this family, the young man was drafted into the army, and the young woman was chosen to enter the palace. Do we still have a chance for the common people to survive?
Moreover, during the new emperor's last beauty pageant, more than 30,000 women entered the capital, and as many as 6,000 remained.
This number is really unimaginable.
In short, no matter how much war there is, the emperor’s enjoyment has not been reduced at all.
You say he doesn't care, but he is afraid of death.
The emperor was not allowed to leave the palace, and anyone entering the palace, including court officials, would be strictly searched.
Lu Qiniang thought that the dog emperor was guilty after all.
He also knew that he had done something bad and was afraid that someone would assassinate him.
How could the late emperor, such a good man, be so foolish as to leave the country to such a person?
"Mom, mom, let's go riding!" San Ya called Lu Qin's mother outside.
Lu Qiniang hurried out and glared at her, "Keep your voice down, your brother is studying with the teacher!"
"I understand. Let's go and ride horses." Hu Rui was still standing behind San Ya.
"OK."
They didn't know that it was just an ordinary trip, but something thrilling happened.
