Chapter 134: The Greatest Confrontation

The sky was filled with a soft orange-yellow hue, the last brilliant glow of the sun before it sets.

The arrival of Wei Zhou was not what Lu Mingchao expected.

It is easy to add icing on the cake, but difficult to provide timely assistance.

Lu Mingchao will remember the kindness of Wei Jia in informing him of the situation.

"Thank you, Brother Wei, for coming to tell me." Lu Yao bowed to Wei Zhou solemnly.

Lu Yao's ideas are the same as Lu Mingchao's.

Take revenge if you have a grudge.

Remember the kindness you have received.

No matter how small the favor is, it is precious.

Even though they already knew the situation in the town very well.

But this is a thoughtful gesture after all.

Wei Zhou returned the greeting with a gentle and steady tone, "It's just a trivial matter, why worry about it? Brother Lu and I have known each other for many years, how could I not know about the affairs of the Lu family?"

"Brother Lu has a simple character and is down-to-earth. He would never do anything dirty."

"Brother Lu, you should be more careful. This may be caused by someone with bad intentions. Xiang Zhuang is brandishing a sword to attack Pei Gong."

Lu Yao nodded and said, "Master Cheng will probably report to the police. If the police see Brother Wei here, it will have a bad impact on Brother Wei."

"Brother Wei, you should go home first. When things are done, I will personally host a banquet for you."

Wei Zhou's voice was still as calm as a lake without waves. "I have a clear conscience in being friends with Brother Lu."

Lu Yao smiled slightly and personally sent Wei Zhou to the carriage. "I know Brother Wei has nothing to fear, but I don't want to implicate him."

Wei Zhou said helplessly, "I'll send you new information as soon as I get it."

"Thank you." Lu Yao bowed again.

Wei Zhou stepped onto the carriage on a low stool, and the wheels creaked forward.

The wind blew up the car curtains, and it seemed like someone stuck his head out and looked back at the Lu family from afar.

Only after the carriage went farther and farther away did Lu Yao turn around and return home.

"The friends that my second brother makes are very good." Lu Mingchao said pertinently.

Lu Mingchao recalled Wei Tang's description of Wei Zhou.

It looks like a bowl of white porridge, except that it is white.

Well, she glanced at it inconspicuously, and it was very white, glowing white.

As for the brain, it is like a bowl of porridge. After so many years of reading, even a little ink is absorbed.

She disagrees.

Wei Zhou's speech and behavior were polite and measured, and he had his own rules.

The temper is like a bowl of white porridge, light, bland and flat.

I don't know whether he has a calm temper or not, but the tone of his voice is indeed calm.

Lu Yao pinched his brows and said, "Wei Zhou has always liked quietness and rarely sets foot in noisy places. As long as there is no urgent need, he will only go between the academy and Wei's house. It is basically impossible for him to hear about the latest news in Lianhua Town so quickly."

"Wei Tang?" Lu Mingchao understood the elegant meaning from the sound of the strings.

Lu Yao nodded, "That's about it."

"When I was delivering the porridge, I noticed there was another person in the carriage."

Lu Mingchao blinked.

A girl's mind is reserved and firm.

From beginning to end, Wei Tang did not behave rudely at all.

Her second brother is both a flower on the mountain and a piece of wood.

"I will prepare a gift some other day and I will go with my brother to express my gratitude."

"good."

The orange color at the horizon seemed to dim again, and the sky gradually sank into deep darkness.

The Wei government's carriage unexpectedly encountered officials on the mountain road.

The carriage moved to the side of the road. Wei Tang had a worried look on her face, unable to hide her inner uneasiness. She held the handkerchief tightly in her hand, twisting it around and around.

"Brother, will the Lu family be okay?"

Wei Tang bit his lower lip, raised his eyes, and asked with courage.

She was really panicked and urgently needed a definite answer.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Wei Zhou saw Wei Tang's expression and sighed softly, "No."

"Tangtang, I went to report the news. Lu Yao was neither shocked nor panicked, which means he was prepared."

Wei Tang breathed a sigh of relief and murmured to himself, "That's good, that's good."

Wei Zhou frowned, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

After thinking it over again and again, he finally said, "Tangtang, Lu Yao's future is in Beijing."

"The mountain chief predicted that Lu Yao's extraordinary talent and strong character are rarely seen in the world, and one day he will show his outstanding talent on the road to success."

"Lianhua Town can't keep him, Changhe County can't keep him, and the same is true for the prefectural capital."

"Tangtang, he's not the kind of person who would indulge in a romantic relationship."

"Let go of the thought as soon as possible."

Lu Yao.

He really looks like an immortal in an ancient painting.

Wei Tang's cheeks turned red and then pale, and gradually, his eyes filled with tears. He lowered his head and pursed his lips tightly to prevent sobs from escaping.

After a while, Wei Tang said softly, "Brother, can't we go to the capital?"

A hint of pity flashed across Wei Zhou's calm eyes.

But, a short pain is worse than a long pain.

"Tangtang, he doesn't need another weakness."

"Not to mention that he has no intention of getting married yet, even if he does, given his personality, he will choose a woman who is on par with him."

"Tangtang, there's no point in forcing people to be backwards compatible."

"You have met Lu Yao's younger sister once. Tell me what your impression of her is."

"Beautiful, gentle and strong." Wei Tang said without hesitation.

Wei Zhou sighed, "Beauty is her least noteworthy quality."

"If my guess is correct, the repeated setbacks suffered by the Sun family in Changhe County were her doing."

Wei Tang's eyes widened in disbelief.

Wei Zhou nodded. "No surprise, that's it."

"Similarly, Lu Yao will also need a wise and prudent wife to help him in his future life."

"Tangtang, you can't catch up with Lu Yao's pace."

"Even if you risk your dignity for your brother and ask Lu Yao to agree to the marriage as a close friend, how will you cope with the situation when you arrive in the capital city full of officials and nobles? How will you greet and see off people? Will you rely on Lu Yao to protect you all the time?"

"If Lu Yao's right hand had not been seriously injured, he would have already won the imperial examination and become the youngest Jinshi in Daqian."

"All he lacks is family background, and now his biological little sister is back."

"Miss Lu has only been back for a month, but she has already become famous in Changhe County. Miss Lu will gradually make up for the family background that Lu Yao lacks."

"There is nothing greater than this."

"Tangtang, that's all I have to say for you, brother."

Wei Tang couldn't hold back the tears anymore and they burst out.

All along, she couldn't help feeling lucky.

She thought, what if she could touch the person she loved by standing on tiptoe?

But her brother told her bluntly that there was no reason to force others to be backward compatible.

Just like her, looking up at Lu Yao, hoping that Lu Yao could look down at her.

But why did Lu Yao lower his eyes to look at her?

The moment the carriage stopped in front of Wei's house, Wei Tang wiped away his tears.

The officials also arrived at Lu's home in Changxi Village.

"Mr. Cheng of Lianhua Town sued Lu Lei of Changxi Village for seducing his daughter. Under the order of the county magistrate, Lu Lei was summoned to court for trial."

"May I ask, sir, if I may drive my brother for a while?" Lu Yao asked with his head lowered.

The officer turned slightly to avoid the salute.

County Magistrate Xu and Team Leader Shi specifically instructed that they should be invited politely.

He can still distinguish between inviting and arresting.

"Lu Dalang is only a suspect and has not yet been convicted, so it's fine."

"Mom, A'yan and I will go with my second brother to see my eldest brother off. You and Dad should take good care of grandma." Lu Mingchao said softly.

With red eyes, Yunniang watched her children get on the carriage.

If you do that again, I will kill you.]
