Chapter 11 The Fish Takes the Bait

Chapter 11 The Fish Takes the Bait
Lu House.

"Master, Master, someone has sent a message." Jiang Xiao ran all the way into the courtyard. Just as he was about to salute, Lu Jingzhi, who was sitting under the tree, stopped him with a gesture to tell him to hurry up.

"Sir, someone from Zhenxi Shop sent a message saying that someone just went to inquire about buying a shop."

"Just wait for the fish to take the bait. If someone comes to you later, just ask his lady to come and negotiate in person before selling the shop."

"Yes." Jiangxiao bowed his hands and retreated.

Miss? ?It turns out that the young master bought such a shop for his future wife!Sorry, I can't find the one from this morning, so it must be this one. But if the young master robbed someone else's shop, would they still be willing to be their young master's wife? ?
Outside the Lu residence.

"Can this little brother help me call Mr. Jiangxiao in the mansion?" He handed the door guard a tael of silver.

"Please wait a moment." The guard accepted the money and went to the house.

"Master Jiangxiao, someone is looking for you at the door." The guard saw Jiangxiao just as he was halfway there.

"Okay, I'll go right away." Jiangxiao ran out the door in a hurry. He couldn't wait to find out which family the future young master's wife would be from.

"Are you looking for me?" Jiangxiao saw Uncle Fu standing on the left side of the door, dressed simply but decently, with a face full of vicissitudes but wisdom, and eyes that were kind but still sharp.

"Yes, I am Uncle Fu, the steward of the Xia Mansion. On the orders of the second son of the family, I came here to ask if the shop that Mr. Jiangxiao bought in the morning can be sold to a few people?" Uncle Fu folded his hands and cupped his hands.

Jiangxiao returned the greeting and said, "Young Master?"

Shouldn't she be a young lady? ?Wait, Xia Mansion, that’s right.

"My young master has told me that if he wants a shop in Zhenxi, he should let your young lady come and negotiate in person."

Uncle Fu was a little embarrassed. He had already said that he was following the orders of his young master, so why did he involve his young lady.Upon hearing what Mr. Jiangxiao said, it was obvious that he had known for a long time that the one who really wanted to buy the shop was his own lady. This was obviously for his own young lady, so he had to go back and report it to the master.

"Let me go back and report."

"it is good."

Jiangxiao also went back to report to his son.

"Sir, Uncle Fu, the steward of the Xia Mansion, came just now. He said that he came to inquire about the Zhenxi Shop on the order of his second master. His subordinates told him to ask his lady to come and talk in person, and he went back to report."

"Well, I got it. You go down. Someone will be here to deliver the message soon." Lu Jingzhi knew that the fox who raised the little fox would never let go of Zhenxi's shop.It turns out that it was Miss Xia who knocked someone out, tied her up, and humiliated her with money yesterday. It’s interesting~
Fangfu.

It was almost evening when Uncle Fu went back. He wanted to report it directly to his master and then go talk to the young lady. Unexpectedly, he met his young lady who was going to Jinxiu Pavilion for dinner on the way.

"Uncle Fu, what's going on? Have you found out?" Xia Wan asked first.

"I found it, that is... the old slave said that he came to inquire about the store in Zhenxi on the order of his master, but the other party said that if he wants to buy the store, I will let you talk to me in person."

Xia Wan pondered for a moment, it was just for herself, she didn't seem to have offended anyone recently.

"Uncle Fu, which company did you ask about that bought the shop in Zhenxi?"

"It was bought by the Jiangxiao guard of the Lu family on behalf of his young master."

Lu Jingyi, this is easy to handle. Although I don't know why I am asking for trouble, there should be no ill intentions and it will be fine if I go to the meeting.

Xia Wan nodded to show that she understood, and said by the way, "I will talk to my father about this later during the meal."Fu Bo nodded and retreated.

Xia Wan didn't mention the store in Zhenxi until after dinner. She had no intention of letting her family know about it. Once her family knew about it, she wouldn't be able to go there. Based on her family's pampering attitude towards her, she would probably just destroy the store in Zhendong. Freed up for her to run.And since the other party has made it clear that she should go, she must go no matter what, otherwise she might not be able to get the shop in Zhenxi. This matter also involves the Lu family, which is not easy.

Late at night.

Listen to Snow Pavilion.

"Xia Yu, you go to the Lu Mansion privately, find the night guard, and ask him to explain to his master that they will meet at Xiangrui Tower in the morning." Agree, and choose the address of the conversation in Xiangrui Building, so that if something goes wrong, you can deal with it calmly.

"Yes." After saying that, he left the yard and climbed over the wall with a light attack.

Lu House.

"Hello, I'm looking for the Jiangxiao guard in the mansion." He said and handed the guard some silver.

"Girl, wait a moment." The guard waved his hand and went to find the Jiangxiao guards.

"Jiangxiao Guard, there is a girl at the door looking for you."

"Come here." Jiangxiao started her Qinggong and rushed to the gate.

What caught his eye was a man with watery eyes, but with an air of talkative coldness. He seemed to be able to see through everything. His skin was like gelatin. He was wearing a light purple dress and a pair of red lips. Every movement seemed to be dancing.Jiangxiao didn't dare to continue looking at her because the woman's sharp gaze had already been directed at her.

Jiang Xiaogong cupped his hands and said. "What do you want me to do with you, girl?"

"My lady asked me to pass on a message. I will make an appointment with your young master tomorrow at Xiangrui Building to discuss the Zhenxi Shop." After saying that, he left.

"So indifferent, I didn't even say a word, hum!" Jiangxiao murmured in a low voice. After muttering, she went back to report to her son.

"Sir, just now the lady of the Xia Mansion sent a maid to tell you that her lady has made an appointment with you tomorrow at Xiangrui Building to discuss the Zhenxi Shop."

"Okay, I understand. Go and send a message to my mother, saying that I have something important to do tomorrow and can't accompany her to the temple to worship. Let her go with her aunt."

"Yes, my subordinates will go now."

Furong Court.

"Madam, the young master asked his subordinates to send a message. The young master said that he has something urgent to do tomorrow and cannot accompany you to the temple to worship. He asked you to go with Mrs. Lu."

"No, tell him that he must go tomorrow. This little brat always gets into trouble every time I ask him to go with me. When does it really happen?" Helian Yunhua said angrily.

Mrs. Lu on the side persuaded her, "Maybe Jingzhi is really in a hurry, and it will be the same for our sisters-in-law tomorrow."

Helian Yunhua didn't say anything when her younger siblings said this, and waved her hand to signal Jiangxiao to leave.

As early as Jiangxiao, I knew that the young master would definitely be scolded. Every time his wife asked him to accompany him to the temple, he always had to shirk her. After shirking, he would definitely cause trouble and let his wife know about it. He couldn't get away with it every time.

But this time it was different. This time the young master was unwilling to go to the temple because of the appointment with Xia Mansion's daughter. Then he became happy again. Soon his young master would have a young wife.

Jiang Xiao hummed a tune and walked all the way back to the yard.

If Xia Yu knew what Jiang Xiao was thinking at this moment, she would probably come up and slap him twice to wake him up and let him know what dangers are in the world.I dare to have such a dream, huh!
