Chapter 62 Apologize

This house is actually far from the luxurious mansions of wealthy families in the prefectures and counties. It only occupies a spacious area and has many houses. It also has a front yard and a back yard separated by high walls, which looks a bit as grand as a wealthy family.

Enter the hall and sit down with guests and hosts.

At this time, the butler who had previously sent back to the house had already quietly rushed back to report the matter to Old Lady Jin and asked him to release Jin Dafu's wife from the woodshed immediately.

Lu Jinping's sister was named Lu Fengniang. She was locked in the Jin family's firewood shed in the past two days and said she wanted to send her to the yamen to punish her. Moreover, the gold bracelet was worth tens of thousands of people. According to the Tang Dynasty, she was afraid that her head would be exiled thousands of miles away. She was so scared that she was crying all day long, hoping that her husband would pay the money and let him go out. The Jin family just wanted to force the money, so she did not send her to the yamen immediately, just waiting for Jin Dafu. Jin Dafu said that he went back to Fangzhou to withdraw money and went directly to Tongzhou to find Lu Jinping. Therefore, the time was delayed a little longer. The people of the Jin family kept coercing, almost driving Lu Fengniang crazy.

That afternoon, she was crying while covering her face in the woodshed. Suddenly the door of the woodshed opened. After Mrs. Jin came in with a few wives, concubines and daughter-in-law, she knelt all over the ground. Mrs. Jin said with a sad face: "My rich wife, I have wronged you. Please forgive us for this experience in my opinion of the same clan. We are willing to compensate you for all the losses. I have apologized for you here."

After saying that, Dongdong kowtowed and the daughter-in-law behind her kowtowed.

Lu Fengniang was shocked and didn't understand what was going on for a moment.

Old Mrs. Jin said: "That bracelet was definitely not stolen by you. It was just that the servants were suspicious and thought it was you, so they took the initiative to lock you up here. I just got the news and came to apologize. Please don't remember the villain's monster and forgive me for this trick. Old body has eyes and I don't know that you are the lord's sister. I am really ashamed and ashamed. I also ask your wife, you forgive me..."

This made Lu Fengniang widen her eyes in surprise, not knowing what was going on. She stood up from the haystack in panic, wanted to go forward to support her but didn't dare, and stood timidly: "This is...where did this start..."

Old Mrs. Jin knelt on the ground and said pitifully: "We blamed you wrongly. These servants are lawless and locked up people at will. They said they are the Lord's sister, even ordinary villagers, so they can't do this. I have tied up these evil slaves who detained Lord's sister and hung them up. Waiting for your disposal by the Lord's wife and wife, you must not forgive them easily!"

Lu Fengniang vaguely guessed what happened, but he couldn't believe it. The lord they said should refer to his younger brother Lu Jinping. Could it be that his younger brother has come? Impossible! No one takes him seriously even in Tongzhou, so why did he come to Fangzhou so prestigious? But if it weren't for him, who could be called lord and willing to come forward to deal with his unjust case?"

Lu Fengniang stammered and asked: "Who are you talking about..., Lord...?"

Mrs. Jin hurriedly said, "It's your younger brother, Mr. Lu, a man from Tongzhou, came to Kaiguo County. He brought people to see you. Our master has already gone to the entrance of the village to welcome him. He is about to enter the village, and you brothers can be reunited. Sister, Mr. Jue, you must forgive me and the master for being unscrupulous. Give me a way to live and give our whole family a way to live. I thank you here."

After saying that, Old Mrs. Jin took her wife and mother-in-law and kowtowed again.

Lu Fengniang finally understood that it must be that her younger brother had risen again and received attention from the government, which made the wife of the chief clan of the Jin family so frightened to apologize. Of course, she knew that what the old lady Jin said just now was just Li Daitaozun, who wanted to put all the blame on her. Previously, she and Mr. Jin had threatened herself to pay the money bracelet in person, otherwise she would hand it over to the government for law, but now she has completely pushed it.

She remembered the fright and pain she had been in the past few days, and thought of her younger brother coming to support her, which scared these people to this end. She felt aggrieved and happy in her heart, and wiped her tears and said, "Get up first and take me to see my younger brother."

Old Mrs. Jin quickly got up, took a new set of folded mattress skirt from her daughter-in-law behind her, held it in her hands and sent it to Lu Fengniang, saying, "Madam, this is a new set of mattress skirts. It is my daughter's new clothes for the New Year. It has just been sewn and has not been put on yet. If the lady doesn't dislike it, she wants to give it to her. The lady's clothes have not been washed these days, should she change into this clothes before going?"

Lu Fengniang didn't care about those things at this time. She just wanted to see her younger brother quickly, figure out what was going on, and leave this place as soon as possible, and she felt like a nightmare. She shouted: "You have tortured me like this these days, want to change a good set of clothes to cover it up? Humph! Take me to see my younger brother quickly, and let me talk about the others when you meet them!"

Old Mrs. Jin was very embarrassed and agreed repeatedly, retracting her hand awkwardly, thinking about how to apologize again and let the other party vent his anger to forgive him. At this moment, the maid ran in quickly: "Old lady, the master said, let you take the lord's sister quickly, the lord and the others have arrived at the lobby."

Old Mrs. Jin hurriedly bowed and laughed, accompanying Lu Fengniang to the front yard lobby.

Lu Fengniang was both nervous and excited. After both her parents died, only she and her younger brother were left, and she married far away. Her younger brother was still young at that time and was really worried that her younger brother would not be taken care of. Although her younger brother inherited the title he passed down from his ancestors, he was already empty and his family business had almost been defeated. In order to restore his family business, he sold all the remaining property and land except the old house and bribed him to become an official. Unexpectedly, he was wasted and was so angry that he was so angry.

She vomited blood on the spot and died of death. After receiving the news of her death, she cried and was about to rush to handle the funeral for her younger brother. Then she continued the news that her younger brother had come back to life again. At the same time, her husband did not allow him to leave Fangzhou, nor was she allowed to help her younger brother, saying that she married to the Jin family now and was from the Jin family. The Lu family's affairs had nothing to do with her, so she was not allowed to ask about it, and she was not allowed to give money to rice. So she could only cry, but her younger brother, whom she had never seen, unexpectedly regained his momentum and came to save herself.

She went outside the lobby with mixed feelings. At first glance, she saw her younger brother Jin Dao Ma sitting in the middle. An official in an official robe was sitting next to her. Two black-robed heads stood behind her, and dozens of constables stood on both sides, carrying knives, majestic. Her husband Jin Dafu stood beside her, smiling proudly. But Old Master Jin, who has always been arrogant, shrank like a sheep, standing sideways, without even sitting in a seat.

When Lu Fengniang first saw these constables, she was really shocked. She subconsciously felt that she was coming to catch her? But after thinking about it, she realized that these people were not only not here to catch her, but should be the helpers brought by her younger brother. Because their sharp eyes were staring at Old Master Jin standing there dejectedly, rather than staring at herself.

Lu Fengniang felt wide open, and she stepped in, looked at Lu Jinping, and called out sadly, "Brother!" She rushed over and hugged him desperately, and cried loudly, "They wronged me! I didn't steal the gold bracelet, wuwu..."

Although Lu Jinping knew that the scholar he bent over had such an older sister, he had never met her before. When he saw her rushing over and hugging her, he knew that it was her.
