Chapter Twenty Eight
It's not that Jiang Wu didn't take it out. When she got this brand, she felt that the pattern of this brand seemed to have been seen somewhere, maybe in a certain book, maybe somewhere. So she kept searching in many ways, but she kept searching.
The true origin of this brand has not yet been discovered.
But her intuition told her that this sign was very important and could not be measured by money, so she did not give it to him.
But she didn't expect that this man was like a devil and would kill people at every turn.
Because of the fear just now, Jiang Wu's eyes were still stained with tears, and she looked at him pitifully.
He held the sign and rubbed it carefully, as if to confirm its authenticity.
The sign was given to him, but he didn't leave. Jiang Wu really wanted to ask this god of plague to leave quickly, and she couldn't afford to offend him.
Seeing his slender and beautiful fingers turning the sign and looking at her, she stepped back step by step. She was trembling unconsciously now. She didn't know whether it was from fear or the pain of the neck injury just now.
Time just stood still.
She wanted him to leave quickly and prayed: "I also gave you something. I don't know what it is. You also saw it. I don't know martial arts and I won't pose any threat to you. Please let me go."
, I haven’t seen anyone today, I’m just sleeping.”
He looked at the pitiful Jiang Wu, and she was actually a smart person.
He asked: "Do you still have the pastries from that day? They are quite delicious."
Did he eat the pastry?
Is he hungry?
She nodded subconsciously and said, "It's always available in the kitchen."
"Let the maid bring you one."
Is this person too casual? This is her home!
Now he is an uninvited guest, and he is not polite at all.
But she couldn't, couldn't compete with him. She called Lan Yue in a hoarse voice and asked Lan Yue to bring in cakes.
Lan Yue thought Jiang Wu was hungry, so she quickly brought pastries and hot tea to her.
Jiang Wu opened the door and took the cakes and tea by herself. She was in danger of escaping, and it would not help if Lan Yue came again. It was better to do less than to do more, so she let Lan Yue go.
He was very satisfied that she did not try to be clever and ask her maid to report the news or call for help.
After Jiang Wu gently put the pastry down, she took two steps back and stood beside him. He sat at the table and picked up a piece to look at it, confirming that it was the shape it had that day. He took a bite and frowned slightly.
Jiang Wu kept observing him and saw him frowning. She was afraid that his violent temper would come up again, so she explained anxiously: "I didn't poison him."
He shook his head!
What does shaking your head mean?
"It's not as sweet as that day."
Does he like sweet things?
A grown man rarely likes sweet food, right? Like his father, even a young boy like Jiang Shi doesn't like it.
He is, after all, 18 or 19 years old, and he still likes to eat sweets?
"I made those pastries with my own hands that day. My grandmother likes sweet ones. Today these pastries are always available in the kitchen."
He put down the half-bitten pastry, patted the pastry crumbs on his hand, poured himself a cup of tea, drank it gracefully, and stood up.
Jiang Wu subconsciously took another step back.
He said: "Next time I come, you do it."
Then she turned around and walked to the window. Jiang Wu saw that he didn't have the sign, so she picked it up and handed it to him, "Your sign."
But he didn't pick it up, and just said: "I'll leave it with you first, and I'll come and get it when needed."
She was so angry that her teeth were chattering and she was so crazy. He almost pinched her to death for the sign just now, but now he said he would leave her here. What kind of madness was he just getting mad about? She wanted to throw the sign out in anger, and he almost killed her for it.
Her life, at this moment, she was so casually said to be left here?
Is he teasing her with her life?
This man was too weird, and she thought she didn't dare to make friends with him, and she couldn't afford to offend him. She had just walked around the Palace of Hell for a while, and didn't really want to see him again.
She didn't know the function of this sign, and she didn't want to make friends with him anymore, so she might as well hand over the sign to the government.
But he seemed to understand her intention, and said with a devilish smile: "How dare you! If you don't want everyone in the Jiang family to die, keep this sign safe and don't let anyone discover the existence of this sign."
Although Jiang Wu was very angry, she was obedient and spineless and nodded quickly, not daring to disobey.
He seemed very satisfied with her reaction and said, "Your fiancé is nice, and he even gives you things."
Her mind suddenly buzzed and went blank.
This man first threatened her with the Jiang family, and now even the Cheng family has moved out. He even knew clearly that Cheng Nuobai had given her things. She had never encountered such a terrifying and hidden danger in her previous life.
figure.
Who is he?
She didn't dare to make a bet with the Jiang family and the Cheng family, but she dared not speak out in anger when facing him. She felt that her life was in chaos because of her unintentional actions that day.
After Lu Xiang returned, he invited two women to his bedroom one after another in the middle of the night. People around him were still surprised. Their master had finally enlightened him. Did he know how to find women to have fun?
In the end, I found that the ending was no different from before.
Lu Citron was furious and smashed everything in the house. The two women were not favored for this and were executed.
Everyone was sighing, lamenting that their master's bed was really not that good, and it cost them their lives at every turn.
Jiang Wu also kept this matter in her heart and did not dare to tell anyone.
Because there were marks on her neck, she simply pretended to be sick and did not go out. Even Jiang Wei was rarely seen, and she only asked people to inquire about Lu Citron.
In the end, they all told her that Lu Xiangton was the youngest son of a big businessman. He usually did customs business and his family background was large and wealthy.
Because he was good-looking, romantic and unrestrained, and had charm that was somewhat different from that of the men from the Central Plains, women in the city flocked to him. Most of the men from the Central Plains were stick to the rules, rigid in tradition, and abided by ethics, so there was no way he could be as free and romantic as he was.
Therefore, after he returned from Guanzhong, he bought Langhua Pavilion in Jizhou City and often invited actors to support famous actors. Langhua Pavilion was very lively.
Although he is a romantic person, he is bold and generous and has a gentle temperament. He believes that all women in the world should be cherished and treated with tenderness.
He did not hesitate to support those women who had miserable and homeless backgrounds, but he did not infringe on them, and he respected women quite a bit.
Lu Citron is just a businessman. He has no intention of living in a high hall or a temple to feel sad. He has no intention of fighting in the rivers and lakes to find it bloody. He is just a rich man who does not know martial arts and does not take exams.
These information feedbacks are definitely not the same person as the Lu Citron that Jiang Wu knew. If they are really the same person, then this Lu Citron does have two sides, and his personality is so elusive. Which one is the real him?
After a few days, when the traces were almost gone, her condition was almost healed.
My father sent someone to tell him that he would have a rest tomorrow. He heard about the incident where several girls from the Jiang family went to the Cheng family and were ridiculed for their clothes. He just got his salary and paid the regular money from his father's school, saying that he was going to take some girls with him.
Go to Jinlu Pavilion in Jizhou City to buy clothes.
When the girls heard that they could buy clothes from Jinlu Pavilion, they were all happy.
The next day Jiang Lu led the three daughters of the Jiang family out. Before going out, Tang said goodbye. Tang asked Jiang Lu if he had brought enough money. If he didn't bring enough, Tang would have to contribute. After all, the Jiang family had another problem.
It’s not that I really can’t afford Jinluge’s clothes, it’s just that I don’t think it’s necessary given the status of the Jiang family.
Now the Jiang family has become a relative of the Cheng family, and they are going to watch the dragon boat race in two days. The girls have grown up and want to lose face. It is time to buy some decent clothes.
Jiang Lu confidently said that the storage was enough.
Mrs. Tang thought that her eldest son was finally sensible and reliable now.
This time the three girls all wanted to hang out outside, so they all prepared curtains and hats.
Jiang Lu is not outstanding in career and political achievements, but he has an upright and honest temperament and never minces words. Although he is not very reliable in his work, he is not as calm as the eldest son of a big family. However, he is very considerate to the younger generations of the Jiang family.
Well, except for being strict with Jiang Wei's martial arts, he is very indulgent and loving towards others.
Especially the girls of the Jiang family, he adheres to the concept that girls should be rich.
Therefore, when the girls wanted to go shopping, he had no objection at all and felt that the children's nature should be released.
When he arrived in Jizhou City, Jiang Lu first booked a private room in a restaurant, ordered a lot of things that the girls could not eat at home on weekdays, gave them a full meal, and brought some snacks for the concubine.
Then he took them to choose rouge and gouache. Jiang Wen was not very interested in these rouge and gouache. They were far inferior to modern cosmetics.
On weekdays, Jiang Wu only applied a light powder at most, bought a box of lip balm in fashionable colors, and then helped Jiang Miao choose one or two products that were suitable for her.
Jiang Mei liked these the most, choosing one from the lipstick, black powder and lead powder.
Then the group went to Jinlu Pavilion.
Four people stood in front of the Jinlu Pavilion, going up from the first floor, isn't it a pavilion?
Why is this one building so big?
Standing at the gate, you can see the people coming in and out, all wearing silk and satin, brilliant embroidery, and hairpins. At first glance, they are celebrities who are either rich or noble.
No wonder ordinary people cannot enter here.
Several people looked at each other, seeing that they were all wearing very ordinary home clothes, which were a little priceless, and they actually felt a little bit frightened.
To enter or not to enter?
Finally, it was Jiang Lu who tidied up his robes. Although they were not of the best quality, they were still neatly dressed.
After weighing my wallet, I confidently went in with my head held high.
After entering, the strong smell of various perfumes, dews, and powders hit the nostrils, making Jiang Lu, who often walked among the men's groups, cough twice in discomfort, and frowned at the women walking among the various clothes.
He had already inquired about it. On the first floor, there were women's clothes made by ordinary embroiderers in Jinlu Pavilion. On the second floor, there were clothes made by young ladies in the boudoir. On the third floor, there were clothes made by Mo Yinniang, the owner of Jinlu Pavilion.
.
There were three girls behind him, so he naturally wanted to go inside, but there were too many ladies and girls coming and going, and he was not used to being a man and having to avoid suspicion.
Men rarely come in and out of Jinlu Pavilion, most of them are women. His height of about 180 years old is particularly prominent inside.
When we got to the second floor, there were finally a lot less people, just a few scattered people.
