Chapter 53 053: Treacherous Humanity

Lu Xiang stretched out a finger, her slender index finger was as white and tender as jade fat, and her round nails exuded a pink glow. She pointed to two places on the map, drew two circles lightly, then raised her head, water The bright black eyes looked at Chu Jinyan with some anticipation: "Your Highness, I don't want money, I want to ask Your Highness for help, I want to buy these two mountains."

  Chu Jinyan looked at the place Lu Xiang pointed out.

   "Chongzhou is desolate, and Jinjing County is not rich. What's so good about the mountains there? If you want to buy mountains, wouldn't the ones on the outskirts of the capital be better?"

   "Thank you for your kindness, I only want these two." Lu Xiang smiled slightly and insisted.

   Where did she buy the mountain? She bought good things from the mountain.

   Two iron mines in Chongzhou and Jinchang counties.

In her previous life, these two mines were in Xiao Muheng's hands. Although they were not big mines, iron was valuable. Because of Xiao Muheng's doubts, she persistently inquired for him many times, and finally confirmed that they were two high-quality mines. Iron ore, helped him get it at the lowest price.

  In this life, she had long planned to hold Xiao Muheng in her own hands before Xiao Muheng found out, and strangled his biggest trump card in the cradle.

  Lu Xiang's original plan was to join forces with Qiao Jingru first. After all, the eldest brother of the Qiao family is a good businessman. If he wants to buy two mountains, he will definitely find a way. Chu Jinyan's conditions are very precious, and she doesn't want to waste it. But today he suddenly appeared, and he looked so easy to talk, and he could give her so much money. It's just a trivial matter to want to help collect the two mountains.

   After all, as he said, those two places are not rich, and the two mountains are even more deserted there, just because it is difficult for her to start in other places.

   If she was in Yangning City, Lu Xiang would go directly to ask her grandmother.

  Although Chu Jinyan was curious about why Lu Xiang insisted on having these two mountains, she didn't want to say more, and she didn't insist.

   "Okay, wait for my message."

   After speaking concisely, Chu Jinyan got up and prepared to leave.

  Just as he walked to the door, he was suddenly stopped by Lu Xiang: "Wait, Your Highness, won't you take your bank note?"

  Chu Jinyan laughed lowly: "I never go back on what I say."

  Lu Xiang: "..."

   It means that if you give her the bank note, you won't take it back?

  Then...then didn't she take advantage of it?

  Knowing that this is not good, but until Chu Jinyan left Lu Xiang, he didn't say another word.

  It wasn't until the cold wind outside the house blew in and slapped her face that she sat back at the table with a smile and squinted her eyes, grabbed the banknotes and counted them.

   "Actually, if it were someone else, there would be no way to repay this life-saving grace. The three conditions are still missing, but whoever makes the other party a prince, she dare not be greedy."

"Cooperating with the prince, she is also acting with courage. Who knows if Chu Jinyan, who seems gentle and talkative today, will suddenly turn his face and deny him in a few days? In fact, it is not a last resort, and she doesn't really want to see him. This prince's."

"But she is poor. Although her father is not an honest official, he is cowardly and does not dare to be greedy. The Lu family did not live a wealthy life. Over the years, mother has handed it over to her. I don't know how much her own dowry has been added to her. The money is also limited, if she doesn’t work hard to save some property, how will she avenge her life’s revenge.”

  After counting the thick stack of banknotes on the table, Lu Xiang jumped up from the stool in shock.

   "I'll go, fifty thousand taels!"

  The high-pitched screams were particularly abrupt in the silent night. Lu Xiang clutched her chest, feeling that Chu Jinyanhao was inhuman.

   It was 50,000 taels in one shot, as if throwing it away.

  At the back door of the Lu Mansion, a black figure was squatting on the ground and drawing circles boredly. He suddenly heard a strange noise in the wind, and quickly jumped up from the ground. When he saw the long, fair figure standing in front of him, his eyes lit up.

   "Master, are you out?"

  The man greeted him happily, his long eyebrows flying like swords, his captivating eyes like glazed glass rippling with romance and passion, he looked like a veteran in the field of romance.

   "Is Miss Lu very happy to receive the bank note?"

  Chu Jinyan glanced at Sheng Xian lightly, thinking of Lu Xiang's bright eyes when he saw the bank note, the corners of his thin lips couldn't help but rise: "It's not bad."

  Hearing the word "okay" from his master's mouth, Sheng Xian knew that his flattery was on point.

"What about Ah Man? Will the third lady accept you?" Thinking of that stupid girl, Sheng Xian had a strong disgust on his face: "It's not that the subordinates talk too much, the master really shouldn't listen to Yuan Feng." Yes, Ah Man, that girl can only eat but can't use her brain, so it's a bit unreliable to be next to Miss Lu."

  Chu Jinyan strode out of the alley with his hands behind his back, thinking that you are really talkative.

  But before getting on the horse, he said: "Lu Xiang is smart, and the maidservants around her are also smart. Picking a smart person to put her by her side will only make her feel wary and dare not use it too much. Ah Man is just right."

  Simple, stupid, one-sided person, Lu Xiang finally dared to use her with confidence.

  Chu Jinyan didn't expect Ah Man to be Lu Xiang's right-hand man, her only mission was to protect Lu Xiang's safety.

  The next day, before dawn, Mrs. Liu woke up, and before she could even put on her clothes, she rushed to Lu Mingzhu's room with an angry face.

  Because Lu Mingzhu thought that she was going to move to the North Courtyard, she lay on the table and cried all night, and her maid, Huamei, persuaded her all night.

   "Auntie." Seeing Aunt Liu, Huamei hurriedly saluted.

  Lu Mingzhu raised her head quickly when she heard the voice. Her beautiful eyes were red and swollen from crying, like bulging goldfish eyes. She glanced at her mouth, and immediately shouted aggrievedly: "Auntie..."

Snapped-

   When she spoke, Liu Shi raised his hand and slapped her hard.

   "You bastard, didn't I tell you not to associate with Xiao Muheng?"

Mrs. Liu roared, because she was too angry, her chest heaved violently, her pale face was a bit ferocious, and there was no trace of beauty at this moment. If Lu Youping saw Liu's current appearance, he might be scared U-turn and run.

  Lu Mingzhu was stunned by Liu's beating, and she covered half of her cheek and looked at Liu in a daze. Since she was a child, her father and mother had never moved a finger of her. But on this night, not only her father who doted on her threw her to the north courtyard and locked her up, but her mother who loved her even slapped her across the face.

  Lu Mingzhu felt that her sky was about to collapse, and the grievances in her heart were flooding like the Yellow River. Looking at Liu's black eyes, a wave of hatred involuntarily surged.

why.

  I was in such a miserable situation, her mother not only refused to help her, but also beat her?

  Luo Chun saw that Lu Mingzhu's expression was not right, and pulled Liu Shi to sit down: "Auntie, don't get angry, Fourth Miss has followed someone else's way, and now being punished is already a grievance."

After being reminded by Luochun, Liu Shi suddenly realized the impulse of her anger. Looking at the slap marks on Lu Mingzhu's face, her heart ached even more. She pulled Lu Mingzhu and cried sadly: "Mingzhu, Mingzhu, isn't it mother?" On purpose, when I woke up and found out that you were punished to go to the North Courtyard to think about your mistakes, my mother was really angry. You don't know Xiao Muheng, but my mother knows him well. He is despicable and cunning. I am really afraid that you will be cheated. We finally went back to the Lu Mansion, and you were punished by the master before you got a firm foothold, I'm really afraid that your father will leave us alone in a fit of anger."
