Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress

Chapter 222: Vow not to be a concubine (4)

Caiwei curled her lips and said disdainfully: "What's so great about it, isn't it the palace? Even if I'm invited to go there in a big sedan chair, I wouldn't be surprised, hum!"

There was another sound on the roof.

Mu Zhongqing raised his head, looked at the roof, and said, "This house is old, right? The tiles are all loose. I'll go back and find two bricklayers to re-lay the tiles..."

After breakfast, Caiwei and her mother planned to go to the nursing home together to see the New Year. They would buy some New Year goods for the old, young, sick and disabled in the nursing home so that they could feel the joy of the New Year.

Before leaving, Mrs. Du ordered Sister-in-law Liu and Aunt Zhang to pick a large bag full of various vegetables in the wing, and also brought a roast goose, a big fish, half a basket of crabs and half a roast lamb to celebrate the New Year for them. .

When passing by a pastry shop, Caiwei asked Uncle Zhang to stop the car and went inside in person. She bought three kilograms of soft grass seed cake, three kilograms of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, three kilograms of jujube cake and three kilograms of cooking cakes, and wrapped them in oil paper. , carried it back to the car.

"See what else is missing? Let's buy it too."

Mrs. Du was very supportive of her daughter's charity, and she agreed with spending money on the nursing home to support the elderly, the young, the sick and the disabled.

Caiwei thought for a while and said, "Let's buy each of them another piece of clothing. It's the New Year. Wear new clothes to add to the joy."

So, Uncle Zhang drove the carriage again and went straight to the clothing store where they often went.

When she arrived at the ready-made clothing store, Caiwei thought about what Fei'er had said to her, so she asked the clerk on the counter if her custom-made several pieces of ready-made clothing were ready?

The waiter hurriedly went into the inner room and took out some sets of clothes. Caiwei and her mother took a brief look at them and felt satisfied, so they put them away and went to select clothes for those in the nursing home.

Caiwei was familiar with the size of those people, so she quickly picked them out and was about to go to the counter to settle the accounts. Suddenly she heard a customer who came in later said: "It's amazing. I just heard that Law My home was burgled last night."

Another customer asked in surprise: "Who is so brave that he dares to steal from Lu's house?"

The person from before said: "Not only was it stolen, but the whole house was moved. I heard that the entire mansion was moved empty. I have to say that it was gold and silver treasures. Even the tables, chairs and benches were not spared. The flower-like Mrs. Lu was made to look like a ghost. Her whole face was painted darker than the ink, but it could not be washed away no matter how hard she washed it. Her hair was shaved off, which scared me to death. Now Mrs. Lu, He is making a fuss about dying!"

After hearing such breaking news, the shopkeepers and waiters in the shop all came over and couldn't help but gossip.

"The Lu family is so big. Moving a chime in the air would make a lot of noise. Didn't anyone notice?"

The customer who broke the news said: "But it's strange. There was no movement at all. Even the servants who were keeping watch at night didn't see a ghost. The house was evacuated so quietly. It's really scary to say that The evil door. Oh, by the way, the rice store of the Lu family was also emptied. The two guys who were on duty last night went to visit the kiln and were not on duty in the rice store. When they came back, the rice store was already empty. Fortunately For some reason, a thief passed out in the rice row, and now he has been caught. He is just waiting to be interrogated when he wakes up."

"Now, the Lu family must be in a state of chaos, right?"

"It's not that bad. All the money accumulated by the Lu family for many years was lost. Even the body that Mrs. Lu had saved for many years was gone. Even the bodies that the concubines had saved were stolen. It can be seen that this gang The thief searched every room and left nothing behind."

Hearing someone talk about searching the concubine's room, someone immediately started to have evil thoughts: "So, there are outsiders in the house of the women of the Lu family, but I don't know if they have lost their virginity? If that is the case, wouldn't Mr. Lu be even more serious?" How pitiful, haha..."

Caiwei twitched the corner of her mouth, imagining that this is how the rumors in the world probably come about. People rely on their own wishful thinking, add details, and turn the original truth into what they imagine. Now, I'm afraid there is no such thing. By night, various versions of Lu family women being insulted by thieves will be circulating around the town...
