Before fleeing famine, marry a playboy!

"Mr. Lu?" the man in white called out.

Lu Mingqi and the others turned around. Lu Daji saw that Li Yuening and Xie Shi looked familiar.

This is the Xie family again, so I thought of Xie Sanlang and his wife.

He pulled Lu Mingqi and walked a few steps to Xie Shi, saying with a smile: "I didn't expect that the person I met earlier was the nobleman of the Xie family!"

Xie Shi nodded slightly and said, "I came here this time because of your son's matter.

I suppose he has told you what happened?"

Lu Daji was so disappointed that he said helplessly: "Alas, my son is ignorant and only mentioned it to me two days ago.

If I had known this earlier, I would have brought him here to thank you."

Xie Shi, "No need to thank me, my wife and I have eaten the meals cooked by your mother.

I kept thinking about her all the time, but when I went there again, I heard that she was no longer around. "

Speaking of his mother, Lu Daji felt a little uncomfortable and wiped his eyes with his sleeves, "My mother is a person with bad luck..."

Xie Shi saw that his sadness did not seem fake, and continued: "We also heard that she has a grandson who loves reading.

It just so happened that our family was in need of a book boy, so we wanted to let him try..."

"I agree with that."

Xie Shi looked at the silent Lu Mingqi, "What do you think?"

Lu Daji pulled Lu Mingqi and said, "Ming, say something quickly."

Lu Daji then added: "With the current conditions of my family, I am afraid it is impossible for Ming Ge'er to continue his studies.

Thank you for giving him this opportunity..."

"I do." Lu Mingqi looked up at Li Yuening and cupped his hands. "Sister... Madam, I was in a bad mood before.

Mingqi apologizes for neglecting Madam Xie and Mr. Xie."

Lu Daji was anxious, thinking that this child might have worshipped the wrong person.

However, Lu Mingqi knew that the person in charge here was Li Yuening. Previously, the man in red was headed by his sister, so it was right for him to apologize to her.

Xie Shi and Li Yuening looked at each other, "But now my conditions have changed."

Li Yuening took the contract from Bai Yi's hand and handed it over.

Lu Mingqi pursed his lips and took it with both hands. He looked at it for a long time, as if he had made a great decision, "Can I add one more?"

Li Yuening, "Tell me about it?"

"I also want a carriage." Fearing that his request was too high, Lu Mingqi added: "It doesn't have to be too good, just enough to seat a family of four and keep out the wind and rain."

"Is there anything else?"

Lu Mingqi shook his head.

Li Yuening, "I promise you, Baiyi, I will give them a carriage from Lu Tian."

Lu Daji, who was standing aside, had his eyes wide open like bells. He couldn't believe his ears. They had just said a few words, and they were going to be given a carriage!

How is this possible?

"Ming brother? This..." Lu Daji looked at Lu Mingqi excitedly, his voice trembling a little.

Lu Mingqi patted Lu Daji's arm, signaling him to stay calm.

Then he turned to Li Yuening and Xie Shi and said respectfully, "I want to say goodbye to my father."

A loud voice sounded like thunder, "What did you say?"

Lu Daji, who had not yet recovered from his excitement, looked at Lu Mingqi in disbelief, suspecting that he had heard it wrong.

Li Yuening also wanted to see how Lu Mingqi would handle it, so she nodded and said, "Come to me when you set off.

This 10 taels of silver is your monthly salary for half a year, and it is an advance payment to you."

Lu Mingqi had a complicated expression. Just as he was about to refuse, a hand reached out and took the money.

The woman's face was full of smiles, but she was still blaming Lu Daji, "Boss, the child is ignorant, and you are also ignorant?

Why are you pushing the silver away when you have it? I'll keep the 10 taels of silver for now."

The woman took the silver and left. Lu Daji hurriedly chased after her, and the two of them walked away pecking at each other.

Lu Mingqi wanted to say something, but Li Yuening waved her hand and said, "We won't interfere in your family affairs.

But I hope you can handle it yourself. In the future, you should focus on studying. You should decide for yourself what is more important."

Li Yuening took Xie Shi's hand and turned around, leaving a sentence, "I want to see you before I set off, otherwise the contract will be void."

Lu Mingqi bowed and watched them leave, thinking in his heart: I won't break my promise!

Lu Daji grabbed Lu's arm with one hand and tried to take the silver out of her arms with the other hand.

Lu curled up and protected him tightly, "Didn't you hear that Ming-ge has called himself a slave?

This is the money he earned from selling his body, so you, as the father, should take it. What? You want to give it back?"

Lu Daji increased the strength of his hand, determined to get the silver back. Lu felt pain and bit Lu Daji's mouth.

Ming Ge'er is willing to be a servant and he gets paid every month. It's better than following you as a carpenter.

With this money, our family of four can travel more easily.

It's fine if you don't feel sorry for me, but you don't feel sorry for the child, you biased person."

Lu Daji hissed and loosened his grip. Mrs. Lu wiped her mouth, stepped back a few steps, and held the twins in her arms.

Lu Daji stopped and said, "You ignorant woman,

Ming Ge'er will take the imperial examination in the future, how can he be a slave to others?"

“Who can predict what will happen in the future?

I only know that if I don't take the benefits in front of me, I will waste them.

I see that the lady and her husband are dressed finely, so they regard this little bit of silver as alms.

I picked up this for nothing..." Lu thought for a long time and didn't know what to say, so she just said:

The silver won’t be returned, so if you want to pay it back, you can use our mother’s life to pay it back…”

Lu Daji scratched his head, having no idea how to deal with this scoundrel.

He lost his wife in middle age and had only one child. His old mother was afraid that he would be lonely, so she gave an orphan girl who had fled to their village to be his concubine.

Everything was fine at the beginning. I treated Ming'er like my own child and loved him very much. When did it change?

Maybe it’s because after having twins and becoming a mother, my mindset has changed completely.

Ming'er's studies cost a lot of money, and he had complained about it since his old mother was still alive. At that time, his old mother could still set up a stall and make up for the daily expenses.

In recent days, his words have become more and more rude, and Mingger has also become silent. At first, I thought he just missed his grandmother, but later I found out that it was this woman who was causing trouble.

For the sake of the twins, Lu Daji had been tolerant, but today he had touched his reverse scale...

Lu Daji rolled up his sleeves, ready to teach Lu a lesson.

Lu Mingqi grabbed his arm and said, "Dad, I have something to tell you."

"It won't be too late after I teach this woman a lesson..."

"Dad, that's it. I've signed it." Lu Mingqi unfolded the contract. There was a bright red fingerprint on it, and Lu Mingqi's thumb was still bleeding.

"You? You are so confused, Ming Ge'er..." Lu Daji pointed at Lu Mingqi, "How can you be worthy of your grandmother, huh? You really pissed me off..."

After searching around for a suitable weapon but failing to find one, Lu Daji took off his shoes and hit Lu Mingqi hard several times. The twins were so scared that they hid in their mother's arms and dared not show their heads.

Lu Daji was tired from beating, and Lu Mingqi endured the pain in his buttocks and picked up a torn cloth shoe from the ground.

He squatted in front of Lu Daji and motioned him to put it on.

Lu Daji: ...

"Dad, I've made up my mind. Following Mr. Xie, even if I'm just a servant, it's better than what I have now.

How can you take care of your younger brothers and sisters when you walk to the northwest like this?

You see, I am still of some use, and one person is worth a carriage..." Lu Mingqi had tears in his eyes, but he was smiling.
