Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

The next day, Lu You slept until noon before getting up.

The care provided by the Wen family was very thoughtful. Although it was already past breakfast time, by the time Lu You finished washing up, steaming hot meals were placed on the table again.

"You prepared so much meat so early in the morning. Isn't the food in your Wen Mansion too good?"

On the dining table, there were not only chicken, duck, fish and meat, but also a bowl of ginseng soup.

Even Lu You couldn't help but admire such a luxurious breakfast.

The maid bowed and said, "The master heard about what happened last night while dining this morning, and guessed that you are an internal force warrior. He specifically ordered this."

Wen Xiuyuan is really thoughtful.

Hearing the maid's words, Lu You sighed in his heart.

As the maid waved her hand, three more people came in from outside the door holding vermilion trays.

"Miss Lu, these are the clothes that Madam asked me to send. They have never been worn before."

"After you eat, you can try them one by one. If there is anything that doesn't fit, it can be altered in half a day."

Lu You was drinking ginseng soup in big gulps. He just glanced at the silk clothes and pointed at Widow Zhou next to him.

"Sister Shuyi, please try these clothes. I can't wear them."

Although the clothes were all piled together, they couldn't be seen at all.

But the clothes given by the lady of the Wen family must have been those that real young ladies would wear, which were no better than shirts, jackets, shawls, bodices and skirts.

Although these things look very luxurious when worn, they are too bulky and will restrict your movements if you fight with others.

In today's chaotic world, Lu You's greatest reliance is his martial arts skills.

Lu You absolutely could not accept tying herself up just to look good.

"When Lu Yi and I were having breakfast, Sister Zhier had already brought us clothes. These were specially prepared for you." Widow Zhou stepped forward and explained.

"So thoughtful?" Lu You looked at the maid named Zhi'er: "Can I change this dress?"

"what?"

Zhier was stunned by the question.

She entered the Wen Mansion at the age of fourteen. Because she was born smart, she was favored by the lady and kept by her side.

Over the years, she helped receive many guests who came to the Wen Mansion, and the master and mistress also gave many gifts through her.

Every one of the guests accepted the gift with great trepidation and did not dare to say a word.

This is the first time that someone like Lu You first disliked it and then suggested replacing it.

"I can't make the decision on this. Miss Lu, if you want to change something, you can tell me and I will report to Madam for the decision."

"Don't worry, I won't exchange it for gold, silver, or silk or satin."

Lu You stood up and opened his arms to show his figure.

"What I want to change to are two sets of coarse cloth clothes, which are worn by martial artists and are convenient for fighting."

[Negative emotions from Liao Zhier +15, +15, +15...]

"You want coarse cloth? How about satin embroidery?" Zhier asked tentatively.

"Satin is dense and expensive. It's not only hot to wear, but it's also heartbreaking if it gets damaged. If you can't find coarse cloth in your house, you can try some other fabrics."

Lu You said casually.

Upon hearing this, Zhier bowed and then turned around and left with her men.

Widow Zhou moved the plate and helped Lu You serve the soup.

"Luyo, why don't I return those clothes too."

"Don't your clothes look good?" Lu You asked curiously.

"It looks nice, but it's too precious." Widow Zhou sighed and said, "After I received it, I carefully placed it on the bed and didn't want to wear it at all."

"Since you have received it, keep it. There will always be a chance to wear it."

…………

In the pavilion of Wen Mansion Garden, two graceful ladies were sitting and chatting.

Zhier came with three maids and waited outside the pavilion.

After the two women finished chatting, one of the women in purple robe turned around and looked at Zhier.

"Why did you bring it back? Do you despise it?"

"To answer madam, Miss Lu said she wanted to change into a warrior's outfit, and she doesn't want silk, but cloth." Zhi'er answered respectfully.

"Cloth?" Mrs. Wen was slightly stunned. "Does she know the value of these clothes? If they were converted into cloth, dozens of them would be enough."

"Ms. Lu said that silk is expensive and can't be used to stretch the body when worn. I won't feel bad if it's changed to cloth."

Hearing this, Mrs. Wen chuckled.

"This girl is quite interesting. Let the embroiderer in the mansion come over and make it for her."

"Make her three sets of boots, robes, wrist guards, and belts, and add soft armor inside. Go ahead."

Zhier took the order and left, while the woman next to her looked at Madam Wen curiously.

"Sister, is there anyone coming to your house?"

Madam Wen nodded slightly when she heard this: "Didn't I just tell you that the great scholar Guan Shanyue has moved into our house, and this little girl who is taking back her clothes came with him."

"Is he Mr. Guan's junior?" the woman continued to ask.

Mrs. Wen shook her head slightly.

"What kind of noble descendant is that?"

Madam Wen shook her head again: "She is just a commoner girl."

"Why do you care so much, sister?" the woman asked in confusion, "How dare a mere commoner like you be so picky after receiving a reward from the Wen Mansion?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wen turned around and looked at the flowers outside the pavilion.

"It's true that she is a commoner, but she saved Mr. Guan's life. Mr. Guan even gave her the imperial dragon jade pendant. Do you think she dares to be picky?"

Hearing this, the woman was shocked: "The Dragon Jade Pendant is in her hand?"

"Absolutely."

"It seems that this woman is not ordinary."

Madam Wen picked up the teacup and took a sip: "I didn't know it before, but this time Mr. Guan is going back to Wudu, and he will definitely be promoted to a high position in the government again."

"Everyone in the world knows what kind of person Mr. Guan is. Even if he took the initiative to stay at our Wen Mansion this time, it was just a helpless move. It is impossible to make friends with him by this means."

"This girl saved Mr. Guan's life, so she is a breakthrough."

Having said this, Mrs. Wen gently cast her gaze on the woman's face.

"Sister, as women, we cannot participate in political affairs, but we have to help the master maintain this relationship."

"Bo'er has been practicing martial arts since he was young, and he has always been reckless. You have to warn him not to provoke that girl, so as to avoid any trouble."

"I'll follow your instructions, sister." The woman nodded quickly.

Madam Wen gently waved her hand when she heard this: "We have been sisters for so many years, why do we still need such empty formalities?"

Upon hearing this, the woman quickly stood up and bowed.

"Sister, I was originally your maid."

"It's because you love me that you let me be your concubine."

"Although everyone in the Wen family calls me Second Madam, in my heart, you will always be my Miss."

"I will do whatever you tell me to do!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wen stood up and held the woman's hand.

"We grew up together, and have called each other sisters since childhood. Now we serve the master together, so it's too late to talk about these things."

"Thank you, sister." The second lady said gratefully, "Sister, I will go back first."

Madam Wen sat in the pavilion sipping tea. She waited until the Second Madam's people had completely left the garden before she turned to look at the maid beside her.

"Is the matter settled?"

"It's done." The maid replied respectfully, "The blood ginseng that Master Bo wanted to take as a tonic has been sent to Miss Lu's room. She should have finished eating it by now."

Mrs. Wen's mouth curled up when she heard this.

"Miss Lu and the others are guests, not thieves, so they don't need to be watched."

"Go and withdraw the guards around the side yard, and don't let anyone disturb Miss Lu's rest."
