I was a housekeeper in ancient times

Chapter 243 Return to the Capital

Lu Yuheng said aggrievedly, "That person doesn't care about himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. As long as my elder brother is around, I, the Earl of Pingrong, will live worse than the common people outside! Mother, you should think of a solution."

Madam Lu said, "This time, you think the same as I do."

"mother?"

"Don't worry about this. I have my own plan. Mother won't let you do anything."

"Didn't they say that they have already left the capital? How can we..."

"Don't worry, I'll find a way."

After Lu Yuheng left, Nanny Yang asked: "Madam, how could the master be so smart? How could he find him and..."

Madam Lu said, "Bring me some writing brush and ink, and tell me that I am seriously ill and unconscious."

Whether it worked or not, she had to give it a try.

This time, no matter what she said, she had to deal with Lu Yuxuan, otherwise she would die with regrets.

The house that was rented outside was near Changning Street and close to the Bai residence. It was Manager Li who took the trouble to find it. Although the time was tight, he found a good place.

This house belongs to a wealthy family and is called Liyuan. It is spacious, with courtyards in front and back, and a small garden. Even compared with the Bo Mansion, it is not inferior.

The room is more than enough for Yu Muyan alone.

Lin Weiqiao got a large room all to herself, and she lived in it very comfortably. She thought to herself, if she had let Yu Muyan move out earlier, there wouldn't be so many things to do, and she wouldn't have to be on guard against the second room all the time. It would be really comfortable.

This is what it means to live.

The only flaw is why Lu Yuxuan hasn’t shown up yet?

Shan Jun told her that someone was secretly protecting Xiao Qianluo in Qianchun Lane, and these people should be Lu Yuxuan's men. Logically speaking, Lu Yuxuan should have known the news as soon as Xiao Qianluo was captured, so why didn't he know anything for so long?

Could it be that Lu Yuxuan hesitated and chose freedom over Xiao Qianluo?

That was not possible. With the little she knew about Lu Yuxuan, and the fact that Lu Yuxuan was able to fake his own death for Xiao Qianluo, he would not just watch Xiao Qianluo fall into trouble without saving her.

She thought that Lu Yuxuan should be looking for an opportunity to rescue her, so she had to wait patiently.

She didn't need to do anything, let alone set up a dragnet. After all, the whole city was hunting for Lu Yuxuan. As long as Lu Yuxuan dared to show up, he would not be able to escape.

This time, everything has to be settled.

Besides, Lu Yuxuan finally got back to the capital after much difficulty. However, for fear of being recognized by the guards, he dared not come back during the day, and could only come back when it was almost dark. He deliberately disguised himself as a beggar with dishevelled hair and a hunched back, and used a crutch, and entered the capital in an extremely embarrassed manner.

This was a great shame and humiliation for him, and his hatred for Yu Muyan increased even more.

Now he couldn't care less about so many things. He thought that Xiao Qianluo must be imprisoned in the Bo's Mansion by Yu Muyan. In addition, he was desperate, so he decided to take the risk and go back to the Bo's Mansion!

The most dangerous place is the safest place. No one would have thought that he would hide in Bo's mansion!

Many days later, standing outside the door of the Bo's house, he was filled with emotion.

When he left the Bo's Mansion, he was full of ambitions, and expected that when he returned, he would be honored and successful. He never expected...

He knocked on the door very cautiously and did not dare to reveal his identity. He only said that he was a distant relative of Nanny Yang and had to find Nanny Yang for important matters.

It is no exaggeration to say that when Madam Yang saw him, she immediately thought that he was a poor relative from her hometown who had come to visit her. She was just thinking about sending him away, but she heard that familiar yet strange voice: "Madam, don't say anything, it's me..."

This voice made Yang Ma tremble all over and opened her mouth wide, "You, you are..."

He slowly raised his head, his body was dirty, but the fierce look in his eyes remained unchanged. "It's me, I'm back."

Nanny Yang's expression was more outrageous than if she had seen a ghost. After realizing that it was really him, she looked around frantically, and seeing that there was no one around, she pulled him into the room with a worried look on her face.

"Master, why did you come back so soon?" Nanny Yang asked tremblingly, not daring to look him in the face. He came too suddenly, and she was panicked and at a loss. She didn't know how to respond, and she was even more afraid of being discovered. What a disaster that would be.

"Is mother asleep? I have something to ask her." Lu Yuxuan asked. He was worried about Xiao Qianluo, but all his confidants in the first house had been dismissed. Now the remaining servants in the first house were under the control of Yu Muyan. It was difficult for him to save them, so he could only ask Madam Lu for help.

"I, I will report to the old lady right away. You will wait here for a while."

"Ah."

After Nanny Yang came out, she immediately closed the door and quickly ordered people to seal off Huang Jutang, and no outsiders were allowed to step in except Lu Yuheng.

At this time, Old Madam Lu had already laid down, letting two little maids massage her legs and back. She felt so comfortable and was about to fall asleep in a daze when she heard Nanny Yang coming.

Nanny Yang hurriedly drove the two little girls out, closed the doors and windows, and said in a trembling voice: "Madam, Madam..."

Madam Lu turned around in confusion and saw Nanny Yang’s face was pale and serious. “What’s wrong?”

"Master, the master is back!"

"Who?"

Nanny Yang leaned close to Madam Lu's ear and wanted to say loudly but didn't dare to: "The master is back, in that room!"

Madam Lu sat up straight at once and asked again in disbelief, "Xuan, is Brother Xuan back?"

Nanny Yang nodded.

In an instant, the room fell into deathly silence.

It took a long time for Mrs. Lu to recover. She asked in shock, "Wasn't the letter sent last night? How come it was sent so quickly..."

While helping her dress and put on her shoes, Nanny Yang said, "It seems that the master came back suddenly. I guess he hasn't received the letter yet. As soon as he came back, he said he had something to ask you, old lady. Don't worry, old lady, when the master came, he said I was a distant relative. The servant guarding the back door didn't recognize me. I was the only one who recognized me."

"Then why did he come back?"

"That's not clear. Madam, where do you want to arrange to meet the master?"

Madam Lu had been through this before, and even in such a panic, she was still rational. She thought for a moment and said, "It's in the pavilion behind my yard. Go and prepare..."

She paused, as if she had made up her mind, "No matter why he came back, we can't keep him. Go and prepare a cup of tea!"

Yang Ma was shocked and knew what she meant. "What if Master doesn't drink it, or if he finds out, the consequences will be disastrous. As for the driver, Master..."

"He probably doesn't know yet. If he knew, he wouldn't risk coming back to find me. Go quickly, and be quick!"
