The cannon fodder fake prince at the beginning, I won by hugging thighs

"Sir, don't listen to this horse dealer. He is just trying to scare you so that you will help him train horses in the future!"

Ma Shang shook his head repeatedly, indicating that he had no selfish motives at all.

Lu Jiao smiled and comforted Liu the Dwarf: "Relax, I understand the principle of being guilty of possessing a treasure."

What she didn't say was that Ma Shang's suggestion gave her inspiration.

This time she went to the northwest, she was not using her real name, so she could indeed tame a few good horses and bring them back to give to Yan Yuanhao and Lu Ze.

It’s a pity that the space 248 cannot hold living things, otherwise it could be transported to Beijing without anyone noticing.

Lu Jiao put this thought behind her for the time being, took Taxue's reins, and said goodbye to the horse merchant and Wu Mao with a smile.

"When I return to Beijing, I will definitely come to visit you two!"

"Then I, Ma, will be waiting here for Brother Jiao to return!"

Lu Jiao bowed and said, "See you later!"

Taxue had not recovered from his serious illness yet, so Lu Jiao was reluctant to let it suffer now. He tied the reins to the wooden frame behind the carriage and got into the carriage.

Liu the Shorty sat in the front and drove the car. Considering the injury caused by Taxue, he did not drive very fast.

He was trotting behind the carriage in the snow, snorting with pleasure.

Perhaps it was because of its fur or its gray color, but although Taxue looked tall and mighty, few people noticed it.

The process of returning to the clinic went smoothly.

Shorty Liu rushed excitedly into the back hall of Huichun Hall, grabbed Jiang's hand and refused to let go.

"Did Doctor Du just finish giving Mom the injection? What did he say?"

Jiang felt that her man had changed a lot. He no longer looked as sad as before and was in much better spirits.

She pointed to the medicine bag beside her and said, "Doctor Du said that you can take these two doses of medicine home for two days, and come back for acupuncture on the third day."

"So, we can go back now?"

Jiang patiently repeated, "Yes!"

Shorty Liu turned around and wanted to walk out: "Then I'm going to go and thank Doctor Du!"

"Hey! Come back!"

Jiang didn't have time to grab Liu the Shorty, but Liu Shuanzhu grabbed him in time.

"Dad! Please listen to what mom has to say! Doctor Du said that he has a lot of patients this morning, so we can just go back by ourselves and don't need to say goodbye to him."

Liu the Shorty feels bad that he can't find Doctor Du, but he can find Dusang!

The result was that he walked out of Huichun Hall holding a small pile of silver and copper coins.

Lu Jiao raised an eyebrow: "What's going on?"

Shorty Liu extended his hand to Lu Jiao and said, "Sir, this is the money you paid for the medicine.

This is unfinished.”

Lu Jiao glanced at it, did not take it, turned around and got on the mule cart.

"Come up, everyone!"

Shorty Liu wanted to refuse, but when he thought of what Lu Jiao had said before, he pursed his lips and helped his mother onto the mule cart.

Jiang looked at the mule cart for a while, then followed Liu Laonian and got on the cart.

Liu Shuanzhu sat outside with Liu the Shorty.

The group quickly returned to Yonghefang.

It was almost the end of the Si hour (11 o'clock) and there were not many people on the street. After turning into Baishi Lane, I didn't meet anyone.

When Jiang got out of the car, he looked around the house carefully. It was much better than the place he lived before.

"Are we going to live here from now on?"

"Not bad!"

Liu Shuanzhu took the key from Liu Aizi and went forward to open the door. Liu Aizi supported his mother and introduced the surrounding environment to her and Jiang.

Old Lady Liu looked at the gate of the house. Although it was not a wealthy family, it was also a place she had never lived in in her life.

With tears in her eyes, she looked at Lu Jiao who was coming down from behind her: "Young Master..."

Lu Jiao glanced diagonally across the door and saw a pair of eyes behind it that were not too obvious.

"This is not the place to talk, let's go in first!"

"Well, you are right!"

Jiang helped Old Lady Liu into the house first, while Liu Shuanzhu helped Shorty Liu remove the door threshold and drive the mule cart into the house.

As for walking on the snow, Liu the Dwarf only dared to untie the reins, he didn't dare to lead it into the straw hut.

Lu Jiao had something to say to them, so he followed them into the back room near the gate.

Seeing that the room had been cleaned up, she nodded with satisfaction.

"I won't say any more nonsense. You come to the Jiao family to be servants, so you must sell your body indentures."

Liu Aizi and the others didn't react much after hearing this, except Liu Shuanzhu, who silently clenched his fists and lowered his head.

Then Lu Jiao continued, "But I won't take it to the government for review."

While the others were still in shock, Liu Shuanzhu suddenly raised his head and looked at Lu Jiao with his eyes wide open, and his fists had unclenched at some point.

"Why... why?"

No one except Lu Jiao heard his mumbling.

Lu Jiao's gaze passed through the crowd and landed on Liu Shuanzhu: "The regulations of this dynasty stipulate that even if a slave is released from slavery, he must wait three generations before he can take the imperial examination.

I am optimistic about the future of Tiezhu, so I will not do such a thing as killing the goose that lays the golden eggs."

Jiang's hand loosened and the medicine bag almost fell to the ground.

At this time, Old Lady Liu started to cry: "It's all my fault!"

"Mom, don't say that!"

Just when Liu the Dwarf and the other two were about to cry, Lu Jiao said, "Old Liu also knows that I will be going to the northwest soon, and my parents will not come to Beijing for at least two months.

During this time, you should take good care of this house, and then they will bring Lu Yin to Beijing!"

As expected, Liu the Dwarf was distracted by Lu Jiao: "Then could it be that the master and his men don't know the location of the house?"

"Don't worry about it. I'll leave a message for them."

She then said to Liu Shuanzhu, "During this period of time, you and your father should find out the situation of several nearby markets. If there are any bookstores or private schools, you can also go and find out."

"Sir, do you mean to support my family to study?"

"That's right. But as a family servant going to school, it's inevitable that people will look down on you. Some teachers may be pedantic and think that teaching a lowly person is beneath their dignity. The pain is not something that ordinary people can endure.

Liu Shuanzhu, can you do it?

Liu Shuanzhu clenched his fist again: "I can do it!"

"Good! You have ambition! Remember what you said today!"

Lu Jiao looked around, his eyes sweeping over the faces of Liu Aizi and the others, including Liu Xiaohua.

"You work for me, so I will not treat you unfairly. When the time is right, I will burn your indentures and give you freedom."

At this moment, everyone present understood what it meant.

As if he had made up his mind, Liu the Dwarf said, "Sir! We are willing to follow you for the rest of our lives! Let's use the indenture to restrain us!"

Lu Jiao was very satisfied with Liu the Shorty's tact, but he also understood that when the foal grew into a horse king, the reins would be useless.

She is also confident that her trusted subordinates will not betray her easily.

Lu Jiao pretended to go to the backyard, but actually took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone from the space, wrote the indenture contract and asked them to sign and stamp their fingerprints.
