The space boss's daily life of raising cubs, loving husbands and farming

Chapter 164 Great excitement

Shitou had a mission today, and he had to go to the city to pick up orders from Dajun and the He family. After setting off firecrackers, he drove away in the ox cart.

The women washed vegetables and cooked, and the men had nothing to do after setting up the tables, chairs and benches, so they went in groups of three or four to visit the new house.

Lu Chengjing's task today is to accompany the guests.

Most of his clothes were moon white in light colors. Thinking of the joy of moving into a new house today, he searched through all his clothes and finally found a cornel purple robe at the bottom of the box.

Purple is a noble color, and when worn by Lu Chengjing, it makes him look even more graceful.

In Shang Wan’s words, at first glance, it seemed as if he was not on the same level as the others.

To suit the occasion, she also wore a scarlet long dress today.

She has fair skin, beautiful face and a graceful figure. When she walks, the silver embroidery on her skirt blooms like flowers, which is so beautiful.

The long hair that was usually tied up casually was now coiled up on her head by Xiaohuan's skillful hands, with two red jade hairpins in the pattern of crabapple inserted diagonally, which complemented the dress perfectly.

Lu Chengjing bought the jade hairpin when he went to the city a few days ago. He fell in love with it at first sight in the shop.

When he saw the lily hairpin, he inexplicably recalled the day when Shang Wan was picking ginger on the cliff, and felt that Shang Wan would look good wearing it.

Facts have proved that Shang Wan's face is even prettier than a cabbage leaf.

The jade hairpin is matched with a pair of earrings, and the small jade makes the earlobes look even more lustrous.

Zhang Er took just one look and then hurriedly looked away, not daring to look any further.

Shang Wan looked around the crowd but didn't see anyone from the Lin family.

"They don't have the face to come." Aunt Zhou curled her lips, grabbed a handful of vegetable leaves, shook off the water, and put them in a bamboo basket beside her.

Madam Rong winked at Shang Wan and said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "It's a waste to give such good things to those heartless people."

Shang Wan curved her lips and smiled. She didn't care whether the Lin family came or not, but if they wanted to cause trouble today... a dark light flashed in her eyes. If they wanted to die, she would definitely not stop them.

Anyway, the seats are ready, so it would be nice to watch a show.

As the sun grew brighter, there were so many people in the village that there was no room for everyone to sit in the yard, so the tables and chairs were placed outside the yard.

The trees that were moved from the mountain two days before Shang Wan became natural parasols. The dense treetops cast cool shadows, blocking out the heat of the sun.

Everyone sat under the tree and chatted.

Shitou hadn't come back yet, but Qiao Yu'an arrived first with A Le and a lot of gifts, which made everyone stretch their necks to look curiously.

"This house is well built, Chengjing, take me around."

Lu Chengjing naturally agreed, and the two of them looked around the backyard and went straight to the study.

The study is simply decorated, not as good as the one Lu Chengjing has in the Lu Mansion, but it is also elegant and clean. As soon as you enter the door, you can smell a faint floral fragrance.

Qiao Yu'an looked in the direction where the fragrance came from, and saw a white porcelain vase on the mahogany table by the window. There were five white lilies in the vase, with a few drops of dew on the petals.

He raised his eyebrows in surprise, "I remember you never liked to put these in the study."

Lu Chengjing was dazzled, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly, "I like it now."

The flowers were planted by Shang Wan in the space and were just put in this morning.

Looking at Lu Chengjing's expression, Qiao Yu'an knew who arranged the flowers without thinking. She shook her head secretly, took out a letter from her sleeve and handed it over, "There is news, take a look."

Lu Chengjing took it, but didn't open it in a hurry. He asked A Le to close the window first.

With the windows closed, the noise of the children in the garden became quieter.

Lu Chengjing opened the letter, read it quickly, and a knot formed between his brows.

Qiao Yu'an had read the contents of the letter before, and seeing Lu Chengjing like this, she was not in a hurry to speak.

He sat on the couch next to the window, pulled out the chessboard from under the low table, and placed the chess pieces on it one by one.

The chess piece fell on the board with a crisp "click" sound.

He was not shy at all and ordered, "Ah Le, go make two cups of tea."

Ah Le pushed the door open and went out.

Lu Chengjing collected his thoughts, put the letter in his sleeve, stood up from the wheelchair, walked over to sit down opposite Qiao Yu'an.

Qiao Yu'an saw him coming out of the corner of his eye and his eyes widened as if he had seen a ghost.

"Are you healed?!"

"Yeah." Lu Chengjing picked up the white piece with two fingers and placed it on the chessboard.

Qiao Yu'an glanced at the chessboard, then placed a black piece, raised his head and looked at the opponent suspiciously, "Why are you still sitting in a wheelchair when you are fine?"

Lu Chengjing dropped another white piece, "I don't want my wife's ancestral secret recipe to be leaked."

Qiao Yu'an paused in picking up the chess piece. Was he pointing at him?

He asked, "Is this what your sister-in-law meant?"

Lu Chengjing pretended to be confused even though he knew the truth. After making his move, he looked up at him and asked, "What does this have to do with my wife?"

Qiao Yu'an pondered for a moment, then continued to make his move, saying meaningfully, "We can negotiate the conditions."

Lu Chengjing didn't respond and concentrated on playing chess.

His long eyelashes cast a shadow on his eyelids, making it impossible to see the emotions in his eyes.

Qiao Yu'an's mind turned, and he knocked the chess piece on the edge of the chessboard, "When my eldest cousin's leg injury is healed, I will ask him to come here in person."

Of course you have to be sincere when doing business. Judging from my friend's attitude, I'm afraid this matter cannot be concluded relying solely on myself as a middleman.

Lu Chengjing was waiting for him to say this, but he didn't show it on his face. He continued to talk about other things while making his move.

"Oh no!" Ah Le suddenly pushed the door open, "There are a lot of officials outside!"

Upon hearing this, the two people in the room looked at each other, stood up, and walked out one after the other.

Before leaving, Qiao Yu'an paused, looked back at the wheelchair, and said hesitantly, "Aren't you going out in a wheelchair?"

Qiao Yu'an is not stupid. Lu Chengjing deliberately sat in a wheelchair just now, probably because he didn't want others to know that his leg injury had healed.

"No need." Lu Chengjing walked briskly, his tall figure like a tall green bamboo.

Qiao Yu'an rolled his eyes, smiled and put his arm around A-Le's shoulders, "Let's go and watch the fun."

There will definitely be something exciting to watch today.

When the three of them arrived in front, several groups of people were confronting each other.

On one side was an official led by Shan Dajun, who had changed into his official uniform and looked embarrassed. He had come to the banquet to enjoy the feast, but he did not expect to be asked to catch a thief, and the thief was the host.

On one side was Manager Liu, and behind him were two burly Lu Mansion guards. It seemed that the last time Xiao Huan beat him like a son, it left a big shadow on him.

On one side were the Lin family. Lin Jianshui, who had not been seen for a long time and almost became a vegetable, was also there, standing honestly behind Village Chief Lin with his head lowered.

On one side are the villagers who are confused about the situation.

The last party is naturally Shang Wan.

"What's going on?" Lu Chengjing walked up to Shang Wan and stood beside him, asking in a low voice.

Shang Wan glanced at Manager Liu and sneered, "Someone reported us for stealing things from the Lu Mansion, and brought the police to arrest the thieves."

Manager Liu didn't bother to refute her. His eyes were fixed on Lu Chengjing, or to be more precise, on Lu Chengjing's legs.

"Third Young Master, can you stand up now?"

Didn't they say he would never get well and would just be a cripple? How did he get well all of a sudden?
