Lu You said in surprise, "It's not impossible to spend money to donate one, but... the official position donated is not only low, but also expensive. I heard that someone spent 100,000 pounds of money after donating an eighth rank. It's not worth it, it's not worth it."

Lu You shook his head.

The Lu family lacks money, not lacks collection of books and knowledge.

In the eyes of the Lu family, you can get fame and salary without spending any money, so why do you have to spend money to buy fame and salary?

They feel it's not worth it and they lose.

Luo Cheng laughed, "Of course not, it's really not worth it."

Lu You said again, "Then are you doing military achievements? But in that case, you have to do military achievements. And military achievements are hard to make."

“None are not.”

"What is that?"

Luo Cheng smiled slightly, "You will know then."

Lu You smiled, "It's fine if you have plans, I don't have to worry about you..."

He shook his head funny.

"Worried that I am not enterprising?" Luo Cheng smiled.

Lu You said embarrassedly, "It's also about your future. Think about your cousin and sister-in-law. You are busy, but you have no career. I'm worried that she will resent you."

"She doesn't know, the third cousin is overly worried." Luo Cheng smiled.

Lu You smiled and said, "Okay, I hope I'm too concerned."

...

Leave Cao's family.

Luo Cheng did not return to Li's house immediately.

He rode his horse to the north shore of West Lake, a large mansion under renovation.

The main gate of the house has been repaired, and the pavilions and houses in the house have been almost repaired. The details are currently under rest.

For example, the window lattices and furniture in the house need to be repainted, some of which are really dilapidated and need to be made new.

The colors of new furniture must be matched with the house, and these cannot be careless.

Luo Cheng doesn't come here every day.

Starting half a month ago, he found Hu Zi to be a supervisor.

Luo Cheng tied the horse to the tree on the side of the door of the house and asked the person guarding the door, "Is Sun Hu in the house?"

The gatekeeper immediately walked and said, "Langjun, Brother Sun is in the house."

Luo Cheng entered the house.

From time to time, craftsmen say hello, "Hello, Mr. Lang."

Everyone knows that he is the new owner of the house. He repaired the house and gave it to his wife, but he doesn't know his name.

However, what do they care about the name and surname of the master?

Just give the wages to the right place.

The supervisor is an official, and he is not afraid of not having any wages.

The house occupied a considerable area. Luo Cheng walked for a while before he reached the main courtyard of the back house.

Hu Zi was checking the paint on the door. He heard the footsteps behind him and hurriedly looked back.

He smiled and said, "It's Brother Luo Cheng? Brother Luo Cheng, don't worry, I will be a good supervisor. You don't have to come every day, just be busy with your own affairs."

Luo Cheng smiled and said, "Of course I don't worry about you. I'm here to see the changes in the house. I've changed a lot of things along the way just now."

Hu Zi smiled and said, "This house is quite large, and Miss Li will definitely like it when she sees it."

Luo Cheng had a calm face, "I promised to keep it confidential first."

Hu Zi immediately lowered his smile and nodded seriously, "I understand, Brother Luo Cheng."

.

Luo Cheng left with satisfaction after walking around the house.

According to the progress, by mid-March, the house can be completely repaired and moved in at the end of March.

In fact, if you want to live there, you can move in now.

Several courtyards have been repaired.

But Luo Cheng didn't want Li Jiaoniang to see only an empty, desolate house.

He had to wait for the flowers and plants in the house to grow prosperous.

At this time, the transplanted vegetation will not be able to see green leaves and colorful flowers until the end of next month.

.

Luo Cheng rode his horse to the east, and not long after, a few women walked towards the west.

There are young ladies and unmarried girls.

Seven or eight masters, plus the maids who followed him, were a lively group of people.

They talked and laughed, walked to the house and stopped.

The head of the Mu family girl Mu Zilan and Mu Xuan's cousin.

"This house is the largest house in Lin'an City except Qin Mansion." Mu Zilan said, pointing to the gate of the house.

Above the gate, a gold-burned plaque was hung with three big words written on it: "Liuyuezhuang".

"Whose Zhuangzi is this? He is so generous?" said a woman.

Wang Yun said, "It is said that this farm was bought by a rich man. After he repaired it, he would give it to his newly married wife as a gift."

Mu Zilan glanced at Li Jiaoniang in the crowd and smiled slightly, "Some people have just gotten married, but they don't even have a house, and they live in their own house."

"That's a marriage into the family, right?" Wang Yun said.

"Not that, I just got married, but the man's family has no house, so she brought her husband into her house." Mu Zilan looked at Li Jiaoni and said with a smile.

Cao Wen saw her staring at Li Jiaoniang and the meaning of this was a little hinting at Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng.

Cao Wen's face suddenly looked bad.

No matter what, Li Jiaoniang and Luo Cheng are distant relatives of their aunt Lu's family.

Moreover, when Qin Lin'er targeted her and her sister Cao Zhen, Li Jiaoniang helped her.

The Cao family has had some trouble recently, and Li Jiaoniang asked Prince Pu'an and Xuan Delang to help the Cao family solve the problem.

Li Jiaoniang has kindness to the Cao family.

Cao Wen then protected Li Jiaoniang and stared at Mu Zilan and said bluntly, "Mu Zilan, everyone will come out to play together. Is it necessary to say something to criticize the monks and scold the gods? My cousin's wife didn't say you, why did you say her?"

She followed the children of Lu, called Li Jiaoniang's cousin's wife, and called Luo Cheng as her cousin.

Cao Zhen also said, "That's right, why should you be so sarcastic?"

Mu Zilan's grandfather is a third-rank grandson in Guanwen Hall, so he is not afraid of two sisters from a fifth-rank small official family.

She smiled softly, "Did I say something wrong? Did I wrong her? If you think I say something wrong and I wronged Miss Li, do you go to the prefect's office to sue me? Or, sue me in front of Shangguan's family?"

Another young girl who was close to Mu Zilan also echoed and said, "Zilan is right. Doesn't Miss Li's husband just live in Miss Li's house?"

“…”

"Oh, by the way, her husband is a farmer in the countryside, right? How can he afford a house? The house in Lin'an City is not something that ordinary people can afford."

The young woman pointed to the gate of "Liuyue Village" again and said with a smile, "It's even more unlimited to give away a mansion like this."

Mu Zilan nodded, "The man who can't afford to give his wife a big house is equivalent to a waste."

Cao Min was so angry that her face turned pale, she pointed at Mu Zilan and said to the young woman, "You...you are too much!"

Cao Zhen said coldly, "You guys play for yourself, we won't be with you!"

At this time, a young woman said, "Okay, okay, stop arguing. Today I invited everyone out to play. Why, I even invited the wrong one?"

Everyone looked at her and stopped talking.

This is the elder sister of Zhao Jiu, the prince of Enping County and the Lord of Yong'an County.

The Lord of Yong'an County will be getting married next month. She is worried that she will deal with her husband's family after marriage and will not have the opportunity to go out as she wishes.

So, taking advantage of the sunny spring weather, I invited a few women in the city to go out for a walk.

Unexpectedly, after seeing a house, someone started arguing.

Disappointment.

Among the few people here, she has the highest status.

As soon as she spoke, everyone stopped arguing.
