Chapter 83;

Attacked

The fact is just as Lu Yaoyao guessed.

Because the eldest princess interfered, although the prince-in-law was angry in his heart, he was only angry in his heart and did not dare to take any action on the surface.

Lu Yaoyao has been relatively leisurely these two days.

Whether it was perfume, soap, or spirits, she left them all to her second uncle.

After all, doing business is too labor-intensive, so she prefers to be a hands-off shopkeeper.

Since her second uncle didn't bring much money with him when he came to the capital, she transferred one hundred thousand taels of silver from Baizhenlou's account.

Perfume and soap both require workshops. For perfume, you can just find a house in the city.

But this soap is more troublesome.

Because lard is needed, as mentioned before, the pigs in Dongzhou are not castrated and raised, so the meat will have an unpleasant fishy smell.

When she first made soap and boiled lard on the farm, the smell almost made her vomit.

This soap workshop cannot be located in the city, otherwise many people may scold it once the lard is boiled.

We need to find a farm that is not too big outside the city.

Of course, it was not her turn as a little girl who didn't even have haircuts to do these errands.

Although she can't go out to help, she still has a lot of people in the capital.

Transfer some of it and give it to Uncle Lu.

"Yaoyao, the perfume side has started making it, but this soap is a little troublesome."

The ingredients for perfume are relatively simple, and they have them readily available in the local area. They originally acquired two houses from Xu Zhao.

Although the area is not large, it is enough for the current starting stage.

"Did you not find the right Zhuangzi?"

"No, Zhuangzi has already bought it."

"It's just that this material requires lard. You may not know the situation in Dongzhou. Not many people raise these pigs."

Because pork is considered a cheap meat in Dongzhou, ordinary people will not eat it, and almost no one breeds it.

However, Lu Yaoyao raised a lot of them on his farm.

"Second uncle, I told you before that I hope the Lu family will come to Kyoto for development. What do you think?"

Lu Kang was startled and a little surprised. Isn't this talking about the raw material of lard?

How did it come to this?

"Yaoyao, this matter is difficult to handle."

Although because of three new businesses, they have some foundation in Kyoto.

However, the Lu family has lived in Jiangdong for generations, and it took several generations to build the current foundation.

Wouldn't coming to the capital mean giving up more than half of the foundation there?

He really wants to come to the capital, but what about the rest of the family?

For example, can his old father agree?

"I know it's hard to do, but it must be done."

"Oh? Why?"

Lu Kang looked startled when he heard his niece's resolute words.

"Because Xu Zhao is dead."

"Um?"

Lu Kang looked puzzled. Wasn't it a good thing that Xu Zhao was crippled? It didn't sound like it was a good thing.

"Since I returned to the capital, the Xu Zhao couple and the Gao family have been in a passive situation of being beaten."

"Second uncle also said that the power of the Gao family should not be underestimated."

"Do you think Gao Yanming will just let it go?"

As soon as these words came out, Lu Kang's expression changed wildly and he stood up.

In the past few days, because Xu Zhao was disabled and had business matters, he was in a very good mood and very busy, so he forgot about this important matter.

What happened at the eldest princess's house that day has already spread.

Xu Zhao and the Gao family were deposed, and the Gao family suffered a great loss.

Although Lu Yaoyao was not a schemer, with Gao Yanming's methods, he could definitely investigate what role she played in this.

Not to mention that in the end, Lu Yaoyao slapped the Gao family several times in the face in order to remove himself.

Gao Yanming is not a good person.

It certainly won’t be like this.

"So, you want the Lu family to come to Beijing and be under the wings of the eldest princess and the Wen family?"

Lu Yaoyao shook his head.

"It's not entirely because of this, but more because this is the foot of the emperor."

"Second uncle should be aware of the current situation of the Gao family. The emperor is very dissatisfied with them."

"I'm sure I'll clean it up with a knife at any time."

Now Lu Kang understood.

He couldn't help nodding in his mind. It was indeed safer for the Lu family to come to the capital than to stay in Jiangdong.

Although the Gao family would not give up just because they came to the capital.

But they will also weigh it carefully. After all, the emperor is watching, this one may be caught in the pigtails, and their situation will be more difficult than that of the Lu family.

"I understand your plan. When your grandfather and uncle arrive, I will talk to them about this matter."

"Well, I also ask my second uncle to convince my grandfather and uncle."

"If the foundation is gone, you can make more money; if the people are gone, there is nothing."

"Besides, we are not completely without foundation in Kyoto, it's just a matter of hard work for a few years."

Lu Kang nodded repeatedly, it was indeed true. What’s the use of having a foundation if the person is gone?

At this moment, Qiu Shuang ran in from outside in a hurry.

Seeing Lu Kang also there, she hesitated to speak.

"Second uncle is not an outsider. If you have any questions, just tell me."

"There is news from Lao Luo that the old man, uncle and others were attacked."

Lu Kang was stunned at first, but he quickly realized that the old man and uncle were talking about his father and eldest brother, weren't they?

He jumped up immediately.

"What did you say?"

Lu Yaoyao's face also looked a little ugly.

"Tell me exactly what happened?"

Qiu Shuang quickly handed the letter she received to Lu Yaoyao.

After reading the letter with a calm face, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Turning to look at the anxious Uncle Lu beside her, she gave a comforting smile.

"Second uncle, don't worry. My grandfather and uncle were just a little frightened and there were no casualties."

As she spoke, she handed over the letter.

After reading the letter, Lu Kang also breathed a deep sigh of relief.

"so far so good."

"Yao Yao, who is this old Luo?"

"Second uncle, you don't know something. Although Miss has been living on the farm these years, she has secretly trained a lot of people."

"This Lao Luo is one of the people she arranged to go to Jiangdong to protect the Lu family."

Lu Kang turned to look at Lu Yaoyao, feeling a little mixed in his heart.

Guilt, joy, surprise, etc.

To be honest, the Lu family has paid a lot for Lu Yaoyao over the years, and they, the older generation, are fine.

After all, the relationship between father and daughter, brother and sister is there, and they must protect their only bloodline, Lu Yunjun, no matter what.

However, his years of hard work made his wife and sister-in-law, as well as some younger members of the Lu family, very dissatisfied with Lu Yaoyao.

We haven't seen each other all year round, and my wife and children have been nagging in my ears for a long time.

It would be a lie to say that they have no thoughts in their minds.

It's just because Mr. Lu is there to watch over it, otherwise some things might have gone bad long ago.

But today, he discovered that this contribution was not one-sided.

This niece did a lot for them quietly.
