Being chased out of the compound~

After understanding the ins and outs of the situation, Lady Lu’s face turned black. She swept her dagger-like eyes past the housekeeper and Lu Ao, before awkwardly speaking to Shao Qian, “This…… Gongzi. The foolish me has taught my son improperly, I hope you can understand and look past this matter.”

随后,将事情的来龙去脉弄清楚的陆夫人脸都黑了。她眼刀子扫过管家跟陆敖,而后尴尬的对邵谦开口道:“这位……公子。我二人教子无方,得罪之处还望见谅。”

“Miss is too courteous.” Shao Qian smiled. “Lu Ao honest and straightforward. I got along with him quite well these past two days.”

“夫人客套。”邵谦笑道:“陆敖为人耿直豪爽,这一两日相处下来倒也不错。”

Hearing this, Lady Lu smiled gently. However, her smiling expression disappeared as she looked towards Lu Ao with a frown. “In the end, this son of mine [1] has been spoiled by his father. I hope this Gongzi will be magnanimous and look past his past sins.”

陆夫人闻言轻笑,不过随即又收敛笑容皱眉看着陆敖:“犬子终归被他爹宠坏,这两日有得罪之处还望公子海涵。”

“Naturally, I won’t blame anyone.” Shao Qian glanced at Lu Ao, his eyes filled with profound meaning before he laughed. “Lu Ao didn’t do it intentionally. And after interacting with him, I found him quite likable.”

“自是不会怪罪。”邵谦饶有深意的看了陆敖一眼,然后笑道:“陆敖无心机,相处下来倒也合心意。”

Hearing those words, Lady Lu’s facial expression changed, however, the smile was immediately back in place as she spoke to Shao Qian, “Since the foolish me has already returned, I naturally won’t let him be as headstrong and reckless anymore. This Gongzi can rest here for a while. I will get someone to seng Gongzi back to his residence tomorrow.”

陆夫人闻言脸色一变,随即又挂上笑容对邵谦道:“既然我二人已回来,自是不能让他任性妄为。今日公子再歇息一番,名儿我便差人送公子回府。”

Shao Qian arched an eyebrow upon hearing this. He was being driven out? As expected, it really isn’t easy to accept one’s son liking a man.

“Mother, who said Qing Xuan wanted to leave?” Lu Ao walked over and stood in front of Shao Qian. “He is the partner I set my mind on. No one is allowed to chase him out.”

“娘,谁说清玄要离开?”陆敖走过来挡在邵谦前面:“他是我认定的伴侣,谁都不能赶他走。”

“Lu Ao.” Madame Lu’s glowered angrily. “I see that you have really been spoiled rotten by your father.”

“陆敖。”陆夫人怒目以示:“我看你当真是被你爹惯坏了。”

“……” Lord Lu, who had been continuously ridiculed unjustly, had a bitter face on. When did he ever take care of this boy? Normally, wasn’t it his wife that would severely dote on this eldest son?

“……”连着躺枪的陆堡主苦着脸,他何时管着这小子?平日里还不是夫人更为疼爱这个长子?

“Mother, at that time it was you who said it. If and when I ever meet the person who makes my heart skip a beat, even if it is by unscrupulous methods, I must seize them.” Lu Ao answered with a angry face. “Qing Xuan is my beloved person. In this life of mine, I only want to be with him. I can only be with him.”

“娘亲,当初可是你说,遇到心动之人就算不择手段也要夺得。”陆敖回以怒颜:“清玄便是我心爱之人,这辈子我只想与他在一起,也只能跟他在一起。”

“You…… Get out from my sight.” Lady Lu threw the decorative water jar by the side towards Lu Ao. Hugging Shao Qian, Lu Ao hurriedly dodged it. However, even though he was able to dodge the jar, he wasn’t able to dodge the water.

“你……你给我滚。”陆夫人抄起旁边装饰的水缸就朝陆敖砸了过去。陆敖抱着邵谦赶忙躲开,只不过躲得了缸,却躲不了水。

Lu Ao blocked quite a lot for Shao Qian. In a matter a moments, his entire back was splashed wet with water. He hugged Shao Qian and immediately ran towards the outside. “Mother, I’ll follow Qing Xuan to the Bai residence first. After a few days, when your anger has subsided, I’ll bring Qing Xuan back again.”

邵谦被陆敖挡着要好很多,陆敖几乎整个后背都被水溅湿。他抱着邵谦直接往外跑:“娘亲,我先随着清玄回白家,过些时日您消气了,我再带着清玄回来。”

“Leave and don’t come back again.” Although Lady Lu raised a hue and cry, she didn’t take any other action.

“滚了就别再回来。”陆夫人虽说嘴上叫嚣,但却也没有其他动作。

“Why did you chase him away for?” Based on his wife’s personality, Lord Lu firmly believed that she would be able to beat Lu Ao half to death. Who knew that she would simply chase him out? Chasing him out like this, isn’t it just like letting a bird fly freely in the wide open sky?

“把人赶出去作甚?”陆堡主以为依照自家夫人的秉性能把陆敖打个半死。谁知仅仅是把人赶了出去?你把人赶走了,这还不是天高任鸟飞?

“As long as your son has someone who wants him, then it’s fine.” Towards this son, Lady Lu felt her heart really shatter. Seeing the housekeeper’s letter that he finally s.n.a.t.c.hed one with much difficulty, she had even thought that what was done was done, if that lady didn’t accept it, then she would make her accept. Who knew that the one who this thing brought back was a Gongzi……

“只要你儿子能有人要就好。”对于这个儿子,陆夫人觉得自己当真操碎了心。看到管家信件好不容易抢了一个,还想着生米煮成熟饭那姑娘不同意也得同意。谁知这货弄回来的是一位公子……

There was no personal integrity to talk about between men. Even if you tied him up and sent him to her son’s bed, if he wants to leave he will still leave. Moreover, if this matter was to be spread outside, did their Lu family still want to have a foothold in the Jianghu?

Furthermore, based on the few questions she had asked just now, that good-looking Gongzi probably didn’t have any favourable impression towards her son. It would be better to her son out to share life’s joys and sorrows with that Gongzi, then wouldn’t the two men have a harmonious relationship?

There isn’t a choice but to say, Lady, you think too far. You totally didn’t consider at all what kind of predicament the two peniless men, who you drove out, would be having.

After leaving the Lu residence, Lu Ao’s entire body was listless. His head drooped, as if it wished to fall onto the ground. From time to time, his eyes would gaze at the expression of the person beside him.

“What are you looking at me for?” With a smile yet not a smile, Shao Qian looked at Lu Ao and questioned.

“看我作甚?”邵谦似笑非笑的看着陆敖问道。

“Qing Xuan, I’m homeless now.” Lu Ao looked at Shao Qian pathetically. “You said that your Bai family is lacking a Di wife.”

“清玄,我无家可归了。”陆敖可怜兮兮的看着邵谦:“你说好你白府缺个嫡夫人。”

“I’ll write a letter to inform my parents.” Shao Qian walked forward slowly, waiting until Lu Ao caught up to his side before reaching out and entwining their fingers together. “It’s a nice time of the year right now, wouldn’t it be nice if the two of us went travelling?”

“我会书信一封禀告爹娘。”邵谦慢走两步等陆敖走到身侧,伸手与之五指交握:“如今正是大好时光,不若你我二人游历一番?”

“Of course it’ll be nice.” Lu Ao held Shao Qian’s hand tightly as he grinned happily. However, he immediately remembered that he had been chased out, and it seemed like he didn’t bring any silver along wifh him. In an instant, his face became bitter. “Qing Xuan, the two of us don’t have any silver.”

“自是好。”陆敖握紧邵谦的手咧嘴笑笑。不过随即他想到自己被赶了出来,身上好似并无带着银两,顿时脸都苦了:“清玄,你我二人没有银两。”

Shao Qian was just about to suggest finding a p.a.w.nshop to sell some things, when he heard the sound of a running horse from behind.

Shao Qian and Lu Ao turned around and saw a robust black horse trotting over. Lu Ao was pleasantly surprised upon seeing the horse. “Heizi, you came to find me?”

邵谦与陆敖转头去看,看到一匹壮硕黑马小跑而来。陆敖看到马儿惊喜道:“黑子,你跑出来寻我?”

As there was a clothed bundle on the saddle, the horse was obviously sent out by someone. “Someone in the residence probably sent it over.”

看着马鞍上的包袱,这马儿明显是被人放出来的:“应当是堡中人将它送来。”

“It’s most likely fourth uncle.” Lu Ao retrieved the cloth bag from the saddle and opened it. Seeing the food, clothing and money inside of it, his face lit up in joy. “We have money now.”

“应当是四叔。”陆敖将马鞍上的包袱取下来,打开看到里面干粮衣物银钱时喜笑颜开:“咱有钱了。”

“When we return back in the future, thank mother properly.” If Lady Lu didn’t allow anything to be sent to Lu Ao, it was likely that the horse definitely wouldn’t be able to leave the gates.

“待日后回了家,好生谢谢母亲。”若是陆夫人不让给陆敖送什么,只怕这马儿绝对出不了大门。

“Of course.” Lu Ao placed the money away, hanging yhe cloth bag on the horse’s body before speaking to Shao Qian, “Qing Xuan, you sit at the front.”

“这是自然。”陆敖将银钱放好,将包袱挂在马儿身上对邵谦开口道:“清玄,你坐前面。”

Shao Qian didn’t have any objections, immediately flipping himself onto the horse. After he did that, Lu Ao also flipped himself onto it. His arms hesitantly stretched towards Shao Qian waist, however, even after half a day, he still didn’t dare to really embrace the other person.

Shao Qian immediately pulled his hands, making them encircle his own waist. He pulled on the reins, using his legs to urge the horse forward. The horse released a whinny before it started to run quickly.

Lu Ao hugged Shao Qian tightly with his arms. His beloved person’s waist was really slender. Such a slender waist, he was afraid that it would break the moment he uses a tiny bit of force.

After the two of them left the city, Shao Qian referred to the system’s map and headed in the direction of Shandong city.

“Qing Xuan, where are we going?” They were headed towards the south, where the Bai residence was located in. But didn’t they agree that they would not return to the Bai residence for now?

“清玄,我们去何处?”这方向是朝南行,白府也在南边。但不是说暂时不回白府?

“The south to travel.” According to the current time, there was still two years before the martial arts convention. And as both of them also didn’t have anything they needed to do, they might as well go travelling everywhere.

“去南方游历一番。”按照时间来看,还有两年便是武林大会,他二人也没什么事情可做,不如四处走走。

“That’s nice.” Towards this, Lu Ao was very pleased. It would be the same no matter where he goes. So long as Qing Xuan was with him, even if it was to the ends of the earth, he would still be willing to go

“自是好。”陆敖对这个很是满意,他是去哪里都一样。只要有清玄在,就算天涯海角他也愿意一起去。

On the way, Shao Qian got someone to send a letter to the Bai family. Within the letter, he had explained his situation in great detail, putting great emphasis on the matter that it was Lu Ao who saved his life when he was captured by people. Furthermore, he had also specifically mentioned that after he heard his little brother’s words, he had wanted to see whether the so-called Jianghu was the same as what was depicted in the books.

Lord Bai had been frantically searching for his son, but upon receiving the letter and seeing the familiar handwriting reporting that he was safe, he let out a sigh of relief. Who knew that when he saw the contents on the back, he was furious to the extent that he nearly fainted.

This…… This was the greatest outrage. He actually dared to collude with outsiders, intending on claiming his Di brother’s life. His heart can plot, his behaviour can kill. (?)

这……这当真是大逆不道,居然胆敢联合外人想要取嫡兄性命,其心可诛,其行可杀。

Lord Bai, who wanted to beat up his three sons, immediately overlooked Shao Qian’s last sentence. The relationship between him and Lu Ao is very harmonious. This kind of tying the knot words.

Throughout the two years when Shao Qian and Lu Ao were outside, they would always send a letter to their families to report their well-being every two months. Within this two years, they had practically walked over the entire southern area once.

These past two years pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye. Getting the wind that many Jianghu people have began a.s.sembling in Shandong city, Shao Qian and Lu Ao also started to turn round and head back there.

The Lu husband and wife has already arrived at Shandong city around a month ago. At that time, they had chased their foolish son out, and in the end, he really didn’t come home for two years. Luckily, Qing Xuan had the heart to send them letters to report their well-being. If that wasn’t so, it was likely that they would already order for his capture.

Unconsciously, Shao Qian had won over several people in the Lu family.

Over on this side, Shao Qian and Lu Ao had just set foot into Shandong city when they were captured head-on by the Lu family’s guards who were watching the city gates.

“Boy, you really have some skills.” Lady Lu went forward and threw a strike towards the back of Lu Ao’s head. “You actually dared to not return home, or send any news for two years.”

“小子,你当真本事了。”陆夫人上来便对着陆敖的后脑勺来了一下:“居然当真敢两年不回家传递消息。”

“Wasn’t it you who made me go?” Lu Ao felt wronged. At that time, it was his mother who chased him out. And now, it was his mother who said that he didn’t come back home or send any news. A woman’s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea, this saying really wasn’t wrong.

“不是您让我走么?”陆敖委屈,当初赶他走的是娘亲,现如今说他不回家传递消息的也是娘亲。都说女人心海底针,这当真不错。

“It’ll be better if you don’t speak too much.” Shao Qian used knocked his head with a fan. After that, he cupped his fist in his hand, greeting Lady Lu and Lord Lu as he smiled. “Uncle, Auntie, I haven’t seen you for a long time.

“你少说话便好。”邵谦拿着扇敲敲他的脑袋。而后对陆夫人与陆堡主抱拳笑道:“伯父伯母久见。”

“Good child.” Lady Lu really felt that her foolish son had delayed someone’s well-behaved child. (?) That’s why, when she was in front of Shao Qian, she would really have a genial expression, her eyes shining with love.

“好孩子。”陆夫人当真觉得自家这个混小子耽误了人家好孩子。所以,在面对邵谦时,那当真是和颜悦色,眼露慈爱。

“Elder brother Bai. I haven’t seen you for a long time.” After two years, Lu Ning Er had also grown up to be a lady. Due to that, there were even more talented youth who who visit the Lu residence for various reasons, hoping that they could be in the beauty’s good graces.

“白大哥许久未见。”两年未见,陆凝儿也已长成大姑娘了,更是有不少年轻才俊以各种理由拜访陆家堡,以求得到美人青睐。
