After Masanori Shimizu finished speaking, she looked at Lu Fei and asked, "Isn't this a waste of fuel?"
Lu Fei laughed involuntarily. "How much can this cost?"
Masanori Shimizu walked to the table, grinding as she said, "After coming here, I haven't done anything, and I've been eating and drinking for free for so long …"
Lu Fei interrupted her and said, "You are here to protect the safety of the Lu Mansion. This is what you do. Your monthly food, drink, accommodation, and transportation are nothing." Every month, he would give money to the people in the estate. For example, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and the others all received hundreds of taels of silver. Sometimes, when they went out to do things, they couldn't avoid being rewarded. Han and Zou Yuan even gave them a large sum of money each month. Lu Fei trusted them, so he didn't worry about giving them the money. Masanori Shimizu also received the same treatment as the others. It was just that she hadn't done anything, so she didn't receive any extra rewards.
Masanori Shimizu looked at Lu Fei, puzzled. "But up until now, I haven't done anything, and I haven't protected the safety of the Lu Estate."
Lu Fei smiled. "If someone wanted to kill Yuzhi now, would you ignore it?"
Masanori Shimizu said, "Of course not."
Lu Fei said, "That's right. The Lu Estate is always in danger. You practice martial arts every day to protect the safety of the Lu Estate. Do you understand?"
Masanori Shimizu suddenly understood. "I understand." In an instant, the guilt she had felt these days disappeared without a trace. She beamed. "Look at what I've written." As she spoke, she wrote a few words on a piece of paper. Lu Fei went forward to take a look. It was a poem from the Book of Songs. It was the "Guan Ju" that the world loved to talk about. Masanori Shimizu wrote the first eight words on the paper: "Guan Ju Ju, in the land of the river." When she wrote the last word, she couldn't remember it. She stood there in a daze for a long time, then smiled bitterly. "I forgot."
Lu Fei smiled and took the brush from her hand, saying, "Look carefully." Then he wrote another line on the paper, "A fair and virtuous woman is a good match for a gentleman." Lu Fei's handwriting was vigorous and vigorous. It was naturally a world of difference from Masanori Shimizu's crooked handwriting.
Masanori Shimizu said enviously, "Your handwriting is so beautiful. How did you write it? You just want to hook me, but I can't draw it. " As he spoke, he picked up the pen and drew a tick on the paper. When the pen reached the corner, it stiffly turned upwards. Lu Fei said, "You have to turn the pen here. Otherwise, it'll be like a stick of wood."
Masanori Shimizu couldn't help but laugh. "You do look like a stick of wood." After saying that, he followed Lu Fei's instructions and drew a tick. He smiled and said, "Now I look like a bedbug again."
Lu Fei laughed and said, "You need more experience to spin the pen." As he spoke, he stood behind Masanori Shimizu and grabbed her hand to write on the paper. When he reached the corner, he turned the pen and lifted it up. "So it's like this." Masanori Shimizu leaned back against Lu Fei's broad front and suddenly felt an indescribable feeling. There was a faint fresh scent on Lu Fei's body. It was a unique scent that was emitted when one's skills reached a certain level. At this moment, Masanori Shimizu smelled it like a ball of fire. After inhaling it, her whole body heated up.
Lu Fei saw that her handwriting wasn't right and grabbed her hand to write a few more times. "Actually, you need more practice. There's no shortcut. Many calligraphers only have success when they're old. It's the result of years of hard work."
Masanori Shimizu said with a bitter face, "Decades? Then I'll be an old woman."
Lu Fei laughed and said, "That won't happen. Look at me, I'm not that old. Can't I write well? Calligraphy is also related to one's sense of beauty. The key is practice." Lu Fei was stunned for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, he said, "I'm going back. You practice first."
Masanori Shimizu sent Lu Fei to the door and watched his figure leave for a long time. Only then did she come back to her senses. She closed the door and went to her desk to continue practicing. However, her mind kept replaying the scene of Lu Fei grabbing her hand to write. She couldn't calm down and was absent-minded when she wrote.
Lu Fei walked past Zou Yuzhi's courtyard and went straight in. He heard voices coming from inside. He listened carefully and heard someone pouring water. Kong Yi suddenly said, "Do you think Xiao Fei saw us play cards? Is he angry?"
Gan Qian said, "If he was angry, he would have been angry long ago. Why would he wait until today?"
Kong Yi said, "Or are we gambling?"
Gan Qian said, "We're not gamblers in a casino. Gambling this amount of money isn't much."
Zou Yuzhi sighed, "I'm afraid my second sister-in-law said something wrong."
After saying that, Gan Qian stopped talking. Obviously, she was telling her that she guessed correctly. Kong Yi was embarrassed to say anything. If they really investigated and found out that she stole Zou Yuzhi's man, wouldn't that be awkward?
Zou Yuzhi said, "Actually … actually, I know that Lu Lang is a man. He can't belong to me alone. It's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines."
Gan Qian smiled, "Yuzhi is right. Lu Lang belongs to the entire Lu household. If it wasn't for him, everyone wouldn't be able to live such good lives."
Zou Yuzhi said, "Moreover, he saved the lives of my entire family. Second sister-in-law shouldn't say such things."
Gan Qian comforted, "Don't think too much. Why would Pengju care about these things? You're his precious treasure. He won't blame you."
Zou Yuzhi immediately stammered, "How could that be? Sister Qian is so smart and capable. You'll definitely become his wife in the future."
Gan Qian laughed, "What are you talking about? I don't want to be his wife."
Zou Yuzhi couldn't help but laugh. She begged for forgiveness, "I wouldn't dare."
The situation in the room returned to normal. Gan Qian asked, "Second sister, what are you thinking about?"
Kong Yi said, "Nothing."
Zou Yuzhi whispered, "Could it be that second sister is also thinking about Lu Lang? If you admit it, we won't laugh at you. "
Kong Yi's voice was obviously weak, "How could that be?"
Zou Yuzhi smiled, "Of course, I'm a woman. How could I not know? For such a long time, second sister has been alone. How could you stand it?"
Gan Qian was puzzled, "Stand what?"
Zou Yuzhi smiled, "You're not a woman. You won't understand."
Gan Qian said, "How am I not a woman … ah, I understand. The two of you really don't avoid suspicion. You can even say such embarrassing things."
