Chapter 109 The Young Master and the Farmhand 16
Early the next morning, Yu Miao was still curled up in the quilt, with red flowers blooming on his exposed skin.
Lu Changning lowered his head and looked into Yu Miao's sleepy eyes, his brows full of tenderness.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. The harsh sound made Yu Miao frown in his sleep.
Lu Changning looked displeased. Who was so ignorant as to come and cause trouble like this so early in the morning?
When I opened the door, Niutou's big, mean face appeared before my eyes.
"Brother Niu, what's up so early in the morning?"
Niu Tou smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm looking for you to go to the restaurant for breakfast. Is your boyfriend awake? Let's go together! There are sweet cakes this morning."
Lu Changning was speechless. He thought something terrible was going to happen, but in the end it was all for a bite of sweet cake? Sure enough, there was a reason why Niutou was not popular. This guy was simply tactless.
"No, I have someone special to deliver breakfast." You don't have to go to the cafeteria.
Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, the bull head exploded: "Who do you think brought you breakfast? It was me! The protagonist of my world has condescended to invite you to eat, and you actually want me to bring it to your room! Don't think I won't beat you up just because you have a higher status than me! If you provoke me, I will beat you out of your true form."
Lu Changning looked at the exploding bull head and stifled a laugh: "Don't you have servants? Why are you the one delivering it?"
Niu Tou was angry: "Do you think I am just talking when I serve tea and water? Those old guys are too suspicious and always think that the servants are plotting to harm them. They had to choose someone from their own tribe to serve. If they are so worried, why don't they cook for themselves and cause trouble for a small follower like me?"
It turns out that the reason I wake myself up so early is to do less work!
"Hurry up and go eat. Don't expect me to bring it to you."
Helplessly, Lu Changning could only change his clothes and go to the cafeteria.
When Yu Miao woke up, he found himself alone in the huge room.
What happened? Where is Xiao Lu? Could it be that everything that happened last night was just a dream?
But the physical fatigue and the marks on his body did not seem fake. He and Xiao Lu were...really together last night.
Not knowing where the person was, Yu Miao fell into panic. He wrapped himself in a quilt and sat on the bed like an abandoned animal, with his head hanging, feeling unsafe everywhere.
This was the scene Lu Changning saw when he returned with the lunch box. He quickly walked over and hugged the man and the blanket in his arms.
"What's wrong? Why are you sitting here? Are you feeling unwell?"
Yu Miao opened his big wet eyes and looked at Lu Changning: "Where have you been? I thought I couldn't find you again."
Lu Changning hugged her tighter: "I went to get you breakfast! The canteen is a little far from here, so it took a little effort. Don't worry, I'm here. Otherwise, ask them to bring it over next time so you don't have to worry."
Yu Miao nestled in the crook of Lu Changning's shoulder and shook his head: "Don't worry about me, it's just that the dream last night was too beautiful, and I was worried that it was fake. Now that I know it's really you next to me, I'm not afraid anymore."
Help, who can bear Yu Miao's soft voice at this time! Anyway, Lu Changning can't.
Who would have thought that the young master who was cold, lonely and arrogant at the beginning would show such a soft look in his arms at this moment. It really touched Lu Changning's heart and made him unable to stop.
After all, they are newlyweds, and apart from the breakfast incident this morning, there have been no more troubles.
But on the next day, the current head of the Liu family summoned Lu Changning.
Knowing that this was a hurdle that he had to overcome, Lu Changning did not refuse and went to the study immediately.
The current head of the Liu family is Liu Changning's grandfather, who is now eighty years old. He outlasted a large number of competitors and successfully ascended to the position of head of the family.
Then he watched helplessly as his nephews and nephews killed each other and his brothers fought among themselves.
He had seen too many conspiracies and intrigues in his life. In order to stabilize the internal strife of the Liu family, he finally rejected all objections and decided to make Liu Changning, who was still pregnant, the next head of the family.
Lu Changning pushed open the heavy door of the study. An old man with white hair and beard sitting in a wheelchair had been waiting for him for a long time. The wide wheelchair made the already thin old man look even smaller. However, those eyes were frightening.
As a person who had been a demon in hell for hundreds of years, Lu Changning was naturally not frightened by his eyes. According to the original owner's memory, he respectfully called him grandpa and sat directly opposite the old man.
The patriarch didn't say anything about Lu Changning's appearance. He just kept looking at him and finally nodded slightly: "Not bad, you have grown taller and stronger. How come you finally came back for a man after hiding outside for so many years?"
It seems that the person who knows the original owner best in the family is the old man in front of him.
"Grandpa, please forgive me. Changning didn't hide on purpose. He was injured in the flood and lost his memory. It's only a few years late."
The head of the Liu family snorted coldly: "If you hadn't been injured and lost your memory, do you think you would still be sitting here? I would have tied you up and taken you to the Discipline Hall to be punished."
"Thank you for not punishing me, Grandpa."
The head of the Liu family patted the thick stack of information on the table and said, "Look, if you get married, the outside world will be in turmoil. There are spies from major families everywhere. Changning, what are your plans? How are you going to deal with these families in the future?"
Lu Changning looked at the stack of information, only glanced at it, and then turned his gaze back to his grandfather: "Since they are interested, then the grandson will play with them."
After coming out of the study, Lu Changning did not return to the bedroom, but went directly to Niu Tou's room.
After a busy day, Niu Tou finally finished delivering breakfast to the uncles and was ready to take a break before delivering lunch. Just as he lay down on the bed, Lu Changning came over directly.
Niu Tou got up in shock when he heard the noise. The flattering expression on his face instantly collapsed after he saw Lu Changning. He turned around and lay back on the bed: "I thought some uncle of yours came to assign tasks again, it turned out to be you! Don't bother me if you have nothing to do. I'm getting off work now."
Lu Changning didn't care whether Niu Tou was at work or not, and sat down on his bed.
"Brother Niu, I have a big plan and I need your help."
Niutou didn't care about any big plans. How could a small person like him, who served tea and water, be worthy of big plans? He turned his back to this unfortunate colleague and said, "Now is my ten-year dormant period. Just pretend that I don't exist."
Lu Changning used his muscles to forcefully break the bull's head back: "Brother Niu, this is a big plan that can change the world. You don't want to send me food for the next ten years, do you?"
Hearing that there was no need to deliver food, Niu Tou became interested: "Tell me more about it."
"When I was a farmhand, I felt that this world was weird and outrageous. Everything revolved around a few top families. Commoners were completely reduced to their foils. This is not right. We belong to the same world and should live together. Without the foil of commoners, the big families are nothing. But they don't take the lives of common people seriously. Brother Niu, I want to change this situation."
Niutou nodded: "So, how do you want to change?"
"Of course we have to fight! As long as we defeat the other families, we can naturally accomplish what we want to do."
Niutou scratched his head: "You mean, forcing the major families to give way to the common people is too far-fetched."
Lu Changning disagrees: "The existence of this world is a fantasy. How can there be a world that treats people's lives as a joke?"
Lu Changning continued, "The Liu family is the largest family, but not the only one! Their words carry weight, but they don't have the final say. So, I want to make the Liu family the only family. That way, I will have the opportunity to enact laws to restrict everyone's words and deeds, and give civilians the opportunity to appeal for grievances."
Niu Tou's eyes narrowed when he heard this: "Are you dreaming? How can this be possible?"
"Why can't it be realized? Other small worlds can smoothly transform from slavery to feudal monarchy, why can't this small world?"
This...seems to make sense!
