Chapter 556 Teacher

Fireworks were still blooming one after another. Miss Du took a few steps and turned her head. Several black shadows shot out from between her fingers and poked into the door frame of the Lu family.

Mu Qing thought she was trying to demonstrate to the Lu family, and his eyes grew colder.

Miss Du said loudly, "I already know about Aunt Lu's condition, and my Du family is not the kind of people who only use their power to bully others."

She turned and left without hesitation: "If you want to attend the meeting, wait for me at the Du family's gate before 3:45 tomorrow evening."

Lu Yunjue said coldly, "We've already made it clear. Miss Du, do you insist on being stubborn and refusing to change your ways?"

Miss Du said with some anger: "Who cares about your stinky man? From now on, I won't bother you anymore. Consider this invitation as an apology!"

After they left, Hu Xin'er said softly, "Eh!" "This thing..."

The three objects inserted into the door panel are rectangular in shape. With the dim light, you can see the brilliance and hidden meaning on them. Obviously, they are not ordinary items.

She pulled it gently and carefully took the thing down, only to find that it was actually an envelope.

Inside the envelope was a bright red invitation with gold sprinkles.

"It's actually an invitation to the Miraculous Medicine Conference?" Hu Xin'er was a little confused. "Miss Du lost so much face today, why did she give us this invitation before leaving?"

Mu Qing shook his head, indicating that he didn't understand what Miss Du meant. "She said she wouldn't bother us again, but I don't know if that's true or not."

"Should we go then?" Hu Xin'er sighed. "Under the circumstances now, it's awkward whether we go or not. Yesterday I thought our relationship had improved, but today it's turned out like this."

Who could have thought that Miss Du would be so humiliating and ask Lu Yunjue to be her son-in-law right from the start?

"She seems really moody," Hu Xin'er murmured. "She's got a childish streak. One moment she's well-educated, gentle and lovely, and the next moment she's unruly and rude. It's really hard to figure her out."

Mu Qing also found the situation a bit tricky. He originally thought that Miss Du was more reasonable than her father, but today he found that neither of them was a good person.

"It's getting late today, let's ignore all this and go back to sleep." Mu Qing noticed that his wife was shivering in the cold wind, so he took the initiative to hold her in his arms.

He looked at his brother and said, "Yun Jue, don't overthink it. The Du family was wrong in this matter. We're not short of medicine right now. You must not sacrifice your marriage for such a small matter."

His tone became more and more serious, and Lu Yunjue nodded. The person who was as cold as ice and exuded chill just now instantly became a well-behaved little cutie in front of his brother.

Mu Qing sighed again, "Staying in Qingzhou is going to be a bit troublesome after all. If you feel uncomfortable here, or if Miss Du continues to bother us, we should pack up and leave, returning to Shuangxi Village early."

"Sister-in-law is now in advanced pregnancy, I'm afraid she can't stand the bumpy ride." Lu Yunjue asked worriedly.

Mu Qing frowned, feeling helpless. "Qingzhou City is crowded with people and eyes, so it's not going to be much safer here. And with Miss Du's fickle nature, if she gets angry when Xin'er is about to give birth and disturbs her, then..."

Before he could finish, Lu Yunjue said quickly, "Brother, you're really thoughtful. If my sister-in-law was frightened because of me, then it would be over!"

Mu Qing patted his shoulder and said, "I'm just making an assumption. You don't have to take it too seriously. So, tomorrow when Mother wakes up, we'll tell her about this."

After the agreement, the couple felt a wave of fatigue washing over them and walked side by side into the room.

What they didn't notice was that Lu Yunjue stood alone at the door for a long time. His shadow was stretched out very long in the moonlight. The fireworks rose and fell, and finally returned to complete silence.

The servant in the gatehouse dozed off, and the sparks of fireworks in the alley gradually died down to ashes.

He walked lightly, stood by the door and looked at the moon for a while, then turned his head to look at the envelope on the door.

One of the three envelopes had already been taken out, but there was still a shallow groove on the door frame. He pulled out one of them and opened it, and found that his name was written on it.

It was still a beautiful piece of calligraphy with hairpin flowers, and it didn't look like it was written by a martial arts woman like Miss Du.

He rubbed the three words with his fingertips, not knowing what he was thinking. Until the paper became a little hot from his rubbing, he withdrew his hand and put the invitation and envelope into his sleeve.

There, there was a piece of pink flower note lying quietly.

The next morning, Hu Laosan and others got up early and quietly cleaned up the mess left by their senior sister yesterday.

Jiang Ning sat obediently beside Lu's mother, but his eyes still looked a little dull.

Mother Lu said lovingly, "Good boy, don't be shy. Just treat this place as your own home. Come, try this winter bamboo shoots in chicken sauce..."

Mu Qing found an opportunity to talk about his plan to return to Shuangxi Village.

Unexpectedly, she received a rare and strong objection from Lu's mother: "Aren't we living well in Qingzhou? Why do we have to go back to the countryside?"

Mu Qing was stunned. "Is mother worried that I won't be able to adapt to life in the countryside?"

Mother Lu frowned and put down her chopsticks. "How come you don't think about your wife at all? She's so pregnant, and you have the heart to let her suffer the bumps?"

Hu Xin'er said hurriedly, "Don't misunderstand, mother. I actually miss the village. After all, it was the first place I lived after coming here."

Hearing this, Mother Lu's attitude softened considerably, but she still refused to return to the village. "I think it's going to snow in a few days. By then, the mountains will be completely blocked by snow. How will we be able to enter the village? You two are both childish. Just listen to my advice and stay calm for a while before you do anything else."

The couple looked at each other, both feeling a bit troubled. How should they persuade Lu's mother tactfully?

Mother Lu continued, "After you give birth to the child and our family settles down, you can take the child to visit the countryside... and..."

She hesitated for a moment and said, "Ning'er is already thirteen or fourteen years old. I'm afraid she needs to find a teacher to teach her how to read and paint. Jue'er and Mu'er, you've both changed your faces now. Why don't you take the trouble to help Sister Ning find a way?"

After these words were spoken, everyone suddenly understood.

It turned out that Mother Lu was unwilling to return to Shuangxi Village because of Jiang Ning.

After all, Jiang Ning had been wandering outside for so many years. Even if she returned to the Lu family, she was a beggar after all, and she looked dull.

If you don’t have any special skills, how can you find a good family in the future?
