Even when begging on the street, one must be mindful of the methods and approaches.

If you are dressed in rags and smell bad, you'll be lucky if passersby don't avoid you, let alone beg for money.

If you encounter someone with a bad temper, they might even kick you a couple of times.

Therefore, at this moment, Lu and Jin's faces were still relatively clean, and Lu Baomei recognized them at a glance.

"Don't make a move yet."

When Madam Lu saw that her eldest daughter was doing so well, she was overjoyed.

She took a few steps forward, wanting to reach out and pull Lu Baomei, but was blocked by two tall servants.

He could only awkwardly withdraw his hand, stop in his tracks, and ask, "Bao Mei, where do you live now?"

Your sister-in-law and I just went out; we haven't had lunch yet.

Why don't you take me home and have a meal?

I'll go back with you to see my successful son-in-law while I'm at it.

Upon hearing this, the maid beside her whispered a reminder, "Aunt Bao, we can't make decisions about bringing people back to the manor without the master's permission!"

Both Madam Lu and Madam Jin were taken aback by these words.

grown ups?

Aunt?

The two unfamiliar names made them exchange a glance.

Lu Baomei was previously arranged by the Lu family elders to marry the eldest brother of the Jin family as part of a marriage exchange.

They originally thought the two had died on the road to escape famine, but unexpectedly, Lu Baomei transformed into a concubine of a wealthy family.

Jin's eyes reddened as she said, "Bao Mei, my eldest brother..."

She couldn't bring herself to ask the rest of the question, fearing that her words might become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

But Lu Baomei didn't care about her feelings. "On the way to escape the famine, she took the last bit of food and ran away on her own."

Who knew he would be killed by bandits.

When she said this, Lu Baomei's expression was very calm, and there was no sign of the suffering she had endured.

Upon hearing this, Jin's legs went weak, she staggered two steps, and almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, there was a wall nearby, and I managed to hold onto it to avoid falling to the ground.

Madam Lu was still thinking of going home with Lu Baomei, and glared angrily at the maid beside her, "What kind of son-in-law refuses to meet his mother-in-law? Baomei, your mother loved you the most when you were little."

Now that your elder brother Changhu has broken his leg and is bedridden all day, it seems he won't be able to take care of me anymore.

For the sake of your mother's love and care, please take her with you and live together.

Upon hearing this, the unsuspecting maids all looked at Madam Lu with cold eyes.

From just a few words, I sensed something was wrong.

The maid glanced at Lu Baomei, received a look, and shouted, "You shameless old woman! Since ancient times, a married daughter is like water spilled from a cup."

In all my life, I've never seen anyone shamelessly want to live with their son-in-law.

When Lu was insulted in the street by a little girl, her face turned red with anger, and even her neck turned red.

She cursed loudly, "You little hussy, how dare you talk back to your mistress! Are you blind or stupid?!"

"I'll make sure my daughter doesn't sell you off to the lowest brothel."

The maid retorted, "If you're really so capable, then extend your reach into this mansion. If I end up like that, it's just bad luck!"

Just as Madam Lu was about to throw a tantrum, Lu Baomei spoke up, "Back then, you married me off to an ugly butcher so that your eldest brother could find a wife. Now you have the nerve to say that you love me the most."

You sold my little sister away, and now you're using me as a bride in exchange for marriage. You really know how much you love me!

You guys used to like to freeload, and every time that happened, the butcher would curse and beat me.

Now you still want to suck my blood and eat my flesh.

That's utterly wishful thinking!

Every word was sarcastic, and there was no reason why Madam Lu couldn't understand it. She wanted to explain, but couldn't find a reason to.

Upon hearing Lu Baomei's words, Jin didn't dare to take a step forward. She even wanted to find a crack to crawl into, fearing that Lu Baomei's anger would affect her.

Immediately afterwards, the two heard Lu Baomei's voice.

"Tell the manager that these two are not allowed to appear near the restaurant from now on."

The accountant following behind quickly responded.

After saying that, Lu Baomei, along with her maid, got into the carriage without looking back.

Madam Lu tried to chase after him, but was pushed to the ground by a servant, wincing in pain.

Only after watching the carriage drive away from the street corner did the accountant turn his gaze away.

This restaurant was originally run by Aunt Zhang, but now, for some reason, it has been taken over by Aunt Bao.

However, no matter what, they are just doing things for money, and it doesn't matter much to them who it is.

The accountant turned around and looked at the two women sitting on the ground.

He called out to his waiter and then chased the man away.

Lu was kicked out, and her back was so sore from the fall that she couldn't straighten up and could only walk with Jin's help.

The two had thought they had found hope, but their efforts ended in vain, and they were even injured and suffered.

Now that Kim has calmed down, she has finally come to terms with it.

Her elder brother died on the way to escape famine, and it seems that Lu Baomei has remarried.

Even now, Jin feels a chill in her heart when Lu Baomei looks at her with hostility.

Begging on the streets is no longer an option.

So, Jin helped Lu and hurried toward the thatched hut in Heping Village.

As she walked, Madam Lu cursed, "One or two of them, they're all heartless sluts!"

Lu Changping led a group of people to break the legs of her biological father and brother.

Now that Lu Baomei has become successful, she refuses to acknowledge her relatives.

The Lu sisters, Qiqi and Qi'qi, are the most heartless. Their family had sought refuge with them, yet they turned them away.

They even lost their house, and now they have to live in a thatched hut.

The thought of Lu Changping filled Jin with rage.

She truly regretted giving birth to her; otherwise, her father and Tiger wouldn't be bedridden and crippled!

The two of them were already walking slowly, and now that Lu's back was injured, the journey that originally took one hour took them two full hours to get home.

Jin helped Lu with one hand and reached out to push the door open.

With a creak, the door opened.

As the light shone in from outside, the two people standing outside saw several men in black standing inside and nearly fainted from fright.

Jin was the first to react, craning her neck to check what was happening inside the room.

Mustering her courage, Madam Lu asked, "Who are you people?"

Seeing that the other party did not respond, her voice immediately became weak, even with a hint of pleading, "Gentlemen, my family lives in a thatched hut and usually begs. We really have no money to give."

If you don't believe me, you are welcome to search."

After hearing what Lu said, the man in black remained silent.

The two men saw a man in black come out of the house and give the order, "Take all four of them away."

"Who are you, and what do you want?"

"Help! Help..."

Two men in black used drugs to knock out the two men, covering their mouths and noses, and then put them into a carriage.

A man in black asked, "Nine Guards, what should we do next?"

An Jiu glanced at the carriage and whispered, "Head to the new capital immediately!"
