Of course not.
If there was, Madam Lu would not be like this. Not only would she not send her granddaughter here again, she would also seek justice for the deceased.
However, Wen Chun knew this, so he had no scruples.
"Don't worry, old lady. I am not that anxious. I just want to discuss it with you first to avoid any trouble in the future."
Naturally, Lu Seyan couldn't marry in so quickly. Wen Chun always valued his reputation, so how could he give others a handle to laugh at him?
But he has decided on this person.
…
When Lu Ruoyan was alive, she was looked down upon in the palace, but unexpectedly, Wen Chun was so affectionate after her death, and her funeral was quite grand.
Many officials and their families in the capital went to pay their respects, and the Xia family also went, but they did not stay long.
It was normal for Xia Zhi to not go to such a thing, but she heard about the situation from her aunt who had come back.
Naturally, Lei Jiuniang would be the one to handle matters like this. Cheng Han was not as eloquent as her and was not afraid of any situation.
Cheng Han was timid and was afraid of not knowing what to say when she met those ladies. She was also worried about saying the wrong thing and making them angry.
So the task of socializing naturally fell on Lei Jiuniang.
Although Lei Jiuniang was pregnant, she was able to handle this kind of thing with ease, and the family didn't mind it.
After returning, Lei Jiuniang also said that if one didn’t know, one would have thought that Lu Ruoyan was very favored in the palace.
Everyone in the Xia family was aware of Lu Ruoyan's situation. After all, with Xia Zhiliao around, it was hard not to be aware.
"This person is really one thing in front of others and another behind their backs."
Everyone just sighed. The death of a person turned it into a place for some people to show off.
Lu Ruoyan could never have imagined that after her death, she would be used like this.
"The Chinese New Year is coming soon. How should the Lu family celebrate at this time?"
Just thinking about it, Old Lady Xia felt sad for the old lady in the Hou Mansion.
But the Lu family is different.
Although everyone knows that Lu Seyan is going to marry into the Prince Rui's Mansion.
But it was not made public.
Before Lu Ruoyan was around, many people were wary of Lu Seyan because of the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children.
But it's different now.
Even though she was born out of wedlock, she was still the only bloodline of the Lu family.
A rising tide lifts all boats.
Many people with short-sightedness and ill intentions have set their eyes on the fat piece of meat of the Lu family.
After all, the Lu family has no male heirs. From now on, whoever Lu Seyan marries will own the Hou Mansion.
Some people look down on the impoverished Marquis' Mansion, but some people think that a lean camel is bigger than a horse.
As soon as Lu Ruoyan died, some people went to Hou Mansion.
The purpose was to ask to marry Lu Seyan.
For a time, Lu Seyan once again became the topic of discussion among everyone in the capital.
However, because the New Year was approaching and Lu Ruoyan had just died, everyone was just moving around more frequently, and no one was so ignorant as to speak up.
The happiest person was naturally Bai Huiru.
She had been despised by those noble ladies before.
It’s different now. Many people send her messages inviting her to dinner.
The purpose was nothing else but to build relationships and increase the chances of his child marrying Lu Seyan.
That day, Bai Huiru came back slightly tipsy, and despite the servants' attempts to stop her, she went straight to see Lu Seyan.
Lu Seyan frowned, disliking her drunken smell. "Where did you go to drink again? Didn't I tell you not to do this again?"
"It's hard to refuse such a kind invitation." Bai Huiru said with a smile.
"Seyan, you don't know, everyone used to despise me, but now they all praise me. These people are used to flattering the powerful and bullying the weak. I find it funny when I see their faces."
"Those who used to scold me along with the Madam are now trying to curry favor with me. Isn't that funny? I am now more glorious than the Madam."
Lu Seyan sighed, "Since you know that they like to flatter the powerful and bully the weak, you should also know that they are not sincere at all."
"What does it matter?" Bai Huiru laughed innocently, "I don't care. I just want to see them being submissive to me, and then I'll be happy. Seyan, you are really my good daughter. I will still count on you in this life."
When she approached, Lu Seyan took two steps back and ordered the servants to prepare sobering soup.
"No, it's better to be a little drunk. I like this feeling. No one can control me in this mansion now." Bai Huiru was proud and arrogant.
"They are all so stupid that they still want to marry you. Bah, before, I said that the son of the Shangshu family was handsome and well-educated, and wanted you to marry him, but his family didn't like you. Now, his mother is begging me instead."
Bai Huiru became more and more excited as she spoke, "And that general's wife, how stupid! Why would you marry into a family of small officials like theirs? You want to be the emperor..."
"Mom!" Lu Seyan interrupted her with a frown, "Don't drink anymore in the future, and don't go out again. The situation is tense now. If you want to continue to enjoy wealth and glory, then listen to me."
"Where... where have I been?"
"Now that I've said it, you know it. Don't force me to get rid of that person."
Bai Huiru sobered up immediately. It seemed that her daughter really knew it.
"That's not the case. He is..."
"You don't have to explain to me. I have asked someone to send him away."
"Where to send it?" Bai Huiru asked anxiously, "I'll be careful, Seyan, your father is gone, mother..."
Lu Seyan glanced at her coldly, and immediately swallowed the words she had not finished.
"Since you want to be the mistress of the Hou Mansion, you must behave yourself, otherwise I can't protect you."
Bai Huiru nodded, but still wanted to persuade her, "Seyan, I can just stop associating with him, please don't send him away."
"Mother, do you believe what you say?" Lu Seyan looked at her coldly. "It's true that I am the lady of this mansion, but you have to remember your own identity. You are now a concubine of the mansion. If you have an affair with a man outside, think about the consequences."
"I...I understand." Bai Huiru sighed.
The man was handsome and considerate. She had served him for more than ten years. Finally, someone tried to please her in various ways. How could she bear to let him go?
But it doesn’t matter, she can always find another one later.
Bai Huiru sighed, but who should she go to when she felt lonely during this period?
"You'd better stop making such a fuss, or else if the Madam and the old lady find out, you'll have no choice but to go downstairs to find your father."
Bai Huiru nodded reluctantly, "I understand, but how did you find out?"
"If you don't want others to know, then don't do it. Once you do something, people will naturally know about it."
Lu Seyan said coldly: "Don't be optimistic."
After Bai Huiru left, Lu Seyan put down the account book and felt very upset. Why did she have such a restless mother?
