Chapter 214 Sister, is he stupid?

When Qi left, Lu Xinran's words were still circling in her mind: Liu's waist and legs are sore every day, and the thought of being eaten by that guy at night makes her feel sweet and headache...

What on earth did she eat today?

But she had to admit that what she heard was so bizarre that it diluted her anger and sorrow.

As she got on the carriage back home, her heart gradually calmed down.

Can't divorce!

It wasn't her who did anything wrong, why should she get a divorce!

If she left the Fan family to make Fan Tian happy, how would her children and grandchildren cope with the future?

And there was that bastard who had been fighting with her all her life. No matter what she said, she couldn't just let that guy go.

Pei was right. She had to keep her body in good shape and outlast that scumbag Fan Tian.

When he dies, she will get back everything he owes her in his life!

When she returned home, she was able to suppress her anger and deal with the aftermath calmly.

After Zhao sent her son away, she hurried to Pei's room.

When Pei saw her excited look, she guessed why she came here.

"Mom, I will never marry Xin Lan to the Tang family. Even if Liu begs me on her knees, I will not agree."

Pei sighed, knowing that this guy would always say things like this.

"Then do you have a family in mind that is suitable for Miss Xinlan? Just like what the second girl asked for, the family background is clean and simple, the parents-in-law are not harsh, and the young man has also thought clearly that he does not want to take a concubine and make things difficult for his wife.

"If you can find a family like this, I don't care which family Xinlan marries into.

"As long as her husband's family treats her well and is willing to pamper her, that would be a blessing for that girl."

Zhao was stunned by what Pei said. Finding a family like this?

Where could she find one? Her husband Yuan Heng already had a maid who would become a concubine after she got married.

She was still feeling resentful, "But the Tang family went back on their word. They had clearly agreed to arrange marriages for the two children after they were done with the mourning period, but Liu went around looking for someone!"

What’s even more infuriating is that he found a husband for Tang Wanrou who was the eldest son of a Duke’s family.

It would be fine if Zhang Xinji was inferior to her Yuanheng in every way, but she could still feel jealous in her heart.

Now, she is really angry.

Pei smiled at her soothingly: "There's no rush for this. The Tang family just had an initial idea. What if they fall in love with another girl? If we think too much, it will just be wishful thinking."

"No girl from another family can compare to our Xin Lan!"

She knows that she has a bad temper and is stupid!

But her daughter Xinlan grew up with Pei, she is intelligent, smart and good-looking, she is fit to be a match for the prince, but it would be too high for her to be a match for Tang Chongli!

Seeing that she had gotten into another difficult issue, Pei smiled and added another sentence.

"So let's not rush. Let's see what's going on at the Tang family. You're not unimpressed by that family anyway, so let's look around and find a good family for Xinran."

"But……"

In the end, Zhao left with a troubled look on her face.

She was unwilling to promise Lu Xinlan to Tang Chongli, and she could not accept that Liu looked down on Lu Xinlan and focused her attention on other families.

That Tang Chongli hasn't even passed the imperial examination and has no academic title. Why does he look down on her precious daughter?

As soon as Zhao left, Nanny Xu immediately stepped forward and rubbed Pei's shoulders while speaking with a smile.

"Madam, you are really good at this."

But just a few words shifted Zhao's attention from wanting to embarrass Liu to fighting to the death if Liu didn't come to propose marriage.

Pei smiled and sighed: "My daughter-in-law, ah, has a good heart, but she is too stupid."

When emotions get high, people tend to get stuck in a rut.

She and Lu Xinran have always been at odds with each other as mother and daughter. When they get together, they are like fighting chickens because of her impulsive and ungrateful personality.

Fortunately, Xinran never bothered with her. As long as she didn't cause trouble, she would treat this biological mother as if she didn't exist.

Aunt Xu also thought of Lu Xinran's attitude towards Zhao: "The second young lady's days in the mansion are numbered, and she and the first lady... this is also good."

"Yes, it's good."

What can I do if it’s not good?

That girl is also stubborn.

That's it. She's old and can't control too much.

Forcing a reconciliation would only make them both unhappy and would only cause trouble for myself.

In the following days, Lu Xinran was waiting for the final outcome of the case.

She could learn from Lu Jinchuan's pamphlet that the emperor had never interfered in this matter.

If the emperor does not intervene, the decision-making power of this case will be in Song Junyan's hands.

If it were an ordinary citizen, this case would be easy to decide, but Peng Ruide was born in a baron's mansion. If someone put pressure on him, then there is no telling how this case will turn out.

She was curious and wanted to know how he would respond if Uncle Rong put pressure on him.

This case had become known to the entire court, and there must have been quite a few people waiting for his reaction.

She didn't have to wait too long. On February 23, the news that Fan Ling and Peng Ruide were sentenced to death by beheading reached the Lu Mansion.

Lu Xinran also saw the life value settlement from the system, three months, not too much nor too little.

After all, compared with the case of the Sun family, where nine generations of the family were exterminated, this was nothing.

This result alone caused quite a stir in the court. He did not give Uncle Rong any face at all, and everyone heard that Uncle Rong's plea to the emperor was not enough to make him change the verdict.

"Sister, is he stupid?"

What good would it do him to offend these court officials?

Does he really not want to be emperor?

But if he doesn't become the emperor, can he guarantee that after someone else ascends the throne, he can live a stable and carefree life as a prince?

Lu Xinlan met her puzzled look and just smiled and said, "You can ask him next time you meet."

Now that the man has finished the case, he should be able to find time to meet her in private, right?

Lu Xinran obviously misunderstood and looked at her strangely: "Ask him in person if he is stupid?"

That man is a prince, and will be the big boss in the future. Is she crazy?

Lu Xinlan was amused by her and raised his hand to pinch her chubby cheeks.

"Of course, we should ask him whether he really doesn't want to be the emperor, and why he dares to confront the court officials and not leave any room for himself."

If he didn't have a reasonable explanation and arrangement, she would consider running away with this girl.

Living in the mountains and forests is much better than losing your life in the future.

Lu Xinran pursed her lips, thinking that she had already read the Tang family's brochure, she no longer needed to put their brochure in the system to take up space, so she wanted to go to a place where Song Jun had passed by or appeared at the banquet.

Why ask? She could just take a look at his booklet herself!
