Chapter 218 If you are not afraid of embarrassment, just do as you please
Zhao clenched her hands tightly, knowing that Pei was forcing her to express her opinion, but she just didn't want to bother with that dead girl!
It was Kong who laughed and broke the silence in the room.
"Mother, you also know that my husband and I have always been grateful to the second young lady. Her marriage is urgent, and we should put her first in everything. I will send the dowry list that I have prepared for Xintong and Xinling in recent years later.
"Look at the list and see what can be given to the second girl, and we'll take them all out.
"Xintong and Xinling are still young, there is still time to reorganize these things."
Zhao always felt that she seemed to be speaking to him.
Her biological mother is still sitting here. What does it mean for Kong, as her aunt, to say these things on purpose? Is she trying to embarrass her or to provoke her to spend all her family assets?
She was unhappy in her heart, but she pursed her lips tightly and refused to say a word.
She didn't want to give away all the good things she had prepared for her precious daughter to that damn girl for nothing.
Seeing her fighting like a chicken, Pei couldn't help but sigh, "Eldest Wife, that child is your biological daughter!"
It is said that mother and daughter are connected by heart, so why did she only see the hostility between this mother and daughter?
Zhao turned her head away, not wanting to admit that she was her biological daughter.
"Mom, look at what she has done in the past six months since she returned to Beijing!
"She ruined Yuanheng's marriage, stole Xinlan's husband, and now she wants to steal her dowry.
"Mom, Xinlan is the child I raised by my side. Even if you don't love her, I do!
"She has lost her status as the eldest daughter of the Lu family. I cannot let her lose even her dowry."
Thinking that her precious daughter had suddenly become an outsider, she felt uncomfortable and nervous.
Knowing that she was getting into an awkward situation again, Pei rubbed her brows in pain.
"Okay, it's up to you. If you think you and that girl Xinran don't have to be mother and daughter in this life, and you won't be able to ask for anything from her in the future, then just pretend that I didn't say what I said today.
"My trousseau is still here. I will take it all out and prepare it for the girl."
After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, indicating that Zhao could leave. She was too lazy to look at this stupid woman any longer.
Zhao felt aggrieved, "Mom, what are you talking about?
"She, we have money in our house, it's just that we need to buy a little dowry from the public funds.
"When Xintong and Xinling get married in the future, I will give them lots of makeup."
Anyway, she couldn't just use her money to buy dowry for that dead girl.
That damn girl has been acting as if she doesn't want to talk to her until now, so why should she take the initiative to approach her!
Now it's not her who needs to prepare the trousseau and get married in style.
Pei continued to wave her hands weakly. This stupid daughter-in-law was really hopeless.
"Okay, go back now. Don't worry about these things. My second son's wife and I will take care of it.
"But think about it. No matter what you do to her, with her temper, she will definitely not kneel to you when she says goodbye to her parents on her wedding day.
"If you are not afraid of losing face, then do as you please."
Zhao pulled the handkerchief tightly. Wouldn’t that damn girl say goodbye to her when she got married?
Thinking of that scene, she frowned again subconsciously. That damn girl would really do such a thing.
But, but she was really unwilling to give her money and effort like this.
Lu Xinlan stood in front of the door and listened for a long time. In the end, he did not choose to go in. He nodded slightly to Aunt Xu and left quietly.
The Zhao family has always been stubborn and prone to rebellion.
The more others persuade her about something she is unwilling to do, the more rebellious she will become and refuse to listen.
She should wait a few days until she comes out of this dilemma.
Lu Xinran returned to the room, took off his coat and fell asleep.
It was almost evening when Cuizhu finally got up from the bed with satisfaction. She brought back dinner from the kitchen. While eating, she opened Song Junyan's brochure and treated him as an electronic pickled mustard tuber.
This guy really doesn't want to be emperor?
She flipped through the booklet again with some disbelief.
"Tongzi, after my sister came here, her booklet is no longer valid, right?"
"Yes, her part was influenced by the plot of the original book, and she couldn't tell what was true and what was false."
The system thought of this outrageous bug and immediately sent a message to the main brain.
Why hasn't the main brain solved such a serious problem until now?
Lu Xinran rubbed his chin and thought for a long time before asking him uncertainly.
"So do you think Song Junyan's booklet is accurate now? He is the hero in the book, right? Now he is going to marry me, and the plot of the book has been completely messed up."
The system shook and the screen frame shook as well.
"This... wait for me to report back to the Mastermind."
It left this sentence and went to harass the main brain. Lu Xinran sighed softly, picked up the bowl of soup and put it down in disgust.
Fish soup tastes terrible when it’s cold!
The mansion given to Song Junyan had already been built. The design drawings were discussed by the Ministry of Works together with him, and it was built after repeated requests for his approval.
He moved from the palace to the prince's palace on the night of his coming-of-age ceremony, and the palace maids who had served him before also left with him.
Song Junyan sat in the study, hesitating whether to choose this place to meet Lu Xinran.
The palace covers a large area, and he can guarantee that none of her thoughts will be heard by outsiders after she enters.
He also wanted her to see their future...home as soon as possible.
This will be their residence for a long time in the future, and he hopes that not only he but also the hostess will like every tree and blade of grass here.
Thinking of this, he immediately came up with an idea and asked Ding San to find an opportunity to pick the person up the next day.
Lu Xinran did not receive any good news from the system the next morning. It replied to her listlessly in her mind.
"The mastermind said that the specific error can only be known after a careful investigation, so we should not rush."
"No rush means it will take a long time, that's what I mean."
The system hummed weakly and immediately started to work.
How embarrassing! It's a useless child, boohoo~
Lu Xinran was so annoyed by its artificial crying that her head ached. She rubbed her forehead and got up and had just finished her breakfast when she heard a servant come to tell her that someone had delivered a token at the back door of Lu's mansion, saying that she would know what it was after receiving it.
She took the jade pendant in a daze, and after thinking for a long time, she remembered that this was the one Song Junyan wore around his waist at the coming-of-age ceremony yesterday.
She had a rare epiphany and realized that it was Song Junyan who sent someone to pick her up.
She asked the maid to help her change clothes, asked Tracy to send someone to Zhaoyun Court to report, and then took them straight to the back door.
The Wei Palace was not far from the Lu Palace, only two streets away.
The carriage entered the palace through the back door and stopped outside a corner gate.
"Miss Lu Er, we're here."
So fast?
The curtain opened, and Lu Xinran stood up and jumped out of the carriage, only to find that this was not the courtyard where they met last time.
"What is this?"
"This is the Prince of Wei's mansion. The master has not returned from court yet. Before leaving, he specifically told us that you can walk around freely here and look at whatever you want."
