Chapter 39 She even scolded her family
Lu Xinran arched his back and sat up in a daze.
Fall into water?
How could she have forgotten that her original body fell into the water?
She opened the melon-eating system in a daze and clicked into the one that belonged to her.
After she came here, the original copy has never been updated, nor has a completely new copy been generated.
After all, it was her own share, so she didn't need to poke in to see it.
She still remembered the plot in the book. After her original self came back, her biological mother disliked her. The elders and other people in the family also laughed at her behind her back, thinking she was a bumpkin raised in the countryside.
Even her elder brother, who seemed fair and virtuous, never even looked at her.
The original person was sad and unwilling. She was obviously the one who was reported to be suffering in the countryside by mistake. Why did everyone think that she should not show up? She was the sinner who robbed the counterfeit!
But it was clearly them who went to the countryside to bring her back.
Alienation, sarcasm and ridicule made the original person's resentment grow more and more, and when he saw Lu Xinlan sitting alone by the lake, he slipped away as if possessed.
She thought that as long as she pushed the other person down and he died, she would be able to become the real lady of the Lu family, and everything that was taken away would fall back on her.
But I didn't expect that all this was a trap set by the other party.
She was unwilling to let the other party take everything away from her, but the other party also didn't want to lose everything he had because of her.
It was just that Lu Xinlan had underestimated her original body's strength. As a country girl who grew up in the countryside and was used to doing all kinds of rough work, her strength was beyond the imagination of the ladies in the upper class.
Before she could dodge, she was knocked out by the original body. The moment she fell, she grabbed the original body's arm tightly, and the two of them fell into the lake together.
Well, I can only say that both of them have their own calculations, and neither of them is an easy target.
However, she blinked her confused big eyes and looked at the caring and gentle person in front of her.
【Why is she different from before? 】
The heroine in the book used almost every possible means to stay in Lu's mansion and in the capital.
The reason why she became entangled with the Fourth Prince was that she did not want to give up the position of the Prince's Consort which she had almost grasped.
Some of the later tragic love stories were intentional on her part, and some were just coincidences. Anyway, they were all very absurd.
Why doesn't she take the plot seriously?
Lu Xinran tilted her head and looked at Lu Xinlan: "Don't you just want to marry the Fourth Prince?"
"Didn't you say he wasn't a good man?"
"Really?"
Lu Xinran was very skilled in expressing her confusion. Did she ever say this? !
It doesn't matter. It's not a big problem.
When she was looking through the past, she rarely let her thoughts slip, so Lu Yuanheng, who was watching them, always felt that something was odd.
We were still talking about the incident of falling into the water, how did it get to the point of talking about the marriage between my eldest sister and the fourth prince?
"Xinran..."
He straightened his robe sleeves, wanting to make his first conversation with his sister seem more serious.
Lu Xinran blinked her dazed eyes and stared at him for a long time before realizing who the person in front of her was.
[Is this the mama's boy? ]
【Zhao didn't let him see me, so he just obeyed and pretended I didn't exist.】
[Why is he talking to me now? Do you think he needs to take care of his image when he is out in public?]
[Why don't you just be yourself? If you don't like me, just keep disliking me. Isn't it good for you to look down on me from the beginning to the end? I just don't want to bother with him. ]
[He can't tell right from wrong, and he has no empathy. Whoever wants this kind of brother can have him. I just despise him.]
The series of inner voices seemed to be tinged with the smell of alcohol, and were intermittent, so that people could only hear the general meaning.
Lu Yuanheng's hand, which was adjusting his collar, suddenly stopped and he looked at Lu Xinran with hurt in his eyes.
[Why did he look at me like that? Did he think I didn't understand him or that he was in a difficult situation?]
[But if I understand him, who has ever understood me? They are all busy feeling sorry for Lu Xinlan, and making all kinds of promises that she will always be the eldest daughter of the Lu family. What about me? Who am I? ]
[When the servants brought stale porridge and hairy pickled vegetables to my room, who felt sorry for me? ]
[I have never eaten this kind of food in the countryside. Why do they treat me like this?]
[You have the nerve to look hurt, thinking that I don't understand you, bah! You've read so much that it's like a dog's stomach. If your heart is biased, don't pretend to want both. It's really disgusting.]
After she finished cursing in her heart, she immediately burped happily.
[In a place like the capital, every family looks glamorous on the surface, but is actually full of filth and dirt inside. Everyone is pretending to be polite and honest. It's really ugly and boring. I still have to find a way to save money, and then find a beautiful place to be a widow.]
Lu Yuanheng's hands, which fell on his knees, were clenched tightly, and he didn't even feel the pain when his fingertips dug into the flesh.
The disgust towards her own daughter had not yet faded from Zhao's face, but her cheeks had already become stiff.
As for Lu Jinchuan Pei and Lu Kangde, facing the gazes coming from all directions, they could only grit their teeth to prevent themselves from trying to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"What's going on! When did the servants dare to bully the master?"
Lu Jinchuan's tone was cold, and his heart was filled with humiliating anger.
Pei lowered her eyes and listened to his scolding, not wanting to argue with him outside.
Lu Jinchuan only said this sentence and then calmed down. He knew that even until now, she didn't have much place in their hearts.
It's one thing to keep it in your heart, and another to let it out.
Zhou Bingshan looked at the impoverished Lu family and felt a rare sense of happiness in his heart.
It's great that we all feel embarrassed together!
Take the Lu family for example; they look glamorous on the surface, but in reality they can't even tolerate a girl.
At the top, the emperor looked at Lu Xinran, who was a little staggering due to drinking, and his grudges were somewhat relieved.
She's just a little girl. When she gets mad, she even scolds her own family members. Even if he is the emperor, well, it would be the same in her heart.
The Queen Mother and the Empress felt sorry for the drunken little girl.
However, this girl is now so drunk that she can't even sit still. If she were asked to step forward and acknowledge the empress as her stepmother, would she do something inappropriate and stupid?
What if she starts thinking about things she shouldn't... Never mind, let's wait a few days and find an opportunity to let her enter the palace.
Just as the atmosphere was getting weird, a young eunuch suddenly ran in in a panic, knelt down in front of the emperor, and said in a trembling voice.
"Your Majesty, someone is dead."
"What!"
The emperor stood up suddenly and looked quickly at the empress dowager.
It is really unlucky for something like this to happen on your birthday.
The Queen Mother's expression also changed slightly: "Do you know the identity of the deceased?"
The young eunuch nodded, and couldn't help but shrink his body again.
"Yes, she is the second young lady from Lord Zhou's house."
"Who are you talking about?"
Zhou Bingshan stood up in a panic. The second young lady in their house was the daughter of him and Fang Suxin.
The young eunuch was so scared that he nearly wet his pants. If the noblewoman of a second-rank official hadn't died, they wouldn't have come to mess with him!
