Chapter 50: A Bad Father Gives Birth to a Bad Son

Pei's words seemed to give Lu Jinchuan two options, but in reality he could only choose one.

A woman may not care about what others think, but he can't.

How could he, the Minister of Justice, allow himself to be laughed at by others!

Isn't it that Pei Shi is taking advantage of this point and trying to use it to force him? !

He turned around and chased into the yard. Regardless of the shocked looks of the housekeepers and servants, he just gritted his teeth and said something with a sullen face.

"You must do this, don't you?"

"Do you really not understand, or are you pretending not to understand?"

Pei turned around calmly and withdrew her gaze from the boxes of dowry.

"If what I just said wasn't clear enough, and you insist that I break it down for everyone to hear, then I'll oblige you.

"Your happiness for all people is based on my constant sacrifice, and I am no longer willing to serve you.

"Or, we should clean up the mansion and let those who shouldn't have any influence sit in their rooms, put on makeup and think clearly about who they are.

"Or, I'll leave. Whatever you want to do in this mansion, whoever you want to feel sorry for, it has nothing to do with me.

"Anyway, from today on, no one can hate me anymore, not even you."

Lu Jinchuan was so angry that he covered his chest. He really couldn't understand why his dignified and generous wife suddenly went crazy.

Aunt Wang and Aunt Jin fell to the ground. Although they still held their handkerchiefs in their hands, they had forgotten to cry.

How come...it became like this?

They just wanted the old man to vent their anger for them, so that the lady wouldn't make a fuss over nothing and make their lives uneasy.

Do you really think they are willing to be concubines?

It's because of their status that they can't become the legal wife.

When they thought about it this way, the grievances in their hearts came out and their tears kept flowing.

The dowry was still being carried out in boxes, and Pei had already asked people to prepare the carriage.

Lu Jinchuan looked at the mess inside and outside the house, and his frustration reached its peak.

“That’s enough!”

He roared, and Aunt Wang and Aunt Jin, who were lying on the ground, dared not move and held their breath at the same time.

Pei, on the other hand, rolled her eyes at him with disgust and said, "Why are you trying to show off to me? Ever since I entered the Lu family, all my food and daily necessities have been paid for from my dowry. My two sons and one daughter also rely on my support.

"Do you think I'm one of your two toys? I have to look at your face for everything I eat and use, and I'm trying to please you in every way I can."

She turned around and ordered the servants to carry her dowry, and also asked Madam Xu to put away the things that were decorated in her room.

"It's not that I feel bad about it, but I'm afraid that someone will get it for free. I feel sick when I think about my used things falling into the hands of someone else."

She called them "things" one by one and trampled the two concubines into the mud with disgust.

Lu Jinchuan was extremely angry but calmed down. He looked at the dowry that Pei had carried away.

"Are you serious?"

He didn't believe that Mr. Pei really dared to leave the Lu family regardless. After all, something like that had just happened in the Dingkang Hou Mansion, and he still had to rely on his help.

After returning to the courtyard and waiting for a long time without seeing Lu Xinlan come to look for him, Lu Xinran realized that the matter in Zhaoyun Courtyard must not be over yet.

She didn't expect that the two concubines were so important in Lu Jinchuan's heart. After walking around the yard twice, she sneaked back to the outside of Zhaoyun Courtyard.

She didn't know why Lu Jinchuan lost his temper with her and told her to get out, but she was a man of few words and would wait until the excitement was over before taking revenge.

So she went back to the tree where she had hidden before, listened to the movements in the yard, and quickly opened the booklet.

[The old scumbag still refuses to give in. Does he think his grandmother is putting on a show to force him? ]

[Where does he get the confidence to think that his grandmother cares about this face? Does he really think that the title of Shangshu's wife sounds respectable?]

[If the news of her granddaughter being fed rotten rice by servants got out, she would become a laughing stock in the capital. Her dignity would be gone long ago.]

[She has an unreal title, and her aunt can bully her. Who cares about this? Who is like him, with a donkey kicking his head? ]

[Move away, move away, let's fight for our lives, after all the difficulties, there will always be a way out, as long as we take this step, we will have a brand new life! 】

The people who heard their inner voices again: "..."

This idiom and poem are not used like this!

Pei smiled with relief. She had gritted her teeth and persevered for most of her life. Now looking back, she felt that she was quite stupid.

Reputation is important, but life is more important.

She was already half buried in the ground, why should she continue to be trapped in this dirty pit?

Even if Lu Jinchuan agreed to pack up all the servants in the mansion, she also wanted to leave the house and live a peaceful life.

"Mother!"

Lu Kangde and Lu Kangping, who were called back urgently, were stunned when they saw the boxes of dowry when they entered the house.

If they remembered correctly or heard correctly, today they had to deal with a few servants in the kitchen.

How did it come to this?

"Mother, what are you doing? You are making a fuss over nothing. If you don't care about father, don't you care about me and my second brother?"

When Lu Kangde came to his senses, he stepped forward to reprimand, and did not forget to call Madam Xu to take people to put the dowry back into the warehouse.

Pei took a step back and looked up at him. This was the child she had raised. He was so well-behaved and adorable back then. When did he become so unfamiliar?

In your eyes and heart, there is only him and his career, and nothing else?

"For your own sake? As a son, when have you ever thought about me as a mother? Knowing that I am not living a happy life, have you ever done anything for me?"

"You are already the wife of a minister, and you have an imperial decree. I don't know how many people envy you. What else can mother not be satisfied with?"

His words chilled Pei's heart completely, and she laughed sarcastically.

"Yes, the top beam is not straight and the bottom beam is crooked. It's my fault for not teaching you well."

[What does it have to do with you? This is obviously a bad thing. Like dragons, like phoenixes, like rats, their sons can dig holes. A bad father gave birth to a bad son, and the son is even worse than his father. This can only mean that the ancestors of the Lu family were not very good. ]

[They are all scumbags who only care about their own pleasure and don't consider the feelings of their wives and daughters at all. How can they have the face and confidence to ask others to pay for them? ]

[You have to build your career on your own, why should you let others think about you? ]

[Your mother has already told you that she is not happy in this mansion. How about your filial piety? Are you eating the dog's stomach or stuffing it into your aunt's stomach?]

[You have the nerve to ask others to think about you. What kind of rubbish family members are these? I feel so dishonest when I think about the fact that this person is my biological father! ]

Lu Xinran became angrier and angrier as she spoke, completely unaware that the father and son in the yard, who had instantly stiffened, had turned their heads to look at her.

[Move quickly, let's not go to the manor or the villa, let's go to Jiangnan. The scenery in Jiangnan in October is so beautiful. Let's go boating on the lake, climb high and see the distant view. Why should we stay in this shabby place and listen to the disgusting whimpering of the stupid aunt? ]

[And let those two scumbags think we got a huge advantage. ]
