Lu Yuan's lips curled up slightly, and Su Xingyi felt quite sympathetic.
"Don't worry, it won't take long. I'll arrange for Xiaoyu to rest in the wing room early."
"Xiao Yu, let's go to the main courtyard." Lu Yuan pulled Xiao Lingyu and was about to leave.
Lu Xin's voice rang in her ears, "Elder sister, please stay."
Lu Yuan said, "It's getting late in the day. It's not too late to talk about anything over tea."
Lu Shiyuan was present at the afternoon tea, so they couldn't say anything.
Lu Jiao stepped forward and said, "Eldest sister, we sisters have an unwelcome request. We hope you can wait for a moment."
Lu Yuan looked at the sisters from the second and fourth rooms, each of whom looked troubled. Could it be what she thought?
"Xiao Yu, can we talk about our business later?"
"No problem, I'm not sleepy right now." Xiao Lingyu said as he sat down, with no intention of avoiding it at all.
Lu Yuan took a sip of tea and said, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Lu Xin thought about the whip on Lu Han's body. Her younger brother was punished for his mother. As the eldest daughter of the second wife, how could she not plead for her mother?
"Eldest sister, all the suffering you've endured these years was caused by our mother, and we feel deeply guilty..."
Lu Yuan interrupted her indifferently, "You don't need to feel guilty. The culprit is not you, but your mother. I can still distinguish right from wrong. Second and Fourth Aunts violated the laws of Beiyi Law by taking the lives of others. Now they have been sentenced by the government and received the punishment they deserve. This is justice for my mother and brother. I will not vent my anger on you. You are still my cousins, Lu Yuan."
They are all married cousins, and their relationship was not that close in the past.
My grandfather is still alive, so I have to see him during the holidays.
They all live their own lives behind closed doors. As long as they don't come to her to cause trouble, they can still maintain a nominal sisterly relationship.
Lu Yuan's words stopped Lu Xin and others from pleading for mercy.
Opening their mouths to plead would be futile, as they knew very well that their mother had committed a capital crime. If they said that they wanted to spare their mother's death penalty, they would not even be able to maintain their status as sisters in name only.
Lu Xin said: "What the elder sister said is..."
Xiao Lingyu was a little surprised when he saw them leaving one after another. Why didn't they speak up to plead for their mother?
It seems everyone knows the trade-offs.
"Xiao Yu, let's go to the main courtyard."
"good."
