"Third brother, send them both back to their rooms and arrange for someone to guard them. We'll make the final decision tomorrow."
"yes!"
Lu Shiyuan walked up to Chen Ji and looked down at him.
"You bastard, it was this right hand that hurt my Yao'er, right?"
Chen Ji saw that the situation was hopeless and he was being trampled on the ground, so he had no choice but to beg for mercy!
"Master, I am only following orders. I hope you will spare my life!"
"Humph! You still dare to quibble!"
Lu Shiyuan was so angry that he stepped on the back of his right hand and crushed it repeatedly!
“Hmm—”
Ling Xiao covered Chen Ji's mouth in time, and he could only make a low moan.
After a moment, Lu Shiyuan withdrew his foot.
"Cripple his right hand for me!"
"Second Master, save me!...Ah——"
After a brief and rapid cry of pain, Chen Ji fainted.
Lu Shiyuan watched Chen Ji being dragged away like a dog by Ling Xiao and others, and his anger subsided a lot.
How dare he hurt his precious granddaughter? He's so bold!
"Grandfather, let's help you back to your room to rest."
Lu Shiyuan felt bad looking at the two brothers.
If today's incident gets out, the marriage of these two people will be even more difficult.
"Let's go see your sister Yao'er first."
The doctor at the villa was examining Lu Yao with a serious expression.
When Lu Shiyuan and his two grandchildren came in and saw this, they frowned unconsciously.
Seeing the doctor from the villa withdraw his hand, Lu Shiyuan hurriedly asked, "How is it? How is my granddaughter? When will she wake up? Is there any blood clot in her brain? Will her old illness relapse?"
"Don't worry, old man. The young lady is fine," the villa doctor said. "She has some swelling at the back of her head. She'll wake up naturally once the blood clot dissipates. As for whether her old illness will recur, we'll have to wait until she wakes up to find out."
Lu Shiyuan's heart sank, thinking that Yao'er's madness might relapse.
"Okay, I understand. Come and take a look at my granddaughter when she wakes up."
The doctor of the villa responded and left the room.
Chen: "Dad, don't worry. Yao'er's old illness has relapsed. Madam Su will help her. It's getting late. Your daughter-in-law will take you back to your room to rest."
Lu Shiyuan looked at Lu Yao worriedly for a few times and whispered in her ear, "Yao'er, grandpa has gone back. He will come to see you tomorrow morning."
"You two should go back and rest, and don't disturb Yao'er."
"It's Grandfather."
After Lu Hangan said a few words to Nuanyu, he took Lu Hankun out of the room.
Not long after Lu Shiyuan returned to his room, Lu Zexu entered the room.
"father!"
"Tell me, why did you come back so suddenly?"
Lu Zexu told Lu Shiyuan about their experience.
Lu Shiyuan frowned, "Do you know who arranged this behind the scenes? To let you come back and watch the show?"
Lu Zexu said: "Although the staff of the main house and the Si family guards did not explicitly say it, it should be Yao'er."
"Why do you think it's Yao'er?"
Lu Zexu pondered for a moment, "Just now in the pavilion, Yao'er spoke with such vigor and courage. She showed no fear in front of so many people, leaving my second and fourth brothers speechless. She seems to have grown up."
Lu Shiyuan recalled how Lu Yao hid behind him and said she was scared.
He was not mistaken, Yaoer was really scared.
Later, when Yaoer said those words, it seemed that there was a shadow of her eldest son.
If that’s the case…
Thinking of this, Lu Shiyuan smiled, "Third Brother, you are right, Yao'er has really grown up."
Lu Zexu smiled and nodded, "Yao'er has grown up, so can I find her a boyfriend?"
"No! Yao'er is still young. She should stay at home for a few more years. Our Lu family can afford to support her. If we really want to arrange a marriage, it will be the son-in-law who will come to the door. I am also worried that Yao'er will be abused by her in-laws. What if her madness relapses?"
Lu Zexu really didn't expect this. "Dad, you're right. It's getting late. I'll help you lie down."
Lu Zexu coaxed Lu Shiyuan to sleep and left the room quietly.
"Zexu, come here quickly, I'll bandage your wound."
Only then did Lu Zexu realize that his right hand was in some pain. Not only that, the skin was broken and bleeding.
It can be seen how hard he hit.
After tidying up, the couple lay down.
"Zexu, what do you think our father will do with our second and fourth brothers this time?"
Lu Zexu closed his eyes and said weakly, "What else can we do? We've been forced to this point. When we return from Shili Langyao, the second and fourth branches will be separated... If it weren't for what happened tonight, our father wouldn't have easily mentioned splitting up the family for the sake of our adopted son Kun'er. Now it just happens that they agree."
Chen sighed and said, "It's all the yellow and white stuff that caused the trouble."
"They are wrong. They are too greedy and covet things that do not belong to them."
Wei Xiao, dressed in black, slipped into Chen Ji's study and carefully searched the bookshelf.
After half an incense stick of time, Wei Xiao did not find any useful clues.
Wei Xiao found nothing and was about to turn around and leave when he saw a small half bag of gold and jade tops placed next to the pen holder on the desk.
Thinking back to what the waiter at Heyuan Teahouse said today, it turns out that Chen Ji was really seeking personal gain for himself.
His eldest daughter and son-in-law were reluctant to drink it, but he dared to drink it secretly!
Wei Xiao hurried over and reached out to take the golden jade top. His steps were so hasty that he bumped into the desk, forcing it to move.
With a creaking sound, the bookshelves on the left side seemed to move slowly left and right.
Soon, the door of a dark room suddenly appeared in Wei Xiao's sight.
Wei Xiao was surprised for a moment before entering the secret room and lighting the oil lamp on the wall with a tinder.
Seeing the situation in the dark room, Wei Xiao's eyes widened in shock.
There are not only golden and silver items, but also priceless items stolen from the Lu family!
