Chapter 170 Falling in love with him at first sight
As soon as Yuan Wanru got off the carriage, she heard a sarcastic remark.
"I haven't seen you for a few years. You have become more delicate."
"How do the people serving you do their job? They have no sense of propriety at all. Jiang Nian, are you allowing them to be so disrespectful?"
The voice was not familiar, so she turned around and saw Liang Yusong standing not far from their carriage. Beside her stood a young woman and an unmarried girl.
She had never seen the girl, so the young woman was naturally Lu Wei.
Just like the person in the original owner's memory, Lu Wei was dressed in a lilac-colored dress, with an elegant posture, but an unusually cold expression.
Lu Wei thought that Yuan Wanru would panic and apologize, but unexpectedly, she smiled brightly: "It turned out to be my sister."
She stood up calmly and looked at Lu Wei with a smile: "Sister, you misunderstood. How dare I neglect the people around me?"
"It's because my husband loves me. When we ride in the carriage together, he never allows others to serve me."
"Speaking of which, this is my blessing and my husband's thoughtfulness."
The temperature in Lu Wei's eyes suddenly turned cold.
"It's true that they are newlyweds. I didn't know that Jiang Nian could be so meticulous."
"It's just that Jiang Nian is a man who does big things, so it's better for him to avoid doing such trivial things."
"Since you are his wife, you should persuade her more. If other people see it, wouldn't it damage Jiang Nian's reputation?"
Yuan Wanru was not angry, but smiled even more happily. She said delicately, "Sister, what you said is wrong."
Lu Wei's eyes narrowed, and she felt a surge of anger in her chest. This shallow and ignorant woman actually dared to refute her and say that she was wrong!
"Wrong?"
"I'd like to hear your opinion. If it's wrong, don't blame me for teaching these lazy maids a lesson for you."
She stretched out her white fingers, which were not stained by water, and touched Aunt Pang, Liu Yan and Liu Zhi.
Liang Yusong secretly sighed and said it was a pity. She was afraid that with Yuan Wanru's sharp tongue, Lu Wei would have no way to deal with her.
Sure enough, Yuan Wanru was calm and composed: "Wanru dare not trouble sister to discipline my men for me."
"My sister said that a husband's love for his wife is detrimental to his reputation and that his vision is too narrow."
"During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, Su Wu was sent by Emperor Wu as an envoy to the Xiongnu. He was detained for 19 years, but he remained true to his original aspirations and refused to betray the court and submit to the enemy."
The Dajing Dynasty was a fictional dynasty, but the historical trajectory before the Anshi Rebellion was the same as the historical background that Yuan Wanru was familiar with. The story of Su Wu herding sheep was also mentioned here.
"I remember that Su Wu wrote a poem called 'Farewell to My Wife' before he left on his mission, in which he said, 'We have been married since childhood, and our love for each other is unquestionable.'"
"Su Wu's love for his wife has been passed down to this day, and this is in no way inconsistent with his heroic spirit of patriotism and loyalty. The Book of Han praised Su Wu for 'willing to sacrifice his life for the sake of benevolence, rather than seeking to live at the expense of benevolence'."
“So, a man who is considerate to his wife does not lose any dignity.”
"Sister, do you think Wanru is right?"
Lu Wei's face, which had originally had a faint smile on it, had completely turned cold.
"I didn't know you were so eloquent. I underestimated you in the past."
Yuan Wanru was even happier: "Thank you for the compliment, sister."
The anger in Lu Wei's eyes was like substance, shooting towards Yuan Wanru, but it had no effect. The woman opposite was still smiling brightly, and her pair of watery black eyes on her pretty face were curved into crescents.
She clenched the handkerchief in her hand and looked at Lu Jiangnian with murderous intent: "Jiangnian, my sister-in-law is really impressive. Have you ever experienced her eloquence in the past?"
"I finally went home, but she choked me and I couldn't refute her."
Lu Jiangnian seemed not to understand the hidden meaning of her words. He looked at Yuan Wanru lovingly and said, "Sister, you haven't been back for a long time. It's not surprising that you don't understand your wife's character."
"I like to listen to her talk. Every time she speaks, she has something to say and it is refreshing. After staying with me for a while, I will understand."
"However, I advise you not to discuss allusions with her, otherwise, I'm afraid you will suffer."
Lu Wei didn't expect that her brother was so devoted to Yuan Wanru, and his words were full of indulgence.
My mother is like this, and Jiang Nian is also like this. What's good about this woman?
She is her mother's biological daughter and Jiang Nian's biological sister. They should all stand on her side. It shouldn't be like this.
The more Lu Wei thought about it, the more unwilling she felt.
"Haha, sister, I'll listen to you. Don't argue with her in the future. I don't like arguing with others. Women should be demure and gentle. I'm afraid it's not good for my sister-in-law to be like this."
Lu Jiangnian's eyes became sharp.
“I think she’s good in every way.”
"But we are husband and wife, my wife, and you don't need to care about what others think."
His wife had said before that she and her sister had a bad relationship, but he didn’t take it too seriously.
Now it seems that my wife was not worrying too much.
As soon as they met, the two of them clashed back and forth several times. He really didn't understand why his sister was targeting his wife?
"Okay, let's talk inside. We also brought a gift for my sister from Nanjiang County."
Lu Wei responded uninterestedly: "Thank you very much, you are thoughtful."
Liang Yusong knew this would be the result. Lu Jiangnian's heart was already firmly in Yuan Wanru's grasp. For now, if she wanted to make Lu Jiangnian fall in love with her as she had originally planned, she could only do so by poisoning him.
The mind-bewitching Gu is almost ready, and she must take advantage of the time she is still living in the Lu family to infect Lu Song and Lu Jiangnian, father and son.
Otherwise, it will definitely affect the plans of my aunt and cousin.
Lu Jiangnian brought Yuan Wanru into the Marquis' Mansion. Lu Wei said in a muffled voice, "Let's go in too."
Liang Yusong nodded: "Okay."
She whispered to Lu Wei: "Sister, don't be angry with her. You just came back not long ago and you don't know many things yet. She has a sharp tongue. The old lady and the second lady were both sickened by her. We can't compare to her."
Lu Wei looked at her in surprise: "She is so powerful?"
During this period, she was concentrating on taking care of her body and had not heard about these things.
The main reason is that Yuan Wanru was not such a person before, and she was not good at speaking.
I never thought that after not seeing you for a few years, you seemed like a different person.
In the past, she didn't like Yuan Wanru's dullness, but now that Yuan Wanru has become smart, she still doesn't like her, and in fact, she hates her more than before.
As they walked and talked, the two of them didn't notice the shy face of Lu Wei's sister-in-law Liu Jun.
Liu Jun's heart was pounding. It turned out that his sister-in-law's younger brother was so handsome.
He has sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, is a graceful gentleman, gentle as jade, and speaks softly to his wife. Isn't this the husband she has always dreamed of?
Why, he got married?
Thinking of this, she felt a strong pain in her heart.
When she was in Anzhou, she always looked down on the men there. This time she followed her eldest sister-in-law to the capital because it was her mother's idea to ask her eldest sister-in-law to help her find a marriage.
She had not taken this matter to heart at first, but now, she really had found someone she fell in love with at first sight, but they were not destined to be together!
Oh my God, what should she do?
