Chapter 3 Let Lu Jiangnian clarify
Her voice was soft, but the words she said were enough to make people furious.
Lu Jiangnian's eyes darkened, the cold corners of his eyes slightly raised, and he gritted his teeth and uttered a few words: "Yuan Wanru."
"I'm here."
She looked at him calmly, her jade-like face close at hand.
He lowered his face even lower, his lips brushed against her ear, and said with a hint of anger and viciousness: "Threatening me?"
She shook her head gently, her calm eyes falling on his jade-like face, and the fine hair on her temples brushed against his skin, bringing a slight itch.
"Brother Lu, you misunderstood. I am just stating the facts. Rumors are not good for you or me, right?"
His breath sprayed on her ears, and Yuan Wanru realized that they were standing too close.
She was a little uncomfortable with it and wanted to step back, but was afraid of losing her momentum.
Lu Jiangnian lowered his eyes, and the girl's snow-white and smooth neck was clearly visible. The whiteness shone in the sunlight, which was a little dazzling.
The two of them were at loggerheads, sparks flying.
But they didn't know how close they seemed to others at that moment.
The man was tall and the woman was petite and slender. They were so close that Yuan Wanru felt as if she was held in Lu Jiangnian's arms.
Just now, when Lu Jiangnian leaned over Yuan Wanru, from the perspective of Lu Yun and Lu Miao, they only felt that he kissed her temples, which immediately made the two unmarried girls blush.
Is it really appropriate for them to stay here?
Brother, have you forgotten that there are other people here?
The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and it was very quiet all around.
A gust of wind blew by, and the fragrance of flowers drifted everywhere, with a subtle and peaceful aroma.
The two of them stood under the crabapple tree, and a few fallen leaves fluttered and landed on them.
Lu Jiangnian looked at her calmly for a long while before he stood up and casually brushed away the dead leaves that had fallen on his body. His every move was unrestrained yet elegant, which showed his nobility as a child of an aristocratic family.
He turned to look at the dumbfounded Lu Yun and Lu Miao: "Rumors stop at the wise. You are not young anymore. Can't you tell what is true and what is false?"
Lu Yun's face turned red with shame.
“Brother…”
"Although my marriage to her was hasty, the engagement is real. I'll use my brain more in the future."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Only when she could no longer see his figure did Yuan Wanru relax her tense back.
Don't underestimate her calmness. Lu Jiangnian has fought on the battlefield for many years. Although he is young, he has a murderous and cold nature that ordinary people don't have. When he shows his edge, it is really not easy to confront him.
Lu Yun looked ashamed, but admitted her mistake straightforwardly.
"Sister Yuan, I'm sorry. It's all my fault for listening to what others said."
Big brother himself admitted it.
Just now, Big Brother and Sister Yuan looked like a pair of loving young boys and girls, so she didn't have any doubts at all.
Lu Miao said softly, "Sister Yuan also knows her temper. She believes everything she hears."
"You just rely on Sister Yuan's good temper."
Lu Yun is the illegitimate daughter of the first wife, and Lu Miao is the illegitimate daughter of the second wife. Both of them are about fourteen or fifteen years old, of similar age, and they have a good relationship with the original owner.
"Since you've apologized sincerely, I reluctantly forgive you."

After parting with Lu Yun and Lu Miao, Yuan Wanru soon arrived at the main courtyard where Wang Min lived, Wangchun Hall.
The courtyard of the Mansion of Marquis Zhongyong is divided into the middle road, the east road and the west road. The Momei Pavilion is on the west road, and the Wangchun Hall is located in the middle of the middle road.
The closer we got to Wangchun Hall, the more we noticed that the servants were walking hurriedly and were extremely busy.
The wedding date set by Lu Song was too tight, and Wang Min was so busy that she only slept for two hours each day in the past two days. She really wished she had the ability to clone herself.
Yuan Wanru looked at the festive setting and didn't feel like she was getting married at all.
Wang Min finally found time to meet her, mainly to hear her talk about the wedding dress in person: "If it doesn't fit, tell me quickly, don't be embarrassed."
"A woman only gets married once in her life, and it means a lot. Although time is tight, Auntie Min will definitely make the wedding a grand one."
Yuan Wanru's heart softened when she saw that she was so busy that blisters appeared on the corners of her mouth.
She had guessed it long ago. Wang Min had been too busy these days and must not have noticed the rumors.
She didn't want to cause any more trouble for Wang Min, so she threatened Lu Jiangnian to clarify the rumors.
In the book, Wang Min was extremely kind to her from beginning to end.
"The wedding dress fits me very well and is very beautiful. I like it very much."
"This is the chrysanthemum cake I specially asked someone to make. It is refreshing and sweet without being greasy. Please try it."
Wang Min hadn't had a good lunch, so she was a little hungry.
She ate one and found it delicious. Before she knew it, she had finished a small plate of six cakes.
"Good boy, Auntie Min knows you are considerate."
She held Yuan Wanru's hand and carefully reminded her, "I have already prepared your dowry and have had it counted and carried to the house on Baima Street."
"You can stay there tonight and wait for Jiang Nian to marry you tomorrow. Everything will go smoothly. Don't worry."
"Jiang Nian has a bad temper, but he's not unreasonable. Don't worry, with Aunt Min and Uncle Lu here, he won't dare bully you."
There were a lot of things he wanted to say, but there were too many people looking for Wang Min. In just a short while, several managers were standing outside, waiting for his reply and to arrange things.
Yuan Wanru did not stay long. She left Wangchun Hall and went straight back to Momei Pavilion.
She lived in the Lu family, but she could not marry out of the Lu family.
Wang Min arranged for her to stay in the Lu family's private residence on Baima Street tonight, and gave her the title deed and land deed of the house as a betrothal gift.
And her wedding dress was destroyed tonight.
She wanted to see who was causing trouble.
-
After a busy day, Aunt Pang rushed back from Baima Street and said, "Miss, everything has been arranged over there. It's getting late. Let's go over there."
Nanny Pang was busy making arrangements and asked them to take daily necessities and not to bring unnecessary items. They were just going to stay away for one night and the girl would be back home the next morning, so there was no need to go through the trouble.
"Well, Liuyan, bring your wedding dress."
After exiting the second door, a luxurious carriage came into view.
The carriage had a tall frame and was made of fine hardwood. The canopy was hung with colorful silks. The four corners of the carriage were inlaid with sparkling gems, and there was an exquisite lantern with the word "Lu" written on it.
However, the first thing Yuan Wanru saw was not the car, but the person waiting by the car on horseback.
Yuan Wanru didn't expect that she would see Lu Jiangnian again today.
Aunt Pang whispered joyfully in my ears: "The eldest lady asked the eldest master to take you to Baima Street."
The man heard the noise and looked down from above. He was as tall as a mountain on horseback, with an imposing manner like a rainbow. Just a glance at him made people feel the overwhelming pressure.
I think this man must be even more terrifying on the battlefield.
Nanny Pang walked over with a smile and saluted him. He nodded slightly, then lowered his head and patted the horse's neck.
As if receiving some kind of signal, the black horse was breathing heavily from its nose and paddling the ground with its hooves, as if it couldn't wait to set off.
The silent urging made Nanny Pang more nervous, and she quickly helped Yuan Wanru get into the carriage.
Yuan Wanru secretly complained in her heart that this man had a cold and hard temper, and she didn't know what the heroine liked about him.
