Chapter 96 Madam Lu didn’t get angry
Almost everyone is here now. Even the people from the main and second rooms together form several tables.
She and Lu Jiangnian walked in together, attracting many people to look over. For a moment, they became the focus.
Lu Jiangnian looked calm and let go of her hand, as if holding hands with his wife in public was just a normal thing.
Yuan Wanru knew that the ancients were reserved, and no matter how intimate a couple was, it was only in the boudoir. Once they left the room, they had to be careful to behave themselves.
Even holding hands is a rare act.
Since Lu Jiangnian was calm and composed, she also greeted the elders openly.
As a legal couple, holding hands is nothing to be shy about.
As long as they weren't embarrassed, it wasn't a big deal.
"Father is finally back. Mother was always worried that he wouldn't have enough to eat in the North Camp. Now that I see that he looks so good, mother can finally rest assured."
Lu Song looked at her with a smile: "Your mother praised you to me for a long time today, saying that you are considerate. Now it seems that you and Jiang Nian are a perfect match."
Although he was praising Yuan Wanru, his eyes were looking at Lu Jiangnian with a mocking look in them.
The brat, who looked unwilling at first, threatened that after the marriage, the Lu family would not owe the Yuan family anything, and he and his mother would not interfere with any of his decisions in the future.
Now what?
How tightly the little hands are holding.
Of course Lu Jiangnian noticed his mocking look.
He was too lazy to bother with his father.
Madam Lu snorted coldly: "What do you mean by right? In my opinion, it's totally wrong."
"Do you know how many troubles the Yuan family has caused during this period of time?"
She looked at Yuan Wanru with her narrow eyes and said harshly, "When I lived in the mansion before, I was silent and looked as docile as a little sheep."
"Ever since getting married, he has been arrogant and domineering. He quarrels in my Rongshou Hall and Wangchun Hall. He relies on having read two books and brings up a lot of great principles."
"Da Lang, she is looking at your mother and mocking me because I haven't read much."
As she spoke, she wiped away the non-existent tears from her eyes and said sadly, "Even the mutton-fat jade bracelet you gave me as a gift was taken away by her. Tell me, what's good about her?"
Zhou Fang was also very angry. She didn't dare to complain on her own, but since Madam Lu had taken the lead, she could add fuel to the fire.
"That's right. My eldest brother is not at home. I don't know that the old lady was so angry with Wanru that she became ill a while ago."
"She has the nerve to ask for that mutton-fat jade bracelet, and my sister-in-law still dotes on her."
"Over the years, I thought she was a good person, but I didn't expect that she would change her face once we got married."
"Don't you think that you can stand up straight and have the confidence just because you have the title of the Crown Prince's wife, so you dare to plot against even your elders?"
Lu Song and Lu Bai are both filial sons, but Lu Song is always calm and not an impulsive person. After hearing so many words, he just pondered and did not say anything.
Lu Bai couldn't help it, he stood up immediately and wanted to blame Yuan Wanru, but when he met Lu Jiangnian's dark eyes, his momentum was immediately diminished.
Lu Jiangnian studied with his grandfather since he was young. He was very intelligent and always received praise.
On the other hand, although Lu Bai was determined to take the imperial examinations, he failed repeatedly and was often called by his father to be taught a lesson.
My eldest nephew was standing nearby, watching the whole process.
Anyway, from that time on, Lu Bai felt that he could no longer act like an elder in front of his eldest nephew.
Later, after the eldest nephew went to the battlefield, he made many military achievements, his momentum became more and more powerful, and his official position became higher and higher. Lu Bai could no longer act like an elder in front of Lu Jiangnian.
Fortunately, the eldest nephew was sensible. Whenever he got good things, he always remembered to honor his second uncle, and he did not look down on his uncle just because his official position was higher than his own.
However, when Lu Bai faced Lu Jiangnian, he always lacked confidence.
Therefore, the question that was about to come out of his mouth turned into: "Mom, you are too serious. Jiang Nian is not the kind of person who doesn't know what's going on. If it's really my niece's wife who did something wrong, he will definitely not ignore it."
Lu Song glanced at his brother indifferently and smiled secretly in his heart. This was indeed the result.
He stepped forward to smooth things over: "If there is anything, we can talk about it tomorrow. For many years, Jiang Nian and I have not been able to spend a reunion at home during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Let's not talk about other things today, just to celebrate the festival happily."
"Mom, it has not been easy for you these years. I have seen it all."
"Today, my son specially bought a pair of gold bracelets for you to make you happy."
As he spoke, he took out a pair of pure gold bracelets from his arms. They were shining brightly and looked very heavy.
Faced with such good stuff, Mrs. Lu immediately smiled.
Although mutton-fat jade bracelets are nice, people of her age still love gold the most.
Even when her son is away, he is always thinking about her as his mother. What could be more gratifying than this?
She immediately put Yuan Wanru's matter behind her: "You are still filial."
Lu Bai gave her a pure gold necklace: "Mom, don't be partial. I'm still here."
"Although this necklace is not as valuable as your brother's red gold bracelet, my son's intention is no less than yours."
Old Madam Lu smiled even more happily.
"You are so sweet-talking. I don't know you. Your salary is not much, why spend this money? Your filial piety has never been on these things. Mother knows it."
Her two sons made her laugh so hard that she couldn't stop. She had completely forgotten about the mutton-fat jade bracelet.
Lu Bai sat down and let out a long sigh.
No wonder the eldest brother bought a gold necklace and insisted that he give it along as a gift. It turned out that he had already guessed this would happen.
Fortunately, he didn't just join in the fun.
Thinking of this, he glared at Zhou Fang and said, "In the future, don't say anything about Wanru. She's not your daughter-in-law. My sister-in-law didn't say anything. Why should you make a fuss?"
He really hopes that the world will not be in chaos.
The sister-in-law is not such a foolish person. Can she really let Wanru disobey the elders?
He was just happy and drank two glasses of wine with his elder brother and almost passed out.
Zhou Fang glared at him angrily: "Why, you couldn't say anything about your precious nephew before, and now you can't even say anything about his wife, right?"
"Why are you so useless!"
"He's obviously an uncle, but he lives like a grandson, and he's not ashamed of it!"
Lu Bai's face turned red because of what she said.
What does she understand, what does she know?
When he faced Jiang Nian, the feeling was not that of nephew and uncle at all, but that of a good student and a poor student.
"Nonsense, why do you care about them? Jiang Xun is not young anymore, you should worry about his business. You are making trouble all day long instead of doing your job."
Doesn’t he know Zhou Fang’s personality?
He compares this and that all day long, and he especially can't stand his elder sister-in-law. He also doesn't allow Jiang Nian to be better than Jiang Xun.
She doesn't even realize that her elder brother is many times better than him, and that her elder brother's son is better than her son. Isn't that reasonable?
If he was as narrow-minded as she was, he would have been better off hanging himself.
After all, for many years, he had been criticized by his own father in front of his nephew, saying that he was worthless. Did he have no reason to live?
Yuan Wanru sat next to Wang Min. She thought there would be more verbal battle today, but she didn't expect that the storm would disappear without a trace.
Lu Jiangnian whispered, "Grandma can't get angry when Dad is around, just eat your meal in peace."
