Fang Rou secretly left the house.
It wasn't considered secret, after all, it had the tacit approval of Mrs. Lu.
Zhuangzi was too far away from the city. Although she missed her son very much every day, she did not always have the chance to come over.
So this time, Fang Rou also brought a lot of bags. Except for what the old lady asked her to take, she took almost everything she could take out, for fear that Lu Ankang would be missing this or that.
The most common items are pens, ink, paper and inkstone.
Doesn’t Lu Yan like to show off?
She wanted Shen Ruoyan to know that even if others praised this mute to the sky, he could not compare to her brother Kang!
"mother!"
After receiving the news that Fang Rou was coming, Lu Ankang was already waiting at the door of the manor.
Fang Rou hadn't even stood still when he rushed over to her, his eyes red and tears streaming, "Mom, you finally came to see me! I thought you didn't want me anymore!"
When he was first placed on the farm, Lu Ankang still had a sense of pride in his heart.
His mother said that he was the only heir to the Marquis' Mansion, and he would be the Marquis in the future!
He is just staying here temporarily now, he will return to the Marquis' Mansion sooner or later!
But although Zhuangzi was far from Shengjing City, he was not completely oblivious to what was happening outside. These servants served him, and their masters were thousands of miles away. He was just a child, so who would still serve him properly after a long time?
Daily neglect is common, but what Lu Ankang fears most is their gossip!
"Have you heard? They say our concubine is pregnant. If she can bear a son, then there will be hope in this life!"
"If you ask me, it's still the Red Concubine who's the most powerful. Have you seen the one who often comes to the manor? She's quite good-looking, but the other two concubines aren't bad either. When the Marquis has other sons, this one..."
Lu Ankang's identity is no secret in this village.
Lu Jing had put a lot of thought into finding someone to take care of him.
However, the most difficult thing to calculate in this world is the human heart.
It wasn't that these servants were disloyal, but they were beginning to lament their master's future. They had no future on the farm anyway, so there was no taboo in talking about this.
Lu Ankang heard it several times.
Fang Rou brought Lu Ankang back to the room. As soon as she closed the door, he stopped her and said, "Father is going to have another son soon, right?"
There were tears in his eyes, which made Fang Rou's heart ache.
She forced a smile, "How could that be? Our Kang Ge will always be the Marquis's favorite child."
The favorite child is not the only child.
Lu Ankang is older now and is not so easy to fool anymore.
"My mother is a concubine, and that concubine Hong is also a concubine, so the son she gave birth to can inherit the Marquisate, just like me, right?"
wrong!
Neither of you is qualified to inherit the Marquisate!
If Lu Yan wasn't a mute, no illegitimate son born to a concubine would ever be able to climb to that position in his lifetime!
However, Fang Rou couldn't say such words, nor did she want to say them.
Who made Lu Yan a mute?
"Don't be afraid, Kangge. She is your aunt, but I, your mother, will not always be your aunt." Fang Rou held her son's hand tightly, as if to comfort him, but also as if to convince herself, "For you, mother will definitely clear all obstacles."
Waiting for you to come back home!
Lu Ankang was still very nervous. The usually arrogant boy seemed to be afraid of being abandoned at this moment. He regarded Fang Rou as a life-saving straw and held on to her tightly.
"Mom, is the prince very knowledgeable? I heard that he is better than the students of the Imperial Academy!" This is what Lu Ankang is most worried about. If he can't even beat a mute, will his father still love him the most?
Will Lu Yan become his favorite person?
Fang Rou shook her head, her emotions even calmer than before. "Don't worry, he's just temporarily out of the spotlight. It won't affect anything. Brother Kang, you have to remember that Lu Yan is mute and will never be able to speak in his life."
So what if you come from a noble family?
This is Lu Yan’s fate!
"You don't have to compete with a mute. No matter how well he studies, he will never be able to pass the imperial examinations in his lifetime! As for Concubine Hong, don't worry, mother will find a way."
She held the child in her arms distressedly and patted him gently, "Mom won't let anyone hurt you!"
Lu Ankang nodded vigorously, tears falling on Fang Rou's body, wetting her shoulders.
The mother and son hugged each other and cried bitterly, venting all their grievances and anxieties. When Fang Rou left, her eyes were swollen like walnuts, and standing next to Lu Ankang, it was hard to ignore them.
The servants looked at each other, pretending not to know anything.
They still have this awareness.
"Mom, I miss you every day. You must find a way to let me go back quickly..." Lu Ankang pulled Fang Rou reluctantly, not wanting to let her go.
He knew in his heart that the only one who treated him well now was his mother.
Fang Rou patted his hand and said, "Don't worry, your father will be back soon. I will definitely find a way to get you back to the Marquis' Mansion as soon as possible!"
What happened before happened so long ago, and even if we want to hide it, what is the difference between hiding it on the farm and hiding it in the mansion?
As long as no one finds out, Brother Kang can hide in the Marquis' Mansion!
After returning, Fang Rou did not tell the old lady about this.
Now Zhuhong is pregnant, and the old lady's position is unclear and she is unreliable.
The only person she can count on is Lu Jing!
Fang Rou looked forward to it day and night, and kept asking when Lu Jing would be able to arrive in Shengjing.
Those who don’t know would think that she misses the Marquis.
But only Xiaotao, who served her personally, knew that Aunt Fang's heart was not in this at all.
However, as long as her master wanted to climb up, she didn't care why.
When necessary, what she should do is to give her master a push from behind.
Unlike Fang Rou's urgency, Shen Ruoyan still did what he had to do, without any trace of longing or anxiety on his face.
But she took great pains in another matter.
"Have those supplements been delivered?"
A few days ago, the Shen family sent people to deliver a lot of things to the capital. Shen Ruoyan selected some and gave them to Madam Lu, and then gave some to the concubines.
Not only that, he also specially ordered someone to send the best supplements inside to Zhu Hong -
"Madam, Aunt Hong accepted it and said that she will never forget Madam's kindness."
If Shen Ruoyan hadn't sent so many people to protect her closely that day, Zhu Hong would have had no way of escaping unscathed.
Not to mention waiting for Lu Jing to come back, she would lose her child that day!
"She is sensible and knows what to do." Shen Ruoyan said with a smile.
Isn’t Lu Jing coming soon?
This wonderful show specially prepared for him is about to begin!
