"Sister, what do you mean?"
Liulu already had the answer in her heart.
But unless Zhuhong said it, she would never be sure.
"Lu Ankang is her child."
A single stone stirs up a thousand waves! Liu Lu's eyes widened. Finally, her sister finally spoke out!
"How could this be? Lu Ankang's age is not much different from that of the prince. If she is Fang Rou's child, then the Marquis will be with her?"
Liu Lu didn't dare to think about it any further. As a woman herself, she knew what this meant.
But Zhuhong's face didn't show any such emotional fluctuations. She simply analyzed calmly, "If my guess is correct, the Marquis and Fang Rou had an affair before they got married. When the Madam became pregnant, Fang Rou should have also been pregnant."
Lu Ankang’s age when he entered the mansion could be faked, but how could others not tell how old he was?
"Then why didn't you bring her in earlier? Fang Rou came in just around the same time as us!" Liu Lu didn't understand. If she had given birth to the Marquis's son, wouldn't she have brought the child in?
Moreover, with Fang Rou's personality, she doesn't look like the kind of person who would hide in the dark.
"You forgot, the Marquis' Mansion has a prince..."
Zhu Hong guessed that Fang Rou was able to swallow her anger at the time because Shen Ruoyan had just married and soon became pregnant.
The legitimate daughter of the Shen family is more than qualified to marry into a noble family.
What’s more, it’s the Changning Marquis’ Mansion, a family that looks strong but is actually weak?
Lu Jing certainly didn't want to offend the Shen family. Even though he had a reputation for being a playboy, he still had to give his wife the dignity she deserved.
If the Shen family knew that he had a child before getting married, they would probably scold him directly and make him unable to hold his head up in front of the world.
How could Lu Jing, who is such a face-conscious person, allow such a situation to happen?
Therefore, the person who swallows his anger must be Fang Rou.
As for why they later took Lu Ankang back, still in the name of an adopted son...it could only be that the Marquis' Mansion was indifferent and, seeing that the Crown Prince was useless, they wanted to make the concubine's son their legal son.
When Lu Ankang brought him back, wasn't it because he wanted to raise him under the mistress's name and have the good title of a legitimate son?
Zhuhong analyzed the situation in front of Liulu, and the more Liulu listened, the more unbelievable it seemed to her. She looked at the bright and beautiful Marquis' Mansion, but none of the things they did were presentable!
When she first entered the mansion, the Marquis was handsome and of noble birth. She felt that she was extremely lucky to be able to marry him.
But later, the longer she stayed in this mansion, the more boring she felt.
The Marquis is a man who cannot stand up. All his power and prestige has been displayed in the mansion.
Outside, he is not as capable as the mistress!
Now, after hearing her sister talk about what he had done, Liu Lu couldn't help herself. "How could the Marquis do this? That's the mistress! He forced his concubine's child on her. Does he even care about the mistress?!"
How could the legitimate daughter of a noble family bear such injustice?
What would happen if the mistress knew about this?
"Everyone is pursuing profit. The Marquis is like this, and so are others. Sister, do you really think that the mistress is completely unaware of this matter?" Zhuhong shook her head. She didn't think that the mistress was someone who could be easily deceived.
Looking back now, what Lu Ankang did at that time was actually quite strange.
How could he be so unlucky as to end up offending someone he shouldn't?
Is there really no one else involved in this?
Zhuhong subconsciously placed her hands on her belly, as if this would protect the unborn baby in her belly.
She brought him into this world without permission, knowing that the road ahead would be full of thorns, but she still chose to do it.
She owed him from the beginning.
"Sister, forget about this matter."
Zhuhong pondered for a long time and only said this one sentence.
Liu Lu didn’t understand, and she was so shocked that she was still holding back some anger in her heart!
Why?
Why?
"This incident will definitely become a handle to control Fang Rou in the future. Why did you forget it? Sister, has being pregnant wiped out your ambition?"
Liu Lu had this feeling before, but after her sister became pregnant, she became much calmer.
However, the fighting spirit in my heart seemed to be gone.
Nothing matters, nothing is noticed, it’s as if they have completely forgotten the bold words they made before!
They came to the Marquis' Mansion to be the superior ones!
"Forget it, sister." Zhuhong's voice was full of fatigue. Not because of the pregnancy, but because of the exhaustion of her heart.
"I'm not obliterated, I've seen through it all." There was still light in Zhuhong's eyes, but it wasn't as bright as before.
"Everyone here seems simple, but behind them, there are countless secrets. It is extremely difficult for the two of us to survive in the Marquis' Mansion without anyone to rely on." Zhuhong looked at her sister, and the light in her eyes finally had real warmth.
"I just want you to be well."
Rather than being a superior person, she just hopes that Liu Lu can be fine.
Be well and keep living.
"Sister, are you afraid?" Liulu could feel Zhuhong's emotions, but because of this, she was even more confused about what her sister was afraid of.
"The more we know, the more dangerous it will be for us. As long as I give birth to this child, we will have a place in the Marquis' Mansion. As for the rest, we shouldn't dream about it, so let's not dream about it anymore."
Zhu Hong suddenly grabbed her hand tightly and said solemnly: "Sister, listen to me this time, don't check again!"
It is impossible that the mistress is completely unaware of this matter. She probably even knows that Lu Ankang is still on the farm!
Zhuhong's intuition told her that this was a bottomless whirlpool.
If they go around it, they still have a chance of survival.
If you rush in rashly, you will probably be dragged in. At that time, you may not be able to struggle out!
Lu Ankang is like the gunpowder buried in this mansion, and no one knows when it will explode!
It is best for them to stay away from them and not get involved in anything. It is the right thing to do to protect yourself.
Liu Lu was silent. She understood her sister's concerns, but she was reluctant to give up this opportunity.
The secret of the Marquis' Mansion is right before her eyes. She has already uncovered a hole. As long as she walks further in, she will be able to see the whole picture - does she really have to pretend to be deaf and dumb for the rest of her life?
Instead of this, I should have stayed in Qingsong Garden, like those old maids, without any thoughts or wants.
But she has already moved on and married into the Marquis's mansion, so her fate should have changed, right?
"Sister, don't worry, I understand."
Liu Lu lowered her head and agreed.
But when she turned and left, the fire hidden in her eyes completely burned!
