"The old lady suddenly sent someone to invite her. She didn't say what the matter was, but just asked her to be there."
Chun Xi talked as she walked. She originally wanted to ask the people on the old lady's side, but this time they kept their mouths shut and she didn't get anything out of them.
Shen Ruoyan thought thoughtfully, “Maybe the Marquis has gone to the ground?”
During this period, she was too busy to find out about Lu Jing's situation.
The only thing I remember is that his wounds healed better than I expected.
But then again, if you have good food and drink every day, no worries, and are in a good mood, how can you not recover well?
"The doctor said yesterday that he can walk now. But he needs to be careful with his movements, not too big."
"I see."
A smile slowly appeared on Shen Ruoyan's face. She thought that she probably knew why the old lady was looking for her.
Sure enough, when Shen Ruoyan went over, Lu Jing was sitting on the chair.
The maid was putting a cushion on him. If you didn't know, you would think that his injury was on his butt.
"Ruoyan is here, come and sit down!"
Mrs. Lu smiled pleasantly, but in Shen Ruoyan's eyes, she was just a weasel paying a New Year's visit to a chicken, with no good intentions.
Even Lu Jing, who was standing next to him, smiled very gently, even with a hint of doting...
Shen Ruoyan bowed to him, then avoided him without leaving a trace.
That sticky sight gave people goose bumps.
"Grandma, it's so late, why are you asking your granddaughter-in-law to come over? Is there something important?" Shen Ruoyan had a smile on her lips, but her face was not gentle, and she didn't look like someone who was easy to talk to.
"Even the Marquis is here. Could something have happened?"
Lu Jing's face was a little embarrassed. He subconsciously looked at Madam Lu, "Grandma, you should speak first."
Madam Lu was just about to speak, but Lu Jing's words made the words that were on the tip of her tongue get stuck in her throat again, making her feel very suffocated.
This loser!
Shen Ruoyan is his wife after all, so what can't she say? It's enough for this old woman to be the villain every time!
But the grandson is her own, and that is Lu Jing's personality. The old lady is speechless and there is nothing she can do.
So, he changed the subject and decided to be more gentle. "Ruoyan, it's like this. There's news from the farm saying that Kang Ge is not feeling well and needs to be brought back to the manor to recuperate. As you know, the place is remote and the conditions are poor. He's been through a lot at such a young age."
The smile on Shen Ruoyan's face froze, and the corners of her mouth slowly flattened, "Grandma, are you planning to bring Lu Ankang back?"
She looked at Lu Jing again, "Does the Marquis also mean this?"
Madam Lu smiled and tried to smooth things over. "It's not that we want to bring him back, but Brother Kang must be brought back now. Otherwise, he might lose his life!"
This was the excuse agreed upon by Madam Lu and Lu Jing. If they suddenly wanted to bring Lu Ankang back for no reason, Shen Ruoyan would definitely not agree.
If a fight breaks out, it will be bad for both sides.
But if Lu Ankang had a reason to take him back, especially something that involved his safety - after all, he was Lu Jing's biological son, Shen Ruoyan couldn't let Lu Jing watch him die!
Lu Jing also said, "The people at the farm didn't take good care of him. Kang Ge was already weak, so he got sick. Even if he gets better in the future, he'll probably have to take medicine all year round."
This was also said to lower Shen Ruoyan's vigilance.
Lu Ankang is in good health, so she will definitely be very cautious. After all, Lu Yan is now in the limelight, and Shen Ruoyan certainly won't want other young masters in the Marquis' Mansion to affect his status.
If Lu Ankang was weaker, it would make her relax a little.
"If Brother Kang is really unwell, then we can send a doctor to take care of him." Shen Ruoyan's face was calm, and no emotion could be seen. "It's not that I don't want him to come back, but the previous incident at Prince Shun's mansion has always been a hidden danger."
Shen Ruoyan said: "I am also thinking about the Marquis' Mansion."
Madam Lu and Lu Jing had already expected that Shen Ruoyan would definitely bring up this matter before she came over!
So, they had already made preparations.
"You don't have to worry about that." Lu Jing patted his chest and assured, "The emperor values me very much now. Even for the emperor's sake, Prince Shun will not be as petty as he was before with the Marquis' Mansion."
"Besides, it's been so long since the incident happened. Perhaps Prince Shun has already forgotten about it." Old Lady Lu said.
Shen Ruoyan still refused to give in. "But this matter is both big and small. The Marquis is very popular now. If someone with ulterior motives knew about it, I'm afraid they would make a big fuss about it."
"This..." Lu Jing was stunned, and began to hesitate in his heart.
Indeed, what Shen Ruoyan said makes sense. If he is unlucky and is caught by someone, he will probably be pursued!
Mrs. Lu saw that he was retreating and wanted to hit him with her cane. She suppressed her anger and said to Shen Ruoyan with a smile: "Don't worry, when the time comes, we will tell others that he is a child of a distant relative. Brother Kang has changed a lot in recent days, and even we can hardly recognize him."
She comforted Shen Ruoyan and said comfortingly: “Just bring him back to recuperate, ordinary people can’t see him, and nothing will go wrong.”
After hearing this, Shen Ruoyan did not respond immediately, but suddenly asked: "So, Grandmother and the Marquis have already visited Brother Kang? Otherwise, how would they know that he has changed from before?"
You will grasp the key points...
Madam Lu was stuck for a moment, and Lu Jing couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Fortunately, the old man's brain was still a little faster than his. After a long while, Mrs. Lu said, "The doctor said he was not feeling well, so I went to see him."
At this point, Madam Lu sighed deeply, "You haven't seen it, the chubby boy before has become as thin as a bamboo pole now!"
I think you have some misunderstanding about bamboo poles!
Although Shen Ruoyan had never visited Lu Ankang, her subordinates would report Lu Ankang's situation to her.
He was the only master on the farm, and Fang Rou would find opportunities to go and help him from time to time. Not to mention that he was really short of food and clothing, Fang Rou was afraid that her son would be wronged there, so she never stopped providing him with delicious food and fish!
That treatment has nothing to do with suffering!
"Really?" Shen Ruoyan didn't expose it, but now that things have come to this, if she insists any further, she's afraid they'll end up falling out.
The Lu family is still useful now, so there is no need to lose the big picture for such a small matter.
"It's not impossible to bring Brother Kang back." Shen Ruoyan was silent for a while before speaking softly.
Seeing her give in, Madam Lu also breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked, "So you agree?"
Shen Ruoyan shook her head, "But I also have a request. If you can agree, then I have no objection to taking Brother Kang back home."
