Chapter 69: Big Pie



"Auntie, the Marquis will not come tonight."

Xiao Tao carefully tried to check Fang Rou's expression, but to her surprise, there was no anger on Fang Rou's face, but rather a hint of coldness.

Men are nothing more than that.

Fang Rou sneered in her heart, but she still had to pretend in front of others.

"Sister Zhuhong's feelings for the Marquis are so touching that even I can't help but be moved. It's normal for the Marquis to go to her place."

She had heard that Zhu Hong's knees were rotten and she would have to stay in bed for at least half a month to recover. Even if Lu Jing went over, he would just sit for a while, and don't think about anything else.

I don’t know what Zhuhong wants to do by going through so much trouble?

Could it be that because she saw that Lu Jing had never doted on her, she got hot-headed and acted impulsively?

In Fang Rou's impression, Zhuhong was the calmest of the two concubines. But now it seemed that her so-called calmness was probably just an illusion.

Finally, I couldn't sit still anymore.

However, Fang Rou didn't care. Zhu Hong did this just to gain Lu Jing's pity.

What's the use of a man's pity? It's good enough to be able to look at you a few more times.

If she cried and complained about her grievances in front of him for a long time, I'm afraid he would get bored faster than anyone else - wasn't that what she did before?

Fortunately, she now sees through it. It doesn't matter if Lu Jing goes to Zhu Hong for the time being, because after these few days of hard work, she has successfully made Lu Jing relax, and she can finally go to see her son!

"Xiao Tao, I'm going out with the Marquis in a few days. You stay at the mansion and keep a close eye on her, especially the Madam. If she asks, just say that the Marquis took me out for an outing."

"Yes, ma'am!" Xiao Tao responded happily. She thought that the madam's reaction was so calm because she was hurt and became indifferent again.

I didn't expect that he had a backup plan. No wonder he was so calm and composed!

After giving the instructions, Fang Rou began to prepare.

Although Lu Jing said that everything was available at Zhuangzi and there was no need to worry, as a mother, how could she not be worried?

She prepared a lot of things early on, taking everything she saw and thought of. She always felt that Lu Ankang lacked everything and had nothing at the farm.

Until she followed Lu Jing to the farm.

"mother!"

As soon as Lu Ankang saw Fang Rou, he ran over excitedly.

And the previous second, he was riding on a servant, pretending to ride a big horse!

"Brother Kang!" Fang Rou's tears came down instantly. Seeing her son bullying the servant, she didn't feel the slightest bit of emotion in her heart. Instead, she felt fortunate.

Fortunately, Brother Kang was not bullied.

Lu Jing frowned, "Brother Kang, what were you doing just now?"

The wealthy and powerful wouldn't take pleasure in bullying their servants. If this were to get out, they'd be criticized!

He placed Lu Ankang on the farm just as a temporary measure. He was counting on him to inherit the Marquisate in the future, and he didn't want him to come here and give up on himself!

"My Lord, you're so fierce that you scared Brother Kang..." Fang Rou was a little dissatisfied. She protected her son behind her and said sadly, "There's nothing on this farm. There's not even a child of Brother Kang's age. He was just playing a game with the servants."

She smiled and squatted down, touching Kang Ge's head, "Kang Ge, don't you think so?"

Lu Ankang nodded timidly, "Yes."

He looked at Lu Jing again. Compared to his previous arrogance, he was now more timid. "Father, Brother Kang was wrong. Don't abandon me again."

The word "father" finally touched Lu Jing's heart.

"When did I say I didn't want you anymore?"

Lu Ankang made such a big mistake and caused such a big disaster. If it were Lu Yan, he would have given up on this son long ago!

But he took such a big risk to save Lu Ankang. If he didn't want him, would it be worth it?

However, Lu Jing also realized that leaving Lu Ankang alone at the manor was still a child, so he really couldn't be too serious with him. Otherwise, it would affect the relationship between them.

"If you're bored, read more books; they're interesting in their own way. Don't mess around with the servants all the time. Remember, you're only here temporarily, and you'll return to the mansion sooner or later."

The latter sentence made Fang Rou's eyes light up. She immediately took Kang Ge's hand and answered for her son: "Don't worry, Lord Marquis. Kang Ge will definitely understand your painstaking efforts!"

Lu Jing nodded and cast his gaze on the servant who was standing beside him with his head lowered. That was the person he had arranged to be by Lu Ankang's side. He would naturally report to him about what Lu Ankang had done.

"Alright, you haven't seen each other for so long, I'm sure you have a lot to talk about. I'll go see the steward first, you better hurry, we have to be back before sunset."

Fang Rou didn't expect Lu Jing to be so considerate this time. She nodded repeatedly and couldn't wait to pull her son into the house.

"Brother Kang, you've lost weight."

Fang Rou hadn't dared to show it too obviously in front of Lu Jing just now, but now, looking at her son, she couldn't stop crying.

What’s the point of having so many people serving in Zhuangzi?

There is no trace of flesh on Brother Kang's chubby white face now.

Her son really suffered!

"Mom, when can I go back?" Lu Ankang felt a little aggrieved. At first, it was fine here, as if it was no different from the Marquis' Mansion. But he was just a child, and he would miss home and his family. Over time, he began to feel uneasy.

"My father said I could go back when I grew up, but I asked them, and they said it would take a long time for me to grow up..."
