If she regarded Mrs. Lu as her future mother-in-law, she would not mind bowing her head for the rest of her life; if Mrs. Lu was not her future mother-in-law, even if her family was in poverty now, she was still a girl from a prominent family. Mrs. Lu did not like her in the first place, and no matter how harsh she was to her, it would not matter as long as she got married smoothly.

Her surname is not Lu, so Mrs. Lu has no right to decide her marriage.

As for marriage, given her background, she could not count on the elders at all and could only rely on the man himself to like her. This would lessen the conflict between her and whether Mrs. Lu liked her or not.

After thinking this through, Luo Lingyu raised her head slightly and said, "Madam, I have something to say. I admit that I was wrong for delaying my cousins' studies this time, but I don't think the fault lies with me alone. The Lu cousins ​​are all outstanding, and it's not good for them to just study. They should also relax by playing during normal times."

Mrs. Lu's face darkened: "So this is why you keep holding banquets?"

Luo Lingyu: "I have never heard that if an invitation is sent, the person invited will definitely come. I have also sent an invitation to Madam, but she has never come once. Whether she comes or not is up to you, not me."

Mrs. Lu: "Before you, I have never..."

Luo Lingyu: "Before me, the mansion often held banquets. I have never heard Madam say anything."

Mrs. Lu frowned, thinking, "How can you be the same as others? I have never seen a girl as charming as you..." But Mrs. Lu also came from a well-educated family, and she would not say such an extremely unpleasant thing.

Luo Lingyu continued: "It is good for men and women to socialize with each other, and at the same time, they can integrate what they have learned. A gentleman should broaden his horizons in the world, not be happy with things or sad with himself, and remain calm even when Mount Tai collapses in front of him. If a woman can change a man's nature... then how fragile must he have been before?"

Mrs. Lu was so angry at her sharp tongue that she gasped heavily: "...You, you...you have a lot of truths!"

Luo Lingyu raised her beautiful eyes and said softly, "Am I wrong?"

Madam Lu gritted her teeth and said, "You, you keep talking! I see that Madam Luo has learned a lot, I want to see how much truth you have."

…

Inside the tent, Luo Lingyu could be heard talking freely, her voice as clear as falling jade. Outside the tent, people were talking around Lu Chang, making a mess.

The window frame in the back hall was gently raised, and the figures of two gentlemen flashed. After sending away the servants in the courtyard, Liu Chu looked at Lu Yun who was holding the window, and his lips curled up. He walked over and heard the voice of the girl in the tent. Lu Yun and Liu Chu looked at it together, but the screen blocked their view. They could vaguely see the figure of the standing woman, who was slender and well-proportioned, but could not see her face clearly.

The two gentlemen listened attentively and heard clearly what Luo Lingyu said in the tent to refute Madam Lu.

Liu Chu was extremely surprised. Didn't they say that this girl was a poor cousin without a father or a mother? How could a poor cousin dare to challenge the mistress of the house like this?

Lu Yun lowered his head and smiled, his eyes sparkling, and he let out a click of the tongue.

In the tent, Luo Lingyu finally finished her words: "... Therefore, even if I am wrong, the fault is not entirely mine."

After a while, I could hear Mrs. Lu breathing heavily, obviously she was very angry. After a while, Mrs. Lu said, "Mrs. Luo is very eloquent. She insisted on dragging me into the tent to talk. It turns out that you are not only concerned about my face, but also your own face."

Luo Lingyu lowered her head nervously. She didn't want to resist Mrs. Lu, but she couldn't act weak. Once she was weak, she would never be able to fight back.

It is impossible for Mrs. Lu to like her. She only, only -

Suddenly, a woman outside laughed loudly: "Why are you all standing here in punishment? Where is Lingyu? Why is she not here? We have a banquet, but the host doesn't show up?"

Mrs. Lu in the tent's eyebrows jumped immediately as she recognized the woman's voice - Lu Ying.

The only daughter of Old Madam Lu, sister-in-law of Madam Lu, and great aunt of Luo Lingyu.

Lu Ying has so many identities, he is here to support Luo Lingyu.

Mrs. Lu looked at the elegant lady standing in front of her with an uncertain expression. She was about to ask Luo Lingyu if she had asked someone to invite Lu Ying, when she heard a girl's voice outside - "Aunt, Sister Luo is not the host, I am."

This is the explanation given by Wang's daughter and Lu Ying.

Mrs. Lu's eyes immediately trembled and she looked at Luo Lingyu.

Luo Lingyu bowed: "I am not the host. Madam, shall we go out and see my aunt?"

Mrs. Lu: “…”

So, in this farce, she actually misunderstood Luo Lingyu from the beginning to the end? But Luo Lingyu didn't say it outside... or did she give her face?

…

Luo Lingyu raised her head, and her forehead was sweating from nervousness. But she curled her lips, satisfied that she had resolved this conflict. When she helped Mrs. Lu out, Luo Lingyu glanced casually, and suddenly froze, looking into the smiling eyes outside the window.

The eyes flashed by, but Luo Lingyu was so shocked that her mind went blank.

She wouldn't make a mistake. With such beautiful eyes, she only knew a Lu Sanlang - Lu Yun spied on her?!

Do you care about her or laugh at her? !

The author has something to say: Sister Luo: ...He must be saying one thing and doing another, he has a crush on me!

Chapter 14

When Luo Lingyu looked more closely, she saw the shadows of the bamboos by the window, the rustling wind blowing the curtains and filling her body with coolness. Behind the blue window curtains, there was no human figure at all. It was as if the pair of peach blossom eyes she had just seen were a dream.

Luo Lingyu was confused for a moment.

When they got outside the tent, Mrs. Lu urged, "Mrs. Luo?"

Luo Lingyu responded and followed him out quickly.

In the lobby, many young men and women were talking to the pitiful little Lu Silang and Lu Chang. Among the adults, Luo Lingyu vaguely saw her sister jumping a few times inside, her little face rosy. However, Miss Luo Yunhuan was too small, so Luo Lingyu couldn't see clearly, and her eyes were on Lu Ying who was smiling at her and the first wife of the Lu family.

Lu Ying was wearing a blue-grey gown with a notched waist, long boots, and her hair was combed into a bun. Her clothes were the popular women's clothing in Jianye, which was convenient for traveling, but her makeup was a red dot between her eyebrows, and her hair was longer than her ears. Lu Ying was greeted by the young people, and then she turned around to look at Mrs. Lu and Luo Lingyu. The golden and emerald leaves in her black hair added a touch of feminine charm to her heroic appearance.
