It was a restless night.
The morning light is dim.
General's Mansion.
"Be careful... Are you sure everything is ready?... Be careful not to bump into anything..."
Early in the morning, Qin Muxue instructed the servants to load three large carriages with gifts.
Mother Qin took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead. She smiled and said, "Everyone said to let the servants do it, but you insisted on watching it yourself. You haven't even gotten married yet, but you've already turned your elbow outward."
"Oh my, mother!"
Qin Muxue stamped her feet, unable to act coyly like a little girl, and said in a rough voice:
"Although Senior Brother Lu is an orphan, I have never looked down on his family background. Even when it comes to worshipping his mother, I will prepare carefully."
"When you die, I will visit your grave and will not treat you unfairly."
Mother Qin almost swallowed her breath, "Ahem!"
The two servants who were checking the carriage almost fell off.
From childhood to adulthood, the young lady has never been kind in her words...
Say whatever you want.
Never stop until your words shock people.
"However, Senior Brother Lu's home seems to be very far away. It is really inconvenient to go back and forth. I will bury you and dad closer in the future. If I miss you, I can dig you out and visit you at any time."
Mother Qin stepped aside: "......?!"
The servants' mouths dropped open.
Miss!
Miss!
Rich lady!
Stop talking!
Madam is not even forty years old this year!
Mother Qin silently wiped away her bitter tears.
She had two children in her life. Her son Qin Muyu was fair, gentle, and refined. He had been the ninth prince's companion since childhood. He was both scholarly and skilled in wielding swords and spears.
As for her daughter Qin Muxue...
She looks just like a female tyrant.
The brother and sister seem to be born with the wrong gender, a stark contrast.
Since she was a child, no one could control her mouth.
Before she even had a grandson, she was already thinking about where to bury her...
unreliable.
It's really unreliable.
It seems that she can only rely on Qin Muyu to fulfill her wish of living out the rest of her life in peace, enjoying family happiness, and having children and grandchildren around her.
"Xue'er, if you go to Mr. Lu's house, you can't speak and act as casually as you would at home. You must be careful about what you say and do."
Mother Qin held her daughter's hand worriedly and warned her sadly,
"Please, please keep your mouth shut... No, don't talk!"
She said solemnly:
"Just let Mr. Lu speak for whatever others ask."
She was really worried about her.
They haven't even gotten married yet. What if she says something wrong and offends the Lu family? If that causes a bad reputation, wouldn't that ruin her reputation?
Qin Muxue said, "Mom, don't worry, I won't say anything nonsense."
"Don't talk!"
"I'm not a child. I know what to say and what not to say..."
"Promise, mother!"
"..."
Qin Muxue choked for a moment, "Okay, okay, I promise you, I won't say anything. With Senior Brother Lu here, he can take care of everything for me. Are you relieved now?"
Only after Qin's mother repeated it seriously did she feel a little relieved.
Not long after, Lu Yunchu came to pick her up.
The two got on the carriage, "Mom, let's go."
"Aunt, I will take good care of Xuexue, don't worry."
Mother Qin stood on the steps and waved her hand, "Go ahead, and be careful on the road."
The carriage had just gone half a block when Chong Feng came over:
"Miss Qin, have you seen my mistress?"
Qin Muxue opened the curtain, "What do you mean? After lunch yesterday, she left with the Regent. Could it be that Ali is not in the Regent's Palace?"
Chong Feng understood instantly and smiled calmly:
"Nothing, the mistress is busy. I thought she came to look for you, so I asked this question. Have a safe journey with Master Lu."
Send the carriage away.
Chong Feng sighed secretly.
It's already night, where is the mistress?
The master is about to cry.
"Miss Qin accompanied Mr. Lu back to her husband's home, and she brought three carriages full of gifts? Who said that military generals have no money? The general's mansion is simply spending money like water!" Jingying leaned over and looked around curiously.
Chong Feng glanced at him coldly:
"I can't find my mistress, and my master is very generous in punishing people."
“…I’ll go find it right away.”
-
Sangnan country.
The Lu family - a family of loyal ministers of the Sangnan Kingdom, was conferred the title of the third-class duke. It is a well-known large family with not only a successful business but also a large population.
There were an old lady, a mistress, two concubines and four children in the family.
Life was going well, but suddenly news came that the eldest son who had been dead for many years was coming back.
After this incident, how could Mrs. Lu sit still?
"The eldest son is coming back?!"
She was not Duke Lu's legal wife, but his second wife.
Many years ago, after his wife, Ms. He, gave birth to their eldest son, she resorted to some means to kill both mother and son. However, she never expected that after so many years, the eldest son would be able to come back to life.
"Mother-in-law, what should I do?"
Mrs. Lu hurried to find the old lady.
She was the old lady's distant cousin, and the old lady also helped a lot when He was killed.
The old lady calmly rebuked:
"Why are you panicking? It's been more than 20 years, and he's coming back. His identity is in doubt, and I still don't recognize him!"
"Mother-in-law, he must have made all the necessary preparations to come back. If he came back to seize the family property, wouldn't my Ye Yang become a second son born out of wedlock? Would he have no chance to inherit the title?"
The old lady frowned:
"Don't panic!"
"Now, he is alone, but our Lu family has survived in Sangnan Country for so many years. How can he defeat me?"
"If he dares to come back, I have plenty of ways to kill him!"
It's a long journey.
About twenty days later, Qin Muxue and Lu Yunchu finally entered Sangnan Country and came to a magnificent house in the capital:
Lu Mansion.
She couldn't help but be surprised.
Isn't Senior Brother Lu an orphan? How come he has such a big mansion? Although it is far inferior to the general's mansion.
The carriage stopped and the servant reported. Soon, the sound of footsteps and the jingling of jewelry were heard, and someone came out.
Huh!
So many people!
Qin Muxue got off the carriage. Before she could say anything, she saw the old lady with a headband and a crutch raised her voice and asked:
"What kind of informer dares to come to my Lu family to ask for money?"
Her beautiful eyes widened.
How do you talk?
Doesn’t an informer mean a beggar?
How dare you use this word to slander Senior Brother Lu?
This old lady looks kind and peaceful, but I didn't expect her to be so disrespectful!
She opened her mouth to curse back, but suddenly remembered her mother's warning before she left, and had to hold back her words.
Madam Lu chuckled and looked at the visitor with a critical look:
"Are you the child that He gave birth to? After so many years, how can you prove yourself?"
Aunt Zhang flattered:
"Madam, I heard that when He gave birth, the child had a birthmark between his legs. Why don't you ask him to take off his pants now so that we can verify his identity?"
Qin Muxue's eyes turned fierce. She wanted to open her mouth, but then she remembered her mother's repeated warnings.
Lu Yunchu looked at this group of strangers and said coldly:
"I came here this time just to move my mother's grave. As for the Lu family's money and fame, I don't want a penny."
Madam Lu sneered.
She didn't move the grave earlier or later, but chose to move it when her son Lu Yeyang was about to inherit the title. It was obvious that she was after the Lu family's title!
"It's really unfortunate. Back then, He committed adultery and died a dirty, dishonorable death. The master has already ordered that her body be thrown to the dogs."
I*!
Qin Muxue was so angry that he was spinning around in place like a monkey scratching its ears and cheeks.
