"You! You've really lost your mind after drinking so much!"
"You'd better take care of yourself. If you really pout, I will give you a big treat sooner or later."
The old lady's eyes widened: "You, you, you! You..."
His eyelids fluttered and then pursed again.
Several servants dared not speak: "..."
Qin Muxue glanced at her and said, "Brother Lu, you said she is old, why does she have to toss and turn instead of staying at home and enjoying her retirement?"
Lu Yunchu calmly picked up some food for her, "Maybe she's just free."
"Then I'll find something for them to do, so they don't have to waste their energy all day long."
"Xuexue is kindhearted."
"Your family is my family, and this is what I should do."
The servants lowered their heads and dared not utter a word.
The old lady has been living a life of luxury for half her life, accustomed to wealth and splendor, and used to being bossed around. Now, suddenly she has to live under someone else's roof and return to her original simple life. How can she get used to it?
How could she bear it?
However, she had to bear it even if she couldn't bear it. The Shunyang Marquis' Mansion was not a place for her to take advantage of her seniority.
Qin Muxue rolled up his sleeves and began to punish the family.
From now on, the old lady will eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures every day to recuperate. If she makes noises, it means she is strong and in good spirits, so there is no need to feed her so much.
Deduct the food.
The old lady made a fuss for two days, but found that it was of no use at all and her eyes bulged out of hunger.
Give in to hunger.
I dare not make trouble anymore.
Mrs. Lu also had a hard time. After Duke Lu retired, she wanted to contact her former colleagues, but they were all trying to curry favor with Lu Yunchu and ignored her.
hateful!
He invested all his money in a shop, but within six or seven days, he lost all his money and was even in debt.
Be honest.
They stayed in the mansion every day, chopping wood, fetching water, and cooking. In order to make a living, the concubines had to do sewing and mending and exchange their embroidery for silver.
Bow to reality.
Lu Yingying felt even more aggrieved because all her jewelry, gold and silver jewels, and various precious vases, calligraphy and painting ornaments were taken back.
She dressed simply, like a servant, while Qin Muxue ate and drank lavishly and lived a life of extravagance.
She was so mad!
She couldn't stand it anymore.
Finally, he lowered his noble head and shamelessly went to find Qin Muxue:
"Sister-in-law, I am your biological sister..."
"stop!"
Qin Muxue stopped chewing the apple, raised a hand, and interrupted her, "Don't come near me before my patience runs out, or I'll find you a marriage partner."
"..."
Lu Yingying was a little scared.
This crazy woman is outrageous and she certainly does what she says.
But she was unwilling!
She wants to find an opportunity to seduce the eldest prince. Once she marries into the royal family, her status will soar to the sky, and she won't have to care about Qin Muxue's face anymore!
But she had no money, so she couldn't buy beautiful clothes or jewelry, and she was a little worried.
When he went out, he saw Lu Yeyang coming back in a coarse cloth suit, sweating profusely, breathing heavily and wiping his sweat.
His face was covered with dust.
"elder brother!"
She walked forward quickly, "Brother, where have you been?"
Lu Yeyang was very tired. "Mother has been ill recently. I go to the dock every day to carry sandbags to earn money to buy medicine for her."
"How much silver can you earn in a day?"
"I carry a hundred bags every day, and each bag costs five copper coins."
So little?
That's all.
Although it was little, Lu Yingying still saw hope. "Brother, I have an idea. I will find a chance to seduce the eldest prince, but I still lack some decent clothes and jewelry. As long as you work hard to carry sandbags and buy me clothes every day, I will never forget you when I become successful in the future!"
Lu Yeyang thought this method was very appropriate.
Just about to nod.
etc!
wrong.
"I only earn 500 copper coins a day, and I have to work very hard. How many days will it take me to buy you clothes?"
"Brother, don't think like that. We have to think about the overall situation."
Lu Yingying said in a deep voice:
"As long as you don't eat, drink or sleep every day, and carry 500 bags for six months, you can buy me clothes!"
Lu Yeyang stared:
"Am I a mule?"
He blurted out, "Why don't you carry it?"
A bag of sand weighs 80 kilograms, and only one bag is considered enough when it is carried from the dock to the city. After several trips back and forth, his shoulders were all rubbed raw.
"I am a woman, how can I be a sandbag?"
"Then you can make embroidery and sell it."
"Oh brother, I'm going to be a prince's consort in the future. How can I do such a despicable thing? It's too embarrassing. Just work harder. I will definitely make you a high official in the future!"
Lu Yeyang scratched his hair and felt that it made some sense, but also seemed like something was not right.
"Brother, you and I are siblings, would I treat you harshly?"
"Too."
Lu Yeyang nodded:
"I was about to call it a day, but after hearing what you said, I'm going to continue carrying it."
"That's right, let's go!"
"Um!"
-
After a period of time, no matter how proud the Lu family was, they had to accept the reality of their poverty. Even though they lived in the Shunyang Marquis Mansion, they still led a very difficult life.
This day.
Qin Muxue pinched the soft flesh on her waist and frowned:
"I've gained weight."
Lu Yunchu came over: "No way? Let me measure it."
He pinched the small waist with his big hand and touched it.
"Not fat, just the same as before."
"nonsense."
It must be because I have been having too much fun recently and I have become lazy.
It seems that a life that is too smooth will make people lose their fighting spirit.
Qin Muxue threw herself into his arms and rubbed his chest, "Senior Brother Lu, I miss my parents."
Lu Yunchu smiled and said, "Then let's go back."
"When I went to bed last night, I thought about something important. This Sangnan country is far away and small. It's a novelty to stay here for a while, but it will be the same after a long time. Let's go back to Da Chu to get married, what do you think?"
"It's up to you."
"Then let's get ready to go home!"
"good."
That’s settled.
When returning to Da Chu this time, Qin Muxue personally ordered his subordinates to prepare two cars of Sangnan Kingdom's unique specialties, fruits, etc., and loaded them with all kinds of fresh things to bring to his parents.
It took three full days to prepare.
When the Lu family heard the noise, a glimmer of hope finally appeared on their haggard faces after days of suffering:
Is the female devil going back to Da Chu?
Really!
Very good!
God has eyes!
Once the female devil leaves, the emperor will be far away and Shunyang Marquis Mansion will be their world, right?
After days of suffering, the clouds finally cleared and the moon appeared!
Hahaha!
On the day Qin Muxue returned to Da Chu, all the Lu family members came out to see her off. They were so excited that the only thing missing was beating gongs, drums and playing suonas.
"Yun Chu, Mu Xue, have a safe journey."
"Have a nice trip."
"Have a nice journey!"
The old lady was grinning from ear to ear, and couldn't wait to send this female devil away so that she could eat bird's nest and shark's fin.
I was hungry for more than half a month and my mouth was dry.
Duke Lu was so excited that he almost cried.
There is always a way out.
That’s great!
Mrs. Lu was overjoyed, Lu Yingying almost screamed and held her head, and Lu Yeyang almost cried.
The family members supported each other, waved their handkerchiefs, and reluctantly saw the couple off.
Qin Muxue entered the carriage.
The Lu family hugged each other excitedly.
ah!
Good days are finally coming!
I’ve finally made it!
Hahaha!
The old lady was leaning on a cane, her chest heaving, and she almost burst into laughter with excitement.
Swish—the curtain of the car suddenly opened, and Qin Muxue glanced over coldly:
"Don't act rashly, old man. I'll go back to Da Chu to get married, and then I'll deal with you."
"..."
