Chapter 116: She fell in love with a married man, and still dreamed of a peaceful and prosperous society?
"What's wrong with you?" Lu Changqing said as usual, "Didn't I say there's no rush to get married..."
"Look!" Xu Miaoyan grabbed the clothes from Xiuqiu's hand, "Your fourth aunt cut my clothes. Go in and ask for justice for me! Ask them to compensate me with the official uniform!"
"This..." Lu Changqing glanced down at the torn clothes, "Where did they get the money to compensate you for your clothes? Why not put it on my account and I'll pay you back when I have more money."
"You are clearly biased towards them!" Xu Miaoyan pointed in the direction of the guest house, "Why do you still let those insignificant people live in Shangjing? Can't you drive them away?"
"Want to chase us away?" Fourth Aunt Lu strode out from the courtyard gate, holding her head high and saying, "Ask Chen Xuanyi if she dares! If she dares to do so, she will be expelled from the Lu Family Ancestral Hall!"
Chen Xuanyi was the maiden name of Lu's mother. When Lu Changqing heard it, his scalp tingled. He quickly held Xu Miaoyan's hand and said, "Miaoyan, stop it. Third uncle and fourth uncle and fourth aunt are elders. How can you talk to them like this?"
"Lu Changqing!" Xu Miaoyan's beautiful eyes shed tears, "It turns out you were lying to me before! Didn't you say you would do anything for me?"
"What I'm talking about is not against morality." Lu Changqing was overwhelmed, "Miao Yan, listen to me and let me explain..."
Today he heard that Fang Qianxue was going to marry the King of Beining, which was already annoying enough. Then he heard that Xu Miaoyan came to quarrel with his third uncle and the others, so he hurried over to mediate. However, his attempt to mediate failed, and Xu Miaoyan pointed at his nose and scolded him.
"What do you need to explain? Explain why you broke your promise and abandoned me?" Xu Miaoyan burst into tears. "Didn't you say you would die for me? I want you to make Lu Huai take off the clothes he stole from me!"
"Hahaha..." Before Lu Changqing could say anything, Fourth Aunt Lu burst into a devilish laugh, "Changqing, I didn't expect you would say such a thing. You can die of anything? It's so funny."
"Miao Yan, Huai'er is still a child. Why are you bothering with him?" Lu Changqing frowned.
How could Miao Yan be so ignorant? She always made things difficult for him!
"So you lied to me?" Xu Miaoyan calmed down at this time, wiped her tears, and said to the maid beside her, "Xiuqiu, let's go."
"Miaoyan, wait for me. I'm going to talk to my third uncle and the others, and then I'll go to Meihuaao to find you." Before Lu Changqing finished speaking, Xu Miaoyan had already walked away with the hydrangea.
The man was annoyed. He didn't understand what he had done wrong. He clearly loved Xu Miaoyan very much. He just didn't drive away his third uncle and fourth uncle and aunt. They were the elders of the Lu family. How could he do something that violated morality?
"Madam!" Xiuqiu quickly followed behind Xu Miaoyan and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"
Xu Miaoyan walked so fast that she couldn't catch her breath. She held onto a big tree and took a few deep breaths before she calmed down and said, "It's okay."
"That's good. You scared me to death," Xiuqiu whispered, "Madam, please don't quarrel with the Second Master. We still have to rely on him in the future."
They have no one to rely on in Shangjing City. Who else can they rely on if not Mr. Lu?
The best fate Xiuqiu could think of was to be a maid or concubine to Master Lu. Of course, Master Lu had not wanted her yet.
"Xiangqiu, come with me to Fang's house," Xu Miaoyan said, looking at the rolling clouds in the sky, "I want to talk to Fang Qianxue in person."
"Ah?" Xiuqiu opened her eyes wide in surprise. "Madam! Why did you go to find that woman? I heard that she is going to marry Prince Beining soon. Don't listen to the nonsense that Fourth Aunt Lu and that old man just said. Fang Qianxue can't remarry the Second Master! Her marriage to Prince Beining has been widely rumored, and it is a done deal."
"King of Beining?" Xu Miaoyan rolled her eyes, thinking back to the man who made her feel unattainable.
She had thought about courting the King of Beining, but the man who was second only to the emperor did not even give her a chance. She did not expect that he would actually fall in love with Fang Qianxue.
Sure enough, all her opportunities in this life were snatched away by Fang Qianxue!
She could no longer sit there and wait for death. Otherwise, even if she helped Lu Changqing become the Prime Minister, it would only be a favor to others.
"Yes, the marriage between Fang and Prince Beining is now the hottest topic in the Shangjing Teahouse!" said Xiuqiu.
"Go and arrange the carriage quickly! I'll go to Fang's house to talk to Fang Qianxue now." Xu Miaoyan pushed the hydrangea away.
In Fang Mansion.
Fang Qianxue looked at Xu Miaoyan who was sitting in the tea room waiting for her, and suddenly felt sad.
"Miss Xu, why did you come to see me today?" Fang Qianxue walked into the tea room and sat down on the chair opposite her. "I don't think we have anything to talk about."
Xu Miaoyan opened her red eyes and said, "Mrs. Lu always forces me to pay back the money, and the fourth aunt of the Lu family also bullies me, cuts up my official uniform, and steals my medicinal herbs. Today, I heard from the third uncle of the Lu family that it turns out that Mr. Lu doesn't want to marry me as his principal wife. He has always wanted to remarry you and take me as a concubine."
Fang Qianxue didn't say anything. She just lowered her head and blew away the tea mist, waiting for her to continue.
She didn't expect that Xu Miaoyan came to her to tell her about the trivial matters in the Lu Mansion.
If you think about it again, you will understand that this book about robbery and plunder originally spent a lot of space describing the "house fights" between the heroine Xu Miaoyan and the people in the Lu family.
Originally, Fang Qianxue had already died by then. Xu Miaoyan's daily routine was to fight with those monsters in the Lu Mansion. First, it was Lu Wanrou and Chen, then several relatives of the Lu family, and later there was Liansheng, the maid that Chen gave to Lu Changqing as a concubine, the prostitute that Lu Changqing bought, and the concubine that the emperor gave to Lu Changqing...
In the end, the heroine Xu Miaoyan finally took advantage of Lu Changqing's preference for her to eliminate dissidents and killed all those who were against her. She finally became the ultimate winner, but Fang Qianxue did not envy this victory at all.
She couldn't help but feel fortunate that she had left the Lu Mansion, a place of trouble, and no longer had to deal with all these chaotic things.
In Xu Miaoyan's life, what she pursued and what she got were actually her own choices. She fell in love with a married man, so how could she still dream of a peaceful and prosperous life?
Xu Miaoyan smiled bitterly and said, "I have been planning for so long, but I didn't expect to lose to you."
"Ms. Xu, are you regretting telling me all this today?" Fang Qianxue looked at her with interest.
"I just want to ask you, will you get back together with Lu Lang?" Xu Miaoyan crossed her hands and sweated. "If you want to get back together, I can make plans early. I don't have to spend my whole life in the Lu family."
"That's impossible," Fang Qianxue smiled and looked outside the door. "Don't you think my place is a thousand times better than the Lu Mansion? How desperate would it be for me to go back to that hell?"
