Mrs. Lu felt horrified when she heard all this. This country woman was even more terrifying than she had imagined. She had originally wanted to slowly take her life, but now she didn't dare to wait any longer.
"Come here, drag this bitch out and beat her to death!"
Madam Lu said coldly, with murderous intent in her eyes.
Fan Meiniang shuddered with fear. She looked at Lu Qingzhou expectantly, crouched over, and reached out to grab his trouser leg, "Fourth Brother."
Lu Qingzhou didn't want to even look at her. He lifted his foot and shook off Fan Meiniang's hand that was pulling at the hem of his pants, then moved closer to Gu Yunran.
Fan Meiniang felt very disappointed. She sat down on the ground dejectedly and started crying.
Two maids came over to pull Fan Meiniang away, but she threw them away fiercely, saying, "I can't die."
Madam Lu didn't listen at all. She waved her hand with a cold face and said, "Take him away."
This bitch is dying and still won't stop.
Fan Meiniang leaned over to Lu Qingzhou's side, hugged his ankles, and cried, "Fourth brother, I've been with you for so many years. I'd even risk my life for you. Are you so heartless to me?"
She cried bitterly, then suddenly stood up, hugged Lu Qingzhou, and whispered in his ear, "Fourth brother, if you still remember our old feelings, please forgive me this time, and I will definitely change."
"If you're unjust..." She sniffed, "Don't blame me for telling Gu Yunran what happened back then. What dirty things did you do to get close to her?"
"Shut up." Lu Qingzhou gritted his teeth.
The two people spoke so quietly that no one else could hear them. Madam Lu frowned, "What are you whispering about?"
She scolded the old woman again: "Hurry up and pull her away."
Just as the two maids were about to step forward, Lu Qingzhou spoke up, "Mother, please spare Mei Niang one more time."
Madam Lu widened her eyes: "She is a disaster."
"Mother!" Lu Qingzhou was anxious. "When I was little, I was almost beaten to death by horse thieves. It was Mei Niang who sacrificed herself to save my life. Otherwise, your son would have been gone long ago."
"We in the Lu family cannot be ungrateful."
Old Madam Lu had a sullen face and said nothing. She knew about this matter. At that time, Qingzhou was only ten years old. They went to the mountains to play and encountered horse thieves. It was Fan Meiniang who risked her life to save her.
At that time, Qingzhou said that he would not marry anyone else but her.
Gu Yunran glanced at Lu Qingzhou, then glanced at Fan Meiniang. She also started to persuade him, "Mother-in-law, the Fourth Master is right. Since Concubine Fan saved the Fourth Master, if you execute her, won't the Lu family be despised by others?"
Fan Meiniang looked at Gu Yunran in surprise. She didn't expect her to speak up for her.
Madam Lu rubbed her brows in pain and said, "Forget it. I'll let you go this time."
If we can't execute him openly, then...
She winked at Madam Zhao, who whispered, "I understand."
Fan Meiniang breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Yunran walked up to her and gave her a cold look, which made Fan Meiniang feel uneasy and she turned and left.
"lady."
Back at Fang Xingyuan, Taohua couldn't help but ask, "Why did you plead for Fan Meiniang?"
Gu Yunran asked all the second-class maids in the room to leave, and asked Zhuye to close the door. Then she said, "I vaguely heard her and Lu Qingzhou talking about what happened back then..."
Zhuye asked curiously, "What's the matter?"
Gu Yunran shook her head. "I didn't hear it clearly, but I guess it has something to do with the injury I got while hunting in Lujia Village. It was Second Uncle Lu who saved me when I was injured, but Second Uncle Lu said that it was Lu Qingzhou who first found me, and it was he who went back and called him to save me."
"But the young lady didn't know him at that time."
Unable to figure it out, Gu Yunran gave up thinking about it, "I'll let Fan Mei Niang tell it herself."
"I'm tired."
"Ma'am, please take a rest."
Taohua frowned, not knowing what she was thinking, and Zhuye helped Gu Yunran rest.
Fan Meiniang was thrown into the backyard, and Old Madam Lu sent a maid to take care of her. She was only allowed to have two meals a day. Old Madam Lu said that as long as she didn't starve to death, it was fine, and Lu Qingzhou had no objection.
The Lu Mansion is much quieter.
Time passed quickly, and three months passed in a flash. On this day, the Mu family sent an invitation.
"Madam, Imperial Physician Mu's birthday is in three days." Zhuye handed the invitation to Gu Yunran.
Gu Yunran was staring blankly at the invitation. The invitation to Imperial Physician Mu's birthday had been delivered, and it would be inappropriate for her not to go, but she really didn't want to see Mu Qianchen.
"Fourth sister-in-law."
Lu Jiajia ran in like a gust of wind. Today she was wearing a goose yellow silk dress and had her hair tied in a hanging bun. She looked much more well-behaved.
It seems that the teaching nanny has put in a lot of effort these days, and Lu Jiajia finally behaves like a young lady.
Gu Yunran put down the note and asked, "What do you want from me?"
Lu Jiajia put her arm around her and said, "Fourth sister-in-law, I heard that Doctor Mu's birthday is in three days. Did you receive the invitation?"
"yes."
Lu Jiajia looked envious and said, "Fourth sister-in-law, please take me there."
Gu Yunran: "What are you going to do at Old Master Mu's birthday party?"
"I..." Her face turned red.
At this time, Madam Lu came over with the support of Nanny Zhao. She said on behalf of Lu Jiajia, "She didn't like the third young master of the Zheng family who I asked you to introduce to her last time."
Gu Yunran snorted coldly, "Mother-in-law, what you said may make your daughter proud, but it's obvious that the Third Young Master doesn't like the Fifth Young Master. Everyone heard it clearly."
Madam Lu choked and scolded coldly, "Yun Ran, can't you speak more nicely?"
"I'm telling the truth."
Lu Jiajia looked at Madam Lu and pouted, urging: "Mother, please tell me what's important."
