The second girl then raised her head and looked at Gu Yunran, then suddenly lowered her head again. She didn't know if Gu Yunran was testing her.
She shook her head: "No."
Gu Yunran sighed: "In fact, I am also a pitiful person. My husband doesn't love me, and my mother-in-law doesn't like me. My life in the Lu family is not easy."
"If you want revenge, I can help you."
"Three years ago, I came to Lujia Village to hunt. It was your father who saved me. This is my way of repaying your family's kindness."
"I've been married to Lu Qingzhou for three years. I've been living in the Lu Mansion for a while now. I'm sure your sister has told you everything in her letter."
The second girl shook her head: "Sister, don't dare to talk about Madam without permission."
Gu Yunran laughed: "I've become a laughing stock in the Lu Mansion, but I don't care anymore. In fact, I know exactly what the servants say about me behind my back."
The second girl lowered her head and said, "Sister, I just feel sorry for Madam."
"I understand." Gu Yunran stood up, bent down, and reached out to help the second girl up: "So, I want to help you get revenge, and I am also helping myself."
The second girl smiled bitterly: "Madam, I am stupid and I am worried that I will hinder you."
Gu Yunran smiled. She was not stupid. When she showed her fangs, her bite was very powerful.
"Come back to Lu Mansion with me first, I will arrange your identity..." Gu Yunran whispered in the second girl's ear.
Finally, he asked, "Are you willing?"
The second girl pursed her lips and nodded solemnly: "Madam, I do."
After saying that, her face suddenly turned red.
Three days later.
Gu Yunran came to Madam Lu and handed her a list.
"Yun Ran, what do you mean by this?" Madam Lu was confused as she held the list. "It's not any lady's birthday now, why are you giving me a list?"
Old Madam Lu put the roster on the table. She had been troubled by a lot of things recently, and Gu Yunran was bothering her again.
Gu Yunran pointed at the book and said, "Mother-in-law, these are the names of the concubines I have chosen for the Fourth Master. Please take a look."
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lu perked up. She picked up the list again and began to look through it carefully.
"Yun Ran, this is..."
She saw that the names on the list were all unfamiliar, but many of the girls had decent family backgrounds, more than enough to be concubines for his Qingzhou.
Gu Yunran: "I know that the Fourth Master wants to marry Miss Fan as his concubine, but Miss Fan's status is really not up to par. Being a concubine is fine, but being a concubine would make the Lu family laugh."
"So, I thought about it and found some girls from Shengjing with decent family backgrounds and let my mother-in-law choose."
"Of course Fan Mei Niang will be taken as a concubine too, so let's choose the same day to make it more lively."
Mrs. Lu looked at the list and felt even happier. She looked up at Gu Yunran and said, "Yunran, you are so thoughtful."
Mrs. Lu rarely smiled.
"It's all for the Lu family, it's what I should do."
Madam Lu carefully looked over the list and was a little undecided for a moment. She thought any one would be fine. She asked tentatively, "Yun Ran, I think all the girls on this list are good. Would you like to marry them all?"
Gu Yunran frowned. Madam Lu was really greedy.
She said, "If this gets out, won't people laugh at us?"
"Besides, it's not like the Fourth Master has such good conditions that the girl is eager to marry him."
Old Madam Lu curled her lips. What was wrong with her son? He was handsome and talented. He could even marry a princess.
It just let Gu Yunran take advantage.
Madam Lu was undecided, and Gu Yunran couldn't wait any longer. She yawned and said, "Mother-in-law, take your time to choose. I'm a little sleepy, so I'll go back first."
With that, she stood up and walked away.
Seeing Gu Yunran coming out, Zhuye hurried over. She supported Gu Yunran and asked, "Madam, have you made your choice?"
"I'm dazzled by the sight. I haven't chosen yet."
Zhuye was a little worried: "Will she choose Qiuju?"
Qiuju is the name that Gu Yunran gave to the second daughter of the Lu family.
Gu Yunran patted Zhuye's hand: "Don't worry, she will choose."
Having dealt with her for two lifetimes, Gu Yunran knows best what Madam Lu wants.
Gu Yunran walked away from Baomo Hall. Under an old locust tree in the yard, Fan Meiniang came out. She twisted the handkerchief in her hand, and her face became a little distorted because of anger.
She brought the bird's nest porridge and wanted to please the old lady, but she didn't expect that as soon as she reached the door, she heard what Gu Yunran and Old Lady Lu were saying.
Only she can be Fourth Brother’s concubine, no other woman can do that.
Fan Meiniang went back with the bird's nest porridge and started sobbing in the wing room. Lu Qingzhou was turned down by Gu Yunran, so he came to the west wing room angrily.
As soon as I entered the yard, I heard Fan Meiniang crying.
He was distressed and anxious: "Mei Niang, what's wrong with you?"
Fan Meiniang wiped her tears with a handkerchief and shook her head: "It's okay, I'm just so happy. I can finally become your wife. All the suffering I went through for you before is worth it."
As Fan Meiniang spoke, she lay in Lu Qingzhou's arms. Lu Qingzhou looked down and saw the wound on her chest, which was less than an inch away from her heart.
Three years ago, he passed the imperial examination and returned to the village to celebrate. The whole village came out to welcome him, but Lu Erniu was jealous of him and shot an arrow at him.
If Mei Niang had not sacrificed herself to block the sword for him, he would have died.
"Back then, you promised me that we would be together forever, and I really took it seriously." Fan Meiniang started crying as she spoke. "Fourth brother, you know how I feel about you. I'm just stingy and can't stand you having other women."
