Chapter 336 Feeling Sorry for Lu Lingyun
Lu Kuan was shocked by Lu Lingyun's words, but he quickly said, "Big sister, I know. I won't ask Nan Yi to have a child."
Lu Kuan's words really surprised Lu Lingyun.
Because he accepted it without hesitation.
In this era, fertility is particularly important for a woman.
A woman who cannot bear children, or who has concerns about the life of a child if she does, is extremely difficult for any husband's family to accept.
But Lu Kuan had almost no hesitation and didn't care about it at all.
Lu Lingyun looked at Lu Kuan who was very serious and said, "Okay, I will protect you as a matchmaker."
"Thank you, big sister." Lu Kuan's eyes sparkled, and he couldn't suppress his excitement.
After he was excited, he looked at Lu Lingyun who was always calm and indifferent, and seemed to think of something, "Big sister, so the reason why you haven't had your own children for so many years is because..."
Lu Lingyun snorted at him and blinked, which was considered as his tacit agreement.
Lu Kuan saw that there was no change in her eyes, and that she was still calm and composed as usual. Suddenly, he felt as if his heart was struck, and he felt extremely heartbroken.
It turned out that his elder sister had been carrying such a heavy secret and moving forward alone.
It is not easy for her to get to where she is today, to make everyone feel at ease and even proud of her!
In this era, the simplest, most effective and most solid way for a married woman to gain a foothold is to have a child of her own blood. As long as she has a child, she can gain a foothold in her husband's family and will not be easily driven away.
If you don't have children, then the only people you can rely on are your parents and brothers.
If you don't have any of these, life will be extremely difficult.
But Lu Lingyun never asked anyone for help.
For so many years, she was unable to have children, but had to manage the mansion and hold the power of the mistress. One can imagine how difficult it was.
He thought about it more carefully. Not only did Lu Lingjun not have her own children, she also didn't have her own biological mother. Their father... He knew too well what kind of person Old Man Lu was.
If his children were useless and had no achievements, he would not even look at them or remember them.
So from beginning to end, her elder sister had no one to rely on.
She has always had to rely on herself.
But she is just a woman!
She, a woman, has managed to survive on her own in this era, and she can even help him...
His elder sister...is truly amazing.
Lu Kuan looked at the calm and composed Lu Lingyun in front of him and felt that she was so strong that it made him feel distressed. He couldn't help but say, "Big sister, I have grown up. I can protect you from the wind and rain in the future."
When Lu Lingyun heard this, the corners of her mouth suddenly turned up, revealing an extremely heartwarming smile, "Kuan'er, just fly well. The higher and more stable you fly, the more your sister will naturally be protected by you."
"Yeah!" Lu Kuan nodded heavily.
After agreeing to Lu Kuan's request, Lu Lingyun wrote a letter and prepared to send it to Jiangnan.
Her grandmother passed away a few years ago. In her previous life, her grandmother passed away just before she was promoted to the capital. Perhaps her rebirth inadvertently affected many things.
She was heartbroken by the early death of her grandmother a few years ago, but now she thinks that it was like saving Tong Nanying's life.
Because according to the trend of her previous life, Tong Nanyi was going to get married several years ago, but she passed away the second year after giving birth to a child.
Tong Nanyi delayed her marriage for three years in order to observe mourning for Old Madam Lin, and this delay also delayed her own marriage.
Now that Lu Kuan is willing to marry her and has promised Lu Lingyun that he will not let her give birth to a child, this can be considered as saving Tong Nanying's life in this life.
Lu Lingyun finished writing the letter with mixed feelings, but she couldn't send the marriage letter directly.
Master Tong is in the capital!
She had to go to her second uncle's house first, discuss the matter with them, and have her second uncle deliver the marriage letter.
Lu Kuan is now a newly crowned top scholar who has won three first prizes in a row and is extremely popular. It is only natural for him to ask Tong Nanwei to marry him.
After Lu Lingyun finished writing the letter, she asked someone to send a visiting invitation to her second uncle's home first.
Early the next morning, she led people to Master Tong's mansion.
"Let me see who's here!"
As soon as Lu Lingyun's carriage arrived at Mr. Tong's house, her second aunt Wang Peirong personally led people to greet her.
"Second aunt." Lu Lingyun got off the carriage and greeted her.
Wang Peirong hurried forward to greet her, and excitedly took her hand and walked into the mansion.
Wang Peirong has had a very good relationship with Lu Lingyun in the past six years.
The Tong family had just arrived in the capital and had no roots. After all, their only blood relative was Lu Lingyun. Lu Lingyun had a good personality and temper, and treated the Tong family very well. After a few visits, Wang Peirong developed a very good relationship with her.
She thinks she is closer to her than her own daughter!
"You came at the perfect time today. Jiangnan just sent us this year's first batch of tea. You are in for a treat!"
"Okay then. I must taste it carefully." Lu Lingjun smiled and went into Wang Peirong's house with her.
After entering her courtyard, she saw that Wang Peirong's small tea table was already filled with tea sets for three people.
Lu Lingyun sent the invitation yesterday, so Wang Peirong must have prepared it in advance.
"Does Second Aunt have any guests today?"
"Yes, your cousin Nanxia is here today too!" said Wang Peirong.
At this moment, a large group of people came to Wang Peirong's yard, led by Tong Nanxia.
Six years have passed, and Tong Nanxia, who has become a married woman, has become more and more beautiful. She was originally one of the top beauties in Jiangnan. Six years ago, she was bullied by her aunt like a punching bag, and she was always delicate and charming.
But now she has become more and more aloof and distant, living a life of luxury all day long. As the lady of the Duke's Mansion, she is extremely noble and unattainable. Combined with her temperament, she makes people feel that she is a noble, fragile and cold beauty.
This is indeed the case. After Tong Nanxia got married, she became more and more cold and unwilling to talk to others. She has not given birth to any children for Duke Zhao's Mansion in all these years.
But her husband Zhao Yanshu just fell for it!
All day long, he holds her in his hands for fear of touching her, and holds her in his mouth for fear of her melting. If his mother bullies Tong Nanxia, Zhao Yanshu will be the first to disagree.
Lu Lingyun often heard Tong Nanxia scolding her second aunt's mother-in-law very annoyed.
Tong Nanxia refused to give birth, but Zhao Yanshu let her do as she pleased and got used to her. He even forbade Tong Nanxia to take the fertility medicine sent by her mother-in-law.
I was afraid that she would feel bitter and uncomfortable drinking it.
There had been a lot of commotion in Duke Zhao's mansion over the issue of offspring. In the past two years, Zhao Yanshu gradually softened his stance and, at his mother's request, took in a concubine, Fang, who gave birth to a bastard son.
He immediately registered the child under Tong Nanxia's name for the rest of his life, and never went to the concubine's room again. No one in the entire Duke's Mansion was allowed to bully her.
