Chapter 360: Isn’t she worthy?

Lu Lingyun called a group of people to gather around and drink their wine one by one. After a while of silence, Aunt Zhang, who was in charge today, came over.

"Miss, you have worked so hard." Aunt Zhang said to Lu Lingyun with a smile on her face.

Aunt Zhang was the most favored concubine in the mansion. Since Lady Liu claimed to be ill and did not want to attend his banquet, she was the one who presided over the banquet for the female guests.

However, most of the people who came onto the field were heading for Lu Lingyun.

He either toasted her or chatted with her, doing most of Aunt Zhang's work.

Aunt Zhang looked at her with gratitude. After all, she was just a little aunt of humble origin. She was a girl from an ordinary family before getting married. She had never seen such a scene or interacted with the families of so many dignitaries.

If you show any timidity or handle the situation inappropriately, you will bring shame to the entire Lu family!

"What are you talking about, Aunt? Today is my brother's wedding day, so I can share in his good fortune by serving him a few glasses of wedding wine." Lu Lingyun said with a smile.

When Aunt Zhang heard what Lu Lingyun said, she was delighted inside and out. She raised a glass of wine to toast Lu Lingyun.

This young lady not only married well, but also spoke nicely.

He never puts on airs with an aunt like her and even speaks politely.

It’s really hard not to like it!

At this time, a voice sounded behind them, "Madam Zhang, please respect the eldest sister. I am also Lu Kuan's elder sister. Why don't you respect me, Madam Zhang?"

Following the sound, they saw a woman of about fourteen or twenty-five years old holding a boy of about six or seven years old standing in front of them.

The woman's clothes were not fancy. Only the two lapels were made of silk fabric, and the rest was made of twill.

Although not rich, at least the dress was relatively new. In the backyard filled with silks and satins, the dress was barely acceptable and not too shabby.

The person who came was Lu Hanyi who had not been seen for a long time.

Lu Lingjun took a look at Lu Hanyi's outfit, blinked her eyes slightly, and still kept smiling. She knew in her heart that she had not had a good life in recent years.

The Li family was not a wealthy family, and they had many people to support.

The old lady above is old and greedy, and she has to enjoy all the good things first. In order to maintain their reputation of being filial, the Li family has to send everything to her first. Below her are several uncles who live with her and an aunt who has retired and returned, and then comes Li Wenxun's generation.

Unfortunately, the head of the household is still the eldest daughter, Wei. Wei is shrewd and calculating, so how could she have anything good to share with Lu Hanyi?

Besides, Lu Hanyi has been staying at home with her son these years, and Li Wenxun is an official outside. It is good enough that he does not ask for money from home. It is impossible for him to send even a penny of his salary back home.

So Lu Hanyi had to rely on her dowry and her mother's secret support to get by these years.

She came to attend Lu Kuan's wedding today, and this barely presentable outfit was the best she could offer.

"It's the Second Miss." Aunt Zhang saw her and hurriedly went to greet her with a smile on her face. "How can I not respect you? I just didn't see the Second Miss just now."

"How can Aunt Zhang see me now? I am dressed so ordinary. I am not as glamorous and wealthy as my elder sister!" Lu Hanyi's words made Aunt Zhang's teeth chatter.

Aunt Zhang really wanted to complain, if you are jealous of someone's wealth and splendor, why didn't you marry him?

Outsiders may not know, but don't their own family know? The Marquis's Mansion did not say which young lady they wanted to marry, but the Li family specifically asked for the eldest young lady.

Wasn’t it Lu Hanyi who rushed over to snatch the Li family’s lucrative son-in-law?

Now that I know they are living a rich and glorious life, why would I go there earlier?

But Aunt Zhang didn't dare to say anything because Lu Hanyi's mother, Liu, was still towering over her.

If Lu Hanyi goes back and complains, she will suffer the consequences.

"The Second Miss is just as radiant!" Aunt Zhang complimented, "All the daughters from our Lu family are excellent, and everyone speaks highly of them!"

Aunt Zhang is so slippery that even if she doesn't offend anyone, Lu Hanyi will still be unhappy.

"How can I compare with my elder sister? She is famous for her virtue and praised by everyone."

What Lu Hanyi hated the most was that in both her past and future lives, no matter who she married, Lu Lingyun always had such a good reputation!

All compliments!

During the years she was in Beijing, wherever Lu Lingyun was, everyone would gather around her.

She was like a mouse in the shadows, and could only be watched secretly in the crowd.

Today is Lu Kuan's wedding. She is also the eldest sister in the family, a real eldest sister, but everyone only knows Lu Lingyun and no one comes to see her.

She thought that she and Lu Lingyun were both Lu Kuan's sisters, so why was there such a big difference in their treatment!

Thinking that there was no difference between her and Lu Lingyun in this situation, she could no longer bear it and stood up to mock her.

Lu Lingyun made her feel so jealous, so she raised her glass and toasted her with a smile, "Okay, big sister, let me toast you. Today is Kuan'er's big day, so don't be angry."

Lu Hanyi pushed her hand away and said, "You also know that today is Lu Kuan's wedding. What are you, a married sister, showing off here?"

Lu Lingyun: "......"

"My mother is the legitimate mistress of the Lu family. She is just sick, not dead!" Lu Hanyi vented her jealousy and resentment towards her over the years. "She handed Lu Kuan's marriage over to Aunt Zhang, which really exposed you!"

"Second Miss, how can you say that?" Aunt Zhang was immediately anxious when she heard this. She crossed out her name and said, "I begged the eldest lady to help me. You know, I am of low status. How can I drink the wine of those ladies?"

"Then I didn't see you, Aunt Zhang, come to see me!" Lu Hanyi looked at Aunt Zhang with a gloomy look, "They are all married daughters, why can she drink the wine toasted by everyone here on behalf of Lu Kuan?"

"Second Miss..." Aunt Zhang was so overwhelmed by her aggressiveness that she couldn't say a word.

At this moment, a strong male voice came from the corridor.

"Because this house was given to me by my elder sister."

As the voice fell, today's groom strode into the inner courtyard.

When the women in the inner courtyard saw him, they all turned their heads and looked sideways.

Lu Kuan walked straight to Lu Lingyun. He looked a little tipsy, obviously because he had drunk a lot of wine with the male guests. Lu Kuan looked at Lu Lingyun with shining eyes and said to everyone, "This house is a gift from my elder sister. It's not just a house. I, Lu Kuan, can achieve what I have today thanks to my elder sister."

"Kuan'er." When Lu Lingyun heard him say this in public, she couldn't help but frown, indicating that there was no need for him to say more.

Lu Kuan's eyes were filled with gratitude. "Big sister has been very kind to me. Why can't I let everyone know?"

After he said this, the women in the backyard couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

These women, even if they were born into wealthy families, would spend their entire lives working hard for either their husband's family or their father's family.

How could they not be jealous of having such a grateful brother?

After Lu Kuan finished speaking, he turned to look at Lu Hanyi and said, "Second sister, you just asked, we are all married daughters, why is it that the eldest sister is qualified to arrange my wedding, the eldest sister gave me a future and a house, isn't she qualified?"
