Chapter 12 Don't Get Your Life Injured

"If you don't want me to pursue what happened today, please hand in the divorce letter as soon as possible. All the money and property in the mansion that belongs to my Su family must be returned in full, including every penny of dowry I spent in the Lu mansion, which must be returned according to the account book. It doesn't matter if you can't pay it back, you can write an IOU. Those scattered clothes and jewelry given to you, just consider it as my great mercy."

Lu Yanxiu felt ashamed as if he was slapped in the face when his wife asked for the dowry he had spent. "Are you really so cruel?"

Su He raised his eyebrows slightly, and said slowly: "Your grandmother colluded with others to frame my innocence and wanted to swallow up my dowry. Is this true?"

After the divorce, she can take everything away.

After being divorced, she could only leave the Lu Mansion alone, becoming a slut who was accused and spitted upon!

It must be said that the old lady's move was quite cruel.

Lu Yanxiu's panicked pupils trembled, but how could she know?

Liu denied it flatly, and still insisted on what she said just now, putting the blame on the children of Mrs. Yang.

Su He was not annoyed, and directly called Pei Xia: "Go to the Dali Temple to invite Lord Lu over."

"Stop!" Lu Yanxiu shouted, not letting Pei Xia leave the house.

Seeing that Su He really didn't take the Lu Mansion seriously, Liu's momentum gradually weakened, and she leaned back in the chair in silence, unwilling to accept it.

However, those scheming old eyes still revealed a hint of hostility towards Su He.

"I will give you the divorce agreement as soon as possible, and I will not embezzle a penny of your dowry. As for the previous expenses, you can write an IOU and I will sign it."

Lu Yanxiu was silent for a few seconds, then gave Su He an answer, which was his complete retreat.

Su He's tense body finally relaxed, but he heard him say, "I will go back with you to visit my parents tomorrow."

Lu Yanxiu was still the aunt of the Su family and had the right to go to the Su family, and Su He could not stop her.

But she was still worried, thinking that Lu Yanxiu and Liu would not let it go so easily. Perhaps they had some other plans behind the scenes?

Su He was silent for a moment, and responded in a light tone, which was considered as an agreement.

After returning to the Guihua Courtyard, Pei Xia helped Su He wash up, and mentioned the two people imprisoned in the firewood room in the backyard, thinking that they should not be let off easily.

This was a failure. If it really happened, wouldn't her young lady become a laughing stock in the whole capital?

"How do you think we should deal with it?"

Pei Xia puffed up her cheeks and said angrily, "At least she should suffer some physical pain, right? It must be God's mercy, otherwise we will be wronged!"

The young lady used this to make a deal with the dowry. Although it was not a loss, Pei Xia still felt unhappy and felt suffocated in her heart!

Su He knew that she could not bear to suffer a loss, so he agreed, "You keep an eye on her and don't hurt her life."

Pei Xia agreed.

After the hall was dispersed, Liu returned to Weirui Pavilion and did not rest, but hurriedly sent someone to call Lu Yanxiu.

Upon seeing his grandmother, Lu Yanxiu hadn't spoken yet when he heard Liu say, "Su He humiliated us in public, and the Su family saw us all. Who knows how they will laugh at us behind our backs?"

Lu Yanxiu frowned, somewhat disapproving of her words. After all, it was his grandmother who had framed her first.

It was just a coincidence that Zhao Wanrong and Su Ling ran into the interrogation.

Lu Yanxiu was lower in status than the Su family, so he couldn't help but feel inferior when he met them. No matter what Su He said, he couldn't refute it.

"You just let a woman bully you like that?" Liu beat her chest and stamped her feet. In addition, the meals at the mansion have been light and vegetarian for the past few days, and fried meat is hard to find. However, the aroma of meat in the osmanthus courtyard is so delicious!

If Su He had no money, could he still be so arrogant?

Liu felt more and more unbalanced.

She thought of how Su He treated her respectfully and politely in the past and never disobeyed her. Now that Liu Qiuqiu came to the mansion, she became jealous and left her alone, not even transferring money. Liu felt upset.

If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Yang was related to something that happened many years ago, she wouldn't have to be afraid of Su He's interrogation.

"Grandma, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first."

Lu Yanxiu had to go to Yuxuan to accompany Liu Qiuqiu. He heard her say that Yi'er didn't like the food prepared by the kitchen and hadn't eaten for a day. He

looked at the sky and thought it was still early. Fanlou hadn't closed yet, so he thought about sending someone to buy some food that the children liked.

Liu wanted to discuss with Lu Yanxiu, but he wasn't interested, so she waved him away.

Nanny Qin, who was waiting on the side, turned off the lights outside, leaving only the carved lights in the room. She heard Liu lying on the bed with her eyes closed and groaning: "Liu is also a petty person! If it weren't for the sake of my great-grandson, I would never let her come back..."

After a while of mumbling, she suddenly heard a few miserable screams.

Liu listened again, and there was no sound again. She instructed Nanny Qin: "Go and check on those people in the firewood room early tomorrow morning, and don't let anything happen in our house."

"I've made a note of it."

In the osmanthus courtyard, Su He was lying on the soft couch reading a book. Pei Xia came back from outside and brought news about Zhang from Youranju.

"The eldest lady has bedsores. She gets angry when the maids get close to her. She is annoyed by everyone she sees."

Su He did not even raise his eyes: "What about other people? Have you visited them?"

Pei Xia said: "Of course the old lady would not visit them. Even when you went to Youranju to take care of them, the old lady did not ask about them many times. As for the aunt... he seemed to miss his biological mother, but unfortunately Aunt Liu was pestering him, so he had to ask someone to go outside the mansion to invite a doctor. But the eldest lady did not allow strangers to get close, and there was nothing she could do for a while."

Zhang was also a pitiful person.

Her leg was broken by the eldest master himself, and it was also because of the conflict caused by taking a concubine.

The eldest master Lu Chengye was a playboy, especially fond of fireworks venues, and he also took two women back to the mansion as concubines.

Zhang was originally a person with a bad temper. She couldn't stand sharing a husband with a prostitute. Seeing that she couldn't do anything to Lu Chengye, she sold her two concubines to noble families as maids.

Lu Chengye couldn't find concubines, so he took out his anger on her.

Zhang was not from the capital. She was sold to Lu Chengye as a child bride by her parents when she was young. He was used to beating and scolding her. That time, he didn't pay enough attention and broke her legs.

Thinking of this, Su He felt sympathy for Zhang.

She had suffered from bedsores before, and the maids were all disgusted and did not take good care of her. Only Su He was not tired of running around for her, not minding the ugly and smelly bedsores on her body, but now her relationship with Lu Yanxiu was delicate, and it was impossible for her to serve him personally.

"Okay, take a rest."

Su He handed the letter to Pei Xia, took off her outer garment embroidered with a white magnolia pattern, and got into bed.

Seeing that the lights in the osmanthus courtyard were turned off, Lu Yanxiu was particularly disgusted with Su He's ruthlessness.

Even if they were not the same kind of people in the future, couldn't he still do his best to treat his former mother-in-law?
