Chapter 34 Leaving Lu Mansion
After a while, Pei Xia came to Wei Rui Pavilion and saw Liu Shi smiling and asked: "Old Madam has a bad memory, did you forget something?"
Liu Shi glared at her.
"The eldest princess testified in the temple that Nanny Qin will spend her last days in the Lu Mansion. The old lady will not be reluctant, right?"
Mrs. Yang scolded, "You are a maid from another family, why do you care about the affairs of the Lu Mansion?"
Pei Xia did not even look at her, but said to Liu, "The young lady specially asked me to come and watch Nanny Qin being punished. When doing things, we should have a beginning and an end. If the old lady really can't bear it, I can tell the Dali Temple on her behalf and let them help with the execution. After all, my old man is good friends with Lord Lu, and it will only be a matter of course when we return to the Su family."
How could the old man be good friends with Lord Lu? It was obvious that the young lady had some connections with him, but it was difficult to say it in front of others, so Pei Xia had to say it in a roundabout way.
Seeing Pei Xia standing over her head and showing off her power, Liu was almost furious. She threw a teacup to the ground and said angrily, "Madam Qin, I will take care of it myself. You don't need to pretend to care about me here!"
"I think the old lady will definitely do justice for Madam Liu. How can a nanny with ulterior motives compare to Madam Liu? Not to mention she is pregnant!" Pei Xia swept her eyes and continued with a hint of meaning, "At that time, my young lady took tonic medicine several times to nourish her body. Even the palace doctors had checked that there was nothing wrong with her body, but she just couldn't get pregnant. Madam Liu is amazing. She gave birth to a dragon and phoenix twin for Master Lu while living in the other courtyard. Now she is pregnant again. The old lady must be biased towards her to make sense... "
Mrs. Liu heard the implication in the words, and glared at Pei Xia with angry eyes, and asked loudly: "What do you mean by saying this?"
Pei Xia lowered her eyes and smiled slightly: "The old lady may not know that when Doctor Lin Yu took the young lady's pulse, he did not find anything unusual. Instead, he reminded Young Master Lu that he should make a diagnosis. After all, having a child is a matter for two people, and it is not something that my young lady can decide alone, right?"
The faces of Mrs. Yang and Mrs. Liu changed. From what she said, wasn't she implying that Lu Yi and Lu Jiao were not Yan Xiu's children?
"You are talking nonsense, be careful or I will peel off your tongue!"
Pei Xia was not afraid of her, and continued: "As for whether it is true or not, the old lady will know it after checking it out. The young lady is still waiting for me to return to the mansion, so I won't waste my breath here with the old lady."
Liu watched her leave with her head held high, trembling with anger. After taking a deep breath, she asked Yang Po to investigate Liu Qiuqiu's background.
The carriage outside the Lu Mansion was full of dowry.
From bowls, plates, wooden chairs, antiques, to jewelry, gold and silver, and many other unnamed objects, Su Ling counted them and confirmed that they were correct, and then the team left the Lu Mansion in a mighty manner.
Su He did not plan to return to the Su Mansion, but asked Su Ling to take the team to a garden under her name.
Su Ling advised her: "Although the aunts at home have second thoughts, your sister-in-law and I both protect you, so I think they dare not do anything wrong. You are alone, and you are not used to living separately, and I am afraid that mother will worry."
Su He said: "I am a divorced person, so I will not go back to disturb my brothers and sisters. This garden was given by my father when I got married. It is more spacious than Lu's mansion. I am happy. "I want to be at ease . My mother...she will understand me."
In the Su Mansion, Su Ronghai had two concubines besides his wife Wang. Each of the concubines had a son and a daughter, and they were only a few years younger than Su He. Seeing that the time for marriage was approaching, she should not go back with her divorced status and make things uncomfortable, lest the two concubines act superior to her mother, which would be unpleasant to others.
Su Ling knew the reason.
Seeing that Su He had such a tough attitude, he could only let it go. He always felt uneasy in his heart, so he left half of the servants he brought today in the garden, and sent some capable and honest maids from the Su Mansion over, and then he felt it was appropriate.
Soon after Su Ling left, he sent two boxes of silver. Pei Xia looked at the heavy boxes and couldn't help saying, "The eldest master still loves the young lady."
Su He was also full of mixed feelings. If Su Ling hadn't helped today, Liu might have made trouble again. She was silent for a while and suddenly asked, "Lu Yunqing left the house early this morning?"
"Yes, I saw her wearing a brightly colored dress and a lot of makeup. I guess she was going to meet someone." Pei Xia glanced at her on the way to Weirui Pavilion. At that time, she was rushing out, looking around for fear of being seen.
Lu Yunqing's heart was in love with Xuande General Li Qi, which was a fact known to everyone in the mansion.
In the previous life, Su He knew her thoughts and intended to bring the two together, but was opposed by Li Qi's mother, Chen, who declared that she would never let her son marry a woman like Lu Yunqing.
Su He was only concerned about Lu Yunqing's happiness. Seeing Chen's tough attitude and looking down on the Lu family, she tried her best to persuade her not to marry into such a family, otherwise she would live under the control of her mother-in-law for the rest of her life.
At that time, Lu Yunqing was madly in love with Li Qi, and she was sulking for several days because of Su He's admonition. Later, Li Qi married a woman from another family as his principal wife, and Su He also actively looked for a better husband's family for Lu Yunqing, which made her let go of her previous grudges.
As for this time, Lu Yunqing will still love Li Qi to death, but Su He will not bother to persuade her anymore.
The words she used to ridicule herself in her previous life vaguely floated in her ears.
If Lu Yunqing really had the opportunity to marry Li Qi, with her brother Lu Yanxiu's official title and the Lu family's status, would Chen let her give birth to a legitimate son?
Su He looked at the dark clouds hanging not far away.
It is a good way to treat others in their own way.
The autumn banquet in memory came quickly.
Su He received the invitation, which was brought to the garden by her sister-in-law Zhao Wanrong herself. She stood on the steps and looked at the plaque above her head. The two words "Su House" were written with a backstroke, which was elegant and beautiful.
"Mother sent someone to clean up your yard a long time ago, why do you want to live alone? I feel that I owe you the divorce, and I thought I would make up for it after returning home, but you still made mother sad."
Zhao Wanrong and Su He walked in the courtyard. After a few days of renovation, the layout of the house has been improved a lot.
Speaking of her mother, Su He was a little depressed and explained: "Sister-in-law, Su Yun and Su Lian are about to get married. If I go back, I'm afraid that the two concubines will quarrel and make my father and mother restless."
In today's world, daughters value morality the most. Although divorce is not a sin, it is still covered with a layer of gauze and cannot be seen by others.
"It's okay. I know everything. Mother also understands. It's just that I can't help but feel sad."
Zhao Wanrong took Su He's hand and caressed it soothingly, and then talked about tomorrow's autumn banquet, which was organized by Mrs. Duan of the Shangshu Ling family. It was held on schedule every year and had never been delayed.
