Chapter 47 Lu Yunqing Wants to Be a Consort

In the evening, the rain was heavy and many puddles formed in the courtyard.

Pei Xia trotted from the hall to the courtyard. Seeing that Su He had not woken up yet, she waited by her side.

Thunder roared in the sky and Su He opened her eyes. Pei Xia hurried forward and said, "Miss Lu San is here."

Su He rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked her to invite her over.

I haven't seen Lu Yunqing for several days, and I don't know how her relationship with Li Qi is going.

It's not far from the hall to the courtyard. Lu Yunqing was anxious to see Su He, so she walked quickly and soon arrived in front of her.

Seeing her kind-hearted sister-in-law again, Lu Yunqing's eyes turned red, as if she had a lot of words to say to her.

Since she was discovered by Chen at the Zhaixing Restaurant with Li Qi last time, she has not seen Li Qi again, and even the letters she sent were returned intact.

Chen didn't like her in the first place, and now she made a fuss about her pregnancy. Although she didn't say it openly, she hated her in her heart.

Words spoken are like spilled water, there is no reason to take them back.

Lu Yunqing didn't know whether this was right or wrong.

Seeing that she couldn't contact Li Qi, she had no other choice but to worry. Instead of sitting at home and worrying, why not go to her sister-in-law for advice?

"Sister-in-law."

Su He heard her call him like this again, but he didn't

show it on his face. Instead, he pulled her to sit beside him with a gentle smile and asked about her recent situation. Of course, Lu Yunqing couldn't tell anyone about what happened in the Zhaixing Restaurant. What would she do if such a shameful thing got out?

"Li Qi and I haven't seen each other for a long time. The people I sent sent letters to him but he didn't respond! I heard that he will go to the battlefield after the early spring next year. What will I do in the future if my relationship with him is not settled?"

Su He brewed a cup of hot tea and handed it to her, saying comfortingly, "Li Qi has you in his heart and will definitely make a choice for you."

"That's true, but sister-in-law, you don't know that I have been with Li Qi for half a year, and now..." Lu Yunqing paused, bit her lip and continued, "Now I am pregnant. Li Qi has no say in the family. Everything depends on Aunt Chen. I am afraid she will never let Li Qi have any contact with me."

In the past, Zhang was paralyzed and bedridden and couldn't take care of her much. It was after Su He got married that Lu Yunqing began to feel cared for.

An elder sister-in-law is like a mother, and this is even more so in her heart.

She wants to find a way when it comes to a critical moment. When

Su He heard the word "pregnant", her eyes were slightly turbulent.

She looked at Lu Yunqing quietly, and at this moment, she had a kind of beauty of pear blossoms in the rain.

"Then why did you come to see me..." Su He pretended not to understand.

Lu Yunqing suddenly became anxious, grabbed her hand and said anxiously: "Good sister-in-law, you are my only sister-in-law. Although you and your brother have divorced, I still recognize you in my heart! Li Qi and I have already made a fait accompli. If he listens to Aunt Chen and separates from me, I will lose my innocence and be pregnant. How should I deal with it?"

Su He couldn't help laughing when she kept calling her a good sister-in-law.

In her previous life, she was able to marry a rich man, but she affectionately called Liu Qiuqiu sister-in-law in front of everyone. What was she thinking at that time?

Su He pulled her hand away, smiling, "You and Li Qi are destined to be together, otherwise how could God give you a child so soon? As for Chen's... I will find a way for you."

After that, she lowered her eyes and touched Lu Yunqing's flat belly, smiling even more: "That's great, Li Qi must be very happy to know that you are pregnant. I am not blessed to have a child, you must protect my nephew well."

The word "nephew" made Lu Yunqing feel guilty, and then she proudly raised her chin: "Of course I will."

After the greetings, Lu Yunqing was going home.

Su He noticed that the corners of her skirt were wet, so she asked Pei Xia to get a clean dress for her to change into.

"And this, please give it to Zhili for me."

She handed over a set of thick clothes and shoes, which were very popular men's styles in Beijing.

Lu Yunqing was a little curious: "What are these..."

"Your second brother will take the exam in the spring. I heard that he will stay in the examination room for several days. The dew is heavy in the spring night. I am afraid that the wind and cold will enter the body and make the body uncomfortable. It is better to keep warm." She smiled slightly, watching Lu Yunqing carefully accept it, and touching the expensive material, it was indeed good.

She thanked him softly, her heart was deeply moved, and she was a little reluctant when she left.

After leaving Su's house, Lu Yunqing sat in the carriage back to Lu's house.

Chun Tao looked at her new dress and couldn't help saying, "This material is so luxurious and delicate. The young lady didn't feel sorry for it at all, so she gave it to you, young lady. She is really generous."

Lu Yunqing ran her fingers over the skirt. The touch between her fingertips was silky and noble. It was indeed different from the materials she usually wore. Together with the clothes she gave to her second brother, it must be worth at least ten taels.

Thinking of Su He living here with so many dowries, many maids and servants serving her, countless treasures, and luxurious dresses...

Lu Yunqing immediately said coldly, "She is no longer the young lady."

"But young lady, you still call her sister-in-law?"

"Oh, if I don't call her more intimately, how can she help me?" Lu Yunqing leaned against the inner wall with a mocking smile on her face, "She must be very jealous when she heard the news of my pregnancy. There is no way, who can I blame if God doesn't have mercy on me?"

Chuntao didn't understand: "Miss, aren't you pregnant?"

Lu Yunqing said with disdain: "If I didn't say that, Li Qi and I would really have nothing to do with each other! I have been struggling with him for half a year. If I didn't want to be his wife and get rid of the incompetent Lu family, what would it be for? Su He is right, Liu Qiuqiu is the most successful example, I have to follow her! From now on, even if I am really pregnant, my eating habits must change accordingly, remember?"

"......Yes."

After sending Lu Yunqing away, Su He stood in front of the rain and looked at the night sky.

Pei Xia added a piece of clothing for her and draped it over her shoulders, and said casually: "Miss, do you really want to help Miss Lu San?"

Su He's eyes flashed with disgust, and her tone turned cold: "Of course I will help her."

Since marrying into the Li Mansion is Lu Yunqing's wish, why not fulfill her

wish? After the beginning of spring next year, Li Qi will have to guard the territory again, and the return date is uncertain. Regardless of whether Lu Yunqing is really pregnant or faking it, once she enters the threshold of the Li Mansion, under the eyes of Chen, will she have any room to turn around?

Su He could suddenly imagine how Lu Yunqing would cry and wail in the future.

Three days later, the news that General Xuande of the Li family was engaged to the fourth daughter of the Zhao family came out.

After Lu Yunqing learned about it, she cried and threatened to commit suicide in the mansion, which frightened Li Qi to visit the mansion in person, and then the rumors about the two spread in the capital.

Su He heard it from Zhao Wanrong.

It was the Mid-Autumn Festival that day, and she was called home by Wang to reunite.

After dinner, Zhao Wanrong took Su He to the courtyard to watch the moon, and mentioned the recent strange things in the capital, which made her particularly angry.

"Li Qi looks like a decent person, but he

is actually a filthy person! Poor my fourth sister, such a scandal has spread before she even got married!" If it was someone else, she would have accepted it, but it had to be someone from the Lu Mansion! Wasn't this intentional?

Su Yun took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Why is sister-in-law so angry? Why not let General Xuande take that woman into the mansion as a concubine, so that we can live in peace."

She is the daughter of Su Ronghai and the second aunt. She has delicate eyebrows and delicate features. She can be considered a beauty.

While speaking, Su Yun glanced at Su He intentionally or unintentionally, as if she was hinting at something.

"Fourth sister is generous, it's fine to take someone into the mansion as a concubine, but Lu Yunqing is unwilling to do so. She relies on her pregnancy and even asks to be a co-wife!"
