Chapter 131 Is It Great to Have a Son?
After dinner, Aunt Yao and others went back, and she turned and went to the Lotus Garden.
Liu was smashing things in the house. Fanghua stood at the door and didn't dare to go in. When she saw Aunt Yao, she bowed and said, "Hello, Aunt Yao."
Aunt Yao glanced at Liu in the room and waved to Fanghua: "I have something to say to your aunt, you go down first."
Fanghua was overjoyed, so she responded and left.
"Are you afraid that the master doesn't know that you are jealous? Suddenly Zhao Qingya showed up, and today she asked the master to say that she is a lucky star. It is self-evident how much the master values her. You don't even think of a way out, but you just want to vent your anger. Do you intend to let your daughter suffer in the manor forever?"
Liu was holding a vase, but after hearing what Aunt Yao said, she could no longer put it down and could only put it down angrily.
"That old hag from Fuyuan Hall has been against me since I entered the mansion. She is a nuisance when she is alive. She thought that by taking Zhao Qingya as a concubine, she could sow discord between me and the master. Humph, she is dreaming. Wait, the master will stay here for one night at most, and he will not go to the elegant courtyard again after that."
The bond between her and the master is as strong as gold, and cannot be destroyed by just any woman.
Aunt Yao rolled her eyes speechlessly. Judging from the master's attitude towards Zhao Qingya today, it didn't seem like he didn't like her. Did Liu know clearly about her current situation in the Lu Mansion?
"No matter whether the master favors Zhao Qingya or not, the fact is that you can no longer make the master like you as much as he did in the past."
Liu couldn't stand hearing such words and glared at Aunt Yao: "You are talking nonsense, the master only has me in his heart, he loves me."
Aunt Yao choked and said, "Okay, I won't discuss this with you. Since the master loves you so much, then you should think of a way to bring him back to your side."
Humph, you are just jealous of me.
Liu said secretly in her heart.
"You don't need to tell me this. You exposed Yuxiang's incident last time. It may not be that easy to get rid of Lu Xiang again. Have you thought about what to do next?"
As long as Lu Xiang is alive, she will not be able to get rid of the hatred in her heart.
Aunt Yao frowned when she heard that. She felt uncomfortable when she mentioned Lu Xiang. In the past, with Liu taking the lead, she could hide in the dark and plan slowly, but now that she was dragged out into the open, she seemed to be restrained.
To be honest, Liu is useless. If she could ask the master to make her the principal wife as soon as she entered the mansion, Lu Xiang would not be anything to be afraid of.
Now she is the only legitimate daughter in the Lu family, with a noble status. Not only is she loved by the old lady, but even the queen likes her very much.
"Since we can't do anything, let's create some trouble for her so that she won't be able to handle it." Aunt Yao said hatefully.
Liu looked at Aunt Yao with shining eyes, waiting to hear what good ideas she would come up with.
Aunt Yao glanced at her calmly and said, "Although I am not favored by the master, I have a son. Although you have a daughter, she has been sent to the manor now. Think about it carefully. It is not just Lu Xiang who is hindering you now. Even if Lu Xiang dies, you cannot become the mistress of the Lu family."
With a daughter like Lu Mingzhu, Liu has no hope of success in her life unless Lu Mingzhu can turn things around.
But is it possible?
Liu's face suddenly turned dark: "..."
Is it great to have a son?
It's so infuriating.
Aunt Yao left after saying this.
After leaving the Lotus Courtyard, Mother Zhou couldn't help but ask, "Auntie, is Auntie Liu still useful? All the time we've spent on her over the years has been wasted."
If the aunt was not disfavored by the master, she would not have supported Liu. Even the Seventh Young Master was born because of the aunt's exhaustive efforts. It's infuriating just to think about it.
Under the moonlight, Aunt Yao's expression became colder and colder. "Lu Mingzhu has been despised, and she has no way out. Today, the old lady praised Zhao Qingya again, which is obviously aimed at us. In order to avoid being suppressed, Liu will be more ruthless. If she can bring down one of them, it won't be a waste of my efforts."
"The old lady is really strange. She doesn't love her grandson, our Seventh Young Master, but treats our Third Miss, a money-loser, as a treasure. Ever since Yuxiang died in my aunt's bed, the old lady must have been resentful of you." Mother Zhou said.
"Who knows?" Aunt Yao said lightly.
But the old woman in Fuyuantang is really a nuisance.
She originally thought that Xiao'er was still young and she had plenty of time to pave the way for him, but now it seemed that she would be restless day and night if she didn't remove the stumbling block. Fortunately, she now had someone to help her behind the scenes. That person said that as long as Lu Xiang died, he would find a way to give her brother an official position. With her brother changing the family line, her status would be enough to become the master's successor, and her son would be the noble legitimate son of the Lu family in the future.
Liu firmly believed that Lu Youping only stayed in Yayuan for one night out of consideration for the old lady's face. However, Lu Youping stayed in Yayuan every day for a month. Now everyone in the mansion understood that Aunt Zhao was favored by the master, and Liu became panicked.
In the past, she was the only one favored and never had to compete, but now she has to use all her tricks to compete for favor with Zhao Qingya.
It snowed half a month before the New Year, from heavy snow to light snow, and a thick layer of snow accumulated on the ground in just one day.
Qiao Jingru wrapped in a thick fox fur coat and carried a small heater to Qixia Courtyard.
Lu Xiang was in the warm room. Qiao Jingru came in and Yunzhe took off the fox fur coat for her. She stomped the snow on her shoes at the door and then walked towards Lu Xiang.
The girl had long black hair tied up in a bun, with a jade hairpin inserted in it, earrings inlaid with cat's eyes on her ears, and a pair of watery eyes on her fair jade face.
At this moment, she was sitting on the couch, covered with a white and soft blanket. There was a pot of hot milk on the low table, cakes and snacks were placed in the square grid, a basket filled with melon seed shells was at her hand, and in her hand was a newly released storybook.
"You live a leisurely life these days, leaving all the work to me."
Lu Xiang moved inside to make room for Qiao Jingru, grinning and showing her white teeth: "Sister-in-law, you should do more work, so let me be lazy."
Qiao Jingru glared at her, then sat down next to her and pulled the blanket over herself.
Lu Xiang poured her a glass of milk attentively: "It's so cold outside, drink some to warm yourself up."
"Being cold is secondary. I came here to tell you something." Qiao Jingru took a sip and said, "Madam Liu is pregnant."
Well……
Lu Xiang was stunned, staring at Qiao Jingru blankly, feeling like he was struck by lightning by this news.
"Is the news accurate?" Lu Xiang asked in disbelief.
Qiao Jingru drank milk and pinched a piece of cake: "Well, I just came from Heyuan."
Now that she is the head of the household, she has to be informed of any events in the mansion. When she heard that Aunt Liu was pregnant, she was even more confused than Lu Xiang.
"Have you seen a doctor?" Lu Xiang asked.
