Chapter 308: Was He Beaten Stupid?
Yao was tortured directly in the Plum Courtyard, cursing profanely. Manager Du looked at her coldly, and did not block her mouth. He just said, "Yao, if you want to do this for the sake of the Seventh Young Master, you'd better keep your mouth shut."
You know, the Seventh Young Master is still young, but both the Eldest Young Master and the Third Young Miss have grown up.
Manager Du's faint warning made Yao's face turn pale and she bit her lips.
Xiao'er is the master's last son. The master and the old lady will definitely protect him and raise him well. But if she says something before she dies that displeases the old lady and the master, then the hatred towards her may be transferred to Xiao'er.
Yao figured it out quickly and accepted the beating with her eyes closed.
Do you regret it?
I regretted it, but I only regretted that I was stupid enough to ask Aunt Lin and her daughter to help me.
Compared to Yao who did not dare to curse, Zhou's mother and Huazhi in the front yard were not so cautious. They screamed and cursed Yao.
The servants of the Lu Mansion stood aside, their faces all pale.
In less than half an hour, the backs of Zhou Mama and Huazhi were covered in blood and flesh. Even their screams became weaker, let alone cursing...
Lu Qiao sat in her room, faintly listening to the screams outside, and the fingertips holding the teacup turned slightly white.
Qiao Jingru stood at the gate of Qixia Courtyard, looking in a daze at the direction where the screams came from.
"Sister-in-law, have a cup of calming tea." Lu Xiang handed the teacup to Qiao Jingru and said.
Qiao Jingru took the teacup and gave her a faint smile: "Xiangxiang, thank you so much today. I will never forget your kindness in my life."
"Sister-in-law, thank you is too formal. It is the Lu family who has implicated you."
"Then let's not talk about it. I'll work like a slave for the rest of my life." Qiao Jingru chuckled and then asked, "Does your wound hurt?"
Seeing that she looked haggard but in good spirits, Lu Xiang breathed a sigh of relief.
"I've been taking care of it for a few days, it's fine."
Qiao Jingru looked at her in disbelief.
"Grandma was so worried about me that she didn't notice. You looked a little off since you came back. It's all my fault. I was so sad that I ignored your serious injury. Let's call a doctor to take a look."
"No, no, don't worry, sister-in-law, I know what's going on. The wound was torn a little bit when I was beating someone. It's okay." Lu Xiang shook her hand quickly, her bright little face slightly tilted up, with a hint of coquettishness.
Qiao Jingru touched Lu Xiang's little face and compromised.
"Okay, if you feel uncomfortable, you must tell me."
"I understand, sister-in-law. It's getting late. You should go to bed early." Lu Xiang said.
Qiao Jingru nodded and walked into the house with the teacup.
When she reached the door, she turned to Lu Xiang and said, "Xiang Xiang..."
"Hmm?" Lu Xiang looked at her with his big eyes that clearly showed black and white.
"I decided to divorce."
Hearing this, Lu Xiang was slightly startled, then showed an expected expression, and nodded, "Okay, since sister-in-law has made up her mind, it will be very sad for you to stay in the Lu family. Tomorrow I will ask someone to send you back to the Qiao family, and I will sort out your dowry and send it to you later."
Lu Xiang naturally got back the 100,000 taels of silver and other things that he had used to redeem Lu Chao intact.
"You don't blame me?" Qiao Jingru looked at Lu Xiang blankly and asked.
"No blame." Lu Xiang said, "Anyone who marries a scumbag like Lu Chao will be unlucky. My sister-in-law is young and beautiful, and she can definitely find another ideal husband who loves you and will piss Lu Chao off to death."
There are still opportunities to choose in this life. Qiao Jingru should be pampered. Why should she stay in the Lu family and face Lu Chao, the scourge?
When Qiao Jingru heard what Lu Xiang said, she felt a little amused and the sadness in her heart was instantly alleviated.
Yes, she married Lu Chao with all her heart and dreams for the future, but the reality dealt her a heavy blow. She should have faced this reality when Lu Chao chose Rong Yin to leave the Lu family with her, but she loved him too much and was reluctant to let go.
Now she is tired.
Lu Chao can marry whomever he likes.
From now on, I will just turn a blind eye to it.
"I just feel ashamed of my grandmother and father, and have failed to live up to their kindness."
Lu Xiang: "Grandma will understand."
As for her father, Lu Xiang laughed in his heart.
Lu Youping's opinion does not count.
After Qiao Jingru entered the house, Lu Xiang went to find Ah Man.
"Has Rong Yin been caught?"
In the afternoon, Ah Man took some time out of the house and went to Zhaocai Casino with Rong Yin's portrait to find Zong Li and asked him to catch the person.
Ah Man helped Lu Xiang sit down at the table and replied, "We found her, along with her maid, and they were locked up in the blockhouse."
Just because the Lu Mansion can’t find someone doesn’t mean that others can’t find him.
Lu Xiang's eyes turned cold. Just as she was about to speak, Ah Man spoke first, looking at her with indignation: "Miss, don't even think about going to see her now. I don't agree. Look at what you've done to yourself this day. Zong Li is watching her and won't let her run away. There's no harm in dealing with her a few days later. It's just right to lock her up and let her have a taste of fear."
Ah Man pouted her lips angrily, looking pretty and honest, with a hint of stubbornness.
Lu Xiang couldn't help but chuckle: "Okay, I won't go. I'll take good care of myself for two days."
Ah Man grinned when she heard this: "Miss, go back to your room and lie down. I will change the medicine for you."
…
The bodies of the three Yao family members were transported away overnight.
Lu Chao, who had been in a coma for a day and a night, woke up the next morning.
Looking at the tent above his head for a moment, he was a little dazed, his eyes were motionless, and the servants were so scared that they thought their master had been beaten stupidly, and they hurriedly crawled to inform Lu Youping.
"Master, Master, the young master is awake."
Lu Youping was eating and washing up, and he was a little excited when he heard this: "Really."
"Really? It's just that the young master woke up and stared at the ceiling for a long time without moving. Could it be... Could it be..."
"What's wrong? Can you please speak properly?" Lu Youping anxiously patted the servant on the head.
The servant shrank his head after being hit, and mumbled, "Maybe the young master has been beaten stupid."
Lu Youping was startled, then strode towards Qinghuiyuan.
The doctor who treated Lu Chao yesterday was asked by Lu Youping to stay because Lu Chao's injuries were too serious and he was afraid that something might happen at any time.
When Lu Youping arrived, the doctor was already there and was looking at Lu Chao's eyes.
"Doctor, how is my son?"
Lu Youping glanced at his eldest son lying on the bed. His face was obviously more swollen than yesterday, and it was unbearable to look at.
The doctor did not reply immediately, but took the patient's pulse again before saying, "Don't worry, Master Lu. He will be fine once he wakes up, but you still have to take good care of him."
"Is his brain okay?"
