Chapter 7 Are you determined to go against me?
Lu Yue arrived at the door but hid behind the pillar. Lu Xiang looked at her and rolled his eyes speechlessly. Did he think that his father wouldn't know that it was she who called the old lady over?
The old lady stepped into the main hall, glanced at Aunt Fang who was kneeling on the ground, passed her weak and aggrieved face, and finally looked at Lu Youping.
"What are you arguing about? Lu Mingzhu is the master. Can Liu He be considered the master? You are causing unrest in your family over a small matter. Is this the woman you favor?"
Liu was pretending to be aggrieved at first, but after being scolded by the old lady, she felt really aggrieved. Her face turned pale and blue, and she was so angry that she almost vomited blood.
What does it mean that she is causing unrest in the family?
This damn old woman, she just disliked her and slandered her like that.
Lu Youping was just wondering why the old lady came suddenly, and when he heard her say this about Liu, he immediately hugged Liu with heartache and frowned, "Mom, what are you talking about?"
The old lady glared at Lu Youping: "What are you talking about? Do you want me to be more straightforward?"
Lu Youping choked: "..."
To be more blunt, one would have to say that Liu was a concubine.
Under the threatening gaze from my mother, Lu Youping was so angry that his intestines were almost tied into a knot.
Which bastard filed the complaint?
"There's nothing serious here. Mom, you should go back and have some rest." Lu Youping quickly changed the subject.
The old lady glared at Lu Youping with a look of disappointment, then looked at Liu: "Liu, since you have entered my Lu family, you must abide by the rules of my Lu family. Only the mistress of the house can be called mother. Even if it is my own child, I can only call her aunt."
As the old lady finished her words, Liu, who was in Lu Youping's arms, turned even paler, and her lips trembled with anger.
Aunt Fang let out a breath of anger, "Bitch, I told you not to be so arrogant!"
It was indeed wise to ask the old lady to come over. This shameless mother and daughter dared to bully her by relying on the master's favor. She would make them pay for it.
She heard that the master was in the front yard so she came over, but when she reached the door she heard Lu Mingzhu actually call Liu "mother".
How can this be tolerated?
Mother, that is a respectful title only for the principal wife, and the master just acquiesced to it. Aunt Fang didn't dare to think deeply about the meaning behind it. She was immediately jealous and crazy. She immediately seized on Liu's mistake and made a big fuss about it.
But the master turned the tables on her and scolded her, wanting to teach her a lesson.
Lu Mingzhu glanced at the old lady cautiously and explained weakly, "Grandma, please calm down. It's my fault. I got used to it and couldn't change it for a while."
"How dare you! The elders are talking, and there's no right for a junior like you to interrupt." The old lady looked at Lu Mingzhu sternly.
I've been in the mansion for so long, is this just a habit that I can't change for the time being? I don't even want to change my words.
The old lady was already dissatisfied with Liu's mother and daughter, so she would not tolerate Lu Mingzhu playing tricks on her.
Lu Mingzhu cast a nervous look at Lu Youping.
Seeing the pitiful appearance of his beloved woman and beloved daughter, Lu Youping's heart suddenly tightened, and he looked at the old lady unhappily: "Mother, Mingzhu has always called her mother before, and I told her not to change it."
"Don't change it?" The old lady sneered with a clear meaning: "Do you mean that you are determined to go against me?"
Lu Youping looked at the old lady with a determined face: "I beg you to help me."
To fulfill his wish of making Liu his legitimate wife.
Aunt Fang's face, which was originally gloating over other people's misfortune, suddenly froze and she looked at Lu Youping in disbelief.
Although the master did not point it out explicitly, his meaning was very obvious.
Why?
Liu was of humble origin and was a concubine, even inferior to her. Yet the master actually wanted Liu to be the mistress and had already mentioned it to the old lady.
For a moment, Aunt Fang was almost swallowed by the jealousy in her heart. She stared at Liu with resentful eyes, wishing she could bite her teeth to pieces.
Liu and Lu Mingzhu showed delighted expressions, but due to the current atmosphere they did not dare to show it too obviously.
As long as the master agrees, the old lady will compromise in the end.
She was finally...finally going to become the mistress of the Lu Mansion...
Lu Xiang had been paying attention to Liu's mother and daughter. Seeing their suppressed joy at the moment, he couldn't help but reveal a hint of sneer.
Laugh, the happier you are now, the most exciting it will be when you end up with nothing in the end.
The old lady glanced at the stubborn Lu Youping dimly, and she calmed down after being extremely angry. She said to Aunt Fang, "Ms. Fang, if there is nothing else, please go back." After that, she turned around and left with Lu Xiang.
Lu Youping looked at the old lady who left calmly with a look of surprise. He was prepared for the old lady to be furious, so why did she just leave?
Although Aunt Fang was resentful, she understood that a man who knows the current situation is a hero. The old lady was helping her by letting her go. If she didn't leave, would she be punished by the master if she stayed? So she got up and left without falling.
"Fourth sister, stop hiding and help Aunt Fang go back." Lu Xiang's gentle voice suddenly sounded. In her previous life, Lu Yue had often taken advantage of her during her most difficult days. Since she didn't treat her as a sister, don't blame her for being ruthless in this life.
Lu Yue was startled.
Damn Lu Xiang, just leave if you want to, why call her suddenly?
If I had known, I wouldn't have stayed to watch the fun.
Lu Yue gritted her teeth and walked over to support Aunt Fang, whose legs were sore from kneeling. She didn't dare to look at Lu Youping's expression. She felt as if her back was almost pierced by her father's sharp gaze.
"This evil girl..." Lu Youping cursed through gritted teeth.
He said why did the old lady come here suddenly, it turned out that it was this girl who reported it.
She is really spoiled on a daily basis, and she even dares to trip up her father.
Liu looked up at Lu Youping and said tenderly, "Master, don't be angry."
Lu Youping's anger was extinguished by Liu's gentle words, and he smiled dotingly, "Don't worry, I'm here, and I will never let you and Mingzhu down."
"Yeah." Liu leaned on Lu Youping's chest and responded sweetly.
She and Lu Mingzhu looked at each other and saw the pride of impending victory in each other's eyes.
The old lady left without saying anything. It seemed that her dream of becoming a mistress was not far away.
…
The wind blew away the clouds, and the light of the rising sun penetrated the clouds.
A simple yet exquisite carriage left the Lu Mansion in a low-key manner. The tassels hanging from the four corners of the carriage swayed gently in the wind. Two brown horses, with their manes shining in the sun, galloped on the quiet street.
The departure of the old lady and Lu Xiang did not alarm the mansion. When Lu Youping found out, he was only suspicious for a moment and did not notice anything wrong.
Hua'an Temple is one of the five major temples in the Wei Dynasty. It is very popular. Even wealthy businessmen from the towns surrounding Yangning City like to come here to burn incense even if they have to travel long distances.
Long stone steps rise up layer by layer. Looking up, you can see the majestic and solemn temple stretching between heaven and earth.
