Chapter 98 Do You Have Shame?
Lu Xiang entered the room and bowed to Lu Youping: "Dad."
"Yes." Lu Youping responded with a complicated expression: "Your fourth sister got into trouble in the palace, why didn't you plead for her?"
Lu Xiang raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Youping meaningfully: "Dad, do you know what she did in the palace?"
Lu Youping touched his nose awkwardly: "She was afraid and said the wrong thing. She didn't mean to accuse you of pushing her."
Lu Xiang laughed out loud after hearing this: "Dad, so it's not a big deal that Fourth Sister deliberately wronged me in the palace, but I am a ruthless person if I don't plead for her? Is there any justice in this world?"
Well……
Lu Youping felt a little guilty when being questioned by Lu Xiang.
Seeing that Lu Youping didn't say anything, Liu pinched her handkerchief and started to cry: "Miss San, you can beat me or scold me behind closed doors, but in the palace, you two sisters are blood relatives and represent the Lu family. Mingzhu was punished by the Queen Mother, which is a loss of face for the Lu family. You are making it difficult for your father."
Yes, Lu Youping nodded heavily in his heart and looked at Lu Xiang with a condemning look. This is what he meant.
Lu Xiang sneered at Liu: "Madam Liu is really good at talking. Since you have said that Lu Mingzhu and I are sisters representing the Lu family, why did she want to frame me?"
Liu: "I said Mingzhu was afraid of saying the wrong thing."
"Oh, then I was so frightened by being wrongly accused that I forgot to ask for mercy."
Liu choked and stared at Lu Xiang with a trembling face, "You obviously did it on purpose. You watched him die without helping because you were at odds with Mingzhu. Mingzhu worked for Concubine Shu for the glory of the Lu family and hoped that the master would have a smooth career. And you, you knew that the master had just arrived in the capital and had made a lot of money. You had a mine and made a profit of a thousand taels, but you hid it from your father and split it with Qiao Jingru. The master loves you so much, you are so unfilial."
Lu Youping was shocked: "What? You have a mine?"
Profit of one thousand taels?
His daughter was making a fortune without telling him. What's more hateful is that she would rather give the money to her eldest son's wife than to him.
"Madam Liu is well-informed. You were able to dig out such a private matter of mine. It seems that the Lu family is not capable of inserting people there."
Oh, so he was waiting for her here.
Did Liu think that she could suppress her by exposing her secret?
Liu snorted and pointed at Lu Xiang righteously: "If you don't want others to know, then you better not do it. Why, you don't dare to admit it?"
Lu Xiang gave her a mocking look and said, "Why are you afraid to admit it? The mine is the legacy my mother left me. Is Aunt Liu jealous? Even if she is jealous, you have no right to be jealous."
"You..." Liu was so angry that she fell backwards. Lu Xiang's words were too shameless.
If I weren't jealous, could I have told the master about it?
The Lu family did not have a deep foundation, and this time Master Jingjin had spent a lot of money to deal with others. If Mingzhu had not been favored by Concubine Shu, some officials would not have given face to the master even if they had money. Therefore, Liu was sure that Lu Youping would be furious if he knew that Lu Xiang was rich but hid it from him.
By then, even if Lu Xiang is treated differently by the Queen, the Master will always have a thorn in his heart and will only want to use Lu Xiang.
The mine will also be taken away by the master by force. As long as the master gets the mine, half of the silver will go into her pocket.
That little bitch Lu Xiang deserves to have nothing. Everything in the Lu family belongs to her and her daughter.
"Your mother owns a mine, how come I didn't know about it?" Lu Youping asked.
Lu Xiang stared at Lu Youping indifferently, her beautiful eyes flickering with anger: "Father, you have been married to mother for so many years, don't you know that she has a mine to ask me? Then, may I ask, father, how much do you know about mother? How much do you know about her?"
Well……
Lu Youping was stunned and speechless. A gentle face emerged in his mind. Whenever she looked at him, she was always tender and affectionate. She managed the backyard for him and took care of his daily life, keeping everything in order.
She is gorgeous, well-educated, virtuous and capable...
But apart from that, Lu Youping discovered that he didn't know much about the Bai family.
"Ahem..." Lu Youping put his hand to his lips and coughed lightly: "No matter what, your mother is the mistress of the Lu family, so her things naturally belong to the Lu family." The implication is that you should hand over the mine.
Lu Xiang looked at Lu Youping in disbelief, with a meaningful look in his eyes: "Mom's things were her dowry at the beginning, and now they are left to me as dowry. Dad, is it appropriate for you to do this?"
Have some shame.
Lu Youping opened his mouth, embarrassed and almost didn't dare to look directly into Lu Xiang's pressing gaze. He also knew that it was not right for him to seize his deceased wife's dowry, but who could resist the temptation of a mine?
Liu gave Lu Xiang a sidelong glance and said sarcastically, "Miss Third is only a young girl, and you're already thinking about getting married. Don't forget that you're still being supported by the Lu family. Your things belong to the master, so it's only natural for you to take them out."
Lu Youping nodded hurriedly in his heart, it turned out that Liu understood him.
"Our family is now establishing itself in the capital. You are too young to manage the mine. You can leave it to Dad, and keep the rest of the dowry your mother left for you. When the mine is profitable, Dad will definitely prepare a generous dowry for you when you get married."
BANG——
As soon as Lu Youping finished speaking, a flower pot suddenly flew in from the door and hit his feet, and the fragments and soil splashed on Lu Youping and Liu. Then, the old lady ran in angrily, staring at the two of them with a murderous look.
"Leave it to you, you are so arrogant." The old lady pointed at Lu Youping and scolded him, "You have no ability at all, but you are thinking about your wife's dowry. Who gave you the face to study these crooked ways all day long when you have nothing to do after eating. Do you have any shame?"
Lu Youping's face turned red and his neck became thick after being scolded, and he couldn't utter a word.
Liu was also frightened by the old lady's anger. After she came to her senses, she hurriedly said, "Old lady, the master is also devoted to this family."
"Shut up." The old lady glared at Liu angrily and cursed, "The mine belongs to Xiangxiang. I don't know who dares to touch it. You may not be very capable, but you are very cunning. I know it was you who instigated it. You have evil thoughts and have also led Mingzhu astray. Look at the stupid things she did in the palace. You actually have the nerve to come and rob Xiangxiang's things. Who gave you the courage?"
Seeing the old lady's face livid and breathing heavily, Lu Xiang hurriedly patted her back to calm her down, "Grandma, calm down. It's not worth it to ruin yourself because of someone irrelevant."
An unrelated person, Mrs. Liu: "..." Damn old woman, Mingzhu has contributed so much to this family, but she scolds her for that bitch Lu Xiang.
Unrelated person 2 Lu Youping: "..."
Mom, just tell me the truth, am I your biological child?
