Chapter 107 Lu Yuanze Kneels
Lu Yuanze was so angry that he fainted.
The distinguished guests who originally attended the banquet were all proud of their status, and at most the news was circulated among a small number of people in the circle.
But Lu Chaochao's publicity became known to the whole city.
Ordinary people are most keen on gossip.
"Have you heard? Lord Lu is going to have a stroke!"
"Oh, what a big deal. I heard they were caught in the act by a guest at the first birthday party!"
"How shameless! That's my daughter's first birthday party!"
"Oh, there's something even more exciting. Do you remember the genius Lu Jinghuai who was famous all over Beijing? It turns out that he is Marquis Lu's biological son!"
"Mrs. Pei is Lord Lu's concubine!"
"Xu is the only daughter of the Xu family. She was raised as the apple of their eye. When Grand Tutor Xu said that Lu Yuanze was not a good match, Marquis Lu knelt in front of the door for three days and three nights. Xu went on a hunger strike and broke with her family before she got married."
"Although they broke up, when Xu got married, her dowry was so generous that it would make people jealous."
"It was probably because of the embarrassing incident back then that Lord Lu has not visited the Xu family for many years, and Xu, the idiot, has not returned to her parents' home either."
"Once, I even saw the imperial tutor, Grand Tutor Xu, standing at the corner and peeking at his daughter. How pitiful are the hearts of parents in the world."
“Oh, after paying such a high price, who knew Lord Lu would be such a person!”
"Lu Jinghuai and Lu Yanshu are of similar age. I'm afraid that when Marquis Lu was kneeling in front of the Xu family to propose marriage, he had already been secretly having an affair with his mistress." Everyone was talking about it. When Lu Yuanze heard the news, he vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted.
"Lu Jinghuai spent money like water. It turns out that he was squandering Xu's dowry. How shameless!"
"Later, they were sued by the Xu family, and the whole family sold everything they had to make up for the loss. Oh, where did they get the nerve to do such a thing in the Marquis' Mansion?"
Xu is such an innocent person.
Not only did she support the entire marquis's mansion, she also supported Marquis Lu's mistress and her family! !
The whole capital was cursing.
The Xu family came to the door at this moment.
Xu Yiting and his wife Zhou stood in front of the hall with frosty faces.
Lu Yuanze dragged his sick body out of bed, and as soon as he entered the room, he was kicked to the ground by Xu Yiting.
The Loyal and Brave Marquis had already been to the gates of hell, and now he was in so much pain that his mouth was filled with a sweet and fishy taste.
"What did you say when you proposed to Yunniang? Do you remember?" Xu Yiting was a scholar, but he paid great attention to maintenance. This punch made Lu Yuanze bleed from the mouth and nose.
When Xu Yiting rolled up his sleeves, it gave people a strong contrast.
"Damn it, how dare you betray her!!"
"She went on a hunger strike for you, hanged herself for you, and broke up with her family for you, all just to marry you! How dare you let her down?!" Xu Yiting's eyes were red. He had already found out that Lu Yuanze had a mistress, and now, he could finally take revenge!
Zhou hurriedly stepped forward to stop the fight: "Don't fight, talk nicely."
"Lord Lu, calm down."
"Husband, calm down too."
She grabbed Lu Yuanze's arm tightly and shouted at him to calm down.
Lu Yuanze was pulled into a fight by her and was weak at the moment, and was kicked twice.
He was kicked so hard that he flew out and hit the door frame with a bang, and his whole body curled up in pain.
"Son, my son!" The old lady heard the noise and ran over in a hurry.
Seeing his son curled up on the ground in pain, he cried for a doctor out of heartache.
"Xu's son, what do you mean?"
"How dare you come to the Marquis' Mansion and hurt someone!"
"Xu Shiyun is capable and can control men, so Yuanze won't go out and look for someone else!"
This made Xu Yiting even more furious.
Zhou pulled him and shook his head gently.
Although this old woman is a worthless person, she is an elder after all. If he takes action, the censor's memorial tomorrow will be enough to drive him away.
"Where's my sister?" Xu Yiting's eyes were deep, suppressing his anger.
As soon as he finished speaking, Dengzhi said, "Master, the lady was so angry yesterday that she fainted. Please move to Tingfeng Garden."
Oh, she's already here.
He deliberately waited until Lord Lu was beaten before appearing.
Xu Yiting followed the maids and servants to the backyard, and originally thought that his sister would cry sadly.
Who would have thought...
"This bluestone slab cost a lot of money, remember to pry it out and take it away."
"And the well in the backyard is buried."
"Not even the tables, chairs, or benches can be left behind." Xu was holding an account book and doing the clearing of accounts.
"By the way, all the beds in the house were bought by me." Xu was checking her expenses one by one.
Xu Yiting? ? ?
"Brother? Why are you here?" When Xu saw her brother, her eyes sparkled.
Xu Yiting still felt a little lost.
Once upon a time, my sister was spoiled and willful under their protection.
Now, he has been tortured into this state by Lu Yuanze!
It looks like he is going to kill everyone.
"If you don't come soon, I'm afraid you'll be eaten up. Fortunately, you're not stupid."
"Last night, the whole family was so angry that they couldn't sleep." Zhou walked up to her and pulled her affectionately.
I was very surprised to see that her face was rosy and she didn't look sad at all.
This sister-in-law has been spoiled since she was a child and is pampered to the skies in the Xu family. When he saw Lu Yuanze, he felt as if he was possessed by a demon.
Now that her eyesight has recovered, Zhou is happy.
"You finally woke up."
"It's good that you didn't get wronged. It's just right for you to go home with us."
Xu touched her face. Pei Jiaojiao was treated like a young girl when she was outside.
She had worked hard for the Marquis's Mansion for half her life, and even though she had taken good care of herself, she looked much older.
Seeing that she looked relaxed, Xu Yiting and his wife finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The two of them didn't stay for long, and just said, "Yunniang, the door of the Xu family is always open to you. We will always be a family." Zhou took her hand and said seriously.
Xu smiled and nodded.
After she sent her brother and sister-in-law away, the maid told the old lady to ask her to go to Deshan Hall.
Xu's face looked slightly cold.
At night, Xu walked through the corridor and came to the outside of Deshan Hall with the maids and servants.
Lu Yuanze and the old lady sat at the top.
Lu Yuanze looked embarrassed and seemed afraid to look her in the eye.
The old lady remained silent.
Lu Yuanze said softly: "Yunniang, now that things have come to this, it is me, Lu Yuanze, who is sorry for you."
Lu Yuanze stood up slowly.
"Yun Niang, I really love you. I don't want to hurt your feelings, so I have been keeping Pei Jiaojiao outside."
"Yunniang, can you take Jing Huai and Jing Yao under your name and make them your legitimate sons?"
"Jiaojiao is from a small family, not worthy of being the mistress of a marquisate."
Pei never thought that after this incident, every time Lu Yuanze saw her, he would think of what happened today. I thought I could kick out Xu and become the mistress of the marquis's mansion.
Unexpectedly, Lu Yuanze actually planned to leave her behind.
"Yunniang, Yanshu is paralyzed. Zhengyue has been a playboy for many years, and Yuanxiao is even more dull, not even half as good as Jinghuai."
"Jing Huai respects you and will definitely treat you as his biological mother."
"Can you keep him as your child and let him inherit the position of the eldest son of the Marquis' Mansion?" Lu Yuanze pleaded in a low voice.
Xu had no expression on his face.
Lu Yuanze gritted his teeth and sent the servants away.
With a plop.
Then he knelt down on the ground.
The old lady sat up straight abruptly, staring at Xu with eyes as sharp as blades.
"Yunniang, you and I have been married for eighteen years. Can you save me once and save the Marquis' Mansion once?"
"The Marquisate cannot be without an heir."
The old lady drooped her face and said gloomily, "He just made a mistake that all men in the world would make. He has already knelt down for you. What else do you want?"
