Chapter 84 The Heartbreaking Part is Here
"Forget it, the prince has worked so hard to train this person, so he should keep him for himself."
Gu Ruanci rejected Lu Enyan's kindness. With Changsong by her side, she was safe enough.
Lu Enyan did not insist and took all the things Gu Ruanci gave him with him when he left.
"County Lady, it's time for us to go back." Nong Chun reminded.
Gu Ruanci nodded and said, "Well, that's fine."
As a result, as soon as they came out of the private room, they met Lu Wenxue and Lu Ennan who were going upstairs.
"Gu Ruanci, why are you here?"
"I'm here to buy materials and look at jewelry. Do you believe me?"
Gu Ruanci found it interesting that Lu Wenxue would immediately become hostile every time she saw her.
"This is a restaurant. Who would believe you would do those things instead of eating here?"
Lu Wenxue had just finished speaking when she seemed to realize that Gu Ruanci was deliberately choking her.
"Gu Ruanci, you're such a boring person, and you have no conscience. Today is your grandmother's funeral, and you didn't even show up. No matter what happened back then, don't you know that the dead are greater?"
Lu Wenxue's voice quickly attracted a group of people to watch.
They didn't expect that so many prominent figures would appear in this small restaurant.
Gu Ruanci and Lu Enyan both came in concealing their identities, but Lu Wenxue did not.
"Are you going to tell this to the three Zhou brothers?" Gu Ruanci asked seriously.
Lu Wenxue was stunned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Their biological mother has passed away, and her memorial tablet is at the Xuan Di Temple. Why didn't you tell them that the dead are the most important, and asked them to kowtow every step of the way to the Xuan Di Temple to apologize to my mother? Didn't you think of coming? You are such a shameless person, telling me here that the dead are the most important. What's the most important thing?"
Gu Runci has always refused to give Lu Wenxue any face, and it's also Lu Wenxue's fault that she always wants to provoke Gu Runci.
Lu Ennan, who was standing by, saw the two arguing, and his sister was clearly at a disadvantage. He quickly said with a smile, "This has nothing to do with the Chaoyang County Princess. My sister just attended a funeral and was moved by the Zhou family crying so hard. She didn't pay attention to these complicated relationships. I apologize to you on her behalf."
He is graceful and elegant in every gesture.
This behavior and words won praise from all the onlookers.
"The Second Young Master is sensible. We really can't force the Princess Chaoyang into doing this."
"But the person is already dead. It seems unnecessary to pursue past grudges."
Gu Ruanci naturally didn't take other people's comments to heart.
"Thank you for your hard work, Second Young Master. You have a sister like this, who talks nonsense all day long and has a mouth that begs for slaps, and you have to apologize constantly. Fortunately, she is the prince's daughter. If she were an ordinary family, I'm afraid she would have had her tongue cut out or been given a bowl of mute medicine, so that she would have a mouth full of teeth and would not speak a single word."
Gu Ruanci still did not give up attacking Lu Wenxue, which made Lu Wenxue even more angry.
Lu Ennan stopped her, but he maintained his previous elegance: "County Lady Chaoyang, you are too kind. Although my sister is willful, she has never really hurt anyone."
"Is that so? Second Young Master, you're trying to say that the fact that Miss Lian hasn't been able to participate in the Douyinlu (Music Competition) for two consecutive years has nothing to do with County Master Mingyue, right? What kind of good person would play hide-and-seek with someone catching a red-hot wire? Is that how you play in your palace?"
After Gu Ruanci finished speaking, Lu Ennan did not break down and still had a standard smile on his face.
"This matter is somewhat different from what we know, so I can't answer the county lady's question right away."
Gu Ruanci walked straight past them, not wanting to say any nonsense to them.
"Did I let you go?" Lu Wenxue once again felt that she had not performed well.
Gu Ruanci stopped and turned to look at her: "On what basis does County Master Mingyue think I should listen to you?"
Lu Ennan stopped Lu Wenxue again and said to Gu Ruanci, "County Lady, I won't see you off."
"I appreciate your kindness. Second Young Master, please continue teaching your sister who was sold and is still helping others count money."
When Lu Wenxue heard her mocking him, she shouted, "I, Great Yao, ruled the world with filial piety. When your grandmother passed away, not only did you not go to offer condolences, but you also hid here to watch the joke. You are truly a heinous crime."
A figure floated over from somewhere and appeared in front of Lu Wenxue in an instant.
There was only a "pop" sound, followed by Lu Wenxue's panicked scream. Then she fell to the ground, covering her face, not knowing what had happened.
"Who hit me? Get out here!"
Gu Ruanci already knew that it was Lu Enyan who had returned.
Probably after he left, he saw his two younger brothers and sisters enter the restaurant.
"Lu Wenxue, you don't seem to remember what I said to you before."
Sure enough, Lu Enyan appeared at the stairs, accompanied by the guard who had just slapped Lu Wenxue in the face.
Lu Wenxue wilted at that moment, and Lu Ennan's calm face also looked a little flustered.
"Brother, you are here too..."
"Apologize to Princess Chaoyang and go back to Prince Duan's Mansion."
It was the same words again. Lu Wenxue was reluctant, but she still did it.
In the end, Lu Ennan didn't say anything else and went back with the aggrieved Lu Wenxue.
Gu Ruanci did not communicate with Lu Enyan anymore, and returned home as if nothing had happened.
"Did Lu Wenxue get infected by the dog? Why does she always want to bite people?" Gu Yuxuan was very angry after hearing this.
"Anyway, she can't bite me, and she's the one who gets embarrassed every time." Gu Ruanci looked calm and composed, and was already planning the gift she would give to the Zhou family in two days.
As for Lu Wenxue, she was not worth her while.
Two days later, it was the third day of Madam Zhang's burial. Zhou's father and son got up early, went to the grave to burn paper and put up the beams for Madam Zhang, and also started digging the ground. After a long period of discomfort, they returned home.
As a result, a strange thing happened in the city and reached the ears of the Zhou family.
"What's all the buzz out there?"
Zhou Zhili has been exhausted these past two days and has to take care of the whole family. He is afraid that he will miss something important and delay the children's future.
The servant went to investigate and came back to report: "My Lord, a man selling fake medicine in the city fell into the river and drowned while resisting arrest..."
Zhou Zhili reluctantly became interested and asked, "What fake medicine?"
The servant continued, "It seems to be some kind of funeral powder. It was originally meant to give the dying the energy to calmly deal with their affairs. However, I heard that the prescription was developed by the Little Medical Immortal. He didn't have the complete formula, so he added other ingredients to it. The person who takes it can indeed regain their spirits for a short time, but then they will fall into a state of pain like shattering bones all over their body, and then they will enter a state of suspended animation..."
Every time he said something, the Zhou family became more shocked.
Especially the last sentence, the suspended animation state...
