The more Lu Xinran thought about it, the happier she became. She had already imagined the happy scenery of following Pei and the others all the way south.
As he pursed his lips and snickered, he raised his head and met Lu Kande's sinister gaze.
She twisted her body to avoid the slap from the other party.
[Who dares to attack me? A grown man actually beats his daughter! I just say that this kind of scum has no moral bottom line. 】
The more she cursed in her heart, the angrier Lu Kangde became.
"It's the root of the chaos, the root of the chaos, and you shouldn't be taken back."
Without this dead girl, my mother would not have been bewitched and would not have left the house with her dowry regardless.
Lu Xinran took two steps back, fearing that he would slap her again shamelessly.
She frowned and looked at him, "Why did my father say that? My daughter doesn't know why she wears such a big hat."
[The faces of those with vested interests are always so ugly. Instead of looking for the reasons themselves, they will only shift the blame to others. 】
Her face was no longer as well-behaved as it had always been, and aloofness and indifference emanated from her brows.
Meeting Lu Kangde's hateful eyes, he suddenly laughed.
"My name has not been included in your Lu family's genealogy, and there is not enough evidence to prove that I am a child of the Lu family. I will not climb the high branches of the Lu family."
She turned around, bypassed Lu Kangde and went straight into the courtyard.
"Grandma, are you willing to take me in and take me with you after you leave the house?"
Mrs. Pei smiled and raised his hands to smooth her messy hair: "What nonsense are you talking about? Of course we are family members. Wherever I am, you will be."
The words "love and care for family" made Lu Xinran laugh instantly, knowing that her grandmother understood her best.
"Old madam, the carriage is ready. Do you want to take the dowry out now?"
In the chaos, Nanny Xu ignored Lu Jinchuan's murderous gaze and stepped forward to ask softly.
Mrs. Pei nodded: "Go ahead and name all the servants I brought with me."
"Can't lift it!"
Lu Jinchuan grabbed Lu Kangping and pushed him to Pei's side.
"Don't you think about them and Qingyi?"
【For your own sake? Is your father a dead person? Only a mother needs to think about her children, why don’t you? 】
[These are disgusting remarks that I could spit out even after dinner. 】
Lu Xinran complained in her heart and rolled her eyes.
[Since I can't bear to let my concubines suffer, I should go to the palace to ask them for a royal decree, and then invite guests to a banquet to give them equal wives. Oh, no, if my grandmother leaves them, they can become their wives. 】
[When the time comes, you will be the first person in the capital to force away his wife and rehabilitate his concubines. You are so beautiful, affectionate, and righteous, and the emperor will reward you for being a real one. 】
The smile in Pei's eyes grew wider and wider. She took Lu Xinran's hand and led him behind her.
"Okay, don't mention these meaningless things. If you are willing to take care of Qingyi, go and see him. If you are too lazy, just pretend that you don't have this daughter. Anyway, if I am mad to death, it will be the same situation. Let her treat her as my daughter. Just get pissed off."
Lu Jinchuan rolled his sleeves in anger when he saw that their grandfather and grandson were not enjoying themselves.
"Okay, okay, I want to see if you can really leave Dingkang Houfu and the children behind!"
Ms. Pei rolled her eyes and said, "Where is the person? Ask the companion to move it and go through the front door. I carried it in through the front door. I also used the front door when I left."
Nanny Xu responded and called for help to lift the boxes and cages one by one towards the main entrance.
Lu Xinran turned around and looked into the room, and saw Lu Xinlan looking sideways and hurriedly waving.
"Grandma is in poor health. I don't know as much as you do. Why don't you stay with grandma and fulfill your filial piety?"
Lu Xinlan stood up and walked to Mrs. Pei's side, gently holding her arm: "Grandma, Dr. Tian has always said that you should pay attention to your recuperation. Over the years, your liver qi has been stagnated and you have become sick due to overwork. You can't get angry and don't let your emotions fluctuate too much."
"So, mother, why do you have to do this? Isn't it a good idea to take good care of your body at home and take care of yourself for the rest of your life?"
When Lu Kangde heard Lu Xinlan's words, he thought she was trying to smooth things over, so he waved his sleeves and strode forward to accuse her.
Lu Xinran was really speechless, [What's his tone? If you talk to your biological mother like this, you are not afraid that the censor will accuse her of being unfilial, and the book will be read into the dog's belly? 】
[And whether he really doesn’t understand or he pretends not to understand. Lu Xinlan’s words are obviously because his grandmother is in poor health. As long as he has a great sense of filial piety, he should be considerate of his mother and stop talking nonsense. 】
[Hey, it’s really not worth it for my grandmother. It’s better to raise a piece of barbecued pork than raising him. 】
"Grandma, my granddaughter knows a recipe for recuperating the body. When we settle down, my granddaughter will definitely honor you."
Mrs. Pei smiled and patted the back of her hand. Without looking at the father and son who were going crazy with anger, he led the two sisters out of the hospital.
"I have a villa outside the city. Let's rest there for a few months. When the weather cools down, we can take a car and go south. I heard that the winter scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is also very beautiful. Let's go and see it. "
The three of them walked further and further away, and the chief steward ran in in a panic.
"Master, there are many people gathered outside our house, and they are all asking about what happened in the house."
Lu Jinchuan looked at the dowries that were still being carried out in boxes, and his proud eyes finally fell on the two concubines who were slumped on the ground and crying.
He just wanted to give them some respect so that they and their children and grandchildren could live a more decent life a hundred years from now.
Why can't she tolerate them?
As a woman, she doesn't abide by women's virtues and wants to force him to reconcile with her!
"Father!"
Seeing that he could not persuade Mr. Pei to change his mind, Lu Kangde could only stride forward and look at Lu Jinchuan pleadingly.
They are just a few servants, why bother making such a fuss?
Lu Jinchuan gave him a disgusted look, useless thing!
His stomach was throbbing with pain. He raised his hand and rubbed it again and again. The more he rubbed it, the harder it became to swallow.
But he had to admit that if Mr. Pei really wanted to sink the boat, all he could do was compromise.
He... couldn't afford to lose the face of having to make peace at such a young age.
Determined, he stalked after him.
"Stop! Count the people in the mansion as you please."
The tone of giving made Ms. Pei almost laugh angrily. She turned back and glanced at him with caring eyes.
"This was the price before, but now it has changed!"
"Pei Mingyue, don't go too far!"
"Excessive? You've been going too far for decades, but I've been going too far for only half a day and you can't stand it anymore? You just have to be shameless if you're angry. As long as you're not afraid of the censor's tricks, you'll be invincible."
Mrs. Pei imitated Lu Xinran's tone, and felt extremely happy after finishing her words.
Lu Xinran praised her crazily in her heart. This was how she should be. She shouldn't save face for a scumbag. It's not like she couldn't support herself without a dowry, so why should she suffer this injustice.
Lu Jinchuan glared at her. This kind of evildoer who was messing with the family might as well be sent to the palace!
Wait until he stabilizes Ms. Pei before dealing with her!
"What else do you want?"
"Gongzhong's shops, fields, and Zhuangzi were all returned to my hands in large quantities."
"Pei Mingyue!"
"Don't yell at me. It makes you look very arrogant. Everyone in the house is watching. It will probably spread all over the capital in a day."
Mrs. Pei looked at him with a slow smile, waiting leisurely for him to compromise.
Lu Jinchuan's eyes went dark: "Okay!"
He still has private property, and at worst he will use it to subsidize his two aunts and children.
Mrs. Pei nodded with satisfaction: "Set up written evidence and press fingerprints. If you go back on your promise, I will have to reorganize the dowry, which will be very troublesome."
"Come to the study with me!"
After squeezing out these words between his teeth, he immediately turned around and walked towards the study room in the front yard, fearing that Mrs. Pei would make other demands again.
Before they had even gone a few steps, the butler ran over again in panic.
"Master, what's wrong, Third Master, he got into a fight with the young master from Uncle Zhongqin's residence in Zuichun Tower."
The third master, Lu Kanghe, was the bastard son of Aunt Wang.
Lu Xinran quickly flipped through the booklet and discovered that Lu Kanghe was Lu Jinchuan's most beloved son.
[Tsk, tsk, tsk, the retribution for doting on a concubine and destroying your wife has come. Let’s see if you still have the nerve to threaten your grandmother with Dingkanghou’s affairs. 】
