The plaque of the Lu Mansion hangs high and is not stained by dust.
Lu Xinlan rarely looked up after getting off the car. The huge Lu Mansion... didn't look like a doghouse!
In Zhaoyun Courtyard, Mrs. Pei immediately sat up energetically when she heard the news that her granddaughters had returned home.
"Old lady."
Nanny Xu hurriedly stepped forward to help her lie back down, but she blocked her outstretched hand.
"After lying there for several days, my bones became soft."
When the two sisters entered the door, they saw Mrs. Pei sitting on the soft couch, fully clothed. Although her face was a little gloomy, she was in excellent spirits.
[Hey, grandma is not sick! 】
[The old scumbag wanted to use money to make money for Lu Kanghe, so he asked his grandmother to get him some money, but she refused to give him a penny. The old scumbag was so angry that he walked away. The grandmother hid the keys to the warehouse and then fell ill. 】
[Hahahaha, that’s how it should be when you’re sick. Why does this old scumbag lose his head when he encounters something related to his aunt and his concubine’s son? 】
[Song Jun was the presiding judge in this case and had his name with the emperor. How could he make money even if he got the money? 】
[No, he shouldn't be that stupid. He obviously wants to take the opportunity to get money to supplement his Aunt Wang! 】
[Bah, that’s disgusting. A young man is still planning on his first wife like this, and he’s not afraid of losing his life. 】
Lu Jinchuan, who came from the study when he heard that they were returning home, heard the next few words as soon as he entered the courtyard.
His old face turned red and anger surged up. As soon as the curse words came to his mouth, he thought of the beatings the emperor had given him in the past few days.
Eighty years old!
As a grandfather, he will not live to be eighty years old, so he has to take her mood into consideration and ensure that she can live to be eighty years old!
Lu Jinchuan was so angry when he thought of this unreasonable request that he wanted to curse, but the three people in the room looked up, none of them had any respect in their eyes.
[Why did the old scumbag come so quickly! Didn't he think that since we were back, we could help him open his mouth to ask for money from his grandmother? 】
[No, no, I just saw it wrong. Lu Kanghe and Ma Wenang smashed a lot of furnishings and furniture in Zuichun Building. The madam asked them to pay five thousand taels of silver. 】
[He and Wang Jianbai each paid half of this money, but when he came back he asked for five thousand taels, and prepared the rest to supplement Aunt Wang's income and compensate for the lack of income from the Gongzhong shop and farm. 】
[Don’t he have private property in his hands? There are obviously seven thousand taels of silver notes in the study. How can you have the nerve to ask your grandmother for such embarrassing silver? 】
[Oh, I saw it. He knew that Lu Kanghe was going to be exiled. He planned to use the money to manage things along the way. He also planned to buy him property in the northwest so that he could live more comfortably. 】
All his little thoughts were revealed and spread out in front of Pei. Lu Jinchuan faced Pei's fiery gaze and touched his nose.
Lu Xinlan looked with her eyes, nose and heart. She felt that what Lu Xinran said was right. Their grandfather had really been brought down.
Otherwise, why would a second-rank official with a house full of children and grandchildren still worry about giving benefits to his concubines and concubines every day?
[No, I'm going to be pissed to death. The old scumbag and that Aunt Wang are going to disgust me to death. It's over, it's over, I'm going to lose my life. 】
Lu Jinchuan: "?!!"
What nonsense!
Even if he was partial to his concubine, he would not allow her to comment on it. It was enough for her not to avoid the affairs of her elders. Actually, it actually seriously shortened her life!
After cursing in her heart, she felt a little better. She moved her eyes downwards and saw a line of words on the pamphlet, which immediately made her eyes light up.
She stood up and bowed respectfully to Lu Jinchuan: "Grandpa, my grandma has Qi deficiency and blood stasis. The imperial doctor asked grandma to rest more and work less. It's best to use more nourishing medicine.
"Smooth and nourishing sea cucumbers and bird's nests are most suitable for grandma. When my granddaughter first came in, she heard someone say that you had just brought back top-quality sea cucumbers and bird's nests from Baoshantang the day before yesterday.
"You must have given these to grandma. My sister and I went to the front yard to get them. We cooked them for grandma ourselves, which is considered as a filial piety. I hope grandpa will fulfill his wish."
Lu Jinchuan gritted his teeth. He had specially asked people to find these sea cucumbers and bird's nests to replenish Aunt Wang's health.
He'er was harmed by an adulterer, and he was unable to protect him, nor could he protect his mother.
[It’s just some bird’s nest and sea cucumber. Isn’t the old scumbag really so reluctant to part with it? 】
[What on earth did Aunt Wang do to him to make him dizzy and look like an idiot just thinking about their mother and son? 】
[No, I must find an opportunity to explore Aunt Wang’s background and see how she held the old scumbag tightly. 】
Just as he was planning to visit Aunt Wang's courtyard, he heard a few words squeezed out from between his teeth by Lu Jinchuan.
"It's rare for you to be so filial. I'll have the supplements delivered to you in a moment."
"Xinran thanked my grandfather on behalf of my grandmother."
Knowing that he wouldn't get any advantage if he stayed any longer, Lu Jinchuan glanced at Mr. Pei a few times with a cold face, then turned around and strode away without saying another word.
As soon as he left, Lu Xinran laughed in her heart.
[The old scumbag's expression just now could open a dyeing shop. He's going to be mad to death, right? 】
Pei and Lu Xinlan looked at each other, and both held up their handkerchiefs to cover their lips.
Knowing that Mr. Pei was not really ill, both of them felt relieved.
The three of them talked again, and it wasn't until Lu Jinchuan brought sea cucumbers and bird's nests that the two sisters left Zhaoyun Yuan.
"Sister, do you think we should find an opportunity to see Aunt Wang, whom my grandfather is particularly precious to?"
She was extremely curious about Aunt Wang now. Unfortunately, when Aunt Wang and Aunt Jin came to stir up trouble a few days ago, her attention was focused on Lu Jinchuan and she forgot to look at their melons.
"There's no rush. Once grandma recovers, we'll go visit her with her."
Pei's illness was feigned, but Aunt Wang's illness was real.
The son was imprisoned for murder, and he would be exiled even if he didn't behead him.
It is said that Aunt Wang, who was weak and delicate, was so frightened that she fainted on the spot. After that, she cried every day and was unable to get up.
"Okay, I hope that with our filial piety, my grandmother can recover soon."
The two sisters smiled at each other and separated at the fork in the road.
Lu Xinlan watched her figure disappear on the path, then turned back to Pei's yard.
Mrs. Pei had already been given tea, melons and fruits, and was ready to eat while listening to everything that happened in the palace.
"Looking at it this way, Your Majesty should have chosen to keep girl Xinran."
"My granddaughter also guessed the same thing."
Lu Xinlan's heart has been like a roller coaster these days, with ups and downs, and now she can finally land safely.
"Grandfather is so patient today, maybe he is following His Majesty's instructions."
The word "instruction" is used euphemistically, but to put it more bluntly, it means "beating".
Mrs. Pei chuckled: "It's time for this old guy to suffer some hardships. Girl Xinran wants to go to Aunt Wang's courtyard to watch the fun, right? Let's go tomorrow!"
They will go there when the old man goes to court!
