The old lady had just picked up a chopstick of red meat and was about to put it into Lu Zhiyuan's bowl. When she heard these words, her hand slipped and the meat fell on the table.
He immediately became furious and slammed the chopsticks in his hand on the table.
"There are no rules or regulations. Is this how you are taught on weekdays?"
The servants were so frightened that they fell to their knees on the ground, kowtowed and begged for mercy.
"Old madam, please spare your life. I realize my mistake."
The old lady took a deep breath and scolded her with a straight face.
"You better have something important to do, otherwise get out of the house!"
The servant trembled, and tremblingly told the story.
"Someone saw the third young lady entering the pavilion in the southwest corner of the backyard. The servants live there. They were afraid that some ignorant person would bump into the third young lady, so the person followed her, and then heard... heard something coming. Come……"
"What's the sound?" The old lady was annoyed.
The servant lowered his head and hesitated, not daring to answer. The old lady understood and threw the bowl in her hand.
"You bastard, if you don't change your ways, our Ning'an Marquis Mansion will be completely disgraced by her!"
She stood up and walked out angrily.
Lu Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment and then stood up.
The crowd went to the backyard in great force, and Li Xutang was at the end with a calm smile on his face.
She didn't sleep all night when she went back that day, and the mother-in-law who was waiting for her gave her an idea.
"I still bother you to think about a concubine. Even if you can save the third master, what if you can't save him yet?"
"She is unruly. If we get rid of her, the emperor will only reward her. It's not surprising that she said something to survive. Can the emperor not understand the twists and turns in this?"
Li Xutang stopped worrying and arranged a good show.
The lights were turned on in the backyard in advance, illuminating the dark pavilion.
Although it was not possible to clearly see the faces of the people in the pavilion, it was enough to see clearly what the two people inside were doing.
The two bodies were entangled together, and waves of obscene words reached the ears of people outside.
The old lady was so angry that her face turned green, and she ordered someone to bring the cage up.
"Just dip it in the pig cage and throw the body back to the Zhenguo Palace. Don't be an eyesore in front of me!"
The servant said that if Si Ning entered this pavilion, the person inside must be her.
The old lady had no doubts and gave the order without even asking anyone to take him out for a look.
She pulled Lu Zhiyuan back, and Jiang Linrou blocked Mrs. Lu's way, with a pleading look on her face.
"Mother, maybe there is some misunderstanding?"
Mrs. Lu's face darkened, and Li Xutang spoke for her at the right time.
"Sister-in-law, it was a misunderstanding last time, and it's still a misunderstanding this time. We can't treat her as a misunderstanding every time she steals, right?"
"For one thing or another, if Si Ning doesn't take our Ning'an Marquis Mansion seriously, do we have to keep swallowing our anger?"
"Where does this put the face of the Ning'an Marquis Mansion, and where does it put the face of the third brother!"
Everything went smoothly. Si Ning was finally eliminated. Li Xutang was in a good mood and was willing to talk to Jiang Linrou more.
Jiang Linrou choked and wanted to plead for Si Ning, but Mrs. Lu didn't give her the chance and walked forward past her.
Jiang Linrou still wanted to chase her, but Li Xutang stopped her.
"Sister-in-law, Si Ning won't survive. No one will see your heartfelt expression. Why bother?"
Seeing her face turn pale, her smile became even brighter.
"The Lu family is not what Si Ning said. Your wishful thinking was wrong."
After speaking, he winked at Jiang Linrou proudly and stepped up to catch up with the old lady.
Things went smoothly as never before, and Li Xutang felt that he could sleep well tonight.
She solved an eyesore and solved the trouble for the old lady. From now on, the Lu family will definitely belong to her.
He was so carried away that he didn't notice the sound of fighting not far away.
"who?"
Lu Zhiyuan was the first to notice something strange and raised his hand to protect the old lady behind him.
Such a big movement alerted the nursing staff, who all went to check the situation.
"Old madam, a man in black has broken into the house and is confronting the third young lady."
"Who are you talking about?" Li Xutang exclaimed.
The nurse didn't know why and repeated.
"The man in black has entered the house and is confronting the third young lady!"
Li Xutang was stunned on the spot.
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
Mrs. Lu was also stunned for a moment, and then scolded her.
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could the third young lady be over there?"
The guard raised his eyes and stared at the old lady hesitantly, at a loss.
The sounds of fighting got closer and closer, until they were in front of everyone, and everyone finally saw everything clearly.
If it wasn't Si Ning who was fighting with the man in black, who was it?
Si Ning was injured and seemed a little weak, but the man in black was ruthless at every turn.
The Lu family's nursing staff surrounded the two of them, but had no intention of stepping forward to help.
Si Ning took the time to scan the crowd and asked loudly.
"Mom, there was no frame-up, so she killed someone blatantly?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Old Mrs. Lu was confused at the moment, but she couldn't care less about Si Ning's life or death.
"Rescue this person quickly!"
For many things, you can do whatever you want behind the scenes, but you have to be restrained on the surface.
After receiving the order, the nursing staff rushed forward.
Someone helped distract the man in black and Si Ning escaped.
Panting heavily, she stepped aside and stared at the man in black who was being surrounded.
The man in black was not interested in fighting. He looked at his boss Ning and walked away.
The courtyard returned to calm, as if the vase hadn't been broken during the fight, as if nothing had happened.
Si Ning walked towards the old lady, bent down and said.
"Thank you, mother, for saving your life."
These words were sarcastic, and the old lady's face sank, but she still pretended not to understand and changed the subject.
"What's going on? Why are you here?"
At this moment, a sharp cry came from a distance, followed by the sound of the cage shaking.
"Help, I didn't, it was the Third Young Mistress, she hurt me, please let me go, let me go quickly..."
"I was wronged, please let me go..."
The sound moved from far away to near, until it reached the front.
There was a little maid in the cage with disheveled hair and red eyes holding on to the cage.
After seeing Si Ning, he stretched his fingers and pointed at Si Ning and roared.
"Si Ning, I have no enmity with you, why are you trying to harm me!"
Si Ning sneered. There was no grievance or hatred. If she hadn't noticed, she would be the one in the cage now.
Is this the same plot that Shen Qi is trying to do again because he is unwilling to give up?
She looked at Mrs. Lu with a half-smile and said calmly.
"Didn't my mother ask me why I'm here? Why don't you let her explain it to you?"
Mrs. Lu stared, and her sleeves were buttoned.
