Chapter 5
Lu Songli didn't think there was anything to talk about. It was obvious now that Zhao Yutan wanted the Xie family to take responsibility, and the Xie family didn't know if they really cared about what happened last night and had some complaints about her as a new daughter-in-law. For some other reasons, the Xie family had the idea of renouncing the engagement. Moreover, the Xie and Zhao families may have reached some consensus.
Is this not in the original book? Lu Songli looked at Xie Zhan thoughtfully. Xie Zhan noticed her gaze and looked at her calmly.
She guessed that the incident where the original owner and Zhao Yutan fell into the water last night and were rescued by each other's fiancé last night at Prince Gong's Mansion should not have happened in the book. Otherwise, the marriage between the hero, the heroine, and the supporting girl has gone through so many twists and turns, and the marriage is about to fall apart. How could my little cousin not mention it? This is not like my little cousin's style.
What Lu Songli didn't know was that all of this happened for a reason. It all happened because Zhao Yutan had a precognitive dream a few days ago, in which the two daughters got married successfully. She married into the Qin family, and Lu Songli married into the Xie family. Not long after she got married, the Qin family was convicted and exiled. Many people in her husband's family died on the way to exile, and she suffered a lot during her exile. But the lintel of the Xie family has always stood firm. Even though Lu Songli had nothing to do in her dream, the Xie family still let her sit firmly in the position of Madam Xie. After waking up, she was so distraught that she decided to take a different path this time and never go back to the old path!
And Zhao Yutan herself didn't know that she only dreamed half of the dream. She didn't dream of the second half at all, so she didn't know that her former husband's family was the final winner.
Lu Songli thought to herself, if this was a change, it would be interesting. She knows how powerful the butterfly effect is, but now everything has become uncontrollable. But she had a strong intuition that Xie Zhan and Zhao Yutan should get together in advance. Because she believes that there is always an inexplicable attraction between scumbag men and bitches.
At this point in the conversation, Mrs. Xie was not very satisfied, because the current progress was far from the results she wanted, but she couldn't push too hard. At any rate, the Lu family's attitude has been tested, and as expected, they are very resistant to the cancellation of the engagement.
Mrs. Xie didn't want to stay here anymore. She glanced at her son.
At this moment, Butler Chen from their Lu Mansion hurried in with two middle-aged men.
"What's going on?" Lu Desheng asked.
"Sir, it's the steward from the Xie family who said that if there is something urgent, please contact Mrs. Xie and Mr. Xie."
Mrs. Xie glanced doubtfully at the middle-aged man in Chu clothes next to her steward.
When Xie Zhan's eyes touched the two of them, he paused for a moment, thought for a moment and then said to the Lu family, "Since my family is here to look for me, I'm afraid there is something urgent at home, so uncle, aunt, Ali, my mother and I will leave first and come back next time." Nagging."
"Go back." Lu Desheng waved.
Although the conversation between the two families was not very pleasant, Lu's father and Lu's mother saw that the stewards of the Xie family had come, and they could understand the Xie family's mother and son's eagerness to go home immediately without asking what happened. I don't ask, it's just because it's a family matter and it's not convenient to mention it outside, which is quite normal.
"Wait!" Lu Songli stopped the person and stared at the middle-aged man in Chu clothes.
Xie Zhan looked back, saw her reaction, and moved his steps slightly, just blocking her view of the middle-aged man in Chu Yi, "Is there anything else that can happen to Ah Li?"
"The uncle on the left is not the manager of your Xie Mansion, is he?" Lu Songli said with a half-smile.
The original owner had a good relationship with Zhao Yutan, who often invited her to play at home, so she was relatively familiar with the personnel of the Zhao family. As soon as this middle-aged man in Chu clothes appeared, she felt familiar. Furthermore, if the Xie family had something urgent and sent someone to call Xie Zhan and his son, they wouldn't come to take care of things at the same time.
At this point, when Lu Songli called the person to stop, Lu Desheng and his wife also realized it. Yes, they were wondering just now, but they didn't think much about it. Of course, it's okay for the manager to bring an errand boy, but the age of the man in Chu clothes doesn't look like he could be an errand boy.
Meeting Lu Songli's eyes, Xie Zhan felt a headache. At the same time, I also felt puzzled, when did his fiancée become so sharp? Hasn't she always been timid and quiet? He also spoke in a very aggressive manner, as if he was carrying a knife, which made people extremely uncomfortable.
At this moment, Mrs. Xie also realized that something was wrong.
"What's going on?" Lu Desheng squinted his eyes and looked at the middle-aged man in Chu clothes.
Before Xie Zhan could respond, the middle-aged man in Chu clothes knelt down in the direction of Xie Zhan and Mrs. Xie, pleading, "Mr. Xie, please go and see our eldest lady. , our lady committed suicide just now, wuwu..."
Hearing this, Lu Desheng stood up and said, "Are you from the Zhao family?"
"You said Zhao Yutan committed suicide? Is he dead?" Jiang asked directly.
Lu Songli had expected it, and even after hearing this, he sat on the chair calmly.
The middle-aged man in Chu Yi said dissatisfiedly, "Mrs. Lu, why are you so vicious? Your Lu family just hopes that something will happen to my eldest lady, right?!"
Snapped! Lu Songli stepped forward and gave the man a slap in the face, "How shameless! Who gave you the courage to come to my Lu family and act wild?!"
The scene suddenly fell silent, and everyone was stunned by her domineering behavior. Even the middle-aged man who was beaten was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, he immediately looked at Lu Songli fiercely.
Lu Desheng stepped forward and knocked the person down with his kick, "Here comes someone!"
The commotion in the flower hall was so loud that servants had been waiting at the door for a long time. Now that the master gave the order, they immediately stepped forward to restrain the man.
Xie Zhan suddenly had a headache.
Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Jiang, was the first to come to her senses, regain her composure, and asked the middle-aged man, "Just tell me whether she is dead or not?!"
Lu Songli said to her heart, Mom, she is definitely not dead. But she didn't expect that the Zhao family was so shameless that they would dance in front of her, their real fiancée.
The middle-aged man didn't want to answer.
"Is Zhao Yutan okay?" This person never got to the point, and Mrs. Xie became impatient.
The middle-aged man lowered his head and replied, "Fortunately, we found him early, rescued him, and called the doctor, but he hasn't woken up yet. The doctor said that the eldest lady is so terrified that she wants to die. The situation is very critical. Our master and his wife are in critical condition." I would like to ask Mr. Xie to come over and see our eldest lady, maybe..."
Snapped! A cup was thrown directly at the middle-aged man, but he turned his head to avoid it and only grazed his scalp. Then it fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
After Lu Desheng smashed the cup, he pointed at the door and said to these outsiders, "The Zhao family is too bullying! Get out of here, get out of here!"
Xie Zhan sighed and said, "Uncle and aunt, let's say goodbye first. Mom, let's go."
Mrs. Xie moved her mouth, then sighed and took the lead to step out.
The Lu family turned a blind eye to this, and Manager Chen even went to see off the guests.
All in all, the meeting was unpleasant and the two sides broke up on bad terms.
