Chapter 67
"Madam, do you want me to go to Yushou Hall to inquire? There are so many people in the old lady's yard, and there are always one or two who are not serious about it."
Zhuqing was ready to make a move and wished he could go to Yushou Tangli now to inquire about the situation.
Lin Yunwan shook her head: "It's a very important matter, and the old lady won't be unprepared. You won't be able to find out anything."
She told Zhu Qing: "You can go and see what the old lady does with her in the end. If her name is decided today, she may have to move in with you, and you will live in the same courtyard from now on."
Zhu Qing laughed and said, "That would be great. From now on, I can help Madam take care of herself in the morning and dusk, and I will have someone to keep me company."
Lin Yunwan smiled faintly: "Go ahead."
Zhuqing nodded.
She did not go to Yushou Hall first, but went to the kitchen first and asked for a bowl of soothing soup.
The maid holding the decoction asked curiously: "Auntie, you are not sick. What do you need this decoction for?"
Zhu Qing glanced at her and said, "Use your head and think about what we are going to do now. If we are discovered, there is an explanation."
The master and the servant went to Yushou Hall together.
"Bitch!"
Mrs. Lu regained her composure after being half-conscious. Without saying a word, she got up from the bed and gave Ge Baoer a slap in the face.
"ah……"
Ge Baoer fell to the ground, and the slap mark on his face suddenly swelled half an inch.
Yan's mother didn't care about her, and hurriedly went over to help Mrs. Lu and persuaded: "Old madam, please stop being angry."
Lu Zhengliu also came over to give him a hand.
He pursed his lips tightly, not daring to say anything. After enduring it for a long time, he whispered: "Grandma, please sit down first."
How could she still sit still!
Mrs. Lu pulled Lu Zhengliu's collar and asked excitedly: "Tell me, do you know that she is a slave of a sinner? Did she lie to you, or did you already know it and hide it from me with her?"
Lu Zhengliu lowered his head and could not speak.
Yan's mother urged: "Your Majesty, it's now time, please stop protecting her! Just say whatever you want!"
Lu Zhengliu said: "Grandma, I know, but..."
But he didn't mean to deceive his grandmother. It had been so long that he didn't take it to heart.
When things were revealed again, he realized that he shouldn't forget.
Mrs. Lu had no power to scold them anymore and didn't want to listen anymore.
She waved her hand: "Let's all go, all of you, let's go!"
"Since you want to take her as your concubine, it's up to you. However, our Lu family can afford to keep a cheap concubine."
"Whether you want to destroy the Lu family or annihilate it from now on, it's up to you."
Lu Zhengliu knelt down and kowtowed on the ground.
When Yan's mother saw that his head was red on the ground, she shouted in surprise and tugged on Mrs. Lu's sleeve: "Old madam, the prince must know that he is wrong. Don't be angry."
Mrs. Lu said sadly: "He dared to hide everything from me! If Yun Wan hadn't mentioned it, I would never have imagined that he was so brave and dared to harbor the slaves of the sinner family!"
"How did the Lu family emerge from the turmoil seven years ago? How dare he do such a thing!"
Yan's mother said nothing to persuade her, but forget it if it comes from someone else's family. The Lu family really can't stand such trouble.
Seeing that the old lady could not survive without rest.
She walked up to Lu Zhengliu and said, "Your Majesty, my cousin's marriage has been 'retired' and her status has been decided. You and her should leave first. There are old slaves here to take care of you. Don't worry."
"Thank you, Mama Yan."
Lu Zhengliu stood up. He originally wanted to leave, but he walked up to Ge Baoer, his eyes like daggers: "You are already my aunt, why don't you leave?"
The tone was cold and cold, harsher than a knife.
When Ge Baoer raised her head, she seemed not to recognize him like this!
When she followed her out slowly, Lu Zhengliu had disappeared.
Yan's mother closed the door and served Mrs. Lu to take medicine. She waited until she calmed down before she dared to continue talking about Ge Baoer.
"Since my cousin was freed from slavery before the family was exiled, she can be considered free."
"Although she lost her body deed, it cannot prove that she redeemed her body, but everyone in the village knows that her adoptive father and mother redeemed her body. In fact, if someone can confirm it, it doesn't matter if more than ten years have passed."
Mrs. Lu sighed and said, "It doesn't matter if we get to the bottom of it. I'm really angry that he kept it from me."
So when Yan's mother's son heard that Ge Bao'er was abducted to Liyang by a prostitute when he was a child, he once worked as a maid in an official's family. That family was later exiled for committing crimes. Ge Bao'er was almost a slave of the criminal's family.
She fainted from fright.
Yan's mother said: "The prince didn't mean to hide it from you. If she hadn't been freed from slavery, the prince wouldn't have dared not tell her."
Mrs. Lu closed her eyes.
Yan's mother continued: "Speaking of it, she has been capable since she was a child. There are many girls in the family, but her adoptive parents tried every means to buy her back."
"He also worked hard to raise her and loved her as if she were his own daughter."
"She met our prince again in Liyang. I don't know how lucky she is."
Mrs. Lu sneered and said: "I have been a fox since I was a child! Who knows what method was used to confuse that old couple!"
Yan’s mother smiled.
She disagreed with the old lady's view. It was not a bad thing that Ge Baoer could find a way to escape from slavery at such a young age.
Human beings, if they weren’t forced by life, who would want to be a slave?
If it weren't for the future of her son and grandson, she wouldn't be a slave now.
Mrs. Lu sighed: "It's such a blessing to be able to marry Yun Wan. From now on, I have to listen to Yun Wan more about everything in the family."
"The old slave also thinks that Madam is very far-sighted. You can rest assured that you can leave everything at home to Madam."
Mrs. Lu nodded and said, "Ge Baoer's body deed has disappeared. We should be careful of anyone making a fuss about this matter in the future. The Lu family will never take on this trouble for her."
"I asked her to sign a new contract and become a concubine, but she had nothing to say. From now on, she will be beaten, scolded, disposed of, expelled and sold at will, but it will be at the pleasure of the mistress."
Yan's mother said: "From now on, her life and death will be in Madam's hands. She will never make any mistakes again. You can rest assured."
Mrs. Lu was really tired, so she nodded and didn't want to talk anymore.
She pushed the medicine bowl away and said, "I don't want to drink this medicine anymore. Take it out."
"Old slave, take it to the kitchen and heat it up. You still have to drink it when you want to drink it. You will be better soon if you listen to the doctor's advice."
After a big fuss, Mrs. Lu was tired and wanted to go inside to rest.
But before going to bed, she did not forget to tell Yan's mother: "Brother Qing has finished class and asked him to come over. If it weren't for Brother Qing, nothing would have happened to her. She was the one who instigated Brother Qing. I can't You can’t be soft-hearted anymore!”
"yes."
Yan's mother said to herself that the old lady was right this time, Brother Qing was the source of Ge Baoer's audacity!
She walked to the corridor with the medicine bowl in hand, looking for a maid to come in to serve the old lady. At a glance, she saw Zhu Qing outside, followed by the maid.
"Auntie, what are you doing standing outside? Did the old lady tell you?"
Yan’s mother scolded Zhu Qing very severely.
Zhu Qing smiled good-naturedly and said: "I heard that the old lady has not been able to sleep well recently. After discussing with the madam, I asked the kitchen to cook a bowl of soothing soup for the old lady."
She motioned to the girl to bring the medicine over.
The girl was so frightened that she lowered her head and did not dare to look at Yan's mother.
Zhu Qing smiled, not feeling guilty at all.
When Yan's mother heard what Lin Yunwan meant, she was half worried and half happy. Her face looked better and said, "The old lady doesn't take medicine now and has rested. Auntie, please take it back."
"good."
Zhuqing Fushen said: "I'm going to retire."
Yan's mother warned her: "No matter what you hear, watch your mouth! If my aunt says something you shouldn't say, watch your tongue."
Zhuqing looked confused: "Mother Yan, what are you talking about? What did I hear?"
Yan's mother walked away with a cold expression.
Zhuqing hurried to Chuisi Hall.
