Chapter 114
"She is a scoundrel who plotted to kill the mistress. She should be strangled to death."
This is what Lu Zhengliu meant.
He didn't know why, but his tone was still cold, but it was different from before. It seems like nothing matters anymore.
Mrs. Lu didn't dare to have sex with her grandson anymore.
She said to him in a consultative tone: "She should have died. But... we still can't offend Duke Xingguo."
Lu Zhengliu thought it was ridiculous: "Grandma, do you still expect the Duke of Xingguo to recognize her?"
Mrs. Lu sighed: "That's not what I meant..."
"What if she is really the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Xingguo and the Duke's Palace does not recognize her? That is the Duke's Palace's business. If we deal with it without asking, then if the Duke's Palace finds out about it and asks about it, we will be offended. What should they do?"
"The Lu family is no longer what it used to be, so we really don't need to offend anyone."
Lu Zhengliu frowned: "Then what do you want to do?"
Mrs. Lu said: "I don't just want to let her go. She killed Yun Wan, and I know you are unhappy. Just throw her at the door of Duke Xingguo's mansion."
Her eyes were shrewd and cold: "If the Duke's Palace recognizes her, she will not be able to leave our Lu family for Brother Qing's sake."
"If you don't recognize it..."
"The Lu family has lost a concubine who plotted to murder the mistress, so it will be easy to deal with it."
In the process of recovering a runaway concubine, I accidentally beat him to death, and it was all over!
Now even Brother Qing hates Ge Baoer, and her life is meaningless.
"It's up to you."
Lu Zhengliu left and went to Yuxing Pavilion to see Zhu Qing and his children.
But his mind was not on the unborn child. Looking at Zhu Qing's face, he thought of Lin Yunwan for some reason.
He whispered: "Yun Wan used to... treat you very well before?"
Zhuqing's eyes turned red: "Grandma couldn't be more kind to me! If it weren't for grandma, I would still be in Zhuangzi, and I don't know whether I am dead or alive now."
Lu Zhengliu said: "Tell me about Yun Wan's past."
Zhu Qing nodded: "I have lived in Zhuangzi for several years. I thought I would be like this for the rest of my life. Grandma..."
Lu Zhengliu interrupted her: "From the time she first entered the house."
Zhu Qing was slightly startled, his eyes quickly softened, and he said nostalgically: "...I am your first wife, do you still remember my past personality? I was young, always a little arrogant, and I contradicted grandma in public. Grandma He was really good-tempered and didn’t say anything.”
"I used to think that grandma was weak and timid. In fact, she is not. Grandma is really tolerant and generous."
"Grandma's kindness can't be appreciated by those without heart."
Lu Zhengliu curled his lips, which was uglier than crying!
Zhuqing was right, he had no heart. She had been very good from the first day she entered the house. Who in the house didn't like her?
Only him...
"take a good rest."
Lu Zhengliu couldn't sit down anymore and left with red eyes.
Zhu Qing looked at his back for a long time, his expression very cold.
She sneered, shook her head and sighed: "Grandma, you're not worth it!"
After marrying such a man, I will miss my wife only after she dies!

The Lin family arranged the funeral for "Lin Yunwan".
The Lin family has never been extravagant and wasteful, and since it was Li's daughter who returned home, the mourning hall was located in the side hall, and most of the people who came to visit were the female family members of the inner family who were good friends with the Lin family. Those men who were officials did not come to express their condolences.
Lin Yunyi accompanied Mrs. Lin to welcome and send off, while Tao Ye and Ping Ye helped with the funeral arrangements.
Although the funeral ceremony was simple, it was quite decent.
Madam Guo also came to express her condolences and advised Mrs. Lin: "...No matter how sad it is for a white-haired person to give a black-haired person to someone else! But you also have a son who is also Yun Wan's biological brother. You must not give birth to a child who will destroy yourself. Heart!"
She knew that Mrs. Lin was not as strong-tempered as Lin Yunwan. If she couldn't bear the change, she would most likely follow him. That would be so pitiful for the Lin family!
Mrs. Lin nodded with tears in her eyes.
Lin Yunyi came over and said, "Ms. Guo, my mother is really tired. I'll send her back to rest first."
Lady Guo said yes.
Lin Yunyi and Taoye said, "This is the trouble for Sister Taoye."
Taoye nodded: "Young master, don't worry, there are slaves in the mourning hall watching over you."
Dressed in linen and mourning, she knelt down to add paper money to "Lin Yunwan".
The coffin was newly replaced, and the coffin was a good one sent by Prince Huan's Palace. Pingye knelt beside it, crying very sadly.
Lin Yunyi sent Mrs. Lin back and said to her: "Mother, you can't cry in your eyes anymore. Just pretend to be sick these days. You won't come forward until the day when 'sister' is buried."
Mrs. Lin agreed.
She grabbed Lin Yunyi's hand in a daze and asked, "Is your sister really...really not dead?"
Lin Yunyi whispered: "Don't worry, I didn't lie. My sister is fine. She has gone to a good place now. Please be patient and wait. My sister will be reunited with us in the future."
"But now that the storm is at the forefront, my sister must not appear again."
Mrs. Lin felt that this was like a dream, and she murmured: "It's good to be alive, Yun Wan, my Yun Wan..."
She felt a little sad again.
Although my daughter did not die, the grievances she suffered were all real! As a mother, she was still heartbroken to have such a thrilling escape from that den of tigers and wolves.
Lin Yunyi continued to go out to greet the guests.
People from the Xia family also came, as did many other female family members of the inner house who used to hang out with the Lu family.
As a guest, Mrs. Xia looked at the people who came to express condolences and said, "These people will never interact with the Lu family again in the future."
Their position has become very clear.
Lu Jia listened, feeling uncomfortable.
But she didn't dare to refute her mother-in-law. She didn't expect Lin Yunwan to die! But she didn't want the Lu family to collapse like this.
"You are not allowed to return to the Lu family again."
Mrs. Xia said cruelly: "If you come back again, you will never come back again. Don't think that I just said it casually. If I dare to say this today, I dare to ask your husband to divorce you!"
Lu Jia lowered her head and twisted her handkerchief and said, "...my daughter-in-law knows."
Even if her mother-in-law asked her to go back, she would not dare to go back!
You don't even have to look at it to know what the Lu family's situation is now. The Xia family won't give up on her, and she has become Amitabha.
February soon came, and the Lin family's funeral was over.
Everyone sent by the Lu family was beaten back, except Lu Changgong.
The junior of the Lu family does not have to observe filial piety, but he still changed all his clothes into plain clothes, always has a white string on his arm, does not eat meat, and does not participate in banquets and games.
Everyone knows that he is keeping filial piety for his mother.
When the Lin clan heard about it, they also wanted to praise him: "This child is a filial child!"
Lu Changgong's reputation outside was extremely good, and few people outside remembered Lu Changzong, the real young master of the Lu family.
Mrs. Lu was a little anxious.
"It's a good thing that the longbow is praised. Brother Qing can't lag behind."
However, she did not mean that Lu Changzong should also observe filial piety for Lin Yunwan, but that the most important thing was to become an official through the imperial examination.
Zhang Fengan had already resigned, and she ordered Lu Zhengliu: "Send Brother Qing to the clan school quickly."
Lu Zhengliu was very hesitant. Lin Yunwan was also Brother Qing's aunt and uncle. If Brother Qing was serious, he should be as filial as Chang Gong.
Mrs. Lu knew what her grandson was thinking, and she said disapprovingly: "She is no longer a member of my Lu family. How will Brother Qing look like he keeps a filial piety for her?"
"Let him study as soon as possible and get ahead."
Lu Zhengliu agreed.
If Brother Qing doesn't have that filial piety, there's no point in forcing him.
In the end, Long Gong was more filial, and like him, he missed Yun Wan more.
There was actually a trace of dislike for Brother Qing in his heart.
"I'll let him go to clan school right now."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone came and said in a panic: "Uncle, Mr. Zhen has resigned!"
Mr. Zhen is the great scholar in the Lu family's school. Even if the Wuding Hou Mansion is in decline, with this great scholar here, the children will work hard and have many opportunities to get ahead!
"How can he resign at this time!"
Mrs. Lu is very angry!
This is the time when the Lu family is short of people!
Lu Zhengliu was also anxious: "Where is Mr. Zhen?"
The messenger said: "...I have left the dictionary and left."
Mrs. Lu said angrily: "This man! He, he, he is really unfaithful!"
Lu Zhengliu clenched his fists and reminded Mrs. Lu: "Grandma, don't forget that Mr. Zhen was invited by Yun Wan."
Now that the Lin family's daughter is no longer in their Lu family, which scholar will buy into the Lu family's account?
Things like this will only increase in the future.
Mrs. Lu thought of this and sat down slumped, feeling indescribably depressed.
Someone came outside again, and Mrs. Wei rushed in in a panic, her hair all messed up!
"Old lady, old lady...incredible! Incredible!"
Mrs. Lu hurriedly went out again and asked, "What's wrong?!"
She scolded Mrs. Wei: "Look at how you look! Are you still a mistress?"
Lu Zhengliu went over to support Wei, frowned and asked, "Mom, what happened?"
Wei's Liu Shen Wuzhu said: "Your father is ill! He goes around killing people with a sword! No one can stop him!"
Marquis Wu Ding was a marquis, and his servants were afraid that injuring his master would be a death penalty. He was so strong that the woman in the inner courtyard couldn't hold him back, and people in the front courtyard couldn't come in casually. We can only let the Marquis chop and kill indiscriminately.
Mrs. Lu's heart sank, this was too troublesome! Who can control her crazy son in the future?
She asked Mr. Wei: "Why did you get sick when you were fine! How did you take care of your husband?"
Mrs. Wei cried aggrievedly: "I, I... Mr. Hou heard that Yunwan was dead..."
How did she know that her husband would be so angry that he would go crazy!
Wei said angrily: "Old madam, you know how to take care of it, just go and take care of it!"
I'm afraid that the Marquis will disown his relatives and chop down the old lady too!
"you!"
Mrs. Lu was so angry, this idiot!
But these are not the scariest things. The Lu family... is going to end!
And from now on, she would have to watch the Lu family decline bit by bit.
"Yun Wan..."
Mrs. Lu's eyes were dazzled and she almost fainted.
Yan's mother pinched her.
Mrs. Lu seemed to have aged instantly. She asked Yan's mother: "My Lu family has just left a mistress. How...how could this happen?"
She is just a young daughter-in-law!
Yan's mother hesitated to speak.
Now do you know how important grandma is?
Although she doesn't like the maids around grandma, to be fair, grandma is supporting most of the whole family!
Now that grandma is gone, the Lu family will have to suffer.
