Chapter 9 Stepmother

"I won't tell my grandfather." Lu Yuanning also blinked playfully.

Lu Wenting laughed "splashed" and suddenly felt that he was getting closer to this sister again.

Aunt Ji was happy to see the brother and sister approaching each other, and smiled so hard that she couldn't see her eyes. She said with relief: "You brother and sister should be so close to each other. In the past, you had to separate, and in the future you must support each other. If you mother had a spirit in heaven, she would definitely be very relieved."

Lu Wenting knew that Aunt Ji was the personal maid of her biological mother Wang during her lifetime and had been taking care of her sister. Therefore, she was grateful and respectful to her and nodded respectfully, "What the aunt said is that I will definitely take good care of Ning Niang."

Aunt Ji's lips showed an increasingly satisfied smile.

Lu Yuanning felt that her smile was particularly dazzling.

She remembered that in her previous life, her brother respected Aunt Ji at the beginning, but over time, her brother realized that Aunt Ji had a strong desire to control their brother and sister, and began to deliberately alienate Aunt Ji and advised her to send Aunt Ji back to Yanling for retirement.

At that time, she only felt that her brother was cold-blooded and ruthless. Not only did she not listen to her brother's advice, she also scolded her brother for forgetting her roots and being a fool who was brainwashed by Zhu's family.

Now looking at it again, that idiot is like herself.

It's ridiculous that she was still obsessed with her at that time and firmly defended Aunt Ji. In the end, she gradually drifted away from her brother until she turned against each other.

Lu Yuanning took a deep breath, suppressed the guilt in his heart, looked at Aunt Ji and said, "Auntie, what's going on outside just now?"

"Miss, don't worry, it's not a big deal. It's just that a prince of the marquis's family was seriously injured. The servants in the mansion were anxious to find the doctor to go back for treatment. They accidentally hit the carriage in front, which implicated us."

Aunt Ji spoke lightly, but Lu Yuanning felt a "sudden" in his heart when he heard it.

The prince of the Marquis’s mansion?

These four words inevitably made her think of Gu Jingxing.

Her husband in the last life.

"Yes, which Marquis' Mansion?" Lu Yuanning's hands subconsciously stroked his lower abdomen, and his voice trembled slightly.

"It's said it was the Yingwu Marquis Mansion." Aunt Ji first came to the capital and did not know much about these Dukes and Bo Mansions. She was still scared and said: "Fortunately, no one was injured, otherwise it would be a lawsuit. Those nobles would not reason with the people."

Lu Wenting retorted: "Aunt, don't speculate on yourself. Marquis Yingwu is not the kind of person my aunt said. He is very famous among the people in the capital and is the most upright. Moreover, the prince of the Marquis's mansion has been weak and sick since he was a child. This time he was seriously injured, so he must be in danger. The servants of the Marquis' mansion are just eager to save people."

Yingwu Hou Gu Yun is a great hero in Lu Wenting's mind, so he can't listen to others' bad words about Yingwu Hou.

Aunt Ji was refuted and her face looked a little ugly.

None of them noticed Lu Yuanning's sudden pale face.

...

The carriage arrived at the Lu family soon.

The Lu family has a good geographical location, located in Xinlin Lane on the north side of the imperial city.

This area is worth every inch of land, and most of the people live in capital officials or lords and lords and counts of the third rank, and most of them are mansions given by saints.

However, Lu Yun bought the Lu family's house by himself.

In the three years, the Qing Dynasty magistrate was 100,000. Lu Yun worked outside for more than ten years, and no matter how greedy he was, he saved up some family business. In addition, Xuxian Zhu's family was a wealthy businessman in Jiangzhou, so he naturally had no shortage of money.

However, he is a fourth-rank official. In the capital with many officials, this rank is not high, and it is not that it was too eye-catching as soon as he entered Beijing, so he only bought a small courtyard with two entry and two exits, and asked the second master of the Lu family in Yanling who was the Minister of Revenue in the capital to help him buy it.

Fortunately, the Lu family has a simple population, unlike those noble families and noble families, which is enough to live.

Zhu was at the door of the mansion early in the morning. When he saw the carriage, he looked happy and immediately ordered the servants around him, "Master and the others are here, you guys can help quickly."

It happened that at this time, Lu Yuanning got off the carriage with Qin Shuang's support.

Zhu saw the eldest daughter in the crowd at a glance and was shocked.

The beautiful girl in her prime has delicate facial features and picturesque eyebrows. She is combed in a simple double-ring bun, wearing a pink apricot-colored begonia half-arm, a goose yellow shirt inside, and a long bean green sprinkled gold skirt underneath. Her hair bun and waist are tied with tender yellow ribbons, which makes her look beautiful and charming.

Like, so similar.

Zhu remembered a portrait hanging in Lu Yun's study.

She knew it was a portrait of her husband's original wife's deceased wife.

Now that she saw Lu Yuanning, she finally understood why her husband was reluctant to bring this daughter to her side for upbringing.

It turns out that I am afraid of being hurt.

Fortunately, thirteen years have passed, and the long time has finally wiped out my husband's obsession.

Otherwise, I was afraid that this stepdaughter would not be able to live with his father until he got married.

Thinking of this, Zhu sighed slightly in his heart.

She was born in a wealthy family in Jiangzhou and was also the legitimate daughter of the family. She was very fond of her since childhood. She had a smooth life before she got married and had never suffered any setbacks. Even after getting married, she knew that her husband would not forget his original wife and lost his wife. She felt sad and confused for a while. But after thinking about it carefully, she felt that she could marry her beloved. Her husband was of noble character and talent and beauty, and respected her very much, so she gradually became clear.

Especially in recent years, the relationship between husband and wife has become better and better, and the children have become more and more sensible. She feels that there is no happier woman in this world than her.

Therefore, Zhu, who lives a happy and happy life, did not have any jealousy and rejection of this stepdaughter who looked like his husband's original wife and had always lived under someone else's roof, but only had pity and love.

Poor child, she probably would never know for the rest of her life that her grandfather would blame her mother for her death.

Zhu was filled with emotion here, but he didn't know that Lu Yuanning looked at her, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.

She hated and resented this stepmother in her previous life, but now she regretted and felt guilty.

She no longer remembers how many times she had fought against her stepmother. She only remembers that the most serious time she had hurt her stepmother was when her stepmother was pregnant. In order to help Qinshuang compete for favor, she despicable use of her stepmother's concern for her and drugged her stepmother's food, which caused her stepmother to miscarriage and could not be pregnant for life.

She will always remember the look of her stepmother's eyes when she learned the truth, full of resentment and disappointment, and no longer had any warmth.

Since then, her treatment in the mansion has plummeted, and her father hastily arranged a marriage to send her out of the capital. Later, Qinshuang was killed by a stick for stealing, and Aunt Ji suddenly went crazy and lost her whereabouts. She finally realized that her stepmother was not weak or bullied, but was unwilling to care about them.

And she touched the bottom line of her stepmother, which led to her betrayal of her relatives and ended up with resentment.

She didn't resent her stepmother because she was all responsible for it.

Now that she lives again, she just wants to make up for the mistakes she has made, as for the others...

A handsome and indifferent face suddenly flashed through my mind.
