green garden.

At the end of the meal, Lu Wanfang asked the question that had been hidden in his heart for a long time, "...How have you and Ning'er been doing over the years?"

"Master Lao is worried. Ning'er and I are both fine."

It would be false to say that he is not resentful. It has been a long time since Lu Wan came in. He has not seen Ning'er appear and he has not even asked her a question.

Fan Linghua was always awkward in his heart and did not want to start a verbal argument with Lu Wancheng.

Before Lu Wanduo could ask a few questions, a young boy broke into Qingyuan.

"Master, it's not good..."

Lu Wan was displeased and scolded his servant angrily, "What are you yelling about? Didn't you see that my mistress and I were having dinner?"

The boy hurriedly bent down and said, "I'm sorry, sir, it was the Second Madam who asked me to invite you."

Lu Wan looked at Fan Linghua, who was still calm, and asked the boy uncomfortably, "What's going on with the Zhu family?"

The young man didn't take the owner of Qingyuan seriously because he had the support of the second lady. Hearing Lu Wan's question, he hurriedly said: "The second lady drank the doctor's medicine and she was getting better. But somehow The condition has suddenly worsened, and the abscesses have even burst and a lot of blood has flowed out. Master, you’d better go and have a look."

Lu Wan had seen Lu Qimeng's situation and knew how serious it was, but he was having dinner with Fan Linghua right now, so it wouldn't be appropriate to leave like this in the middle of the dinner.

He glanced at Fan Linghua uncomfortably.

Fan Linghua said calmly: "Master, you'd better go and see the second lady quickly. Don't make the second lady unhappy again and come to Qingyuan to cause trouble for us."

Lu Wan frowned, what are you talking about? He, the head of the Lu family, has a meal with his married wife, but he still has to look at the expressions of his concubines?

Just when he was about to make up his mind not to go see Lu Qimeng, another boy came to report, "Sir, two more abscesses on the corners of the second lady's mouth have burst."

Lu Wan opened his eyes angrily, what's going on with the servants in this mansion? How come everyone can come and go from Qingyuan at will? Don't they know that Qingyuan is the courtyard where the head mistress of Lu Mansion lives?

"You bastards, who told you to enter the mistress's courtyard without notification?"

At the moment, Lu Wan was furious and wanted to rectify the family tradition.

As a result...another boy came, and what he reported was very different from what the first two boys reported. It was nothing more than that the sore on the corner of Lu Qimeng's mouth had broken again.

Lu Wan was furious and was about to curse, but Fan Linghua said at the right time, "Master, it's better to go and take a look. I've already eaten, so I'll go back to the room first."

After she finished speaking, Wei Bi and Wei Qing supported her from left to right, and they went back to the room together.

Seeing this situation, Lu Wan's anger was instantly suppressed.

He waved his hands in frustration, "Okay, I'm going to see Meng'er right now. You guys go back first."

After the boy left, Lu Wan glanced at the closed door of the main room with a complicated mood, hesitating whether to say anything, but thinking of his wife's distant look just now, he became timid.

Turned around and left Qingyuan.

It wasn't until he left that Wei Bi in the room could no longer feel the movement of any living people in the yard, and then she said to Fan Linghua: "Madam, the master is gone."

Fan Linghua took a deep breath, barely suppressed the sour feeling in his heart, and said feebly: "You go to the courtyard and put away the dishes, I want to rest."

Wei Bi and Wei Qing looked at each other before leaving the main house and going to the courtyard to tidy up.

Wei Bi was still worried and whispered to Wei Qing: "I will go to the Prince Regent's Palace to report this matter to the lady. You keep my wife safe."

Wei Qing nodded. She also felt that it was necessary to report today's events to the lady, "You go ahead, Madam, I'm here."

The two of them were paid by Lu Wan Ning, so naturally they had to report everything to Lu Wan Ning.

Qimeng Pavilion was in chaos at this moment, and no one noticed Wei Bi leaving at this time.

Lu Wan looked around the serious corners of Lu Qimeng's mouth and murmured in his heart. How long had it passed before the sores on the corners of his mouth didn't get better, but instead became more serious.

The maids and servants who saw the punishment in the courtyard asked Zhu about the reason.

"Why were they forced to kneel in the courtyard?"

"This..." Zhu Yunhan hesitated and refused to answer.

"Say."

When Lu Wan gave the order, Zhu was frightened.

Lu Qimeng couldn't bear to see her father scolding her mother. She endured the discomfort at the corner of her mouth and stepped forward angrily: "Dad, why do you have to embarrass my mother? They dislike the bad smell on my body and even vomited on the spot. I'm really angry and call someone to beat me." I took them off the board and asked them to kneel in the courtyard until I was satisfied before I got up."

As she spoke, the abscess on the corner of her mouth rose again, and it had a tendency to grow into her mouth.

Lu Wan snorted coldly, "You beat and scold them at every turn just because of such trivial matters. You are a girl's family. If you act like this, no good people will come to your door to propose marriage."

"Speaking of marriage, why don't dad ask the one in Qingyuan what good things she and her daughter have done."

Lu Qimeng was quick to talk and had already told the story before Zhu Yunhan stopped her.

Lu Wan was puzzled when he saw Zhu's actions, and angrily scolded Lu Qimeng, "How can you discuss that person in Qingyuan? She is the mistress of the house and is your nominal mother."

Lu Qimeng snorted and stopped talking.

Lu Wan took the opportunity to figure out the reason, "Tell me what Ning'er did to make you feel so resentful."

Lu Qimeng had no outlet to express her feelings. When Lu Wan asked, Zhu Yunhan couldn't stop her daughter from talking. Lu Qimeng shook off the fact that Lu Wanning married the regent on her behalf, and even changed her identity. It was a non-existent lie that Lu Wan Ning knocked her out and married the regent instead of her.

Lu Wan thought about the credibility of Lu Qi's words in her dream, and asked in a tentative tone: "I heard that those who marry concubines in the regent's palace will not live for more than three days. Ning'er will charm you for glory and wealth. Halo, will I marry you instead?"

"This..." Lu Qimeng was shocked to realize at this moment that her words were full of loopholes.

Zhu Yunhan hurriedly helped Lu Qimeng lie, "Perhaps Ning'er is always in the boudoir and doesn't know who the regent is. Besides, it is well known that Ning'er is living a good life in the regent's palace. I want to come to the regent's house." It’s not as scary as the rumors say.”

Lu Wan stared at Zhu, "Do you also think that Ning'er robbed Meng'er of her good marriage?"

"of course."

Lu Qimeng felt confident when she heard that her mother had given her a very reasonable explanation.

Zhu Yunhan tugged on her daughter's sleeves and signaled her not to talk too much, "Maybe Ning'er has good intentions and is afraid that Meng'er's marriage will be like what the rumors say, so she married in Meng'er's place."

"mother…"

Lu Qimeng refused, her mother was clearly trying to clear Lu Wan Ning's name.

Zhu Yunhan ignored her daughter's struggle and still said good things for Lu Wan Ning, "Ning'er was kind enough to marry in Meng'er's place. Now that she is living a satisfactory life in the Regent's Palace, I feel relieved."

One move was to retreat into advance, leaving Lu unable to find a trace even if he wanted to attack.
