I fought back after reselling my engagement

Chapter 53: Marry the Lu Family Instead of Him

Lu Yan said, "Su Niang, I know I've let you down. The Wan brothers whom I later married poisoned you. This time, you don't want to marry me again, but I... still want to marry you. This is what I owe you in this life and the past."

Who was Wan? Why did her father and brother poison her?

Didn't she die of illness? Why did he say that it was Wan's father and brother who poisoned her? No wonder she was poisoned in her previous life. She was drowsy and couldn't wake up. She thought it was a cold, but within half a month she was too sick to get out of bed. She died after lying on the couch for three days.

It was not typhoid fever, nor was it a disease, but a chronic poison unknown to gods and ghosts.

Zhen Su calmed down. It had been more than three years since she was reborn. Only now did she know the unknown truth of her past life. It was so absurd. She thought she could find peace by marrying into a farmer's family, but she was actually poisoned.

My heart, why is it so unwilling?

"Brother Lu, you are wrong about one thing. In my previous life, I didn't marry you. I married the Lu family. The Lu family, without you, I could live safely, but with you, it will lead me to a dead end."

Without him, she would have lived peacefully, but because of him, she died young.

In her previous life, she married into the Lu family, only seeking peace, not wealth and glory, like a person living like a dead wood. She was spending her days, obviously that age, but she lived like an old man.

"If you say that I am pursuing you for the sake of repaying a favor, you are wrong. I have been taking care of the Lu family for three years since I came back, because I married into the Lu family for eight years in my previous life. Uncle Lu, Aunt Lu, my second brother, his wife, and my youngest sister respected and protected me. I help the Lu family because I hope they can live a better life, and I want to repay their care and love in my previous life."

Lu Wang would not become the regret and pain of the whole family; the aunt would not suffer from chronic illness due to poverty and inability to treat her illness in time; the younger sister would not be forced to be sold to a wealthy family as a maid because the family could not make ends meet...

The Lu family is simple and kind. She will always remember that when she called Aunt Lu "Mom" for the first time, she was so excited and happy that her eyes were filled with tears.

Zhen Su said: "My friendship with the Lu family has nothing to do with Big Brother Lu. That was my previous feeling for the Lu family that I couldn't let go of. Now, I have let go. In my previous life, I didn't know you when I married into the Lu family, and I never saw you until I died. In this life, I don't want to be entangled with you. I want to live a good life."

Her voice is always pleasant and gentle, as fascinating as the whisper of a dream.

Lu Yan said: "Don't you like me at all?"

"I was poisoned by the Wan family. What did you do now that you knew the truth?" Zhen Su asked.

Lu Yan couldn't help but take two steps back. What did he do? The person who told him the truth was Lu Xing's eldest son, who had been taught by Zhen Su for many years. Although he called Zhen Su "auntie", in his heart, this auntie was like an immortal, better than anyone else in the family.

When he told Lu Yan the truth, Lu Yan said he didn't believe it, but later Lu Xiaomei said the same thing again. Lu Xiaomei married a Jinwu Guard husband. Her purpose of marrying was to find out the truth about her eldest sister-in-law being poisoned. After her eldest sister-in-law died, her lips were black. She didn't believe that her eldest sister-in-law died of illness. She suspected that her eldest sister-in-law was poisoned.

After several years, Lu Xiaomei finally found evidence.

When his nephew told Lu Yan the truth at first, he didn't believe it. But when Lu Xiaomei put the evidence in front of him and asked him to give an explanation to his eldest sister-in-law who died young, he chose to ignore Wan's three children kneeling in front of him.

Because of Wan's mother and son, Lu Yan chose to ignore it, and his parents, brothers and sisters, and nephews lived with the poisonous truth and guilt.

They couldn't get over the hurdle of conscience and were unwilling to live with Wan. Throughout her life, Lu Xiaomei never called Wan "sister-in-law" but instead called her "Mrs. Hou, Madam."

In her eyes, Wan was just the wife of the Marquis of Pingguo, not her sister-in-law.

Zhen Su asked the point and smiled, "Brother Lu, I don't want to repeat that life again in this life. You sent me safely to my grandfather, and our friendship was wiped out. You ignored my tragic death and lost the opportunity to start over with me. No matter what kind of relationship you have with her, I am as proud as I am and don't want to get involved in your conspiracy anymore."

Lu Yan's heart ached. He had no impression of her in his previous life. All his impressions came from his family's stories about her. He actually did not have any feelings for her and even felt that it was all made up by his family to deceive him.

He returned eight years early and saw his first wife, who was still waiting to be married. He saw her beauty, agility, playfulness, helplessness, decisiveness, and her calculations. She was so vivid that she conquered his heart at the first sight in the teahouse.

He only remembered Wan before, but after meeting Zhen Su, he only remembered Zhen Su.

Lu Yan said: "Su Niang, give me a chance, I will never let you get hurt again."

In her previous life, she married into the Lu family for many reasons, most of which was to escape the control of her stepmother and not be a lowly concubine. When her biological mother Su was alive, she did not leave her with the words "I would rather be a peasant woman than a concubine of a noble family". She only used this as an excuse to reject the calculations of Yu and Zhen Zhen.

Zhen Su said, "In my previous life, I gave up my position as wife to Wan Shi and died. What happened to the Lu family afterwards? Are Uncle Lu and Aunt Lu doing well? Did they die of old age?"

Lu Yan was unable to answer, a deep sense of guilt flashing across his eyes.

Because he married Wan, he was eventually dragged into the struggle for imperial power by Wan and the Wan family. After the old emperor passed away, the crown prince ascended the throne, but these former princes were all unwilling to accept this. They all felt that their talents were better than the new emperor. When they were plotting, they were caught by the imperial guards sent by the new emperor and the trusted officials of the Ministry of Justice.

The new monarch has been hiding his wisdom and talents. Before he ascended the throne, he was like a tiger ready to pounce, waiting for other wolves to counterattack. Once convicted, he would strike ruthlessly.

He and the Lu family were arrested for conspiracy. Because his wife was the cousin of another prince's uncle, he was also convicted of "treason". All the members of the Lu family were confiscated and thrown into prison.

In the prison, Lu Xiaomei and Lu Xing's wife pointed at Wan and cursed her, calling her an evil spirit, saying that she killed Zhen in order to marry Lu Yan, and that she was the enemy of the Lu family who killed her sister-in-law.

Lu Xing's wife cursed cruelly because of the fear of death. Wan smiled foolishly, "Lu Yan, do you hate me too?"

Lu Yan was imprisoned in a separate cell because he was a wanted criminal of the traitor party. "What if I hate him? What if I don't hate him?"

Wan suppressed her smile, "I'll tell you one thing: your first wife wasn't killed by my father and brother, I poisoned her to death. I've never liked you, the person I've always liked is my cousin, I want to help him, I want to help him ascend the throne to become emperor, but no one in the Wan family has military power. Before you moved back to the court, I had already made up my mind, to help my cousin, I want to marry you, if I hold you, my cousin will hold military power, and he will be one step closer to the throne..."

Lu Xing shouted, "Poisonous woman! Poisonous woman, you finally admitted that it was you who poisoned my sister-in-law and you who dragged our entire Lu family to be buried with her?"
