After the rebirth of the Marquis's mistress, she smiled at the scumbag's family

After the two of them reunited with Xia He and others, they hurried back to the manor, packed up and prepared to return to Beijing.

"Sister Yun, please don't let anyone else know what happened today."

Mu Qingyun was still in shock and nodded vigorously, "How could I be so unlucky to encounter this evil spirit!"

Mo Ruochen's face flashed through Xiao Yunxi's mind, and she thought to herself, the capital will be in unrest once this evil and vicious uncle returns.

After returning to the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion, Xiao Yunxi took a few wild rabbits caught by Lu Zhan to Shou'an Hall.

The old lady then instructed Xiao Yunxi to set up dinner in the garden, invite the Dong family to watch the moon and eat roasted rabbit together, and also invite a theatre troupe or a circus to liven up the party.

Xiao Yunxi followed the old lady's instructions, and everything was arranged in an orderly manner. Before the hour of Xu, everything was ready.

As soon as the sun set, Madam Lu, Princess Ruan and the Dong family all arrived.

Everyone sat together, and the garden suddenly became bustling and lively.

Old Madam Dong loved listening to operas, and she listened to the "Silang Visits His Mother" on the stage with great gusto.

Although Madam Lu didn't like it, she pretended to like it and chatted with Madam Dong from time to time.

The young wives didn't like this kind of drama. They were quite comfortable eating roasted rabbit and chatting about gossip.

"Brother, why didn't you take me with you when you went hunting today?"

Lu Ze suddenly asked.

Lu Zhan looked up suspiciously, "Didn't my brother say that horseback archery is a vulgar act and has always been looked down upon?"

"Humph, I'm afraid you don't want me to have more contact with the Xiao family."

Lu Zhan pursed his lips, feeling that Lu Ze was looking for trouble.

"Hey, you are a country bumpkin who brought bad luck to your parents, but you have caught the eye of Xiao Yunxi, and now you have even climbed into the Ningguo Mansion. Aren't you very proud?"

When Lu Zhan heard him being disrespectful to his mother, he immediately scolded him, "Be careful with your words, brother. She is also your stepmother!"

"Tsk, you really think of yourself as your brother, without even considering whether you are worthy or not. What's wrong with Xiao Yunxi? She's just a hen occupying the toilet without doing anything. Father doesn't even want to look at her!"

After saying that, Lu Ze looked at Lu Zhan provocatively.

The play on the stage was reaching its climax, and all the female members of the family looked towards the stage.

"Princess, it's bad, Master Zhan and Master Ze are fighting!"

Lu Zhan's maid crawled to Xiao Yunxi and said, "Princess, Master Ze hit Master Zhan's face and made it bleed."

Madam Lu also heard it, and immediately stopped the stage and asked the maid, "Where are they? Have you asked a doctor to come and take a look?"

When Xiao Yunxi heard that Lu Zhan was injured, she could no longer sit still and immediately ordered the maid to lead the way outside.

Others also reacted and rushed over.

When Xiao Yunxi and the others arrived, Lu Zhan and Lu Ze had already been pulled apart.

There was blood on their faces, hands, and clothes.

Madam Lu was so angry that she was shaking. "Are you all dead? Just watching the two young masters get beaten like this?!"

Xiao Yunxi walked quickly forward, took Lu Zhan's hand, and carefully checked him from head to toe. She then used a handkerchief to wipe the blood off his face and hands. Only after she was sure that he had only superficial injuries did she feel relieved.

Lu Zhan's eyes were red. Seeing that his mother didn't say a word of blame but only showed concern, he bit his lip and secretly hated himself for being so impulsive. He was afraid that he would cause trouble for his mother again.

Lu Ze ran to Princess Ruan and cried, "Grandma, please save me! That bastard Lu Zhan wants to beat me to death!"

After all, she still felt sorry for her own grandson. Ruan hugged Lu Ze to comfort him and stared at Lu Zhan fiercely. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Xiao Yunxi's cold voice.

"Lu Ze, who are you calling a bastard?"

Ruan was startled by the cruelty in Xiao Yunxi's eyes and quickly hid Lu Ze behind her. "Children's words are innocent. Don't make a big deal out of it."

Seeing that Xiao Yunxi was really angry, Madam Lu was also a little scared, and quickly said, "Yes, it's normal for children to fight with each other. Let's ask a doctor to take a look."

He joked with Madam Dong again, "Brother Jingting and his friends used to fight each other when they were little. Fang'er, why don't you help your mother-in-law go back to watch the show?"

Madam Dong frowned, "Madam, brothers should be friendly and respectful to each other, and the order of seniority should be respected. If the younger brother is disrespectful to his elder brother, if you don't discipline him now, I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future."

Seeing Xiao Yunxi being so partial, and her grandmother and mother being obviously afraid of Xiao Yunxi, Lu Guifang could no longer bear it and said angrily, "If a mother is partial, then naturally the son will not get along! Ze'er's mouth corners are broken, which shows that Lu Zhan was ruthless. He is not a brother at all!"

Although she is not close to Lu Ze, he is still her nephew.

Xia He stepped forward and said, "Miss, I just checked and found that Master Zhan's injuries were all defensive injuries."

"What do you know, a lowly slave? Is it your turn to interrupt when the master is talking?"

"Like master, like servant. The master is a cruel and ruthless person, and I am just a liar."

Madam Dong slapped Lu Guifang in the face, causing her to stagger. "How dare you interfere in the family affairs of the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion?!"

"You are full of foul language and have no manners at all. You are really bringing shame to our Dong family. Why don't you get out of here?"

Old Madam Dong looked down upon her daughter-in-law more and more. She was narrow-minded, short-sighted, and jealous. After moving into the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion, she became even more rude and unruly!

Seeing that her mother-in-law was really angry, Lu Guifang dared not say anything and could only cover her face and step aside.

Mrs. Lu and Mrs. Ruan felt distressed and angry when they saw Lu Guifang being beaten and scolded in front of all the servants in the mansion. However, every word Mrs. Dong said made sense and they blushed with resentment.

Xiao Yunxi still looked at Lu Ze coldly. What happened today could not be let go just like that.

She believed in Lu Zhan.

"Brother Zhan, don't be afraid. Tell mother why you are fighting."

Xiao Yunxi's voice was gentle, and her eyes were full of trust and heartache.

Lu Zhan's eyes turned red, and he told Xiao Yunxi everything that had happened, including the insults Lu Ze had said to her.

For a moment, you can hear the needle drop.

Ruan opened her mouth but couldn't say a word to defend Lu Ze.

Madam Lu was the same, but her face was gloomy.

Because they knew that Lu Zhan probably didn't lie, and Lu Ze could indeed say such things.

Lu Jingting, who rushed over after hearing the news, also fell silent.

Looking at Xiao Yunxi's indifferent expression, his heart suddenly felt uneasy.

"No, you're lying. I didn't say that. It's obvious that you thought my clothes were prettier than yours and my jade pendant was more expensive than yours, so you got jealous and hit me!"

Lu Ze shouted unconvinced, and then hugged Ruan's legs and cried, "Grandma, you have to make the decision for me."

"Haha," Xiao Yunxi laughed, "Zhan'er's clothes were all made by the Siyifang of the Shanggong Bureau and then sent to the mansion. The jade pendant is my dowry, and it was also prepared by the Sizhenfang that year."

"I didn't know that the skills of the Shanggong Bureau were not as good as those of the embroiderers in the Zhennan Palace? It seems that I need to go to the palace to report to the Queen Mother and reorganize the Shanggong Bureau!"

Mrs. Lu was really scared this time, and she glanced at Lu Jingting.

Lu Jingting was also angry and afraid, "Asshole, insulting my stepmother, framing my brother, and showing no remorse!"

He picked up the willow branch on the ground and was about to hit Lu Ze.

"Madam, someone has died. Miss Lin hanged herself and is now dead..."

The gatekeeper who was watching over Lin Wan'er came over, tumbling and crawling, and shouted in panic, "Go and have a look! Miss Yuan is crying loudly out of fear!"

Lu Jingting was stunned after hearing what the mother-in-law said. Why did Lin Wan'er hang herself?

He suddenly ran outside.
