"Young Marquis Chu, do you know what this spice means to you?" Lu Yundi suddenly asked.
Chu Qirui was slightly stunned, then slowly said: "Although the spices are precious, I think that their value lies in being able to bring you a moment of peace."
Lu Yundi smiled, with admiration in his eyes: "Young Marquis is indeed different. In this materialistic world, it is rare for you to value friendship so much."
Chu Qirui touched his nose embarrassedly and said with a smile: "Madam, you are too kind. I just did what I thought I should do."
Seeing this, the maids all stepped aside, not daring to disturb the tranquility.
During the conversation, Chu Qirui suddenly remembered something and asked, "Madam, do you know where this spice comes from?"
Lu Yundi shook his head: "This spice is called 'Dream Butterfly Fragrance' and is produced in the southern Xinjiang area. The mountains there are high and the roads are long, the climate is harsh, and it is difficult for ordinary people to reach there."
Chu Qirui's eyes flashed with determination: "In this case, I will go to Southern Xinjiang and bring back the spices."
Lu Yundi looked at Chu Qirui, feeling both grateful and worried: "Young Marquis, the land of Southern Xinjiang is extremely dangerous, you must be careful."
Chu Qirui gently patted Lu Yundi's hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, Madam. I will definitely return safely."
One day, the maid of Zhenxing Marquis's mansion came running in a panic, reporting that Chu Qirui had returned from southern Xinjiang. Lu Yundi's heart tightened, and he hurried to the door.
Chu Qirui was wearing a battle robe and his face was weathered, but his eyes were shining with joy. He held an exquisite box in his hand, which contained Mengdiexiang.
"Madam, I have fulfilled my mission and finally brought back the spice." Chu Qirui handed the box to Lu Yundi, his eyes full of anticipation.
Lu Yundi took the box, tears welled up in her eyes. She gently stroked the box, her heart full of gratitude: "Young Marquis, you have given so much, Di'er has no way to repay you."
Chu Qirui looked at Lu Yundi and felt a warm feeling in his heart.
……
Mrs. Lu came out and pulled Lu Yundi back, "Neighbors, please come and watch the fun. The Jiang family and the Lu family have fallen out. We, the Lu family, will not raise any child from the Jiang family."
As soon as the voice fell, the crowd around him began to whisper, some expressing regret, some gloating. Lu Yundi blushed, and she tried to hold back the tears in her eyes and stay calm.
"Mother, I understand." Lu Yundi responded in a low voice with a slight tremor in his voice.
At this time, the neighbor Aunt Li came over, patted Mrs. Lu on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Lu, you are doing this for the family's reputation. The child of the Jiang family is not a worry-free one. However, Miss Yundi is a child from a good family. How do you think this matter can be resolved?"
Madam Lu frowned slightly, her eyes swept over everyone, and then she slowly spoke: "This matter will naturally be resolved by our Lu family, and no one else needs to worry about it. Yundi, you are a sensible person. Since the Jiang family doesn't want you anymore, you can stay at home with peace of mind. The Lu family will give you an explanation."
Lu Yundi lowered his head slightly, a hint of gratitude flashing in his eyes.
At this time, Uncle Zhang, a neighbor, couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Mrs. Lu, you are wrong. No matter how troublesome the Jiang family's child is, he is still Yundi's husband. We outsiders can't easily interfere in the conflict between the couple. In my opinion, it is better to let Yundi talk to the Jiang family and see if we can resolve this misunderstanding."
Mrs. Lu snorted coldly and glared at Uncle Zhang: "Uncle Zhang, are you teaching me how to do things? Di has done her best, but her husband is ungrateful. Our Lu family cannot bear the reputation of an adopted son because of an unfilial descendant."
Uncle Zhang felt a little embarrassed by what Mrs. Lu said. He touched his head and stopped talking.
At this time, the neighbor, Mrs. Wang, came over, took Lu Yundi's hand, and said with concern: "Yundi, you are a good child, don't worry, this matter will be resolved. I watched the child of the Jiang family grow up, and he is not a bad person by nature, but sometimes he does things without thinking. Go back and talk to him and ask him to apologize to you."
Lu Yundi smiled slightly and looked at Mrs. Wang gratefully: "Mrs. Wang, thank you. I will try to talk to him, I hope he can understand."
As they were talking, a white-haired old man came over from a distance. It was the head of the Lu family, Old Master Lu. He looked at everyone, coughed, and said seriously: "Neighbors, we will solve the Lu family's affairs ourselves. Yundi, you are a good child, don't worry, the Lu family will not let you suffer any grievances. As for the child of the Jiang family, I will send someone to talk to him and see if I can make him change his mind."
Everyone nodded, expressing their agreement with Old Master Lu's opinion. Lu Yundi looked at the clan leader, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes.
On this day, Mrs. Wang came to visit Lu Yundi again. Seeing Lu Yundi busy at work, she couldn't help but sigh: "Yundi, you are such a strong child. I don't know what the Jiang family kid is thinking. He doesn't want to marry such a good wife."
Lu Yundi stopped what he was doing and said with a smile, "Sister Wang, I know you care about me. In fact, marriage is like drinking water, only you know whether it is hot or cold. I believe that one day, he will understand me."
Mrs. Wang sighed and patted Lu Yundi on the shoulder: "I hope so. But you have to take good care of yourself and don't get tired."
At this moment, the servant of the Lu family ran in and said breathlessly: "Madam, the clan leader is back. He said he has something important to announce."
Mrs. Lu was slightly stunned, and immediately put down the work in her hands and went to the living room with Lu Yundi.
Old Master Lu sat in the first seat, looked at everyone, and said seriously: "I have sent people to the Jiang family to persuade them to let the child come back. The Jiang family also expressed their willingness to accept our conditions and take Yun Di back to the Jiang family."
Everyone congratulated Lu Yundi, but she smiled slightly, with a hint of determination in her eyes: "Thank you, Patriarch. But I have decided not to return to the Jiang family. The Lu family is my home, and I will stay here and contribute my strength to the Lu family."
Old Master Lu looked at Lu Yundi with a glimmer of approval in his eyes. He smiled and said, "Okay, since you have decided so, we will respect your choice. From now on, you are the daughter of the Lu family, and the glory of the Lu family is your glory."
Everyone applauded to show their agreement.
……
Seeing Chu Qirui standing behind the door, Cuiying's heart tightened. She quickly lowered her head, trying to hide her inner panic. At this time, Lu Yundi noticed Cuiying's strangeness and followed her gaze. She saw Chu Qirui standing behind the door, looking at this side with deep eyes.
Lu Yundi smiled slightly, walked forward, and said in a friendly manner: "Qi Rui, why are you standing there? Come in quickly, we are talking about you."
Chu Qirui nodded slightly and walked into the house. He was wearing a moon-white robe, with an upright posture and noble and heroic spirit between his eyebrows. Cuiying secretly raised her eyes to glance at him, and her heart became more and more nervous.
Chu Qirui sat on the chair, his eyes lingering on Cuiying for a moment, then turned to Lu Yundi and smiled, "Madam, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Lu Yundi smiled and replied, "Actually, it's nothing. I just wanted Cuiying to keep you company and learn about your recent situation."
