All the people in the Hou Mansion are evil, and they will be repaid tenfold after rebirth
Chapter 78 Marriage with Young Marquis Chu
The carriage started slowly. Lu Yundi sat in the carriage, but he was thinking about his past with Jiang Jilian.
The two of them had known each other since childhood, grew up together, and had a deep affection for each other. However, as time went by, there were more and more things to do in the mansion, and Jiang Jilian began to become busy.
When she returned to the mansion, it was already late. Lu Yundi went directly to the main hall, which was brightly lit but silent. She glanced around coldly and walked straight to the main seat and sat down.
As he spoke, Lu Yundi slapped Ye Wanxue in the face, stunning her and scaring even Madam Hu.
"Lu Yundi, you are going too far!" Ye Wanxue became angry.
A distinct palm print was left on Ye Wanxue's cheek, and a trace of disbelief flashed in her eyes. She covered her slapped face, glared at Lu Yundi, and cried in her voice: "Lu Yundi, you are too much! What did I do wrong that you treat me like this?"
Lu Yundi's eyes were cold. She slowly stood up and said in a cold voice, "Ye Wanxue, you dare to usurp my position in the Zhenxing Marquis's Mansion and sit in the main seat. Do you think I dare not do anything to you?"
Everyone in the mansion looked at each other in bewilderment. They had never seen Lu Yundi so angry. Madam Hu hurried forward, trying to ease the atmosphere, but was stopped by Lu Yundi's eyes.
"Madam Hu, please go down." Lu Yundi said coldly.
Madam Hu nodded helplessly and stepped aside. Other people in the mansion also stepped aside, leaving only Lu Yundi and Ye Wanxue to confront each other.
"Lu Yundi, I..." Ye Wanxue wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Lu Yundi.
"You don't have to say anything. I know what you're thinking. You thought that I was unwell and you could take advantage of it to usurp the throne, right? You thought Jiang Jilian would depose me because of you? You're wrong, Ye Wanxue, you're too naive."
Ye Wanxue's face turned red and white. She gritted her teeth and held back her tears: "I didn't mean that. I just... I just want to feel the warmth of home."
Lu Yundi sneered: "You are provoking me and the rules of Zhenxing Marquis Mansion!"
Lu Yundi's eyes were as cold as ice, and her words revealed an unquestionable majesty. She approached Ye Wanxue, and the disdain in her eyes became more and more obvious: "Experience the warmth of home? You are just a concubine, how dare you say such arrogant words in front of this lady!"
Ye Wanxue's body trembled slightly. She bit her lips tightly, trying to hold back the tears that were about to burst out. But the grievance and anger in her heart made it impossible for her to remain silent: "Lu Yundi, although I am a concubine, I am also a member of the Zhenxing Marquis's Mansion. I have the right to sit there. Isn't it too much for you to treat me like this?"
Lu Yundi snorted, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes: "Power? What power do you have? Do you think that the main seat is something you can sit in casually? That is the position of the mistress of the Zhenxing Marquis's Mansion. How dare you, a little concubine, covet it?"
A trace of determination flashed in Ye Wanxue's eyes. She straightened her back and said in a weak but firm voice: "Although I am a concubine, I am favored by Jiang Jilian. I have the right to sit there. Lu Yundi, you shouldn't treat me like this."
Lu Yundi's face darkened, her eyes widened, anger burning in her eyes: "Are you threatening me? Ye Wanxue, do you think that just because you have Jiang Jilian's favor, you can be arrogant in front of me? I tell you, the master of Zhenxing Marquis Mansion is me, not you!"
Although everyone in the mansion had already left, there were still a few people hiding in the dark, eavesdropping.
"Lu Yundi, Jiang Jilian will see you treating me like this." There was a hint of pleading in Ye Wanxue's voice. She knew that at this moment, only Jiang Jilian could save her.
Lu Yundi sneered: "Jiang Jilian? He is just a man. Don't you know how sincere he is? Do you think he will destroy me for you? You are too naive, Ye Wanxue."
Ye Wanxue's tears finally burst out. She wiped them away with her hands, her eyes full of determination: "Even so, I want him to see your true face. Lu Yundi, I won't let it go like this."
Lu Yundi's eyes turned cold. She stretched out her hand and slapped Ye Wanxue again: "What do you think you can do? You are just a concubine. Do you think you can shake me?"
Ye Wanxue's body swayed, but she did not fall. She raised her head and looked at Lu Yundi firmly: "Lu Yundi, I will not give up just like that. I will let Jiang Jilian see your true face, and I will let him know who is worth cherishing."
Lu Yundi's expression became more and more gloomy. She looked at Ye Wanxue coldly: "Okay, just wait and see. Let's see whether you can shake me or I can make you disappear from this mansion."
Ye Wanxue covered her slapped face and slowly retreated. Lu Yundi sat in the main seat, staring at Ye Wanxue's departing back with cold eyes.
......
Inside Rongxi Hall, the mahogany furniture exudes a faint sandalwood scent, and exquisite embroidery is dotted in every corner, showing its luxury.
Yu sat at the head of the table, chatting with the matchmaker with a smile on her face, creating a harmonious atmosphere. Jiang Yuqi sat at the side in a proper manner, looking like a flower about to bloom.
Looking at her daughter, Yu couldn't help but feel proud. She turned to the matchmaker and said with a smile, "Yuqi has been smart since she was young, and now she has grown into a lady from a noble family. Her brother Ji Lian also often praises her, saying that Yuqi is the pride of our family."
The matchmaker smiled and nodded, with admiration in her eyes: "Yes, Miss Jiang is indeed a beautiful woman with both talent and beauty. I heard that Young Marquis Chu also has a good impression of Miss Jiang. If these two can get married, they are really a perfect match."
When Jiang Yuqi heard this, her face flushed. She glanced at the matchmaker secretly, then quickly lowered her head. She thought to herself, how happy it would be if she could marry Chu Qirui. I hope my mother and the matchmaker can make this marriage happen.
Yu saw her daughter's shyness, she smiled and said to the matchmaker: "Yuqi is an introvert and not good at expressing herself. But I can see her feelings for Young Marquis Chu. It's a pity that there is a huge gap in status between our two families, so I'm afraid this marriage will be difficult to achieve."
Hearing this, the matchmaker gently patted Yu's hand and said, "Madam, don't worry. This marriage is not impossible. Although the young Marquis Chu comes from a famous family, he has a humble character and is not particular about trivial matters. Moreover, he is full of praise for the eldest lady's talent and beauty. As long as our two families work together, this marriage may not be impossible."
Jiang Yuqi was delighted when she heard this. She looked up at the bride's wife, her eyes gleaming with anticipation. Seeing this, the bride's wife smiled and continued, "However, this matter still needs to be considered in the long run. After all, the Chu family and our Zhenxing Marquis Mansion have a huge gap in status. We have to find a suitable time for the two elders to meet and discuss it properly."
