Chapter 126: Who's going to be cannon fodder
Seeing that her mother asked if she didn't want to marry Wang Gongzi again no matter what, and she must withdraw from the marriage, Lu Yunzhen nodded without hesitation. "Please let the mother call the shots for her daughter."
The third lady hesitated for a long time, and finally sighed. "It's impossible to quit." She said with difficulty word by word, and when she saw that her daughter's face immediately changed greatly, she quickly patted her hand again. "Don't worry, I mean to withdraw from the marriage at this juncture is equivalent to a big slap in the face of Shangshufu. It's nothing to offend Lord Shangshu, but if you offend Mrs. Wang, when she relaxes her breath, she will definitely take revenge on you. ”
"What are you afraid of, I will already be the crown princess of Jiang Guo by then, it would be good if I didn't fix her, and I was afraid that she would retaliate against me?" Lu Yunzhen said immediately.
"What my mother is afraid of is in case your father can't be a general." The third lady said softly: "Good daughter, you have to believe your mother, since you feel that Wang Gongzi's future has been ruined and you don't want to marry him again, your mother will not force you to marry you." But there is no need for us to offend Mrs. Wang, at least not so badly. Let's just say that my mother is reluctant to let you go, and wants to keep you for another two years, and when you get married in July next year, let Yunhui marry her. ”
Lu Yunzhen was stunned, "Mother, you are so wise." She said heartily.
Before a word fell, the door curtain was raised, Lu Yunhui rushed in, and knelt in front of the third lady with a 'plop', "Madam, you must not push me into the fire!" ”
The third lady and Lu Yunzhen were stunned, the third lady was weak-hearted, and while reaching out to help, she also asked, "Yunhui, when did you come over?" ”
"I'm worried about Sister Yunzhen, when she came out of the old lady's room, she quietly followed and stayed outside." Lu Yunhui looked at the third lady and said bluntly.
The faces of the third lady and Lu Yunzhen were both red.
"I've been eavesdropping for so long, I'm just afraid that my legs are sore, right?" Although Lu Yunzhen had a fever on her face, she still smiled reluctantly and quipped.
Even if she never looked at this sister-in-law, Lu Yunhui had been bent on her and her mother since she was a child, and now her mother and daughter secretly discussed to arrest her, but she overheard her. Although Lu Yunzhen was not ashamed, her face was a little indestructible after all. Of course, even if she can't grind it off, she will never admit her mistake and apologize, so she just joked.
Lu Yunhui hugged the third lady's thigh and cried.
"Don't cry, get up and talk first." The third lady was hugged by her legs, so she had to comfort her.
"Third lady, I will be more filial to you in the future, please don't push me into the fire pit." As Lu Yunhui spoke, she suddenly raised her head, and an eager glint flashed in her teardrop-dripping eyes, "Sister Yunwan is older than me, it should be her marrying Wang Gongzi." ”
I haven't heard you call Sister Lu Yunwan for more than three years, so I will think of her. Lu Yunzhen secretly slandered herself, but did not speak. She was only ashamed that she was young, she was not as old as her mother, and she still wanted to leave a way out for Shangshufu, who had such a big scandal, and she didn't care who was pushed down the fire pit.
On the contrary, the third lady hesitated, "Yun Wan is sick, how can she get married?" ”
"Her ringworm has always only rotted on her body, but it has never been rotten on her face, and besides, the wedding date is July next year, maybe she will be fine by then!" In order not to marry Wang Gongzi, Lu Yunhui willingly said for the first time that her sister's illness would be cured.
Of course, the third lady didn't believe that Lu Yunwan's lice could be cured, but Lu Yunhui hugged her thighs and cried and begged, even if she was so hard, she couldn't give up her face and insist on taking her to the top of the tank, so she had to nod her indiscriminately and tell Lu Yunhui to say. "You are not allowed to say a word about these words you heard today, I will write a letter to the third general first, and ask him what he means?"
Lu Yunhui nodded again and again, "Don't worry, madam, I won't even say anything to my mother." As he spoke, he lay on the ground and kowtowed to the third lady.
"As long as you are obedient and obedient, I will naturally love you and will not harm you." The third lady smiled and said comfortingly.
Lu Yunzhen and her mother are used to singing red face and white face, and when she saw her mother comforting, she immediately snorted coldly, "If you dare to spread these words, don't blame me for not caring about sisterhood." ”
You want to take me to marry you, and you didn't care about any sisterhood. Lu Yunhui thought in her heart, but her tearful face showed a well-behaved and flattering smile, "I know that my sister loves me the most, don't worry, I will never talk nonsense." ”
That's what he said, but how could Lu Yunhui really rest assured that the third lady and Lu Yunzhen, she didn't care about the unbearable soreness of standing and kneeling on her legs, and she had been serving diligently beside her with a pen and grinding ink, until she saw that the third lady had finished writing a letter to the third general, and saw that it was indeed Lu Yunwan who married Wang Gongzi for Lu Yunzhen, that she sealed the letter with her own hands, said goodbye, and personally sent the letter to the concierge.
Although the military city is far away, the position of the general is vacant, and only the old general sits in the Lu Mansion, so there are heralds going back and forth between the capital and the military city every day, and it is extremely convenient to send letters.
In the evening, the people sent by the eldest lady to inquire about the news reported back one by one, and added many details, but they were generally not much different from Aunt Zhou's words.
The eldest lady brought spring flowers and winter snow to see the third lady.
When the third lady heard it silently, her face turned white and she burst into tears.
Of course, she wouldn't tell the eldest lady that she had written a letter to the third general, wanting to marry her concubine, but she was crying and talking to the eldest lady about her daughter's hard life, and the husband's family that she finally picked out actually had such a thing.
The eldest lady was very relieved to see that she was not as determined to let Lu Yunzhen marry Wang Gongzi as she was in the morning. She also sincerely felt sorry for Lu Yunzhen, and comforted the third lady over and over for a long time, saying that fortunately she was not married, and our children could not get married, so we could choose a good person again.
The third lady only promised, but only said that she couldn't be the master, and she had to write a letter to discuss with the three generals.
Of course, the eldest lady nodded in agreement, and persuaded for a while before saying that she would go to talk back to the old lady and leave.
However, no matter how high the acting skills of the third lady are, she just deceived the eldest lady for one night.
One wife and several concubines in the third room are like fire and water, and they can never keep any secrets.
Early the next morning, the eldest lady heard Chunhua say that the third lady wanted to use Lu Yunwan to replace her own daughter to marry Wang Gongzi, and after being stunned for a while, she laughed dumbly, she really underestimated the third brother and sister.
Because they had just gossiped together yesterday, when Chunhua came to Qiuyue to tell her the news, she also called An Yixin together. An Yixin was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth for a long time, and was once again refreshed by the third lady, and the daughter of a dignified scholar actually thought of playing substitute marriage.
Because she cared about Lu Yunwan, An Yixin suppressed the shock in her heart, inquired carefully, and learned that the three generals had always cared about the affairs of the capital mansion, and the third lady wrote to him just to go through the motions. As long as the third lady makes up her mind, Lu Yunwan will definitely replace Lu Yunzhen to marry Wang Gongzi. (To be continued.) )
