Raising a wife? The mistress of the Hou family divorced and remarried her younger uncle

Chapter 219 Huang Yao
Su Qingwan calculated the time carefully. When the carriage stopped steadily in front of the Lu family mansion, it was exactly when the marquis's wife said goodbye and left.

The two groups of people met at the door. Madam Hou recognized Su Qingwan at a glance, and her eyes instantly filled with love. If Lin hadn't been beside her, she would have been unable to resist approaching Su Qingwan to get close to her. At this moment, Madam Hou could only suppress her inner emotions, got on the carriage gracefully, and left slowly with her entourage. Lin glanced at Su Qingwan coldly, and decided in her heart that the divorce could not be delayed, and she must not let this woman in front of her delay her son's bright future.

"Zhaolan, come in with me!" Lin said in a cold tone, and then she took the lead and walked into the mansion.

Su Qingwan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a confident smile. She knew in her heart that her aunt's visit was just in time, and the effect would be much better than a direct confrontation with Lin. She followed Lin slowly and walked into the flower hall together.

Lin dismissed the attendants and couldn't wait to start the topic of divorce. She said directly: "Zhaolan, you and Feng'er have been discussing the divorce for several months. It's time to sign the contract. Our two families are destined to end, but you have made your business prosperous in Beijing over the years with the power of the Lu family. Even if you want to divorce, you can't take all the dowry with you. We have argued for so long over the dowry, and every time we had an unpleasant argument. I don't want to make it too difficult for you. How about this, let's both take a step back. You leave 100,000 silver coins, and I will let Feng'er write you a divorce letter. From now on, we will get married and have nothing to do with each other."

Lu Zhu was standing aside. When she heard this, she became so angry that her face turned red and she almost started to curse.

One hundred thousand silver coins, this Lin family is really asking for a lot!
Lu Shaoqing's annual salary was only a little over one hundred taels of silver, but she actually asked for one hundred thousand, which was simply going to drain the girl's savings.

Su Qingwan smacked her lips lightly and said bluntly, "You are so greedy!"

"This is the compensation you should give to the Lu family! You bought so many gold and silver notes, don't tell me you can't come up with silver. If you really don't have cash, you can leave the gold and silver notes, I can accept that!" Lin had already secretly inquired about it. The court recognized the value of gold and silver notes. Some people had already taken gold and silver notes to exchange them, and the Ministry of Revenue acknowledged it. After Prime Minister Lu was raided, all his property was confiscated and returned to the royal family. Now the Ministry of Revenue has silver to exchange. She knew that the Xie family had purchased a lot of gold and silver notes, so naturally she was unwilling to let go of this piece of fat meat that was right in front of her.

Su Qingwan was filled with annoyance and really didn't want to argue with Lin over money anymore.

But every time she felt annoyed, she couldn't get over the fact that Lin and Lin Feng were both responsible for her sister's death. Lin was still thinking about her sister's dowry, which was simply a daydream.

"Mother, I don't want to divorce again." Su Qingwan picked up the teacup, took a sip slowly, and deliberately said this to anger Lin.

"What did you say?" Lin's face suddenly changed. She never expected Su Qingwan to suddenly regret it. If she didn't divorce, how could Feng'er marry into the Duke's Mansion? This was related to her son's future!

"Lu Jing is now the regent king, with tremendous power, second only to the emperor. Why should I divorce him?" Su Qingwan put down her teacup and continued calmly, "He has been coveting me for a long time. I stay in the mansion and have secret affairs with him. I can have whatever I want, which is better than being alone and helpless after the divorce."

Lin stood up with a bang, her eyes wide open, and shouted, "Xie Zhaolan, you are so shameless! Ziyu has been self-disciplined and well-behaved since he was a child, how could he possibly covet you? It's obvious that you took advantage of your beauty to deliberately seduce him and ruin his reputation!"

"He is young and full of vigor. How can he control himself when he meets a beautiful young woman like me who is full of charm? I have seen the Princess of Southwest from a distance. She is just so-so, with an ordinary appearance. I don't mind that Lu Jing already has a wife. After all, a wife should be virtuous and a concubine should be pretty. I was his eldest sister-in-law. If I were to be taken into his mansion after the divorce, it would definitely cause a lot of criticism. Lu Jing probably doesn't want to have so much trouble. So, why should I divorce? I am his eldest sister-in-law in name, but I can go to him at night. At his age, how can he resist facing a beauty like me?"

Coincidentally, Lu Jing happened to be returning home today. When he passed by the flower hall, he happened to hear Su Qingwan's shocking words and was stunned on the spot. This was simply unbearable to hear!
If other people heard this, his and Su Qingwan's reputation would be ruined. After all, there were already rumors about their uncle and sister-in-law spreading in the mansion.

Li An followed behind Lu Jing, secretly shocked, thinking that the eldest young lady was really bold to say such words.

My master clearly loves the princess, so how could he be seduced by her beauty?
He clenched his fists in anger and just as he was about to rush into the flower hall to stop it, he heard Lin's angry roar: "You have no shame! Xie Zhaolan, it's not enough that you ruined my Feng'er, you also want to ruin Ziyu, absolutely impossible!"

"Before Lu Jing was crowned king, I wanted to sign a divorce letter and completely sever ties with your Lu family, but you didn't want to. Now you want to control me and ask for 100,000 silver coins. Mother, you are greedy and there is no room for negotiation on this matter!" Su Qingwan responded without showing any weakness.

When Lu Jing heard this, he stopped abruptly.

It turns out that the aunt refused to give the eldest sister-in-law the divorce papers because she wanted one hundred thousand silver coins?

Lin was so angry that she was shaking all over. She gnashed her teeth and said, "Zi Yu is already the regent. He can make things happen at will. Besides, he is engaged to the princess of Southwest County. If you really dare to have such a delusion and ruin his marriage, believe it or not, he will kill you!"

"I don't believe it!" Su Qingwan smiled calmly, her expression full of confidence, "He can't bear to leave. Mother, we fell off the cliff together, a man and a woman were together for so long, we should have..."

"Sister-in-law!" Just when Su Qingwan's words were about to completely ruin the reputation of both of them, Lu Jing shouted to stop her, strode into the flower hall, and looked at Su Qingwan with a cold and serious look.

Su Qingwan's cheeks flushed instantly. It didn't matter that she just made up these nonsense. She didn't care even if it ruined her reputation. After all, only Lin was present in the hall. Even if she made Lin mad to death, she would have no psychological burden.

But these shameless words were heard by Lu Jing himself, and Su Qingwan felt a little embarrassed for the first time in her life. Lu Jing always attached great importance to etiquette, and now she was making up stories about him coveting his eldest sister-in-law and ignoring the moral code, and she was caught in the act. Su Qingwan felt her face burning and red.

"Sister-in-law, you and I are innocent, please don't speak nonsense!" Lu Jing said seriously with a stern face.

"Oh..." Su Qingwan raised her eyebrows, and seeing Lin's fearful expression, she suddenly had an idea and continued, "It's not completely innocent. You were in the cave when I undressed at the foot of the cliff that day."

Hearing this, Lu Jing was speechless and stood there in shock. Lin was also shocked. She had never expected Su Qingwan to say such a thing. For a moment, the atmosphere in the flower hall was weird and fell into silence.
