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

Chapter 90 Confused
Luzhu knew her taste, so she chopped the pork very finely, added vegetables and chilies, and fried it until the meat was fragrant and mouth-watering, the aroma covering up the smell of incense from the ancestral hall.

"Third Young Master, would you like to eat something?" Lu Zhu asked politely.

Lu Jing remained silent, his attitude firm.

Su Qingwan said calmly, "You knocked the Lu family's ancestral tablet to the ground, do you still care about this little etiquette?"

Lu Jing also remembered the tablets all over the floor, including his father's. At that moment, it was no different from smashing the ancestral hall, so it was not unfair for him to be punished to kneel in the ancestral hall to reflect.

"Ancestral temple, sister-in-law should be more sincere."

"He is not my ancestor, why should I kneel down and worship him so seriously?" Su Qingwan said lightly. It would be fine if she just pretended to do it, but she was asked to kneel down sincerely. Isn't this a joke?

"Your descendants must also kneel down and burn incense here."

"Descendants?" Su Qingwan laughed, as if she had heard a joke. In the dim candlelight, Su Qingwan's brows were particularly cold. "How could I possibly give birth to children for someone who wants to kill me?"

How could she and Lu Feng have descendants?

Lu Jing also knew that his brother and sister-in-law had come to this point and their relationship was over.

"Li Xueying has been imprisoned in the Shenjie Division, and my brother has lost everything. He is living a life worse than death. Sister-in-law... this matter should be concluded." Lu Jing glanced sideways, as if asking for a promise, but more like a warning.

Su Qingwan was quite happy. Both Li Xueying and Lu Feng paid a price. Li Xueying was doomed to die. She couldn't stand staying in a place like Shenjiesi for even a month.

Lu Feng... She wanted Lu Feng and Li Xueying to go to the underworld and become a pair of wild mandarin ducks.

But Lu Jing warned her that if he helped her get revenge, she had to give Lu Feng a chance to live. If she continued to pester him, Lu Jing and she would become mortal enemies and be targeted by the Imperial Guards. It would be extremely difficult for her to unite with her old subordinates in Beijing to overturn the case.

No one wants to go against the Jinyiwei.

Lu Feng has lost his official status and is living a life worse than death. She could show mercy and give him a chance to live.

"Lu Jing, you are such a good brother." Su Qingwan's voice was full of sarcasm, "Lu Feng hit you, he doesn't know what's good for him."

Lu Jing remained silent. Rumors are like a knife that can completely disfigure a person.

"After a while, I will divorce Lu Feng. Don't worry, now that I have taken revenge, my wish has been fulfilled. I will have nothing to do with your Lu family in the future."

Su Qingwan paused, "I'm afraid that my father and mother may not allow me to divorce. After all, the joke I made tonight was really big enough."

She had a hint of meaning, and Lu Jing understood it.

Lu Feng accused him of coveting the eldest sister-in-law and having an affair with her. They might not believe it, but they also might not... believe it at all.

Gossip is a sharp knife.

The blood seals the throat.

After kneeling in the ancestral hall for a whole night, Lu Jing's face turned pale. His waist injury had always been very serious. He had not recovered after coming down the cliff. After returning to Beijing, he was exhausted and had not even changed the medicine. After kneeling for several hours, the wound was bleeding.

When the sky was just getting light, he saw double images before his eyes. The ancestral hall was filled with light and shadow, and the ancestral tablets were piled up like a spider web that made it hard for him to breathe. His body swayed slightly, and he fell into an embrace with a warm fragrance.

"Lu Jing!" There was a gentle voice in his ear, and the embrace was warm and soft. His hot face was pressed against the slightly cool neck. The familiar breath brought him back to the southwest two years ago. Lu Jing called out a name in a confused and hoarse voice.

Su Qingwan's blood froze. She turned her head to look at the face so close to her. She couldn't help but stretch out her hand to touch his face, but her hand fell too weak.

He was forbidden to her.

Li An hurried into the ancestral hall and was surprised to see Su Qingwan hugging Lu Jing. He couldn't help but look up at the ancestors of the Lu family, and half-knelt to help Lu Jing over.

Li An said, "Madam, the young master has offended you."

"Life is important!" Su Qingwan said calmly, "If he kneels down again, he will die."

When Lu Jing fell into coma, Lu Shaoqing realized how badly he was injured. Zhang's eyes were red and swollen, and she said in front of Lu Shaoqing that if anything happened to Lu Jing, she would hang herself in the ancestral hall.

Lu Shaoqing had a terrible headache. What happened in the ancestral hall frightened him and he couldn't sleep all night. Lu Shaoqing strictly ordered everyone to keep silent. Zhang still didn't know why Lu Jing was punished to kneel.

Lu Jing fell into a coma, and Su Qingwan followed suit and pretended to faint. Lu Zhu hurriedly carried Su Qingwan back to Meilan Garden. Lu Shaoqing didn't want to cause any death, so the kneeling punishment came to an end.

The Lu family also fell silent in the capital. Under Su Qingwan's order, the Huainan assassins left the capital to avoid the limelight. Su Qingwan was confined to Meilan Garden by the Lin family. She did not want to be too conspicuous, so she recuperated in Meilan Garden.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter, and the peonies in the garden had faded, leaving the courtyard full of greenery. Luzhu and Qingqing dug a lotus pond in the courtyard and raised a few koi. Although Su Qingwan was under house arrest, she lived a carefree life.

Lu Zhu was responsible for her food, clothing, housing and transportation. She was able to go out to buy things every day. Lin was so sad that she fell ill, and the household supplies in the mansion were handed over to Lu Yunshu.

Lu Yunshu would come to talk to her every other day and ask about the housekeeper's affairs. Su Qingwan would tell her everything she knew. Lu Feng locked himself in Fanghua Garden, drinking every day, and was so drunk that he didn't know what year it was.

Su Qingwan had no worries about food and clothing and lived a very comfortable life.

After she recovered from her illness, she started raising fish by the pond, and the koi in the pond were all raised by her to be plump and plump.

Lu Zhu said, "The incident of Li Xueying sending someone to the farm to kill you caused a lot of controversy. Li Xueying's reputation was completely ruined, and it also caused the third daughter of the Li family to break off the engagement with Prince Jing. Strangely enough, no one discussed Lu Feng and Li Xueying's conspiracy to murder his wife. Public opinion said that Li Xueying was jealous and murderous, and Lu Feng was dismissed because of her involvement, but the reputation of the Lu family was saved."

By the pool, Su Qingwan was scattering fish food and said with a smile, "If what happened in the Yangxin Palace spread throughout the city, where would the royal family's reputation be? The emperor trusts Lu Jing. The Lu family's foundation is too shallow, and he wants to protect Lu Jing and will not completely destroy the Lu family."

"The Emperor also trusts and respects the Earl of Anping, so why did he allow Li Xueying's reputation to be ruined?"

"The Li family has deep roots. Even though Li Xueying was killed, the situation will be completely different in a few years. Who will care about Li Xueying? The Anping Marquis' Mansion is still the Anping Marquis' Mansion." Su Qingwan said calmly, "Our emperor is very good at the art of balance. Everyone is his chess piece."

It would be even more difficult for her to overturn the verdict.

Lu Jing is still investigating the assassins in Huainan. Now she can only lie low and wait for the opportunity.

After Lu Jing fell into a coma that day, he stayed in the mansion for three days and returned to the Jinyiwei Yamen three days later. She never saw Lu Jing again in the mansion. There was a martial arts training ground between her Meilan Garden and Lu Jing's yard.

In the past, when she was enjoying the cool air in the courtyard, she often heard the sound of Lu Jing wielding a sword in the martial arts training ground.

She enjoys it!

It’s not that she liked listening to Lu Jing practicing martial arts, but she always thought of the Huainan Palace when she was young. There was also a martial arts training ground next to her yard, and she often heard her brothers practicing martial arts.
