Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around

Granny Liu didn't believe it was true. Her son was so good, how could he have a bad fate? It was all nonsense from those people. "Eldest son, I forbid you to talk about this anymore. Those doctors in the prefectural city must be quacks. They have no ability and they only came up with such a ridiculous excuse to absolve themselves."

And that so-called master you mentioned, maybe the people at the clinic are in cahoots with him.

"Mother, that's absolutely impossible. We haven't even met the master. He knows why we're here. How can you say it's not effective?"

"See? I told you he was talking nonsense. He can tell fortunes without even meeting you. He's even worse than those charlatans on the street. Those quacks probably already have their clinics lined up with him to protect their reputations, just waiting for you to fall into their trap!"

When Granny Liu said this, Lu Yunping felt that there was some truth to it. "Mother, the doctor said that my brother's energy and spirit will get worse and worse in the future, his hair will slowly turn white, and he will slowly get old. The reason why Doctor Yang knocked my brother unconscious was to prevent excessive consumption of his energy and spirit and to delay aging."

You can't possibly call Dr. Yang every time my brother falls ill, and you don't even know when he'll fall ill. How will we be able to take the imperial examinations in the future? Mother, think about it carefully.

The villagers said Cuicui gave birth, so I'm going to see her.

"What are you looking at? You gave birth to a money-losing child! What did she say back then? She guaranteed you'd have a son! Where's the son now?"

"Mother, no matter what, she is still your granddaughter, my own daughter. You can't treat her like this."

Lu Decai waved his hand, "Go on, go see your wife."

Lu Yunping turned and left the house. Wang Cuicui knew that Lu Yunping had returned and was waiting anxiously in the room. She had a lot of grievances she wanted to tell her husband.

As soon as Lu Yunping entered the room, Wang Cuicui burst into tears. "Husband, you're finally back! My mother wants to divorce me and won't let me and the child live. You must stand up for me and the child!"

"Look, this is our daughter. Look how lovely she is, she looks just like her husband."

Lu Yunping looked at the baby; it was so small that you couldn't see anything clearly. "The child is growing so well."

"Husband, I didn't give birth to a son this time. Will you despise me?"

"How could I look down on you? We're still young. If we want a son, we can have one later. Don't worry about your mother, I'll take care of her."

"My dear husband, I'm so glad I have you. I made the right choice in choosing you. Once I've recovered, let's try to have another child, so we can have both a son and a daughter."

"Okay, I've been thinking about you all the time since I went to the capital. Look what I bought for you."

Lu Yunping took out the rouge. "Look, this is what I bought for you in the prefectural city. All the ladies and young ladies in the prefectural city use this. Use this after you finish your postpartum confinement. I guarantee you'll look beautiful."

"Husband~" Wang Cuicui nestled her head against Lu Yunping's chest in a coquettish manner.

"Wife, you'd better hide this well, don't let Mother see it, understand?"

"I know, I will definitely not let Mother see it."

But my husband and mother only took care of me for the first three days, and then they ignored me. Every day, they just had Wenxuan bring me a bowl of brown rice porridge. I wasn't eating well, so I didn't have any breast milk, and the baby wasn't getting enough to eat. How could he grow up?

"I was really hoping for a grandson, but it turned out to be a granddaughter. I'm naturally not happy about it. I won't interfere with you, but I will make sure you and the baby have a good diet."

"Husband, how is my brother-in-law?"

"That's fine. Don't worry about it. Just focus on your postpartum recovery. You'll know everything after you're done with your postpartum care."

"Husband, if you hadn't told me, I would have been constantly worried about my husband's health. How could I have a peaceful postpartum period?"

Lu Yunping thought that since everyone in the village already knew, it wouldn't hurt to tell her. So he recounted Lu Yunzhou's trip to the prefectural city for medical treatment. "That's how it is. We'll discuss the details after my younger brother is better."

"Husband, since that's the case, why don't we marry Liu? We'll gain both wealth and family fortune, wouldn't that be a win-win situation?"

"That's what I think too, and I think my younger brother feels the same way, it's just that about Mother..."

"My lord, this matter must be accomplished; it will be a great benefit to everyone."

"Yes, I will persuade Mother, and my little brother will too."

The two talked for a while longer. Lu Yunzhou was also very tired, so he lay down next to her and fell asleep. Wang Cuicui was very smug. "You old hag, as long as I have your son under my control, what can you do to me? We'll see."

"Old man, do you believe what they say?" Granny Liu's eyes were filled with tears. She didn't believe it, she didn't believe it.

"I've thought about it carefully, and maybe it really is possible? We'll talk about everything after Zhou'er wakes up."

The couple stayed by Lu Yunzhou's side. Lu Wenxuan and his sister secretly came to stand outside the door to take a look. They were very sad to learn that their second uncle was still sick and had not yet woken up. If their second uncle died, there would be even less anyone to care about them.

After an unknown amount of time, Lu Yunzhou woke up. Granny Liu cried again, "Zhou'er, you're finally awake! You scared your mother to death!"

"Mom, I'm fine. I'll be fine after a good night's sleep."

"Don't lie to us. Doctor Yang told everyone in the village about your treatment in the prefectural city. Zhou'er, is what he said true?"

"What? He told everyone about it, and in front of the whole village?"

"yes!"

"Damn it, is he trying to kill me?"

"Big brother, big brother, where's big brother? Call him here right now!"

"Don't be angry, I'll go get someone right away."

"Boss, you come out here right now! You got hooked up with that slut as soon as you got back! Have you no shame? You shameless hussy! I don't have time to deal with you right now, but as soon as I'm free, I'll dump you right now."

Wang Cuicui nudged Lu Yunping, "Husband, husband, wake up, your mother is calling you from outside."

Upon hearing his mother's scolding, Lu Yunping immediately sat up. "Mother, why are you shouting like that? You've scared the children awake."

"You good-for-nothing, you can't live without a woman! Your brother's awake and wants you to come over!"

"Oh, little brother is awake." He thought something serious had happened, but there was nothing to be surprised about; he was used to it.

As soon as Lu Yunping entered the room, Lu Yunzhou immediately questioned, "Brother, Doctor Yang revealed my secret. Why didn't you stop him? My plans are all ruined. Maybe Liu will find out about this tomorrow. How am I supposed to marry her now?"

"This was a decision made after discussing it with Doctor Yang. You don't know what happened at the time. The village said you had contracted the plague and wouldn't let us into the village. They said they would send us to the yamen. At that time, you were unconscious, so we had no choice but to tell the truth."

"You guys are really foolish. Why don't you go to the village chief and tell him about it quietly? He'll definitely be able to handle it."

Lu Yunping slapped his forehead. "That's right, how did he come up with that idea back then?"

"Young man, everyone will find out about this sooner or later; it won't affect your marriage to Lady Liu."

"You're really infuriating! How could it not have an impact? If he didn't know about this, then when I went to his door to beg for his hand in marriage, it was out of genuine remorse and sincerity. He would definitely agree to come back with me. But if he knew about this, knew that I had ulterior motives and didn't truly want to marry him but only wanted to use him, do you think he would come back with me?"

"Ah! Little brother, what do you suggest we do now?"

"Quickly go and invite the village chief and Doctor Yang over. Let's discuss this quickly. Maybe this matter hasn't spread out of the village yet. It was already late when I got back. If it's past tonight, I'm afraid we won't be able to stop it."

"Little brother, don't worry, I'll go get someone right away and be right back." Lu Yunping hurriedly ran off.
