Chapter 82 Lu Zhinian : I won’t break off the engagement

Jiyun Lane is full of "happiness", but the Lu family is in chaos.

Looking at Lu Zhinian with a gray face, Old Lady Lu slapped the table hard.

"Damn it, that bastard!!"

It was obvious that the things she sent herself in the past were hers, and she tried every means to please her and wanted to integrate into the Lu family. Now she actually dared to settle these foreign objects with them, and even dared to strip his grandson's clothes in public and throw them away from Tang Mansion. They came out and made the entire Lu family a joke.

Mrs. Lu was so angry that she trembled all over: "Then Song Tangning dared to humiliate Sanlang like this and let those servants humiliate the Lu family. Do she still want to marry into our Lu family?!"

"If she really wants to do it, how could she break up with us?"

Lu Chongyuan 's words made several people in the hall look up suddenly, and he pinched the beads on his wrist. He remembered the words that were circulating outside, and his expression was cold: "The Song family girl probably had already given birth to a divorce. I'm thinking about it."

At least she didn't want to continue with Lu Zhinian.

"How could it be..." Old Mrs. Lu was shocked .

No one knows how much Song Tangning relies on Lu Zhinian better than her. She is full of thoughts on Lu Zhinian, and her bones are tamed by her. The Lu family said that she dare not go right, so why did she suddenly have a rebellious bone?

Lu Zhao stood aside and looked at the box of things placed in the hall. He didn't care whether Song Tangning was rebellious. He just remembered the servant from Jiyun Lane standing in front of the mansion, reciting the items in the box in front of everyone. How embarrassing it is.

"In March of the eleventh year of Yong'an, Langjun Lu gave a wooden hairpin, and the girl gave a gift to the clear mud jade inkstone, and three pairs of red gold pearls inlaid with ruby ​​faces."

"In April of the eleventh year of Yong'an, a girl gave a picture of Mr. Feng He, a great scholar of the previous dynasty, Lin'an, and two old chapters in Lanting. Mrs. Lu also gave a string of coral beads."

"In January of the 12th year of Yong'an, I will give Mrs. Lu a water-hearted bottle and a set of pine crane and red sandalwood screens ... "

Lu Zhao looked at the things written on the volume.

It would be fine if it was just a Lu family item. But the people in Jiyun Lane had recited a gift from the Lu family in front of the door, and added a word about the things Song Tangning sent.

All the things Song Tangning sent to the Lu family were treasures, but the "rewarding gifts" of the Lu family were almost all casual and useless things. Moreover, it would take Song Tangning five or six times to return the last time. In this comparison, The Lu family's stingy and stingy face was undoubtedly revealed.

Whenever Lu Zhao thinks about the strange gazes when the people outside the door looked at him, he feels suffocated.

"Mother, Song Tangning has been engaged to the mansion for many years. Our Lu family is not short of gold and silver. In the past, you gave those relatives and juniors more than this. Why are you so stingy to Song Tangning?"

Lu Zhao looked at the recorded ones on the volume and said embarrassedly:

"In the past, Song Tangning sent things to the mansion in big quantities . I just thought it was a courtesy dealing with her. But how could you just give her these? After ten years of engagement, I couldn't even fill a box. Do you know I know what people outside say about us. I was so embarrassed that I had no place to put my face when I heard the comments from those people just now."

Everyone said that the Lu family was greedy for an orphan girl, and the face of the aristocratic family was stripped of clean.

Mrs. Lu's face turned blue and white when she was told by her own son.

Lu Zhinian also pursed his lips tightly and looked down at the objects in the box.

He had long been accustomed to Song Tangning's existence. He knew that she liked him and relied on him. No matter how cold he looked, the little girl would always call him "Brother Lu" in a soft voice and follow him step by step.

Sometimes when he is in a good mood or is impatient by her, he will give her some small things, which he doesn't care about, but no matter what it is, the little girl will be happy after getting it. collection.

The wooden hairpin in Lu Zhao's mouth was interesting when he saw a small stall vendor carving on the roadside when he was bored, so he bought it casually.

That day, Song Tangning came to see him crying. He thought she was crying, so he gave her the wooden hairpin. She thought it was his hand carved for her, and she held the hairpin and was foggy. He smiled and said, "Brother Lu is so nice."

After a long time, Song Tangning was wearing a silk and brocade skirt and delicate bun, and always had that simple wooden hairpin in her black hair. Even if she was laughed at by others, she still ignored it. It's so happy.

When Lu Zhinian remembered the little girl who called him "Brother Lu", she felt as if someone had clenched her heart and suffocated in pain.

Lu Chongyuan looked up at Lu Zhinian: "Sanlang, what do you think?"

"What else can I think? Of course, I am resigning from the marriage. Our Lu family cannot tolerate this great Buddha..." The second uncle of the Lu family said angrily.

But Lu Zhinian suddenly said, "I won't withdraw my marriage."

The second uncle of the Lu family turned his head and was full of anger: "Sanlang, the Song girl has stepped on your face on the ground. What else do you want to do if you don't retreat from the wedding?!"

Lu Zhinian pursed his pale lips, remembering the words Song Tangning had said to him in Jiyun Lane before, and felt unwilling to accept that he liked Song Tangning. Even though he did feel pity for Song Shulan at the beginning, the future Mrs. Lu in his heart Only Song Tangning.

The second uncle of the Lu family frowned: "Brother, do you still want the Song daughter to be her daughter-in-law?"

"The Duke of Song is gone now, and Song Hong probably won't have a chance to come out again when he is imprisoned this time. The Duke of Song's mansion, which was harmed by the Song family, is full of people, and he ignores the affection of his family. How can such a cruel and vicious woman marry into the Lu family? ? Besides, he humiliated Sanlang like this. If the Lu family accepts her again, how will others look at us in the future?"

Lu Zhao also disliked Song Tangning's cruelty. He turned his head to look at Lu Chongyuan : "Father, why not give up the marriage..."

"You can't give up!"

Mrs. Lu suddenly spoke.

Several people in the hall suddenly turned their heads and looked up. Old Mrs. Lu pinched the hands in her sleeves and her lips turned pale: "This marriage was decided by the Queen, for the sake of not only the Duke of Song, but also the Fourth Prince needs it. Those connections left by the Rong family."

"And there is a lot of controversy outside. If the Lu family really resigned from Song Tangning, wouldn't it be confirmed that the Lu family treated Song Tangning badly, and it would also make people feel that the Lu family was unkind and heartless. Seeing that the Duke of Song's mansion was declining, it abandoned the marriage contract. ."

Lu Zhao and Lu Qin, the second son of the Lu family , both frowned, while Lu Chongyuan looked at Old Lady Lu.

Mrs. Lu forced her face to support her: "Although Rong Qian'an died, there are many people who remember him in the court. People who have received favors from the Rong family will never see him being bullied. Previously, the Duke of Song was in charge. The reason why they failed so quickly is that there are many people who have contributed to the fire."

"Sanlang's career has just begun, and the fourth prince is also at the critical moment of fighting for the throne . It is impossible for the Empress to agree to let the two families retire..."
