The Flirtatious Prince and His Savage Concubine

Every time Lu Yi mentioned Lu Lingxi's mother, there was a smile in his eyes. Lu Lingxi could see that if her mother was still alive, this couple would definitely be the most enviable.

When I rescued your mother, five years had passed since we first met in Ganye Temple, but I recognized your mother at first sight, but your mother didn't recognize me. I felt very disappointed at that time.

Later, the marriage was decided, and we got married naturally. After the marriage, your mother was still gentle and steady, not as lively and lively as before, and she seemed to be always a little depressed. Your father felt that something was wrong, so he secretly inquired about it.

Only then did I know that since your grandmother had only one child, your mother, and a girl, she could not continue the family line for your grandfather, so your grandfather married several concubines. When the concubines had sons, they became more active.

Your grandmother was a simple-minded person, always at a disadvantage. Gradually, she was instigated by the concubines to become estranged from your grandfather. After being ignored by your grandfather, she always complained about everything and often went crazy, blaming your mother for not having a boy and cutting off her chance of having a son. When your grandmother was not crazy, she was very kind to your mother, telling her to be obedient, virtuous, and to earn a good reputation and a good future for herself. Your grandmother died a few months after she went crazy, and your mother changed her personality from then on.

At this point, Lu Yi looked at Lu Lingxi and said seriously, "So before you were more lively and naughty, your father did not discipline you too much, thinking that your mother would not want to restrain you. Maybe you can win a good reputation by doing so, but you may not be really happy."

Lu Lingxi nodded gratefully and wanted to continue listening to the story: "What happened next?"

Later, your mother gradually opened up her heart and stopped being so depressed. In her spare time, she would take off her shoes and socks and step on the water. She would also look for bird nests under the trees in the mansion. When your father was at home, he would accompany your mother to the streets. At that time, your father's official position was not high, and no one paid attention to us or talked about us.

Later, when your father got a promotion, there were some unavoidable social engagements that required your mother and your father to attend. Sometimes when your father was not around, they would say some sour words to your mother, saying that she had been married to your father for several years without having any children, and that she did not allow your father to take a concubine. She was really a jealous woman, and that all her previous virtuousness was pretended.

Later, these rumors reached your grandfather, who came to visit and said that your mother had been childless for so many years and felt guilty towards the Lu family, so he wanted to send your mother's half-sister to be a concubine. This reminded your mother of your grandmother's death, and she got angry without caring about anything. Fortunately, your father arrived in time and rejected your grandfather's request, and the matter was resolved.

After your grandfather passed away, your mother became depressed again and lost interest in everything. In fact, your mother has never had children because of the quarrel between your grandfather and grandmother. She was too sad and her health was damaged. She also felt that she had seen through the coldness of the world.

Later, your mother saw a doctor and took care of her body. She finally got pregnant. With anticipation, her mood finally improved.

When your mother was pregnant with you, your father stayed with her whenever he had time. We often discussed whether it was a boy or a girl, what name to give it, what to teach the child in the future, and whether to take the child out for fun as a family. We were really happy during that time.

But I don't know what your grandfather was thinking. Your mother is his biological daughter, but when your mother was seven months pregnant with you, he came to send your mother's concubine sister to be a concubine, and this time he also dragged your grandfather along. He told your grandfather that he had consulted a master and your mother's baby was definitely a girl. Your mother's health was not good and she might not be able to give birth in the future. If he took the concubine sister and gave birth to a child in the future, and registered it under your mother's name, it would be considered her contribution to the Lu family. He also said that your mother was pregnant and it was not convenient for her to serve your father, and he needed her biological sister to take good care of her. He also said that all this was for your mother's good, so that she would not be known as jealous, and that it was always better to find someone from outside than to find a sister to be caring.

Your mother was so angry at that time. The biological mother of this concubine sister and your grandmother also had some grievances. Your mother would never agree to let her marry in. Although I tried my best to persuade your mother not to be angry at that time, I would always stand by her side.

Although your grandfather also thinks it's okay to marry another wife for your father, he still doesn't agree with your grandfather's approach, and he also advised: "My dear, I think this matter can be dealt with in a few months. Minjun is about to give birth. It won't be too late to discuss it slowly after she gives birth."

But your grandfather still refused to give in and accused your mother of being disobedient and unfilial.

Your mother was so angry that she gave birth to a premature baby, but you were too small to come out on your own. Your mother tried her best to give birth to you.

Your mother lay on the bed and apologized to me weakly: "Husband, I'm sorry, I should be calmer. The child is still so young, and I'm going to die. How will she live in the future?"

I asked your mother why she was so stupid. Didn't I say I would not let her concubine's sister marry into the family?

Your mother didn't have much strength left at the time. She looked up as if she was answering me, or as if she was talking to herself: "I'm not mad at you. I'm mad at why there is such a father. It's not enough that he forced my mother to death, but now he's forcing me. In his eyes, the only thing he cares about is carrying on the family line. Doesn't he have any feelings for our long-term companionship?"

Then your mother gathered some strength, took my hand and begged, "My husband, I know you are different from my father. You must not let our daughter grow up like me. You must let her be free. When you marry again in the future, you must not treat her badly. And you must not marry a member of the Liu family. You must not bring their messy customs into our family."

Your father comforted your mother and said, "I said I would never marry again except you. I will treat our children well in the future. Don't talk too much. Have a good rest. You will get better."

Your mother opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she had no strength to hold your hand and passed away.

When your father was carrying you out in grief, your grandfather actually said with a smug look on his face: "What did I say? The master's prediction was really accurate. It really is a girl."

The father didn't care about the seniority for a moment and shouted angrily: "Master, did you expect your daughter to die? Did you expect that I would break off relations with you?"

Without waiting for your grandfather to respond, I said, "Take your precious daughter back. I don't want her. Minjun will no longer be connected to your Liu family. She will be a member of my Lu family. From now on, our two families will have no contact with each other."

So from the time you were born until now, you have never seen your grandfather's family.

Lu Lingxi felt a little sad after listening to the story of his father and mother. He originally thought it would be a very sweet and happy story, but he didn't expect it to be so sad. His father just told the story briefly. Maybe there are many things and details in the middle. But these are all memories that his father has alone, and they are his beauty.

When the story was almost over, they just happened to arrive at the gate of the Marquis Zhenguo's Mansion, and Lu Yi and Lu Lingxi got off the carriage together.

After Lu Yi entered the house, he looked at the stone wall in front of the door for a while. Lu Lingxi then noticed that the stone wall was engraved with a woman climbing a tree to pick something. Thinking of the story Lu Yi just told, this must be her mother. It turned out that although her mother had been gone for more than ten years, her shadow was still everywhere in the mansion.
