Qiao Jinlan smiled and said, "See, he's taken the bait, hasn't he?"

"Second brother, you have no idea how miserable mother and your elder brother are." As Qiao Jinlan turned around, tears suddenly fell from her eyes. She looked as pitiful as she could be.

"Do you know? Su Yunxia is my father's concubine, and Lu Liangyi is his concubine's son."

"Grandmother deliberately wants to make your eldest brother useless. Even now, Su Yunxia is the housekeeper of the Marquis' Mansion."

Lu Yunhao breathed rapidly: "Is this true?"

Qiao Jinlan said sadly: "How can it be fake?"

"Your eldest brother asked someone to investigate and found out that Su Yunxia had never been married and had no husband's family."

Lu Yunhao was completely stunned.

Qiao Jinlan continued, "Second brother, think about it, why did you end up in the sea of ​​fire back then?"

"For so many years, have mother and elder brother always wanted to get close to you? Why don't you want to see them?"

"Did anyone tell you that you are a joke and a stain on the mansion, and that you should stay out of the house for the sake of your mother and brother?"

"And...did anyone tell you that he can take care of your mother and brother for you?"

Every time Qiao Jinlan said something, Lu Yunhao felt a heavy blow in his heart. When she finished speaking, Lu Yunhao's heart was already in turmoil.

Because Qiao Jinlan got everything right.

Over the years, Lu Liangyi had been by his side, instilling this into him little by little.

"Second brother, do you know? If Lu Liangyi passes the imperial examination and becomes the top scholar, he will have a promising future. And your eldest brother is a playboy, you are a cripple who hides away from people, and your younger sister marries into a bad family... Tell me, who will rule the Marquisate by then?"

"When that day really comes, who exactly are you trying to protect?"

Lu Yunhao's body was shaking violently. He clutched the armrests of the wooden wheelchair tightly with both hands, his knuckles turning pale with grief and anger.

He leaned forward, angry red bloodshot quickly filled his eyes, his teeth bit his lower lip tightly, a trace of bright red seeped out.

Then he raised his hands to cover his eyes, and collapsed on the back of the wheelchair as if all the strength had been drained out of him.

"What can I do?" Lu Yunhao said with a wry smile, "What can a useless person like me do?"

Every word was laced with tears, every sound was filled with sobs and blood, and there was endless resentment, all trapped in this crippled body.

"Second brother, how could you be a loser?" Qiao Jinlan asked curiously, "If it weren't for you, how could Lu Liangyi get the first place in the exam?"

Lu Yunhao suddenly moved his hand away and looked at Qiao Jinlan in surprise.

Qiao Jinlan smiled and expressed his doubts: "How do I know? You don't need to know."

"I am just curious. My second brother was able to predict the exam questions without leaving home, and he was able to prepare the essays in advance, allowing Lu Liangyi to pass the exam smoothly."

"With your abilities, what would happen if you were to go down in person?"

Lu Yunhao laughed at himself, pointed at his face, and asked, "How can an official be disfigured?"

He pounded his numb legs hard again: "How can I enter the government if I can't walk?"

"Then second brother, what if you are better now?" Qiao Jinlan asked with a smile.

A glimmer of bright hope flashed across Lu Yunxu's eyes, and then quickly dimmed like a shooting star.

He snorted self-deprecatingly: "Sister-in-law, stop joking."

"This is not funny."

After he got into the accident, my mother hired all the doctors she could find for him, even the imperial physician in the palace.

But in the end it was still useless.

"I wouldn't joke about such things. Besides, don't you want to give it a try? Not only for yourself, but also for mother and your older brother and younger sister." Qiao Jinlan said.

"Now, in the Marquis' Mansion, you know what our family is in... Even if mother wants to divorce and leave, she will be skinned alive."

"What's more, if mother divorces, she can't take you with her. You will be left in the mansion, separated from mother's flesh and blood."

"If Su Yunxia becomes the mistress of the house, how do you think your elder brother and younger sister will live?"

Lu Yunhao's expression changed several times, and finally, he bowed to Qiao Jinlan and said, "Sister-in-law, help me!"

Qiao Jinlan smiled. Isn’t that settled?

Lu Yunhao is an important character in the book.

Lu Liangyi was able to become the top scorer in the imperial examination entirely thanks to the genius Lu Yunhao who predicted the test questions.

Later, when Lu Liangyi entered the court as an official, whenever he encountered any difficulties, he said he would go back to think about it, but in fact he went to ask Lu Yunhao for advice.

Lu Liangyi relied on Lin's money and Lu Yunhao's talent to pave the way for him.

In the end, Lu Yunhao, like Lin, had a bad ending.

When Lu Liangyi gained a firm foothold in the court and no longer needed Lu Yunhao, he began to humiliate and torture Lu Yunhao in every way possible.

Lu Liangyi hated Lu Yunhao's talent.

To Lu Liangyi, Lu Yunhao's existence is evidence that he is a waste and a shame.

Therefore, Lu Yunhao was quite miserable and suffered the most torture.

"Okay." Qiao Jinlan said with a smile, "Let's go, and start the treatment today. Also, don't tell anyone that I came to see you."

"After all, Lu Liangyi will take the exam next year, and you have to help him become the top scorer in the high school, right?"

An angry smile appeared on Lu Yunhao's lips, and his eyes were cold: "Sister-in-law, I know what to do."

Qiao Jinlan likes to talk to smart people.

To be honest, Lu Yunxu's family are all good people and they are all capable.

The reason they ended up with such a miserable fate was simply because they trusted their so-called relatives too much.

Being a good person is no reason to be bullied.

After Qiao Jinlan finished her work, she left leisurely.

On the way, she heard a little maid complaining quietly: "What's going on? The food today is so bad."

"Shh... stop talking. Madam Su is the housekeeper now."

"Why doesn't Madam take care of the household anymore?"

"It's just that the Madam and the Marquis are having a quarrel. Madam is really something. She just ignores it without saying anything. She really doesn't know the rules."

Qiao Jinlan raised the corners of her lips, turned around and walked towards Lin's yard.

"Mom." Qiao Jinlan came in and bowed.

"Come and sit down." Lin said with a smile, "Why are you here?"

"Well, I just went to my second brother's place." Qiao Jinlan's words made Lin's smile freeze on her face instantly.

"Hao'er...how is he?" When Mrs. Lin mentioned her youngest son, she felt worried and heartbroken.

After Lin asked, he sighed again: "You were turned down, right?"

"Ever since the accident, this child has refused to see anyone in the yard."

Qiao Jinlan shook her head.

Lin's face suddenly changed, and she asked distressedly, "Did Hao'er kick you out?"

"After this child was injured, his temperament changed drastically. He is not a bad person by nature. If he has offended you in any way, I will apologize to you."

"Mother, I can cure your second brother's injury." Qiao Jinlan's words made Lin sit there in a daze.
