Lu Yunxu took his words to heart: "Well, teach me how to roll the dice first."
"Okay." Qiao Jinlan agreed happily.
In the Anyang Marquis' Mansion, there are so many eyes staring at Lu Yunxu and his mother. If Lu Yunxu really works hard to make progress, not to mention the Anyang Marquis, even Old Madam Lu will have plenty of ways to destroy him.
When Lu Yunxu has not grown up yet, he naturally has to keep a low profile.
When the time is right, they will have no way to deal with Lu Yunxu even if they want to.
They were powerless and could only watch as something they thought was a sure thing ended up in failure.
The feeling of being just one step away from complete victory and then suddenly suffering a crushing defeat must be... very interesting.
She doesn't care what the original owner was like.
However, when she went to pay her respects just now, she clearly felt the ill will towards her from Madam Lu and the others.
They want to trick her as well, so let's see who is more powerful.
"Quick, how did you shake the dice?" When talking about shaking the dice, Lu Yunxu's eyes lit up, like a child who has not grown up.
Qiao Jinlan felt emotional, he is just a child who has not grown up.
This silly boy thought that the servant beside him was his confidant, but in fact, he was the spy arranged by Old Madam Lu and Marquis Anyang to be beside him.
His every move was under their surveillance.
He wants to learn well?
Apart from anything else, if he could pick up a book and read it peacefully for three days, the sun would have to rise from the west.
Madam Lu and the others would not let him learn well.
Not to mention, he was deliberately spoiled by Madam Lu since he was a child, and most of the things he did were done on a whim.
It would be too difficult for him to sit down and read attentively.
For him, we have to teach him according to his aptitude.
Look, as soon as he rolled the dice, Lu Yunxu became more energetic.
Qiao Jinlan put her thoughts aside and played with Lu Yunxu.
Shuangrui, the servant guarding the gate outside, naturally could not hear what they said in low voices just now, but he could hear the sound of the dice being shaken inside clearly.
Shuangrui listened for a while, then quietly left to report the news.
After listening to this, Madam Lu nodded with satisfaction and sent Shuangrui away. She then breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought that boy really wanted to make progress."
"It's true that a dog can't change its eating habits, and mud can't be helped."
"Aunt, if the prince is really motivated, it would be a good thing." Su Yunxia said softly, "After all, the prince is the Marquis's legitimate son, and also the cousin's son."
"When the prince inherits the title in the future, my cousin's family will also help the Marquis' Mansion."
Old Madam Lu's face suddenly darkened. What she hated to hear the most was that her daughter-in-law's family was supporting the Marquis' Mansion.
"She is a poor woman who has made some filthy money from business. How can she support the Marquis's Mansion? Is she worthy?" Old Madam Lu cursed with disdain.
She completely forgot that her husband, the old marquis, was actually a country bumpkin, but he was awarded the title of marquis because he followed the late emperor in his battles.
"You and your cousin were originally a couple. If it weren't for her, how could it have turned out like this?"
"My Yi'er, the eldest son and grandson, cannot walk in front of others with dignity."
"It's all that bitch Lin's fault!"
The wife of Marquis Anyang's maiden name was Lin, but Old Madam Lu disliked the Lin family very much.
Every time the Lin family came to visit during the New Year, Old Madam Lu always put on airs and watched the Lin family members kowtow in front of her.
Don't think that just because Lin brought a little dowry, the Lin family can act unruly in front of her.
The Lin family, we must recognize their identities clearly.
"Aunt still cares about me." Su Yunxia was so moved that she burst into tears.
Madam Lu sighed sadly, "My poor brother, he only has you as his daughter... He passed away early. If I don't take good care of you, how can I face him when I die?"
When talking about her brothers from her natal family, Mrs. Lu couldn't help crying.
Su Yunxia also started crying, and the two of them hugged each other and cried bitterly.
When Su Yunxia left Changqing Courtyard and returned to her own courtyard, she had a smile on her face.
"Jiaojiao, I know I have wronged you just now." Su Yunxia held Qiao Jiaojiao's hand affectionately and comforted her.
"You also know that my mother and I are now living under someone else's roof, so we have to be careful in everything we do and say."
"Madam is strict in managing the household. If Yi'er hadn't taught you a lesson back then, you would be in this situation today... Alas..." Su Yunxia sighed helplessly.
"Anyway, it's all because of my incompetence as a mother-in-law that you have to suffer as a result."
Qiao Jiaojiao was deeply moved when she saw such a loving mother-in-law.
You know, in her previous life, her mother-in-law was really a piece of shit. She always found fault with her and taught her a lesson. Her husband didn't know how to help her, but helped that old woman instead.
In the end, she died tragically.
Look at this life, my mother-in-law is a kind person and my husband is considerate.
She had just been slapped in front of everyone, and after coming back, her husband immediately apologized to her.
"Mom, what are you talking about? It was my daughter-in-law who was reckless just now. It was just a casual remark, but I didn't expect that it almost caused such a big trouble." Qiao Jiaojiao said virtuously.
"After returning, my husband has explained the interests involved to my daughter-in-law. My husband is doing this for the good of my daughter-in-law, and she knows it."
"Good boy, good boy..." Su Yunxia smiled and said repeatedly, "Mother knows that you have been wronged. Look, mother has prepared things for you to take back home."
"When you return home, I promise to make sure you are treated with honor."
"Your sister has relied on her status to bully you before, right?"
"This time, your husband and I will support you and let you suppress her!"
Su Yunxia said that it was for Qiao Jiaojiao, but in fact it was for herself.
So what if Lin is the mistress of the house?
Lu Yunxu is inferior to her son in every way, so Lin will always be inferior to her.
She may not fight, but her son must always be above Lu Yunxu!
After hearing what Su Yunxia said, Qiao Jiaojiao was overjoyed: "Mother...thank you, mother!"
Even though she was favored in the Qiao family, she was always looked down upon by those snobbish guys outside.
So what if she was a concubine's daughter before?
Later, her mother became the mistress of the Qiao family, and she became the eldest daughter of the Qiao family.
She wanted to take the opportunity of returning home to let everyone see that Qiao Jinlan was not as good as her, from childhood to adulthood.
Even if Qiao Jinlan married the prince and became his consort, she was still not as good as her!
Not to mention, in the future, her husband will become an important official in the court. By that time... Qiao Jinlan would even be her foot-washing maid, but she still thought Qiao Jinlan was vulgar.
"Yier, Jiaojiao suffered a lot when she married into our family. When you return home, you must take good care of Jiaojiao." Su Yunxia reminded Lu Liangyi.
Lu Liangyi nodded with a smile: "Son knows."
He had to let his father know that he, his son, was the pride of the Anyang Marquisate, and Lu Yunxu... was the shame of the Marquisate.
