Favoring concubines and ignoring wives? The mistress of the marquisate remarried a powerful official

After Lu Zijun had packed herself up, she sneaked out of her bedroom and headed for the living room where they usually had their meals at the Lu residence.

Now Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu were waiting for her in the dining hall. Lu Dejun was standing at the door, watching her from afar. He turned around and sat down when he saw her coming.

Lu Zijun walked in and said slowly with a guilty conscience, "Father, mother, your daughter has packed up."

Seeing that the blood on Lu Zijun's face was still not completely dry, Master Lu recalled her cat-like appearance when she came in just now, "With your bad temper, which man would dare to marry you!"

Master Lu glared at Lu Zijun and said with an unhappy look, "You really think you are someone you dare to beat someone up in Bishuitang. Now your reputation as a shrew is confirmed. I have to go to the Zhen family with your mother to apologize. If you didn't cause trouble outside every day, you wouldn't need us to clean up these messes for you."

Lu Zijun sat on the chair without saying a word. She didn't dare to look up at Mr. Lu. She just ate her meal obediently.

Seeing Lu Zijun's expression, Madam Lu tried to persuade him, "Master, it's rare for Zijun to be so obedient and admit her mistakes. Since she knows she's wrong, let's just let it go. Besides, it was the daughter of the Zhen family who spoke rudely first."

"It's all your fault for spoiling her. From childhood to adulthood, you didn't punish her for minor mistakes, but only gently brushed off her for major mistakes. That's why she developed this fearless personality." Master Lu now glared at Lu Zijun and said coldly, "You don't have to go to Bishui Hall. If you go, it's because you don't study hard and you're embarrassing yourself. You can just stay at home and wait for me to find you a marriage partner."

"Father, I know I was wrong." When Lu Zijun heard Master Lu say this, she immediately became anxious and swore, "I swear that I will never fight again. I will behave myself and never overstep my bounds. Father, please let me go. I will do my homework well."

"I don't dare to trust you anymore." Master Lu snorted coldly, obviously not taking Lu Zijun's words to heart, "You've been kicked out, do you think Bishuitang will accept you if you go again? Your father doesn't have the face to speak for you anymore."

"Dad, you don't have to tell me." Lu Zijun was now angry, and retorted with his neck stiff, "Song Wanning from the General's Mansion is my good friend. Her brother knew that I was being bullied in the fight, and he said he would go and say hello for me. I can still go to the Green Water Hall as usual."

After hearing this, Master Lu's face turned pale and blue, and he slammed the chopsticks in his hand on the table. He said coldly, "You have brought shame to the General's Mansion, and you still asked the General's Mansion to plead for you. You are so shameless. I said you are not allowed to go, you are not allowed to go, do you hear me?"

"Dad!" Lu Zijun couldn't recognize him now, and immediately started to act irritated, "Why don't you believe your daughter's words?"

Master Lu snorted coldly and glared at Lu Zijun, "Go back to the yard after dinner. Don't come out. Do you hear me?"

Lu Zijun threw the bowl in his hand onto the table, turned around and left the cafeteria.

Lu Zijun is now staying in the yard. She wanted to sneak out to study, but who would have thought that Mr. Lu actually asked two mothers to watch over her every day and not let her go out.

Now that’s good, Lu Zijun’s dream of sneaking out of Bishuitang has been shattered.

Lu Zijun was locked up in the yard for two days, and no one responded to her calls. Just when Lu Zijun was determined to think of other ways, Qingling came in hurriedly from outside, looked at Lu Zijun and said, "Miss, Miss, General Song Lan is here, and he is talking to the master in the front hall."

Lu Zijun was stunned and almost jumped up from his chair. He looked at Qingling in surprise, "What is he doing in our house?"

Qing Ling shook her head and said to Lu Zijun, "I don't know either, but it's here anyway. Miss, do you want to go and take a look secretly?"

"Of course I have to go." Lu Zijun walked towards the door in small steps, but the two mothers were still blocking the door.

Lu Zijun rolled his eyes and said harshly, "Why are you blocking here? I want to go find my dad."

Seeing this, the two mothers finally made way and followed Lu Zijun all the way to the main hall.

Lu Zijun sneaked forward from the back door, stood behind the screen, and secretly listened to the conversation between Song Lan and Master Lu.

Song Lan's voice was always more upright than that of the young men in the capital. Lu Zijun only heard his low voice, "Master Lu, my father asked the younger generation to say hello to Master Lu."

The General's Mansion was well-known, so Master Lu did not dare to neglect it. He just smiled and said, "Everything is fine, everything is fine. I just don't know where General Xiao Song is working now?"

"I was just helping with some chores in the military camp." Song Lan said slowly, "My father thought that I needed to improve my knowledge these days, so he asked me to study in Bishui Hall. A few days ago, I met Miss Zijun from the master's family in Bishui Hall. I just don't know why I didn't go these two days?"

When Master Lu mentioned Lu Zijun, he was quite embarrassed and said slowly, "My child has always been spoiled. Now that she has made such a fool of herself in Bishuitang, I really can't bear to see her continue to cause trouble, so I let her reflect on her mistakes at home."

"So that's how it is." Song Lan smiled and explained to Master Lu, "Miss Zijun was also there that day. She took action because others slandered my sister. Now it seems that our General's Mansion should thank her for her righteous action. If she is punished for this, it is the fault of the General's Mansion. I hope Master Lu can forgive Miss Zijun this time. Otherwise, my father and I will feel bad."

Seeing that Lu Zijun had earned a favor for him, Master Lu's previous anger had long since disappeared. Instead, he looked at Song Lan and laughed, "How dare I accept this? If she is on good terms with the general's daughter, it is only natural for her to help. Since General Lan has spoken, I must have misunderstood her."

Song Lan responded, "My father has already said hello to the teacher at Bishuitang. If Miss Lu wants to go back to Bishuitang, she can go back directly and continue her lessons. I wonder if Miss Lu can continue to go to Bishuitang tomorrow?"

Master Lu smiled and said hurriedly, "Of course. I feel really bad for troubling General Lan to come and plead for my daughter today. Why don't you have dinner and then go back to the General's Mansion?"

"No, there are still things to do at home, so I will go back first." Song Lan stood up, bowed to Master Lu, and then turned around to say goodbye.

When he left, he glanced at the screen meaningfully.
