The space boss's daily life of raising cubs, loving husbands and farming

"Madam, it seems that the third young master and his wife are outside." The brisk voice of the little maid sounded in the carriage.

Madam Lu gently twisted the Buddhist beads with her right hand. She opened her eyes when she heard the words, and a fierce look flashed across her eyes.

"There are only two young masters in the mansion." She said in a cold voice, glaring at the little maid in a warning tone, "If you remember it wrong again in the future, you will leave the mansion on your own."

The little maidservant trembled and lowered her head, not daring to speak any more.

"The little girl is not good at talking, Madam, please don't bother with her." Nanny Sun handed a cup of tea to Madam Lu, "Madam, you got a good fortune today, you should be happy."

Master Liaokong personally interpreted the divination and said that the Lu family had a son who would change the family's fortune in the future.

Madam Lu's expression eased, she took a sip of the tea and said with a smile, "My Yuan'er is indeed a promising man. It's worth the effort that the master and I have put into him."

"The eldest young master is a filial son." Nanny Sun continued, "Yesterday, someone was sent to deliver blood swallows to Madam to replenish her body. I heard that the eldest wife didn't keep any for herself, and the eldest young master's wife even had a quarrel with him because of this."

Madam Lu snorted coldly, "I am Yuan'er's biological mother, how can Li compare to me? When we return home, you will personally send two volumes of Buddhist scriptures to the first room for Li to copy."

"Yes." Nanny Sun responded respectfully.

The carriage stopped in front of the Lu Mansion. Nanny Sun helped Madam Lu get off the carriage, only to see a strange servant running out of the mansion in a hurry.

Mrs. Lu frowned, "Stop!"

The servant paused, then turned around and saluted Madam Lu.

"Look up." Madam Lu stared at the servant. "Who taught you the rules when you saw the mistress but didn't show courtesy?"

She hated servants who didn't know the rules the most.

The servant said, "The eldest master ordered me to go to the government office. I was in a hurry and accidentally bumped into Madam. I beg Madam to forgive me."

Madam Lu frowned, "Why did Yuan'er ask you to go to the government office?"

The servant said, "Madam, please forgive me. The master forbade me to tell anyone else."

How is she someone else?

Madam Lu was about to explode with anger, but Nanny Sun held her back and gently advised, "Madam, it's okay to punish him, but don't delay the young master's business."

When she thought of her eldest son, Mrs. Lu's anger subsided a little and she waved her hand to let the servant leave.

The servant bowed to Madam Sun with gratitude and ran away.

Madam Lu tilted her head and looked at her wet nurse, "You are good at doing favors for me."

"I dare not." Nanny Sun smiled and helped Madam Lu up the stairs. "It's all because of Madam's kindness. If he wants to remember, it's for Madam's goodness. What does it have to do with me?"

Madam Lu snorted and laughed, then told the little maid, "Go to Yunlan Courtyard and see what the young master is doing."

"Yes." The little maid took the order and left.

Mrs. Lu returned to the main courtyard, washed and changed into casual clothes, then picked up the account book and looked at it carefully.

The maid brought in a pot of stewed blood swallows, and Nanny Sun took it and handed it to Madam Lu.

Mrs. Lu put down the account book, stirred it gently with a spoon, and drank two spoonfuls before the maid came back.

"Madam, the young master is studying in the study."

Madam Lu said "hmm", looked up and saw the maid's expression of wanting to say something but hesitating, and said unhappily: "If you have something to say, just say it at once, why are you hesitating?"

"When I came back, I heard something about the Third Master Lu."

Mrs. Lu was stunned. After she realized who this Mr. Lu was, her expression suddenly turned cold and a deep look of disgust flashed across her eyes.

The little maidservant was afraid of being punished, so she quickly told him everything she had heard.

"I heard that the shopkeeper Ge of the rice shop caught Mr. Lu committing adultery with a woman, and the two confronted each other in court. After the prefect interrogated them, it turned out that it was the shopkeeper Ge who colluded with the people in the rice shop to deliberately frame him. Shopkeeper Ge and a clerk named Wang Fei were sentenced to death by hanging."

"Very good!" Madam Lu slammed the table and said angrily, "He was kicked out of the house and didn't reflect on his actions. He even turned against his family. He is really an evildoer!"

The maids in the room were so scared that they knelt on the ground. Nanny Sun waved to everyone and asked the maids to go out first.

She stepped forward to calm Madam Lu down, "Madam, please don't be upset. You might get sick from being angry."

"Mammy, how could I give birth to such a cold-blooded monster like him?" Madam Lu was so angry that she was panting, tears welling up in her eyes. "I had a hard time getting pregnant with him. I almost had miscarriages several times. I finally made it to eight months, but suddenly I gave birth prematurely, and almost killed two people."

"I took pity on his frail body and took care of him myself. Even though I hired a wet nurse, I fed him myself during the day. Which of his two older brothers drank my milk? He was sick every other day and had a high fever at night. I always stayed up all night to nurse him. I never asked anyone else to do it for me."

"It was so hard to raise him until he was four years old, and he was finally able to be away from people for a while. But when I was just out for a while, he almost bit off Yuan'er's ear."

"He's only four years old, and he actually wants to swallow his brother's flesh and blood. How could I give birth to such a monster?"

Mrs. Lu will never forget that bloody scene.

The four-year-old child had blood in his mouth and meat scraps on his teeth. He looked like a devil crawling out of hell. He stretched out his bloody little hands and called her "mother" innocently.

She still has nightmares about the child suddenly pouncing on her and tearing her flesh.

From then on, she didn't dare to take care of the child herself anymore. Even though the child fell ill and almost died several times, she just stood outside the yard and watched from afar.

Yuaner, on the other hand, not only did not care about the harm his brother had done to him, but also visited him often.

One time, she saw the wound on Yuan'er's arm and interrogated the servants. Only then did she realize that the child had not changed his habit of biting people, especially his brother Yuan'er. He would often pretend to be good and bite Yuan'er as soon as he got close to him.

Yuan'er is filial and well-behaved. He loves his brothers without holding any grudges and wants to be a good brother. However, he gets hurt again and again by his younger brother.

They are clearly both children that came out of her belly, so why are there such big differences?

Mrs. Lu's thoughts drifted away, and she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart when she thought of the evil things Lu Chengjing had done when he was young.

A child who was less than ten years old actually abused a servant. Not only did he beat the man to death, he also ordered him to chop his body into pieces and feed it to the dogs.

How can this be an innocent and cute child? This is clearly a demon!

She didn't dare to let the child stay at home any longer, so she sent him away on the pretext of recuperating from illness. Unexpectedly, after only two years of peace, the master learned that the child was smart and took him back to raise him in his mansion.

Fortunately, the person has been exterminated now, and that cold-blooded monster can no longer harm her Yuan'er!

On the other side, Shitou drove a ox cart to pick up Shang Wan and the other two and headed towards the bricklayer's residence they had inquired about.

Passing by a pawn shop on the way, Shang Wan got off the car and pawned the jade pendant.

Although the jade was a rare and good quality one, the pawnshop owner deliberately lowered the price of it because there were words engraved on the jade pendant, and in the end it was only pawned for fifteen taels of silver.

Originally, the shopkeeper only offered ten taels, but after Shang Wan's friendly negotiation, and considering it was a dead-end pawn, he added five taels.

Although it was far from what he expected, Shang Wan thought that it was free silver anyway, so fifteen taels was fine.

She placed the bundle of silver on Lu Chengjing's legs, intentionally trying to tease him to talk.

Lu Chengjing was even more silent than usual, and something was not right.
