Traveling through time and space, being replaced by a bride, happily married into a marquis's m

Yan Canglan nodded, put down the branch, and said, "Don't worry, Madam, I just think it's fun, I won't go too far."

Yan Shuqin looked at the old turtle and wondered, "Madam, is this old turtle spiritual and can it understand what we are saying?"

Lu Yundi smiled and said, "Maybe. It has been with us all these years, and we often talk to it. Maybe it really can understand."

Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin both showed surprised expressions. They didn't expect that this old turtle was so magical.

……

Lu Yundi was leisurely enjoying the coolness under the shade of the willow tree. She arranged for a maid to look after Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin, the two siblings, and then she went to the nearby Fufeng Garden.

That was the residence of my elder sister Lu Wanqing.

Before Lu Yundi stepped into the house, she could vaguely hear the low sighs of the maids inside.

"It's a pity that our eldest lady, with such a perfect marriage, was easily given away to someone else."

"Indeed, the Second Miss is coming back today, what an honor!"

"Look at that pair of beautiful and smart stepchildren. How many people envy them and want them! They can take charge of household chores right after they get married. Many daughters-in-law of wealthy families, even if they become mothers-in-law, may not be able to have such power as housekeepers..."

Lu Yundi hid quietly in a dark corner, listening carefully to the whispers on the other side of the wall.

Although the maids over there lowered their voices, the buzz of their discussions was still clearly audible, and Lu Wanqing, who was in the inner room, was not immune to this auditory invasion.

She heard the maids' chattering, and became extremely excited, with a surge of anger rising in her heart.

Lu Wanqing sat on a carved chair made of rosewood, staring straight ahead with a gaze like lightning. Upon seeing this, the maids fell silent and the room fell into silence.

She took a deep breath and then spoke slowly: "I tell you, behind the glory of Lu Yundi is all calculation and conspiracy. She thought that because she was favored, she could trample on the dignity of our Lu family at will, but she was wrong!"

The maid Xiao Cui comforted her softly, "Miss, don't be angry. It's not worth it to get yourself hurt. Their affairs have nothing to do with us. You don't have to be angry about them."

Lu Wanqing's eyes widened and her voice rose a few notches: "Do you know? Her stepson Yan Canglan and stepdaughter Yan Shuqin, who were originally such innocent children, are now being dragged into the quagmire by her. Their future will surely be extremely miserable!"

The maid Xiaomei couldn't help but interrupt: "Miss, can we save them?"

Lu Wanqing sneered, "Save? How can we save them? The three of them, mother and son, are firmly under her control. If we intervene, they will only fall into greater difficulties. All we can do is to keep our duty in this mansion and prevent them from succeeding."

At this time, Lu Yundi stood quietly outside the door. When she heard Lu Wanqing's words, she couldn't help but frown. She wondered why Lu Wanqing was so dissatisfied with her. Was it because she was favored and made her elder sister feel threatened?

At this moment, Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin quietly came behind Lu Yundi and happened to hear Lu Wanqing's vicious words in the house. They showed shock and anger on their faces, and Yan Canglan's eyes were flashing with raging anger.

Yan Canglan gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and whispered to Lu Yundi: "Madam, I heard it. Lu Wanqing...she actually slandered us so viciously. I must go in and have a clear argument with her!"

Lu Yundi gently pulled Yan Canglan's sleeve, her eyes revealing deep worry. She slowly shook her head and whispered, "Canglan, don't be impulsive. If you go in now, you will only fall into Lu Wanqing's trap. She deliberately said these vicious words to make us lose our minds and make us lose our composure in front of everyone."

Yan Shuqin nervously tugged at the corner of Yan Canglan's clothes, tears in her eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother, Madam is right, we can't fall into her trap. We must stay calm and leave her no chance to take advantage of us."

Yan Canglan stared at Lu Yundi and Yan Shuqin with his eyes wide open. Although he was still furious, his rationality gradually prevailed. He took a deep breath and slowly relaxed his fist.

Seeing this, Lu Yundi gently patted Yan Canglan's shoulder and comforted her: "Okay, child, I know you feel wronged. But we must learn to be patient and wait for the right time to let her suffer the consequences."

Yan Canglan gritted his teeth, his eyes revealing anger and confusion towards Lu Wanqing. Yan Shuqin, on the other hand, was worried. She looked at Lu Yundi and asked softly, "Madam, why did Lu Wanqing suddenly regret the engagement? Why did she curse us?"

Lu Yundi sighed softly, her brows revealing helplessness and sadness. She said slowly: "Wanqing... has hysteria. This disease makes her always hope that others will get well, and the malice in her heart cannot be controlled."

Yan Canglan's eyes widened, and he looked at his wife in disbelief: "Madam, Lu Wanqing...does she really have this disease?"

Lu Yundi nodded, a trace of pain flashing in her eyes: "Yes, she has had this disease since she was a child. I have been trying every way to treat her, but I have never been able to cure it. The curse she has for you in her heart is not from her heart, but is caused by the disease."

Yan Shuqin frowned, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes: "Then why didn't Madam tell us? We have endured misunderstandings for so long in vain."

Lu Yundi smiled bitterly: "I wanted to find a suitable time to tell you, but Wanqing has been unwilling to let me reveal it. She said that she didn't want her illness to become a burden on the family. Moreover, I am also worried that if you know the truth, you will sympathize with her and affect your lives."

Yan Canglan was silent for a moment, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: "Madam, even if Lu Wanqing is sick, she cannot curse others at will. We will not let go of everything she did to us easily."

Lu Yundi looked at Yan Canglan, feeling a slight pain in his heart, and said softly: "I understand that you have the right to fight for your own future. I will not let Wan Qing's curse succeed."

Yan Shuqin looked at Madam worriedly: "Madam, what should we do?"

Lu Yundi pondered for a moment, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: "I will tell you a secret, a secret about Wan Qing. In fact, she is not an ordinary person. She has the ability to be reborn and predict the future."

Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin stared at the lady with wide eyes in shock. They had never thought that Wan Qing actually possessed such a magical ability.

Lu Yundi continued, "But I know that this ability cannot completely control a person's fate. You can choose to believe Wan Qing's prediction, or you can choose not to believe it. You live your own life, and you should not be completely controlled by the predictions of others."

Yan Canglan's eyes flashed with determination: "Madam, I understand. I will not let her curse affect my future. I will work hard to fight for a better future for my life."

Yan Shuqin also nodded firmly: "Yes, ma'am. We will not give up easily. We must work hard for our own happiness."

Lu Yundi looked at the children's determined eyes and felt a warm feeling in his heart.
