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

It was already evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the green bricks and tiles of the Lu Mansion, reflecting a faint golden color.

Lu Yundi led Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin, brother and sister, into the main hall, and a rich aroma of food wafted into the air.

Minister Lu had been waiting in the main hall. When he saw the three people coming in, he immediately stood up and greeted them with a smile: "Di'er, you are here. Come and have dinner with us."

Lu Yundi followed his instructions and stepped forward, bowing: "Father." Then, she turned to Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin and said: "This is Canglan, this is Shuqin, they are my step-son and step-daughter."

Minister Lu looked at Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Well, not bad, these two children have great potential."

Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin stepped forward one after another and bowed awkwardly.

Minister Lu smiled broadly and said, "Okay, okay, everyone please sit down."

After everyone sat down, the dishes were served one after another.

Lu Yundi looked at the table full of sumptuous dishes and said, "Father, the dishes you personally selected really whet my appetite."

Minister Lu patted the table with a smile and said, "I prepared these specially for you. I hope you like them."

Lu Yundi was dressed in gorgeous clothes and sat in the upper seat, with Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin on either side. Her father, Lu Shangshu, sat in the main seat, smiling, trying to get closer to Yan Canglan.

Lu Yundi looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help but feel deeply moved. She recalled that in the past, because she was born a concubine, she was the least valued in the Lu family.

She was always placed in the corner, as if she were an invisible person. Now, she sat in the center, like a moon surrounded by stars. She raised the corners of her mouth slightly, trying to hide her inner joy.

Halfway through the meal, Yan Canglan suddenly threw away his chopsticks and said coldly: "This dish is really hard to swallow. I wonder who cooked it?"

Everyone was stunned, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Lu Yundi smiled slightly, patted Yan Canglan's hand gently, and signaled him to be patient. Then he turned to Lu Shangshu and said gently: "Father, what do you think of this dish?"

Minister Lu was stunned for a moment, and said hurriedly: "Oh, this dish, the taste is still okay, but Canglan has a unique taste, maybe it doesn't suit his taste."

Yan Canglan's face was as cold as ice. He was extremely indifferent to his father, Minister Lu's advances, and his tone was filled with a hint of sarcasm: "Grandfather, did you know that this dish has such a strong fishy smell? I really can't eat it."

Upon hearing this, Minister Lu's face changed slightly, but he still forced a smile and responded: "Perhaps it's because Canglan has a unique taste, but I think this dish is quite to my taste."

Lu Yundi's eyes twitched slightly, and she coughed lightly, trying to ease the atmosphere: "Father, don't worry too much about the dishes. Today's family dinner, everyone is gathered together, which is the most important thing."

Minister Lu nodded, a smile reappearing on his face, but Yan Canglan did not give up: "Do you know that the wrong seasoning was used in this dish? Such crude craftsmanship is really unbearable."

After these words were spoken, the atmosphere at the table became increasingly tense.

Lu Yundi was secretly happy in her heart, thinking that Yan Canglan was deliberately looking for trouble.

She smiled slightly and said to Yan Canglan: "Canglan, you are so young, but you already have such high taste. It is a blessing for our Lu family. However, at today's family dinner, harmony is still the most important thing."

Yan Canglan snorted coldly and said nothing more.

Lu Yundi smiled and turned to her father, Minister Lu, and said, "Father, do you know that in recent years, a new dish called 'Buddha Jumps Over the Wall' has become popular among the people? It is said that this dish is fragrant and delicious. I wonder if you have tried it?"

Minister Lu shook his head: "I have never tasted it, but it sounds quite tempting."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly: "Since father is interested, I will prepare it myself someday and let father taste this delicacy."

Minister Lu showed an embarrassed look on his face and said hurriedly: "Yun Di, you are really becoming more and more thoughtful."

Yan Canglan still had a cold face and said nothing.

Lu Yundi sighed inwardly, knowing that Yan Canglan was still angry about the previous dish, so he said, "Canglan, I know you have a unique taste, so I specially prepared a dish you like. It will be served later. You can try it."

A hint of gratitude flashed across Yan Canglan's eyes, but he still maintained a cold expression and nodded.

At this time, a maid hurried into the main hall, holding a plate of dishes in her hands, and said, "Madam, this is the dish you ordered."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly and said, "Put it here."

The maid placed the dish on the table, and everyone looked closely and saw that it was a braised pork. A hint of surprise flashed across Yan Canglan's eyes, but he still suppressed his joy and remained calm.

After the dishes were served, Yan Canglan picked up a piece of braised pork and tasted it carefully. After a moment, he put down his chopsticks and said, "This dish is indeed delicious, Madam, your cooking skills are amazing."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, secretly happy that she had finally satisfied Yan Canglan. She turned to Minister Lu and said, "Father, you should try it too."

Minister Lu picked up a piece of braised pork, tasted it, and nodded, "It's really good!"

The family dinner lasted half an hour.

Minister Lu called Lu Yundi to his study. As night fell, red candles were burning brightly in the study, illuminating the elegance and simplicity of the room.

Minister Lu sat at the desk with a serious and kind look, while Lu Yundi stood quietly beside him with a humble demeanor.

Minister Lu coughed lightly, breaking the silence, and slowly said, "Di'er, since you have married into the loyal and brave mansion, you must know how to gain a foothold there. At today's family dinner, I saw that you handled it well, which was gratifying."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly, lowered her head and said softly: "Father, you are too kind. I will definitely remember your teachings."

Minister Lu nodded and continued, "Di'er, you know that the reason why I value your situation in the Marquis' Mansion so much is because you are not only my daughter, but also the hope of my Lu family. You must remember that no matter when and where, you must maintain the honor of the family."

Lu Yundi replied with a serious expression, "My daughter understands and will definitely bring honor to the family."

At this time, Minister Lu sighed, his eyes showing concern: "Di'er, I know your life in the Marquis' Mansion is not easy. But you must remember, no matter what difficulties you encounter, don't forget your brothers and sisters from your mother's family. They are your relatives and your backers."

A trace of gratitude flashed in Lu Yundi's eyes. She knew the weight of her father's words. She said softly, "Don't worry, father. I will remember it in my heart. In the Marquis' Mansion, I will pay more attention to my brothers and sisters and take care of each other."

Minister Lu nodded, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes: "Di'er, I am very pleased that you are so sensible. If you need anything in the Marquis' Mansion, just write a letter and I will come in person."

Lu Yundi's eyes were slightly red. She knew that her father's love for her was genuine. She said softly, "Father, I will work hard and not let you worry."

The two were silent for a moment, and Minister Lu said, "Di'er, do you know the background of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion?"

Lu Yundi shook her head slightly: "My daughter doesn't know, please teach me, father."
