Chapter 7 I want to eat
The two exchanged dozens of moves before Yan Canglan finally couldn't hold on anymore and was defeated again.
He sat on the ground, breathing heavily.
Lu Yundi slowly took out the pair of housekeeper cards that the old Marquis and his wife had handed to her, and proudly waved them in front of Yan Canglan, saying with a smile: "This pair of housekeeper cards is the symbol of power of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion. Now, it is in my hands, don't you understand what this means?"
Yan Canglan’s eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, his tone trembling: “How could this…how could this thing be in your hands! You are talking nonsense! How could grandparents hand over the housekeeper rights to a bad woman like you? This…this is impossible!”
Lu Yundi smiled lightly and raised her eyebrows: "If you don't believe it, you can go and ask them yourself. However, before that, I still want to remind you that I am now the mistress of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion and have the power to manage the household. If you disrespect me, it would be disrespectful to the old Marquis and his wife."
Yan Canglan's face turned pale, he gritted his teeth, suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked: "Even if you have a counter card for the housekeeper, so what? Do you think you can beat me with this?"
Lu Yundi smiled slightly, with endless confidence in his eyes: "The housekeeper is in control, everything in the Loyalty and Bravery Marquis's Mansion is under my control. I can mobilize all the manpower and material resources in the mansion, and even decide your fate. Do you think that without my support, you can still gain a foothold in the Loyalty and Bravery Marquis's Mansion?"
Yan Canglan's pupils shrank, but he still tried to remain calm: "Even so, don't think you can control me easily. The Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion is my home, and I won't let a woman from another family succeed easily."
Lu Yundi chuckled and said, "In that case, let's see who is the real winner. However, before that, I want to remind you not to act rashly. Otherwise, you will be charged with the crime of being unfilial and bring shame to the entire Zhongyong Marquis's Mansion."
Yan Canglan stared at Lu Yundi, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, but soon, he seemed to remember something, and his expression softened a little: "Okay, I will believe you for now. But if you are lying to me, I will never let you go."
Lu Yundi smiled gently and said, "You can verify it at any time. However, I believe you will soon understand that I did not lie to you."
On the side, Yan Canglan's sister Yan Shuqin also thought that Lu Yundi was deliberately making up lies to deceive them.
A hint of determination flashed in her eyes, her lips were pursed, and she turned around and was about to walk out.
"Stop!" Lu Yundi shouted coldly, and his figure was as fast as lightning, instantly blocking Yan Shuqin's way.
Yan Shuqin looked up at Lu Yundi, her eyes full of doubt: "Why did you stop me? It's obvious that you deliberately made up a lie to deceive us two children!"
Lu Yundi's eyes softened instantly. She sighed softly and explained with a smile, "Your grandfather and grandmother went to Qingdao to recuperate for a while last night. Didn't anyone tell you and your sister?"
Yan Canglan frowned slightly, with a bit of doubt and distrust on his handsome face: "Mother, grandparents are old, would they really suddenly decide to travel a long distance to Qingdao? This sounds incredible."
Lu Yundi gently patted Yan Canglan's hand, his eyes full of love: "I know you can't believe it, but it's true. Your grandfather has always longed for the sea, and your grandmother also wants to see the red tiles and green trees of Qingdao."
Yan Shuqin bit her lower lip, with a puzzled look in her beautiful eyes: "But why didn't they let us know? We are their grandchildren, don't they want us to be with them?"
Lu Yundi smiled slightly and winked playfully: "You don't know this, Shuqin. Your grandfather said that he knew you would be worried and would dissuade him, so it would be better not to tell you, go quietly, come back quietly, and give you a surprise."
Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin looked at each other and could see a bit of depression and disappointment in each other's eyes.
They knew that their grandparents loved them, but this sudden surprise was really hard for them to accept.
It's obvious that their grandparents left them at home, handed them over to this vicious stepmother, and just walked away without caring about them?
How cruel!
Seeing that Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin still couldn't accept this fact, Lu Yundi looked at the butler beside him and said, "Butler, you tell me."
The housekeeper bowed slightly, his eyes firm, and said in a deep voice: "Reporting to Madam, the old marquis and the old lady have indeed left the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion last night. Last night, I personally arranged their itinerary to ensure that everything went smoothly. Before leaving, the old lady also specifically instructed that the young master and the young lady must listen to Madam and not act recklessly."
Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin looked at each other, and the shock on their faces became more and more obvious.
Yan Canglan pondered for a moment, puffed his lips and asked: "Butler, since grandpa and grandma have left the Marquis' Mansion, what should we do in the future?"
The housekeeper thought for a moment, looked at Lu Yundi respectfully, and said, "Before the old marquis and the old lady left, they specifically told us two things. First, the young master and the young lady must get along with the new lady and not have any more disputes. Second, the affairs of the mansion must be fully handed over to the lady to manage. We must fully support any decision made by the lady and must not violate it."
"What?" Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin were both stunned and speechless for a moment.
The atmosphere suddenly became stiff, and even the air seemed to have solidified.
After hearing these words, the two siblings seemed to have been struck by a bolt from the blue, and all their previous arrogance disappeared without a trace.
They suffered a night of hunger in vain, it was really not worth it!
As luck would have it, the maids just brought in breakfast.
They came in one after another and placed a plate of dim sum, a bowl of taro porridge, and several side dishes neatly.
Lotus leaf chicken, shredded fish, West Lake water shield, and short rib soup are a combination of meat and vegetables. Although there are not many dishes, they are almost all Lu Yundi's favorites.
Lu Yundi sat at the table, looking at the sumptuous food, a hint of pride flashed in his eyes.
She flicked her sleeves lightly and told the maids, "Bring all of this to my room. Yan Canglan and Yan Shuqin were both threatening to go on a hunger strike, so leave some for them."
The maids took the order and were about to take action when they heard an angry shout: "Wait!"
Everyone was stunned, and saw Yan Canglan rushing over angrily.
There was obvious anger on his face and an unyielding light in his eyes.
"Bad girl, what are you up to again!"
Lu Yundi smiled slightly and said calmly, "What's wrong? Master Yan, I am just following your wishes of going on a hunger strike. I have at least left some food for you, right?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Canglan immediately became emotional: "Don't even think about it! How could I not eat? These are all ours, who dares to steal them? Hurry up and serve the food, I want to eat now!"
