After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

Chapter 158: Grass, insects, and ants are insignificant and have lowly lives!

"When a son grows up, he is no longer under his father's control. As for Luo Chuan, I am afraid that my son may not be able to persuade him..."

Old Mrs. Qiao glared at him unhappily. Facing the idiot she gave birth to, she had the urge to stuff him back into her stomach.

"I told you before that we should treat each other equally. Even if you dislike the Lu family and their children, at least you should do things in a way that people won't criticize you. But you ignored it and didn't take it seriously. Now you are heartbroken... Humph!"

Old Qiao habitually wanted to turn the Buddhist beads, but then he remembered that the beads had been broken and thrown away.

Bai Yanlang also noticed that the Buddhist beads she always kept in her hand were missing, "Mom, where are the 100-year-old Buddhist beads my father asked for you?"

"Throw it away."

"Throw it away?!"

Bai Yan's voice rose, "You have always treasured me, why do you suddenly not want me anymore?"

Old Qiao glanced at him meaningfully and said, "When doing anything, give up when you should, ignore the chaos, and give up when you are deeply trapped. Suffering has its time, and it will not go back and forth."

Bai Yanlang only knew one side of the story, "Mom, what do you mean by that?"

"The capable ones work harder, the wise ones worry more, just be yourself."

Old Mrs. Qiao looked at her mentally retarded son and sighed, "Okay, go back to your yard. I'm tired."

Seeing her propping up her head and closing her eyes to rest, Bai Yanlang stood up and walked out briskly.

Along the way, he kept thinking about his mother's words "The capable should work harder", and touched the back of his head, "The capable should work harder, the wise should worry more, and the incompetent should ask for nothing..."

He murmured to himself, only then realizing that his own mother was indirectly scolding him for being incompetent.

"Hey, this old lady!"

Bai Yanlang pursed his lips in grievance, and thought that he had not yet visited his injured fourth daughter, so he turned around and headed for Lu's Fangfei Garden.

Cuizhu led the maids and servants in the yard to carry firewood in. Bai Yanlang looked at the various kitchen utensils piled at the door of the small kitchen and asked in surprise, "Is your wife going to open a small kitchen?"

"Madam said that the young lady's injuries were serious and she needed to be taken care of carefully. It was inconvenient to go to the big kitchen all the time, so she ordered the servant to open a small kitchen."

Cuizhu looked indifferent.

She spoke politely, but Lu's original words included greetings to three generations of the Marquis's Mansion. Except for the fourth young lady, even the second young master did not escape.

The lady can scold, but she, a servant, cannot, otherwise she would have to put her hands on her hips and say a few words.

"Too."

Bai Yanlang put his hands behind his back and nodded seriously, "It is indeed much more convenient to open a small kitchen."

"You guys clean up, I'll go check on your fourth young lady."

When Bai Yanlang was about to go to the side room, Cuizhu quickly reached out to stop him, "Master, the fourth young lady was in so much pain that she didn't sleep all night yesterday. She just took some medicine and went to bed."

"Is the injury so serious?"

Bai Yanlang was startled, "It looked like he only had some minor skin injuries that day..."

"The skin and flesh on both of Miss Fourth's calves were completely ulcerated. The doctor said that if it had been any later, she might not have been able to save both of her legs."

Cuizhu was shocked when she saw Bai Youyou's injuries.

It was covered by clothes before and didn't look obvious. When the doctor removed everything stuck to the skin, the bloody flesh underneath was exposed. It was really horrifying!

Bai Yanlang thought that he was the culprit of all this, and his eyes were filled with guilt.

No wonder when Mrs. Lu saw him yesterday, she said nothing but picked up the broom and beat him to death.

He touched the tip of his nose and said, "Then I'll come see her tomorrow."

Cuizhu looked at his back, her eyes full of contempt. She called out to the two maids, "Let's fire tonight, move faster."

The sun was setting, and the large kitchen was already busy preparing meals for more than a hundred people.

In the kitchen, steam was rising and the sound of pots and pans colliding was endless.

Chunliu came over with a lunch box and looked around nervously.

When Madam Xu saw her, she smiled and said, "Chunliu, why are you here so early to get food for Aunt Qiao?"

Mother Xu is an old lady in the Marquis's Mansion. She is kind to everyone and is a well-known good person in the kitchen.

Chun Liu smiled unnaturally, "Our aunt has been unable to eat these days, so I came to the kitchen to see if there is any soup that can whet the appetite, so I can get some for her."

"Your aunt has a hard life too."

Mother Xu said with pity, and then said enthusiastically: "Today the kitchen stewed Jianyang mutton soup for the old lady, I think there is quite a lot."

"Thank you, Mama Xu."

Chun Liu thanked her gratefully, her eyes passing over the stew pot marked with the brand of the fourth lady of the second house on the serving board.

"Wait a minute, I'll make you a bowl."

Mother Xu smiled brightly, turned around and walked towards the big stove.

The kitchen was filled with steam, and the maids and cooks were busy with their own work. Chun Liu looked around and saw that no one was paying attention to this side, so he immediately opened the white stew pot on the table and quickly poured the powder in his hand into it.

"Come on, come on, all right."

Mother Xu's hoarse voice came from behind. Chun Liu was so scared that her face turned pale. She immediately turned around and took the food box from Mother Xu's hand. "Thank you, Mother Xu. When I get back, I will tell our aunt about your kindness."

"Haha, it's just a bowl of soup, it's nothing."

Mother Xu spoke modestly, but her face was wrinkled with smile, "From now on, if you want to eat anything, just come and tell me."

"Well, my aunt is still waiting, so I won't say more to you."

Chunliu's heart was pounding, afraid that someone would notice something was wrong. After she said that, she quickly left the kitchen with the food box.

Mother Xu stared at her back, and the chrysanthemum-like smile she had just had suddenly disappeared, and a cruel smile appeared at the corner of her lips.

Weeds, insects and ants are insignificant and their lives are worthless!

Just as she was sneering, a chubby servant came running over, "Mother Xu, the Second Madam just sent someone to say that they have opened a small kitchen, so they don't have to cook for her and the Fourth Miss for the time being."

Mother Xu suppressed the expression in her eyes, wiped the sweat off her forehead with her fat hands, and said kindly, "I know, I know."

With two less meals to cook for, the people in the kitchen were much more relaxed. Mother Xu didn't care much. "It just so happens that Miss Fifth also wants to drink Four Ingredients Soup today, so let's give Miss Fourth's portion to Miss Fifth."

"Yes."

The servant immediately tore off the sign that read 'Second House, Fourth Miss' and replaced it with 'Second House, Fifth Miss'.

In Weiruixuan, Aunt Qiao looked at the Jianyang mutton soup in front of her, which was white and rich with a layer of green onions floating on the surface, and her drooping eyes moved several times.

"Who gave you this soup?"

"It was Madam Xu from the kitchen. She felt sorry for you and gave you a bowl of soup from the old lady's tonic."

Mother Xu?

Aunt Qiao pondered for a moment and shook her head, "I have no appetite, you eat it."

Chunliu pushed the bowl towards her and said, "Aunt, you haven't eaten well these days. You should eat something."

"This mutton soup is too greasy. It would be a waste if you pour it out. Eat it while it's hot. After you finish, go make me some rice porridge."

Aunt Qiao pushed the bowl away.

It is still unknown who Mother Xu is, so how dare she eat the food handed over by these people.

Even though Marquis Yongning was so careful, he still fell into the trap of the old woman. I have to be careful!
