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

Lu tried hard to control the words that wanted to come out of her throat and quickened her pace.

The old lady was feeding the red goldfish in the fish tank with fish food. When Madam Jiang saw Lu, she immediately smiled and said, "Old lady, the eldest young master and the eldest young lady are back."

The old lady turned her head towards the door and saw the brother and sister walking quickly towards them. She handed the remaining fish food in her hand to Jiang Momo.

"mother!"

Lu ran over like a young swallow returning to its nest.

"Youyou and Luochuan didn't come?"

The old lady asked Lu Zhenguo the same question, and Lu smiled and explained, "They are all busy. When they are free, I will let them come to see you."

Lu Zhenguo smiled and teased: "Mom, my sister brought you something good, and she said she wanted to shock me."

"Oh, what's the good stuff?"

The old lady became curious.

Although the family was not wealthy, they received a lot of jewels from the palace every year, so they were quite knowledgeable.

Anything that could shock them all must be extraordinary.

Mrs. Lu placed the food box in her hand on the round table in the room. She opened the food box, revealing the yellow paper bag inside.

Lu Zhenguo reached out his big hand, picked up the paper bag and opened it, his eyes suddenly widened.

“This is purple Ganoderma lucidum!”

The purple Ganoderma lucidum was as big as an adult's palm, purple all over, with a faint medicinal fragrance, but a small piece was cut off at the tail.

The old lady was also shocked when she saw the growth rings on it. "This purple Ganoderma lucidum must be more than a hundred years old."

She raised her eyes and looked at Lu, "Where did you get this purple Ganoderma lucidum?"

The old lady likes quietness, and usually only Nanny Jiang is in the courtyard. Lu didn't avoid it, and just lowered her voice, "This is the prince's."

"Nonsense!"

When the old lady heard about the prince, she thought it was a gift from the prince, and her kind face suddenly turned cold, "Hurry up and return the things!"

Lu Zhenguo's face darkened as well. "This purple Ganoderma lucidum is precious, but we can't take the prince's things."

They all knew what the prince was planning.

The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is already powerful and influential, which makes the emperor wary of it. If this is related to the prince, the emperor will probably be uneasy day and night.

Lu was frightened by the two men's appearance and shrank her neck. She said weakly, "Just listen to what I have to say."

The old lady and Lu Zhenguo pursed their lips and stared at her seriously.

"This was given by Doctor Pang."

Mrs. Lu told the whole story of Bai Yaoyao's accident. When Lu Zhenguo and the old lady learned that it was Doctor Pang who gave them the disease, their expressions eased.

The old lady asked, "Are you saying that Aunt Qiao failed to poison Youyou, but instead caused her own daughter to be poisoned?"

"Well, if the prince didn't have the purple Ganoderma lucidum in his hand, I would have almost died."

Mrs. Lu didn't know Doctor Pang. The old lady and he grew up together as childhood sweethearts, and she knew very well what kind of person Doctor Pang was.

It's not that he needs purple Ganoderma lucidum to save his life. It's obvious that he was angry with the prince and asked him to cut his flesh on purpose.

"This matter must be kept secret and must not be leaked."

When the old lady said this, her eyes were fixed on her daughter.

"I know, I promise I won't tell anyone!"

Lu knew that she couldn't control her tongue sometimes, but she knew the importance of things and immediately raised three fingers to make a promise.

After making the promise, she opened the top layer of the food box.

When Lu Zhenguo and the old lady saw the pile of banknotes, their pupils suddenly shrank.

Lu Zhenguo looked at the thick stack of silver notes with a face value of 100 taels and estimated that there were tens of thousands of taels.

He recalled what happened in Yongning Marquis's mansion before, and asked in surprise, "Before, Bai Qingyu said that Youyou won 100,000 taels of silver in Yong'an Marquis's gambling house. Is this true?"

The old lady also remembered what Bai Qingyu said that day, and frowned, "Who did Youyou go to the gambling house with?"

That day they all thought that Bai Qingyu was deliberately slandering Bai Youyou and didn't take it seriously. They didn't expect it to be true.

"Youyou didn't say."

Lu shook her head, her clear eyes full of innocence.

The old lady looked at her innocent appearance and sighed helplessly, "If she doesn't tell you, you won't ask?"

"Youyou is the smartest in my family. She has her own reasons for doing things. Why should I ask?"

Not only was Lu justified, she was also proud of it.

Her daughter is much smarter than her. Youyou will definitely tell her what she should know, but she will just ignore what she shouldn't know.

Anyway...she's not very tight-lipped.

"You." The old lady was speechless and choked. She raised her hand and tapped her forehead. "You are quite self-aware in this regard."

"Here is fifty thousand taels of silver, brother, take it to the border and buy whatever you need."

Lu said proudly, "I still have 50,000 taels. I have discussed with Youyou that we should use this money to buy farmland. We can grow more food and avoid being caught off guard by natural disasters or man-made disasters in the future."

"That's very good."

The old lady smiled and nodded.

Lu Zhenguo thought of the little thing called soap made in the farm and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Youyou is really the lucky star of our family."

"Isn't it?"

Jiang Momo couldn't help but interrupt, "In previous years, many people came to ask for help, but this year, because of the young lady, there are much fewer people."

"When I buy the farmland, I can arrange for another batch of them. As long as they are not lazy, they will have no trouble making ends meet."

Lu Zhenguo patted his thigh, wishing that his soldiers could all live a good life with enough food and warm clothing in the future.

The old lady couldn't help but curl up the corners of her lips, which had been suppressed.

Yes, God took pity on her, the Duke of Zhenguo Mansion, and specially sent such a lucky star here.

Everyone here was in great joy. At the Yongning Marquis' Mansion, old Mrs. Qiao sent someone to call Aunt Qiao over.

"aunt."

With the handle in hand, Aunt Qiao was too lazy to follow even the most basic rules when she saw Old Mrs. Qiao. She shouted and walked straight to the chair next to Old Mrs. Qiao and sat down.

Old Mrs. Qiao glanced at her coldly and raised her chin towards Feng Momo who was standing beside her.

Feng Momo and Huang Ma Ma understood each other, and they retreated with their heads lowered, clearing all the maids and old women out of the yard.

Aunt Qiao looked at her sneerfully, "Aunt is being so mysterious, could it be that she is trying to poison my niece and silence her?"

Old Qiao raised his cloudy eyes, but did not answer her. He just curled his lips and sneered, "You won't survive even if I kill you."

Aunt Qiao's sarcastic smile froze, "What do you mean?"

"Qiao Lao San."

The three words that Old Mrs. Qiao uttered slowly made Aunt Qiao's face change. "What do you want to say?"

"Qiao Lao San has been captured by the people from the Zhenguo Mansion and has been sent to Jingzhao Yin."

Old Mrs. Qiao turned her newly acquired emerald bracelet and stared at Aunt Qiao. "You think that Taoist Zhang has done a perfect job, but unfortunately, nothing in this world can be done perfectly."

Even she herself couldn't do it.
