My concubine is pregnant, I tear up the marriage certificate and marry another powerful official

Lingluo Lane on Zhuque Street was where she died.

Shouldn't Lu Yanxiu light a stick of incense and confess his sins for her in her previous life?

Su He has a petite figure and looks even thinner standing in the bamboo forest.

Going to the most prosperous Zhuque Street in Beijing naked and barefoot? And even burning a stick of incense and kneeling for half an hour? Isn't this just trampling his face on the ground repeatedly?

Lu Yanxiu couldn't believe that those were the words she said. His eyes trembled and he immediately refused decisively: "Don't go too far!"

"It's your choice whether to lose face or your son's life."

Lu Yanxiu's pupils widened slightly, as if he was feeling uneasy as if he was being spied on.

He thought to himself that if Ji'er could be cured, he would spend all his family wealth. But if he was not sure, it would be like what his grandmother said. He could not lose both money and people. It would be better to throw him into the wilderness and let him fend for himself!

"In short, I won't do what you ask." He was indignant and unwilling.

"It seems that your face is still the most valuable."

Su He raised an eyebrow and walked past him.

In this world, what you value most is what you often lose.

Isn’t the Lu family the one that cares most about face?

Then just wait.

"You..." Lu Yanxiu tried to argue with Su He and subconsciously pulled her sleeve, but the smooth and delicate corner of the clothes slipped through his fingers.

Su He left without looking back.

Lu Yanxiu looked at his empty palm and gritted his teeth in anger, "Su He, don't go too far!"

After suffering a setback at the Su family, Lu Yanxiu had no where to go and had to return home in disgrace.

Upon hearing the news of his return, Liu Qiuqiu quickly sent Mingchun to invite him over and asked him about the old immortal, with hope in her eyes.

"The Su family is unwilling to disclose the news. I guess there is no other way..."

Lu Yanxiu had no choice but to tell the truth and complained to Su He for a while, still feeling resentful in his heart.

Liu Qiuqiu's straight back suddenly softened on the bed. She looked at the swaddling clothes beside her and turned away reluctantly. "You said before that Su He was kind and gentle, but now it seems that she is just so-so! I was sorry for what happened before. I shouldn't have gotten pregnant and had a child before her. But how can the grudges of adults be blamed on the child? Ji'er is still so young, how can he be allowed to have such a stain?"

As soon as the words fell, the sobbing sound gradually began to rise again.

When Lu Yanxiu heard her crying, he immediately became restless and said impatiently, "You're almost crying your eyes out, you should take a break."

"I am still sad for Ji'er. If he can't be cured, he will spend the rest of his life being laughed at by others. It's better to kill him now..."

Liu Qiuqiu didn't finish the next few words. She looked at Lu Yanxiu timidly, her face tearful and she said, "Husband, go and ask grandma to think of a solution!"

She had so much money hidden in her private vault, who could use it? After all, she was the blood of the Lu family, so how could she be reluctant to give it away? As long as the money was enough, there would be no problem finding a miracle doctor in the world.

Lu Yanxiu looked embarrassed and said reluctantly, "Grandmother meant... just drown him."

"...I went through so much trouble to give birth to him, not for him to go to see the King of Hell!" Liu Qiuqiu complained with tears in her eyes, but she knew better than anyone that it is better to die cleanly than to live in pain in this world!

Lu Yanxiu still remembered her complaining about her first birth when he was not around. Thinking of that, all the complaints and dissatisfaction in recent days disappeared. Lu Yanxiu stepped forward and hugged Liu Qiuqiu in his arms, comforting her with heartache: "During this period of time, I will do my best to find the old immortal. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, I will never give up!"

While feeling sad, Liu Qiuqiu sensitively smelled a faint scent of powder on Lu Yanxiu's body.

Considering that he had just met Su He...I couldn't help but let my mind wander.

The night fell and it was gloomy.

Su He was kept at Wang's house for dinner before she left. When she was sitting in the carriage back to Su's house and passed by Yanque Tower, she saw a familiar face.

She had seen that face in her previous life.

"Stop."

Su He lifted a corner of the carriage curtain and saw a man dressed in servant's clothes, holding a handful of silver in his hand. He looked at the door for a long time, then walked into Yanque Tower with a smirk on his face.

"What's wrong, Miss?" Pei Xia asked.

Su He looked at the signboard of Yanque Tower and heard the sounds of gambling and cheering coming from inside. He frowned and asked, "Is this a gambling house?"

"Yes, it's the largest gambling house in the capital. I heard it's owned by the Second Prince. Did you see someone you know, Miss?"

"Acquaintances don't count, but enemies do."

The man was four points similar to Liu Qiuqiu, with a rough appearance and reckless behavior, and it was obvious that he was a country boy.

And the portrait of the arsonist who caused the Su family to be burned down and provided by the Dali Temple in the previous life looked exactly like him!

Su He lowered the curtain, his eyes filled with hatred.

The similarity in appearance cannot be deceiving. The man is now wearing the clothes of a servant in the Lu Mansion, and it seems that he has a very close relationship with Liu Qiuqiu.

Su He quickly sent people to the gambling houses to check them out, and finally found out some information.

"The man's name is Liu Jinglei. He is a villager from Chengwaizhuang Village 2. His parents are still alive. He has married and has two sons. Liu Jinglei has been idle for many years. Instead, he hangs out in gambling houses and brothels every day. He is very generous every time he spends, as if he has a fortune behind him. He has a younger sister, who is... Liu Qiuqiu."

Pei Xia paid a large sum of money to find out these details. To her surprise, Liu Jinglei and Liu Qiuqiu were actually siblings? No wonder they looked a bit alike. I heard that he was on duty at the Lu Mansion now. Didn't Lu Yanxiu notice it?

"He likes to go to the gambling house?"

"Whenever I have free time, I have to go there three times a day!"

Su He understood and thought about it carefully for a while, then instructed Pei Xia: "Send someone to guard in front of Yanque Tower and observe how often he goes to the gambling house. Since he is Liu Qiuqiu's brother, everything can be discussed."

This time, it was her turn to be in the dark.

Pei Xia agreed.

Outside the courtyard, Qingyun waited outside and handed the things Lu Huaihe had ordered to Pei Xia, asking him to pass them on to Su He. It wasn't a valuable thing, but it was very special.

It is a handmade love knot that can be tied around the wrist.

"Qingyun said that this was woven by Lord Lu himself and sent here specially."

Su He picked up the love knot and looked at it carefully. It was delicate in shape and evenly matched in color. When she wore it on her wrist, the red rope set off her fair skin, and it looked simple and beautiful.

She smiled softly and asked Pei Xia to reply: "Tell Qingyun that I accepted the things."

Qingyun outside the courtyard clapped and cheered when he heard this, which made Pei Xia a little confused.

"My young lady accepted Lord Lu's things, why are you so happy?"

"You do not understand."

Pei Xia was annoyed: "You're the only one who understands?"

"That's a love knot. Can you and I use a love knot? The master can give it to me, and the lady can accept it as she wishes. Don't you understand what it means?"
