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

Liu slapped the table, angrily scolded him for being a blockhead, pointed at Lu Yanxiu and said, "Just because Su He was jealous of Qi Qi entering the mansion and being pregnant with your child, she didn't even take care of your mother! Poor mother, she can't move an inch, lying in bed crying all day, and it's hard for her to see Su He! You tell me, Zhang is her mother-in-law after all. Even if you two want to divorce and separate, what's wrong with her being more filial? In my opinion, her previous virtuous appearance was all pretended. She was eager to get rid of your mother-in-law as soon as possible, and it would be best if she didn't serve anyone!"

Lu Yanxiu has always felt sorry for his mother. When he heard Liu was so indignant, he also blamed Su He in his heart.

No matter what, it was not time to separate yet, and Zhang was still her mother-in-law, not a stranger whom she didn't even want to see.

"You don't have to interfere in Su He's affairs. I will make my own decision." Liu said again.

Lu Yanxiu bowed his head and said hello.

At this time, the voice of Butler Zhu came from outside the courtyard gate.

"Madam, Master, the Madam is back!"

Liu was about to stand up and quickly called for housekeeper Zhu: "Stop her outside! A woman who has ruined her reputation wants to enter my mansion. It's simply wishful thinking! I will announce to the neighbors today to drive her out of the Lu Mansion!"

Butler Zhu outside the courtyard was a little confused. Should the people from the Princess's Mansion also be intercepted outside?

Outside Lu Mansion.

Su He got off the carriage and bowed to Qing Yun.

Following Lu Huaihe's instructions, she rode in the eldest princess's carriage, which was luxurious and spacious, comparable to a magnificent little house.

"You're welcome, young lady."

Qingyun escorted the people to the destination, mounted his horse and prepared to leave.

But Liu came out with staggering steps. When she saw Su He, she couldn't help but yelled, "How dare you come back, you shameless thing?"

Qingyun retracted his horse's foot, raised his eyebrows, and stayed where he was.

Liu pointed at Su He with a beaming face, while Lu Yanxiu, who was following beside her, watched quietly without saying a word. He must have also believed that Su He had become a woman despised by others!

It seems that the two generations are in agreement.

Su He held up her dress and walked forward, standing at eye level with Liu. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, and she asked with a little surprise: "I went to the Princess's Mansion for a banquet today, not to collude with anyone. The old lady is so eager and excited to accuse me of losing my innocence. Does she know some reason? Otherwise, slandering me is slandering the Princess's Mansion!"

"You're talking nonsense!" Liu narrowed her eyes and said in an extremely strong tone, "Yan Xiu and Qi Qi have already returned home. Only you disappeared at the banquet. You just came back after dark today. Didn't you do something wrong?"

It seems that Liu is very clear about the details of the banquet.

Su He looked at Lu Yanxiu, a smile flashed across her eyes, and she raised her voice in front of the surrounding neighbors, saying, "I didn't sit with my husband at the banquet because Sister Liu took my seat. Sister Liu is my husband's favorite, and the mother of Yi'er and Jiao'er. I'm afraid I can't even compare to one ten-thousandth of her contribution, so I gave my seat to her and sat at the end of the banquet."

“In the end, the old lady tried to slander me just because I was missing. It’s really chilling!”

Liu didn't know about this yet. She turned around and looked at Lu Yanxiu, intending to ask him something.

Lu Yanxiu nodded.

Liu said again: "Even so, is it true that you came home late? As a married woman, if you don't accompany your husband, there must be something fishy!"

As she spoke, she winked at Mrs. Yang beside her.

Mother Yang immediately rushed forward and rolled up Su He's sleeves, exposing her smooth and delicate skin without a trace.

Liu didn't believe it, so she stepped forward and pulled up Su He's other sleeve, but there was still no sign of injury!

That’s not right. She had informed the brother and sister that they must leave a mark on Su He’s arm, so how come there was no mark?

Su He took Liu's behavior into consideration, slowly put down his sleeves, raised his hand, and gave Mrs. Yang a loud slap in the face!

"You dare to hit me?"

Mother Yang grimaced in pain, and several red finger marks immediately appeared on her cheeks. Because she was in front of others, she swallowed all the dirty words that were about to burst out, but still questioned confidently: "I served the current princess. Who do you think you are to dare to hit me?"

When the princess married Lu Zhiping, Mrs. Yang, as a servant in the Lu residence, had the honor of going to the princess's residence to serve her several times.

Su He rubbed his aching fingers and narrowed his eyes slightly: "Since I am serving you, am I not still a slave?"

She believed that after she married into the mansion, she treated all the servants equally.

Especially the slightly older maids like Mrs. Yang would often take care of the baby, help him when he was sick, and give him red envelopes as rewards during festivals.

Unexpectedly, she completely disregarded their past friendship, stood on the same side with Liu, and even rolled up her sleeves in public!

"Su He, if you hit her you are hitting me!" Liu screamed.

As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Yang was slapped again, this time by Pei Xia.

"My young lady is a delicate lady, so leave the heavy lifting to me!"

Mother Yang pushed Pei Xia aside and waved her hands to strangle Su He's neck!

She had worked for the Lu Mansion for decades and thought she could grow old in dignity, but she never expected to be slapped twice in the face by this girl outside the mansion? How could she stay in the mansion after that?

Just as Yang Po's rough palm was about to touch Su He's neck, Qing Yun appeared in time to block her, preventing Su He from getting hurt at all.

Qingyun thought that if he didn't take action, the young master might punish him.

Lu Yanxiu was a little surprised. That was Lu Huaihe's guard, whom he had seen before at the palace gate.

"The princess invited the young lady to talk, but she forgot the time, so I had to escort her back home after dinner. If Madam Lu and Master Lu have any questions, they can go with me to the princess's mansion to ask them clearly, and to help the young lady clear her grievances."

Hearing the word "grievance", Su He lowered her eyes, tears gradually forming in her eyes.

Qingyun's tone was calm, which surprised Liu a little.

Zhaoyang had cut off ties with the Lu family for many years, so why did he call Su He to talk now? Wasn't Yan Xiu also at the table? Why didn't he let him stay?

When Liu was about to ask for clarification, her wrist was grabbed by Lu Yanxiu, who had already said, "Please thank the princess on my behalf!"

Lu Yanxiu walked up to Su He and found that her shoulders were trembling slightly, with a hypocritical light flashing in her eyes: "We were rude, so let Madam apologize. Madam's body is shaking a little, are you feeling unwell?"

The slap she had given to Granny Yang just now was too strong, causing the wound on Su He's shoulder to tear painfully. She naturally couldn't show her true colors in front of Lu Yanxiu, so she stepped back slightly, keeping a distance from Lu Yanxiu, and said in a light voice: "My husband, you are worrying too much."
