The Concubine's Daughter Travels Through Time and Space and Takes the Road of Confrontation

"Grandma, you said Lu Cheng was beaten?" Lu Song knelt on the ground, his eyes bright. "Do you know who did it?"

The old lady gave him a displeased look and said, "No matter who did it, everyone in the mansion will think it was you. Otherwise, you would be kicked out of the school."

Lu Song smiled, revealing his big white teeth. "I really want to beat him up, but I just haven't found the right opportunity." This kid relied on his father being the clan leader to show off his power in school all day long and bully his classmates.

Old Master Lu San pretended to raise his hand to hit him. "You still want to hit me? I think you are asking for a beating."

The old lady put down the teacup in her hand and spoke for her grandson, "You don't know what the main house in the mansion is like? The mistress chases dogs and scolds chickens at home all day long. In the end, she raises the motherless illegitimate son as her own. What kind of good son can she raise?" Old Lady Lu San has always been quick-tempered.

Old Master Lu San pondered, "So, Song'er was indeed wronged."

The old lady smiled. "It's not that he's wronged. He always likes to pick fights in school. When Young Master Lu bullies someone, he'll intervene. When Young Master Lu hires someone to help him cheat, he'll expose it to the teacher. When Young Master Lu wants to send a classmate to the store to buy snacks, he'll tell them all in front of them. Young Master Lu can't beat him, so he has to go around. Isn't that infuriating?"

Lu Song laughed out loud, and stopped kneeling. He leaned back slightly and sat down with his hands on the ground. "Who told him to always bully people, especially those from poor families? He likes to laugh at people who are poor. There was a student who finished his homework in the clan school every day after school to save money on lamp oil. When Lu Cheng saw this, he had him chased away and even had the servants tear up all his homework." Lu Song raised his stiff eyebrows. "I just can't stand it. If he wasn't lucky enough to be registered under the name of his legitimate mother, he might have lived a worse life than us. He becomes arrogant as soon as he gets proud. Humph."

Old Master Lu San thought of his deceased brother and couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity that the descendants of the eldest house have such terrible character."

"I told my sister-in-law at the beginning that Madam Qin's control over the harem is extremely strict. I heard that someone was killed in it. I think it's best to be cautious when choosing a daughter of the Qin family. But she said that the Qin family is wealthy and powerful, and they hold high positions in government, so it's only natural for their daughters to be spoiled." The old lady said slowly, "Look at what's happened to the first wife now. There is only one illegitimate son, and a while ago there was a quarrel and several others were sent to prison. It really is true that marrying an unvirtuous wife will ruin three generations." After speaking, she sighed deeply, "It's a pity that the other children were driven out because of Song'er. I think they are all good people."

Anger welled up in Lu Song's chest, and soon his shoulders slumped again. He crawled forward with his hands like a cricket and said, "Grandpa, they are all good people. It's just that they are often praised by the teacher for their good grades in school. Lu Cheng has been targeting them in various ways, and this time they have been implicated by me..." He put his head on his grandfather's lap in frustration.

Old Master Lu San pushed his grandson's head away in disdain. "What were you doing before? Now you come to beg me." Lu Song turned around and grabbed his grandmother's hand, begging softly, "Grandma, Grandma——"

The old lady couldn't stand the offensive of her darling grandson. She smiled with her teeth showing and said, "My dear grandson, don't worry." Then she gave the old man a sharp look.

Old Master Lu San: “——” This brat!

The snow finally stopped after falling for several days. Mr. Jiang stood under the eaves and watched the children sweeping the snow. From a distance, he saw several familiar figures walking towards the school. When they got closer, Mr. Jiang saw that they were the students who were expelled from the clan school, and the leader was Lu Song.

He hurriedly pulled everyone inside. Lu Song was wearing a brand new dark-patterned blue brocade robe. Two braids emerged from each hairline, tied high with the rest of his hair by a gold crown inlaid with white jade. He wore a black calfskin belt around his waist and sheepskin boots. His malt-colored face, framed by a gray fox fur collar, revealed a full set of white teeth in a smile. He looked a truly handsome young man. The others were also dressed neatly, exuding a vibrant and energetic spirit.

"How have you been lately?" Mr. Jiang asked, feeling a little relieved.

"Thank you for your concern, sir. I have been doing well recently and my livestock is thriving." Lu Song was the first to bow to the teacher with a smile, then took out a cloth bag from his sleeve and put it on the table.

The students who were traveling with him also smiled and bowed respectfully to the teacher. "We decided to come visit you during the holidays and pooled some money to buy you a good ink stick."

Mr. Jiang patted Lu Song lightly in annoyance. "Is this how you use the phrase 'Six Livestock, Prosperity'?" "Go away and embarrass me, and don't say I taught you that." Suddenly remembering something, he asked, "I heard from students a few days ago that you have a place to study again?"

Facing the teacher's inquiring gaze, Lu Song nodded with some pride, "My grandfather heard that the clan school of the Zhang family in the west of the city has always accepted students with good qualifications but outside the family, so he asked us to try." Lu Song bowed solemnly to the teacher at this point, "I have to thank the teacher for his usual careful teaching. Otherwise, I would not have passed the assessment of the Zhang family teacher. Among them, Xuezhu was praised by the teacher." As he said, he smiled and looked at the young man behind him. The young man had a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was wearing a cotton robe that was washed white. It was he who was doing homework in the school and was kicked out by Lu Cheng.

Mr. Jiang happily said hello several times and looked at the young people. "Through wind and rain, your teacher can only accompany you up to this point. I hope you will study hard under Mr. Xin and don't let your parents down."

Everyone bowed their heads solemnly and responded in unison.

At this point, the storm finally came to an end.

The culprit was completely unaware of the incident and was being forced by Old Lady Zeng to drink bitter soup.

The old lady first said to Caihe, "Your daughter eats much more every day than children of the same age. I'm afraid she has a hidden illness." The old lady's expression was very serious when she said this, making Lu Yun feel as if there was really something wrong with her body.

Caihe was so frightened that she hurriedly asked the old lady to write a letter to the lady at home to explain the reason. It took two days to go back and forth.

Not knowing what her mother said to the old lady in her heart, Lu Yun only knew that she began to experience pain for several days from then on.

The old lady somehow found an old man who looked like a sage. Even in the dead of winter, he was wearing a light, khaki robe. He reached out and took her pulse. He then declared her unwell, saying, "Blood is the nourishment, and Qi is the self. This causes the Sun Long Lei Fire to be strong, while the True Water is insufficient. This leads to a disharmony between the Heart and the Kidney, and imbalance of the True Essence. Therefore, I often feel internal heat and wind—" And so on and so forth, a string of obscure, difficult-to-understand, and quite frightening words.

Lu Yun, lying on the bed, felt like the sky was falling. She was indeed a defective product - wuwuwu.

After sending the doctor off, Mrs. Zeng smiled and grabbed Lu Yun's hand, saying, "Don't be afraid, sister Yun. Grandma has a good prescription that will cure you. I guarantee you'll be cured." Really? Lu Yun looked at her grandmother with tears in her eyes.
