My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

Lan first politely asked if the Lu family was okay.

Lu Zhenzhen remained calm and composed: "Thank you for your concern, Madam. They are all doing well!"

Lan paused and didn't know what to ask next. After thinking for a while, she asked again how the return banquet went.

Lu Zhenzhen knew that the main part of the play was about to begin.

Her face immediately turned pale, and she said with a look of shame: "Speaking of the return banquet, I am really ashamed of the Fourth Master, ashamed of my mother, and ashamed of the Marquis' Mansion! The Fourth Master followed me back to the Marquis's house, but he didn't even get to enjoy the return banquet. We had dinner at Deyue Tower before returning!"

Lan then asked the question everyone wanted to know, "What's going on?"

The servant who came back to report was vague, only saying that everything was fine when he entered the Lu family, and the Lu family members were all waiting at the door to greet him, chatting and laughing.

Then the fourth master of the Lu family was accompanied to the study by the master and the eldest master of the Lu family.

Fourth Grandma followed Mrs. Lu and several girls to the main house. Mrs. Lu prepared a feast for them and asked the Lu family's housekeeper and the maid to accompany them.

Everything was fine and the banquet was about to begin when the Fourth Master and the Fourth Mistress came out.

The Lu family followed behind and sent them out, all with unhappy expressions.

The old lady and Mrs. Lan guessed that something strange might have happened in the Lu family.

The Lan family still looked down on the Lu family because of their character, even though the two families had become relatives.

It is not a good thing for someone to sell his daughter to a man with a hidden illness as a wife.

It seems like he scolded his own son as well?

That’s not important! What’s important is that the Lu family has bad character.

Poor daughter-in-law, she is a little pitiful to begin with. This time she came back to visit her husband, she didn’t even get to attend the return banquet!

This shows that they don’t take their mansion seriously!

Although the Lan family was not the kind of people who would bully others by taking advantage of their power, they couldn't help but want to teach the Lu family a lesson.

Seeing Lu Zhenzhen's guilty look, he hurriedly comforted her, "What does this have to do with you? You're a married woman, how can you care about your parents' affairs?"

Turning around, he looked at Old Lady Bai: "But, this Lu family is really going too far! Are they looking down on the Fourth Brother and his family? Old Lady, don't you think so?"

Mrs. Bai also frowned: "The Lu family's behavior is a bit absurd, but after all, they are the fourth son's wife's family-"

Lu Zhenzhen quickly raised her hand to signal, "Old lady, Madam, I, I have come back to the Lu family today and have severed all ties with them!"

"What?" Lan didn't hold the teacup firmly, and the tea spilled onto half of her skirt, but she didn't have time to care.

The old lady Bai spat out the tea in her mouth and choked, beating her chest.

Lu Zhenzhen hurried to the side of old lady Bai and comforted her.

When the old lady recovered her breath, she grabbed Lu Zhenzhen's hand and asked, "Fourth Brother, what's going on?"

How serious was the incident that caused the fourth brother's family to break off all ties with his mother's family?

Could it be that the Lu family is going to rebel?

Old Mrs. Bai had several thoughts running through her mind.

Lu Zhenzhen sighed and said melancholy, "The old lady and the mistress probably know about my family's affairs. I also understand that although outsiders think I married the Fourth Master, I actually know that my family pawned me off to the Marquis' Mansion in exchange for my eldest legitimate brother's release from prison. I am where I am today, thanks to the Fourth Master's favor for me, giving me respect, and allowing me to survive."

Speaking of this, a hint of discomfort flashed across the faces of Old Madam Bai and Third Madam Lan.

However, the two of them were old and thick-skinned, so this little discomfort soon passed.

Continue to listen to Lu Zhenzhen say: "I was born and raised by the Lu family. I saved my eldest brother from prison, which can be regarded as repaying the Lu family's kindness in raising me. Although I am a girl of the Lu family, I am now a wife of the Fu family! Because the Fourth Master values ​​me, I have a place to stay in the Marquis' Mansion. Naturally, I must put the Marquis' Mansion and the Fourth Master first in everything I do!"

"I thought everything would go smoothly when I returned home this time, but who knew that my stepmother and sisters wouldn't even ask me if I was doing well. Instead, they kept asking me to use the Marquis' Mansion to do good things for the Lu family, and to introduce the children of good families who have a good relationship with our family to my sisters—"

"How could I do such a wicked thing? I..."

Same time, another place.

In the small courtyard where the old marquis lived, Fu Zhiyi was also talking about this matter.

"The Lu family is truly greedy. Just a few days after releasing Lu Hu from prison, they've already started to think about other things. In the study, they first thought about having our mansion help the Lu family and get Lu Shijie promoted. If that doesn't work, they'll transfer him to a department with more money to spend."

"At worst, they actually want us to get a spot in the Imperial College for Lu Hu!"

"I was tired of hearing all this, so I used the excuse of going out to look for your granddaughter-in-law. When I got to the main house, I found that Mrs. Lu was threatening your granddaughter-in-law, telling her not to forget about seeking benefits for the Lu family and to find a way to marry off the remaining girls in the Lu family to families related to our mansion."

"It's so shameless!" The third master Fu Heyin was the first to get angry.

The old marquis glared at the third master and asked slowly, "What's your wife's attitude? Does she agree?"

Fu Zhiyi shook his head and sighed, "How could your granddaughter-in-law not listen? She refused on the spot! But her stepmother threatened her with her biological aunt! This forced your granddaughter-in-law to turn against her stepmother and sever all ties with the Lu family!"

"Oh? The Lu family actually raised such a strong-willed girl?" The old marquis became interested.

Fu Zhiyi's expression remained unchanged. "Your granddaughter-in-law said that although she is a daughter of the Lu family, she is now more of a wife of the Fu family! Naturally, she puts the Fu family's mansion first and her husband first in everything! She has already repaid the Lu family for raising her, and from now on she is a member of the Fu family! It is absolutely impossible for her to harm the interests of the Fu family!"

After hearing this, the Third Master couldn't help but exclaimed, "Fourth Brother, you've finally found a wife! Although she's from a humble family, she's sensible. Not bad!"

The old marquis suddenly asked, "Does your wife really not care about her biological aunt?"

Fu Zhiyi lowered his eyelids slightly, "Of course not! Your granddaughter-in-law said, 'Obey your father at home, and obey your husband after marriage!' She is already a wife of the Fu family, so naturally she has to obey me, her husband! And her aunt married Lord Lu, so she also has to obey Lord Lu! As a child, she can't separate her parents, right? And as long as she is in the Fu family, her aunt will naturally be fine."

The old marquis burst into laughter. "Not bad, not bad! Your wife is quite clever indeed! Not only does she know what to do, but she also knows how to let go!"

"Well, she is indeed a good granddaughter-in-law of our Fu family! Fourth Brother, you really married the right daughter-in-law! Although she comes from a humble background, she is very knowledgeable! Treat her well in the future!"

Fu Zhiyi said seriously, "Please rest assured, grandfather and father. Since we are married, we will naturally spend our lives together."

The old marquis nodded in satisfaction: "Alright! Grandfather is relieved! Today, my good granddaughter-in-law, for our Fu family, has shown great righteousness and cut off her relationship with us! As a grandfather, I know this and must reward her well!"
