The Story of a Destitute Noblewoman Farming
Chapter 4 Return
"Do you still want to cancel the engagement today? If so, then do as she says. I've heard about this cancellation of the engagement. It was Young Master Fang who said it himself at the banquet."
The prefect also spoke at this time, confirming the matter.
"Withdraw, we withdraw the engagement. You are disobedient to the elders, unfilial and unbrotherly, without any trace of chastity and beauty. We don't like women who are aggressive and aggressive."
Originally, they thought that Lu Linlang was still the timid and cowardly person as before, and would not dare to curse loudly like she did now, and spread such things that were disadvantageous to her, so she dared to come and cancel the engagement.
But who knew what had happened to her that she had become so aggressive and even spread the news, bringing shame to their family. Madam Fang was like swallowing a fly. Since she was already here, she had to cancel the marriage today.
"I didn't realize that Madam Fang had such a clear understanding of herself. It just so happens that I also deeply despise the ungrateful and heartless people in your family."
After the two parties had expressed their disdain for each other, a letter of withdrawal of engagement was written by Fang Shilun. Both parties and witnesses signed and stamped the letter in triplicate, and the other party's engagement letter was returned. Lu Linlang tore up the marriage certificate in front of everyone.
"From now on, we will go our separate ways. You walk your single-plank bridge, and I walk mine." Lu Linlang said this, drove the two away, and kept the prefect.
The people who watched the whole process said that this didn't seem satisfying at all. The girl from the Lu family was too soft-hearted. How could she let this family off so easily? If they did, it would be impossible for them not to break up with them and beat them up.
As soon as the door was closed, Lu Linlang began to plan her next act of revenge in her mind, but at this moment she pretended to look pitiful on her face.
"Sir, please stay. We really need your help with something. Since my father passed away, I don't know who I can trust. The only one I can trust is you."
"Miss Lu, what do you want me to do for you? The Fang family is indeed not a good family. Now that you are a free person, if you want me to help you find a husband, I can ask my family to help you."
When the prefect heard her say this, he thought she wanted to choose another husband. Although she had broken off the engagement and some families would care about their reputation, he would still help as long as her requirements for choosing a husband were not too high.
"My Lord, I have no intention of getting married now. What I have to face now is how to ensure the safety of my brothers.
My father's title of Earl of Loyalty and Bravery is not hereditary. It would be illegal for our family to occupy this house, and my brother made such a big mistake yesterday.
So after discussing it, my sister and I decided to return the house to the emperor to make up for the mistake my brother made.
We are also preparing to pack up and return to our hometown to live. We still have relatives there. We need your help in petitioning the Emperor to return the house."
"What? You actually want to go back to your hometown and return this house to the emperor?" Even though the prefect racked his brains, he didn't expect that they would have such foresight.
The capital city is a place that many people yearn for, but they just leave without saying goodbye. It’s good that they have the protection of their clansmen, which is better than having no relatives in the capital city and being surrounded by powerful people.
"Yes, sir, we have already broken off the engagement with the Fang family. Judging from the situation today, I'm afraid we will be enemies in the future. If we don't leave, my brothers and I don't know what kind of revenge we will face. It's better to leave early and not be in front of them."
"Don't worry, if the Fang family dares to cause trouble, I will naturally keep an eye on them. I will also help you spread the word about what happened today. The Fang family has indeed gone too far."
"Thank you, sir. I'll trouble you then."
After seeing off the prefect, Lu Linlang asked her brothers to pack up their things quickly and leave after the emperor took back the house deeds.
After leaving, the other family's revenge will truly begin.
Lu Linlang originally thought that Lu Zhan had squandered all the family property, but after taking inventory, she found that the dowry her parents had saved for her was still there, and the other property had been almost spent over the years. The original owner was not good at housekeeping.
This kid Lu Zhan still has some conscience and didn't lose everything.
It was obvious that King Rui was not someone to be trifled with. What Lu Zhan lost was basically cash, in addition to the house deeds. Lu Zhan had previously come to find his original body, saying that he wanted to see the house deeds at home.
The original body did not guard against this younger brother, allowing him to take the opportunity to get the house deed and even dare to take it to the gambling house.
"Sister, I was wrong. I was so confused at the time that I listened to other people's instructions. It almost caused our family to suffer. Now, because of me, I have to go back to my hometown."
Lu Zhan felt very guilty when he saw his sister sorting out the household belongings.
"The best way to apologize is to be more careful in the future. After this incident, you should also realize that not all people around you are good people. In the future, you should be more careful and don't trust everyone.
Xing'er, just do as I say and find someone to exchange these furniture and other things that cannot be taken away for cash.
You guys go back to your room and pack up first. If you have any ideas, we can discuss them on the way. With the help of the prefect, I believe we will have news about the return of the house tomorrow."
Looking at everyone busying themselves, Lu Linlang gave direct instructions.
Xing'er returned soon. She had found a pawnshop and the pawnshop staff would come to appraise the value the next day. Apart from the dowry such as jewelry, gold, silver, and cloth, there was nothing else to pack at home, so everything was almost packed.
Lu Linlang prepared dinner tonight. Although Xing'er is a maid in the mansion, her family has no status now, and she will be a commoner in the future.
Xing'er had been busy running around all day, and Lu Linlang had no reason to let her continue cooking dinner.
"Come on, come and have a meal. After dinner, take a good rest. We will leave after tomorrow."
"How come this dish is so delicious? It smells so good." Yun Can is a few months younger than Lu Zhan. He was already hungry. Seeing his sisters and brothers picking up some dishes, he quickly followed suit and started eating. After the first bite, he felt that the taste of this dish was different from before.
"Yes, this dish is so delicious, Sister Xing'er, when did your cooking skills become so good?" Lu Zhan, who was originally absent-minded, took a bite and said in surprise.
"Master, the eldest lady prepared today's dinner. I didn't even have the chance to cook. When the eldest lady was cooking, I could smell the fragrance."
Just now, when the eldest lady was cooking, Xing'er had already started praising her, and said that with such talent, the eldest lady would definitely find a good husband in the future.
"Sister, you, your cooking skills are really great." Lu Zhan ate the dishes with big mouthfuls. It had only been two days, and the person he admired most was his sister.
Could it be that because of the stimulation from the Fang family and his gambling, my sister not only changed her personality drastically, but also acquired a natural talent for cooking?
"I just made some stir-fried dishes. I'll make them for you after we get back home and settle down. Xing'er, you can go downstairs and have dinner too."
They were all teenagers. The world was big, and eating was the most important thing to them. They didn't feel reluctant to leave the capital anymore.
