Chapter 67: Forcing Zhou Fang to Apologize and Hand Over Power

Zhou Fang frowned and said angrily: "You!"

"You're such a shrew!"

Yuan Wanru smiled very comfortably: "A shrew is better than you. You are despicable and shameless, with ulterior motives. How dare you speak nonsense in front of me?"

"Second Aunt, I want you to compensate me with three thousand taels of silver, hand over the kitchen purchasing responsibilities, and promise not to get involved in housekeeping matters again. Otherwise, I will make your conspiracy against me known to everyone."

"I guess, since you love your second brother the most, you must have already found someone who would be your wife. The other party must be from a good family. If they knew you were this kind of person, would they still be willing to marry you?"

Zhou Fang was so angry that her face turned green.

This really hits her sore spot.

Who are the people in Deyang Marquis' Mansion? If they heard about these things, how could they be willing to let the third daughter of the legitimate wife marry into their family?

"Old Madam, you love Jiang Xun the most. Are you just going to watch Yuan Shi abuse him like this?"

Wang Min, who hadn't spoken for a long time, sneered, "You're allowed to scheme against my son and daughter-in-law, but others aren't allowed to scheme against you?"

"If you truly love Jiang Xun, you should spend money to avoid disaster. You can't be too greedy, wanting benefits but not wanting to spend money."

Wang Min looked at Madam Lu, who was unhappy, and said in a very resolute tone: "If Madam Lu insists on favoring my second brother's wife, then why not split up the family? If she dares to reach out to Lingshuiju today, she will dare to reach out to my Wangchuntang tomorrow."

"It's hard to guard against thieves in your own home, even if you're on guard day and night. I don't want to live in fear day and night."

"If the Marquis doesn't agree, then I will take Jiang Nian and his wife out of the house to save them from being plotted against again."

Lu Jiangnian was unequivocal and immediately stated his position: "I think the house on Baima Street is good. It's not far from the court. If you don't mind, you can live there. I will naturally come with you."

The house on Baima Street has returned to Yuan Wanru.

If the mother and son followed him and the news got out, the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion would be disgraced.

Yuan Wanru nodded with a smile: "Why don't we move out tonight? Who knows if Second Aunt has other spies in Lingshuiju? I don't want to live under other people's noses."

"All right."

The three of them sang in unison, as if the Marquis's Mansion had no room for them.

The wife of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery was forced to leave the house by her brother's wife, and Zhou Fang's reputation was completely ruined, and Lu Jiangxiun's future would also be difficult.

Although Mrs. Lu was extremely angry, the person who was wrong was Zhou Fang, and she had no way to shut the eldest wife's mouth.

Even if Lu Song were here, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to persuade his wife and children.

Madam Lu took a deep breath and gave Zhou Fang an order: "Stop talking nonsense and do what Yuan Shi asked you to do. It's your fault for making the mistake first."

Old Madam Lu spoke in a bad tone, staring at Yuan Wanru with her small eyes, her face showing complete disgust.

"Madam, are you satisfied?"

Yuan Wanru looked at her sincerely: "Is the old lady angry?"

"Books often say, 'Everyone makes mistakes, but if you can correct them, there is nothing better than that.'"

"If I hadn't discovered these things today, Second Aunt wouldn't have known she was wrong. Old Madam, because of her theft today, she implicated the spy Shanzha. She might cause even greater trouble in the future."

"I made her realize her mistake, she should thank me. If Second Aunt knew any etiquette, she should give me an extra thank you gift."

Zhou Fang couldn't catch her breath and almost fainted.

Does this person have any shame? He asked for three thousand taels and even dared to ask for a thank-you gift.

Yuan Wanru tutted her words, "However, we are all family, so no thank you gift is needed. Second Aunt will immediately present the pair of cards and three thousand taels, and you can take Xi Que back with you."

Xi Que didn't dare to think about what would happen to her if she fell into the hands of the Second Madam. She knelt down and wanted to pull Yuan Wanru's skirt, but was stopped by Lu Jiangnian.

"My wife has done what she promised you. If you dare to bother her, I will send you to the Dali Temple immediately."

Xi Que is not innocent. Zhou Fang gave the order, but didn’t she do it?

Lu Jiangnian never tolerates those who make mistakes.

What else did Zhou Fang not understand? On one hand, he was handing over money and power, and on the other hand, he was handing over people.

"Who knows if you will keep your promise."

"What if I promise you and you regret it later and spread rumors about me? Wouldn't that be a huge loss for me?"

Lu Jiangnian sneered, "Second Aunt, don't worry. My wife will do what she says. If she can't, I will pay you back four thousand taels."

Yuan Wanru glanced at him and did not refute him.

Anyway, she didn't intend to go out and talk nonsense.

Although Zhou Fang had wronged her, Lu Bai and Lu Jiangxiun had no grudge against her.

Those words that destroyed Lu Jiangxiun's marriage were nothing but bluffs and threats to Zhou Fang.

However, Zhou Fang had no feelings for the first wife.

Then, she naturally would not believe in the friendship between Yuan Wanru and Lu Jiangnian.

What else could Zhou Fang do? She just wanted to get this over with as soon as possible. "I'll give you the cards and the silver. You're not allowed to reveal a single word, let alone let the Second Master and Jiang Xun know."

Yuan Wanru held the three thousand taels of silver in her hand and smiled contentedly: "Of course we won't tell anyone. If Miss Liang and the old lady tell anyone, then we can't be blamed."

Zhou Fang immediately looked at Liang Yusong with disgust. As an outsider, why was she meddling in the Lu family's affairs?

Liang Yusong gritted her teeth secretly, angry that Yuan Wanru insisted on mentioning her name: "Second Madam, don't worry, I will keep my mouth shut."

She pretended to be casual and said, "Since Xi Que was acting according to orders and she also explained clearly why she came into contact with Shanzha, then her suspicion is basically cleared."

She pointed at Shanzha and said, "It was Shanzha who stole the defense map. Miss Yuan, how did she get such an important thing? Will this matter involve you?"

Madam Lu thought this made a lot of sense: "Yuan Shi, she lives in your house. Do you know the origin of this hawthorn?"

After she finished speaking, she looked at Lu Jiangnian gravely: "If Yuan Shi can't explain clearly, Jiangnian, you must divorce her immediately. Our Zhongyong Marquis Mansion must not have anything to do with spies."

Zhou Fang immediately perked up. Why hadn't she thought of this?

Magpie belongs to her, and Hawthorn also belongs to Yuan Wanru.

Xi Que is a family boy with a clean family background. The hawthorn was bought from outside by Wang Min a few years ago. It can be said that Wang Min invited a wolf into the house.

She should have turned around and blackmailed Yuan Wanru.

"Yes, Yuan Wanru, you still have the nerve to ask me for money? Return the three thousand taels to me quickly, or I will shout everywhere and accuse you of harboring a spy."

Wang Min angrily rebuked him, "You're completely crazy! How can you publicize the activities of a spy?"

Yuan Wanru suddenly burst into laughter: "Mother, don't worry, there is no spy at all, just go and tell Second Aunt, she won't dare to say anything."

Lu Jiangnian looked at her dotingly: "If you reveal the truth now, I'm afraid Second Aunt will pounce on you and bite you."

She looked at him with sparkling eyes: "Did you guess it?"

"Ah."

Lu Jiangnian looked at Wang Min and the others and spoke slowly and clearly, "Because there was no defense map in the first place."
