The thought that her expectations might become reality made Lu Huan's heart pound with excitement.

However, she did not leave the room immediately, but instead went to the dressing table and sat down.

All the jewelry on the surface was "sold" to Gao Manting. Lu Huan picked out a light red silk scarf, wrapped it around her hair, and put on a pair of pink pearl earrings.

There were no other pieces of jewelry.

When He Niang entered the room, Lu Huan was sitting in front of the bronze mirror, carefully applying face cream.

It was traded from Tian Jiajia.

To avoid drawing attention, Lu Huan scooped out the cream and placed it in a regular face cream container.

As He Niang approached Lu Huan, she smelled the unique fragrance of the face cream and couldn't help but exclaim, "Master, which cosmetic shop's face cream are you using? It smells so good!"

"I didn't buy it in Yanjing City; I had someone get it from the south." Lu Huan turned around and asked casually, "What's the matter that you came all the way here to talk about it?"

He Niang glanced out the window subconsciously, then whispered in Lu Huan's ear, "Master, there's a commotion in the backyard again. It seems to be..."

She hesitated, feeling that revealing this would offend her employer's ears.

However, it must be said that Cai Die's fate is ultimately related to her employer.

"It seems to be a butterfly that climbed onto the second young master's bed and was caught red-handed by the second young mistress."

After speaking, He Niang felt her mouth was burning with embarrassment. She carefully watched Lu Huan's expression, afraid that her master would be angry.

The anxiety on her face was not too obvious.

Lu Huan chuckled, "Let her climb, that's Cai Die's skill."

"Isn't the boss angry?"

"What's there to be angry about?" Lu Huan retorted.

This left He Niang completely dumbfounded.

The landlord brought in the clan chief, and it was only with great difficulty that the wife finally decided to kick Cai Die out.

Now that Cai Die has climbed into the second young master's bed, she can at least become a concubine maid, no longer the kind of servant who can be easily dismissed.

The employer, however, seemed completely unconcerned. Did he not realize how serious the situation was?

He Niang immediately imagined a lot and tentatively voiced her guess.

Lu Huan's expression remained unchanged. "I know!"

"Oh dear! My master!" He Niang suddenly slapped her thigh and said with exasperation, "Why aren't you worried yet! If you can't kick Cai Die out, then your house will just be ruined for nothing!"

So that's what He Niang was worried about.

Lu Huan revealed a playful smile, "You forgot the medicine I asked you to add before?"

“That medicine…” A terrible thought surged into He Niang’s mind, “Master, you asked me to use that medicine, not so that the second young master would become obsessed with pleasure and lose his ambition?”

"Not bad, you even know the phrase 'indulging in frivolous pursuits leads to the loss of ambition'!"

He Niang was almost completely confused, and her face turned slightly red with anxiety. "Master, please stop playing riddles with me!"

Just then, Lu Ruyi's shouts suddenly came from outside, "Lu Huan! Lu Huan! Come out here! Come out now!"

He Niang blurted out instinctively, "Oh no, she's found out!"

Lu Huan glared at her and whispered a reminder: "You only add a tiny bit each time. The woman won't have any reaction to it, so how could she be found out!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" He Niang regained her senses and remembered what her master had said before.

The two walked out of the west wing together.

Lu Ruyi also arrived at the front yard, but with Le Song and Yu Lan following behind, she was unable to rush over.

"Lu Huan! What right do you have!" Lu Ruyi shouted, clenching her teeth tightly as if she could bite Lu Huan to death.

Lu Huan was completely bewildered by the question and pointed at Lu Ruyi, asking Le Song and the others, "What's going on with your young lady? Has she gone mad?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Yulan immediately retorted.

Le Song pursed his lips but didn't say a word.

Lu Huan wasn't necessarily looking for an answer. He waved his hand and said, "If there's nothing else, go back to your room and don't bark like a dog in front of my door!"

Perhaps a certain word touched a nerve with Lu Ruyi, because she shouted again, "Lu Huan! You're just an orphan, what makes you think you can win your husband's heart?"

Lu Huan chuckled and retorted, "What does this have to do with whether she's an orphan or not? Ayan was also picked up from outside. We cherish each other and exchange sincerity for sincerity. Why can't that be?"

Lu Huan deliberately emphasized the word "sincere".

It was a deliberate act of treachery against Lu Ruyi.

Lu Ruyi was also driven by envy and jealousy, which is why, after gaining the upper hand, she instigated Li to help her tamper with things and replace Gao Zhongbao with her husband.

Her current madness is simply because her husband isn't as good as she imagined.

If Gao Zhongbao were truly as perfect as he pretended to be in front of outsiders in his previous life, Lu Ruyi would definitely not be the way she is now.

It's just that things aren't going well, but who can guarantee that things will be perfect after a marriage exchange?

However, Lu Huan had no intention of saying this out loud.

But when Lu Ruyi heard these words, it was as if her tail had been stepped on and her sore spot had been hit.

"Lu Huan! What do you mean! How am I not sincere? Brother Zhongbao, I'm truly sincere towards you! How could you... hurt me like this!"

Lu Ruyi knew what she could say and what she couldn't say, and she really didn't say anything out of line.

Unable to reason with the person in question, Lu Huan could only remind Le Song and Yu Lan: "Although this courtyard is separated from the village by a small bamboo grove, the wind is strong right now. If it blows into Aunt Ba's ears and she comes looking for you, don't blame me for not warning you!"

After Le Song came to the Gao family, he got a pretty good grasp of the interpersonal relationships in the village and also knew that his eighth aunt, Wen, and Zhou had always been at odds.

If the Wen family really hears the commotion and comes over, their family scandal will be exposed, and it might even implicate their young lady.

After considering the pros and cons, Le Song whispered, "Miss, don't make a scene here. What's done is done, let's go back to our room!"

"Yes, Miss, it's so cold outside!" Yulan stamped her feet. Her feet were already freezing after standing outside for just a short while.

While she was verbally persuading him, she was secretly wondering when she could go back to the Lu family. Seeing that erotic scene made her miss her husband.

After being persuaded by the two, Lu Ruyi's attitude softened, and with the help of Le Song and Yu Lan, she turned and walked towards the backyard.

Unexpectedly, Lu Huan had no intention of letting Lu Ruyi off the hook. He muttered in a voice that everyone could hear, "What a nutcase! What's the point of telling me all this? I can't keep Gao Zhongbao completely devoted to me!"

Le Song and Yu Lan's hearts skipped a beat at the same time, and they couldn't help but increase the pressure on their hands.

"Miss, let's go back quickly!"

"Don't forget, that little vixen Cai Die's indenture is still in your hands!"

Where Lu Huan couldn't see, a sinister glint flashed in Lu Ruyi's eyes.
