Confiscating property? A stunningly beautiful substitute bride empties the national treasury and is

"No...you're not. The Song Qingqian of the past was just an ordinary woman in her boudoir. She wouldn't..."

Lu Jingchuan didn't finish his sentence.

Song Qingqian spoke directly: "Won't you know what? Won't you be as ruthless and cunning as me? Or won't you be as aggressive as me?"

"Lu Jingchuan, you can back out anytime if you want. I dislike forcing others the most."

No, that's not what I meant!

Lu Jingchuan patiently explained, "It's because I feel I'm not good enough for you."

"If you're scared, then you're scared. Don't talk about whether you're good enough or not. Lu Jingchuan, we've been fake from beginning to end, so how could there be any sincerity?"

"Third brother's wife, don't be angry. I know you were just saying that out of anger. This third brother is just too cautious."

Bai came up and helped her up, saying kindly, "Sister-in-law, don't believe what they said. I only know that you are a good person and kind-hearted. If it weren't for you, our family would have collapsed long ago."

"No matter what they say, your sister-in-law will accept you; you're right!"

"Third Aunt, you are so majestic! Zhan'er likes you too!"

"Third Aunt, Yu'er likes you too. You are a good person. You chased away the bad guys."

"Third Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, we shouldn't have doubted you!"

The two Lu sisters hugged Song Qingqian and said emotionally, "Third sister-in-law, it's so good to have you here. They will never dare to look down on us again. You are our support."

The old lady quickly wiped away her tears, glared angrily at Lu Jingchuan, and then explained:

"Third son's wife, your mother-in-law still says the same thing: it doesn't matter whether you like the third son or not. From now on, you are my daughter-in-law. If you divorce him, you will be my own daughter!"

Song Qingqian nodded, touched. Whether it was genuine or not, the fact that someone recognized her made her feel that all this journey had been worthwhile.

As for men, they are dispensable; in her heart, they will always be just supporting characters.

"Thank you, mother-in-law; thank you, sister-in-law; and thank you all..."

"Silly child, don't thank me, we're all family!"

The old lady tenderly touched her cheek. She had given birth to three daughters, and the Imperial Concubine had always been her pride. She had devoted herself to protecting the Lu family until her death.

Now, she actually saw the shadow of the Imperial Concubine in Song Qingqian. In the end, if she hadn't entered the palace, would she have died so tragically at such a young age, ultimately separated from her family?

However, the imperial decree was difficult to disobey at the time, and the Lu family had no choice but to reluctantly part with their beloved daughter, thus wronging their eldest daughter.

As the old lady pondered, she thought of the eldest son of the He family, the childhood sweetheart of her eldest daughter, a talented young man who went to war after his eldest daughter entered the palace and eventually died far from home…

Lu Yunqi kept his head down the whole time, seemingly lost in thought...

At this moment, Lu Jingchuan lowered his head in embarrassment. In the end, Song Qingqian had always been open and honest since she married into the family, so it was his fault for being too suspicious.

A gust of cold wind swept by, and Song Qingqian couldn't help but shiver as she looked at everyone. She spoke up to remind them:

"It's a bit cold outside, so let's all rest in the carriages. It's warm inside. The caravan shouldn't be moving today."

"Okay, let's go up together!"

At this moment, the two Lu sisters shook the cloth bag in their hands and laughed happily: "There are a full twenty taels, sister-in-law, we have silver!"

"Um"

Song Qingqian nodded. Exiles could only afford a small amount of silver; it was just a token gesture, and they couldn't be given it away for nothing.

Moreover, she had just taken the opportunity to check, and the smart cooking tool on the Duopindou system she used today had completely failed due to exhaustion, and the screen had gone gray and stopped working.

Is this thing limited in quantity each time? Well, I guess I can't rely too much on this Perler bean system after all. I still have to earn my own living. Who knows when I'll be able to use it again!

Unseen by them, a heavily injured man smiled and quietly left. He, Xuan Yuanjing, would remember this extraordinary woman; once he reclaimed what was rightfully his, he would definitely take her away.

As for that so-called man, Xuanyuan Jing felt he was not worth mentioning at all!

"Wang, what are you going to do? Can't you see that even the soldiers are hiding as far away as possible?"

Shen grabbed Wang's arm with one hand, trying to persuade her.

"Wang Beimu, aren't you going to do anything about your wife?!"

Wang flung her sleeve away and sneered, "What are you afraid of? Did that young lady Lu rip out your heart or eat your flesh?"

"No, look how ruthless she was just now, we'd better avoid her!"

Wang Beimu said, "Is that what you call ruthless? You haven't seen the jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards on the mountain."

"Besides, this young lady Lu is just teaching these unreasonable soldiers a lesson. She hasn't harmed us, so what's there to be afraid of!"

Wang Beimu looked down at his son in his arms and scolded, "Wang Ziwang, are you afraid?"

The little boy immediately raised his head: "Don't be afraid, little one!"

"If you're not afraid, go with your mother to see her. Your father thinks this Miss Lu is a good person!"

"it is good!"

Wang gave Shen a disdainful look, then led her son away.

She had only gone halfway when Huo's eldest son's wife hurriedly called her back.

"Are you going to find Lady Lu? Let's go together!"

Mrs. Huo stood up, holding her youngest daughter, and led her son forward, speaking with a heavy heart:

"My two children are all thanks to Madam Lu, otherwise I wouldn't be able to survive either."

"Ah, who can disagree? Miss Lu is such a good person."

"These days, good people are bullied by bad people, so we must unite!"

"Uh-huh!"

Mrs. Huo quickly nodded. To be honest, her mother-in-law had thought it over and over again and still didn't want her to come, but one must have a conscience. Besides, with her husband's support, she wasn't afraid.

The two arrived together at the Lu family's carriage and saw only Lu Jingchuan standing to one side with a dark face and a cane.

Wang sighed and said, "General, if I may say something, I think that the worse a person treats his wife, the less followers he will have. You have achieved great military exploits, so you must understand this principle, right?"

"Besides, this Miss Lu is so capable and kind-hearted. If you don't cherish her, there are plenty of men who want to marry her. Don't let yourself be blinded!"

Although Lu Jingchuan was speechless, he still nodded silently. In terms of beauty, Song Qingqian was second to none; in terms of talent, no man could match her…

Madam Wang chuckled and said, "That's right. My Bei Mu doesn't have a brother. Otherwise, I would have him pursue Miss Lu. A wife like that is hard to find even with a lantern."

Just as Lu Jingchuan was about to retort, Wang Shi smiled and spoke to the carriage, "Is Miss Lu here?"

"Why have you two ladies come over?"

Song Qingqian jumped off the carriage, greeted them with a smile, and gave each of the three children a piece of candy.

"Of course we're here to thank you!"

Madam Wang chuckled and said directly, "I don't believe what others say. I only know that you, Miss Lu, are a wonderful person."

"I also came over to ask if there's anything we can help with. My husband is a rough and tough guy, but he can do any kind of heavy or tiring work."

"Auntie, no need!"

"Then...then I'll sew clothes or blankets for the children. I sewed all the clothes for my youngest child myself before he was born, and they were so comfortable to wear."

“Your sister-in-law is heavily pregnant and about to give birth, so having more people will speed things up.”

Wang spoke frankly and directly, saying she felt she could do the job!
