Chapter 5 Provocation
Chapter 5
Lv Songli didn't think there was anything to talk about. It was obvious that Zhao Yutan wanted the Xie family to be responsible. The Xie family didn't know whether they really minded what happened last night and had some complaints about her, the daughter-in-law who had not yet married into the family. There might also be some other reasons. In short, the Xie family had the idea of canceling the engagement. And the Xie and Zhao families might have reached some consensus.
This is not in the original book, right? Lu Songli looked at Xie Zhan thoughtfully. Xie Zhan noticed her gaze and looked at her calmly.
She guessed that the incident last night when the original owner and Zhao Yutan fell into the water while admiring the night lily at the Prince Gong's Mansion but were rescued by each other's fiancé should not have happened in the book. Otherwise, the marriage between the male protagonist, the female protagonist and the female supporting role had such a big twist and turn, and the marriage was about to be cancelled. How could the little cousin not mention it? This is not like the style of the little cousin.
What Lu Songli didn't know was that all this happened for a reason. Everything was because Zhao Yutan had a prophetic dream a few days ago. In the dream, the two girls got married smoothly. She married into the Qin family and Lu Songli married into the Xie family. Not long after she married, the Qin family was convicted and exiled. On the way to exile, many people in her husband's family died. She suffered a lot during the exile. But the Xie family's door lintel has always stood firm. Even though Lu Songli had no children in the dream, the Xie family still let her sit firmly in the position of Mrs. Xie. After waking up, she was in a mess and decided to take a different path this time and never go back to the old path!
And Zhao Yutan herself didn't know that she only dreamed half of the dream. She didn't dream about the second half at all, so she didn't know that her original husband's family was the final winner.
Lu Songli thought, if this is a change, then it's interesting. She knows how powerful the butterfly effect is, and now everything has become uncontrollable. But she has a strong intuition that Xie Zhan and Zhao Yutan should get together in advance. Because she believed that there was always an inexplicable attraction between a scumbag and a bitch.
At this point in the conversation, Madam Xie was not very satisfied, because the current progress was far from the result she wanted, but she couldn't force it too much. After all, the attitude of the Lu family had been tested, and as expected, they were very resistant to the cancellation of the engagement.
Madam Xie didn't want to stay here anymore, she glanced at her son.
At this time, Chen, the housekeeper of their Lu Mansion, hurried in with two middle-aged men.
"What's the matter?" Lu Desheng asked.
"Master, it's the housekeeper of the Xie family who said that there is an urgent matter to find Madam Xie and Mr. Xie."
Madam Xie looked at the middle-aged man in Chu's clothes next to her housekeeper in confusion.
When Xie Zhan's eyes touched the two people, he paused slightly, thought for a moment, and said to the Lu family, "Since the family is here to look for you, there may be an emergency at home, so uncle and aunt A Li, my mother and I will take our leave first, and come to bother you next time."
"Go back." Lu Desheng waved his hand.
Although the conversation between the two families was not very pleasant, when Lu's father and mother saw that the manager of the Xie Mansion had come, they could understand the eagerness of the mother and son of the Xie family to go home immediately without asking what happened. The reason why they didn't ask was because it was a family matter and it was inconvenient to mention it outside, which was quite normal.
"Wait!" Lu Songli stopped the person, staring at the middle-aged man in Chu Yi.
Xie Zhan looked back and saw her reaction. He moved his feet slightly, just blocking her sight of the middle-aged man in Chu Yi, "A Li, is there anything else?"
"The uncle on the left, isn't he the manager of your Xie Mansion?" Lu Songli said with a smile.
The original owner was good friends with Zhao Yutan, and he often invited her to his home, so she was familiar with the people in the Zhao Mansion. As soon as the middle-aged man in Chu Yi appeared, she felt familiar. Besides, if the Xie family had an emergency and sent someone to call Xie Zhan and his mother, they would not send two stewards at the same time.
When Lu Songli called the person, Lu Desheng and his wife also reacted to this. Yes, they were also puzzled just now, but they didn't think so much. Of course, it's okay for the steward to bring a runner, but the age of this man in Chu Yi doesn't look like a runner.
Xie Zhan felt a headache when he met Lu Songli's eyes. At the same time, he was also wondering, when did his fiancée become so sharp? Hasn't she always been timid and quiet? And she spoke very aggressively, like a knife, which made people very uncomfortable.
At this time, Mrs. Xie also realized that something was wrong.
"What's going on?" Lv Desheng narrowed his eyes and looked at the middle-aged man in Chu's clothes.
Before Xie Zhan could respond, the middle-aged man in Chu's clothes knelt down in the direction of Xie Zhan and Mrs. Xie, begging, "Mr. Xie, please go see our eldest lady. Our young lady just committed suicide, woo woo..."
Hearing this, Lv Desheng stood up, "Are you from the Zhao Mansion?"
"You said Zhao Yutan committed suicide? Is he dead?" Jiang asked directly.
Lv Songli had expected it, and even after hearing this, she sat on the chair calmly.
The middle-aged man in Chu's clothes said dissatisfiedly, "Mrs. Lu, why are you so vicious? Your Lu family is looking forward to my eldest lady getting into trouble, right?!"
Pa! Lv Songli took a step forward and slapped the man directly, "How dare you! Who gave you the courage to come to my Lu family and act wild?!"
The scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone was stunned by her domineering behavior. Even the middle-aged man who was beaten was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, he immediately looked at Lu Songli fiercely.
Lu Desheng stepped forward and kicked the man down, "Someone come!"
There was so much noise in the hall that servants were waiting at the door. Now that the master gave the order, they immediately stepped forward to restrain the person.
Xie Zhan had a headache instantly.
Mrs. Lu Jiang was the first to come to her senses, calmed down, and asked the middle-aged man, "Just tell me whether she is dead or not?!"
Lu Songli said in her heart, mother, she must not be dead. But she didn't expect the Zhao family to be so shameless that they actually danced in front of her, the legitimate fiancée.
The middle-aged man didn't want to answer.
"Is Zhao Yutan okay?" This person didn't get to the point, and Mrs. Xie was impatient.
The middle-aged man lowered his head and replied, "Fortunately, it was discovered early, the person was rescued, and a doctor was called, but the person has not woken up yet. The doctor said that the eldest lady was desperate and wanted to die. The situation is very critical. Our master and his wife want to ask Mr. Xie to go over to see our eldest lady, maybe..."
Bang! A cup was thrown directly at the middle-aged man, but he turned his head to avoid it, and it only grazed his scalp, then fell to the ground and broke.
After smashing the cup, Lu Desheng pointed at the door and said to the outsiders, "The Zhao family is too much! Get out, all of you get out!"
Xie Zhan sighed and said, "Uncle and aunt, we will say goodbye first. Mother, let's go."
Madam Xie moved her mouth, then sighed and took the lead to walk out.
The Lu family turned a blind eye to this, and even the steward Chen went to see the guests off.
In short, this meeting was very unpleasant, and both sides left unhappily.
