"Oh my god, young master Fu Qing jumped!"

"Why are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and rescue young master Fu Qing!" However, immediately afterwards, Brother Dong's arrogant voice broke in: "No one is allowed to move, and no one is allowed to go down to rescue him, otherwise You all come together and take a dip in the water!"

Mrs. Lu frowned tightly, and the expression on her face began to become a little uncertain.

As soon as she heard Fu Qing's name, Lu Lianzhi subconsciously looked at Dou Lianyi.

Originally, she thought she would see a trace of worry or panic on Dou Lianyi's face, but to her surprise, she only saw her looking at the lake calmly.

There is even a feeling that the victory is certain.

Lu Lianzhi couldn't help but feel suspicious. Before she could look away, Dou Lianyi had already turned her head, looked at the corners of her mouth raised, smiled slightly, and said confidently: "Sister-in-law, you don't need to worry so much, Fu Qingshui is pretty good. A little water depth is not a problem for him.”

Soon, as if in answer to her words, Fu Qing swam up from the lake and took the maid who had fallen into the water with him.

"Mom, little sister, let's go over together and see what's going on."

Dou Lianyi had enough time to wait until now, and then slowly spoke up and suggested.

"Don't let the two children see us," Madam Lu said with a complicated expression on her face, wrapped in a cloak, "I would like to see how these two children get along when we adults are not around."

These words hit Dou Lianyi's heart. She helped Mrs. Lu take a few steps forward, and there happened to be an osmanthus tree in front of them blocking their figure.

Lu Lianzhi originally wanted to secretly hint to a servant to warn Brother Dong not to go too far, but Dou Lianyi saw through her intention.

Dou Lianyi curled up the corners of her mouth and extended her hand to Lu Lianzhi with an innocent look on her face.

"Sister-in-law, come closer so you don't get discovered."

After saying that, Dou Lianyi pulled her towards him.

"You! What are you doing!"

"Didn't Mom say that? Don't let the children see us coming."

Seeing Dou Lianyi's pretending to be innocent, Lu Lianzhi couldn't help but feel angry, but because Mrs. Lu couldn't have an attack in the presence of Mrs. Lu, she could only force herself not to show any dissatisfaction.

As a result, not long after, the voices of Dong Geer and Fu Qing arguing could be faintly heard.

"What do I mean by you kid? Are you here to confront me on purpose?"

"Brother Dong, you misunderstood me. I didn't mean it."

Fu Qing blocked the maid who fell into the water behind him, bowed his head slightly and responded.

"Then why do you have to rescue her in front of so many servants even after I told people not to rescue this wretch? Aren't you just openly confronting me and not giving me face?"

Brother Dong pointed at Fu Qing's nose angrily and scolded.Seeing this, Fu Qing frowned, but responded in an unassuming manner: "If you keep soaking in the lake in such a cold weather, you will get sick."

"Get ill?"

Brother Dong sneered and said nonchalantly: "Don't say she was sick. Even if she died in front of me, it would be nothing more than a bad life. I can't even ask someone to collect her body!"

Fu Qing clearly felt the maid behind him tremble. He didn't know whether she was frozen or frightened by Brother Dong's cruel words.

He clenched his fists and finally endured it. He softened his posture and begged: "Brother Dong, can you please let her go for my sake?"

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Fu Qing didn't want to start a dispute with Brother Dong, but Brother Dong refused to let go.

He even said arrogantly: "Who do you think you are? Do you have any dignity in front of me? Remember, you are just an orphan who was picked up, without a father or a mother. If you hadn't seen In my mother’s eyes, your status here is worse than that of a dog!”

Hearing this, Lu Lianzhi's face began to show a little despair.

She not only hated Li Ke for not doing things well, but also hated herself for choosing the wrong time, which made Brother Dong completely lose her favor in front of the old lady.

Even if Dong Ge'er is the eldest grandson of the county prince's palace, if this continues, the old lady will most likely let her brother and the bitch Dou Lianyi have another child to replace Dong Ge'er!
Thinking of this, Lu Lianzhi couldn't bear it anymore. Before she could take a step, Dou Lianyi, who had been staring at her closely, grabbed her arm.

"Sister, what are you going to do? My mother is still here, and she hasn't said anything yet, and you want to go there directly?"

Seeing that Dou Lianyi looked like he was watching a good show, Lu Lianzhi suddenly became furious.

Not caring that Mrs. Lu was still beside her, she pointed at Dou Lianyi fiercely and asked, "Brother Dong is the child you adopted. If you don't care about what he is doing now, is it because you want to cultivate that child?" Can an orphan become the heir to the county palace? Sister-in-law, you are so ambitious!"

However, Dou Lianyi's expression did not change at all. Instead, he asked with a puzzled look: "Strange, isn't Brother Dong also an orphan? He is also an adopted child. How could you say such a thing, sister-in-law?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Lu and Lu Lianzhi suddenly felt guilty. They glanced at each other subconsciously, and then hurriedly looked away.

Mrs. Lu let out a long sigh. Seeing that Brother Dong was her son's only bloodline, no matter how disappointed she was, she still spoke up to help cover up.

"Okay, Lianyi, don't say that. Maybe Lian'er and Brother Dong are more destined, just like you will be closer to Fu Qing's child."

"That's it," Dou Lianyi nodded, and responded with a chuckle as if he suddenly realized something: "Let me just say, originally I was wondering if this brother Dong was my sister-in-law's child. After all, my sister-in-law would do it every day. They came here to see Brother Dong and stayed there all day long, so I didn’t even dare to disturb them."

"What are you talking about!"

Lu Lianzhi was so shocked by Dou Lianyi's seemingly joking words that her heart skipped a beat. She realized that she was overreacting and hurriedly denied: "Brother Dong is just destined to be with me. How could he be my child?" Besides, if it was really my child, how could I let him call my sister-in-law my mother?"

"Hey, it turns out that Brother Dong's life experience is so pitiful. Originally, Lianyi thought that his sister-in-law came to accompany him every day. Maybe it's because my sister-in-law hasn't given birth to a child yet and doesn't know how to educate her well..."

Dou Lianyi glanced at Lu Lianzhi, hesitated to speak, and finally shook his head, turned to look at Mrs. Lu and said seriously: "Mom, don't worry, it was Lianyi who didn't know the reason before, and he will definitely treat Brother Dong more kindly in the future. Son, please don’t worry, mother.”
