The mistress of the Hou family went crazy after doting on concubines and killing their wives.

Chapter 113 Concubine’s Tea Serving
Lu Wan returned to Yuyi Pavilion and lay in the medicinal bath soup specially prepared for her by Xi Yan. The fatigue all over her body seemed to overflow from the pores of her skin, and her whole body felt relaxed and comfortable.

"What kind of medicine is this? I've never smelled it." Lu Wan squinted her eyes and felt so comfortable that her pores opened.

Xi Yan rubbed her arm gently: "It's the prescription that Doctor Bu sent in. It's said that the weather has been cold recently, so the girl needs to soak for two quarters of an hour every other day. In addition, she also gave her ten medicine bags for her to take before going to bed. Applying hot compress to the lower abdomen is said to be helpful for children.”

Heir?

She didn't want to think about it anymore.

"Doctor Bu? Is she still in the capital?" Lu Wan opened her eyes.

"Yes, I'm here. She said she has arranged for a disciple to come to the house in the next few days, and he will follow the girl from now on."

"Ah? Then you have to ask Dongqing how much money to give Doctor Bu, but you can't treat her badly."

"Okay, tomorrow I will send someone out of the house to ask Dongqing."

Lu Wan was lying on the bed, her body's fatigue faded, but her mind was awake.

She sat up suddenly: "At dawn, let's go out tomorrow after Meng Ruyi serves tea."

Dawn poked her head in: "Where are you going?"

"Go to Zhuangzi and interrogate Aunt He."

Dawn frowned: "Master Yan asked you not to leave the house for the next few days, for fear that the Xie family might cause trouble."

"When did he say that?" Lu Wan wondered.

Dawn hesitated: "Yes, I sent someone to tell me when the girl was taking a bath."

"Qing Ming?"

"...Hmm." Ming Xiao felt a little unnatural.

"The two of them were muttering at the side door for a long time." Zhiruo opened the bead curtain and walked in, squinting at Mingming.

"You're talking nonsense, we just said a few words." Mingxiao became nervous.

Zhiruo snorted: "Shuyu has seen with her own eyes that she is the most honest and never lies."

"How could she get to the side door at that hour?" Mingxiao didn't believe it.

"She Xiumu went home today. Didn't she just pass by when she returned home?"

"Big girl..." Liming Xiao was afraid that Lu Wan would misunderstand.

"How did you get in touch with Qing Ming?" Lu Wan's face remained as usual, without any blame.

Dawn was so nervous that she clasped her hands: "Yes... Qing Ming said that Master Yan asked him to protect the girl, and if something big happened, he would notify him immediately, and he would immediately transfer people. Therefore, information would be exchanged at the side door every day. He just Concerned about the actual safety of the girl, really.”

"It's okay. Master Yan is one of our own, and he protects me for my own good. But you don't have to hide it from me." Lu Wan's tone was gentle, but Mingxiao still felt a little bit in her heart.

At dawn, she quickly lifted up her skirt and knelt down: "Miss, every day at the beginning of the year, he knocks three times outside the side door, and I answer three times to prove that everything is fine. We have never met. Today it is he who brought the message from Master Yan. Say a few words to him. Big girl, I know you shouldn’t hide anything from the big girl..."

Before she finished speaking, Lu Wan had already lifted the quilt and got out of bed and pulled her up.

"Lingxiao, you are different from other maids. I trust you, you don't have to kneel."

Mingxiao's eyes were slightly red: "It's my fault."

Lu Wan pulled her to the bedside and pushed her to sit down: "I have said many times, you are not a slave to begin with, you are also a general, but the daughter of a dignified sixth-grade military attache does not need to be called a slave in front of me. Remember what I said, you can be happy if you want to follow me. If you want to leave, you can do it at any time. Like Zhiruo and others, if someone you like tells me, I will give you a rich dowry and a beautiful marriage."

Dawn glared with red eyes: "Young lady, don't you want me?"

When Lu Wan returned to Jiyang, Mingxiao liked to play with Lu Wan.

She was only twelve years old when her father died in battle with General Qin. Lu Wan and her mother rushed back to Jiyang to attend the funeral for her uncle. Lu Wan cried with her all day and night.

After Lu Wan knew that she had no other relatives, she took her to see the eldest lady and wanted to recognize her as his adopted sister.

Dawn was like seeing a bright light in the darkness, and she asked to be Lu Wan's maid.

Although her time with Lu Wan was short, Lu Wan treated her like a sister and never treated her as a maid.

Lu Wan hugged her: "Nonsense. With you here, I feel at ease."

Mingxiao, who had always been cold-hearted, couldn't help but want to cry.

"I just want to put your mind at ease."

Lu Wan patted her: "Master Yan is kind to me, I am very grateful, but after all, he is from the Imperial City Division. Qing Ming is his person. If someone sees that we have close contact with the Imperial City Division, we may What are you talking about?" Dawn was stunned for a while, then nodded vigorously: "Okay, slave... I told him that he doesn't have to come anymore."

Lu Wan smiled: "Qing Ming seems to be in good shape, but we need to know more about his family background. Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man."

"Big girl, I don't, I really don't." Mingxiao's face turned red and she hurriedly explained.

"The big girl is not afraid of freezing when she comes out of bed." Zhiruo pulled up Mingxiao with a straight face and tucked Lu Wan into the quilt.

"Young lady, you don't know how tired you are. What time is it now? If you want to go to the farm tomorrow, you will have to travel for three or four hours. Don't forget that you have to get up early to watch the lively tea ceremony in the concubine's room."

After training Lu Wan, he turned to glare at Mingxiao who still didn't want to leave: "Mingxiao, you have become immature, why don't you go back quickly."

"Okay, let's all go to bed after listening to the housekeeper." Lu Wan giggled and got into bed obediently.

Zhiruo put his hands on his hips angrily: "Ouch!"

Lu Wan quickly closed her eyes and pretended to snore.

Zhiruo's eyes were filled with water, she was extremely nervous today.

After preparing with Lu Wan for so long, she couldn't imagine whether she could successfully uncover the scandal of the Lu family and expose Meng Ruyi's identity in public today.

She had been extremely nervous all day long, forcing herself to stay calm by Lu Wan's side.

She had never thought that her girl could be so powerful, killing the people of the Lu family with one person's power and making them unable to resist.

However, such a big girl made her feel distressed.

How could a sixteen-year-old girl be so much bolder than her?

Maybe the older girl was as nervous as herself.

However, the matter is not over yet.

Zhiruo took a deep breath and secretly encouraged himself to be strong and protect his girl.

She sat on the footrest of the bed and stared at Lu Wan until she breathed evenly. After falling asleep, she stood up and blew out the candles, then went to sleep on the couch outside.

The next day.

Lu Wan was pulled up with sleepy eyes.

"Girl, please wake up, it's almost time to serve tea."

Lu Wan's eyes suddenly opened wide: "It's true, I almost forgot."

"The big girl is up." Zhiruo shouted outside, and Xiyan filed in with several little maids.

When Lu Wan was dressed up, she arrived at Songyunju.

Because there was no suitable place, the new house was temporarily located in Lu Shanyuan's bedroom.

Meng Ruyi had already arrived when Lu Wan entered, and she stood aside politely.

Mrs. Lu was feeling bored. When she saw Lu Wan coming in, she quickly waved, "Wan'er, come quickly."

Lu Wan smiled and stepped forward to salute: "Grandma, hello."

"Come sit next to Grandma."

Lu Wan sat down obediently and turned to look at Meng Ruyi, who was lying face to face. Her hair was combed into a beautiful Lingyun bun. There were no gorgeous jewelry and only a silver hairpin was inserted. Her fallen hair on her temples was blowing in the wind.

The bloodless face gave him a look of pity.

Yesterday was supposed to be the most glorious day for her to become the common wife of the Hou family, but overnight, all her dreams were shattered.

Lu Wan is really curious about what Meng Ruyi's state of mind is at this moment.

"Husband, my back hurts."

"Then walk slowly."

The voices of Xia Jianglian and Lu Shanyuan came from outside the door.

Lu Wan froze when she saw Meng Ruyi's face, and raised her eyes with hatred.

She raised her lips and smiled, looking back at the door.

There will be more later
