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

Chapter 115 Xia Jianglian’s methods
"Father, you often have foreign men visiting here. It is inconvenient for my mother to live here, take care of the affairs of the back house, and interact with the female relatives in the inner courtyard."

Lu Shanyuan was distracted by Lu Wan's change of subject, and immediately forgot about Meng Ruyi: "What Wan'er said is absolutely true. It turns out that the Qin family lives..."

Lu Wan immediately interrupted him: "Mom also knows that this house belongs to my mother. The Yuyi Pavilion where I live is in my mother's Shaoguang courtyard. I have never touched the things in my mother's courtyard. I have to go in when I miss her. It’s really inconvenient for my mother to live there.”

Lu Shanyuan was choked up by his words.

She looked at Xia Jianglian with some embarrassment.

Xia Jianglian didn't mind, and smiled softly: "The house belongs to my wife and sister, so naturally I have to listen to Wan'er. I can live wherever Wan'er thinks I am suitable, as long as it is convenient for me to serve the Marquis and my mother."

Yeah, sensible.

Lu Wan looked at her and smiled: "The inner courtyard second only to Shaoguang Courtyard is naturally Jinxiu Pavilion. As Aunt Meng is an aunt, she is not suitable to live there. Liulicuan where Yu Churong lives is also in Jinxiu Pavilion, so she is not suitable for it either. Live. Just move the two of them to another side hospital, right?"

Lu Wan smiled at her father who looked embarrassed.

She just wanted Meng Ruyi to see clearly how the man she thought she could rely on for the rest of her life would personally push her into the abyss step by step.

Xia Jianglian was like a spirit, so of course she knew Lu Wan's purpose.

He held Lu Shanyuan's arm affectionately and asked softly: "If Lord Marquis thinks it's inappropriate for me to live in Jinxiu Pavilion, just find a courtyard for me. I don't care about this."

Look, how virtuous.

As soon as Meng Ruyi entered the Lu Mansion, Lu Shanyuan personally took her to see Mrs. Qin and asked her to live in Jinxiu Pavilion. He also forced her mother to redecorate the main house of Jinxiu Pavilion, making it as grand as marrying a real wife.

Now, Lu Shanyuan wants to drive Meng Ruyi out personally and welcome the new mistress in. Meng Ruyi's heart is stabbed into a hornet's nest with a knife.

How could Lu Shanyuan say no?

He didn't even dare to ask for Shaoguangyuan. He was actually particularly afraid of making demands to Lu Wan, for fear that she would say something that would make him even more embarrassed.

"... Of course it's okay. You are the mistress of the Hou Mansion, you can live wherever you want... Of course, Shaoguangyuan will stay. Wan'er misses her mother."

Xia Jianglian didn't care where she lived. This was Qin's house, and it was not like Xia couldn't afford it.

Besides, it was not convenient to confront Lu Wan now. She had to take care of the Marquis's backyard first.

Meng Ruyi was disappointed and aggrieved, her eyes lowered to cover up her anger.

"By the way, since my mother has entered the house, the housekeeping affairs will naturally be handed over to my mother. I will ask your mama to hand over to you later, and I will send you the cards and account books together. The Jinxiu Pavilion has almost been emptied. Mother had to work hard to rearrange it herself.”

Lu Wan easily got rid of the chores in the Hou Mansion, she had no time to worry about them anymore.

After a while, she will give all the debt to Xia Jianglian.

It depends on whether Xia Jianglian can bear this debt.

"Isn't this...not good?" Xia Jianglian pretended to decline.

"It's your turn." Lu Shanyuan said immediately, otherwise he would be so poor when he went out to socialize that he would hardly be able to pay for a drink.

"The old lady has to teach my daughter-in-law." Xia Jianglian looked modest.

"Okay, if you don't understand anything, just come and ask me. Hey, people get sleepy easily when they get older, so I should go back and take a nap first." Mrs. Lu was exhausted and didn't want to hear any more.

Tired.

Everyone saluted and sent him off respectfully.

After seeing off the old lady, Xia Jianglian held Lu Shanyuan's arm and talked softly about the family affairs, asking for money to solve the problem. Lu Shanyuan was sobered and excited after hearing this.

Even though Mrs. Qin was generous when she was alive, Lu Shanyuan felt very aggrieved in front of her aloof face, as if he was begging her, completely unlike Xia Jianglian's initiative and enthusiasm.

Lu Shanyuan felt indescribably comfortable.

Lu Wan looked at Meng Ruyi, whose face was contorted with anger. The two serious masters in the room completely ignored her useless concubine.

Smiling faintly: "Father, my daughter is going out for a trip, so I have to leave first."

"Wan'er, please pay attention to your daughter's safety when she goes out to her home, and bring more nurses with her." Xia Jianglian looked concerned, playing the role of a qualified loving mother.

Lu Wan smiled sweetly: "Thank you, mother. There are a few people around my daughter who can fight. Please accompany your father well and give him peace of mind. Oh, by the way, my father said he wanted to teach some brothers, so my mother helped him Zhang Luo, let’s make arrangements tomorrow.”

Lu Shanyuan: "...!"

Really angry.

I can’t even put it into words, it’s so irritating!

In the dignified prince's mansion, the one who has the least say in the matter is him, the prince.

Xia Jianglian pursed her lips and smiled. If Lu Shanyuan was not angry, wouldn't she be able to show her ability?

"Don't worry, you don't have to worry about family matters and Brother Ning's matters. I'm here with you."

Xia Jianglian is really a sensible person. She directly pointed out Xiuning's matter, which reassured Lu Wan.

"Okay." Lu Wan turned around happily and heard Lu Shanyuan speak. "By the way, there were too many guests yesterday, so I couldn't have a proper drink with my father-in-law. I'll take you to see the second and third bedrooms later, let's go back, shall we?"

He came back the next day, and it was the Marquis himself who proposed it. It was so embarrassing.

Xia Jianglian's voice was full of surprise: "Master Hou is so kind to me, I am deeply grateful."

"As a family, what are you saying to be grateful? I'll get the butler's cards later. You go to the warehouse to pick out the gifts. Be sure to pick the best ones."

"Ok."

Lu Wan stepped out of the room.

Are there any good things in the warehouse?

However, Xia Jianglian didn't care about this. It would be best if she got Lu Shanyuan's heart.

Lu Wan returned to Yuyi Pavilion and immediately called Aunt Ling.

"Have you paid careful attention to the items and accounts on both sides?"

"Don't worry, eldest lady, everything is separated. All the things belonging to the madam and the girl have been moved to our warehouse in Shaoguan Yuan. Only the things you gave to the old lady and the Marquis are left."

"Well, you will make a detailed list of what you didn't get back. When you hand over to Xia Jianglian later, ask her to stamp her private seal. Also ask her to stamp her private seal on the silver IOU that grandma has stamped with her private seal. You have to let her seal it. She knows how much the Lu family owes me."

"Okay, don't worry, big girl."

Lu Wan understood Xia Jianglian very well now. Just like when her mother first entered the house, she was full of plans for the Hou Mansion.

At this time, even if she is arrogant and is not happy to be in debt as soon as she enters the house, she will definitely accept all the orders. Only in this way can she reflect the wealth of her Xia family and her virtuous character.

She would be more than happy to take advantage of someone.

"I'm going to the farm today to listen to Manager Ling's opinion on how to run the farm shop in our hands. Please pay more attention to it."

"Ok."

"Xiyan, Shuyu, the mansion is going to rearrange the residences of Meng Ruyi and Yu Churong. You two should be watched by your mother to see who is sent to serve them and give them some benefits. I want to know their movements at all times. "

"Don't worry, big girl." Xiyan and Shuyu were hanging around the house during this period. They were born in the same family, and they quickly got to know everyone.

Now Lu Mansion is full of Lu Wan's spies.

"Zhiruo, you take sisters Luzhu and Hongzhu to help grandma do the handover, and I'll just take Mingxiao out."

After the arrangements were made, Lu Wan took Ming Xiao out of the door.

Not long after Mrs. Lu returned to Yishou Hall, a mother-in-law came to tell her that Xia Jianglian had handed over the cards to her grandmother, and the stewardess Xia Jianglian brought along with her mother-in-law went to inventory the warehouse.

She also said that the Marquis personally accompanied her to present gifts to the second and third bedrooms, and then the couple chose the most expensive gift from Xia Jianglian's dowry and returned to Xia's house together.

Before leaving, Xia Jianglian ordered all the servants in the mansion to reward each person with a drop of money so that the kitchen would have extra meals. The servants in the mansion all praised the new lady for her generosity.

Mother Wu pressed Mrs. Lu's temples: "The new Mrs. is really capable."

"I hope the Lu family will be safe and sound in the future." Mrs. Lu knew her son well.

Firstly, Xia Jianglian brought a generous dowry, which just solved his urgent need. Secondly, Xia Jianglian grew up in a merchant's home and developed a good eye for all things.

It is indeed better than the indifferent Qin family and the charming Meng Ruyi.

Not only did Lu Shanyuan think she was suitable, but she also felt that she was the most suitable person to be the mistress of the Hou Mansion.

"Old madam, I didn't expect that the elders of the Zhao family would come."

Mrs. Lu suddenly opened her eyes, with a cold light in her eyes: "I think it was Lu Wan's handiwork. This girl is really cruel and will retaliate."

Aunt Wu rolled her eyes: "I think the eldest girl helped the Hou Mansion solve its dilemma. She probably didn't mean to embarrass the old lady. It's really abominable that Meng Ruyi deceived the Marquis and the old lady."

Mrs. Lu remembered that yesterday she was forced to want to hit the wall and die, and the anger in her heart was still difficult to suppress.

"I'm afraid this girl won't give up so easily. You should have people keep an eye on her."

"Yes." Grandma Wu sighed secretly.

Why doesn’t the old lady know how good the older girl is?

If the eldest daughter hadn't chosen Xia Jianglian to become the aunt of the Hou family, what would be the benefit of the stalemate between the Lu family and the eldest daughter.

But she has followed the old lady for decades and knows how much the old lady has paid for the Hou Mansion.

At that time, she also had to work hard to keep her position as a legitimate mother.

After the death of the old marquis, she forced the two old aunts to death and suppressed the second and third bedrooms before she could feel proud.

She is just a slave, she only cares about herself and her children living a good life.

For example, Kerr’s future.
