Chapter 17 - Excavation

"Good, good, good. If mother doesn't die, mother's words will be filled with anger." The Mrs. Gu replied hurriedly.

"Mother, quickly drink some tea."

"Yes." Mrs. Gu drank a few mouthfuls of tea and endured the itch in her throat as she pulled her daughter to lie down.

After that, she panted and said, "Mother just hates herself for being useless. She's so sick that she can't even control a concubinage …"

But Lu Ruoqing said: "Lu Zhenger is extremely mischievous, what does she have to do with Mother? She wants to go on with her work, and she can't blame anyone else. I have my own ways of dealing with her. "

"Deal?" Mrs. Gu looked at her daughter doubtfully.

He could not help but ask hesitantly, "Could it be that you already have a grudge between you two? What else does Mother not know? Ah, Ruoqing, don't hide this from Mother. "

"Then I'll say it, Mother. Don't get angry."

"Alright, alright, alright. I'm not going to get angry."

"Didn't I encounter some trouble before when I went to the Dazhao Temple? In the end, when Lu Zhenger found out, he took out silver to buy the little girl, and went around to ruin my reputation, and said many unpleasant things. "

Mrs. Gu opened her eyes wide, "She actually dares to …"

"Mother!" Lu Ruoqing caressed his mother's hands, "You said that you won't be angry, but if you want to be angry, I won't say anything else."

Mrs. Gu's face changed again, "Later? "And?"

"Yeah, but I did the rest."

Lu Ruoqing lowered her voice, and told her about arranging for Wang Guanmei to fall, as well as pretending to fall.

Then, he said, "Anyway, Mother, you don't have to worry. Today …" It's time for me to retract the net! "

Mrs. Gu looked at her daughter in shock and didn't know what to say for a long time.

Lu Ruoqing's eyes flickered, and said worriedly: "Mother? "You …" Do you think I'm learning badly? "Too vicious."

"No." Mrs. Gu shook her head, a complicated look in her eyes.

"You are my blood and bone, why would I think you are bad at studying? "Even if you kill someone, Mother will help you hide your knife, that is …"

After saying that, she couldn't help but shed tears, "It's all my fault. I was so sick that I didn't protect you well. You were so young that you had no choice but to use these backdoor tricks."

"Mom, it's good as long as you don't blame me." Lu Ruoqing heaved a sigh of relief.

"Silly girl, you're my daughter."

Lu Ruoqing pretended to be relaxed, and smiled: Mother, I had learnt a bit earlier, there's nothing wrong with that, at least, it's better than being tricked, right? "So, you don't have to be sad."

Mrs. Gu was no longer sad, but resentful.

"Lu Zhenger, for you to ruin your reputation first is equivalent to destroying your life. A concubinage actually went out to frame their direct descendant, it is truly too arrogant. "

Lu Ruoqing curled her lips, and said with ridicule: "Isn't there still people who are used to it."

Lu Zhenger had been raised by the Yun Family since young and lived with her grandmother in the Jung De Tang.

And when she and Lu Zhenger had an argument, the Yun Family would always side with Lu Zhenger, so how could Lu Zhenger have concubinage's consciousness?

He had long since forgotten his lowly status.

Therefore, Lu Zhenger tried to get on her good side every single time, and did not hesitate to frame her!

Because there was nothing to fear.

Mrs. Gu was silent for a moment, then said angrily: "Your aunt has been a widow for many years, and did not marry. I feel that she is really pitiful, so I just let her have her way at every turn."

She sighed, "It's just that I don't know, she …" To actually make Zheng Er have such a malicious temper. "

Lu Ruoqing advised: "Mother, you don't need to worry, just let me deal with them."

Lu Ruoqing held Mrs. Gu's hand and said happily: "I knew Mother dotes on me the most."

Mrs. Gu laughed in anger, "I don't love you, who should I love?"

Just as the mother and daughter were talking warmly, a commotion suddenly came from outside the door. The little girl reported, "Madam, Miss, the Old Granny, Aunt and Second Miss are here."

The smile on Mrs. Gu's face vanished, and she said coldly: "You came at just the right time! "Let's see what else she can say."

"Mom, listen to me." Lu Ruoqing quickly whispered a few words.

"Lu Zhenger is the most impatient. Wait, I will purposely provoke her with my words, and then … "Mother, then …"

"This …" Mrs. Gu's expression changed a little when she heard this. She turned around to look at her daughter, then nodded lightly, "Alright, mother will listen to you."

Lu Ruoqing accompanied her mother out the door and into the hall.

Mistress Cloud had already sat down in her chair.

It was as if she was the master of the Dark Bamboo Restaurant and not a guest.

Seeing that the mother and daughter pair had arrived, he stood up and laughed: "Zheng Er is too mischievous, to actually push Ruoqing down. "This is …" I brought her here to apologize. "

Hearing how he avoided the issue, Lu Ruoqing laughed coldly in his heart.

"Aunt, it's only a small matter for Zheng Ermeimei to push me down, so I don't mind. But she did not care for her sisterhood and used dirty water to ruin my reputation, so I cannot forgive her! "

Mistress Cloud was stunned for a moment.

Lu Zhenger's face flushed red, she gritted her teeth in anger.

She never thought that Lu Ruoqing would still be so tough after she humbly came over to apologize.

What do you mean, unforgivable?

Did he still want to beat her up?

Lu Ruoqing said in a stern voice, "Zheng Er, now explain everything in front of mother and aunt!"

She asked, "Why do you want to ruin my reputation for no reason? Why did you say those unsightly words? "

How could Lu Zhenger still say that? She was so angry that her liver hurt, and her chest rose and fell.

Her heart was truly aggrieved.

Originally, she did not want to compensate for this crime. In her opinion, all of this was Lu Ruoqing's fault!

was unyielding, angered to the point that her liver hurt, she clenched her teeth and said: "Elder sister, don't go overboard!"

"I'm being excessive?" Lu Ruoqing sneered.

"Didn't you just say that I went out to meet some wild men?"

"Is it too much for you to slander your sister like that?"

"Also, you personally pushed me down, causing me to bleed from my injuries. Is that too much?"

Lu Zhenger could not hold it in any longer, and said angrily: "You went against the rules first! We'll go out once in the morning and once in the afternoon, and only come back after dark. Who knows what kind of wild man we'll meet? "

She pursed her lips and muttered, "Besides, you fell down on your own afterwards. How could you let me off..."

"How dare you!"

Mrs. Gu stood up in anger and scolded: "Bastard! Kneel down! "

Lu Zhenger was startled.

She had grown up beside the Yun Family and was very well-liked. She naturally didn't need to lower her head in front of Mrs. Gu, and didn't have any respect for him at all.

As a result, she just stood there without moving, with no intention to kneel.

Mrs. Gu immediately sneered, "What? This mother of mine is unable to control you. "

Although the Mrs. Gu did not raise Lu Zhenger, in terms of status, she was still Lu Zhenger's only direct mother.

But Lu Zhenger could not accept it.

She felt wronged and angry at the same time. She questioned, "Why should I kneel?"

Mrs. Gu reprimanded her: "You tarnished big sister's reputation, contradicted direct mother, and still have the face to ask me why?"

Lu Zhenger said angrily: "It's elder sister who is being unruly first!"

Mrs. Gu did not argue with her, but looked towards the Yunlu clan.

"Although Zheng Er was raised by you, she's still surnamed Lu, right? Since she is the daughter of the Lu Family, then as the direct mother, it is only right for me to control her. "

Clan Yun Lu's expression was not good, and said gloomily: "Didn't I ask Zheng Er to apologize? "What do you mean kneeling or not?"

Seeing that, Lu Ruoqing chuckled, "Aunt, you kept saying, Zheng Ermeimei is here to apologize."

Madam Yun Lu said: "That's right, Zheng Er is here to apologize."

Lu Ruoqing laughed coldly, "But ever since Zheng Er entered the room, I didn't hear a single apology. Instead, she continued to slander me, and contradict mother."

The Yun Family only wanted to end this as soon as possible.

Suppressing his anger, he patted Lu Zhenger: "Quickly! Apologize! "

Lu Zhenger's eyes burned with anger.

After gritting his teeth for a while, he forced out a sentence, "Elder sister, I was in the wrong. I shouldn't have pushed you away."

Yun Lu immediately said: "Enough! "You've already said too much. Let's go."

Lu Zhenger turned and was about to leave.

It was a pity that Lu Ruoqing did not plan to let her go, and shouted: "Then what about you slandering my wild man? "This …" "It's even more vicious than when you push me down."

"You said I'm malicious?" Lu Zhenger said angrily.

Lu Ruoqing sneered, "Are you just planning on letting it go like this? This is what you should regret the most! "

Of course Lu Ruoqing was not finished.

She continued, "Today, you must clearly explain to me why you slandered me for no reason at all."

"You say that I'm some random guy? Do you have any proof?"

"Without evidence, why would you ruin my reputation so viciously?"

"In my opinion, it's all because of your heart!"

He interrogated them again and again with an aggressive tone.

His goal was to anger Lu Zhenger.

"My heart is black? Can you tell me who you saw and what you did when you went out in the afternoon and came back in the dark? Tell me first! "

Lu Ruoqing pretended to be guilty and her eyes flashed.

It was as if there really was some sort of adultery.

Seeing that, Lu Zhenger became even more excited.

Taking a step forward, he asked, "Speak! "If you want to explain what you did and prove that you were innocent, I will apologize again and admit that I was wrong!" "You … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you … you …"

Lu Ruoqing cleared her throat and said: "What is there to explain? It's just that I'm so greedy, I went to Amphibiscus to eat dinner, there's nothing wrong with that. "

Lu Zhen'er cried out, "You're lying! "Lies!"

She felt that Lu Ruoqing was lying, but couldn't expose it.

She anxiously looked at Madam Yun, "Aunt, she definitely isn't telling the truth! "It's just that they bullied me for not catching a clue!"

The Yun Family naturally sided with Lu Zhenger.

Furthermore, Lu Ruoqing had been pressured by the Mrs. Gu earlier, and she was being overbearing and infuriated, hence she was even more suspicious of Lu Ruoqing's eyes.

He continued immediately: "Ruoqing, you're a girl, why are you going out to eat dinner alone? You don't have any family to accompany you, no matter what you say, it's not in accordance with the rules. "

Mrs. Gu was displeased: "What do you mean? What's not in line with the rules? "

Madam Yun had long since forgotten her purpose in coming to apologize.

Her tone was full of ridicule, "Sister-in-law, are you crazy? Go outside and ask if there is a girl out for a meal alone who is waiting for the night to come back. If others were to know about it, they would think that our Lu Family's tutoring is not good. "

Mrs. Gu was so angry that her chest was heaving up and down, pointing at her, "You, you … …" Do not slander Ruoqing! "

"Mother." Lu Ruoqing quickly pulled her down and sat her down. "Don't be anxious, drink your tea first, talk slowly if you have something to say."

Seeing that, Patriarch Yun Lu became even more pleased, and said sarcastically: "I am also worried about Ruoqing, and am afraid that she has befriended an unclean person, why can't I ask her? I'm an aunt, so it's only right for me to ask. "

These words were clearly aimed at the previous words that came from the Mrs. Gu.

Mrs. Gu was so angry that she couldn't say a word.

The Yun family said in a strange tone: "Ruoqing, you did wrong and did not sit properly yourself, it was a good intention for Zheng Er to stop you. But now, you are actually complaining about Zheng Er, you can't be blamed anymore for feeling wronged. "

Lu Ruoqing ignored her.

She was busy rubbing the Mrs. Gu's chest and back, and said in a low voice, "Mother … "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything."

At this moment, a woman suddenly came in from outside.

He shouted anxiously, "Eldest Miss, this is bad! People outside are talking about you. They say that when you went to Dazhao Temple, you were humiliated by others.
