After listening to the words of the second madam, Old Madam Lu's face eased a little. She looked at Lu Fang and said, "The Liang family is not a good match. I will decide your marriage for you."
Liu-shi sneered, "Mother, Fang 'er was the one who begged for this marriage. I didn't decide it on my own."
Old Madam Lu's eyes became sharp as she looked at Lu Fang. "Fang 'er, is what your mother said true?"
"Grandmother, please fulfill my wish." Lu Fang knelt down and begged. She knew that today's Lu family was different from the past, but she was just a concubine's daughter, and her father had passed away. No one loved her at all. She did not have the talent of her fourth sister, nor the beauty of Yao Yao. If she missed this opportunity, she would never be able to become the Marquis's wife in her life.
Even if she became the second wife, Marquis Liang had no son. In the future, when she married, she would be the mistress of the family. All she wanted was status.
"Fang 'er, what are you talking about? How can a girl ask for marriage like this? Are you worried that the old madam will harm you? "Lu Shixun frowned and reprimanded her.
Old Madam Lu looked at Lu Fang in silence. "Have you thought it through?"
Ye Zhen gently pulled Lu Fang. "Second sister, the Liang family is not as good as you think. You have to think it through."
"I have thought about it very clearly. Grandmother, please fulfill Fang 'er." Lu Fang-er knelt and kowtowed. It had been extremely difficult for her to get the eldest madam to decide this marriage for her. She wouldn't let it all go to waste in the end. As long as she became the marquis's wife, she would be able to fight for her aunt's face in the future.
Old Madam Lu said with a cold face, "If I don't agree, will you blame me for destroying your good marriage? Even Yao Yao knows that the Liang family is not good. You are two years older than her. Why don't you understand? "
"Fang 'er doesn't dare." Lu Fang lowered her head and said.
"Well, since you insist on marrying into the Liang family, I don't want to provoke your resentment. It's just that you have to bear the burden alone in the future. Let me advise you again today. The Liang family is not worthy of you. Go back and think about it, and answer me tomorrow." Old Madam Lu said.
Lu Fang-er was delighted. "Yes, grandmother."
Ye Zhen saw her expression and knew that Lu Fang would not change her mind no matter how long she thought about it. She originally just wanted to use Lu Fang to prevent Mrs Liu from scheming against her. She did not expect that Lu Fang wanted to marry into the Liang family.
If the Liang family really was a good marriage, how could the Liu matriarch allow Lu Fang-er to marry them? She didn't have any good intentions.
Because of this incident, Old Madam Lu's mood was affected. Ye Zhen and Lu Shiming told a lot of jokes to make the old lady laugh again.
"You've learned your temper from your father. When you're naughty, you're really like a wild monkey." Old Madam Lu hugged Ye Rou in her arms and scolded her with a smile.
Ye Zhen said seriously, "Grandmother, the child of a wild monkey is a wild monkey."
"So you're saying that Old Madam is also a wild monkey?" The Yun matriarch said with a fake smile. She still saw Ye Rou as a thorn in her side.
This Liu matriarch really doesn't know how to talk! Ye Zhen looked at her with a faint smile, "Aunt, if the old madam is a shrewd monkey, then I don't know how many people are looking forward to being a shrewd monkey. How many people can be like the old madam, have a granddaughter as beautiful as me, a son as handsome as my father, and a noble identity like my eldest brother and eldest sister?"
The people in the room burst into laughter. Lu Shixun shook his head and said to Lu Shiming, "Third brother, your daughter is really good at talking."
Lu Shiming nodded proudly, "She learned it from me."
"You are the most shameless." Old Madam Lu said to her son unceremoniously.
Everyone chatted and laughed for a while. In the evening, a banquet was held to celebrate the good news from Lu Lingzhi. Ye Zhen accompanied the old madam all the time, just like everyone else, looking forward to Lu Lingzhi's triumphant return. Looking at the smiling faces of everyone in the Lu family, Ye Zhen felt even more suffocated. At the beginning, she instigated Lu Lingzhi to go to the western vassal state, not for him to make meritorious achievements, but for him to return injured.
She knew that he would definitely be injured in this trip, and it would be a very serious injury. He would need to recuperate for at least half a year. As long as he was injured at home, she would have a way to deal with him. Today's good news … Perhaps it was just the beginning.
Ye Zhen managed to stay up until the end of the banquet. Not long after she returned to her room, Lu Fang came to find her.
"Second sister, you came at the right time. I wanted to go to you." Seeing Lu Fang, Ye Zhen asked Dai Mei to prepare tea.
Lu Fang looked at Ye Zhen with a blank expression. "I know what you want to say to me. Yao Yao, you don't have to say anything. I will not change my mind about this matter."
Ye Zhen frowned slightly. "Fang, although Liang Chun looks good on the surface, he is not as good as you think."
"But after I marry him, I will be the Marquis's wife." Lu Fang said in a low voice.
"You married Liang Chun just to be the Marquis's wife?" Ye Zhen felt incredulous. Was her status comparable to her lifelong happiness?
Lu Fang said, "I don't have your beauty. Yao Yao, even if you enter the palace in the future, you will not necessarily lose to the Imperial Concubine. Don't fight with me for the Marquis of Liang Ping, okay?"
"…" Ye Zhen asked, amused. "Do you think I'm persuading you because I want to fight with you? If I wanted this marriage, I would not have refused it last time. Second sister, if you don't listen to grandmother's advice, you will regret it in the future. "
Lu Fang said stubbornly, "Even if I regret it, it's my business."
Ye Zhen nodded. "Well, then I won't persuade you. For the sake of our sisterhood, I will say one more thing. You should first find out what kind of hobby Liang Chun has, and then decide whether you are willing to marry him."
"Thank you for your kindness, third sister." Lu Fang raised her chin and pretended to be noble. "I also want to thank you. If it weren't for your advice, I wouldn't have been able to let my mother decide my marriage with the Liang family."
Ye Zhen was speechless. At first, she just wanted Mrs. Liu to be ill for a few days. Who knew that she was not in good health and could communicate with the Liang family? It seemed that she had underestimated Mrs. Liu.
Lu Fang-er left with her arrogance. Ye Zhen shook her head and sighed. She had said everything she needed to say, but Lu Fang-er was still unrepentant. There was nothing she could do about it.
As for Mrs. Liu … Since she no longer wanted to intervene in her affairs, Ye Zhen would not deal with her again. Otherwise, she would have to let her be ill for a few more days.
"Miss, this is the invitation that someone sent to you just now." Dai Mei came in from outside, holding an invitation in her hand.
Who sent her an invitation? Ye Zhen thought doubtfully. When she opened it, her eyebrows were cold. It was Tang Zhen!
He had the nerve to invite her to his family's banquet!
Ye Zhen picked up the pen and wrote two words on the post, "Did the person who sent the post leave? Return this post!"
When Tang Zhen got the reply, he looked at the two words inside and was speechless for a long time.
Go to hell!
