Chapter 86 Telling
For a moment, Lu's mother was unable to feel her daughter's emotional fluctuations. She only felt that the child she had educated for more than ten years had suddenly become stubborn and ignorant.
therefore,
Mother Lu's face darkened slightly, and she said the following words without thinking: "What do you mean innocent? Flies don't bite eggs without cracks. If she had behaved properly, how could she have encountered such a thing?"
"Why didn't Master Dong flirt with others, but had to flirt with her? Besides, if she wasn't so charming, how could Master Dong be attracted to her?"
"With Master Dong's family background, he can marry any innocent girl he wants. Why would he force a concubine of low status to marry him?"
When she said this, Lu's mother paused.
She suddenly remembered that Miss Lu had been to the Marquis' Mansion once or twice and had contact with Qin Shuyu. It seemed that there had been correspondence between the two?
Thinking of this, Lu's mother quickly warned: "I remember you came to the Marquis' Mansion several times. Don't come here again in the future."
"The family tradition of the Marquis' Mansion is not good now. If you continue to come into contact with the women in the Marquis' Mansion, it will affect your reputation. It will be difficult for you to marry a good man in the future. Which in-laws would want a daughter-in-law who is immoral?"
"Before, the Marquis' Mansion had a whimsical and wild-minded Shen Wei, and now there is a seductive concubine. What a terrible trend..."
"......"
Miss Lu stood there in a daze.
Her head was buzzing, her whole body was cold, and an indescribable chill penetrated into her bones.
She looked at her biological mother's opening and closing mouth with dilated pupils...her mouth was opening and closing as she was teaching her, but she couldn't hear a word she said.
Her mind was filled with grievance and anger at being bullied by Master Dong!
It was the mother's prejudiced and stubborn denial!
It’s the saying that flies don’t bite seamless eggs!
so?
Does the mother think that she is also immoral?
Miss Lu felt that even breathing was stinging. She silently lowered her head, her eyes filled with tears, and she tried hard not to let them fall.
Mother Lu noticed Miss Lu's bowing of her head, but she didn't take it to heart. She still looked stern and scolded Miss Lu: "Did you listen to what I said?"
"You've been speaking for that aunt all day long. You weren't like this before!"
"Did you learn bad things from that vixen Shen Wei?"
"I know she saved you from the bandits before, and our Prime Minister's Mansion also sent you gifts before. Whether she accepts them or not, the intention is there. You should not have anything to do with Shen Wei again in the future."
"Her reputation in the capital is ruined."
"If we get involved with her, my house can't afford to lose this person."
As soon as these cold and sharp words fell.
Swish!
The taut string in Miss Lu's heart suddenly broke. She raised her head suddenly and tears fell like pearls from a broken string.
The first word that Lu's mother used to slander Aunt Zhao made Miss Lu feel humiliated and chilled, because she felt that Lu's mother was scolding her with every word.
It was because she was shameless and trusted Master Dong that her innocence was almost tarnished.
It was because she didn't know people well and looked down on herself that such a scandal happened!
Is it her fault?
Miss Lu stared at her mother closely, tears welling in her eyes, and asked word by word: "Mother, do you look down on Shen Wei and Aunt Zhao so much?"
"Then let me ask you!"
"If I were to encounter this situation today, and the person whose reputation was almost ruined was me, not Aunt Zhao, mother, would you beat me to death to preserve the reputation of the Xiangfu?"
"Do you think I'm willing to be degraded and deserve to be defiled by Master Dong?"
These earth-shaking words hit Lu's mother's ears!
Mother Lu wanted to refute and say something, but when she looked up, she met her daughter's red and swollen eyes and saw the pain and heartbreak in her daughter's eyes.
This moment!
Mother Lu's tense face relaxed instantly, and she suddenly realized that things were not as simple as they seemed.
When she came with Madam Hou...
His own daughter was not among the guests watching the fun, but stood with Aunt Zhao.
Miss Lu saw the change in expression on her mother's face and realized that she might have some doubts.
She took a deep breath, clenched her fingers, and mustered up the courage to tell the truth that shocked Mother Lu: "Mom, I'm going to tell you the truth."
"It wasn't Aunt Zhao that Master Dong wanted to defile, it was me! He secretly followed me to the back garden."
"After you left just now, he followed me and attacked the maid next to me."
W-what?
Mother Lu's eyes widened and her whole body turned cold.
"Then he tried to do something indecent to me. I didn't dare to shout loudly, and I couldn't. I knew the reputation of the prime minister's mansion was more important than my life, but I was terrified at the time."
"You always taught me that men are different from women. Men have great ambitions and ambitions, and they have hearts as high as the sky and as vast as the sea. I have always believed this, but you never taught me that there are also men who are insidious and vicious, and who will do anything to achieve their goals!"
"If Shen Wei and Aunt Zhao hadn't arrived in time, I would have been ruined long ago."
"Mother, if Shen Wei hadn't saved me at that time, or Aunt Zhao hadn't come out to cover up for me, when the truth came out, would you and father have abandoned me for the reputation of the Xiangfu?"
When Lu Mu heard this, her expression changed drastically.
Faced with her daughter's tears and questioning, and faced with the truth, she subconsciously wanted to deny it.
I want to deny that this kind of thing could never happen to my daughter!
This must be a joke, right?
She has raised her daughter for more than ten years and knows her character best. How could such a good girl encounter such a terrible scandal?
