Chapter 87 It's Me
Lu's mother was stubborn and prejudiced, believing that only when one is not upright can one bring disaster upon oneself, so she retorted with absolute certainty: "Impossible! There is no such thing as if. This is absolutely impossible."
"Although Young Master Dong is not as good a match as the Prime Minister's Mansion, it is still a family of officials. Moreover, your father is now in a high position and his official position cannot be promoted any higher. It is not suitable for you to marry into a high-ranking royal family."
"As long as he has no problems with his character and you are willing, your father and I will not make it too difficult for him."
"How could he be so impatient? And how could he choose this time to tarnish your innocence? How could a son of a noble family of officials be of such character!"
"How can you say such nonsense! What if this gets out? Do you still want to maintain your reputation?"
Miss Lu stood there in a daze.
She couldn't believe that after she hinted at the truth of the matter, all she got was her mother's firm words: It's impossible, absolutely impossible!
Does the mother think that it is impossible for this to happen to her?
Or, in comparison, she trusts a male outsider more, thinking that under the various conditions and circumstances, Master Dong would not do such a thing?
this moment,
Miss Lu turned from sadness to laughter, but her smile was uglier than crying.
She looked at Lu's mother with a calm, indifferent, and suddenly despairing gaze, and said, "In your heart, Mr. Dong... no, it should be said that the sons of official families are flawless and are all upright gentlemen."
"No matter what happens, there is always a legitimate reason to justify them."
"And the women in the harem are all scheming villains, including me, your daughter, the one you personally raised and trained. Even if I encounter such a thing as being molested, I can only blame myself for being shameless, right?"
"Or did you deny it so quickly because you thought your daughter was playing tricks on her innocence?"
Mother Lu was already beginning to get impatient, but when she wanted to scold her daughter again, she froze.
She had never seen her daughter looking at her with such disappointment and heartbreak.
like.......
It seems that my trust in myself has been shattered.
As if he had received an unusual stimulation, the vitality in his eyes was drained away in an instant.
Mother Lu's face was filled with horror, she was so shocked that she couldn't utter a word. She felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground, and seemed to be helped up by a maid.
For a long time.
Lu's mother finally managed to say, "You, what you said... is it true?"
"Heh." Miss Lu smiled sadly at herself, looked deeply at Lu's mother, didn't want to say anything more, turned around and left.
before leaving.
The flash of tears in her eyes was accurately captured by Lu's mother.
Mother Lu suddenly grasped the maid's hand, her heart pounding. She wanted to call Miss Lu to ask what was going on...
But in the end, he still shut his mouth.
how could be?
How, would that be...
at the same time.
In the side courtyard on the other side.
Accompanied by Shen Wei, Aunt Zhao went back to her room to pack her luggage.
Looking at her clothes and jewelry, Aunt Zhao's eyes flashed with a bit of amusement. She said, "I have lived carefully in the mansion for so many years, but I never thought that in the end...the only things I can take away are these few clothes."
"As for the rest, they all belong to the Marquis' Mansion. They belong to the Marquis' Mansion, not mine."
"Now that I think about it, it's really ridiculous. What should I fight for? It's not even mine."
"Besides, who can I compete with?"
She had always believed that as long as she could please the Marquis, keep his favor, and give birth to a bastard, she would be able to ensure that she would have no worries about food and clothing.
But it was not until the day she packed her bags that she realized that all the years of competing for favors were meaningless.
She did not have the lady's family background, nor did she have a dowry, nor did she have the Marquis's preference for Shen Wei.
She only has a fixed monthly salary.
Even though her status was slightly higher than that of a maid and she was considered half a master, she still had to spend money everywhere in the Marquis's Mansion. As a result, she had no money on her except for the jewelry she was rewarded with.
The jewelry, vases, ornaments and other objects given as rewards were all printed with the seal of the Marquis's Mansion.
She can't take it away.
She is an abandoned woman, and Madam Hou will not allow her to take her away!
Until this moment,
She felt disappointed and really didn't know what she had been fighting for all these years.
Shen Wei pursed her lips and patted Aunt Zhao's shoulder. She had asked Xiaoman to go back to her room to get ten taels of silver a long time ago. Now it was time to use it. She put the silver in Aunt Zhao's hand.
He said, "Please take this money first."
"Don't refuse. You know me. I don't like to push things around and then accept them. Be straightforward! Although my shop has a place to stay, you still have to buy some supplies when you go out."
