Chapter 201 Mrs. Lu’s Purpose
Chapter 201 Mrs. Lu’s Purpose
Lu Chenshuang didn't know what Old Lady Lu was up to, so she said calmly, "What are you talking about, Old Lady? There is no hatred between us. When did you say that happened? How could I have forgotten it?"
If we only talk about acting and not about feelings, Lu Chenshuang feels that she can do it.
It's just that her patience is limited and her acting skills don't last long.
Old Mrs. Lu seemed very satisfied with Lu Chenshuang's answer.
She also asked her personal nanny to bring a hairpin to Lu Chenshuang.
When Lu Chenshuang opened it, she saw that it was an ordinary silver hairpin with gemstones, which was basically used for rewarding others.
Lu Chenshuang accepted it with a smile, turned around and handed it to Guyu beside her, saying, "Please keep it for me. This is given by my grandmother, and you must not lose it."
Upon hearing this, Guyu quickly pretended to agree.
But in her heart, she thought that Old Lady Lu was really petty, not giving their daughter a gift for a hundred years.
It's such a petty gift. To be honest, neither she nor Xiaoman likes this hairpin, let alone the girl in their family.
If the Lu family was poor, Lu Chenshuang would naturally not dislike such a hairpin given by Old Lady Lu.
But considering the Lu family's current wealth, what Old Lady Lu is doing is simply disgusting.
Seeing this, Lu Chenxi covered her mouth and laughed, "Grandma, you are really biased. This hairpin was worn when you married grandfather, but now you gave it to your sister.
The love that my grandmother has for my sister is really touching.”
Old Madam Lu was a little unhappy that Lu Chenshuang did not wear the hairpin she gave her immediately, but actually let a maid keep it.
However, Lu Chenxi's words helped her save face.
Lu Chenshuang glanced at Lu Chenxi with a half-smile, then reached out and took the hairpin from Guyu.
Then he stood up, walked to Lu Chenxi and stabbed her head directly.
Lu Chenxi froze for a moment, and she reached out to pull out the hairpin on her head.
Lu Chenshuang held her hand and said, "Since my sister likes it, I will reluctantly give it to her."
Lu Chenxi felt disdainful in her heart. This broken hairpin was a plain silver hairpin that had been out of date for eight hundred years. Even her maid wouldn't wear it.
She is the daughter of the Lu family. If she wears it outside, others will laugh their heads off.
But she didn't dare say this in front of Old Lady Lu.
So he gritted his teeth and said, "Sister, what do you mean? Could it be that you don't like this hairpin because it's worthless?"
Lu Chenshuang replied without changing her expression, "What are you talking about, sister? This is my grandmother's kindness, which cannot be bought with any amount of silver. How can it be measured by its value?"
My sister also said that this hairpin was worn by my grandmother and grandfather when they got married, and it has special significance.
Could it be that my sister thinks that grandma's kindness is worthless?"
Lu Chenxi took a deep breath and forced a smile, "What are you talking about, sister? Why do I feel this way?
It’s just that this hairpin was given to my sister by my grandmother. My sister immediately gave it to me. Isn’t it a bit disrespectful of my grandmother’s kindness that she gave it to me?
Sure enough, Mrs. Lu was unhappy when she heard this.
He said with a donkey face: "This is a gift from my grandmother. If you don't like it, just say so."
Lu Chenshuang looked at Old Lady Lu and smiled again, "What are you talking about, Grandma?
In fact, there is a deeper meaning behind my giving it to my sister.
Everyone knows that my grandma and grandpa loved each other deeply and stayed together all their lives.
I guess the hairpin my grandmother wore at her wedding must have special significance.
I have been divorced once, so naturally I dare not tarnish my grandmother's feelings.
My younger sister has never been married, and she cares so much about her marriage.
I remember that before Aunt Han passed away, my sister came to my father and asked for a good marriage.
Grandma, this hairpin is so meaningful. I believe it will help my sister find a man who shares her soul with her."
It was common knowledge that Mrs. Lu and Mr. Lu had a bad relationship. I heard that they had reached the point where they were fed up with each other.
After so many years, Old Lady Lu has established herself as an affectionate person again. Since they don't find it disgusting, Lu Chenshuang doesn't mind stuffing stinky foot cloths into their mouths.
Lu Chenshuang's words left neither Mrs. Lu nor Lu Chenxi able to refute.
Finally, Mrs. Lu could only say, "Since it's your sister who gave it to you, you should accept it. This is also a token of her kindness."
Lu Chenxi felt very upset when he heard this.
But since Mrs. Lu had spoken, she had no choice but to agree.
Finally, I would like to thank Lu Chenshuang.
Lu Chenshuang found Lu Chenxi's depressed look a little funny.
Originally, as long as she behaved herself, Lu Chenshuang had no intention of fussing with the motherless child.
But since Lu Chenxi always wants to trip her up secretly, don't blame her for being rude.
Mrs. Lu talked about this and that for a while before she said, "I heard that you have a good relationship with His Royal Highness the King of War."
When Lu Chenshuang heard this, she was shocked. Wasn't this the key point? She knew that Old Lady Lu was a weasel visiting a chicken with no good intentions.
It turned out to be waiting for her here.
Before Lu Chenshuang could say anything, Lin quickly replied: "What kind of status is His Royal Highness the War King? How can Shuang'er have any friendship with him?
I just met him when I was treating the Queen Mother’s eye disease.”
Before Lin finished her words, Mrs. Lu became unhappy and scolded her, "Lin, you are thinking, are you deceiving me, an old woman?
Don’t think that I don’t know what happened at the palace banquet just because I didn’t attend it.”
Lin was about to open her mouth to explain, but Lu Chenshuang stopped her, then smiled at Old Lady Lu and said, "What the old lady said is true, His Royal Highness the King of War and I have some friendship.
He defended me at the palace banquet that day simply because he didn't want me to lose face."
After hearing this, Mrs. Lu softened her tone and said, “His Royal Highness Prince Zhan favors you in order to win over your father. After all, he is the emperor’s new upstart.
Your father doesn't have many children, only four of you brothers and sisters. You should support each other.
No matter what grudges you had in the past, they are all in the past.
Yang'er and Guang'er are fine. They are boys and have more options.
Moreover, both children are well-educated, and with your father's help, they will have no problem in their future careers.
But you and your Xier are different.
It is best for a woman to marry a man of her dreams in this life.
It’s just that you have been divorced once, and our Lu family has never looked down on you. You can plan your marriage slowly.
But your sister can’t wait any longer. She’s already sixteen years old. If she doesn’t get married soon, all the good families in the capital will be picked up by others.”
When the aunts heard this, they all lowered their heads.
They don't have children so they are not qualified to participate in this topic.
But they all felt that what Mrs. Lu said was too shameless.
She was clearly asking the young lady to do something for her, yet she was belittling her like that. I don't know where this old lady got her confidence from.
