After rebirth, my elder sister wants to steal my husband!

Hearing Lu Zhiran's ignorant refusal to take this good job, Zhang was delighted and quickly agreed.

"Yes! Mother, Lu Zhiran has just come into the family. Even if we want to give her the power of housekeeper in the future, it's too hasty!"

The old lady felt a headache when she heard what Zhang said.

This troublesome enemy spends all day squandering money on gambling and now wants to interfere in her affairs.

"Zhang, have you finished copying the book I asked you to copy? Also, as a mother, if you don't know how to speak, don't talk nonsense!"

Zhang's face changed when her shortcomings were exposed in front of the younger generation, and she became even angrier towards Lu Zhiran.

After confronting Zhang, the old lady looked at Lu Zhiran, who looked very humble, but her specific thoughts could not be seen.

Faced with Lu Zhiran's evasion, the old lady was somewhat dissatisfied.

But thinking that Lu Zhiran was young and ignorant, she finally softened her tone, patted Lu Zhiran on the shoulder, and a bit of helplessness appeared on her kind face. The old lady sighed slightly.

"Lu Zhiran, you little girl... there are so many people vying to be in charge of this housekeeping matter, why are you so stupid as to push it away? Besides, my grandson is not doing well, so sooner or later, the management of this family will be handed over to you."

"Wouldn't it be better if you could learn from me, an old woman, early on?"

Zhang was standing aside, looking coldly at the old lady who was so rude to her and then tried to coax and praise Lu Zhiran. She felt so depressed in her heart.

She had never touched the ancestral bracelet, but it was only the first day Lu Zhiran arrived, and all these things were handed to her by the old lady. How could this be possible?

The more Zhang secretly compared herself with Lu Zhiran, the more she felt that the old lady was extremely biased.

The sisters Fu Baiying and Fu Qingli were also very unhappy with the old lady's favoritism. Seeing their mother's ugly face, they exchanged glances and went up to support her.

They just wanted to say something for Zhang, but when they saw their grandmother's stern face, they dared not say anything more.

Lu Zhiran looked at the old lady's smiling expression and felt that the old lady's methods were really powerful. Without making a sound, she put herself in a dilemma.

Even if she refused to take over the management power now, she would offend Zhang.

It would be better to accept this matter. Anyway, she will be able to deal with it when the time comes. If she wants to settle down in this marquis's mansion, there is no way to avoid this kind of thing.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhiran's expression became more serious.

"Grandma, then... I will learn from you!"

"Cough cough..."

Lu Zhiran had just agreed when Zhang started coughing in anger.

"..."

Lu Zhiran walked over to Zhang and asked with concern.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?"

Zhang's face turned pale and blue with anger, and she felt more and more depressed. When Lu Zhiran asked her what was wrong, she was almost mad to death.

She is just a concubine's daughter from a small family, yet she dares to seize the power of housekeeper. She is really bold.

Zhang now felt that Lu Zhiran's caring inquiries were all hypocritical.

In front of the old lady, Zhang couldn't get angry, so she calmly avoided Lu Zhiran's outstretched hand and greeted the old lady.

"Mother, maybe I got a head blew by the wind last night and I'm not feeling well. I'm going back to rest now."

The old lady looked at Zhang's expression and knew that she was very angry and wanted to make trouble for Lu Zhiran, but she couldn't do it because she was in the situation. She was very depressed and planned to leave early so as not to see anything.

But the old lady was happy that Zhang disliked Lu Zhiran.

After all, if you want to train a capable hostess for the Marquis' Mansion, you will need some whetstone.

"Go!"

The old lady nodded and responded to Zhang's words.

With the old lady's approval, Zhang quickly slipped away, and Fu Baiying and Fu Qingli also left on the pretext of taking care of their mother.

For a moment, Lu Zhiran and the old lady were the only two people left in the living room.

"They're all gone, Lu Zhiran, and you're the only one left who doesn't despise an old woman like me!"

"Grandma, what are you talking about? Mother is not feeling well, that's why she can't stay here."

Lu Zhiran stepped forward and helped the old lady to sit at the dining table. At this time, the maids had already prepared breakfast.

Here, Lu Zhiran was serving breakfast to the old lady. She was very adept at doing this kind of thing. After all, she had done this kind of thing thousands of times in the Mu family in her previous life.

Although Mu's mother was a widow, her character was more vicious than that of an ordinary mother-in-law.

Lu Zhiran had been disciplined by her many times in the past, and because of that, he had developed a good ability to read people's expressions.

The old lady also wanted to have breakfast with Lu Zhiran and observe her temperament at the same time, but she didn't expect that in the end she was coaxed by Lu Zhiran so happily that she forgot her original purpose.

When Lu Zhiran was dealing with the old lady, he even had the energy to think that he didn't know that Lu Nianyao was obsessed with marrying Mu Qizon so that she could enjoy the blessing of being the prime minister's wife.

I don’t know if she can endure the suffering ahead.

After all, apart from having a sweetheart cousin, Mu Qizon is also a typical mama's boy.

……

Lu Nianyao brought Ke'er to the village where Mu Qi Zong lived in a horse-drawn carriage. As soon as she got off the carriage, she was shocked by the scene in front of her.

The Mu family, which had not yet risen to prominence, was actually so poor.

The house is so dilapidated that several tiles on the roof have fallen off.

If it rains now, the house will leak again.

"Ke'er, are you sure this is the Mu family?"

Lu Nianyao looked at the chickens and ducks raised in the yard with disdain. She covered her nose with a handkerchief, fearing that the unpleasant smell of chicken and duck feces would contaminate her.

"Miss, there can't be any mistake. Ke'er has already confirmed it on San. This is the one. There can't be any mistake."

Hearing what her personal maid Ke'er said, Lu Nianyao felt very complicated.

In her previous life, she heard that Mu Qizon, with whom she had been engaged since childhood, was a poor scholar. She despised him so much that she never thought of visiting him. After she successfully pushed her marriage to Lu Zhiran, she naturally wanted to stay away from him.

So no matter in the past life or this life, Lu Nianyao knew very little about Mu Qi Zong.

This was the first time she saw the house where Mu Qizon once lived.

Forget it, for the future position of Prime Minister’s wife, these are only temporary.

After all, in two years, Mu Qizon will be able to become an official and move to a new residence.

Five years later, Mu Qizong will become the Prime Minister, and the house he will live in then will be much more magnificent and spacious than the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion.

Lu Nianyao turned her back and took a deep breath. She prepared herself mentally, and walked slowly into the Mu family's small courtyard with a look of sacrificing herself.

It’s strange, isn’t Mu Qi Zong bedridden?

Why is it so quiet here, as if there is no one here!

Isn’t Mu’s mother at home taking good care of her precious son?

With a hint of doubt in her mind, Lu Nian Yao walked in step by step. As soon as she reached the door, she heard a soft and weak voice coming from inside.

"Cousin, I feel really bad for the injury on your leg..."
