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

In the Fu Mansion, the spring sunshine shines through the carved window lattices and shines into the quiet courtyard. However, this peaceful atmosphere is broken by an uninvited guest - Mu Qizong, Lu Zhiran's brother-in-law, a man with a bright appearance but a cunning heart.

Ever since Fu Yuzhang left for the army, Mu Qizong has been like a wolf that smelled blood, repeatedly coming to Fu's house to cause trouble. He has a handsome appearance, but his eyes always flash with cunning and greed. Today, he once again stepped into the gate of Fu's house, followed by several ferocious servants, looking menacing.

Lu Zhiran sat in the hall, holding a handkerchief tightly in her hand. Her face was a little haggard, but her eyes were extremely firm. She knew that Mu Qizong must have come here for some purpose. Sure enough, as soon as Mu Qizong entered the door, he glanced around with contempt, and finally fixed his eyes on Lu Zhiran.

"Hey, isn't this my good sister? Why do you become so haggard after Fu Yuzhang left?" Mu Qizon's voice was full of sarcasm.

Lu Zhiran stood up and walked towards Mu Qizong. Although her voice was weak, it was firm and powerful: "Mu Qizong, what are you doing here?"

Mu Qizong smiled, walked up to Lu Zhiran, and gently lifted her chin with his hand: "Sister, look at you, your face is yellower than that yellow flower. Why, didn't Fu Yuzhang leave you some money? Or are you not good at managing the household and squandered all the family wealth?"

Lu Zhiran's face froze. She shook off Mu Qizong's hand and took a few steps back: "Mu Qizong, stop talking nonsense! Yuzhang fought for his country, how could I covet his money?"

Seeing Lu Zhiran's intense reaction, Mu Qizong's eyes flashed with a hint of pride. He turned around and looked at Zhang who was sitting next to him, and his tone became even more harsh: "Oh, isn't this my mother-in-law? How come, after Fu Yuzhang left, you can't even afford to wear a decent piece of jewelry?"

Zhang was old and usually lived on the money sent back by Fu Yuzhang. Now that she was humiliated by Mu Qizong, she was so angry that she trembled all over, but she was powerless to refute.

Seeing this, Mu Qizong became even more complacent. He walked up to Zhang and pointed his fan at her nose: "I'm telling you, from today on, everything in the Fu Mansion will be under my control! If you dare to complain, don't blame me for being rude!"

Seeing this, Lu Zhiran was furious. She rushed forward and protected Zhang: "Mu Qi Zong, don't go too far! Although Yu Zhang is not here, my mother and I are still here! This Fu Mansion is our home, why do you care about it?"

Mu Qizong sneered and waved his hand. The servants behind him immediately stepped forward and surrounded Lu Zhiran: "Sister, you are becoming more and more ignorant of the rules. This Fu Mansion is the property of my Mu family. I came here today to take back everything here!"

Lu Zhiran's heart tightened. She knew that Mu Qizong was determined to occupy the Fu Mansion. But she couldn't back down. She had to protect her mother and this family. She took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "If anyone dares to touch us, when Yu Zhang comes back, you will definitely be in trouble!"

Mu Qizong's face darkened when he heard this. He knew how powerful Fu Yuzhang was, but at this moment he was overwhelmed by greed and jealousy. He waved his hand and signaled the servants to take action.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried horse hooves outside the door. Then, a familiar figure rushed in - it was Fu Yuzhang's best friend, Li Haoran.

As soon as Li Haoran entered the room, he saw the chaotic scene in front of him. He shouted, "Stop!" Seeing this, the servants stopped what they were doing.

When Mu Qizong saw that the person coming was Li Haoran, his face changed. Although he was greedy, he also knew that Li Haoran was not someone to be trifled with. He pretended to be calm, walked forward and asked: "Li Haoran, what are you doing..."

Li Haoran ignored Mu Qizong, but walked up to Lu Zhiran and Zhang and asked with concern: "Zhiran, are you okay?"

Lu Zhiran shook his head, tears of gratitude flashing in his eyes: "Li Haoran, thank you for coming to rescue me."

Li Haoran nodded, turned to look at Mu Qizong, and said sternly: "Mu Qizong, you are so brave! How dare you bully Fu Yuzhang's family when he is not at home! Do you know your crime?"

Mu Qizong was overwhelmed by Li Haoran's aura and felt flustered. But he still pretended to be calm and argued, "Li Haoran, you misunderstood. I just came to see my sister and mother-in-law. I have no ill intentions."

Li Haoran snorted coldly: "Humph, do you think I don't know what you are thinking? Let me tell you, although Fu Yuzhang is not here, we are still here as friends. If you dare to bully Zhiran and the others again, don't blame me for being rude!"

Mu Qizong was frightened by Li Haoran's words. He knew that he had hit a wall today. He quickly nodded and apologized: "Yes, yes, Li Haoran's lesson is right. I will never dare to do it again."

After saying that, Mu Qizong left Fu's house with his servants in disgrace. Lu Zhiran and Zhang looked at his back, feeling both relieved and sad. They knew that as long as Fu Yuzhang didn't come back, they would never have peace. But they also believed that as long as they persisted, they would wait for the day when Fu Yuzhang would come back.

In the Fu Mansion, as Mu Qizong and his party left, the air in the courtyard seemed to be a little lighter. Lu Zhiran helped Zhang sit down, her eyes revealing a bit of determination and unyielding. She knew that although today's matter was temporarily resolved, there was still a long way to go in the future, and they needed to be more cautious.

Zhang looked at her daughter, her eyes full of heartache and helplessness. She gently patted the back of Lu Zhiran's hand, and said with a bit of vicissitudes in her tone: "Zhiran, you have suffered. It's all my fault that I can't share more of the burden with you."

Lu Zhiran shook her head, trying to hold back the pain in her heart. She smiled and comforted her mother: "Mother, please don't say that. Yuzhang fought for the country and is the pride of our family. I will protect this home and wait for him to come back."

As the two were talking, there was a sudden noise outside the yard. Lu Zhiran was startled and quickly stood up and walked to the door to check. He saw several neighbors gathered together, pointing and talking about something. Lu Zhiran was suspicious and walked up to ask.

"Miss Zhiran, are you okay? We heard some noise over here just now and were worried that something might have happened to you." A caring neighbor asked with concern.

Lu Zhiran looked at him gratefully and shook his head: "Thank you for your concern, we are fine. It was just a misunderstanding just now."

Seeing Lu Zhiran say this, the neighbors did not ask any more questions. They dispersed one after another, leaving Lu Zhiran standing at the door, but her heart was surging. She knew that although the matter today had been temporarily settled, Mu Qizong would definitely not let it go. She had to think of a way to ensure the safety of her mother and the entire Fu Mansion.
