Lu Zhiran agreed with Liu Yun to deliver the finished clothes to Fu's house ten days later, and explained that he would only feel at ease if Liu Yun delivered them personally.

After explaining everything, Lu Zhiran got up and left.

Liu Yun looked at Lu Zhiran's departing back, his heart filled with joy and anticipation.

When Lu Zhiran returned to the mansion, it was already evening. After dinner, she sat alone in the pavilion in the yard to digest her food.

This was the scene Fu Yuzhang saw when he arrived at Lu Zhiran's courtyard.

Because he was going back home, Lu Zhiran was dressed very gorgeously today, which was completely different from his usual simple attire. Moreover, he had just finished dinner, and he looked a little sleepy. He supported his head with his hands, which was shaking from side to side, making him as cute as a napping cat.

Fu Yuzhang's originally depressed and irritable mood surprisingly improved a little.

He had an argument with Lu Zhiran that day, and what he said about not going back home with her was just an angry remark.

After that day, Fu Yuzhang had actually been waiting for Lu Zhiran to come and reconcile with him.

As a result, after waiting for a long time, Lu Zhiran acted as if nothing had happened.

He had changed his clothes this morning and was waiting for Lu Zhiran to call him, but Lu Zhiran actually went back home alone with his maid.

Fu Yuzhang was so angry that he couldn't even eat lunch.

As soon as he heard that Lu Zhiran was back, Fu Yuzhang came over angrily and wanted to cause trouble.

But at this moment... Fu Yuzhang looked at Lu Zhiran, who had not yet noticed him coming, and couldn't help but slow down his pace.

Fu Yuzhang walked closer and saw that Lu Zhiran still didn't notice him.

"cough……."

Lu Zhiran

Lu Zhiran turned around and Fu Yuzhang deliberately turned his head away with an expressionless face.

When Lu Zhiran saw him, his face was indifferent: "My Lord, is there something wrong?"

He seemed to be the only one who was uncomfortable.

Fu Yuzhang felt inexplicably unhappy, and stood there and asked her in a stern tone: "Why didn't you come and call me when you came back home today?"

"Oh... So this is why the Marquis came here."

"But didn't you tell me that day that you wouldn't go back with me?"

Fu Yuzhang was suddenly choked. He didn't expect that even though he had given Lu Zhiran the chance, he was still so tactless.

Lu Zhiran continued, "I was wrong this morning, I'll call you next time."

She didn't ask Fu Yuzhang why he said what he said. Her expression was indifferent, as if this matter was not a big deal to her.

Fu Yuzhang felt extremely depressed.

Then Lu Zhiran sat down again, but did not ask him to sit down.

Fu Yuzhang looked at her with anger and surprise.

On the one hand, he was angry that Lu Zhiran ignored him, and on the other hand, he thought that she would be somewhat unhappy or hurt when she went back alone. But now he didn't expect that she would be so calm.

Lu Zhiran looked back and asked, "Does the Marquis have anything else to say?"

"……fine."

Lu Zhiran stood up and said, "Since there is nothing else, please go back, Lord!"

What is going on with Lu Zhiran?

She had no intention of keeping him at all.

Although Fu Yuzhang was not a very ambitious person, he was a famous handsome man in Beijing and had a noble status. He was loved by everyone wherever he went. He had been raised with a proud and arrogant character since childhood, so he could not stand such indifference.

He snorted coldly, then turned his sleeves and left.

Zixiang, who was watching all this in the house just now, came to Lu Zhiran and complained after seeing Fu Yuzhang leave: "The Marquis is really something. He didn't go back to our young lady's home this morning, and now he's gone right after just coming here."

She didn't know yet that Fu Yuzhang was driven away by her young lady.

Xiaoying said worriedly: "Miss, it's rare for the Marquis to come here, this..."

Lu Zhiran understood her worries. The only person a woman in the inner house could rely on was the one who assisted her in sleeping with him.

This is what she thought at the beginning of her previous life, but later she realized that it is better to rely on herself than on others.

She can firmly sit in the position of Prime Minister's wife.

It's not because of Mu Qizon's conscience, but because he has the leverage over him.

How could Lu Zhiran be so confused in this life again?

But Zixiang and Xiaoying didn't know about these things. Lu Zhiran comforted them gently: "I want to gain a foothold in my husband's family, not relying on my husband."

"Have you two forgotten how I married into the Marquis' Mansion?"

Thinking of this, Zixiang smiled proudly: "Of course, Madam, you have to rely on yourself."

"If it weren't for the kindness of the lady and the good relationship we had, we wouldn't have been able to meet someone as kind as the old lady."

"Even if the Marquis doesn't like the young lady, the Marquis's Mansion will no longer be managed by the young lady."

This is indeed the fact. Currently, the head of the Marquis' Mansion is Old Madam Fu. With the old madam's favor, no matter how much Fu Yuzhang dislikes Lu Zhiran, he has to accept it obediently.

Xiaoying felt a little relieved.

The next day, Lu Zhiran had just returned from paying respects to Madam Fu, and Xiaoying came over to report, "Madam, Zhang wants you to come over."

Zhang, Fu Yuzhang's mother, met her once at Old Madam Fu's place that day, and never saw her again after that.

Because the entire mansion was managed by Old Madam Fu, Zhang had nothing to do on weekdays and was not often at home. Her favorite thing to do was to go out and play cards with her friends.

On that day, Lu Zhiran could clearly feel that Zhang disliked him.

What was the reason for suddenly calling her today?

"Madam, are the two young ladies also at Zhang's place?" Xiaoying reminded.

Lu Zhiran: "I understand."

Fu Baiying and Fu Qingli were also there. Three women who didn't like him all gathered together.

Lu Zhiran had a bad feeling about looking for her at this time.

Never mind. If the enemy comes, we will fight him; if the water comes, we will block it with earth.

Lu Zhiran's eyes were sharp. Let's go and see what they want to do first.

No matter what, the present moment is better than her previous life. Although the interpersonal relationships in the Fu family are complicated, at least life is rich.

Over at the Mu family, they are poor... and have a lot of things to do.

As soon as Lu Zhiran arrived at Ningyuan Hall, he heard bursts of laughter coming from inside.

When Zhang learned that Fu Yuzhang came home alone yesterday, she felt that she was too foolish and did not know how to neglect her husband's heart. As a result, she was teased during the card game with his wife and lost face.

So when Zhang saw Lu Zhiran, her face looked very unhappy.

When Lu Zhiran stood there to pay her respects to Zhang, Fu Baiying and Fu Qingli were talking to each other and ignored her.

Let her stand there alone.

After chatting with Fu Baiying and Fu Qingli for nearly an incense stick of time, Zhang deliberately looked at Lu Zhiran.

"Lu Zhiran, you are here."

"I was having a great time chatting just now, I didn't hear you, look at you kid, why don't you speak louder?"

Over the years, Zhang had learned the torture methods used by the ladies in the capital, but her husband died early and there were no concubines at home for her to practice on. She had nowhere to put her skills to use before. Now that Lu Zhiran was here, he just happened to use her to practice.

After that, Zhang asked in a very kind manner: "Lu Zhiran, kid, why did you go home alone yesterday?"

"You should have asked Zhang'er to go back with you! It's ridiculous for you to go back alone!"
