"Father, mother, it's no use blaming each other now. We should find a way to make amends and try to save the Fu family's reputation."

Lu Yunqi's voice was calm and firm, and his words calmed the two people who were originally blaming each other down a little.

Mr. Lu looked at his son, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes.

At this critical moment, Lu Yunqi was still able to remain so calm and rational, which really lived up to his painstaking efforts. Lu Yunqi was still able to remain calm, and he, as a father, could not lose to his son. Master Lu took a deep breath, tried to calm himself down, and nodded.

"Yun Qi is right. The most important thing now is to save the Fu family's reputation."

Although Mr. Lu's face still looked a little bad, he was much calmer than before.

Mother Lu also realized the seriousness of the problem. She stopped arguing with Father Lu and sat quietly aside, following Lu Yunqi's arrangements.

Lu Yunqi took a deep breath and began to think of countermeasures.

Suddenly his eyes fell on Mu Qizon, who was quietly lowering his presence.

Today is the wedding day of Lu Nianyao and Mu Qizon, and the focus of the banquet should be on them.

Lu Yunqi picked up the wine glass and said loudly to everyone: "Today is the wedding day of my sister Lu Nianyao and Mu Qizong. Thank you all relatives and friends for coming to congratulate."

"I want to pay tribute to my brother-in-law here. May they live happily together forever!"

Mu Qizon was stunned for a moment. He had just sobered up, why was he drunk again?

But Lu Yunqi raised his wine glass and looked at him with a smile.

No matter how reluctant Mu Qizon was, he had to stand up, pick up the wine glass and drink with Lu Yunqi.

"Brother-in-law, Qi Zong has already drunk a lot of wine. If he drinks any more, the bride won't be married tonight."

Lu Yunqi clicked his tongue.

"Alas...brother-in-law, that's wrong. It's still a long time before you take my sister home. A man can't say he's not capable. You have to drink this wine with me today."

"One more drink!"

As soon as Lu Yunqi finished speaking, warm applause and cheers rang out in the courtyard.

Mu Qizon really wanted to curse in his heart.

Just now, a bunch of Lu family’s relatives forced him to drink. Why are they coming again now?

I don’t know. Aren’t those scholars good at drinking?

But Lu Yunqi looked so strong that Mu Qizon had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue pouring himself a glass.

After three rounds of drinks, the atmosphere became increasingly heated.

The elders of the Lu family congratulated Mu Qizong one after another. Some of them also shared interesting stories from their youth and their married life, making the atmosphere on the scene more relaxed and pleasant.

Under the influence of alcohol, everyone seemed to have temporarily forgotten the unpleasant things that had just happened.

But this is a tough time for Mu Qizon.

After Lu Yunqi finished drinking with him, his brothers continued to try to clear up the quarrel between Fu Yuzhang and Lu Zhiran.

He will pay for the mistakes made by Fu Yuzhang.

The more you think about it, the more frustrated you feel, right?

……

The carriage was completely silent, with only the sound of the carriage moving and the curtains gently rustling in the night breeze.

Fu Yuzhang sat on one side, his hands still folded across his chest, as if refusing to communicate with anyone. His face was very gloomy and his brows were tightly furrowed, as if Lu Zhiran had done something to offend him.

At first, when Lu Zhiran saw Fu Yuzhang so angry, thinking that he had just sought justice for himself from Lu's father and mother at the banquet, he tried to break the silence and coax Fu Yuzhang.

Lu Zhiran coughed lightly, trying to attract Fu Yuzhang's attention.

But Fu Yuzhang seemed not to hear it and was still immersed in his own world.

When Lu Zhiran saw this, he knew that he was deliberately making fun of Qiao.

The anger in her heart slowly rose.

Wasn't it just that he was talking to Mu Qizong, and then he didn't stand on his side when he was talking to Lu's father and mother? Is there any need to be so petty!

Act like he doesn't care about anyone.

Lu Zhiran didn't want to coax him anymore, so who cares!

Anyway, Fu Yuzhang will find some fun ways to cheer himself up and he will be fine in a while.

The carriage was moving slowly on the official road, but the atmosphere inside the carriage seemed a little subtle.

Lu Zhiran sat in a corner of the carriage and took out a box of biscuits and a water bag from the compartment of the cabinet on the carriage. She prepared these specially because she was afraid that she would get hungry while riding in the carriage.

Lu Zhiran savored the biscuits in his hand and took a sip of the water in the water bag from time to time, his face filled with satisfaction and ease.

Her action was like throwing a small stone into a tranquil lake, breaking the original tranquility in the carriage.

Fu Yuzhang originally planned to maintain a cold expression, trying to make Lu Zhiran anxious and uncomfortable.

However, as time went on, he found that he was the one who was suffering.

How can Lu Zhiran have such a good attitude!

And he is already angry, isn't she anxious?

This woman is here to defeat me.

Why was he so angry while Lu Zhiran could still entertain himself? Why was she smiling happily with other men while she had to endure it? He was the dignified Marquis Fu, who wouldn't respect him when he went out?

Fu Yuzhang was venting his anger in his heart.

……

The afterglow of dusk filled the courtyard, and the golden light filtered through the treetops, casting patches of light on the bluestone slabs.

The carriage that Lu Zhiran and Fu Yuzhang were riding in slowly stopped in front of the mansion. The friction sound of the wheels against the stone slabs was particularly clear in the silent air.

Because of the anger he had just shown in the carriage, after arriving at the door, Lu Zhiran got off the carriage with the help of Zixiang without saying a word to Fu Yuzhang.

Walk forward without saying a word.

Her figure looked particularly cold in the setting sun.

She ignored him and didn't say anything to him.

Lu Zhiran and Fu Yuzhang walked into the mansion one after another. Fu Yuzhang's face was ashen, and it was obvious that he had been pent up with anger.

"Madam, the Marquis..."

Fu Yuzhang's expression was too ugly. Zixiang reminded Lu Zhiran in a low voice, "Do you want to invite the Marquis back to the courtyard for dinner?"

Seeing this, Fu Yuzhang was also waiting for Lu Zhiran's answer.

He thought that if Lu Zhiran invited him, he would go there reluctantly.

But Lu Zhiran said nothing, his face was cold, and he shook his head at Zixiang, indicating that he didn't want to invite Fu Yuzhang over.

She walked straight to her room, seemingly not intending to respond to Fu Yuzhang's anger.

Seeing this, Fu Yuzhang finally burst out with the anger he had been holding back all the way.

He took a few steps forward, carried Lu Zhiran on his shoulders, and ran through the courtyard like a gust of wind.

"Fu Yuzhang, what are you doing? Put me down!" Lu Zhiran exclaimed. She didn't expect Fu Yuzhang to suddenly lift her up. She struggled to break free from Fu Yuzhang's restraints.
