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

"My dear child, I regret it so much now. I shouldn't have let you go to the manor by yourself. If anything happened to you, I would be so sorry for you!"

Although Madam Fu had her own plans for Lu Zhiran, she was genuinely worried about him, so everything she said was true.

Seeing how worried Madam Fu was, Lu Zhiran hesitated for a moment. Finally, she told the old lady everything about her encounter with the bandits.

Of course, Lu Zhiran did not mention the man in black who saved her.

After all, it's late at night, and men and women should be more cautious with each other.

What's more, although Madam Fu was worried about her, she was Fu Yuzhang's biological grandmother after all. If she thought too much, she would be finished.

After listening to Lu Zhiran's story, Mrs. Fu was silent for a while. Her face showed a complex expression, both relieved and worried.

"Ran'er, you must be careful in the future." Madam Fu said earnestly, "This world is full of unknowns and dangers. You did a good job last night. You must learn to protect yourself in the future."

"Grandma, I just can't understand why there were bandits on the official road last night? And the servants you brought with you were all strong and healthy."

"At the critical moment, they all died. It's very strange. Logically speaking, even if they were there, they wouldn't die so quickly after encountering the bandits. I didn't give them anything to eat during this process."

"Do you think this was planned by someone?"

Madam Fu listened to Lu Zhiran's analysis and nodded.

"I also think this is probably man-made, but... there is no possibility that someone would plot against or take advantage of our family, let alone you..."

There was really nothing about Lu Zhiran that was worth making a fuss about or scheming against.

"Zhi Ran, don't worry, grandma won't let you suffer in vain. Grandma will arrange for someone to investigate this matter. If it is really man-made, grandma will make the decision for you."

Hearing what Madam Fu said, Lu Zhiran nodded.

"Thank you, grandma." Lu Zhiran said softly, her eyes firm and bright. Old Madam Fu looked at her granddaughter-in-law and liked her more and more.

"Did Fu Yuzhang secretly make a calming soup for you last night?"

Lu Zhiran: "Ah?"

Lu Zhiran was a little confused, "He personally cooked the calming soup for me."

Madam Fu nodded with a smile and touched Lu Zhiran's hand.

"Yes! Zhiran, grandma has never seen that boy so sincere to anyone. Believe me, grandma, Yuzhang definitely has feelings for you. You, your blessings are yet to come!"

"Zhiran, although Fu Yuzhang is a shabby guy and is very fond of women, he has one thing that others cannot compare to, and that is that he treats people sincerely..."

Old Madam Fu talked a lot.

But Lu Zhiran's thoughts drifted away quietly.

It turned out that the calming soup was cooked by Fu Yuzhang himself. No wonder it was so bitter and hard to drink.

She said she had drunk this calming soup before, so why did it taste so weird?

"Husband, do you think this house is beautiful?"

Lu Nianyao looked at Mu Qizon expectantly.

She, Mu Qizon, and Mu's mother were standing in front of the door of their new house in the suburbs of Beijing. Looking at the vermilion gate and the exquisite eaves, Lu Nianyao's heart was filled with joy.

Of course, in addition to joy, there is also pain.

This house almost exhausted her dowry for her marriage to Mu Qizon.

But looking at such a big house, Lu Nianyao felt that it was all right.

After all, this is her and Mu Qizon’s new home and the starting point of their future life.

Moreover, the most important point is that Lu Nianyao believes that this house is only a temporary transition. When Mu Qizon takes part in the imperial examinations and becomes an official in the future, he will live in a better and bigger house.

By then, her current investment will be repaid a thousand times by Mu Qi Zong in the future.

Mu Qi Zong looked at Lu Nian Yao's expectant expression, but he was actually not in a very good mood.

Mu Qizon is talented, but also very arrogant.

He believed that with his ability, it would not be a problem for him to take part in the imperial examinations, and when he became an official, he would have a good place to live. Even if Lu Nian Yao did not buy it, he would own a house like this sooner or later.

Now that Lu Nianyao had bought it in advance, he had firmly established the reputation of being a gigolo in front of his classmates.

How can he hold his head up high when interacting with his classmates like this?

How could Mu Qi Zong be happy?

Having lived in the Mu family's shabby house for more than ten years, Lu Nianyao had to buy this house immediately as there was no time limit.

And he didn't even discuss it with me. He just bought the house, which was such a huge expense.

By the time Mu Qi Zong found out, everything was over.

Do you really despise his family’s poverty?

But Mu Qizong always kept everything to himself. Thinking that he would be able to use the Lu family in the future, Mu Qizong could only suppress his impatience. He gently held Lu Nianyao's hand and smiled tenderly, "Yao'er, this house is great. I like it very much."

Mu's mother also nodded and agreed: "Yes, the house that Yaoer picked is really good. The environment is quiet and not far from the capital. It is really a good place to live."

Hearing the praise from the two, Lu Nianyao's joy became even stronger.

I just felt like I did the right thing.

"It's just that Yao'er, the imperial examination is coming up, and I have to prepare seriously for it. I'm afraid that if I start preparing to move, I won't have enough time to do my homework."

"Why don't we move after the exams are over?"

Mu Qizong tried to discuss it, but Lu Nianyao rejected it outright.

"Don't worry, mother and I will take care of everything. You don't need to do anything. It's just a move. There's nothing in the house. We can just buy new furniture when the time comes."

Even though his proposal was rejected, Mu Qi Zong did not get angry and continued speaking patiently.

"This house is very big. It must have cost you a lot of money. If you buy furniture, I'm afraid your dowry won't be enough."

Mu Qi Zong reminded gently.

In his opinion, it would be best to wait until after the exams to move.

Otherwise, I would go to private school with my classmates every day and know that he spent his wife's money to buy a house.

It would be strange if you don't laugh your head off by then.

"Don't worry, my mother loves me very much. If the dowry is not enough, I can ask my mother to support me when the time comes."

My proposals were rejected again and again.

Mu Qizon's face looked a little bad.

It's just that he is a very tolerant person, so most people can't see the real changes in his emotions.

Lu Nianyao looked at the house in front of her, still full of fantasies.

It was Mu's mother who knew her son better and saw that something was wrong with Mu Qizong...
