Reborn to be married, the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion is so sweet

When they arrived at Xiao's yard, Xiao was packing her luggage. Seeing Lin Wan coming over, she pulled her to sit on the couch and handed the luggage to Mama Gao and several maids to pack.

"Is mother getting ready to go out?"

"Yes, I'll tell you when we have dinner tonight." Xiao smiled excitedly, "When the Marquis left this morning, he said that there was nothing important happening in the court recently. The emperor also heard about the last time the palace looked for a doctor. He sympathized with the Marquis' poor health and approved his leave. So we plan to stay at the manor together tomorrow."

As he spoke, he took Lin Wan's hand and patted it gently, "Now that you are in charge of all the affairs in this mansion, I won't worry about it. You can make your own decisions if there is anything. Don't worry, I will take care of it for you if anything goes wrong!"

Lin Wan looked at her happy face and turned the matter of Lu Tingxu over and over in her mind. She didn't know how to start the conversation for a while, for fear of affecting Xiao's mood.

Seeing that she seemed to be worried, Xiao paused and said, "I didn't ask you, why did you come here today when you usually deal with government affairs at this time of day? What happened?"

Lin Wan thought that she would not be able to hide it even if she wanted to after Lu Tingxu brought the person back, so she stopped worrying about it. She nodded, looked at Xiao and said softly, "Just now, the prince sent Ming Mo back to take out 10,000 taels of silver from my daughter-in-law."

"Ten thousand taels? What does he need so much silver for?"

"The prince... the prince redeemed a girl in Hongxiu Pavilion."

"What?" Xiao's face changed.

She didn't care much about money, after all, the last thing a family like her lacked was money. But Lu Tingxu spent 10,000 taels of silver on a prostitute, wasn't that just being rich and stupid?

"What's going on? Hasn't he been in a state of depression recently?" Xiao said sarcastically.

Lin Wan was silent for a moment. "Ever since Miss Ye's incident, the prince has lost interest in anything. Later, he got better and went out to play with his friends again. I didn't ask much. Only after Mingmo came back today did I know that the prince has been living in Hongxiu Pavilion."

"What's up with that girl?"

"That girl is said to be a remarkable woman, with a very different view on things. So... someone was deliberately looking for trouble, so the prince stepped in to help."

"Oh, what a powerful prince! He spent 10,000 taels just for a girl."

Xiao resisted the urge to scold him. After all, he was her son. If there wasn't only one successor in the mansion, she really wanted him to get lost.

I just suffered a loss, but I didn't learn any lesson. He found a new lover so soon. If he didn't look too much like Marquis Lu, Xiao would have suspected that the child was swapped.

"Tell him that if you redeem him, it's like saving a life. But if you want to bring the person back, you're dreaming!" Xiao said coldly.

"Mother." Lin Wan personally brought a cup of tea to Xiao.

"I know that mother hopes that the prince can be a loyal and upright man like the marquis. But you saw what happened last time. The prince is a gentle and affectionate person."

"what do you mean?"

Lin Wan said calmly, "Last time, we sent Miss Ye away without telling the prince, which made him sad for a long time. He even had a grudge against you and the Marquis, which made me feel very sorry. I know mother is doing this for my own good, but to be honest, I care more about the harmony of our family."

Xiao looked at Lin Wan lovingly, this sensible, considerate and filial child. She was just being nice to her, and she cared about the old couple with all her heart. How could her son be blind to such a good girl?

Lin Wan continued seriously, "Mother, just go to the manor with father to recuperate. Don't worry, even if the prince brings the people back, I will definitely take care of everything in the mansion!"

"Silly child...you have been wronged!"

"Mom, I'm not wronged. You don't know how much everyone envies me for having such a good mother-in-law like you!"

"Forget it, I don't care anymore. I can't control him." Xiao sighed, shook her head and stopped talking.

When Lu Tingxu came back in the evening, he thought that what was waiting for him in the mansion was the anger and various punishments of Marquis Lu and Xiao.

But he didn't expect that everything in the mansion was normal, as if nothing had happened. He came to the main courtyard in disbelief, and as soon as he entered, he saw large and small boxes and luggage piled up in the yard.

Startled, Lu Tingxu hurried into the room and saw Marquis Lu and Xiao sitting on the main seats, with Lin Wan sitting on the side. The three of them were talking and laughing. When they saw him come in, they all stopped talking. Xiao glanced at him and turned away without saying anything. Only Lin Wan stood up and called out.

Lu Tingxu nodded to Lin Wan and asked Xiao, "Mom, what's the matter with the luggage in your yard?"

Xiao took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Your father and I are going to stay at the manor for a while tomorrow."

Lu Tingxu was a little surprised, "Why so sudden?"

"Your Majesty, please understand. Both of us are in poor health. There are many things to do in the palace. We should go to the manor to relax and have some peace and quiet."

Hearing this, Lu Tingxu blushed. Thinking of what he had done before, he dared not say anything more.

Seeing him like this, Lord Lu got angry. "Why are you like this? I heard you brought people back again!"

"Yes, Yan Liu was bullied. Those people went too far..."

Before Lu Tingxu could finish his words, Marquis Lu threw a tea bowl at him, "What a great prince who is willing to help others when seeing injustice! You will be a laughing stock in the capital tomorrow! Ten thousand taels of silver to redeem a prostitute, it seems that you are the one who calls the shots in this mansion now!"

Hearing this, Lin Wan also quickly stood up and stood beside Lu Tingxu. Lu Tingxu glanced at her and scolded, "Why are you pretending! I asked you to take the money, but you turned around and complained to your parents, and now you are still pretending to be innocent!"

"Why are you scolding Wan'er!" Xiao was so angry at his words that she stepped forward and pulled Lin Wan to her side. "I think your eyes are blind now. Wan'er is thinking about you wholeheartedly and has been speaking good words for you in front of me today. You...you..."

Lu Tingxu looked at Lin Wan, who lowered her head and said nothing, in surprise. She didn't complain? He had wronged her. Thinking back to the time when Lin Wan married him, she really listened to him in everything and never quarreled with him. Whether it was before or today when Ming Mo was sent back to get the banknotes, she seemed to have never been angry.

I had wronged her. Thinking of this, Lu Tingxu felt a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Dad, Yan Liu is a poor person. She didn't want to be sold to a brothel, but she has always been strong and independent in such an environment. I admire her very much!"

"Admiration? Oh, your admiration is to bring her back as your concubine?"

Hearing his mother's ridicule, Lu Tingxu got a little angry and immediately raised his head and said, "I like her and want her to be with me, what's wrong? Mom, why do you have to make things difficult for me? I just want the person I like to be with me, why do you always make things difficult for me!"

"I have brought Yanliu back. This time, I must keep her here!"

Lu Tingxu looked at the people in the room and said without question.
