Reborn to be married, the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion is so sweet
Chapter 70: Beating and Aftermath
Lin Wan looked at their expressions with a faint smile, lowered her head and straightened her sleeves. After a moment, she looked up at Lu Tingxu, "How does the prince want me to help you?"
"They now think that our mansion looks down on them and deliberately humiliates them. The young lady from Censor Lu's family even said that she would let Censor Lu report us. So..."
Lu Tingxu glanced at Lin Wan with some shame. Seeing that she lowered her head and said nothing, he could only silently continue: "Can you send someone to give gifts to each of their houses and explain it to them?"
"You know, my parents are both recuperating at the farm right now. If this matter gets out of hand, they will definitely be angry again if they find out."
"Your Highness, do you want me to take charge of this matter and keep it a secret from my parents?"
Lu Tingxu was almost crippled by her gaze, and nodded after a while. "All expenses, including the losses caused by the renovation and closure of the silk shop for the past month, will be deducted from my monthly salary. And then, I will no longer interfere in the affairs of the mansion, including the shops outside. Do you think this is okay?"
When Lin Wan heard this, she knew that this was the most realistic guarantee Lu Tingxu could give now, and it was exactly the result she wanted.
Lu Tingxu had spent all his previous savings, and now he no longer had the subsidy from the Xiao family. He had to use his original monthly allowance of 100 taels to make up for this shortfall. He would not receive any money from home for the next year.
Yan Liu did not officially become a concubine, and did not receive any monthly allowance. It would depend on how the two of them would live in the future.
Love needs the support of money. Without money, how can there be romance, how can you go out for fun, and how can you make friends?
As the saying goes, ordinary couples have many sorrows. This is very true, but people always sing the praises of the nobility of love without actually experiencing it.
Lin Wan also wanted to teach Lu Tingxu and Yan Liu a lesson in this matter. Yan Liu has been making trouble in the mansion these days. If her arrogance is not curbed, she will cause trouble for herself next.
Moreover, after this farce, the outside world's comments on Yan Liu have become even worse. It is estimated that she can only stay in the mansion honestly in the future. It is impossible for her to go out and socialize with Lu Tingxu as often as before.
Although Lin Wan didn't care about Lu Tingxu, she was still unhappy about a woman with no status at all socializing with people outside all day long as the wife of the prince.
"Since the prince has spoken, let's do as he wishes." Lin Wan looked at Qing Lian who was standing beside her, "Go and tell the butler to prepare a few gifts from the storehouse. You can personally take people to deliver them to each family to express your apology."
"Yes, young lady."
"That Miss Lu, her gift should be three times more generous. This was our negligence, but it was definitely not intentional disrespect. Please forgive her."
After Qinglian left, Lin Wan also stood up. "I think there is nothing for me to do here, so I will go back first. I will continue to pay attention to the following matters. If necessary, I will come to your house in person."
Lu Tingxu looked at Lin Wan who had stood up. Seeing that she had maintained a gentle and calm expression, he opened his mouth and finally said, "Thank you for your help."
Today's incident had nothing to do with Lin Wan from beginning to end, but in the end she had to apologize to others and clean up the mess.
Moreover, even though she was wronged, she did not feel any resentment. She was even willing to go to his house in person to apologize for him, just to preserve his and the Marquis's family's reputation.
Lin Wan has done so much, and Lu Tingxu is extremely grateful to her.
"You and I are husband and wife, we are one and the same, how can it be troublesome!" Lin Wan said with a faint smile.
After saying this, she left with her maid.
After Lin Wan left the yard, Yan Liu, who had been sitting silently, raised her head and snorted in dissatisfaction: "What do you mean by one heart and one mind? Who is one heart and one mind with her?"
Lu Tingxu was no longer in the mood to coax her at this time, and didn't even want to say a word.
I just feel that why there is such a big difference between people. Since Lin Wan married into the Marquis's Mansion, I have never treated her kindly, but she has no complaints. She manages the mansion in an orderly manner to make her parents feel at ease. She also disregards her own face and status and humbles herself to help him solve his problems.
But what about Yan Liu? He gave all his love to her, and she was the one who caused the trouble. She didn't show any gratitude for his help, and she was even jealous and said sour words here.
At this moment, Lu Tingxu suddenly felt that this woman who was once unique in his eyes and a close friend who understood his heart was now slowly becoming more and more vulgar. She no longer had the dazzling light that she had when they first met.
"Lu Tingxu, say something!" Yan Liu looked at him with a pout.
Lu Tingxu didn't respond at all, and Yan Liu felt even more aggrieved.
She felt that she had suffered a great injustice today. The clothing store that she had been preparing for for so long ended before it even started, and she was scolded by a group of feudal women. Now she was asking Lin Wan for help, which made her lose face greatly.
And now Lu Tingxu is just daydreaming and doesn't even come to comfort me. It's really too much!
The two of them just stared at each other and started a cold war for no apparent reason.
On the other side, Qinglian quickly prepared a list of gifts. Because Lu Tingxu said that it would all be deducted from his monthly allowance, Lin Wan had no reluctance at all and generously prepared generous gifts for each family.
When Qinglian came back after running a circle, each family accepted gifts, indicating that the matter was over.
Seeing that the matter was resolved, Lin Wan heaved a sigh of relief. The women who went to the store today were probably from families with low official positions, and they were originally trying to curry favor with Lu Tingxu, so when Lin Wan sent someone to deliver a generous gift to express her apology, no one wanted to hold on to it.
But no one knows who spread the news about the styles of the clothes in the store today, and the fact that she came from a brothel, many people outside began to talk about it with exaggeration.
She was born in a brothel and has little knowledge. Even after entering the Marquis's Mansion, she only has those ideas that are immoral and want to harm the women of other good families. I guess she used to seduce men like this, so she can seduce the Marquis's son.
The shocking boasts that the young masters had made when praising her before suddenly disappeared. No one talked about what a remarkable woman she was anymore. Instead, they began to tease him in front of Lu Tingxu, asking him whether Yan Liu wore those seductive clothes for him to see every day.
As a result, for a long time afterwards, Lu Tingxuou didn't want to go out and see anyone. All day long, he either played with Yanliu in his yard, or went to Chunfeng to enjoy her tenderness and kindness.
After a long time, he found that because of the lack of monthly wages, the quality of life of him and Yanliu began to decline.
Although there were food and drinks at the mansion, they were all served upon request. It was not like before when he could order whatever he wanted. Now if he wanted to add something that was not included in the ration, he had to pay for it.
But his share had to be shared with Yan Liu, which seemed a little insufficient.
