Chapter 151
"Why not go back?" Xu Yuan said, since the people behind the scenes wanted to use these things to frame her, if she avoided them, it would be exactly what these people wanted.
Seeing Cui Liu's worried expression, Xu Yuan gently comforted her, "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
The next day, Xu Yuan took Cui Liu back to the Marquis' Mansion.
As soon as they arrived at the Marquis' Mansion, they saw the servants around them looking at them with a strange look.
One of the maids whispered, "Madam is back, go and tell the old lady about this."
Cui Liu was about to step forward when she heard this. These people were simply too arrogant, and their attitude did not take their master seriously at all.
Seeing Cui Liu's appearance, the maids around dared not stay any longer, and they all ran away.
Old Madam Shen was helpless about Chun'er's matter. She had finally hoped that the Shen family would have more heirs, but she didn't expect that the good child would be gone.
When Xu Yuan, that vicious woman, comes back this time, she will definitely not forgive her easily!
When Old Lady Shen was angry, she heard a report from outside, "Old Lady, the Madam is back."
Hearing this, Old Lady Shen's expression changed, her face instantly darkened, and she immediately slammed the table and stood up, "Who are you talking about!"
"It's... it's the Madam."
The maid saw Old Lady Shen like this, and couldn't help but feel a little scared.
"This Xu is finally back!"
Old Lady Shen snorted coldly, and led people to Xu Yuan's residence.
After Old Lady Shen left, the news soon reached Lu Rou.
Lu Rou smiled, and was very proud of this. Since Chun'er had a miscarriage, she had finally solved her big worry.
Without a child, let's see how arrogant Chun'er will be in the future.
And how sorry the old lady is now, how angry she will be when she sees Xu Yuan.
It is even possible that she will drive Xu Yuan out of the house in a rage.
"Where did Cui'er get rid of it?"
Lu Rou glanced at the maid beside her and asked suddenly.
The maid lowered her head and did not dare to look up when Lu Rou asked questions.
"Dealt with...dealt with."
Lu Rou smiled with satisfaction after getting the answer. Cui'er was efficient in doing things.
It was a pity that she was timid. If she hadn't threatened with other things, she would have ruined her business long ago.
Such a person would become a hidden danger if she stayed around, so it would be better to kill him as soon as possible.
Lu Rou firmly believed that only dead people would not reveal any of her secrets.
She looked at the maid again and reminded her meaningfully, "You'd better be smart, otherwise Cui'er will end up like this, and you will end up like this in the future."
"If you want to save your life, you have to know what to say and what not to say."
"Yes..."
In Xu Yuan's room, Cui Liu seemed a little uneasy compared to the calmness of the person involved.
Since returning to the Marquis's Mansion, she could feel too many unfriendly eyes, and even more surveillance around the yard.
Her young lady was the mistress of the mansion after all, so what was the big deal at the moment.
"Cui Liu, please sit down and rest first."
Xu Yuan said to Cui Liu.
"Since we are already back here, it's useless to be anxious."
"Miss..."
Cui Liu was about to speak when she heard a call from outside.
"Xu, come out."
Old Madam Shen's voice sounded outside. Cui Liu wanted to go out to check what was going on but was stopped by Xu Yuan.
"Don't pay attention to it." Xu Yuan said lightly, "Cui Liu, have you forgotten what I told you?"
Cui Liu returned to Xu Yuan's side, "I didn't forget."
Old Madam Shen called Xu Yuan many times but no one came out. She couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"Are you sure Xu has returned here?"
Old Madam Shen asked the maid who was serving beside her.
The maid's eyes were also confused, "Old Madam, according to the information I inquired, Madam has indeed returned to the mansion. As for whether she will return to the Marquis' Mansion, this maid can't guarantee it."
Old Madam Shen was dissatisfied with the maid's ambiguous attitude, but since she came out, she would never go back like this.
In response, Old Madam Shen led people directly into the house, but she didn't expect two figures to stand there.
It was Xu Yuan and Cui Liu beside her.
The maidservant following Old Lady Shen showed a shocked expression and said to Xu Yuan, "Madam, you are in this room."
"I thought there was no one here."
Xu Yuan did not reply but just looked at the two of them calmly.
"What do you want?"
"What?"
Old Lady Shen was already angry because Xu Yuan was clearly in the room but pretended to be deaf and dumb when she called him.
Now when she heard Xu Yuan's words, her anger rose even more, and she immediately scolded Xu Yuan, "Xu, since you are back, why don't you even say hello to me at the most basic level!"
"Do you still have me, your mother-in-law, in your heart?"
"Mother-in-law, I will treat you the same way as you treat me."
Xu Yuan said slowly, and did not even stand up when he saw Old Lady Shen.
Old Lady Shen was surprised by Xu Yuan's abnormality. Although Xu Yuan's attitude had become much stronger than before since the birth of the child, he had not yet reached the point of not caring about anything.
When Old Lady Shen was about to teach Xu Yuan a lesson, she saw Lu Rou and others walk in. When she saw the tense atmosphere in the room, she immediately showed a smug smile.
She knew that things would turn out like this.
Based on her understanding of Old Lady Shen, it would be difficult for Xu Yuan to let it go if he didn't get a lesson today.
This is exactly what she wanted to see.
"Madam, how can you talk to the old lady like this? Do you know that if your current attitude is spread out and let others know, it will make people feel unfilial."
Facing Lu Rou's sarcasm, Xu Yuan sneered and asked, "Spread it out?"
"Lu Rou, who do you think will spread it out in the backyard of this marquis' mansion?"
Xu Yuan sighed, and said to Lu Rou in a steady tone, "It's strange to say, the Queen held a hundred flowers banquet in the palace a few days ago, and those ladies actually knew about your existence and Shen Nu."
She said, approaching Lu Rou, "Lu Rou, these things are not something you did on purpose, are they?"
Lu Rou's expression changed, and when she met Xu Yuan's suspicious eyes, she felt a sense of guilt for no reason.
For a moment, she felt that Xu Yuan had seen through everything, and her thoughts were exposed to him without reservation.
She bit her lower lip and tried to hide behind Madam Shen, pretending to be scared.
"Madam, how could you say that? How could I spread these words for no reason?"
"What's more, I am just a concubine. No matter in status or power, I can't compare with you, Madam."
Lu Rou tried to draw the dirty water on Xu Yuan
again. Cui Liu couldn't listen any more. No matter how many things Lu Rou experienced, she never knew what it meant to reflect on herself. She still didn't give up.
Lu Rou kept observing Madam Shen's expression during the process.
