Chapter 43 Let me talk
Chapter 43 Let me talk for a moment
Lu Rou looked calm, but her tone was full of panic.
She clenched her hands tightly in her sleeves, and stared at the two people talking, venting her anxiety at the moment.
The servant looked at Lu Rou and was quite alert, "Why are you asking about this? Besides, even if our mansion has a concubine, what does it have to do with you?"
Lu Rou was instantly annoyed by the servant's attitude. Just as she was about to start arguing, she was quickly stopped by the maid next to her.
When she returned to her seat, Lu Rou saw that the servant who was still talking had disappeared.
Lu Rou, who had nowhere to vent her anger, could only stare at the maid with dissatisfaction, "Why did you stop me just now?"
You have to know that she is the apple of Brother Yun An's eye. Two servants dared to act presumptuously in front of her. When they enter the mansion one day, she will definitely punish them severely.
"Miss Lu, this is a teahouse after all. If it attracts the attention of others, it will bring unnecessary trouble."
The maid did not dare to offend Lu Rou too much, and explained to her.
Lu Rou snorted coldly, her expression becoming more and more disdainful, "They are just two servants, what's the big deal."
"Did you hear what those two people said just now? Isn't there only one mistress, Xu Yuan, in the Marquis' Mansion? How could a concubine suddenly appear out of thin air?"
Lu Rou originally thought that the position of the concubine might be her, but then she thought that Brother Yun An had said that he would leave the best position for her.
Then this concubine must not be herself. Could it be that in addition to Xu Yuan, there are other women who hooked up with Brother Yun An?
When she thought of this possibility, Lu Rou could no longer suppress her inner anxiety. She had to verify this in person.
"Miss, look, Lu Rou is out."
When the two servants appeared, Xu Yuan and Cui Liu saw all of Lu Rou's actions. Now seeing Lu Rou was about to leave, Cui Liu looked at Xu Yuan and asked if she wanted to do anything.
Xu Yuan stood up, but her emotions did not fluctuate much. When faced with Cui Liu's question, she just said calmly, "Let's go and take a look."
With Lu Rou's personality, she would not just sit there and wait for death. Once she knew about Chun'er's existence, she would definitely turn the whole mansion upside down.
She and Cui Liu followed quietly behind.
Cui Liu looked at the surrounding environment and couldn't help feeling confused, "Miss, why do I feel like this is the way to the Marquis' Mansion?"
"Will Lu Rou want to make trouble directly to the Marquis' Mansion?"
Xu Yuan looked at the figure walking in front and said meaningfully, "What do you think will happen if Lu Rou happens to meet Chun'er?"
"But since Lu Rou is the Marquis's concubine, not many people in the Marquis' Mansion know of her existence, and Chun'er is serving the old lady."
Cui Liu thought for a while, and said to Xu Yuan, "If the two of them were to meet, it might not be an easy thing."
"It's not easy now, but you forgot that there is also Cui'er."
"I understand!"
Cui Liu immediately understood what Xu Yuan meant, patted her chest and assured, "Miss, don't worry, I'll take care of this."
Xu Yuan nodded and pointed in another direction, "There is a shortcut from here that can go directly to the back door of the Marquis' Mansion."
At this time, Lu Rou quickly arrived at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, and the old woman followed Lu Rou all the way, inevitably feeling a little scared.
"Miss Lu, this matter is too strange in my opinion. Why don't you wait for the Marquis to come next time and ask again?"
Lu Rou had been annoyed by the old woman's nagging on the way, and her face was gloomy.
"Shut up!"
"Don't forget that the Marquis sent you to my side to serve me, not to make decisions for me!"
Lu Rou said viciously. Moreover, if the Marquis really wanted to take a concubine, the matter would definitely be kept secret, and she would never know.
If the matter was false, then everyone would be happy, but if it was true, Lu Rou's eyes were full of ruthlessness, and she must find out the woman who seduced Brother Yun An!
Lu Rou was so excited that she came to the outside of the Marquis's mansion regardless of anything. When she was about to go in, she was stopped by the guards.
"Stop, outsiders are not allowed to approach the Marquis's mansion."
"How dare you say I'm an outsider?"
Lu Rou looked ferocious, and angrily said to the guard, "Go find the housekeeper in your mansion, and tell him that my surname is Lu, and ask him to come quickly..."
Before Lu Rou finished speaking, the two guards looked at Lu Rou with doubtful eyes.
"There is no housekeeper in this mansion."
"Impossible!" Lu Rou looked at the plaque, and said angrily after confirming it.
"Don't think you can get rid of me with this reason."
"Miss, the matter has been handled."
Cui Liu quickly returned to Xu Yuan.
Xu Yuan nodded, obviously quite satisfied with Cui Liu's efficiency.
"Miss, I heard from Cui Er that the Marquis is not in the Marquis's mansion now."
While the two were talking, a figure had walked out of the Marquis's mansion.
Chun Er looked around. She had just received news that the Marquis had something important to talk to her about, so she didn't dare to delay for a moment.
But when she arrived at the door of the mansion, Chun Er did not see Shen Yun'an, but saw a woman standing there and not giving up.
"What's going on?"
Chun'er asked the guard over there with doubt.
Seeing that Chun'er was someone close to the old lady and was in charge of the backyard during this period, the guard's attitude was much more gentle.
"Miss Chun'er, this woman said she wanted to see the housekeeper, and she also said she knew the Marquis."
You must know that after the last incident, the housekeeper had been sent to the government, and the Marquis did not allow anyone to mention this matter.
But now a woman suddenly came out and said she wanted to see the Marquis through the housekeeper, which was simply nonsense.
When she heard that it was a woman, Chun'er immediately became alert and looked at Lu Rou calmly.
When she saw her face, she couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis.
This woman looks good.
Could it be that she is the Marquis's admirer outside?
Thinking of this, Chun'er walked forward and asked Lu Rou, "Who are you? Don't you know that the housekeeper has been sent to the government?"
"What, government?"
Lu Rou was obviously stunned when she heard this.
Brother Yun'an told me before that if there was anything missing, just tell the housekeeper directly, and he would do it properly.
But now the housekeeper has been arrested by the government, and Brother Yun'an didn't tell her about this.
Thinking of the conversation she heard in the teahouse, Lu Rou felt a sense of crisis.
The old woman saw that if she continued to make trouble like this, things would only get worse.
If the marquis held her accountable later, she would be the only one who would be punished.
In order to prevent Lu Rou from making trouble further, the old woman took out a silver ingot from her bosom and quietly put it in Chun'er's hand.
"Miss, please excuse me for a moment."
Although Chun'er was shocked by the mother-in-law's behavior, she knew that there was money to be stuffed into her, so she would not miss such a good thing that was delivered to her door and given money
