Chapter 695 Lu Xiaohong is here again
He Lin took twenty taels of silver ingots and happily left the main house in the front yard with his wife Lin.
Gu Yunxi smiled and shook his head, then ordered Mo San to take out all the reward money prepared for other servants in the mansion and call them to come and claim it.
Mrs. Qiu and Mrs. Dong had lived in the He Mansion before and occasionally received rewards from the He Mansion, so when they heard that the young lady allowed them to receive the rewards, although they were happy, they were not too excited.
Until they received their reward, they were very excited when they saw the silver ingots weighing ten taels each in their hands.
"Mrs. Qiu, this, I have never held a silver ingot weighing ten taels in my life!" Mrs. Dong said with excitement and tears in her eyes.
Mrs. Qiu also held a silver ingot tightly in her hand and nodded: "Who said it wasn't? Our young lady is very generous."
"It's worth it even if we die to meet such a good master!"
Mrs. Qiu had lost her family long ago. She had lived in the Lu family for more than a year and had already regarded the Lu family as her own home and her only destination.
Even if Gu Yunxi didn't give her any reward, she would still be loyal and do her job well.
Everyone in the Lu family received a reward of silver, with ordinary servants receiving ten taels each and the housekeeper receiving twenty taels.
Somehow, everyone in the village knew that the Lu family treated their servants very well and gave them rewards of hundreds of taels of silver. They were envious and jealous.
The news reached Jihu Town and reached Lu Xiaohong's ears.
Lu Xiaohong looked at her tattered clothes, a calculating look flashed in her eyes, she gritted her teeth, picked up Xu Xiaobao from the bed and walked out.
She returned to Xijiang Village and stood in front of the Lu family's house again.
Lu Xiaohong pushed the door open with her hands and said, "Mrs. Qiu, tell my elder brother and his wife that I'm back. They will definitely want to see me."
Mrs. Qiu stood at the inside of the door, looking at Lu Xiaohong with annoyance, and said lightly: "My young mistress has instructed that you have nothing to do with our family from now on, so don't come again."
Lu Xiaohong would never listen to such words. Instead, she yelled at Aunt Qiu: "Aunt Qiu, are you lying to me? My eldest brother and I are siblings. We have the same blood. How can we just say it doesn't matter?"
"You mean slave, are you deliberately making things difficult for me? You just can't bear to see me have an easy life, right?"
She shouted at the top of her lungs, as if the louder she spoke, the more right she would be.
Mrs. Qiu was too lazy to pay attention to her. She slammed the door shut, locking Lu Xiaohong and Xu Xiaobao out.
Lu Xiaohong was so angry that she jumped up and down, pointing at the door and cursing, saying all kinds of nasty things. The villagers who passed by Lu's house saw her and pointed fingers at her.
Mrs. Qiu stood at the side of the door and listened for a while. The more she listened, the angrier she became. After thinking for a while, she walked directly into the house and reported to Gu Yunxi: "Madam, Lu Xiaohong came. I didn't let her in, and she cursed at the door."
Gu Yunxi was smiling and holding her son's hand, helping him walk. When she heard what Mrs. Qiu said, she was startled and said, "I know."
"Mrs. Qiu, go inform my parents and Ah Chuan, and ask Xiao Cui and He Lin's wife to come over and look after Brother Kai and the others."
Mrs. Qiu nodded quickly and went out. Soon, He Lin's wife and Xiao Cui came over and helped look after the three brothers. Gu Yunxi took Mrs. Qiu out.
When they went out, He Feng and Old Man Lu had already gone out and were confronting Lu Xiaohong at the door. Lu Xiaohong looked unhappy.
"Brother, am I not your biological sister? It's New Year's Day, what's wrong with me going back to my parents' home to visit relatives? Why do you, my brother and sister-in-law, treat me so badly?" Lu Xiaohong felt aggrieved and glared at He Feng and Old Man Lu.
He Feng was almost disgusted by her sister-in-law's shamelessness. She didn't want to say a word to her and looked at her coldly. But it was Old Man Lu who spoke.
"Xiao Hong, I remember telling you very clearly before that we no longer have any relationship. My sister died a long time ago, and you are not."
Father Lu looked at her with disgust and continued, "Before, I felt sorry for you, so I stood up for you and let you divorce Xu Wei. Now, you have fallen into depravity and returned to the Xu family. You can't blame others."
"Don't think we don't know about the good things you did behind our backs!"
When Lu Xiaohong heard this, she shrank back in fear. Her plan to steal things from the Lu family, which she had discussed with Xu Wei before, was finally exposed.
Gu Yunxi, this bitch, actually told everything to her father-in-law and mother-in-law! Lu Xiaohong resented Gu Yunxi and cried to Old Man Lu, "Brother, Xu Wei forced me to do this! I don't want to do this!"
"If it weren't for Xiaobao, I would never be with a scumbag like Xu Wei. Brother, believe me, I am your biological sister."
Lu Xiaohong even shed a few tears and looked somewhat pitiful.
However, Father Lu and He Feng were not moved at all. Instead, they looked at him coldly and scolded him, "What kind of person are you? What does it have to do with us?"
"Hurry up and leave. It's New Year's Day and you're crying at our doorstep. That's really unlucky." He Feng also cursed.
Lu Xiaohong was stunned, not knowing whether she should cry or yell to let her elder brother and sister-in-law know how powerful she was.
However, before she could open her mouth to speak, a large basin of smelly water was poured directly on her, leaving her unable to speak.
"Oh, isn't this Lu Xiaohong? I thought it was some blind person crying at my door. It's New Year's Day, so unlucky!" Gu Yunxi smiled, holding a wooden basin in his hand.
It took Lu Xiaohong a long time to recover. She wiped her face with her hand and turned around to find that it was Gu Yunxi who splashed water on her. She was so angry that she was shaking all over. She immediately rushed over to beat Gu Yunxi.
"You bitch, you actually dared to splash water on me, and such dirty water at that. I will tear your devilish face to pieces."
Lu Xiaohong was so angry that she put Lu Xiaobao down and slapped Gu Yunxi in the face.
Gu Yunxi's expression tensed. He was prepared and dodged, causing Lu Xiaohong to miss and hit the door sill heavily, almost fainting from the pain.
She cried loudly, attracting many villagers to stop and watch.
The village chief and his wife also rushed over. When they saw that it was Lu Xiaohong who was causing trouble, they started to scold her harshly.
"Lu Xiaohong, why are you coming to our Xijiang Village to make trouble during the New Year? Get out of here now!" the village chief said unhappily.
Lu Xiaohong had tried to steal things from the Lu family before, but was discovered by Gu Yunxi, who then told him about it. Gu Yunxi also said that from then on, the Lu family would no longer care about Lu Xiaohong's life or death.
A few days ago, Lu Xiaohong came back to Xijiang Village every now and then, but when she saw that the Lu family was not there, she had to give up and returned to the Xu family in the town, where she lived an unclear life with Xu Wei.
At this time, she discovered that the Lu family had returned and were sticking to her like a dog-skin plaster. Anyone with a discerning eye would know what he was planning.
The village chief was extremely disdainful of such behavior and was even less likely to help Lu Xiaohong.
Lu Xiaohong was so angry that her lips trembled: "How could you do this to me?"
