Chapter 319 The elders didn’t show off their power
"Hey, look at her, she's so poor..."
One of the ladies pointed at the table in front of Lu Shian, and saw that a lot of sunflower seeds on the table had been eaten.
Everyone present covered their mouths and chuckled.
Lu Shian rolled his eyes at them: "Why? Don't you eat food? Have you all grown up starving? Or are you not satisfied with the food prepared by the princess, so you don't want to eat it?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone who had been laughing just now immediately stopped laughing.
The Princess's Mansion would naturally not neglect them, and the food prepared was exquisite and delicious.
None of these mattered. What mattered was that the eldest princess was not someone they could afford to offend!
"Laugh, why aren't you laughing? Are you born not to laugh? Keep laughing!"
Liu Rulan glared at Lu Shian: "He is indeed a sharp-tongued person!"
"Thank you so much! How can I compare with Miss Liu? A sharp tongue can never compare with a vicious mind!"
Liu Rulan was laughing smugly when she heard the first half of the sentence, but she couldn't laugh at the second half: "Lu Shian, you don't know how to respect your elders. Today I will teach you a lesson. Someone, come and slap me in the face."
The two maids behind her came out immediately. How could Lu Shian accept a beating obediently? Before the two maids could touch her, she slapped them twice.
"roll."
Like master, like servant. These two maids followed their master and bullied others a lot. They thought today would be the same as before and they would just teach the ignorant ones a lesson. But who knew that Lu Shian raised his hand and rewarded them first.
The two people were stunned by Lu Shian's slap. They covered their faces and looked at Lu Shian in disbelief. They were from the Duke's Mansion, how dare she...
"Didn't you hear me? Get out of here!"
Lu Shian glared at them fiercely, and the two maids finally reacted: "How dare you fight back."
Before Lu Shian could make a move, Lu'er behind her came up and slapped the two girls again: "Didn't you understand what my young lady said? Get out of here now."
"You're a traitor, you're a traitor. You actually dared to hit my people, Lu Shian. I won't let you off today. Go, call Ada to me."
One of the maids who was beaten responded and turned to run out, but Lu'er was one step faster than her, blocked her way, and slapped the maid to the ground: "How dare you call for help."
Lu'er was a martial artist. She knocked the little maid to the ground, and the little maid staggered to her feet.
"You, I am from the Duke's Mansion. If you dare to hit me like this, it means you don't respect my young lady and you don't respect the Duke's Mansion." This little maid was also smart and knew how to divert the trouble.
Liu Rulan was so angry that she yelled at the maids around her, "What are you guys still looking at? Come on, I'm going to smash her face today."
Lu Shian looked at the jumping Liu Rulan and was not afraid at all. She laughed and said, "I advise you not to do anything. You know I'm from the country. Country people are strong. If you get beaten and suffer a loss, and it gets out that you are a bunch of losers, it will be a great disgrace."
A few people who had originally planned to take action immediately became obedient after hearing what Lu Shian said.
Liu Rulan cursed: "Useless thing."
"What made Miss Liu so angry?" Su Qianqian came over surrounded by a group of servants.
When everyone saw her coming, they all bowed and said, "May the princess be well."
"Everyone please stand up quickly, no need to be so polite."
"What's wrong with Rulan? What made you so angry?"
Su Qianqian and Liu Rulan have known each other since childhood, so they are naturally close.
Liu Rulan and Qin Qiubai were engaged. Normally, people with engagements were not invited, but Liu Rulan had a good relationship with Su Qianqian, so she invited her.
"It's so embarrassing, Qianqian... How could my aunt's granddaughter be so vulgar? The Princess's Mansion kindly invited her, but she made a scene at the banquet. As an elder, I taught her the rules, but she even dared to hit my maid..."
Su Qianqian glanced at Lu Shian and smiled: "Don't be angry, Rulan. She has lived a free life since she was a child. How could she be like us? Just let her be."
"Qianqian, you are kind-hearted and can tolerate such a thing."
"You are just too serious. Let's go and have some tea."
"Ah."
Su Qianqian coaxed Liu Rulan away with just a few words.
A group of people suddenly gathered around, and now they all left in a hurry. When they came, no one opened their eyes to look at Lu Shian, and when they left, they treated her as if she was not there. Only Qin Jingzhi nodded and smiled at her.
After everyone left, Lu Shian sat back in his original seat and ate and drank.
She asked Lu'er curiously: "Lu'er, how much do you know about the Duke's Mansion?"
Lu Er knew everything and said, "The one just now was Liu Rulan, the daughter of the Duke's Mansion. She is spoiled by nature. Her aunt is the wife of the Yongkang Marquis' Mansion."
"You just said this."
Lu'er smiled and continued, "Liu Rulan and Qin Qiubai are engaged."
Lu Shian's hand holding the pastry trembled. She looked up at Lu'er, and something in her heart began to slowly unfold.
Qin Qiubai is Zhinian's father, and the master that the eldest sister has fallen in love with over time. Was it this Liu Rulan who hunted her down back then?
Thinking of her vicious expression just now, Lu Shian had no doubt about this possibility.
"What else do you know? Keep talking."
"Qin Qiubai has someone he likes and doesn't want to marry Liu Rulan, but Liu Rulan is obsessed with Qin Qiubai."
"Haha, Qin Qiubai is not a blind person."
If you marry a woman like this, you will never have a peaceful life.
"Oh, that's not right. Isn't Qin Jingzhi her future aunt? I just saw that she doesn't seem to like Qin Jingzhi very much."
Lu Er chuckled, "Qin Jingzhi is very famous in Anjing. She is a famous talented woman and she is so beautiful. A person like Liu Rulan who is so competitive would never take the initiative to please Qin Jingzhi. Not making things difficult for her is already giving her enough face. After all, the eldest daughter of the Duke's Mansion is marrying down to the Qin family, so how could she rush to please Qin Jingzhi?"
Lu Shian nodded: "That's the truth."
After eating the cake in his hand, Lu Shian poured himself a cup of tea. The taste of ancient snacks was light, but eating too much would make you choke.
It was boring sitting here. No one knew her in the first place, and after Liu Rulan's commotion just now, no one would come to talk to her.
Lu Shian clapped his hands and said, "Since we are here, we can't come in vain. Let's take a look around before we leave. Maybe this is the only chance to get to know the lives of the royal family."
Lu Shian was not familiar with the terrain, so he just walked wherever he wanted. When he saw her going to the backyard, Lu'er called her.
"Miss, that should be the prince's residence."
"Prince? Su Ziming?"
Lu'er nodded: "The eldest princess only has this one son and one daughter."
