Lu Zhen looked at Liu Sanniang, who opened the door, and said coldly, “Please read my face.”

Liu Sanniang looked at Lu Zhen and remembered that he was Lu Qingqing’s guard.

After Lu Zhen walked in and sat down, he looked at Liu Sanniang. He took out a banknote and placed it on the table. “I want to ask you something.”

Lu Zhen pursed his lips. He was a man of few words and looked very calm, but he knew very well that he was not as calm inside as he looked.

His mind was filled with the image of Lu Qingqing and Qin Lin chatting and laughing, and he was overwhelmed with crazy jealousy. He wished he could kill Qin Lin with his sword.

However, he still endured it. He knew that if he killed Qin Lin, it would never be possible for him and Lu Qingqing to be together.

He had never believed in fate, but after seeing what Liu Sanniang was capable of with his own eyes, he could no longer remain calm.

He wanted some clear answers.

Liu Sanniang looked at Lu Zhen calmly. If one was the kind of person who didn’t conceal himself, it would be easy to read his face.

If it was someone who was calm and concealed all emotions, it would be hard.

Liu Sanniang focused her attention before she could vaguely see something. She said slowly, “You love her very much, but she doesn’t know about it. If you continue like this, you will lose her eventually.”

After saying that, Liu Sanniang stopped looking at Lu Zhen. He was hiding too much and too deeply. Moreover, he resisted being seen through.

Lu Zhen frowned. After a while, he said, “What if I tell her about my feelings?”

Liu Sanniang told him bluntly, “Your marriage is uncertain. Nothing is sure before it happens.”

It was possible that he would end up with nothing in the end, but if he gave up, there would be no possibility at all.

Lu Zhen stood up. “Thank you.”

Liu Sanniang said calmly, “You’re welcome. You paid me for it.”

Lu Zhen nodded with a smile and left.

Liu Sanniang prepared to go out and shop before bidding farewell to Su Qiong.

Chu Yan followed beside her and acted as her assistant who carried things.

After dinner, Su Qiong asked the butler to prepare ten thousand taels of silver and get all the concubines to come over.

They looked at Su Qiong and bowed. “Madam, congratulations on your family reunion.”

Su Qiong waved her hand. “Don’t call me Madam. I called you here today because I have something to say.”

The servants brought over a box and opened it. Inside was filled with white silver.

They all understood what was going on and knelt down. “Madam, please don’t chase us away. We’ll listen to you and won’t cause trouble. Please.”

Su Qiong looked away. “I’ll give each of you a thousand taels of silver. Take your children and leave. No matter where you go, I don’t care. I’m already planning to divorce Lu Shiming.”

She was not responsible or obliged to keep these concubines.

In the past, she was muddle-headed, but now that she was sober, she couldn’t tolerate these women anymore.

The women lowered their heads and sobbed. They did not hate Su Qiong, but they hated Lu Shiming for not knowing what was good for him.

The butler distributed the money. After receiving the money, they looked at Su Qiong and sincerely thanked her but she didn’t say anything.

She had already decided to divorce Lu Shiming and was ready to go to court.

Lu Shiming was tormented by regrets. Only when he lost it all did he realize that without Su Qiong, he was actually nothing.

When he was still Master Lu, he was respected wherever he went. Other than not having real power, he was never short of money.

He did not dare to imagine what his life would be like from now on. It was easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but it was difficult to go from extravagant to frugal. It seemed he was destined to be miserable for the rest of his life.

After Liu Sanniang bought some things in Changlin County, she returned to the Lu Mansion with Chu Yan to bid farewell to Su Qiong.

Su Qiong smiled. “Miss Liu, there are still many good places to visit in Changlin. You can go take a look.”

“Thank you for telling me, Madam. I’ll consider it,” replied Liu Sanniang.

The most important thing for her now was to go home. Liu Dalang was about to get engaged. She did not want to miss such an important day.

Su Qiong nodded. “Miss Liu, I can’t possibly thank you enough. Please accept this. If not for you, I would never be able to reunite with my son.”

Most likely, if Concubine Yun’s plan had succeeded, she would have ended up with nothing in the future.

Liu Sanniang nodded and took the box. She smiled. “Madam, the rain has gone and the sky is clear.”

Su Qiong smiled. “Thank you, Miss Liu.”

After Liu Sanniang and Chu Yan left the Lu Mansion, they did not linger and returned straight to Yong County. She left the banknotes that Lu Qingqing gave her on the table.

When the servants saw the banknotes, they took them to the main courtyard.

Lu Qingqing said, “Why didn’t she take it?”

Su Qiong was also a little puzzled.

Lu Qingqing took back the amount. “Never mind if she doesn’t want it.”

Su Qiong looked at Lu Qingqing. She had been deceived in the past, but now and in the future, she would make up for it.

She said to Lu Qingqing, “If you really like Qin Lin, you can ask him to come to live in the mansion. I won’t stop you. Half of the Su family’s business is yours. Qin Lin can stay and learn first.”

Lu Qing was stunned. When she thought of Qin Lin, she did not feel very disgusted. She thought of what Liu Sanniang had told her and nodded. “Sure, I’ll talk to him tomorrow.”

Liu Sanniang told her she would have a good marriage. Perhaps the good marriage she had referred to was the one she would have with Qin Lin. He was indeed not bad, so she decided to give it a try.

Su Qiong nodded. “Okay.”
