The atmosphere in the old lady's room plummeted to freezing point as soon as this cane appeared. After all, in this era, it's a surefire way to get oneself into trouble by actively seducing a man.
Hehe! These people really dare to say anything, but the original owner remembers this very clearly.
Three years ago, the three-year-old brother was reciting poetry in the garden, and was overheard by Luoyujue, who unprecedentedly praised him.
When the second lady found out, fearing that a three-year-old child would steal the affection of her thirteen-year-old son, she ordered someone to lure him to play by the lake, and as a matter of course, he fell in. She found him and desperately saved him, but that night, the brother developed a high fever.
She went to beg the second lady, but even hitting her head against something wouldn't work. She could only jump into the water again and make herself sick, waiting outside the old lady's house all night until she saw the old lady, and only then did she ask the second lady to call for a doctor.
But this doctor, under the second lady's orders, was not allowed to treat the brother, only to show her. The brother's face was burning red with fever, and she had no choice but to cry and beg the doctor on her knees, but the doctor refused.
Seeing the doctor about to leave, she became anxious and grabbed the doctor's clothes, not letting him go. The doctor, seeing her pitiful tears, wanted to help her.
But at that moment, Liu Pozi, who was by the second lady's side, came and forcibly dragged the doctor away, saying some unsavory things.
"Rebellious girl, kneel down!"
Luoyujue said firmly.
Luoyanqian withdrew her thoughts and looked at the old lady, whose eyes revealed a hint of helplessness. Finally, she lowered her head and sighed, saying, "Forget it, Luo'er is after all your daughter, do as you wish. I'm tired!"
The old lady also had her own untold secrets, and under the care of her personal maid, she lay back down.
Seeing this scene, Luoyanqian, as the eldest daughter of the Luo family, how could she not empathize with her father's feelings at this time and show filial piety to her grandmother?
"Father, grandmother is getting old and should rest more. Sister is still young, and she has already made a mistake. If she disturbs grandmother's peace again, won't she feel even more upset?"
"Master, what the eldest daughter says is true. Since we are going to enforce family discipline, why not do it in the ancestral hall and call all the family members to gather, so that the younger generation can also learn to restrain themselves."
What a good eldest daughter, what a good virtuous wife, truly considerate.
"Big sister is absolutely right, but grandmother has just gotten up and hasn't had breakfast yet. Isn't big sister letting grandmother continue to rest, or is she going to starve grandmother? I remember, I used to skip meals often and felt weak and tired all over!"
Upon hearing this, Luoyanqian's usually composed face turned red and white alternately, and she hurriedly said, "Grandmother, I didn't mean that."
Luoyujue, who had just regained his composure from Luoyanqian's defiance, put his hands behind his back and said, "Rebellious girl, don't misinterpret your sister's meaning. Someone, take this rebellious girl to the ancestral hall."
Luoyujue's personal servant immediately rushed up and tied her securely with a rope.
Truly a person by Luoyujue's side, doing things without a hitch, whether it was tying her up just now or carrying her now, it was all very appropriate, without intentionally touching her or making her feel much pain.
Since the show had already begun, how could she not cooperate?
"Sister!"
Luoyanqian stood in front of the two servants, tears welling up in her eyes as she said to her, "Sister, I know you've always been strong-willed and unwilling to admit mistakes easily, but today is different. You've committed a huge mistake, no matter what father says later, you must beg for forgiveness, understand? You are after all father's daughter, as long as you admit your mistake, he won't punish you too severely."
After speaking, tears fell from her eyes, showing a sincere concern for her sister. If it were the original owner, she would definitely have listened to her sister's advice and begged for forgiveness.
After all, this advice now seemed to be the best, but unfortunately, the soul in this body was no longer the original one.
"Alright, I'll listen to big sister."
"That's right."
"Alas!" After they left, the old lady sighed.
"Old lady, why bother getting upset over this girl? You've taken care of her so much over the years, you've done enough."
"Alas~" The old lady sighed again, a look of sadness on her weathered face.
"When my little sister died at such a young age, and my two children suffered, and if I hadn't gotten lost in the mountains while picking herbs, delaying for three months, how could my child have..."
"Lu'er has been without a mother since she was young. Seeing her being tortured, my heart, it's hard to bear."
"I know, but you also have to think about yourself. The master has never liked you, and over the years, he has only provided for you out of face. If you..."
The following words were left unsaid by the old maid, but both the master and servant understood, and it was an unspoken understanding.
After Luoyujue became a prime minister, the ancestral hall of the Luo family was renovated, built in a low-key luxury style, with a large plaque written by the contemporary calligraphy master, sandalwood pillars at the entrance, and a perpetual lamp inside, tended to by a dedicated person, never extinguished throughout the year.
It was cleaned continuously, free of any dust.
In less than half an hour, all three of the family's aunts had arrived, along with their children and their own servants, filling the room.
Luoyujue stood in the middle, first lit a stick of incense, and said a few words of apology, then turned to look at everyone, and said sternly, "Today, I have summoned everyone here for this rebellious girl."
Upon hearing this, the servant responsible for holding her down pushed her to the ground.
"Rebellious girl, do you know your mistake?"
Luò Qiānqiān pretended to look scared and shrank back, saying:
"Ancestors, it seems that Father really doesn't like me, his daughter. In that case, I might as well go back to the border and live with my maternal family, so as not to bother Father in this mansion. Today, I bid farewell to the ancestors here. In the future, I may not be able to come and offer incense all the time, so I hope the ancestors won't be upset."
"Rebellious girl, what nonsense are you talking? I'll break your legs!"
Luò Yùjué was furious and swung the bamboo board in his hand towards her.
Luò Qiānqiān rolled on the ground just in time to avoid the blow.
"You rebellious girl!"
Luò Yùjué missed his strike and became even more furious.
"Master, please don't get too angry. What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and hold her down."
"Hehe~"
A laughter came from a towering tree in the Luò mansion.
"Master?"
Táowù rubbed his eyes, afraid that he might be mistaken. The usually aloof master was actually laughing?
"Watching a show!"
Yàn Fēimò glared at Táowù, who quickly averted his eyes.
Luò Yùjué was sitting on the ground, while Luò Qiānqiān was standing among the crowd, smirking.
What's going on here?
Shouldn't this girl be begging for mercy after being beaten?
"Do you want to know?"
Yàn Fēimò saw Táowù's confusion.
And the others present were also puzzled. Just now, the master was clearly chasing Luò Qiānqiān to beat her, so why did he suddenly sit on the ground and not get up?
"Stone."
Yàn Fēimò threw a fruit from the tree towards the ground.
It hit a cheerful little yellow dog that was running.
But as it ran, it suddenly sat down.
"Woof woof~" The little yellow dog barked in confusion, then rolled over and got up.
The situation on the field was so bizarre that no one noticed the arrival of the little yellow dog. When it barked, everyone was attracted to it, and they saw the dog sitting on the ground like a person, then rolling over and getting up.
Oh my god!
Isn't this the same action as the one the master just did?
Is this little yellow dog imitating the master?
"Beast!"
Luò Yùjué naturally saw it too, his face changed, and he was about to get up, but inexplicably, he also rolled over, just like the little yellow dog.
This...
Táowù was shocked. Prime Minister Luò is really quite cute!
"Haha~" Luò Qiānqiān burst into laughter:
"Father, how come you're imitating a dog rolling over?"
"Haha~"
The servants collectively burst into suppressed laughter.
"Master?"
The second lady called out in confusion. Why was the master imitating a dog?
"Master, are you okay?"
Méi Yínniáng asked weakly.
"You beast! I'll kill you."
Luò Yùjué turned pale and chased after the little yellow dog.
