While the two were talking, a maid ran over.
"Sister Shuanghong, the young lady is calling you back!"After hearing this, Shuanghong didn't waste any more time with Captain Qian and ran back to the main courtyard in small steps.
Captain Qian looked at her figure, smiled and shouted, "Miss Shuanghong, I'll treat you to tea next time!"
The frosty red ears immediately turned red as he jogged.
Lu Lingjun was waiting for Shuanghong in the yard.
After she had a tantrum in the morning, everyone else in the yard was trembling with fear. No one dared to surround her and chatter like usual. They all did their work honestly for fear of being scolded.
Lu Lingjun was too lazy to say anything to others. She sat quietly in the main room. After a while, Shuanghong ran in.
"Young Madam." Shuanghong, who had been scolded, lowered her head and stood at the door to greet.
Seeing her like a little quail, Lu Lingjun felt soft in her heart. She sighed and called Shuanghong forward, "Come here."
Shuanghong walked forward obediently.
"Angry at me?"
"I dare not." Shuanghong said as she was about to kneel.
Lu Lingjun grabbed her arm to stop her from kneeling. Shuanghong could not help but look at Lu Lingjun with fear and anxiety.
Seeing her like this, Lu Lingjun chuckled, "Am I some kind of man-eating beast? Are you so afraid of me?"
"No, Madam, you are kind-hearted and generous. Everyone in the mansion knows that you are a good person."
Shuanghong said hurriedly.
Lu Lingjun was well-known for her kindness towards her servants. Shuanghong followed Lu Lingjun closely and knew her better. She was not the kind of mistress who was hypocritical and vicious.
However, when Lu Lingjun is strict, she is really strict and her methods are ruthless. Moreover, Lu Lingjun is very wise and no one can escape her eyes.
Like a tiger guarding the house, or a non-angry god.
She turned a blind eye and watched everything in her territory calmly.
Most of the time she makes people feel at ease and gives everyone a sense of security, but once she becomes strict, people become afraid of her.
Lu Lingjun listened to Shuanghong's words and burst into laughter. She pulled Shuanghong to her side, relaxed her tone, and said with a little emotion, "Shuanghong, you and Zhiran have been with me since childhood. You two treat me differently from others."
"I know." Shuanghong raised her eyes and said.
Lu Lingjun looked into her eyes and said deeply, "You brought your sister here today, which actually scared me."
"I was rude in this matter. There will definitely not be a next time."
Seeing Shuanghong about to kneel again, Lu Lingjun pulled her and continued, "I'm not blaming you for this. I always thought you had no family. Didn't your sister run away with your mother and her whereabouts are unknown? How could she find you? Could it be that your mother came to find you?"
Lu Lingjun pretended to know nothing and asked.
"No." Shuang Hong was unaware and confessed honestly, "My mother is dead. My sister told me that I was sold that year, and she and my mother escaped and were taken in by a man. That man took her and my mother to live together. Some time ago, when my mother passed away, she met my father and his family at the funeral. She was reunited with my father, my grandmother, and my brother."
Lu Lingjun heard the same things as he knew in his previous life, and sneered in his heart, what a Spring and Autumn style of writing.
They can speak of betrayal and ingratitude in such a tender and loving way.
"Oh? You said your sister and your mother were taken in by someone. Was that person a man or a woman?"
Shuanghong frowned, "A man."
"A man took in your mother and your sister. What kind of thing is that? Could it be that they were taken by that man?"
"That's not the case," Shuang Hong quickly shook her head to defend herself. She had asked before, "My sister said that he was her stepfather. She used to call him dad."
"Is she nice?"
"Very good. I heard that her stepfather dotes on her very much and doesn't ask her to do rough work. He spends all the money he earns every day on her and my mother," Shuanghong said, feeling happy for them. "My mother is lucky."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Lu Lingjun ask, "Why did your sister abandon her stepfather who was so kind to her and reunite with your father and his family?"
Lu Lingjun's question instantly stumped Shuanghong.
Shuanghong has a simple mind. She doesn't bother to think about what others say in so many roundabout ways.
She just listened to her sister's story of the experience, and she sensed that something was wrong, but she just couldn't put it into words.
Looking at Danhong's happy face, looking forward to reunion, talking about the love of her family, and how her family treated her very well, she didn't ask any questions.
After Lu Lingjun said this, she finally realized that her sister abandoned the stepfather who had raised her for more than ten years and chose her biological father. Isn't this a betrayal and ungratefulness?
Seeing Shuanghong was stunned and seemed to understand something, Lu Lingjun continued to ask, "Also, you just said that you have a younger brother. Didn't your mother only give birth to you and your sister?"
Shuang Hong nodded stiffly, "Then my brother was born to my father's second wife."
Her father couldn't afford to marry a second wife, but the family line had to continue, so under her grandmother's strong request and the support of her savings, her father rented a cheap poor wife, who gave birth to a younger brother for them.
After hearing this, Lu Lingjun slowly said, "After your mother ran away, your father rented a wife who had to give birth to a son. Your mother took her daughter to marry the man who came later, but that man didn't ask your mother to continue his family line at all. Instead, he took good care of your sister. No matter how you look at it, you feel that your biological father is a piece of shit."
"My father is indeed a bastard." Shuanghong said at this time.
Her eyes suddenly became clear, and the previous fog, the hurt that had been concealed by time, and the barrier of family affection that had blinded her eyes after a long separation were all cleared away.
right!
What her young mistress said was absolutely right.
They are both men, so why is it that her stepfather does not care about blood ties, does not care about gender, and works hard to support her mother and her sister, while her biological father drives her mother and sister away, sells her, and even rents a wife to have another son!
People like him are just bastards!
He doesn't act like a father at all!
"Ah, I find it strange now," Lu Lingjun continued, "Why did your father and his men come here to look for you? Logically, it would be fine if they were looking for your sister and wanted her over, but you were sold by him, and you were indentured to death. What did he want to do by coming all the way here?"
Shuanghong suddenly understood, "He just came here to ask for money!"
"How despicable!" Lu Lingjun cursed, and she held Shuanghong's hand tightly, "Shuanghong, those people sold you out once, and that's all they did for you. From now on, we are strangers. Don't let them suck your blood again."
"I know." Shuang Hong nodded solemnly, "I will go down to do my work first."
Seeing that Shuanghong seemed to have come to his senses, Lu Lingjun felt a little relieved.
