Chapter 10
The little girls in Lan Cao were the rivals of the women. After pulling them down several times, they were pushed to the ground, and the women rushed straight into the room.
At that time, Lu Wan had changed his clothes and was sitting at the table doing needlework. There was gold thread in the basket in front of him, and he was sewing a bright red dress in his hand.
It is the wedding dress she prepared for her marriage soon.
The wedding dress is almost sewn, only the gold thread is left to piping.
Seeing several women barging in, she said coldly without raising her head: "As the saying goes, this person is looking for death, and even the King of Hell can't stop him!"
The expressions of the women froze, but they did not take her words seriously. The leader, Aunt Liu, sneered disapprovingly and said: "Early in the morning, the second lady started to bluff people, treating us like children.
We are not afraid."
Lu Wan put down her needle and thread, raised her head and smiled coldly: "Really? I've underestimated some of the nuns."
Aunt Liu took two steps forward, straightened her back and said: "The prince has ordered that the person who had an affair with King Yi must be found before dark today. Several old slaves were ordered to come to the second lady's place to check, please."
Second Miss, please forgive me!"
Lu Wan: "What if I don't comply?"
Aunt Liu looked cold and said without any sign of weakness: "Then don't blame the old slaves for being unreasonable."
After that, with a heavy wave of his hands, two women with round shoulders and thick waists came to Lu Wan, stretched out their hands towards her unceremoniously, grabbed her shoulders one by one, and began to drag her into the inner room.
Seeing the orchid grass outside the door, she was so anxious that she burst into tears. After hearing the news, Lan Ying rushed from the backyard and led several maids from Qinghuai Courtyard to rush into the house and fought with the mother-in-law who was guarding the door.
The scene suddenly became chaotic.
At this moment, a "pop" sound was suddenly heard, and black smoke suddenly billowed out from the brazier placed in the middle of the room. Immediately afterwards, a pungent burning smell spread throughout the room.
When Grandma Liu looked back, her face turned pale—the wedding dress placed in the basket actually fell into the brazier and was set on fire!
At a glance, he knew that it was the two women who accidentally touched and fell in when they were pulling Lu Wan.
The two women were also dumbfounded and stood there at a loss, their faces no longer as arrogant as before, but full of fear after getting into trouble.
Yes, they, and even the entire town and government, sincerely despise this concubine with a humble mother. They can humiliate her without fear, but this wedding dress, from the fabric to all kinds of gold and silver coins,
, all were gifts from King Rui.
In other words, what they burned was Prince Rui’s stuff!
"Ah..." Lu Wan exclaimed and was the first to react. He broke free from the restraints of the two women and threw himself in front of the brazier. He didn't care about the flames bursting out inside and actually reached into the brazier with his bare hands to save his clothes.
However, the material of the clothes was flammable, so he was caught in the fire, and a fire broke out in an instant. Lu Wan put her hand in, and was so burned that she pulled out, and her hands were covered in fire blisters.
"Miss..." Lan Yinglancao broke away from her mother-in-law and ran into the house, stopping Lu Wan from reaching out into the brazier. Grandma Liu also reacted, picked up the teapot on the table, and rushed toward the brazier.
For a time, the room was filled with thick smoke, the brazier was tilted, charcoal ashes were everywhere, and it was a mess.
Lu Wan held the half-burned wedding dress in her hands, and while crying, she shouted to Aunt Liu and the others: "I can bear you bullying and humiliating me, why do you want to destroy my wedding dress and take me to the other side?"
Dead end!?"
After saying that, before anyone could react, she held her wedding dress and knocked it against the doorpost on the side.
Soon after, a figure quickly jumped in, stood in front of her, and stopped her. It was Yu An next to Li Rui.
