CHAPTER 659: CHAPTER 658: WUFU IS VERY ARROGANT
On the Shangyuan Festival, due to Madam Lu’s calamities, unable to withstand the relentless pleading and intimidation of the old mother, Lu Da and his wife arrived at Wufu’s home early in the morning, ready to implore once more.
When they arrived, it just so happened they encountered Wufu on his way out. Upon seeing the elaborately dressed Wufu, both of them had a sharp glint in their eyes.
Wufu also saw them but didn’t spare them an extra glance, ready to board the carriage.
Lu Da immediately stepped forward but was blocked by Purple Jade and Jadeite, his face turning sour on the spot.
"Young ladies, we just want to have a word with Wufu!" Eldest Sister-in-law Lu said with a fawning smile as she moved forward.
Jadeite gave them a cold look, "Our young lady has nothing to say to you, step aside, or don’t blame me for being rude!"
This arrogant tone, it even made Eldest Sister-in-law Lu’s face stiffen.
Even a maid was so haughty and domineering. Was this a case of the dog bullying others by relying on its master’s power?
Lu Da, with a darkened face, directly asked Wufu inside the carriage, "It’s almost ten days now; you’ve punished your uncle and his family enough. When will you let them out?"
Jadeite’s eyes flashed fiercely, and she moved her leg, ready to step forward to discipline him for daring to question her young lady!
"Jadeite, why are you still standing there? The auspicious time is about to come; get on the carriage!" Wufu spoke indifferently.
"Yes, young lady!"
After the two of them boarded, the carriage quickly set off, not giving Lu Da and his wife standing there any pleasant consideration.
"This girl is too arrogant!" Lu Da, fuming with anger, his chest heaving, moved to knock on the door again but was firmly held back by Eldest Sister-in-law Lu.
"Father, let’s just leave. I feel very uneasy. Let’s just say we couldn’t meet anyone," Eldest Sister-in-law Lu pleaded, "Those two maidservants, they both look troublesome to deal with."
Lu Da, unable to contain his anger but recalling those two women, although young, indeed seemed to have an eerie air about them, he shuddered inside, uttering a few curses, and they hastily left.
Old Lady Lu was waiting at Dache Shop and saw how quickly they returned, her face immediately turning cold.
"Mother, they didn’t even see us!" Eldest Sister-in-law Lu hurried to say.
"Did they not see you, or did you not even bother to look for them?" Old Lady Lu looked at Lu Da and demanded, "Eldest son, speak!"
Lu Da, with great difficulty, said, "Mother, we did see them, but that girl Wufu did not even give us a glance, let alone speak to us."
"You..." Old Lady Lu pointed at them, her hand trembling.
Eldest Sister-in-law Lu approached with a flattering smile, "Mother, how can we show our faces now? Why don’t we just go back and let the Zhous deal with this? She’s the direct grandmother, and Zhou Yingmei’s birth mother. If she says a word, it’s a hundred times stronger than anything we could say!"
Old Lady Lu bellowed, "If you depend on that old thing, you might as well wait to claim your sister’s corpse. If she were willing to speak up, she would have done so long ago. Why hasn’t she come? Pah, it’s because she’s putting on airs!"
Eldest Sister-in-law Lu’s face twitched slightly, and she glanced at Lu Da, giving him a look.
Old Lady Lu caught this and immediately screeched, "You’re giving looks now? I always knew it, you harpy, always causing mischief on the side, just wanting to see Zhen Zhu dead! You vicious woman!"
Eldest Sister-in-law Lu also grew angry, "If mother says this, your daughter-in-law has nothing else to do. Anyway, we cannot persuade them; if you want to go, let you and the third go and plead! See if they will even meet with you!"
Choked by these words, Old Lady Lu started to make a scene, wailing and lamenting, as Lu San glared hatefully at his elder sister-in-law, then turned to Lu Da and demanded, "Eldest brother, won’t you do something?"
Lu Da, irritated as well, said, "Third brother, if you consider me your elder brother, then let’s head back first; today is still a day for celebration! Once we’re back, we’ll make another trip to the Old Zhou family and see what they say!" Seeing him about to interject, he continued, "Third brother, the Lu family can’t keep neglecting their business, and your wife is still carrying a child!"
Striking the snake’s vital spot, Lu San instantly quieted down.
