Four hours later, Lu Tianhua returned on a horse carrying his beautiful wife. When he went to pick up his wife, his parents-in-law refused to agree. Lu Tianhua knelt sincerely and said that his younger brother returned as an official and had no debts at home. He took his wife back to the order of the head of the family. If he could not pick up his wife, he could only kill him outside the door according to his brother's strict order. His parents-in-law agreed to Lu Tianhua take away his daughter and rejected the money given by Lu Tianhua.

After Lu Tianhua and his wife returned, they both knelt outside the main house, begging Lu Qi's mother to forgive and accept his wife's return. After kneeling for an hour, Lu Qi's mother opened the door and coldly ordered Lu Tianhua's wife to cook dinner. Lu Tianhua and his wife were overjoyed, knelt down and kowtowed together and hurried to do housework.

Dinner was also considered a harmonious reunion dinner. Lu Tianhua's wife was beautiful, named Zhou Yue'er, with a gentle and virtuous personality. Lu Tianhua's father-in-law was a juren and his family was not rich. He relied on renting a hundred acres of fertile land to make a living. Lu Tianhua failed in business and they were unable to help. Although his daughter had proposed marriages after returning home, she had never responded. She was an upright and old-fashioned family of officials.

After dinner, a family meeting was held to discuss future livelihoods. Lu Qi meant to buy a big shop to do business, but Lu Qi's mother suffered from business and wanted to use most of the money to buy a fertile farm. Lu Qi explained that the income from buying a land was small, and the annual income would be smaller in the event of a disaster. It was recommended that you buy a shop to do business, which was convenient for management in the city.

However, Lu's mother refused to give in, and Lu Tianhua smiled and said nothing. Her sister-in-law Zhou Yueer and Aunt Li unanimously supported Lu's mother. Lu Qi lost three to one, so she had to compromise and agree to buy land. After setting an investment direction, Lu Tianhua took the initiative to continue working and earning some household income. Lu's mother disagreed and asked Lu Tianhua to continue studying and strive to become an official.

Lu Tianhua could not refuse Lu Tianhua's kindness, but he tactfully proposed to buy a small shop to sell some common medicinal materials. He could read while reading. Lu Qi immediately expressed his support, and Lu's mother reluctantly agreed after thinking about it.

In fact, Lu Tianhua's business operations were just about medicinal materials. He was deceived by someone to buy a bunch of fake medicinal materials at a high price, so he naturally lost all his money. Lu Tianhua wanted to fall from there and get up from there. Lu's mother was afraid of doing business, but Lu Tianhua was deeply hit and lost his confidence. Lu's mother was not willing to oppose it, which made Lu Tianhua feel sick and continue to be decadent.

After everyone was happy to discuss, Lu Tianhua happily pulled Lu Qi out and looked for a suitable and cheap shop along the street at night. Lu's mother only agreed to take out 300 taels of pharmacy to do business. The two brothers took a chance to fall in love with a smaller shop in East Street in the middle of the night. It would take 500 taels to buy it. Lu Qi's money had been handed over to his mother, but he patted his chest to reassure his brother. He would collect 200 taels of silver in two days to put it in the shop.

The next day, the Lu family's mansion was very lively. Lu's mother returned from a bright future and was in a wonderful mood to entertain her family and neighbors. Although the Lu family was separated, the family situation was still there, and the ancestral genealogy restricted the Lu family from dispersing. Lu Qi is now a seventh-rank official, and his return has changed his family from poverty to a small wealthy family. More than a hundred relatives who rarely interact with each other on weekdays flocked to him.

Lu's mother is beautiful today, with half-white black hair neatly combed neatly, wearing a light blue palace coat, she has restored the graceful and luxurious temperament of the heroine of the official family. She talked to the visitor with a smile. Her daughter-in-law Zhou Yue'er was wearing a light yellow dress, with her brows and apricot eyes, and her snow-skinned cheeks. She was so beautiful that she was envious and jealous. She accompanied Lu's mother gently. When she met her younger generation kowtowed to Lu's mother, she took out a red envelope to reward her. The red envelope was thirty cents, which made the poor relatives and friends smile.

In such a lively scene, Lu Tianhua, the eldest son, was not here, and Aunt Li did not show up. The banquet was prepared by relatives and friends. Lu Qi was the protagonist, and he was smiling and socializing with relatives and friends near neighbors. He had already changed into a royal blue round necktie and calmly chatted with relatives and friends of the same age and generation.

It was almost noon, and suddenly a thick cloth skirt came in outside the door, holding a donkey in his hand, and shouted, "Is this the Lu Mansion? I am from the Qian Mansion, and I come to pick up the concubine slave I bought."

The courtyard of the mansion suddenly became quiet, and everyone stared at the cloth skirt woman in a daze. Lu Qi was also confused, but he heard Lu's mother's voice saying, "This is Lu's Mansion, please wait."

Lu Qi looked at his mother in surprise, but saw his sister-in-law Zhou Yue'er turn around and go to Aunt Li's house. He soon came out with Aunt Li. Aunt Li lowered her head and was supported by Zhou Yue'er. A red handkerchief was tied on her head, which was particularly eye-catching.

Zhou Yue'er helped Aunt Li to Lu's mother. Aunt Li knelt down and said sadly: "I, Li Yun'er, kneeled down to her mistress." After that, he kowtowed three times.

Lu's mother looked calm and said in harmony: "Go, you have nothing to do with the Lu family in the future." Aunt Li stood up, still lowering her head.

The woman leading the donkey came over and said in a harmonious voice: "The auspicious time is coming, let's get on the road." After that, she reached out and pulled Aunt Li, and half-carried her and rode her on the donkey's back. Aunt Li got on the donkey and was taken out of the mansion and left by the woman.

Lu Qi was extremely surprised and quickly turned around and walked to Lu's mother, and said anxiously: "Mom, hasn't Aunt Li's buyer returned?"

Lu's mother looked at her son with a strange look and said with a smile: "Don't be anxious, it's your aunt Li who is willing to do it. Go and accompany the guests quickly and don't lose your courtesy."

Lu Qiyi was stunned for a moment, and he stopped talking. It was too late for him to say anything now. Moreover, his mother said that Aunt Li was willing to leave, so how could he stop him from recovering it? But this suddenly became a choke in his heart, and his good mood suddenly became like a hole in his heart. Aunt Li often took him with him since he was a child, and his feelings like his mother and sister had been deeply imprinted in his heart. Unexpectedly, Aunt Li was willing to leave after the Lu family's family improved, which made Lu Qi's heart ached and he really couldn't accept the accident.

"Seventh brother, go and accompany the guests." Sister-in-law Zhou Yue'er urged softly, Lu Qimuran nodded, turned around and forced the crowd to treat the guests. The relatives, friends and neighbors quickly resumed joking.

About noon, Zhou Yue'er left Lu's mother silently and left the mansion. After two minutes, she returned to the mansion with a wheelbarrow. The wheelbarrow was pushed by a strong man, and a woman in a shabby cloth skirt fell on the car, with an old Xipa covering her head with patches staggered.

Everyone's eyes turned to the woman on the wheelbarrow again. Lu Qi looked at him in confusion. Yin heard someone laughing and said, "It turned out that he was going to turn the door. I said, why are you still selling concubines on a happy day?"

Lu Qi didn't know what the turntable was, but he saw his sister-in-law Zhou Yue'er helping her torn woman out of the cart and sent her away with a ten-money copper coin.

When he was puzzled, Zhou Yue'er waved his hand and called him over. Lu Qi walked over in confusion. Zhou Yue'er said softly: "Seventh brother, just open her face and lift her hippa."

When Lu Qiyi heard this, he suddenly understood and couldn't help but look at the woman with her head covered in a torn skirt. Zhou Yue'er pushed him and urged him: "It's Dajiyang time at noon. After noon, she can't enter the Lu family's door. Don't you want your sister-in-law to retreat to her back to the Qin Mansion, hurry up."

Lu Qiyi was shocked. He saw the woman in the torn skirt trembling slightly. He didn't bother to stretch out his hand and grabbed Xipa and lifted it. A handsome and charming look jumped into his eyes. It was Aunt Li who was riding a donkey. When Xipa lifted, Aunt Li lowered his jade head, and a blush appeared on the snow neck and cheeks, and his body trembled even more violently.

"Hurry, come with me." Zhou Yue'er hurried to Aunt Li and hurried to the main house, leaving Lu Qi standing in a daze in a panic.

Lu's mother came to him and said kindly: "Don't be idle. She is still young and has nothing to do. My mother can't bear to marry her. You can treat her well in the future. When she has children, you can get a reputation."

Lu Qiyi was shocked and said anxiously: "Mom, she is me..."

"Don't talk nonsense. Mom is the heroine of the family. Don't ask too much about the inner house. She is now a concubine we bought from the Qin family. As the hero, you have the right to call her. If you don't like it, you can refuse her service. From now on, you must not say unlucky words. Go and entertain guests quickly." Lu's mother interrupted Lu Qi's words in a low voice, then hurriedly instructed her, then turned around and went to socialize with relatives and friends with a smile.
