Chapter 2638: You Need to Start Preparing Your Dowry
Mm. Lu Mingxuans voice choked, and tears started streaming down her face. Thank you, Father.
Lu Mingxuan sat down, continuously wiping her tears. This made Mistress Yun start wiping her tears as well as she thanked, Thank you, Master.
A fleeting expression of complexity crossed Lu Junnings face, and her expression grew even colder.
Ning Shu swallowed the food in her mouth as she took in this scene of filial piety. She couldnt help but find it strange no matter how she looked at it.
Lu Yuanfan looked at Lu Junning and said, Dont worry about the matters at home anymore.
Lu Junning furrowed her brows and asked, Father, why? Is there something I havent done properly?
Lu Junning couldnt understand why Lu Yuanfan would take away her authority as the manager of the household.
Lu Yuanfan put down his chopsticks and calmly said, You need to start preparing your dowry. Ive decided to marry you to Prince Chen.
Shen Yichen immediately laughed and said, Thanks for giving us your permission.
Lu Junnings expression changed, and she slammed her chopsticks heavily on the table. I wont marry.
Upon hearing Lu Junnings words, Shen Yichens facial color became a bit bad and his gaze grew slightly cold.
Seeing Shen Yichens displeased face, Lu Yuanfan quickly said, If you wont marry him, then who will you marry? Prince Chen has been staying in the Lu residence for so long, you two are always together. If you wont marry him, then who will you marry? Lets set a date.
Lu Junning tightly pursed her lips and stubbornly refused to marry.
Not allowing any objections, Lu Yuanfan said, Thats settled. You should start preparing your dowry.
Sit down.
Father, are you really going to treat me as nothing but a tool to solidify your power? If you want to use Prince Chen, you should also consider whether Im willing to marry. Lu Junning said coldly.
Marriage has always been on parents orders with a matchmakers words. Its not up to you whether youre willing or not. Lu Yuanfan said with a stern face, his gaze fixated on Lu Junnings face.
He felt somewhat shocked in his heart. His daughter was so rebellious.
Im the one getting married, and no one can force me to marry. Lu Junning firmly stated.
Suit yourself. The date has been set anyway. Lu Yuanfan said with a grim face.
The father and daughter couldnt come to an agreement, making Shen Yichen feel a bit awkward.
In front of so many people, Lu Junning had stated that she didnt want to marry him.
As for the affairs at home, Mistress Liu, youll take care of them for the time being. Lu Yuanfan didnt want to argue with Lu Junning anymore.
Mistress Liu had her head lowered the entire time, not having much of a presence. When she heard this, she looked up in disbelief and said, Master, what did you say?
Youll temporarily take care of the affairs at home.
Mistress Liu felt like a pie had suddenly fallen on her head and almost fainted. With so many people staring at her, she felt both excited and scared.
Mistress Liu couldnt help but look at Ning Shu, who subtly shook her head.
Managing the household wasnt an easy task, and there was nothing she could do if the subordinates didnt listen.
Mistress Liu was a bit disappointed when she saw Ning Shus headshake. However, when she saw the unfriendly gazes from Mistress Yun and Lu Junning, she let go of this ambition.
Mistress Liu waved her hand hastily and said to Lu Yuanfan, Master, I cant do it. Ive never managed a household before, and I dont understand anything.
Take it slow, itll be fine, Lu Yuanfan said.
The more Lu Yuanfan said this, the more Mistress Liu felt uneasy. Master, Im not capable. Itll be very difficult for me to manage such a big household.
Lu Yuanfan gave Mistress Liu an annoyed look and turned to Mistress Yun. Then youll be in charge.
Thank you, Master! I will definitely manage the household well, Mistress Yun said happily, her face glowing with joy, and her eyes filled with tenderness as she looked at Lu Yuanfan.
Lu Yuanfan didnt even meet Mistress Yuns gaze.
The meal ended on a sour note, and Lu Junning turned and left, leaving Lu Yuanfan with an unpleasant expression. He said to Shen Yichen, Apologies for this embarra.s.sing scene, Your Highness. This child lost her mother at an early age and can be quite willful. I hope you can understand.
