Chapter 1734 -1727: Ruining Lu Mian’s Reputation

Now in the autumn days, there are no warm clothes, but a huge pile of colorful thin dresses, still made of silk, quite valuable, right?

But they don’t keep warm!

And the meals delivered to Leng Muling every day, either lavish or plain and bland, constantly changing, directly ruining one’s stomach.

Leng Muling has been vomiting and having diarrhea for several days; her face has lost weight.

“What is there to fear, even if Lu Mian treats me harshly? If he’s capable, he should kill me himself, otherwise, I’m not some Tussah Flower that wilts with a little squeeze!”

Leng Muling adjusted the clothes she wore.

She was cold, but she could exercise indoors, running, jumping, sweating to keep warm.

She couldn’t eat or sleep well, all pretended for Lu Mian to see. When the food was good, she saved it, and when it was plain, she could still eat.

After her leg healed, her priority was to condition her body, only by making herself invincible could she have a chance to fight Lu Mian!

Her delicate body couldn’t withstand abuse!

While she was exercising and sweating indoors, the lark sent by Zhuo Junli flew in.

This bird was specially trained by her sister-in-law, with bright feathers and melodious chirps, flying freely in the Lu mansion, attracting affection and avoiding suspicion, it was for passing messages between Zhuo Junli and her.

Upon receiving the lark’s message, Leng Muling thought, “If Lu Mian is willing to use private accounts to find Deputy General Yang, then I’ll make him incur another debt!”

“Miss, what scheme are you brewing again?” Leng Qiu asked nervously, fearing that their Miss was too clever, inciting anger from Lord Lu and worsening their already dire situation!

“Take out my dowry; we’ll go outside the city to distribute porridge and clothes, giving relief to the disaster victims, and under Lu Mian’s name, claim he’s broad-hearted and merciful to the people!

Especially those soldiers sent to find Deputy General Yang, give each a share of the Salary Silver!”

Leng Muling smiled and took Leng Qiu to sneak out and get to work!

Under Lu Mian’s name, she opened porridge stalls, bestowed kindness, the people praised Lord Lu with clasped hands, and the news spread quickly, seen by passersby at the city gates, both commoners and regular officials who praised Lu Mian.

Several madams, acquainted with Leng Muling, brought their servants to help her.𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Yet, seeing that Leng Muling used her dowry chest, they became dissatisfied, “What? A man like Lu Mian uses your madam’s dowry for his generosity?”

“That’s shameless! Doesn’t he have money of his own? Using a woman’s money!”

“I heard that Lu Mian strongly opposes women joining the army, adhering to the Three Guides and Five Constants to suppress women’s status terribly, saying that in this life, we should only support our husbands and educate our children,

and claiming Deputy General Yang deserved to die for insisting on joining the army!”

“What? How can he despise women on one hand while sucking the life out of them on the other? Is he even a man? He should go back to supporting his wife and educating children! Bastard!”

Hearing them curse Lu Mian, Leng Muling was extremely pleased inside, but had to show a face of unspeakable suffering.

When Lu Mian returned from work, his face was dark enough to drip ink.

He stormed into Leng Muling’s loft, dragged her from bed, pinching her chin, his gaze fierce, “Leng Muling, if you truly want death, no need to wait longer, I can fulfill your wish right now!”
