When Huo Wei found that ever since she was lucky enough, she was like a spoiled child. Many things had been done for her before she could do them.

 

If Lou Ye was just a prince, she would have made a clean break with him. But he was still her closest lover in love for two lifetimes. Of course, she would not refuse his help. She was also helping Lou Ye avoid the risk.

 

Two days after the meeting, a big case happened in the capital. The master of the temple in the suburb was a complete liar!

 

He didn’t know how to read a lot or calculate fortunes. The words he said were either made up or bribed. In the past few years, a large number of people had been hurt because of his deception. Now, he had been put in jail, and he had been severely interrogated. After that, he had to investigate the person involved in the case.

 

Master was a liar!

 

The news caused an uproar in the city. Ordinary people were shocked and curious. They couldn’t even see that master. Only the dignitaries could see him. Would those dignitaries be deceived? How ridiculous it was.

 

To the common people, the high officials and noble people were all superior people. They suddenly found that they were also very stupid, and were fooled around by a fake “Master”. They immediately had the interest to discuss. People in tea houses, restaurants, streets, and houses were talking about it with great interest.

 

As for the noble people who were usually treated as distinguished guests by the “Master”, they were too ashamed to see others!

 

In the past, how complacent they were about their own special identity, and now, how ashamed and embarrassed they were as if they were nailed to a pillar of humiliation, expressing their stupidity. How could such a stupid person deserve to be friends with? This directly affected the comments of the ladies and their relationships.

 

In particular, the news of the Lus’ approval of life recently had been widely spread. As soon as the master was caught, the Lus had become a complete joke!

 

The Lu family said that they wanted to help the Huo Wei and the Lis to reunite, but everyone knew that the Lu family had followed the Master’s orders and driven her away because they believed that her luck was not good? Otherwise, the Li village would have proved that Huo Wei was not a member of the Li family. The Lus should have settled her down if they wanted to get back at her.

 

But the Lus, as if they had never known this person, allowed the outside world to call her a jinx, ignoring her, not explaining, and not helping her. The Lus didn’t even give her a penny. Obviously, they had nothing to do with her.

 

Because of the name of the jinx, no one cared much about the Lus before. After all, if it were them, no one could guarantee that they would not mind it. There were so many people in such a big family, but they still had to pay attention to the family glory and profit first. Although they looked down upon them, in fact, they understood.

 

But now the situation was different. That master was a liar. What he said was all lies, and Huo Wei was not a jinx at all. As more and more people discussed it, the news about Huo Wei was spread.

 

When she left the Lus, she saved a child on the street, so a cart pulled her to the village without walking; The Li family didn’t want to stir up trouble, but she got a piece of meat in the village; The Li family had diarrhea, but she was fine; Mrs.Li was hurt by a wild boar in the village, but all the villagers got pork.

 

When she stayed in the Li village for two days, everyone got benefits except the Lis. How could it be a jinx? To be more superstitious, the Lis didn’t raise her but asked her to call them dad, mom, and brother. God couldn’t stand it! The villagers of Li’s village told her that her father had forced her to sell her for one hundred taels of silver!

Besides, since Mrs.Huo had adopted Huo Wei as her goddaughter, she had been in high spirits and had a good time. None of her neighbors was unlucky? The only thing she could do was to step on a rock?

 

The waiter of the treasure house also told her that she earned all the money that Huo Wei spent on selling her jewelry with the shopkeeper!

 

She was such a good girl who can make money on her own and appreciate Mrs. Huo. Do you think she was a jinx? What’s wrong with your head?

No one thought he was an idiot, and no one was willing to admit that he had been deceived. So when the truth was revealed, most people would retort, saying that they had never believed it. They had discussed with others before just to make fun of her, and she was not a jinx.

Now no one dared to say that she was a jinx. The liar had been put into jail, and if one believed him again, he would be stupid.

 

The more they wanted to prove that they didn’t believe it, the more they stepped on those who had believed it before. For example, the Lis, the Lus, and the neighbors who forced her to move. All of a sudden, these people became the targets of ridicule, leaving no room for ridicule.

 

The neighbors of Mrs. Huo’s house were all shut. They felt ashamed of themselves. They had asked someone to go to the Huo family’s house to complain, but some of them refused. They even said that she was a coward. Well, now it was all the opposite. Those people could be said to be idiots. They were so ashamed.

 

The Lu family members also had long faces, and the servants were carefully whispering in private.

 

After being teased by other courtiers, Lu Yuan went back home and couldn’t help but complain about Mrs.Feng, “Mother, why do you find such a master? Now the Lu family has become a joke in the capital! “

 

Mrs.Feng was restless and seemed to be in a bad mood. “I don’t know either. You know how many people believe that master in the city. I’ve been a Buddhist for many years. It’s not easy for me to see him a few more times. I didn’t know he would lie?

 

This liar should be killed. What’s wrong with lying about fate? “

 

But on second thought, she said, “That’s not right. Didn’t something happen to the Liao’s? And the prince… “

 

“Don’t mention it anymore.”Lu Yuan frowned and said angrily, “It’s not a day or two for the Liao’s to do that. Even if he doesn’t get engaged to Qiaoshan, something will happen sooner or later? As for the prince, I have found out that it was the eldest prince who did it secretly. It has nothing to do with her! “

 

Mrs.Feng was annoyed to see him complaining about her. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Didn’t you decide to break up with her and never mention her again? Who is to blame now? “

 

Lu Yuan was speechless. Who could he blame? It was just that no one could be blamed!

 

At that time, he would rather believe what she had than believe that she had nothing? Besides, he hadn’t been successful in the political field these years and couldn’t be promoted. If he was forced to be promoted by Huo Wei, it was not because he was incompetent. He really believed in her fate.

 

Mrs.Chen lowered her head and didn’t say anything. There was only endless agitation in her heart. Since Huo Wei had left, her family was still affected by her. No matter what others said, she still believed in fate. Even if she couldn’t have a baby in the past few years, and her body became weak, she must have been born to her biological parents.

 

It was completely unreasonable to believe it or not. She didn’t want to admit that she was wrong, so she had to believe that there was something wrong with her.

 

But now, whether they believed it or not, they had become the laughingstock in the capital city. Everyone was talking about them, including Lu Jingyun, who was approved to be good to husband and family.

 

Didn’t they say that Lu Jingyunwas a lucky star? Everyone thought it was a legend. She had been hugged wrong since she was a child, but she was still so generous. As soon as she came back, she exposed the fact that she was a jinx, and she would bring good luck to her parents and husband’s families. Her future mother-in-law, the Marquise, loved her very much and wanted to marry her son immediately.

 

How was it going? It was a lie to say that she was the lucky star! Was she still a lucky star?

 

People dug out what had happened to her in the Li village. She was nothing but a lucky star. Her father had made a lot of money when he was a hawker more than ten years ago, but he had kept Lu Jingyun for so many years. The Lis was getting worse and worse, and there was no sign of raising a lucky star.

 

It was said that the Lis earned money more than ten years ago. Maybe it was because  Lu Jingyun fell into their family’s fortune. Later, maybe they mistreated Lu Jingyun, so the fortune was gone. But it didn’t work at all. On the one hand, no one was willing to believe the master’s approval. On the other hand, Lu Jingyun lived a life of an ordinary peasant woman in Lis. There was no preferential treatment or harshness, and the Lis didn’t treat her especially at all.

 

She was even almost engaged to the man who sold pork, who was one of the richest families in the Li village. The Li family could let her marry a rich man in the village, instead of selling her to the old man as a concubine. This was not harsh to the farmer, was it?

 

After these things spread, all the famous people in the capital city had heard about it, which made them feel subtle. Didn’t the Lu family say that they had mistreated this girl after they found her? So when they saw her, they couldn’t treat her as before, because they thought of the Li family.

 

As a result, the Lis didn’t treat Lu Jingyun harshly, and Huo Wei wasn’t the daughter of the Lis either. Huo Wei’s anger was completely inexplicable, and she ended up being driven out. Some people thought too much. Why did the master of fraud say that Huo Wei was a jinx and Lu Jingyun was a lucky star? Was it really a coincidence?

Everyone was used to considering interests. Huo Wei suffered the most in this matter, and Lu Jingyun made the biggest profit. The master had ever received money to harm others. Had he received the money in this matter?

 

Although there was no evidence to prove these conjectures, the girls who usually came to play with Lu Jingyun didn’t come. At least, they had to wait and see, and wait until the master gave a list of the people involved.

 

Lu Jingyun was so anxious. She was not only worried that her secret might be exposed but also afraid that the master was exposed twenty years in advance.

 

The reason why she had spent all her money to bribe the master was that it would take him twenty years to be exposed.  At that time, how many people would remember her and Huo Wei’s fate? Even if she remembered, she wouldn’t say it out again. Because at that time, even her son had grown up, and she had already gained a firm foothold in the Marquise, becoming an existence that the people of the capital could not sneer at casually.

 

But now, everything had changed. The feeling of losing control was getting worse and worse. Lu Jingyun couldn’t sleep all night. She was only sixteen years old, but her face was so pale that he could only apply some powder to cover it. How many things would change in the future? Did she still have an advantage in rebirth?[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

 

Now she went to Mrs.Chen and Mrs.Feng, and the atmosphere was dull. Since she was appointed as the lucky star, the Lus had been very good to her. They had to cover up that they abandoned Huo Wei not because they were ruthless, but because they treated Lu Jinhyun better, which showed that they only loved their own children.

 

But now it was all a fraud. When they saw Lu Jinhyun, they couldn’t help but think that they were created. They really couldn’t smile at her and didn’t want to see her.

 

Lu Jinhyun became more and more nervous. She couldn’t wait any longer. She just bribed the master a few days ago, and maybe she was the last one to do so. Even if the Master didn’t remember her, others would remember her, and he would definitely give her out!

 

She had to make sure that she would enter the Marquis’ mansion before the Master revealed her. She couldn’t allow all the things that she had tried so hard to grab to slip away from her again.

 

Lu Jingyun called Fang Qingze secretly. He was a soft-hearted man. He comforted his fiancee when she was sad. Comforting, comforting, the two of them tasted the forbidden fruit in a daze.

 

Or it could be said that only Fang Qingze was confused. Lu Jingyun was very sober from the beginning to the end. She would struggle to resist and cry with grievance and fear afterward.

 

She cried so hard that her heart softened. A man just got beauty, and he was always easy-going and loved to promise. Fang Qingze promised to marry her as soon as possible and coaxed her for a long time.

 

Lu Jingyun had made up her mind that if she encountered any hindrance again, she would say that she was pregnant with the child of Fang Qingze. How could Marquise lose her grandson?

 

This was the last resort. She knew the real one. But she had no better way now. Anyway, he was soft-hearted. If she did so, she could still win his heart after she married him. There was nothing to be afraid of.

 

After careful consideration, Lu Jingyun came up with this idea. After returning home, she used the evidence she knew in her previous life to control several dignified servants in the mansion and let them mention her marriage at the right time.

 

If she became the wife of Fang Qingze, then her matter would be tied up with the Hou clan. Naturally, not so many people dared to criticize her, and even fewer people would criticize the Lus.

 

This was indeed a way, but if Marquise was a little brainless, she would not get married at this moment. She would definitely wait for the master to give the list. What if Lu Jingyunwas involved? Isn’t it a joke to marry such a man?

 

However, Lu Jingyun had solved the problem by herself and asked Fang Qingze to mention the marriage to Marquise.

 

Marquise was displeased to hear that. Her favorable impression of  Lu Jingyun originated from her luck. Now that had become a fraud, without that layer of filter, Lu Jingyun was still an unqualified daughter-in-law in her eyes. If the two families hadn’t made an agreement in the older generation, and Fang Qingze had fallen in love with her, she would never agree to the marriage.

 

Now Lu Jingyun not only hooked up with Fang Qingze to abandon Huo Wei but also came to her in a hurry to get married. She hated such a daughter-in-law no matter what she thought. What would she do to her son when she married him in the future?

 

Fang Qingze was not very smart and listened to his mother very much. Therefore, under the pressure of his mother, he shamelessly said that he had taken advantage of Lu Jingyun outside, and felt very sorry for Lu Jingyun.

 

Women know women best! Marquise had fought with her husband’s concubines all her life. She had seen all kinds of women. She smashed the teacup and shouted angrily, “Bitch! How dare she set you up!”

 

Fang Qiungze blushed and explained hurriedly, “Mother, Yun didn’t set me up. She was just sad about what happened recently. I, I, I’m sorry for her.”

 

“Stupid!”Marquise was so angry that her chest could not help heaving. “Which good girl will refuse halfway? If she doesn’t want to, she will slap you lightly. Will you force her? “

 

“Of course not! I am not that kind of person. “Fang Qingze immediately explained. He also felt that something was wrong, but he didn’t believe that the girl he liked would do such a thing. He lowered his head and whispered, “Yun… She likes me, maybe…”

 

“You really piss me off!”Marquise was angry to see him like that. Lu Jingyun had coaxed her son before he got married. What if he really married her?

 

She knew her son was a soft-hearted man, and it would be counterproductive if she forced him. She took a deep breath and calmed down. “Well, since you like it, I will prepare for your marriage. But you are the only legitimate son of Marquis. You can’t get married in a hurry. You have to do it well. “

 

After a pause, she continued, “Don’t go to see Yun before you get married. If someone finds out something, it will do harm to her reputation. If her reputation is ruined, her mother won’t let her in for the honor of the Nestor. Do you understand? “

 

Fang Qingze nodded happily, “I understand, mother. You are thinking for us. I will write a letter to tell Yun that you agree to marry her as soon as possible so that she can rest assured.”

 

“Okay, go ahead.”Marquise didn’t stop him. Instead, she called the doorman to tell him not to go out at will and ask him to read at home.

 

Lu Jingyun was pleased to hear that. Everything went as she expected. She just needed to prepare for marriage. However, she had been waiting for a long time. In the past five days, Marquise did not come to discuss the marriage, and she could no longer contact Fang Qingze.

 

Only then did she become anxious again. She guessed that Marquise must want to delay it until the Master revealed the name.

 

“Damn bitch!”Lu Jingyun scolded, forcing herself to calm down and think of a solution.

 

She paced back and forth in her room and finally asked someone to spread a piece of news outside that Marquis and the Lus were going to hold a wedding. Marquise’s love for her had nothing to do with approval. Even if such a thing happened, she would still love her.

 

Lu Jingyun couldn’t care about anything now. The Master would definitely expose her in a few days. He couldn’t hide it for her. At that time, if the Marquis withdrew their engagement, she, a wild child who had secretly killed her sister and was raised by a rural family, would definitely not find a good marriage. If she was of no use to the Lus, they would definitely change their attitude. They might marry her to another place or give her to someone as a concubine, just like what they did to Huo Wei before.

 

She didn’t want it. It was difficult for a woman to live in this world. Marriage was her second reincarnation. If she ended up like that, she might as well die.

 

Lu Jingyun tried her best to offend Marquise and urge the marriage. When she married, even if she was on the list, the Marquis would do everything to help her for the sake of reputation. As long as she married into the Fangs, the Lus would definitely help her to maintain the relationship with the Marquis.

 

By that time, she would be able to “repent and turn over a new leaf.” she would win over the power of the Marquis and live a good life step by step. By then, the Lu family would have to suck up to her? How could anyone blame her again?

 

The beautiful scene in the future was still lingering in Lu Jingyun’s mind, so she took a bold step to urge the Marquis to hold a wedding with rumor and public opinion. If the Marquis hadn’t made any move yet, it would be a slap in the face. It meant that the so-called love of the Marquis was only to confirm the marriage. But if the Marquis didn’t recognize the marriage, it hadn’t proved that Lu Jingyun had done something wrong yet. It was too unreasonable and ruthless for the Marquis.

 

The Marquis had already withdrawn from the royal family once. If anything went wrong, how bad would their reputation be?

 

Marquise was grilled on the fire in an instant, and she was so angry that she smashed it all over the room!

 

“Good! Lu Jingyun is a good girl! How dare she play such a dirty trick? It must be her who let Master judge Qiaoshan’s fate. Otherwise, why was she in such a hurry? Humph! She used all kinds of tricks to get married. She thought everything would be fine as long as she entered the house? “

 

Marquise’s eyes darkened as she said, “She has to survive even if she has the life to come in. Do you really think that her tricks can fool us around?”

 

It was not difficult for a dead person in the backyard not to be noticed, especially if the master wanted him to die, as long as the meal medicine was controlled, he would die of illness. Fire, falling into the well, and falling into the lake were more violent. Marquise had been in charge of the family for more than twenty years. It was easy for her to make something happen to the newcomer, Lu Jingyun.

 

At that time, it would be Lu Jingyun who was not lucky enough to be the wife of Fang QingzeNe. No wonder.

 

Marquise held back her anger and asked someone to handle the wedding. But she had a way to solve it. She asked people to buy all kinds of things in a high-profile way and order them to make things in the bridal chamber. It took time to make the reservation, and it also took time to redecorate the bridal chamber.

 

It was not that she didn’t allow anyone to enter, but that she valued Lu Jingyun very much. No one could say anything wrong!

Lu Jingyun gnashed her teeth in hatred, but the Lus members were very happy. They thought Marquise really valued Lu Jingyun and often taught her to be filial to her mother-in-law when she married. Lu Jingyun had no other choice. She felt that she was not strong enough.

 

Even if she had thousands of ideas, she was just an unmarried girl without her own power and money. She gave all her money to the Master and was unable to do anything. Even if she had become a winner in her previous life, she was still a little inferior to Marquise, who had controlled the Fangs for many years.

 

Lu Jinyun suppressed her anger and anxiety and thought of Huo Wei. There was no reason for her to be so nervous about her. After being kicked out of the Lu family and Li family, Huo Wei should deserve a worse life than her.

 

She was too busy with her own business to notice Huo Wei. As soon as she thought of this, she immediately sent someone to inquire about her current situation, intending to see how miserable she was and how happy she was. However, Lu Jingyun didn’t expect that Huo Wei didn’t change at all. Instead, she became a popular star among the wives of officials!

 

Huo Wei was specialized in styling. The styling was from head to toe, from inside to outside, and the overall styling was different. Even if it was slightly better, it was very expensive. Only rich people could afford to hire her.

 

But as long as one asked her to design a new hairstyle, makeup, jewelry color, and clothes style, she would definitely be eye-catching. Every woman would like her. With this money, she had already started to look around the house and prepare to move!
