A Girl Traveling Through Troubled Times

Chapter 159 Lulu Enters the Mansion Young Marshal is on a Business Trip

When Gui'er heard that Ji Yiru personally brought Lulu into the mansion, she was very surprised and said, "How is this possible? Doesn't my sister-in-law hate Lulu the most?"

Dali smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, Master, I don't know what she's up to, so I have to go back and take a look."

Seeing that this was the right time to ask, Gui'er asked Dali, "Who is this Lulu? Why do I feel like my brother thinks highly of her?"

Dali sighed and said, "Oh, it's a long story. She also came from Qingfeng Village. Her mother was one of the lovers of several of our old masters. However, she followed several people one after another. When this girl was born, no one knew which master she was from, and no one wanted to acknowledge her. But thinking that she might be their own bloodline, everyone treated her well. Later, her mother got old and went down the mountain to marry a small businessman, and she followed him. I heard that because they couldn't afford it, they became a dancer when they grew up. We are old acquaintances. She has been attracted to our young master since she was a child."

Gui Er didn't expect there was such a connection, so she said, "So Miss Lulu is actually a pitiful person. Does Brother Yan Xiao really have a connection with her?"

Dali said, "Probably not. But out of pity for her, he would occasionally buy her dance tickets. However, as a witch, she is actually quite wealthy. The young master had already introduced her to a wealthy businessman as a concubine, but she was too proud to be his wife."

In other words, Lulu volunteered to be a dancer. Guier suddenly remembered the dancer Zhao Ruyu who had helped her in Shanghai. She also volunteered to be a dancer. However, compared with the two, Lulu was much more ambitious. After all, she wanted to be a warlord's concubine.

Gui'er then remembered that she had not bought any supplements for Song Xichen yet. Sha Yanxiao was not at home today, so she told Dali that she was going to Wing On Department Store.

As soon as she entered, Guier went straight to the counter and asked the teller what nutritional products were available for visiting patients. The clerk took out a few bottles from the counter with a smile on his face.

Guier took a look and saw Huada Poly cod liver oil, Glaxo Malted Milk, and Nestle milk powder.

Gui'er didn't think the first two were reliable, but she did have Nestle milk powder in Hyundai, so she bought two cans. But it still wasn't enough, so after leaving Wing On Department Store, she saw a Shoukang Pharmacy right next to it, so she hurried in. Dali was shocked to see Gui'er walk into the pharmacy, and he quickly ran in and asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Gui'er rolled her eyes and quickly said, "No, my classmate is not feeling well, and I just wanted to get some medicine to make her a medicinal meal."

The owner of the pharmacy had heard this and came over to ask, "What kind of medicinal food would you like to order, young lady?"

Guier asked, "What kind of medicinal food is best for a broken bone?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Of course it's the Panax notoginseng and Angelica pigeon soup. It can invigorate blood circulation, remove blood stasis, and warm the meridians and dredge the collaterals."

Guier thought for a moment and decided that Panax notoginseng and Angelica sinensis did seem to have this effect, so she said, "Then please pick up three for me."

After buying things and picking up medicine, I returned home. As soon as I returned to the yard, I felt it was unusually lively. When I entered the house, I saw Ji Yiru holding Lulu's arm and sitting on the sofa in the living room. Ji Yiru arranged Lulu in the room where Guier had lived before, and also replaced all the furniture in the room with new furniture that matched the hall.

Gui'er felt a little confused, but still said politely: "Sister-in-law, I'm back."

Ji Yiru said with a smile on her face: "You're back. This is your sister Lulu. She will live in our house from today. Please get along well with her."

Lulu stepped forward and said to Guier with a smile, "Sister Guier, long time no see." The smile seemed a little provocative, with a hint of victory.

Gui'er was confused, but smiled and said, "Okay, welcome."

Sha Yanxiao sat aside, frowning slightly, looking a little helpless.

Gui'er didn't want to get involved in this mess, so she went back to her room under the pretext of doing homework.

Just as she returned to her room and sat down, Sha Yanxiao knocked on the door and came in. Gui'er had no choice but to start doing her homework. Sha Yanxiao seemed reluctant to go out and spend time with Ji Yiru and Lulu. After watching Gui'er finish her homework, he took the initiative to review the lessons for her and preview tomorrow's class. Since there was really nothing to do, they started chatting idly again.

Gui'er sighed and said, "Brother, do you really not want to get along with sister-in-law and Sister Lulu?"

Sha Yanxiao scratched his head and said, "Oh, don't mention it. It's very annoying."

Sha Yanxiao didn't go downstairs until dinner time, and after dinner he left again on the pretext of having a social engagement.

Gui'er was reading the newspaper alone in her room. Ever since Sha Yanxiao and Ji Yiru got married, she spent most of her time in her own small room at home, or went to other courtyards to play, trying to reduce her contact with Ji Yiru as much as possible. She believed that less contact was an important way to avoid conflicts.

While reading the newspaper, someone knocked on the door. Guier asked, "Who is it?"

"It's me, Sister Guier." It was Lulu's voice.

Gui'er wondered why she was looking for her, but she opened the door anyway.

Lulu walked in, took a look around, and said with a smile: "I thought the young marshal valued my sister so much, but I didn't expect the furniture in my sister's room to be so old."

Gui'er noticed this when she moved in. Some of the furniture had scratches and stains that couldn't be wiped off. When she asked the servants, they all said that the young lady had asked them to move some old furniture from the utility room. Gui'er was too lazy to cause trouble and didn't mention it to Sha Yanxiao.

Guier smiled and said, "This room is old, so of course the furniture is old too."

Gui'er looked at Lulu. After two days, the bruises on her face seemed to have faded a little, but they were still purple. She said, "Sister Lulu, are you okay? I have some medicinal wine here. Would you like to use it?"

Lulu's face changed when she heard this, and she said, "No need. The young lady has already arranged the medicine for me. Sister Gui'er, I came here to tell you that you didn't agree when I asked you to help me enter the mansion, but I came in anyway. From now on, I will be your sister-in-law and your elder. You must serve me respectfully."

Gui'er was speechless. It turned out that her rejection that day was actually held against her. Ji Yiru beat her so badly, but Lulu seemed to be more grateful to her. It seemed that she was not a very smart person.

Gui'er had wanted to remind her to be careful of Ji Yiru, but now she was too lazy to say anything and just smiled and said, "Okay, sister-in-law."

The next day, Sha Yanxiao said he wanted to go to Fengcheng, and Guier asked him if he could go back and forth on the same day.

Sha Yanxiao said, "I'm afraid not. We need to check the physical security situation. It won't be that fast. You just stay home and go to school with Lily in the morning. If you can't be together in the evening, take a rickshaw back by yourself. Be careful, okay?"

Guier nodded and said, "Okay."
