At this moment, she was having a headache. If he didn't let her sleep, then he could just chat with her. She still respected her elders and loved her youth, but her commanding attitude and tone of voice made Lu JinNian feel extremely unhappy.

"Does the Miss Sun from the Great General's Estate represent the face of the Great General's Estate? It's not you who spread the rumours about my looks all these years, but it's a pity that I still have the face to say it, so I'm too embarrassed to listen. "

"Besides, when did I say I was going to get married? I am not in a hurry at all. Even if I am, I am still under the control of my mother, the official wife of the great general.

Not only the servants of the General's Estate, even the madams of the aristocratic families outside had treated her as a proper matriarch of the General's Estate. Yet, Lu JinNian had called her 'Aunt', which made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Eldest Miss isn't young this year either. If Eldest Miss's mother is here, she would hope that Eldest Miss will marry a good family soon. After all, a woman must rely on a man for the rest of her life."

Hope my ass! Relying on my ass!

Lu Jinsheng rubbed his forehead. He really wanted to blow it.

If her mother felt that a woman had to rely on a man for her entire life, she wouldn't run away from home for so many years without even taking a message.

She came from a world that advocated equality between men and women, and she felt that it was only natural for women to be strong while her mother was born and raised in this era.

In a place where a man had three wives and four concubines, it was very normal for him to abandon the family of the Great General so decisively. He had to have status, status, and money. His courage was worthy of her applause.

In short, Lu Jinsheng couldn't be bothered to continue chatting with Mrs Shen, and a trace of coldness flashed through the smile on his lips.

"Aunt Shen, the second daughter of Liang Jing City's rich merchant Jia Lie. I heard that three years ago, Aunt's mother wanted to compete for the Emperor's Shang and left it at that. The Imperial Shang clan ran for the position once every five years, and that was the best chance Aunt had of doing so. I wonder what will happen after two years."

When Mrs Shen heard Lu JinNian mention her mother's house, she couldn't help but frown. "The competition for the imperial merchants was already intense to begin with. If they didn't choose then they wouldn't be chosen. What's the big deal!"

"Hur hur, I was right when I said that my daughter got married and poured out some water." Lu JinNian's beautiful fox eyes narrowed.

"I presume this aunt still doesn't know that from three years ago, your mother's business became even more difficult to manage. If this goes on, we won't even know if she'll be able to gain a foothold in Liang Jing City."

"What happened!" Lady Shen was alarmed and had a bad premonition.

"Didn't Aunt embezzle quite a bit of the general's property all these years to help your mother's family?"

"Don't worry, the estate is very generous. Whether it's the actual accounts or the fake accounts of the aunt, I have a backup. Take a look. The general saw that these accounts removed auntie's authority very quickly, so he decided to marry me out."

Mrs Shen stared at Lu JinNian, her face ashen. She wasn't sure if Lu JinNian was trying to scare her or if she really did have the account book in her hands, but she had spent a lot of money these years. If she suddenly didn't have the money, then … She didn't dare to gamble.

Lu JinNian snickered, "Aunt, who are you showing such a bullied victim's appearance to? Have you thought about what I've said to you all these years? I've never fought for it, but what did you do, Aunt? Who is the victim? "

Lu JinNian raised his hand to pinch Lady Shen's chin, making her look at him, "Using the poison 37 in the food, using the name of renovating the courtyard to make the mad dog run rampant eight times, smearing my reputation outside, the number of times I've splashed dirty water is innumerable. I don't care, but do you think that I'm not willing to compete with you, and I'm even planning to use the marriage as a reason to continue working hard?"

Mrs Shen was so frightened by Lu JinNian that her legs went soft. All these years, she had done so many times that she could not even count them herself. Those poisons were not fatal, they made people slowly weaken and die.

Lu Jin Nian was still alive and kicking. She thought there was a problem with the medicine, but she didn't expect Lu Jin Nian to not fall for it and everything she had done was within Lu Jin Nian's control.

She even took out a handkerchief from her sleeve and carefully wiped off the fingers that had touched Madam Shen. Then she leisurely said, "But unfortunately, although this aunt has a little beauty, she's still very old and doesn't have the ability to make me care for her."

Mrs Shen was both angry and annoyed. As a woman, no matter how old she was, she didn't like to be judged by her appearance. Gritting her teeth, she asked, "Then what does young miss want?"

"Aunt, you're a smart person. You know that I don't like people who meddle in other people's business, so it's better for us not to get involved in other people's business. Therefore, I don't need you to take the place of my mother, the official wife of the general's estate, and act on her behalf. Otherwise, don't blame me for returning all the poison that I've been poisoned with all these years."

Seeing Mrs Shen still sitting on the ground without any reaction, Lu JinNian continued, "Aunt doesn't believe it. Does Aunt think that I can't take out the poison that you've poisoned?"

"Speaking of which, I really can't take it out, I can only make do with one or two catties of beans. Besides, Aunt is old, I'm really worried that Aunt's diarrhea will go away, so I might as well use it on a strong person, for example …" Lu Qingwan? "

Shen Shi's pupils shrank, "No, no!"

"Aunt, don't be nervous. I know that your family's Qingwan is favored by the fourth prince. She's probably going to request for a marriage decree soon. If anything goes wrong at this moment …" So, Aunt's answer is? "

Madam Shen forced herself to stand up, "I promise Eldest Miss that I won't criticize Eldest Miss anymore."

But when she left, the hatred in Lady Shen's eyes could not be concealed.

Lu JinNian was too lazy to care. Her head was aching so much that it felt like it was about to burst. She hugged her head in pain and called out to the air, "Yi Han."

A figure leaped in front of Lu JinNian, lowered his eyes and said, "Miss."

"I'm going to sleep later, so I'll explain the situation first. I'll go to the Prime Minister's residence to find Pei Yin's room tonight …" "You know what to do. Don't kill yourself. Just do it."

"Collect more of the aristocratic young masters in Liang Jing City. They are good-looking but unambitious, have no parents and eat old school books, or are separated from their families and have no medicine to save them from giving up treatment."

Yi Han's lips moved slightly. "Miss, you …"

Lu JinNian raised his watery eyes and looked at her. His eyes flickered with a pitiful light. "Hanhan, can you explain it after I've used up my alcohol …" She really had a headache right now.
