rule, but rather seize the throne himself. If Duguxing interfered, he would only become their target. He must not be rash."I can't defend against this, Your Highness. ""Fourth Brother has fifty thous..."Mother, he's the one who said he was my uncle."

Wan'er pointed at Lu Xuan sitting in the hall, her eyes full of suspicion.

"Lao San, what's going on"

Lu Yi saw that Wan'er's eyes lit up, and upon hearing her words, his face darkened. "Didn't we agree to go together You actually went to see your niece before us"

“I’m just going to see if this little ancestor looks like someone from our Lu family.”

Hearing Lu Xuan's words, Feng Lingxi's head ached even more. Was he trying to compete with her for their daughter

"This isn't nonsense, the daughter born to my younger sister, how could she not be a member of the Lu family Besides, didn't Big Brother already take a look You don't go running around carelessly and frighten my niece. Let me tell you, Mother won't spare you."

Lu Yi's scolding made Lu Xuan instantly soften. He pulled him and begged pitifully, "Second brother, you can't do this. The three of us brothers are like ants on the same boat. You can't tell Mother, or otherwise I won't have a good life, and neither will you."

"You..."

"Shut up!"

Lu Nian angrily shouted, staring at the two of them, with a stern face he scolded, "What kind of talk is this, making so much noise."

Waner looked at Lu Nian and Lu Yi, her eyes full of fear. These two were so scary.

"They're all family, what are they fighting about What will happen to the poor niece who was frightened"

"That's my daughter, and she has nothing to do with you."

Feng Lingxi opened her mouth, took Wan'er by the hand and walked over to sit down. Looking at Lu Nian, she tried hard to calm the restlessness in her heart. "I've made it very clear. Whether we are half-siblings or not, I've said that my mother doesn't allow me to acknowledge our kinship. Therefore, no matter how much you want to recognize me, I will not recognize you. Please don't bother Wan'er and me anymore."

It's all your fault.

Lu Nian heard Feng Lingxi say this, glared at Lu Xuan angrily. Lu Yi also agreed, "It's all your fault."

"I..."

Lu Xuan was scolded by them, not daring to utter a sound. He clearly felt that he was being looked down upon.

"Though we share the same root, why are you so quick to harm each other Big brother, second brother, aren't our parents just as disappointed in you two as sons"

Lu Nian and Lu Yi said in unison, "Shut up!"

Lu Xuan was completely speechless now, looking at Feng Lingxi and Wan'er pitifully. Feng Lingxi simply averted her eyes, refusing to meet his gaze.

"I'm serious, you don't need to say these things to me here. I'm tired of it all, just let me go."

"Why can't we recognize each other It's all because of the grievances between my father and your mother. There's no need to drag our generation and Wan'er's generation into it. You don't even know that my mother truly doesn't like her sons. The three of us have been disliked by our own mother since birth, she thinks we are just like a lump of feces. While others treat their sons as treasures, ours are treated as grass. No, not even grass."

"Is that all the daughter the Lu family has"

Wind Ling Xi heard Lu Xuan's aggrieved tone. Was this a time of patriarchal preference

“No, not only does the Lu family not have one, but even my grandmother's house doesn't. Both my maternal and paternal grandparents loved their daughters. The Nangong family has only my mother as a daughter, while the other eight are sons. My father’s family also only has sons. My maternal grandfather often said that if he had known my father's family wouldn't have a daughter, he wouldn't have married my mother off to him.”

"That's what Mother chose herself."

Lu Nian corrected, "Mother isn't always saying that if she had known that Father didn't have a daughter, no matter how handsome Father was, he wouldn't want him"

Feng Ling Xi listened to them talking about her father like this, she didn't know what to say for a moment. Was the status of a daughter of the Lu family so high

"Isn't it interesting that you're saying these things to me here"

Feng Lingxi lightly coughed twice, “Let’s go back and argue.”

Lu Nian hurriedly patted the two brothers, reprimanding them in an unpleasant tone, "Are we here to argue today"

"By the way, we have something important to tell you today."

Lu Yi didn't take Feng Lingxi's order to leave seriously at all. They weren't guests, after all. His mother had said that when dealing with girls, you need to have thick skin. If you don't have thick skin, you can't even say a word.

"What's up"

With a sigh, Feng Lingxi knew she couldn't drive them away. She could only let them have their say, resigned to their persistence.

"Well, summer is just around the corner. We wanted to ask what kind of fruits you'd like to have. Our caravan will be coming here soon, and I'll have them bring some over for you. Just let us know which summer fruits aren't available here."

What's good to eat

Wan'er spoke up, and when Lu Yi saw her, he smiled and walked forward. "Wan'er, you tell your second uncle what you want to eat, and your second uncle will get it for you."

"I ask you, do you ask me."

Wan'er pouted in displeasure, muttering grumpily, "With such a dull mind, no wonder Mother wouldn't want to be your sister."

"Wan'er, do not be rude to the guests."

Feng Lingxi opened her mouth to reprimand them, although she didn't acknowledge them as her three older brothers. After all, guests should be treated with respect, and it was inappropriate to be so rude to elders.

"It's alright, it's alright. Second Uncle is just a little foolish. So Wan'er, tell your uncle what you like to eat"

Lu Yi waved his hand, completely ignoring Wan'er's criticism of him. He hurriedly flattered this little ancestor.

I want to eat something I haven't eaten before.

"That's no problem, Uncle Two will have them bring you all the fruits that are missing here. Pears, watermelon, grapes, longan, everything."

Upon hearing this string of delicious treats, Wan'er's eyes lit up.

Okay.

Feng Lingxi watched as Wan'er instantly switched sides, her brows furrowed. She wanted to speak but couldn't get a word in.

"Your second uncle will tell you about the Lu family's business. In the future, when Wan'er grows up and goes out, she only needs to ask them for help."

"Okay."

Li Yi pulled Wan'er aside and started chatting with her about food. Once Wan'er started talking about food, her entire attitude changed. She kept calling Li Yi "second uncle" and laughing, making Li Yi's eyes almost squint shut. Feng Lingxi wanted to join the conversation several times but couldn't find a way in. She hadn't seen Wan'er this talkative and happy in a long time.

"Sister, look how cute Wan'er is. She will have five uncles loving her in the future, isn't that wonderful"

Lu Nian looked at Feng Lingxi, his eyes full of tenderness, "With us brothers here, your time here will be much better. If anyone bullies you in the future, we three will protect you too. How good is that."

Feng Lingxi remained silent. The brothers of the Lu family were good, but their father had abandoned her and her mother in the past. Her mother had said she wouldn't recognize him, so how could she

"Can you tell me if your parents had you right after they got married"

"That's right, one a year, you're the youngest."

“So, when my mother was with your father, she was already married to him.”

Feng Lingxi murmured to herself, "Three years after they got married, my father went out and met your mother. That must have been around then," Lu Nian nodded in agreement.he had to constantly change men for her own benefit, making herself like a woman from Qing Lou.Just because Feng Lingxi is a legitimate daughter, does that mean she deserves better luck than others"Th...
