Chapter 465: Give a Slap and a Sweet Date
Seeing that Shan Yu didn't say anything, Lu Gao took it upon herself to have two maids serve her tea and also gave her a face-saving favor, directly changing her from a maid to a concubine.
"You two must serve the young lady well and not mess up the hierarchy." Lu Gaoshi made the final decision.
This left Shan Yu with no reason to continue opposing.
Qiuyue and Qiushuang were obviously well trained by Lu Gaoshi. They didn't lose their sense of proportion at all.
After this matter was resolved, Mrs. Lu Gao asked her personal nanny, Nanny Gao, to take out the keys, cards, account books and other items and put them in front of Shan Yu.
She first glanced at Shan Yu's obviously happy expression, and then said quietly, "Our Lu family, although not a century-old family, is also a family of poetry and literature. Since this new bride has entered the family, I will not be stingy with the things that should be given."
"Ms. Shan, these are all the assets of my Lu family. I will hand them over to you today. From today on, you will be the mistress of this mansion."
As he said this, he pushed the things towards Shan Yu.
Shan Yu was originally very unhappy because of the matter of the two concubines, but he did not expect that things would take a turn for the better and he would suddenly get the power to manage the family.
You know, her mother hasn't gotten the power to manage the family yet.
I thought that after the separation, her mother, as the wife of the principal wife, would naturally become the head of the Shan family, but her father didn't know what was going on. During this period of time, he actually took the power of the head of the family into his own hands.
If it weren't for planning her wedding, her mother might not have been able to get so much money to buy her things.
Originally, she thought that she would have to stay in the Lu family for a few years like her mother before she could become the head of the family. She didn't expect that it would be so easy to get the power of the head of the family on the second day.
She hadn't even said a word yet.
Thinking in this way, it wasn't so unacceptable to her to have two concubines.
Since the power to manage the household is in her hands, the lives of the two concubines are also in her hands.
If they dared to do anything that made her unhappy, she could deal with them in minutes.
"Thank you, mother." Shan Yu took the things with a smile.
As he touched the key that symbolized power, his inner emotions were beyond words.
Lu Xin's patience had run out, so he said goodbye to his mother and went out to do some work. Shan Yu returned to his own courtyard after serving Mrs. Lu Gao breakfast.
Seeing her leave, Qiuyue Qiushuang also followed her.
When only Lu Gao was left, Grandma Gao said, "Why did the old lady hand over the power of the family so early? What if, what if this young lady is not trustworthy, what should we do?"
Madam Gao was Lu Gao's dowry nanny. She had never been married and worked for Lu Gao wholeheartedly. She was the person she trusted the most.
Mrs. Lu Gao glanced at Grandma Gao with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
How could she not know the benefits of holding power? However, these are extraordinary times.
"You know, I almost emptied my dowry to prepare for this wedding. If it weren't for the people in the clan who saw that Xin'er was promising and Xin'er's Yue family was not unknown, and helped out, I'm afraid this wedding wouldn't have gone so smoothly."
"I want to be the head of the family now, but what can I do? Although Xin'er is a favorite minister now, his salary is no more than that of other people. And Xin'er is now working under the Emperor's eyes, so he can't do anything beyond the rules. If I don't hand over the power of the family, how can I maintain the dignity of this mansion?"
