The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife

Chapter 2614 - 98: Li Luru Must Not Marry Prince An

Yang Aoshuang looked very displeased, unexpected that this brat heard so much.

"Why don’t you spill, what’s really going on?" Li Shan was very annoyed, seeing Yang Aoshuang was a little off, and combining Li Mengru’s previous words, he originally had 60% belief, now it’s 80%.

Yang Aoshuang gritted her teeth, "I said Leru is my daughter, and she is. This is really amusing, I can’t even recognize my own daughter, instead I need an illegitimate daughter to help me recognize her, truly laughable!"

"Mother, why don’t you just acknowledge it?" Li Mengru didn’t expect Yang Aoshuang to deny it, "Father won’t blame you for not taking good care of younger sister. It’s just because Li Luru is about to become Princess Consort An, Father wants to get to the truth of the matter."

"Heh..." Yang Aoshuang sneered, "Is it your father who wants to find out, or are you trying to stir up trouble? Li Mengru, let me tell you, as long as I’m here, you and your mother can forget about causing any waves."

"You..." Li Shan was furious, "Look at what you’re saying, bickering with a child, are you even fit to be the Li Family matriarch?"

"Who else but me is fit?" Yang Aoshuang angrily pointed at the group of concubines, "Her, or her? A child? She’s already seventeen this year, still call herself a child? If Ming’er said this, I absolutely wouldn’t say this."

And Ming’er is the eldest son of the Second Young Master Li.

"You..." Li Shan waved his hand, "Fine, I won’t say more, I’ll ask you again, is Li Luru my daughter or not?"

"Yes!" Yang Aoshuang thought, I’ll keep saying she’s my daughter, what can anyone do to me?

"You..." Li Shan was furious, "You’re still denying it, you’re still deceiving me?"

"Father!" Third Young Master Li stepped forward, "What’s the difference if she is or isn’t? She’s grown up in our family, she is our daughter, and the future Princess Consort An comes from our Li Family, that’s enough. Why must you clarify who she is? What benefit does it bring? Whether she is or not, even if mother tells you she’s not now, what can you do, send her back, or drive her out?"

"Of course we can’t drive her out." Li Shan said subconsciously.

"If she doesn’t leave the Li Family, what is the point of father getting to the bottom of it?" Third Young Master Li continued, "Our family causing a fuss over this matter, are we making ourselves a laughingstock, or expecting someone to come knocking?"

This statement carried significant implications.

Seeing Li Shan wavered by these words, Li Mengru quickly said, "Third brother’s words are wrong. True or false must be clarified, otherwise when Prince An finds out we’ve married a fake daughter over, the entire Li Family will likely not escape Prince An’s wrath, let alone you and me."

"Right!" Li Shan steadied his resolve, quickly said, "Second girl is right, our Li Family comes from a merchant background, and reputation is the most important thing, such matters cannot be hidden."

The Eldest Young Master Li then asked, "Father, what will we do after revealing the truth?"

Li Shan fell silent for a while upon hearing this, Li Mengru grew a bit anxious seeing this, wanting to say something but was stopped by Concubine Sun.

The room was silent for a while, and then Li Shan finally spoke, "No, my plan is certainly not to tell Prince An, but not to let Li Luru marry Prince An either. Think about it, she’s not of our Li Family bloodline, after marriage, how could she help you all? Even if she doesn’t know her own identity, secrets won’t remain under wraps forever. If she truly marries over, when she finds out her lineage one day, she might blame us for keeping it from her."
