"Can't go wrong, these eyebrows, these eyes... can't go wrong." Seeing Meng Zezhi's first glance, Zhan Shuzhen was very excited. She leaned on crutches, raised her feet and walked towards Meng Zezhi crookedly.
Meng Zezhi subconsciously stretched out his hand to support her, his mouth twitched, and he was speechless for a long time.
Perhaps feeling panicked, Zhan Shuzhen grabbed Meng Zezhi's hand and held her.
It was such a pair of hands, with protruding blood vessels, yellowish fingernails, scarred and covered with calluses, making Zhan Shuzhen's eyes red.
She reached out and touched Meng Zezhi's face, and wept bitterly: "You are suffering, it's your mother who can't help you and lost you..."
Meng Zezhi was at a loss: "No, I actually had a pretty good life."
This is what the predecessor said in his heart. He is a person who is easy to satisfy. The old Chinese doctor has never treated him badly.
Zhan Shuzhen had seen the information passed down by Liu Jiang, which recorded the life of the Lin family in detail, and she had a steel scale in her heart.
So when she heard this, she just thought that Meng Zezhi was comforting her, and she cried even more.
This scene of a mother's kindness and filial piety is particularly annoying in the eyes of Lu Yanfeng's family, especially Lu Yanfeng's youngest daughter Lu Qing, who hates it even more. Before the truth of the matter was exposed, Zhan Shuzhen's most beloved junior was her. Anything delicious or useful is close to her.
Don't look at Zhan Shuzhen as just a woman, but she has also sweated and shed blood for the country. She only said that she has participated in the training and transformation of nearly 270,000 birth attendants in the more than ten years of her work in the Ministry of Health. The traditional witches and wives have reduced the maternal mortality rate by more than 80% after the establishment of the Hua Kingdom.
She retired from the position of Deputy Minister of Health. After retirement, she enjoys ministerial-level treatment and a lot of benefits. In the past, she subsidized Lu Qing in private.
After Lu Yanfeng's identity was exposed, Zhan Shuzhen's face became cold, and she didn't want to see her, which made her very poor these days.
Of course, Lu Qing put this dissatisfaction on the head of the Lin family.
- They just can't show it yet.
Finally, Zhan Shu really had enough crying. She reached out and touched the corner of her eyes: "Look at me, I've been crying, I've been in the car for a day, and you're hungry too, let's go, go home, the family has prepared meals for you."
From start to finish, Lu Youheng didn't even have a chance to interrupt.
Taking advantage of the cooking time, Zhan Shuzhen recognized all the Lin family members.
At the end, she pointed to Lu Youheng: "This is your dad."
He pointed to Lu Yanfeng's family again: "This is your brother Lu Yanfeng, your sister-in-law Zhou Hong, your nephew Lu Hongyi, and your niece Lu Qing."
Meng Zezhi glanced at Lu Hongyi one more time. At this time, Lu Hongyi had just turned eighteen years old. It was when he was young and vigorous. He had already slept with Lu Xiaoya and was having a hot fight with Zuo Youning.
Lu Xiaoya was the idol of Lu Hongyi in her previous life. It was when she was tender and flowery. In the next few years, with the support of Lu Hongyi, Lu Xiaoya will become popular all over the country.
Zuo Youning is the only girl in the three generations of the Zuo family, and the old man of the Zuo family used to be Lu Youheng's immediate boss.
Meng Zezhi paused: "Dad."
Then he closed his mouth.
The Lin family followed suit: "Grandpa and grandpa."
The family directly put Lu Yanfeng's family aside.
The air instantly quieted down.
The Lu family probably never thought that Meng Zezhi would show his dislike for Lu Yanfeng without hesitation.
Lu Yanfeng frowned slightly, could it be that Lin Suihan thought he was Lu Youheng's biological son, so he could pull him off the horse!
Innocent.
Little did he know that he had already figured out the thoughts of Lu Youheng and his wife.
Originally, he thought that if the Lin Suihan family was honest, he wouldn't mind singing a show of brotherhood and respect with him, but now it seems—
Before he was integrated into the family, he rashly opened fire on Lu Yanfeng. With this sentence alone, Meng Zezhi had another reckless impression in Lu Youheng's mind.
He knew that what he was most worried about had happened.
Lu Youheng sighed in his heart, picked up a roast duck roll and put it into Meng Zezhi's bowl: "Try it, Quanjude's roast duck."
Meng Ze knew that.
The predecessor was too cautious, so he was overwhelmed by Lu Yanfeng's family.
Meng Zezhi obeyed and said, "Thank you, Dad."
Zhan Shuzhen looked at Lin Dayong and the others, and said with a smile: "Eat, you all eat, your own home, don't be restrained."
After experiencing Meng Zezhi's enlightenment the night before, the Lin family was extremely open and stretched their chopsticks towards the plate of roast duck rolls.
Lu Qing just watched helplessly as a plate of roast duck rolls was caught by the Lin family.
- This is her favorite dish.
Seeing the look of the Lin family eating and drinking, Lu Qing was not angry. She rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "If you like to eat, you can ask the chef at home to prepare more next time. By the way. , You must have never eaten something so delicious before, right?"
Speaking of which, as if realizing that she had said something wrong, she stuck out her tongue and closed her mouth embarrassingly.
A look of carelessness.
The Lin family invariably slowed down their movements and looked at the empty roast duck roll plate in front of them, mainly because they realized that they seemed to be a little rude.
As for Lu Qing's words, they didn't take it to heart at all. They had indeed never eaten Quanjude's roast duck, but they didn't know how many times they had eaten ginseng, bird's nest and shark fin.
For Lu Qing's age, the Lin family could barely understand her feelings.
Lu Youheng and Zhan Shuzhen frowned slightly, but they didn't break out.
Not being able to see the embarrassed look of the Lin family, Lu Qing was a little disappointed.
"By the way," Meng Zezhi seemed to remember something, he said, "Didn't we bring a lot of things from our hometown, hurry up, take them out for everyone to try."
"Hey." The Lin family immediately moved.
"This is dried shrimp and dried fish. This is the sausage made by the second daughter-in-law's family. They can be eaten after steaming for ten minutes... This is the old pickle made by the first daughter-in-law's family. You can try it."
"Okay, okay." Zhan Shu was really happy, with a kind expression on her face: "You guys have a heart."
Saying that, she stretched out her chopsticks to the bowl of old pickles.
Seeing how happy the family was, Lu Qing became more and more jealous. Scenes like Mingming and Mingming should belong to their family alone.
Almost out of her mouth, she said, "Is this what you usually eat in the countryside?"
The air was quiet again.
Zhan Shuzhen pulled her face down instantly, and was about to reprimand her when she heard Lin Xiaolu say, "Yes, our family used to live on these things, do you feel superior by poking at our family's shortcomings over and over again? "
Unexpectedly, the Lin family would have the courage to refute, Lu Qing was stunned for a moment, and immediately defended himself: "I didn't mean that..."
Lin Xiaolu's tone was not good: "Then what do you mean? You don't seem to be much younger than me, from childhood to adulthood, haven't your parents and teachers taught you to maintain a minimum respect for others? It's not very pleasant to say. Yes, if it wasn't for my father's identity change by your own grandmother, now it's your family who eat chaffyen."
Speaking of this, Lin Xiaolu's tone couldn't help but drop, she was a little uneasy, because she seemed to make the situation even more rigid.
She looked at Meng Zezhi subconsciously, and found that her father had no intention of blaming her, so she reluctantly felt relieved.
These words obviously hit Lu Qing's pain, she gritted her teeth: "You—"
"Enough." Lu Yanfeng realized that the matter had exceeded his expectations, and immediately interrupted Lu Qing's words.
Afraid of Lu Yanfeng's intimidation, Lu Qing subconsciously closed his mouth.
"Sorry," Lu Yanfeng said apologetically, "Xiaoqing just can't accept it for a while..."
What he said was a coincidence, directly avoiding all of Lin Xiaolu's criticisms, attributing the reason to the fact that the family had changed too much, and indirectly showing their family's deep affection for the Lu family, which can only be said to be playing politics.
Lu Youheng was very useful to hear these words, he wished his family and He Lele were happy.
His expression softened slightly, but his tone was sharp: "I don't want this to happen again in the future, understand?"
Lu Qing was unwilling, but she did not dare to disobey Lu Youheng, so she could only forcibly suppress the resentment in her heart: "Got it."
"It's a bit salty, but it tastes really good." Zhan Shuzhen put a chopstick of pickles into his mouth and said with a smile, "I can guarantee that there must be garlic and peppercorns in it."
The eldest daughter-in-law immediately echoed, "You're right..."
The atmosphere instantly became lively again unilaterally.
Meng Zezhi took a deep look at Lu Yanfeng's family. In the original plot, such a thing happened today.
At that time, the Lin family came to the capital with apprehension and unease. Facing the huge gap between themselves and Lu Yanfeng's family, Lu Qing's cynicism, and sensing Lu Youheng's thoughts, they couldn't have any resistance at all. It's just low self-esteem and hesitation, and then fall into a vicious cycle of death.
But now, everything is going in the right direction.
Not long after the family had dinner, the guards came to report that it was Sun Mei (Lu Yanfeng's biological mother) who was here.
"What is she here for?" Lu Youheng's tone was not good, but he was concerned about the presence of Lu Yanfeng's family, so he swallowed the words that were blasted out: "No."
"etc."
It was Meng Zezhi who spoke, and he said solemnly, "Dad, I want to see her."
Lu Youheng looked hesitant, but in the end he nodded: "Okay."
As soon as she entered the room, Meng Zezhi didn't have time to see what Sun Mei looked like when she thumped and knelt down to the Lu family.
Lu Yanfeng almost rushed up to help her up, but fortunately, he reacted in time and restrained himself abruptly.
Meng Zezhi stared at Sun Mei and took a deep breath: "It really is you."
These words fell in the ears of the Lu family, who only thought that Meng Zezhi had finally confirmed his identity by recognizing Sun Mei.
Sun Mei's back was straight: "Master Lu, Madam Lu, I am here to apologize to you."
As she said that, she gave Lu Youheng and his wife a heavy kowtow: "I'm sorry for you... I was fascinated by ghosts... I did such an unacceptable thing... It's all my fault... "
Every time she said a word, she kowtowed, and soon there was a pool of blood on the ground.
Seeing this scene, Lu Youheng frowned slightly, while Zhan Shuzhen looked on coldly.
After kneeling down with Lu Youheng and his wife, Sun Mei turned to look at Meng Zezhi, her nose and tears drenched her face, she choked up and said, "... I'm sorry for you... I've made you suffer for so many years... If it wasn't for you back then If I ignore it for a while, you won't get lost..."
"Wait—" Meng Zezhi interrupted Sun Mei's performance and confirmed, "You mean, I got lost?"
Hearing this, Sun Mei's heart throbbed subconsciously, and she barely maintained her composure: "...Yes."
"Heh." Meng Zezhi sneered, his eyes reddened: "Do you think I was only three years old back then, when I was forgetful, and after so many years, I must have forgotten about the events of that year. It's all gone."
Sun Mei's face changed dramatically.
"But I clearly remember that it was the winter of 1943, it was snowing lightly, and I hadn't eaten for a day. You took me to the market in the next county, then let go of my hand and waited for me. When I reacted, your figure had disappeared from the crowd, and I stood there from noon until the sun went down, and you didn't appear again... Now, tell me, I was lost?"
In the original plot, Sun Mei took advantage of such a loophole and concealed the fact that she had abandoned her predecessor.
After the play, Sun Mei, who returned home, chose to commit suicide by taking poison.
After Sun Mei died, recalling how she cried and repented, all the resentment that Lu Youheng and her predecessor had against her disappeared. Most importantly, the gap between the Lu family and Lu Yanfeng's family was also filled. And this became the decisive reason why Lu Youheng chose to continue training Lu Yanfeng.
It's over, it's over.
Sun Mei was paralyzed on the ground, how could this be
She shivered, but she was still hopeful, she hurriedly crawled over to Meng Zezhi, hugged his trouser legs, and wept bitterly: "Listen to me... I didn't mean to, that old old Chen became seriously ill and died. In order to treat him, the family spent all their savings and owed a lot of debt. The family couldn't open the pot... I couldn't help it. At that time, I dared to go home after seeing you being taken away... "
Lao Chen is her husband.
But now no one believed her.
"Your poor family can't open the pot, and you will throw my son away..." Zhan Shuzhen was inexhaustible: "Beast, come here, grab her for me, take her, send her to the public and public security bureau..."
"Mom," realizing that Zhan Shuzhen's situation was not right, Meng Zezhi quickly stretched out his hand to support her, sending the infuriating energy into her body as if he didn't want money: "Mom, what's the matter with you?"
Zhan Shuzhen didn't catch her breath and fainted.
"What's going on?" The scene suddenly became chaotic.
Meng Zezhi felt Zhan Shuzhen's pulse and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Fortunately it's no big deal.
Who would have thought that Zhan Shuzhen's reaction would be so intense.
It was he who underestimated the greatness of maternal love, and it was no wonder that the first main task given by his predecessor was to help him honor Zhan Shuzhen.
"Quick, bring Dr. Zhao here." Lu Youheng shouted in a hurry.
As if remembering something, Meng Zezhi looked back at Sun Mei and said in a cold voice, "Don't even think about trying to atone for suicide, you have done so much, isn't it just to keep Lu Yanfeng's position in the Lu family, huh? ."
Saying that, he bent down and hugged Zhan Shuzhen: "Dad, where is Mom's room?"
"follow me."
Sun Mei, who was about to be killed in the Lu family's house, had a split expression on her face.
