After thinking about it, Mao smiled wryly and said, "If it's something else, we can't just ignore it. Are we a family? Otherwise, it won't be good to spread the reputation! But, this is a serious crime of treason. , who can do anything? To be honest, I still have this heart in my throat now! I am afraid that someone will kick in the door in my sleep and seize the house, and count us all in it! My mother is so confused, I don’t know how to fight What an idea!"
When Mu Qing heard this, she knew Sanfang's attitude. Even though it was true, she couldn't help but sigh secretly when she thought of the coldness of the family relationship, nodded and said: "Who said no! Anyway, let's see what the old lady is tonight Let's talk about it!"
"That's fine!" Mao also nodded, and said with a wry smile: "How can the old lady not know such a simple truth? Sigh, I don't know what she thinks! This arena, I'm afraid someone will fight!"
Mu Qing was also silent. Indeed, it is impossible for Mrs. Lu not to know the pros and cons, but still putting on this posture, it really feels like "knowing that it can't be done".
But it's not about her alone, it's about the whole family!
However, if she really wants to make a fuss if she really wants to, it will be a troublesome thing.
"Xiaoshu's child is clever, why not call her here and listen to what she has to say?" Mao couldn't help but said again.
Mu Qing couldn't help laughing "puchi", and said with a smile: "How decent is this! Third brother and sister, don't worry too much, let's talk about it tonight!"
Mrs. Mao also felt that his proposal was a bit funny, so he smiled mischievously, sat down for a while, and then left.
Lu Wenxuan was originally busy and couldn't go home for dinner, but after hearing what Mu Qing sent, he sneered slightly, changed his mind, and explained the matter to others, reckoning that he would go home soon after dinner.
The people from the two rooms came to Mingqing Garden, the food was ready, and Mrs. Lu had been waiting for a long time.
"You are all here! If you don't come again, I will ask someone to invite you again, and the food will be cold!"
The old lady Lu was smiling, and she was wearing a dark maroon Ning silk jacket skirt with grape-wrapped branches, which looked very rich and gentle. She had simple and generous temples, and a simple golden hairpin with five blessings was inserted on her temples. Coupled with the expression and tone, she is quite a loving mother.
It's a pity that in the eyes of Lu Wenxuan, Lu Xiaoshu and others, it was just a superficial illusion after all.
"Keep mother waiting for a long time!"
"Yes, yes, I didn't expect it to be delayed!"
The crowd laughed reluctantly, showing a little alienation.
After chatting for a while, they all sat down.
During the banquet, everyone sat in a state of distress, thinking that Mrs. Lu would say something, but she didn't say anything, just smiled blindly and asked "to eat more", and asked someone to bring out the good wine that had been preserved for more than ten years, and ordered The maid pours it.
It wasn't until after dinner and drinking tea in the side hall that she slowly brought the topic to Lu Wenhui.
First he lamented the lack of a second room tonight, then lamented that the second room was pitiful, and then finally talked about Lu Wenxuan.
"Boss, I have never begged you for anything, and I will let go of this old face today! No matter how bad the second child is, he is also a descendant of the Lu family and your father's son. For your father's sake, please save him." Now! You are the Queen's benefactor, please help me to intercede, and spare his life! Even if you are dismissed from office, you will be beaten! As long as you save his life! Oh, in the future, I will not trouble you in the future, I have my own money to feed him... all I want is to keep him alive!"
The old lady Lu couldn't help crying as she spoke, and took out her handkerchief to wipe her tears.
This son was the most in her heart, and the two hit it off especially when they planned to marry Lu Wenxuan together.
Lu Wenxuan didn't say a word, holding the teacup in his hand, through the misty tea, his eyes were deserted and indifferent.
He is a man without compassion, especially when dealing with enemies who have harmed him.
He doesn't speak, and others dare not speak, and there is no need to speak.
There was no sound in the side hall, except for the weeping of old lady Lu.
After crying for a while, the old lady Lu said with tears in her eyes: "Boss, I know that I have done many things to be sorry to you! Today, in front of everyone, I will accompany you! Besides, to put it bluntly, if you don't I was what I was back then, and I am not what you are today! All your sufferings have passed, and you are still here now! For the sake of our family, you should turn over this page!"
Then he said to Lu Wenshi: "Third brother, that's your second brother, please hurry up and beg your elder brother, please help him!"
A slight sneer appeared on the corner of Lu Wenxuan's mouth, and he stared coldly at Lu Wenshi.
Lu Wenshi just wanted to protect himself and would not be willing to wade into this muddy water. Seeing his mother and elder brother staring at him, he smiled shyly, lowered his head and whispered, "What mother says is what she says. My son is useless, let mother down..."
What he said was ambiguous and opportunistic. If it was normal, Mrs. Lu would have changed her face and reprimanded her. At this moment, she felt dark, but she endured it and begged Lu Wenxuan: "Boss, just treat me like a mother! Is that all right?" !"
Lu Wenxuan still didn't speak, and didn't even turn his eyes to her.
The old lady Lu's one-man show was so embarrassing. Thinking of her son in prison, she couldn't help but feel a great pain in her heart. She gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, tell me! What do you want to do to help me? As long as you Said, if I can do it, I will do it! You, you want me to kneel down for you—and I will!"
"Mother!" Lu Wenshi couldn't help but change his face, and looked at the old lady Lu in surprise, wondering what it was like in a daze.
"You can't!" Lu Wenshi blurted out. He only knew that if his own mother really did this, how could he face others in this house in the future? How can I still hold my head up!
The old lady Lu sneered in her heart, glared at Lu Wenshi bitterly, and still said with tears in her eyes: "Boss, I, I will kneel down for you right now!"
Lu Wenshi stood up abruptly, his face pale with anger. Not knowing what to do, Mao stood up and looked at her husband blankly.
A sudden resentment arose in Lu Wenshi's heart. He knew that the old lady Lu was forcing him, forcing him to intercede with Lu Wenxuan with her, forcing him to beg Lu Wenxuan for the sake of his second brother without dignity, and even kowtow in front of him!
But why would he do this
"Mother! You are too partial!" Lu Wenshi was full of grief and disappointment, and said bitterly: "For the second brother, you really worked hard! Why don't you think about us? The second brother committed a serious crime of treason. How can it be so easy to get rid of the crime! Instead of saying that you are worried about us innocent people being implicated, you force us to jump into that fire pit! Is there such a vicious mother like you in the world! "
"What are you talking about!" Mrs. Lu felt as if she had received a heavy blow in her heart, she stared at Lu Wenshi with a pale face, and said in a trembling voice: "Do you know that you are stabbing my heart with a knife! What you said Can I not know? But now that you are not implicated, it means that your second brother’s crime is not serious. He must have been wronged. He said something, he is your own brother!"
Lu Wenshi sneered again and again: "I've never heard of this kind of thing, and there are people who are wronged! It's not like you didn't know about the trouble with the second sister-in-law last night, so you still think he was wronged?"
The old lady Lu was stunned, and suddenly she had nothing to say, but she cried unceasingly, reprimanding Lu Wenshi for having no conscience. Lu Wenshi endured his mother's eccentricity for many years and to the end, retorting every sentence, the more excited he was, the more excited he became, the more he couldn't stop! It was noisy!
Instead, Lu Wenxuan, Mu Qing, and Lu Xiaoshu's family became outsiders, quietly watching the show with cold eyes.
"If you haven't settled the accounts of your mother and son, just continue to calculate! We have no interest in listening to it anymore! It seems that we should leave!"
Lu Wenxuan got up gracefully, and said coldly.
"You—" Old Madam Lu was stunned, and she held back her verbal fight with Lu Wenshi. Then she remembered today's business, and wanted to plead with Lu Wenxuan, but was interrupted by Lu Wenxuan raising his hand.
"Just give up on this idea, I don't have that great ability to save him! There is a saying, 'Heaven's sins are forgiven, but self-inflicted sins cannot be lived', don't you know? This is what he asked for, and he can't complain Others!"
Lu Wenxuan said with a sneer, and said coldly: "By the way, the reason why we were not implicated is because everyone in the capital knows the grievances between us, plus my credit in front of the queen, and the child Xiaoshu Inadvertently did a great job last night! That's all I have to say, let's go!"
Lu Wenxuan gave Mrs. Lu a cold look, and greeted his wife and children.
The old lady Lu was so angry that she couldn't say a word of pleading words under his cold and mocking expression!
Mrs. Mao remembered that there was no grievance between his family and his second brother's family that was big enough to draw a clear line. He felt anxious and asked: "Brother, brother! What about our family? Our family will not be implicated, right? We ,"
She glanced at Mrs. Lu, and said, "We have never gotten along with the second room, and there are many grievances and grievances!"
Lu Wenshi was like a frightened bird, his heart had already been raised again. His wife's words were asking what was in his heart, so he held his breath and looked at Lu Wenxuan nervously.
"Hehe!" Lu Wenxuan cast a mocking glance at Old Madam Lu, suddenly feeling sad for her in his heart, this is her son!
He used to wish he could tear her into pieces to dispel the hatred in his heart, but now all hatred and resentment have disappeared, and his heart is at peace.
There was no need for him to do anything else, she had already received the cruelest revenge in the world.
There is nothing more sad than the betrayal of a beloved biological child, and nothing is more distressing than watching one's own flesh and blood turn against each other! There is nothing more painful than watching your son die but being helpless!
She tasted all these tastes at the same time.
"It depends on what you do!" Lu Wenxuan said lightly.
"Thank you, big brother, thank you very much, big brother!" Lu Wenshi's eyes lit up, and he thanked repeatedly. Although he didn't know what to do, it was obvious that Lu Wenxuan knew. Looking back, he will naturally beg him again...
