In the room, Mrs. Lu sat with a gloomy expression, beside her were Lu Shiming and his wife.
"When your eldest brother was leaving, he still missed you. He couldn't get your forgiveness, and he refused to close his eyes. In the end, Yanzhi told him that you never blamed him, and gave all the ginseng and medicinal materials you sent. Look, he just took his last breath..." Mrs. Lu's voice was very low.
Lu Shiming lowered his head. He didn't know about this matter. When he heard that his eldest brother had passed away, he had rushed back as soon as possible, but he still hadn't had time to see him for the last time. "Mom, I didn't blame elder brother."
"I know, you and your elder brother have always had the best relationship. Your elder brother was sorry for you in the matter of your imperial examination, and you didn't want him to see you sad when you went away." Mrs. Lu sighed softly, "Your sister-in-law It's just too sad, don't take her words to heart."
Lu Shiming said in a low voice, "Mother, I don't blame my sister-in-law, I know she didn't mean it."
"You and your wife have been away from the capital for too long, and now you have come back with great difficulty. I hope that the whole family will stay together and not be separated again." Mrs. Lu said this while looking at Mrs. Pei.
Pei said with a smile, "Mother, even if you drive us away, we won't leave."
Only then did Mrs. Lu feel relieved, "If you leave, Yanzhi will be even more sad."
"Mother, we know." Mrs. Pei said softly.
"Ever since your elder brother passed away, Mrs. Liu has been shutting herself in the house. Fortunately, she still knew that she had a pair of children, so she didn't go with your elder brother. It's not easy to delay. Even if your sister-in-law said it in the future... it's not pleasant If you don’t, you can bear it for a while, just for the sake of my old lady.” The old lady sighed, “I’ve lived to this age, and now I just want to see my family reunion, when I die, how do you want to divide it? No matter what, I can’t see it anyway.”
"Mother..." Lu Shiming knelt down in front of Mrs. Lu, "I am unfilial! I shouldn't have been outside for so many years, and I can't help with family affairs."
Mrs. Lu helped him up, "Get up! You have already helped a lot by sacrificing your fame for the sake of your family."
"Mother, it's nothing to do with the husband, he's doing it for me..." Mrs. Pei hurriedly wanted to take the responsibility on herself.
"Okay, this is all in the past." Mrs. Lu interrupted Mrs. Pei, "Let's go, it's getting late, let's go out for dinner, those children must be scared."
Mrs. Pei thought that her daughter didn't know about the past grievances between Da Fang and their third house, and she was afraid that she would be terrified.
When we arrived at the side hall, there were several children sitting aside, no one was eating, they were all waiting for Mrs. Lu.
"Zanzhi, go and see if your eldest brother and second brother are here." Mrs. Lu ordered, without mentioning Mrs. Lu at all.
Lu Lingzhi and Lu Tingzhi sent Mrs. Lu back to the house. Mrs. Lu was not reconciled, she took the hands of her two sons and cried, "I just can't swallow this breath. Your father died for the Lu family, so why should they just sit back and enjoy it?" , Yanzhi, Tingzhi, you are my sons, don't you understand what mother is thinking?"
"Mother, we all know, but that's the third uncle." Lu Tingzhi said, he has been with his father since he was a child, and he is clear about what happened back then. He doesn't think his father did anything wrong, but he also feels that the third uncle didn't let his father down. Fang, to be honest, it was indeed the third uncle who was wronged.
Mrs. Lu cried and cursed, "Are you going to speak for outsiders now?"
"Tingzhi, you go to the old lady's side first, don't make grandma too sad." Lu Lingzhi sat down on the grand master's chair, and sent his brother out.
Only their mother and son were left in the house.
"Mother, what do you think Third Uncle owes us?" Lu Lingzhi looked at his mother and asked in a low voice.
Mrs. Lu looked at her most valued son, and asked tearfully, "What benefits did the third house give you? You want to help them like this? The Lu family has today, and what they did, it's all about you and your father What they are doing, why do they get benefits when they come back?"
"If the third uncle hadn't sacrificed his fame and fame back then, our Lu family would have dispersed long ago. The third uncle could have been a high-ranking official and a rich salary. He gave up for this family. Mother, my father and I have done so much, not just For my own sake, it is for everyone in the Lu family to live a better life, and the third uncle also considered the Lu family, so he didn't tell about the change of the test paper." Lu Lingzhi said in a deep voice.
Mrs. Lu said bitterly, "I just can't be reconciled..."
"Mother, what are you reconciled to? Do you blame your father for refusing to see you before he died? My father concealed it from the whole family and assumed that he was responsible for selling the test papers to others. Even the old lady doesn't know that it was you who did it to me." Third Uncle, why do you hate Third Uncle?" Lu Lingzhi asked in a low voice.
Mrs. Lu's complexion changed, she looked at her son in shock, "How do you know?"
"I guess, it's impossible for eldest brother to treat third uncle like this. You didn't betray third uncle for the sake of the Lu family, you just did it for personal gain. You are afraid that third uncle will pass the exam, and that third uncle is better than eldest. Mother, third uncle There is nothing owed to us." Lu Lingzhi said in a low voice.
"You... You have to be like your father, and blame me, a mother, for outsiders, right?" Mrs. Lu's shoulders trembled, her face turned pale with anger.
Lu Lingzhi said, "I won't treat you like this, mother, I just hope you don't vent your grievances on others."
"What benefits does the third room give you?" Mrs. Lu asked sharply.
"Before my father died, I must help third uncle, mother." Lu Lingzhi looked at her, "If mother wants to take advantage of this matter and take back the power of housekeeper with the old lady, my son will not agree. No, there are two aunts and three aunts at home, you should take care of your illness!"
Mrs. Lu stared at him and asked angrily, "Do you want to put me under house arrest?"
"My son doesn't dare, but I just want to ask my mother to take good care of her illness and wait for your illness to recover." Lu Lingzhi said. With his mother's current situation, if she were to take care of the house, the Lu family would be disbanded sooner or later.
"I really don't know what benefit Sanfang has given you father and son..." Mrs. Lu cried, "I am your mother. Your father has neglected me for more than ten years because of Sanfang. Do you want to do the same?"
Ever since Lu Shiming left the capital, Mr. Lu has completely neglected Mrs. Ma, and he didn't even go further into her room. How could she not hate Sanfang? Isn't everything she does for their good? Why don't you understand her intentions at all.
Lu Lingzhi stood up and said softly, "I won't treat you like this, mother, grandma is still waiting for me, you should have a good rest, I will come to see you tomorrow."
