"Died young... Haha, that's what people say to the outside world. Most people think that my unfilial son died young. Only a few families know the truth of that year."
Old Madam Lu's gaze became far-reaching. She withdrew her gaze from afar and looked back at Tang Xinluo's face.
"I've heard about you and Yuchen... After all these years, I didn't expect that you were the one who saved his child. This is your fate. Xinluo, do you still remember how old Yuchen was when you saved him?"
Tang Xinluo thought about it and frowned, "Less than ten years old?"
The old lady nodded, "To be exact, he had just turned nine at that time."
"Nine years old, so young..."
Thinking of the thin boy in her memory, Tang Xinluo couldn't help but feel distressed.
At such a young age, he had to face the threat of kidnappers, but he was so strong that he actually escaped on his own.
"Yes, he was so young at that time. Xinluo, they say that family disgrace should not be made public, but you are now the daughter-in-law of our Lu family. There are some things that grandma thinks it is time for you to know. I hope that you are not a dodder who only depends on Yuchen. I hope that you can grow up and support and encourage him from behind."
Lu Yuchen is a man, and as a man, he hopes to keep all threats out of his home.
But Mrs. Lu is different. She has faced the most dangerous situations with Mr. Lu.
She believes that a woman needs to be more than just gentle, virtuous and docile.
She also needs to be tough, unyielding and independent.
A woman should be gentle yet strong. Only such a woman can stand shoulder to shoulder with a strong man.
She came back this time because the time God gave her was running out. However, the Lu family still faced numerous potential threats.
Originally, she decided to cut the Gordian knot and let Tang Xinluo leave Lu Yuchen.
But now, seeing Xiao Youyou and Tang Xinluo, Mrs. Lu decided to give it a try.
Try to change Tang Xinluo, hoping that she can become the support behind Lu Yuchen after his death.
"Grandma..." Tang Xinluo's eyes revealed a firm look.
"Be good, listen to grandma." Old Mrs. Lu interrupted her confession. Her face was very moving and sad as she recalled the past. "What grandma wants to tell you now is a past event that the Lu family has never wanted to mention."
"Yuchen's father is the only son of me and my grandfather. We named him Huanting, worked hard to train him, and placed high hopes on him. It can be said that the child is perfect, but at the same time, he is imperfect. Because he has always been so outstanding in his studies and career, my grandfather and I ignored his emotional growth."
"That child, he... he later said that he never felt the warmth of family from me and the old man. Although he married the daughter of the Zhuo family, he said that was not what he wanted. But we always thought that it was just because he was young and unsettled. Although he showed his dissatisfaction with Yarong, at least he and his wife still respected each other."
"Until one night, when Yarong was pregnant with Yuchen, she woke up in the middle of the night with a sudden pain in her abdomen and fell on the side of the bed. She fell there for most of the night until she was found by Aunt Zhang... That was when Yarong realized for the first time that her husband had secretly left home in the middle of the night."
"He left in the middle of the night, where did he go...?" Tang Xinluo had an answer in her mind, but she didn't quite believe it.
His wife was pregnant, but the husband sneaked away every night.
"Humph, where else could he go? He went to another woman's home! At that time, that woman's belly was two months bigger than Yarong's!" (To be continued)
