Lu Mingshu stood blankly at the door until Hui Niang hugged her: "Miss, don't be sad..."
Lu Mingshu wasn't sad. To her, her father was just a shadow that existed in fantasy. She had never seen her before, so she couldn't talk about feelings. The reunion she had been longing for had come to nothing, and seeing her grandpa and mother being bullied, another emotion surged in her heart.
"Huiniang." She said.
"Um?"
"Why do they look down on grandpa and mother?"
Hui Niang froze for a moment.
Lu Mingshu raised his head and looked at her seriously: "Because you are dressed beautifully, do you look good?"
"of course not… "
"Is that because of money?"
"..." Hui Niang sighed, "Not only rich, but also powerful. Miss, you don't know what the head of a faction represents. They are warriors, and they are not from the same world as us. Let's say that Dongyue is the most powerful It is not the King of Dongyue, but Tianhai Pavilion, and even the successor of the King of Dongyue has to be nodded."
"So powerful..." Lu Mingshu murmured.
"Well, although I don't know what kind of school the master is, but even if it's not as good as Tianhai Pavilion, it's not something we ordinary people can afford to mess with."
The two were talking, when suddenly Lu Qingyi's voice came from the room: "Father! Daddy!"
Hui Niang's heart skipped a beat, and she hurried inside.
When she entered the door, Hui Niang was shocked. I saw Mr. Lu lying on the table, his personnel unknown, and bloodstains all over his clothes.
Lu Qingyi has lost her position and is in a hurry.
Hui Niang hurriedly pressed her: "Madam, calm down, and find the doctor first."
After being reminded by her, Lu Qingyi came to her senses: "Doctor, yes, tell Ah Sheng to find the doctor!"
The doctor came quickly, gave Mr. Lu his pulse, but walked away: "Forgive me for my poor medical skills, I can't do anything."
Lu Qingyi was so startled that she burst into tears again.
Qingfeng Town is just a small town with thousands of households. There is only such a doctor.
As soon as the doctor stepped over the threshold, the corner of his clothes was pulled, and he looked down, but it was the youngest daughter of the family.
Looking at the child who was about the same size as his granddaughter, the doctor softened his heart and said softly: "Son, it's not that I don't treat your grandpa, it's really impossible to save him!"
Lu Mingshu raised his head and said: "Doctor, at least you can prescribe some medicine for my grandpa, give me an injection, right? Grandpa always said that you have to do your best to obey the destiny."
The doctor was taken aback.
"We all know that grandpa is seriously ill, so even if we don't like it, we don't blame you."
The doctor hesitated for a moment.
Hearing their conversation, Lu Qingyi nodded repeatedly and bowed down: "Yes, Doctor Hu, you are also an elder who watched us grow up, please show kindness."
The doctor sighed, and retracted the foot that had just stepped over the threshold: "Then try."
After prescribed the prescription and the golden needle, Lu Qingyi thanked her a lot, and ordered her servant, Asheng, to send the doctor back.
The mother and daughter kept watch until midnight, and Old Master Lu woke up leisurely.
Lu Qingyi was overjoyed and saddened, and sat crying.
Seeing her like this, Old Master Lu hated iron for being weak: "You...you..." His lips were trembling at this moment, and he couldn't speak.
Seeing this, Lu Qingyi was horrified: "Father, don't be angry, it's all my fault..."
Old Mrs. Lu closed his eyes, and after a while, he calmed down.
He opened his eyes, beckoned Lu Mingshu to come over, and gently stroked the top of her head, with sadness in his eyes.
It's all my own fault. There is only one daughter, who has been spoiled and spoiled since she was a child, and has raised Lu Qingyi to be weak and incompetent. Right now, the son-in-law has abandoned his daughter, and the granddaughter is so young. If he leaves, who will they rely on for their weak mothers and young children
Thinking about it, Old Master Lu's cloudy eyes were filled with tears.
"Grandfather, don't cry." Lu Mingshu held his hand and looked up, "I heard Hui Niang said that they can bully you because they are warriors. I also want to practice martial arts. When the time comes, they will bully you." How to bully you, I will bully you back."
Old Mrs. Lu was stunned, touched her head, and managed to say a few words: "This... don't... tell others..."
Also called Lu Qingyi, pointed at the small bedside cabinet, waited for her to take out the deed of the house from inside, confessed some words, and finally said: "After I go, you...recruited Asheng...to set up a household, take care of it..."
Before he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and held his breath.
"Daddy! Daddy!" Lu Qingyi yelled twice, but couldn't help but burst into tears when she didn't get a response.
When Hui Niang heard the crying, she took a breath and wiped away her tears: "The old man has gone..."
After three days of vigil, wearing hemp and filial piety, when Old Master Lu's funeral was over, Lu Qingyi was so sad that she fell ill.
I thought it was just a minor illness, but from February to May, it didn't get better, but it got worse and worse.
Lu Qingyi was originally a weak girl in the boudoir, she lost her body when she gave birth to her daughter, and now she has been sick for several months, and her whole body is thin and out of shape.
Mrs. Lu knew that her daughter was weak-tempered and definitely could not support the family. Before she left, she wanted to ask her to recruit Ah Sheng as her son-in-law so that she could rely on her. Ah Sheng is a long-term worker in the family. Because there are too many children, he was sold to their family very early and signed a long-term contract. Mrs. Lu knew he was going to die, so he didn't have time to choose a son-in-law. Although Ah Sheng was a servant, he knew everything.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he left, Lu Qingyi became very ill. In addition, she was thinking about the matter of reconciliation, let alone recruiting a husband, she didn't even have the will to live.
In May, Dr. Hu couldn't prescribe any more prescriptions. Lu Qingyi knew that she was not good, so she recruited Hui Niang and made plans.
Hui Niang was taken aback: "Ma'am, think twice!" Lu Qingyi actually said that she was going to find Fu Ze. But now she is so sick that she is half dead, how can she go on the road? Even on the road, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it through!
Lu Qingyi burst into tears: "I'm like this, I can't get better. But I'm gone, what about Mingshu? She's only seven years old! Our Lu family is weak, we don't even have a clan member. Although Ze is ruthless to me, but Anyway, it's her biological father, so now, besides entrusting him, who else can give the child to?"
"Madam fell ill only because of excessive pain. If you take good care of your illness, you will recover naturally. What's more, if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. Fu Ze is ungrateful and will definitely remarry. It may not be good to leave the lady to him. !"
"Don't comfort me, I know my own illness." Lu Qingyi shook her head, not listening to Hui Niang's persuasion, "Call Ah Sheng to come."
Lu Qingyi was weak all her life, but now she is dying of illness, but she is tough once. Ask Ah Sheng to find a middleman, sell all the land and ancestral houses, and exchange them for silver taels. She kept most of it as travel expenses, and distributed the rest to Hui Niang and the others as severance pay.
Hui Niang's good words didn't make her change her mind, so she just listened to her and hired a car. But he himself refused to leave, sent Xiaohuan home, and then escorted their mother and daughter into Sichuan with Asheng.
It was only at this time that Lu Mingshu knew that his biological father was in Jiuyao Palace in Xichuan.
