Chapter 111 Requesting to be Expelled from the Lu Family

The atmosphere in Rongshou Hall was solemn.

Wang Min sat at the top with a stern face, and Lu Song next to her also had a bad look on his face.

Sitting on the lower left were Lu Bai and his wife, Zhou Fang had an indignant look on her face, and Master Rongshu sat on the chair on the right.

When Zhou Fang heard the news that Lu Jiangnian and Yuan Wanru had arrived, he immediately became restless: "Master, this Yuan is the woman you mentioned who brought bad luck to your marriage. She is coming to Rongshou Hall now. Will it make the old lady's condition worse?"

Master Rongshu remained motionless, and said calmly, "Of course, the farther away you are, the better it will be for the old lady."

"However, the key issue lies in the dissolution of the kinship relationship. Only in this way can the connection be completely severed, and the old lady will definitely wake up."

Lu Jiangnian, who had just stepped into the room, did not miss these words. He glared at Rong Shu with a mocking look on his face: "You hypocritical bald donkey."

"Since you are so well versed in numerology, could you have predicted that you would suffer a bloody disaster today?"

Rong Shu had a calm face and clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, the world is unpredictable, I am not a god, how can I predict everything."

"Today I am involved in your mansion's affairs. If there is bloodshed, it is also the cycle of cause and effect. It is the result that this poor monk deserves. Don't worry about it."

Lu Bai stood up and said in a very disapproving tone: "Jiang Nian, Second Uncle knows that you feel bad, but your grandmother is not in a good condition. If she keeps sleeping like this without eating or drinking, she will starve to death even if she is fine."

"Master, what you said is not without reason, and we are not saying that you should rest..."

Hearing the word "rest", Lu Jiangnian was very dissatisfied.

He looked at Lu Bai fiercely: "Uncle, be careful with your words. Besides, I don't think the evil monk's words make sense."

Zhou Fang couldn't listen any longer, she stood up and glared at Lu Jiangnian angrily: "The facts are in front of us. We have asked so many people to see the old lady's illness, but we can't find the cause."

"If it's not Yuan Shi Ke's fault, then what could it be?"

"You can't disregard your grandmother's life for a woman. This is a great rebellion. Brother, please make a statement. If you are so foolish, I'm afraid that if the news spreads outside, our Lu family will become a big joke in the capital."

Since ancient times, filial piety has been the most important virtue.

Filial piety has been advocated in all dynasties. If the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery caused the death of Madam Lu for a woman, the censors would surely impeach them. Would the people of the Lu family still be able to keep their official positions?

Even if the emperor still favors Lu Song and his son, after seeing their unfilial and unwise behavior, I'm afraid he will never trust them again.

How can we guarantee the loyalty of people who are indifferent to the lives of their loved ones and have no affection in their hearts?

Lu Bai didn't believe it, and his elder brother couldn't understand this logic.

Jiang Nian is not a confused person. Doesn't he understand the seriousness of this?

"Wanru, the Lu family treats you well. With your family background, marrying Jiang Nian is marrying up."

"Now, do you have the heart to destroy our Lu family because of your selfishness?"

"Jiang Nian insists on marrying you. If my mother really..., then he will have to bear the stigma of being unfilial for the rest of his life, and his career will be over. Do you have the heart to ruin him?"

So Lu Bai told Yuan Wanru directly that as long as she was a reasonable person, she should ask to leave.

After saying this, Lu Bai looked at Lu Song again: "Brother, Jiang Nian is your only legitimate son, the eldest son of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion. It has not been easy for him to get to where he is today. Do you want to watch him destroy his future?"

"Sister-in-law, are you willing to give it up?"

Lu Bai and Yuan Wanru did not have much interaction, and there were no substantial conflicts between the two on weekdays.

After something like this happened, it was understandable that he chose to abandon her without hesitation.

Yuan Wanru tugged at Lu Jiangnian's sleeve to stop him from speaking. She looked at Lu Song intently, wanting to know what he was thinking.

Lu Song sighed, "It's really tricky when something like this happens at home."

"Mom's illness is strange, but it may not be incurable. Letting Wanru leave home is not the only option."

"Master Rongshu also said that as for matters of fate, if you believe in them, they exist; if you don't believe in them, they don't exist."

"Second brother, we can't be ungrateful and treacherous just for such ambiguous words."

Lu Bai heard the meaning behind his words and questioned dissatisfiedly: "Brother, do you mean to let it go? What if something happens to mother? Brother, can you afford the risk?"

"This is our own mother, now she is lying unconscious in bed. Brother, are you so cruel as to take this gamble?"

As he spoke, Lu Bai's eyes turned red, but he stared at Lu Song persistently with an indignant look on his face.

He has always respected Lu Song and has never looked at him like this.

Lu Song was also quite moved. Although his second brother was not very capable in all aspects, he had always been a kind and filial person. He was so worried about what had happened to their mother that he had dark circles under his eyes and probably couldn't sleep well every night.

"Don't worry, second brother. I am not such an unfilial person."

"I never thought of gambling with my mother's life."

Zhou Fang breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly: "In this case, why not write the divorce letter quickly so that the old lady can wake up soon."

"no."

Wang Min was full of vigor and decisively expressed his objection.

"We still don't know what his intention was when he said those words. Is he going to ruin Wanru's happiness in this way?"

"She is not your child. You don't feel sorry for her, but I do."

"Has the Marquis become so confused? How can you bear to treat Yuanchuan's child like this?"

Wang Min looked at Lu Song in disbelief, as if she didn't recognize him anymore.

Zhou Fang sneered, "Sister-in-law usually pretends to be virtuous, but now she doesn't pretend anymore."

"You can change your daughter-in-law, but the old lady is the biological mother of the eldest brother and the second master."

"Wan Ru just left the Lu family. At most, the Lu family will find a good family to let her live a worry-free life for the rest of her life. This matter concerns the life and safety of the old lady. Which is more important? Can't you weigh the pros and cons clearly, sister-in-law?"

"It can be seen that the filial piety in the past was just lip service."

Lu Song ignored their quarrel and looked at the silent Lu Jiangnian: "You are the person most affected by this matter. What do you think?"

Lu Jiangnian glanced at the people present indifferently. His dark eyes were gloomy and his aura was imposing. The sharpness and coldness in his eyes looked particularly terrifying.

This was also the first time Yuan Wanru saw him with this expression.

I think he almost never showed it at home in the past, so he must be very angry today.

There is a kind of person who becomes calmer the angrier they are.

He is probably that kind of person.

Then the threat he made just now and the madness he showed must have been an act!

Dog! Man! Human!

His voice was elegant and cold: "Finally you remembered to ask for my opinion."

"My wife will only be her."

He took Yuan Wanru's hand and said something domineering that shocked everyone: "It's easy to sever the kinship relationship. If you drive me out of the Lu family, then my wife will have no relationship with my grandmother, right?"

"I wonder what Dad and Second Uncle think?"

What!

Lu Song was stunned. He never expected that his son would say such a ridiculous thing.

Lu Bai was shocked: "Jiang Nian, are you crazy?"
