"I didn't even know my parents had moved back to their own home. They came here as soon as they got off the train..." Lu Qingquan smiled sheepishly, looking embarrassed.

Lin Shufang brought over a bowl of mung bean soup, smiling as she said, "This is your home too, Qingquan! Drink some mung bean soup, you must be feeling hot!"

"Thank you, ma'am."

Lu Qingquan bowed slightly to accept the mung bean soup, but didn't rush to drink it. He looked at Lu Mo, who was sitting silently to the side, and then his gaze moved down to see the two legs hanging limply. A look of joy flashed in Lu Qingquan's eyes, and he quickly lowered his head to drink the mung bean soup.

As soon as he returned from training, he inquired about Lu Mo's injuries, ostensibly under the pretense of caring for his cousin. The answer he received was that Lu Mo could no longer stand up and therefore could not return to the army.

What good is it if someone is disabled and can't even stand up?

Lu Qingquan could hardly contain his joy. Ever since he joined the army, he had prayed countless times that Lu Mo would get into trouble, preferably with his arm or leg broken. Heaven has finally heard his prayers and granted his wish!

"How can we get him back properly?" The old man was still resentful about Lu Qingquan's sudden return home.

Why come back when it's neither a holiday nor a festival?

"I was worried about Lu Mo's injuries and wanted to come back to see him," Lu Qingquan replied sincerely, his gaze shifting to Lu Mo, looking very concerned.

Lin Shufang felt a warmth in her heart, realizing that Lu Qingquan still cared about his son. He only had one family visit leave a year, and he made a special trip from afar to visit his son. Although Yue Hongxia and her husband made her feel uncomfortable, Lu Qingquan's actions moved Lin Shufang.

She even felt that she had misunderstood Lu Qingquan before. Perhaps Qingqing had also misunderstood. Lu Qingquan cared so much about his son, how could he possibly curse his son to be crippled behind his back?

The old man's expression softened a bit. His second grandson was much more sensible than his second son and his wife, but he was still not quite comfortable with it.

“Since you’ve gone to the army, you should focus on training. You’re not a doctor, and you can’t help your brother if you come back. If you really care about your brother, you should train hard in the army and strive for good results. Don’t bring shame to the Lu family!”

The old man gave him a heartfelt lecture, but he felt terrible. His most promising grandson had fallen. Although Qingqing said she could help Lu Mo get back on his feet, no one could see how things would turn out.

Lu Mo injured his bones and muscles, and it was already a great blessing that he could stand up. But if he wanted to return to the army, simply being able to stand up was far from enough.

The old man had no other desires. He only hoped that Lu Mo could take care of himself and that he could accept it even if Lu Mo couldn't return to the army.

He still felt regret.

Lu Qingquan is no match for Lu Mo in the end. Lu Qingxi from the third son's family has no interest in joining the army at all. It seems that the Lu family has no one who can take over!

"Your brother did very well in the army. He always came in first place in competitions and won numerous military merits. I don't expect you to be as successful as your brother, but at least don't disgrace the Lu family's reputation, understand?"

The old man looked stern, and Lu Qingquan responded meekly, bowing his head slightly to hide the resentment in his eyes.

So what if Lu Mo is capable?

It's not like it's crippled anymore!

Now the Lu family can only rely on him, hmph... he is definitely no worse than Lu Mo!

Just you wait and see!

"Grandpa, I just participated in the training camp, and I think there's a high chance I'll be selected for the special forces." Lu Qingquan was eager to prove himself to the old man, so he brought up the undecided matter again.

The old man was stunned for a moment, then asked incredulously, "You've been selected for the special forces? Really?"

It's not that he looks down on his grandson, but with Lu Qingquan's cowardly appearance, which special forces team would want him?

More like a cowardly team!
