Shen Meng was a corporate drone at a large factory. While on her way to deliver a contract to a business partner, she was in a car accident.
Just as she was lying paralyzed in bed, feeling mi...
Chapter 238: One is against the other and the other is silent
No matter how much Liu Sanjin made a fuss at home, or how she asked Lu Changzhu to go to Lu Zhenping to plead for mercy, she couldn't open her mouth when she saw him. In the past, Lu Zhenping didn't make it clear that they were mother and son, and she could still rely on her status as a mother to order some things. Now she felt so guilty.
Especially now that the money she received from Shangjing was getting less and less, she was afraid that it would be cut off again. Now that Lu Zhenping had a gloomy face in front of her, she felt nervous. She didn't want to think about her son and daughter-in-law at all, but was afraid that Lu Zhenping would bring up the matter of giving her money every month.
"Zhenping, you've been home for a few months. After you told your parents everything, we rarely come to see you. We didn't even dare to visit you during the Chinese New Year. You should know that your parents are very obedient, right?"
Lu Changzhu picked up his old dry cigarette several times, but he didn't dare to smoke it. After he spoke tremblingly, his cloudy eyes stared at him tightly.
Lu Jiaxuan is his youngest son. He has been obedient and sensible since he was a child. He has become capable when he grows up. How can he not cherish him in his heart? Now the fourth son and his wife are said by the people in the village to be like rats in a stinky ditch. They dare not even go out. The fourth son's wife is pregnant. If it continues like this, something bad will happen. As
a father, he can't just watch his child suffer!
"Boss, I know you are angry. The affairs of this workshop are all managed by our Lu family. What difference does it make whether she is your wife or the fourth brother's wife? You know your brother. He has made great achievements over the years with your help. As his brother, you can't just watch him being scolded like this. He has already taken several days off from the commune. If he doesn't go to work, he will be scolded later. "It's even worse. Can they hold their heads up in the village again?"
Liu Sanjin sobbed, thinking of the miserable appearance of her son and daughter-in-law lying on the kang without eating or drinking, she felt uncomfortable. When Shen Meng was in charge of the workshop before, no one said anything. Why was the youngest daughter-in-law so angry after being in charge for two days? What's the difference? She really didn't understand.
"What can I say? The fourth son's wife is so thin now. If she wants to go again, the child will definitely have problems. Big brother, please be kind and help me. Mother begs you, can I kneel down for you?"
Lu Zhenping raised his eyebrows, and the look on his face made Liu Sanjin cry. This bastard, he doesn't really want me to kneel down, right? ? ?
"Boss, can you please say something?"
Lu Zhenping frowned and looked at the old couple in front of him. He knew that the fourth brother and his wife should also be watching him from a place he didn't know. If he gave in today, other things would come up in the future, again and again, and there would probably be no end.
Shen Meng hasn't come back yet. Whether she can take over the workshop depends on the results she gets when she comes back from the provincial capital this time.
"What can I say? Let my wife take the blame and let the people in the village scold her. What's the basis?"
"This, aren't we all family? What's wrong with helping out? Besides, the workshop was originally managed by Shen Meng. Isn't she a spoiled brat?"
After Liu Sanjin finished speaking, Lu Zhenping stood up and left. He didn't come here today to hear these.
"Hey, boss, where are you going? We haven't finished talking yet?"
"What are you talking about? How could I not know what the fourth brother and his wife are thinking? Old lady, there is no point in shirking responsibility. You have to bear the consequences of your own actions. They tried to get Shen Meng to stop doing things, and now they see that others don't recognize them and the workshop is ruined. Now they want to push my wife out. You can't do it that way. If you keep this attitude, I think the discussion can only end here."
"Boss, boss, you can't leave. Your father and I have raised you for so many years. Even if we have no merits, we have worked hard. If you really don't care about your brothers and sisters, your father and I will kneel down in front of you. We will really kneel down. If people outside know about this, they will scold you. Boss, aren't you afraid that your reputation and that of your wife will be ruined?"
Liu Sanjin didn't want to force him, but he really couldn't swallow this. How could he, who was once oppressed by Bai Shuyu, now be oppressed by her son? It's unfair, too unfair.
"Money for Shangjing..."
"Don't think of using that to pressure me. I have helped her raise her son for so many years. If she dares not to continue to send money to me, I will definitely find her in Shangjing and let everyone know what kind of person she is."
Lu Zhenping's expression was calm, which made Liu Sanjin and Lu Changzhu a little stunned.
This child, listening to the words that threatened his own mother, didn't move at all, how heartless and cold-hearted!
"Zhenping, you are here, I just came back and heard the children say that you were with your parents, so I hurried to find you. I brought you your favorite meat buns and sweet and sour pork ribs from the state-owned hotel, come home and eat them."
"Okay."
Lu Zhenping's eyes softened instantly when he looked at Shen Meng. The ice and snow melted so quickly that Lu Changzhu and his wife didn't have time to react.
Shen Meng walked to Lu Zhenping's side, took his hand and was about to leave. Zhou Jiaojiao and Lu Jiaxuan, who had been paying attention to the situation in the other room, pushed the door and walked out.
"Brother, sister-in-law, wait a minute, I, we were wrong, really wrong. We really didn't expect the consequences to be so serious. We are all from the same village, so we will meet each other sooner or later. At the beginning, Jiaojiao was just thinking about helping sister-in-law to share the burden and also wanted to help everyone increase some income, but it was just talk. I didn't expect that Hua Auntie and a few others would make a scene. When Jiaojiao found out..."
"Are you so happy?"
Lu Jiaxuan stuttered for a moment because of Shen Meng's sudden question, then smiled awkwardly twice and continued: "Why, how is it possible? Sister-in-law, didn't she come to apologize to you? At the beginning, the two of us were afraid that there would be more trouble in the village, so we thought of taking care of it for two days and returning it to you after it stabilized."
"You didn't expect to make a mistake and ruin the whole workshop?"
Lu Jiaxuan: "........"
You keep finding faults, what else can I say, one by one, no one says a word!
"Sister-in-law, I, I didn't want to do it either, but now there's nothing we can do. Let's just treat the past as the north wind, let it be. We're all family, and I'm young, so please don't take it personally, okay?"
Shen Meng snorted before saying, "The north wind is not easy to deal with, when it blows, the bones are chilled, it's so sad."
Zhou Jiaojiao: "........"
I knew she was hard to talk to, but I didn't expect her to be so hard to talk to! ! !
