Chapter 373 The Zheng Family
Upon hearing this, Zheng's father frowned and looked at the timid Er Ya.
They assumed that Lu's father knew about Zheng's mother's plans and deliberately sent Lu Huailin to support Lu's eldest sister.
He turned to Zheng's mother and said, "Don't let Er Ya go yet."
When Zheng's mother heard Zheng's father say that Er Ya was not allowed to take care of her eldest son, her face suddenly turned cold.
A nameless anger welled up inside him, and he turned and slammed the door shut as he left.
Back in the jeep, Lu Huailin's eyes flashed with a mocking smile.
I just don't know what Sister Lu thought when she knew her house was about to be robbed.
Will they continue to switch time to take care of Lu's mother with Brother Lu?
With that thought in mind, Lu Huailin stepped on the gas and headed straight for his mother's place.
When he stepped into the yard, he saw Sister Lu diligently washing the pants that his mother had just taken off.
He took the initiative to greet her, smiling as he said, "Big Sister."
When Sister Lu heard Lu Huailin's voice, she looked up and saw that his hands were empty, and her brows furrowed slightly.
“Huaixu, Mom is paralyzed in bed, it’s fine if you don’t come to see her.”
"You finally come all this way, and you come empty-handed! What kind of son or daughter are you?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Huailin's smile froze on his face.
He glanced coldly at Sister Lu and went straight into Lu's mother's room.
When Lu's eldest sister questioned Lu Huailin, Lu's mother became so angry that her blood boiled.
I think Sister Lu is right. Her youngest son is a cold-blooded animal with a heart of stone.
During the four months I was bedridden, he visited me only a handful of times.
Not only did he not come, but his wife, Gu Yihan, was nowhere to be seen either.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She started yelling and screaming, occasionally hurling insults.
As soon as Lu Huailin entered the house, he saw that his mother's mouth was crooked, and even when she spoke, drool was dripping from her mouth.
He continued to curse, "Unfilial son..."
This shows how deep Lu's mother's hatred for him was at this time.
Lu Huailin carried a stool and pretended not to hear, then walked to his mother's bedside and sat down.
His eyes lowered, their expression unreadable.
"That unfilial son deserves to die..."
Sister Lu, who followed closely behind, heard Lu's mother's continuous and smooth cursing.
A sense of pride welled up inside her, and she said smugly, "See? My careful care has paid off."
"At least Mom's swearing speed is getting faster and faster."
Lu Huailin listened to his mother's curses, each word distinct.
They say he's not human, he's an unfilial son, he deserves to die, he's unfilial and will go to hell after he dies.
He chuckled inwardly, thinking that the way the cursing flowed so smoothly showed that the person had been cursing quite a bit on a regular basis.
I reckon Brother Lu has said a lot of bad things about him to his mother.
Thinking about this, Lu Huailin felt even more that his mother had had too many good days and was unaware of the wickedness of people's hearts.
A casual voice rang out: "Big sister, I heard that your husband Zheng Huan broke his leg."
"Aunt Zheng didn't tell you that she specially found a beautiful young woman in the countryside to serve him personally."
Upon hearing this, Sister Lu was stunned for a moment, thinking she had misheard, and asked again in disbelief.
What did you just say?
Lu Huailin repeated what he had just said in a calm tone.
Then someone said, "That woman is quite pretty, the type that my brother-in-law Zheng Huan likes."
As Sister Lu listened, her face grew paler and paler, and she tried her best to control her wildly beating heart.
She wanted to go back to the Zheng family home and confront her mother-in-law, Zheng Mu.
But her feet felt like they were filled with lead, incredibly heavy.
With each step, she stumbled, trying to calm her panicked emotions and constantly giving herself positive self-talk.
Lu Huailin said that on purpose to provoke her; he just couldn't stand seeing her being nice to Brother Lu.
He wanted to retaliate against himself with such an easily exposed lie.
After several attempts, Sister Lu was finally able to gain a foothold.
Without even saying goodbye to Lu Huailin, he rode his bicycle quickly toward the Zheng family's house.
When Fang Yi and Brother Lu returned, they heard Lu's mother wailing and cursing inside the house.
He frowned and muttered under his breath, "That old hag, why isn't she dead yet?"
Upon hearing this, Brother Lu's face instantly turned cold, and he shouted sternly, "Are you sick in the head?"
Fang Yi raised her eyes and glared at Brother Lu, then retorted sharply, "Did I say something wrong?"
"Given how she eats, drinks, relieves herself, and lies in bed, it would be better if she just died. At least she wouldn't have to suffer!"
Brother Lu's face turned ashen with anger, and he glared at Fang Yi.
He said coldly, "Fool, even if it's just for your mother's pension of forty-odd yuan a month, you should hope she lives a little longer."
Upon hearing this, Lu Huailin's lips curled into a sarcastic smile.
He pushed open the door and walked out, giving Lu Dahou a cold look.
She said softly, "My eldest sister asked me to tell you that she will not be switching her schedule with you to take care of Mom."
After saying that, he didn't even bother to look at the couple again and left.
By the time Brother Lu and Fang Yi realized what was happening, Lu Huailin had already driven away.
"how so?"
"Didn't our comrade switch places with us? How could she suddenly go back on her word!"
Upon hearing this, Brother Lu glanced at Fang Yi and said coldly, "How would I know?"
After saying that, he turned around and went straight back to his room to rest on the bed.
He didn't care about Sister Lu's departure, because it was his wife, Fang Yi, who took care of Lu's mother.
On the other side
Sister Lu stood at the Zheng family's door, took a deep breath, and suppressed the uneasy premonition in her heart.
Suddenly the door was opened.
The Zheng family, who were having lunch, were startled by the sudden sound of Sister Lu opening the door.
When Zheng's mother saw that Lu's hair was disheveled and she was panting, she frowned.
He said coldly, "Look at yourself now, you look like a madman."
At this moment, Sister Lu could no longer hear what her mother was saying; her gaze was fixed on Er Ya, who was sitting next to Zheng's mother.
He demanded sharply, "Who is she?"
Zheng's mother was angered by the attitude in Lu's tone.
Enraged, she slammed her hand on the table and stood up, her eyes filled with resentment. She said coldly, "Who is she? What does it have to do with you?"
Sister Lu was trembling with anger; she finally believed Lu Huailin's words.
Her mother-in-law, Zheng's mother, genuinely wanted another woman to interfere in her marriage with Zheng Huan.
Thinking of this, she strode forward, grabbed Er Ya, and dragged her toward the door.
Er Ya was already feeling guilty and scared, and seeing how domineering and barbaric Sister Lu was, she was so frightened that she clung tightly to the door frame.
With red eyes, she shouted at Zheng's mother, "Aunt Zheng, I don't want to leave."
Before Zheng's mother could answer, Sister Lu went berserk and slapped Er Ya across the face.
He roared, "You little bitch, how dare you steal my man! I'll beat you to death!"
Seeing this, Zheng's mother shouted sternly, "Stop!"
After shouting, she immediately went over and shielded Er Ya behind her.
Sister Lu's slap missed its mark, and she looked up at Zheng's mother's protective manner.
My nose tingled, and tears uncontrollably streamed down my cheeks.
