"Father, you...you actually hit me!"
Lu Zhengnan froze on the spot, his angry expression turning blank, his pupils dilating to their limit as he stared at Old Master Lu in disbelief.
She immediately raised her hand, touched her left cheek where she had been slapped, and suddenly screamed, "Ahhhhh..."
Lu Zhengnan's emotions completely erupted.
"I've wanted to hit you for a long time. If you cause any more trouble, get out and go back to your Shen family!"
Grandpa Lu withdrew his hand, which had just struck his daughter, and his voice was stern.
Du Lan and Wu Chanjuan also showed incredulous expressions. The two sisters-in-law had been married into the Lu family for more than ten years.
This second sister-in-law comes to her parents' home to cause trouble from time to time; they've gotten used to it.
This is the first time I've ever seen the old man hit Lu Zhengnan.
Lu Zhengjing's brow twitched, and his lips parted slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't.
Lu Zhengren's expression was somewhat complicated.
His second sister had indeed gone too far. He walked over and stood behind Grandpa Lu, afraid that his father might get sick from anger.
Lu Yiyang and Lu Zeyang stared wide-eyed, their eyes wide with surprise, and a hint of excitement flashed across their faces. They quietly retreated to a corner and began whispering to each other.
When I was little, I didn't understand why my second aunt would always make a fuss whenever she came to our house, usually over the smallest things.
She was even more unreasonable than the kids. Now, my second aunt has finally been disciplined by my grandfather!
Wu Chanjuan seemed to have noticed, and feigning anger, she glanced at them and said: "You two be careful, don't add fuel to the fire!"
She then quietly walked over to her sister-in-law, Du Lan, and muttered, "My second sister-in-law must be completely dumbfounded..."
"Second sister..."
Old Master Lu Zhengde felt a pang of pity and wanted to go forward to comfort her.
Despite being extremely angry with Old Master Lu, he calmly stopped him with his gaze.
In this family, it was the eldest son and himself who spoiled their daughter into having that kind of personality.
Today, Old Master Lu made up his mind to teach her a lesson. He watched his daughter go crazy with indifference.
"No, why would I go back? This is my home too!"
Lu Zhengnan is a very interesting person. She is not the kind of person who would run away or hide and cry if she was beaten.
She stood in the middle of the living room, stomping her feet and patting her legs, acting crazy and wailing.
After a while, she realized that no one was paying attention to her. She looked up and saw that everyone was quietly watching her act crazy!
A surge of shame and anger welled up inside her, especially when she realized that Chen Xihua seemed to be watching a show. Suddenly, she couldn't hold back her hysteria!
But he still had a long face, his eyes fixed on Chen Xihua.
Chen Xihua initially frowned slightly, feeling somewhat unhappy about being scolded.
On the way here, Lu Zhengjing had told her about the Lu family, and he had specifically mentioned his second sister.
However, seeing Lu Zhengnan's change in expression just now, she suddenly felt like laughing.
This is just a spoiled, over-the-top child in his forties or fifties, someone who is always favored and therefore fearless.
She's not even as good as her sixth child. When the sixth child was little, he knew to read her eye.
Lu Zhengnan initially went to the countryside to replace his older brother, who was born prematurely and was in poor health, and felt that he had done a great service when he returned.
In particular, she herself suffered a difficult childbirth and damaged her health!
She even felt that the whole world owed her something.
It's a bit like a period drama coming to life.
Lu Zhengnan and Shen Jianping are supporting male and female characters, while Feng Lanjiao is the female lead.
Indeed, Chen Xihua believes that Feng Lanjiao is the epitome of a 'winner in life'.
Lu Zhengnan and Shen Jianping were two educated youths who came from a compound in Beijing.
A lovestruck, arrogant heiress, after going to the countryside with a high-ranking official's son, falls for Feng Lanjiao, the village chief's daughter.
The haughty heiress is arrogant and spoiled, looking down on country folk and displaying her superiority at every turn.
The village chief's daughter is scheming, jealous, and envious, and wants to stand out from the crowd.
The male supporting character, Shen, was ungrateful, so the female lead sowed discord between him and the female supporting character, almost causing the female supporting character to have a difficult childbirth.
The female lead eventually gets together with the male lead, Liu Hao, and marries into the Liu family, one of the three major families in Beijing.
With two sons and a daughter, she's definitely a winner in life.
After that, the female supporting character tried to cause trouble for the female lead all the way.
He picks fights with the female lead in various ways, trying to get revenge, and even tries to get her family involved to help him.
If it were any of the third generation of the Liu family, Zhou Zheng would be more likely to awaken to the truth.
If the rest of the Lu family were a little more brain-dead, the Lu family would be doomed.
The supporting female character goes crazy, the female lead gets rich, and the series ends!
Lu Zhengjing might be the main villain in the entire series!
Hahaha!
Subconsciously, she thought of another comic book story, and Chen Xihua smiled.
"Xi Hua, how about I take you home?"
Lu Zhengjing asked tentatively, and seeing her fluctuating emotions, he assumed she was unhappy because of what her second sister had just said.
His entire demeanor became somber.
"No need!" Chen Xihua pushed his arm to indicate that she was fine.
She hoped that her second sister would say something else.
Such a person is like a child who throws a tantrum when their parents refuse to give them candy.
Judging from Grandpa Lu's expression, he also wanted to wake up his daughter, who had been self-centered for so many years!
In fact, Lu Zhengnan probably knew the truth, but he pretended not to know and acted like a fool.
Taking advantage of the Lu family's long-standing sense of indebtedness towards her, she did whatever she pleased.
"Hmph, she's definitely not going to leave. Right now, she'd love to cling to you!"
Lu Zhengnan spoke angrily, saying that she hated Chen Xihua because she had been beaten up because of her!
Grandpa Lu had completely lost his temper, and he was looking at the young lady from the Chen family with great interest.
He suddenly realized that he had been blinded by his own involvement.
In the past, whenever his daughter had a problem, he, as her father, would only say a few words in a mild tone.
Spoiled and pampered, without any real scolding or beating, the daughter became increasingly unruly, or the more you talked to her, the more enthusiastic and self-righteous she became.
Just like performing in a play, the daughter wanted more attention to be focused on her.
His approach was wrong; he should have just gone straight to the point and taught the person a lesson.
Or just ignore her and let her perform her own show.
If no one pays attention to her, she will feel that it is meaningless.
A person in their forties or fifties is not a child, and can be taught from scratch; she is not ignorant.
After thinking it through, Old Master Lu, supported by his fifth brother, sat back down in his chair. He was calm and composed, and no longer angry.
"Mr. Lu, there are some things I want to say to your daughter. I hope you won't mind!" Chen Xihua asked, seeing that he had calmed down.
Although she doesn't weigh 100 pounds and have a rebellious streak, she does have half a rebellious streak.
What will happen in the future is another matter. If Master Lu really can't live without her, then she will have to maintain contact with the Lu family for a long time.
My mother, Li Yumei, is usually so unreasonable that I would argue with her until she had nothing to say. It's impossible that she wouldn't react at all when someone points a finger at her and insults her.
However, since I was in someone else's home and just a guest, I asked the host first.
"Alright, go ahead!" Old Master Lu agreed with great interest.
Everyone in the compound knows what kind of person their daughter is, so there's really nothing to hide. Besides, Chen Xihua isn't exactly an outsider anymore.
The rest of the Lu family members perked up and stared intently at Chen Xihua and Lu Zhengnan.
The Lu family members themselves were at a loss as to what to do about this married-out daughter; they could only wait and see what the seventh son's partner would say.
Chen Xihua cleared her throat: "Miss Lu, our Chen family does have some ulterior motives. When dating, we need to consider the other person's family background, especially the mother-in-law's character."
On behalf of my older sister, I want to thank your family for not marrying her.
Thank you for opposing your son's relationship with my older sister back then, which allowed my older sister to "climb" into a better husband's family.
Last year, my eldest sister married into the Zheng family, the same family your daughter-in-law, Li Hualin, married into.
The eldest son of the Zheng family is my sister's husband.
I've met my eldest sister's mother-in-law, Aunt Zheng.
She was kind and very good to my older sister, saying that she would be satisfied with anything my brother-in-law liked.
As for whether or not I have a relationship with Master Lu…
