Chapter 130 Death is like the extinguishing of a lamp
The old man once again saw Lu Chuan through Lu Mingze.
He saw Lu Chuan waving at him just like he was when he was young.
"Uncle, what kind of person is my dad?"
Lu Mingze couldn't help but ask.
The old man thought for a moment before saying, "He is a very good person."
"I value filial piety and family affection, I have a sense of responsibility, I can endure, and I like to suppress myself."
“He’s so nice!”
Hearing him say this, Lu Mingze thought for a moment that he was talking about himself.
It turns out that not only sexual orientation is inherited, but also personality.
"I could say a lot about him, but I'm sick." The old man smiled and said, "I get tired after just a few words."
"If you want to understand him, you can read the diary I wrote when I was young."
"Lingze knows where to put it."
"Okay!" Lu Mingze nodded and raised the envelope in his hand: "Can I see what's inside?"
The old man closed his eyes to indicate yes.
Lu Mingze opened it carefully and found an address and a few letters inside.
It looks like these are the letters they exchanged back then.
"These letters are his relics," the old man explained, "I can only leave these for you."
"The rest, I want to take into the soil."
I think the things they left behind are all related to each other.
Except for these few letters, everything else is about the children. It can be seen how badly the writer, Father Lu, suppressed his emotions.
"I only now believe that my father is really dead." Lu Mingze said.
"Before I saw Lu Lingze, I always thought he ran away with another man."
"I hated him."
The old man smiled: "I hope he can run with me."
"We don't care about secular ethics, other people's eyes, or family responsibilities."
“We only have eyes for each other.”
"I suggested it once, but he disagreed."
"He lived a happy life before he met me, but became unhappy after he met me."
"Every step he takes from now on is involuntary."
"Until the moment he passed away, he told me that he was finally free."
The ones who are really suffering are the living.
Lu Mingze remembered that Lu Lingze had told him that the old man in front of him had his hair turned white overnight after his father died.
He looked at the old man's gray hair with mixed feelings.
"He..." Lu Mingze asked softly, "Where was he buried?"
The old man's eyes moved to the piece of paper with the address in his hand: "It's right there."
"When I die, you can move his grave."
"Buried with your mother."
Lu Mingze asked: "What about you, uncle?"
"Me?" The old man paused, as if thinking, and then said after a moment: "When a person dies, it is like a light going out."
"I have occupied his ashes for so many years, it is time to return them to your mother."
The old man's words were somewhat incoherent, and Lu Mingze thought he was just confused due to illness, so he didn't take it seriously.
Lu Mingze opened the envelope thinking that it contained the huge fortune that Lu Lingze had mentioned.
When he came here, he thought that if there really was property, he would definitely not want it.
He had to refuse in person.
Unexpectedly, the result surprised him.
This is good, so he doesn't have to say those words.
"Move the grave. It will be more convenient for you to worship in the future." The old man looked at Lu Mingze and said.
Lu Mingze thought about his mother’s condition before her death, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded.
A smile flashed in the old man's eyes: "Child, say one more word."
"You and your partner, this road ahead is going to be bumpy."
"Have you really decided?"
Lu Mingze: "No matter what the result is, I want to try."
The old man said, "It's good to have momentum."
"Now that you have made the decision, live bravely for once."
"Life is short, don't make yourself too tired."
Lu Mingze nodded.
The old man closed his eyes with relief: "I'm so tired, I want to sleep for a while."
This was almost the end of the conversation, Lu Mingze stood up: "Then you go to sleep, I'm going out."
The old man didn't say anything and seemed to fall into a deep sleep in a second.
Lu Mingze walked out quietly.
Qin Zhang's voice was heard scolding Lu Lingze from the kitchen: "Idiot! You're so slow even in picking vegetables. We'll probably starve to death while you're cooking."
Lu Lingze was unhappy: "If you can do it, go ahead. I have been doing this for so many years."
"I don't believe you are Mingze's brother at all." Qin Zhang sneered: "Mingze is not as useless as you."
Lu Lingze was furious: "It's up to you whether you believe it or not. The relationship between us two brothers is clear."
"You damn homosexual, was my brother seduced by you?"
"I'll tell him later not to be with you."
Qin Zhang: "Then you can try it."
"My wife listens to you or me."
Lu Lingze was so angry that he jumped up and down: "My brother is the one below?"
"Qin Zhang, you are nothing."
Lu Mingze felt his face turn red when he heard what happened outside. He walked into the kitchen and saw Qin Zhang was cooking while Lu Lingze was busy washing the vegetables.
Qin Zhang was in a hurry, but Lu Lingze was not in a hurry.
"After all, I'm a guest at your house, but you didn't even prepare a good meal for me. How rude." Qin Zhang shook the pot twice.
"If you're polite, come with my brother." Lu Lingze rolled his eyes.
"Um..." Lu Mingze said, "Do you want my help?"
Qin Zhang's expression changed in an instant, he stopped and walked in front of Lu Mingze: "It's too fumes here, go sit outside for a while, you can eat soon."
Seeing this, Lu Lingze almost tore the vegetables in his hands to pieces.
He dropped the vegetable leaves and squeezed in front of the two people: "Mingze, listen to my advice, don't be with this scheming man."
"Well..."
Lu Mingze felt a little uncomfortable with Lu Lingze's sudden intimacy.
Took a step back.
Seeing Qin Zhang's face darken, he looked as if he wanted to cut Lu Lingze into pieces.
Lu Mingze curled his lips and said, "I'm hungry. Can we talk about this after we finish eating?"
"Dinner will be served soon."
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhang and Lu Lingze went into the kitchen in tacit understanding and started working again.
Lu Mingze sat in the living room and read the letters in his hand again.
Every word in the letter reveals Lu Chuan's love and responsibility for the children.
He started laughing as he watched.
I don’t know how long it took, but the food prepared by Qin Zhang and Lu Lingze was gradually served on the table.
Lu Lingze invited his younger brother to the table to eat, and went to the room to ask his father's opinion.
Lu Mingze sat at the table, waiting for Lu Lingze to come over.
But after waiting for a long time, no one showed up.
After a while, Lu Mingze heard Lu Lingze's suppressed crying coming from the inner room.
Lu Mingze trembled and looked at Qin Zhang.
Obviously, Qin Zhang heard it too.
The two exchanged glances, then stood up and went to the inner room.
Inside the house, Lu Lingze knelt on the ground and threw himself on his father, crying bitterly.
The old man who was speaking just now was already silent.
There was still a faint smile on his lips, and he passed away peacefully.
