During breakfast, Su Yang specifically asked Cao Xiuqin and Uncle Sun about Lu Zheng's father.

"Alas, this is the unpredictable nature of life. Old Lu is also pitiful. His son has been missing for so many years and there has been no news at all. He was injured at a construction site a few years ago and his leg was lame. He also ran into a black-hearted boss who paid more than 30,000 yuan in compensation and didn't care about the aftermath. This 30,000 yuan also included two months' wages for him. Don't you think this is obviously bullying?" Uncle Sun sighed and shook his head.

"Who says it's not true? He has no power or influence, how can he compete with those black-hearted bosses? He can't get any money at all, and he's all alone. He spent 70,000 to 80,000 yuan on hospitalization for his leg injury. Our town donated money to him, but it was only a few thousand yuan, which was not of much use. Later, he returned home because he had no money for treatment. Now he still owes foreign debts and can only sell vegetables every day and live on the minimum living allowance."

Cao Xiuqin also agreed, pouring a cup of tea for Su Yang and Rong Zhan, and sighed: "He is such a miserable person in this life, so pitiful. If Lu Zheng was still here, he wouldn't have to live such a hard life, at least he had a son to rely on. Lu Zheng was so smart when he was young, and he always got first place in every exam. It was obvious that he had a great future. In the end... Hey, how could such a good person just disappear!"

Su Yang lowered her eyes and pursed her lips in silence.

Yes, if Lu Zheng were still alive, his father’s later years would not have been so miserable.

"Uncle Sun, do you know which construction site he was at and which project he was working on?" After a moment of silence, Su Yang continued to ask.

"It seems to be the Qingshi Building in Cangwu City. Do you know it? He was working there as a worker and was injured there."

"Can you find out?" Su Yang glanced at Rong Zhan.

“It’s not difficult.”

With just one look, Rong Zhan knew what she meant. Although he didn't know why she wanted to find out about Lu Zheng's family situation and why she wanted to help him, he still stood up, walked aside, took out his cell phone and called Qin Yu.

"Yangyang, are you... planning to help Lao Lu?" Uncle Sun has seen a lot of people, so he saw Su Yang's intention and asked curiously.

"Well, Uncle Lu was very good to me before I went to the capital, and Lu Zheng also helped me in every way. Now his family is in trouble, and I'm helping him, which can be regarded as repaying his kindness." Su Yang responded softly, with a hint of sharpness in his eyes: "Since that capital is pressuring Uncle Lu's compensation, then we will press his project and let him know what real capital is."

Uncle Huang and Cao Xiuqin looked at each other and realized that the bad temper that Old Lu had accumulated over the past few years could finally be vented.

"There is one more thing I would like to ask Uncle Sun and Aunt Cao, and it is also about Uncle Lu."

As soon as he finished speaking, Rong Zhan came back from the phone call and sat down next to Su Yang again: "If nothing unexpected happens, we will be able to find out in two hours at most. I have already told Qin Yu, he knows what to do."

"good."

After they had breakfast, the rain subsided a little, so Su Yang and Rong Zhan drove to the nearest supermarket and bought some practical oil, rice, noodles and milk. They also had a refrigerator delivered to Lu's house.

The entrance to the Lu family's house was an old-fashioned, shabby wooden door, which was almost the same as what Su Yang remembered from more than ten years ago.

When Rong Zhan saw the scene in the courtyard, he frowned subconsciously, but still moved the things he bought in the car into the courtyard.

Lu Yuan heard the noise and walked out of the house with a cane. His weathered face made him look not like a man in his fifties, but more like a man in his sixties or seventies.

"Who are you? What are you doing?" Lu Yuan looked at the things piled on the ground, feeling a little surprised and confused, and walked over to ask.

"Uncle Lu, do you still remember me? I'm Wen Yang." Su Yang looked at him and couldn't help but think of Lu Zheng's tragic appearance in the morning, and felt a little sour in his heart.

The sense of indebtedness and guilt towards the Lu family deepened.

Lu Yuan looked at her, stunned for a long time, then smiled and nodded: "Oh, it turned out to be Yangyang. I haven't seen you for so many years. You really change a lot when you grow up. I almost don't recognize you."

After a brief greeting, Lu Yuan looked at his dilapidated courtyard and felt he couldn't afford to let them in, so he moved out two broken chairs for them to sit on. He said embarrassedly that he had no tea at home, only ordinary boiled water.

I was also afraid of touching the pain and hurt in his heart.

"It's good to be married. I'm happy to see that you are living such a good life now." After Lu Yuan knew that the strange man next to him was Su Yang's husband, he also smiled and sighed.

But there was obvious sadness between his brows.

If that brat of his was still alive, he could probably become a grandfather too!

Knowing that Su Yang bought so many things for him, including a refrigerator, Lu Yuan was flattered. He kept saying "no" and refused to accept it. Later, Su Yang had no choice but to move Lu Zheng out.

She gave these things to Lu Zheng on the grounds of their childhood friendship.

After hearing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but wipe away his tears.

Whenever he thought of his missing son, he felt extremely heartbroken.

At noon, Lu Yuan wanted to keep the two of them for lunch, but Su Yang, thinking that he had already promised Uncle Huang last night, declined. After giving a few instructions, he went to Huang's house.

Before returning to the capital in the afternoon, she handed over the task of renovating the Lu family's house to Uncle Sun and Uncle Huang, asking them to use the town's name to help the poor, so as to avoid letting Lu Yuan think too much and refuse.

Before she left, Cao Xiuqin and Xie Lingjuan forced a red envelope on her, saying it was a wedding bonus.

I haven't been able to prepare a dowry or anything like that, so I can only use this red envelope to express my gratitude.

Su Yang also refused again and again, but she couldn't get away from them. In the end, Rong Zhan held her arm and said, "Take it. This is also their intention."

Only then did Su Yang accept the two not-so-thick red envelopes.

"If you want to repay them, there are ways to do it. These two red envelopes are a small gift but a big token of affection. If you accept them, they will feel better and it will also reduce the burden on us to help them in the future."

In the car, Rong Zhan saw her looking at the red envelope with a worried look on her face, so he spoke to comfort her.

"Yeah, I know." Su Yang responded calmly, looking at him sideways: "It's just that I find it hard to let go of what happened to the Lu family."

"Don't worry, go back and tell the people below, he won't have a hard time in the future. Old men like this are more concerned about their reputation and are more strong-willed. If you give him money openly, he might think it's charity and hurt his self-esteem. But it's just right to issue it in the name of the town and let the boss who owed him money make up for it."

Su Yang laughed and put the two red envelopes into his bag. The gloom that had been lingering in his heart was dispelled a lot by his words.

"You are more thoughtful."

"That's right." Rong Zhan raised his eyebrows happily: "If your husband is not considerate, then who is? You get up so early in the morning, you should sleep first."
